The threat from these original Android manufacturers is the most worrying reason Tim Cook is at the moment. ●⌒, Fortunately, Microsoft's strict defense of the prince's smartphone system has made the mobile phones of these Android manufacturers unable to form a complete data closed circle with personal computers, and Apple is still in an advantage in this regard.

However, with Microsoft's current situation, it probably won't last long. After all, the trend of the prince's smart system is here, so Microsoft has to take into account the feelings of customers. The negative impact caused by win10 has not completely dissipated yet. If you continue to act so blatantly against the prince's smart phone system, it will have a great impact on the company's reputation.

So the problem facing Apple now is their previous slogan, innovation! Only innovation can retain original customers to the greatest extent. So the cooperation project plan on his desktop is very touched.

The plan was initiated by Apple's partner Datang Crown Technology, which invited Apple to join the research and development of a new generation of smartphones. The plan mentioned that the upcoming version of the Crown smartphone system has added the concept of a 3D virtual screen in the mobile phone. As long as hardware matching the system is developed, the display of the mobile phone is not limited to the size of the screen, or even the screen, and can produce 3D effects. If it can be combined with Apple's 3D gesture control technology, the next generation of smartphones will be able to completely subvert the entire mobile Internet market.

More importantly, according to the plan, the most difficult part of this technology has been overcome. There are only some minor problems left to continue to be developed and will be launched within half a year. In fact, Apple has similar technologies under development, but it will obviously take some time before the results are achieved, and it will be impossible to go public within at least five years.

Of course, if you want to join this alliance, Apple naturally cannot give nothing. First, it has to share their 3D gesture control technology with other manufacturers; secondly, it has to help Datang Zizi chips obtain two tinsan nxt 1950i lithography machines produced by Asmay, the Netherlands.

The second condition is that Tim Cook feels that there is no big problem. Although this kind of lithography machine used to produce key scales below 38nm integrated circuits is a technology-restricted export product, it is not a very critical technology now. As long as Datang Crown Technology is willing to pay enough price and think of a way to transfer it through a third-party country, it can always be obtained. After all, ASMA can reduce the key size to below 10nm and the nxe series has almost been developed successfully. All of them have begun to accept reservations, and the nxt series seems less important.

The key lies in Apple's 3D gesture control technology. Apple has spent more than three years to study this technology and has spent more than one billion US dollars. Now it is time to share this technology with the alliance's Huawei and Xiaomi. Tim Cook is really reluctant. Isn't this creating a competitor for itself?

However, if this 3D virtual screen technology is really as stated in the document of Datang Crown Technology, it will be effective within half a year, and Apple will be really passive. With the performance shown by Crown smartphone system, with the future upgrade of mobile phone hardware and the virtual screen technology, there are too many things to do. Even a mobile phone with high-end hardware is completely replaceable and becomes a real mobile PC.

Think about it, when a mobile phone does not need to switch back and forth, you can play games and watch naked 3D movies while playing games, and you will not even be interrupted by sudden calls and are forced to be interrupted. All files only need to be saved on your mobile phone, because the mobile phone you carry with you can be used like a PC at any time after plugging in an external device, and you don’t even need to connect to a monitor…

If it is equipped with three-d gesture control technology and even external mouse and keyboard, it can directly operate virtually on the pictures on the phone. Needless to say, this prospect is too detailed, Tim Cook can imagine how much impact this will have on the entire smartphone market.

If it weren't for the plan of Datang Crown Technology that brought two Chinese smartphone manufacturers with them, Tim Cook would probably agree directly without thinking. Fortunately, there was no Apple's current biggest competitor, Samsung Electronics, in this plan, otherwise Tim Cook would probably have a more headache at this time.

Now he is waiting for a feedback from the technical department. This plan contains a accompanying technical information. According to Datang Crown Technology, the Apple Technology Department should be able to use this information to determine whether their technology is as stated in the plan, and it already has the ability to make this technology available in the near future.

This information has been given to the Technical Department for almost a day to analyze, and the results should be almost out. As expected, Tim Cook was planning to take the initiative to ask the secretary about the situation in the Technical Department, and the secretary informed him that Apple's Bed Technical Director, Townsend Kepler, had arrived outside his office.

After the technical director walked into the office, the first sentence made Tim Cook even more entangled.

"It is obvious that the Chinese have indeed mastered the key technologies of 3D virtual screens. What is slightly different from our research direction is that they cleverly combine laser and holographic projection technology, which also makes this technology more practical. According to our estimates, the core technologies they master are at least ten years ahead of us."

"Ten years?" Tim Cook frowned, "I remember at the last new technology briefing, based on your report, we can apply the virtual screen technology of holographic projection to the new iPhone in up to five years?"

"It's different. As I said just now, the screen we virtually produces is just a pseudo-3D, whether it's a vertical screen or a horizontal screen. In fact, it's always on a plane, but the Chinese people have different techniques. They can really make every picture and even icon on the mobile phone screen three-dimensional. In line with the control of gestures, we can even hold up an icon in the future."

Townsend Kepler seemed to emphasize his meaning, and even reached out to grab it. Then, as if he felt that his expression was not clear enough, he continued: "Or I would like to talk about the image, have you seen Iron Man? The virtual projection operation images of Robert Downey Jr. in his high-tech room will become a reality because of this technology. This is the 3D virtual screen technology of the Chinese people."

"Okay, I understand!" Tim Cook nodded without saying a word, then looked at the time, switched and pressed the call button on the desktop, "Alice, help me eleven hours later, remember to remind me to call Mr. Wang of Datang Crown Technology." (To be continued.)
