Chapter 1520 (1/2)
”Endocrine disorders' deprive 'the body of the proteins it uses to keep it healthy?”
Andy shakes his head and laughs. It's hard to open his eyes and make nonsense for jobs. He knows that jobs's cancer has begun to spread and his life clock has begun to count down.
But jobs had to lie, because his health problem is really a big news, which can cause industry concern and affect the market of apple and even Silicon Valley.
For more than half a year, jobs's haggard face and weight loss have sparked speculation about his health.
Rumors are flying all over the world. Recently, he decided not to attend some important exhibitions, which led to a sharp fall in Apple's stock price.
Just today, as he came out to clarify that he was suffering from a minor hormone imbalance, Apple shares began to soar.
This kind of influence is really impressive.
In fact, it is not unreasonable for jobs' health to affect the hearts of Americans.
From iPod music player to the latest 3G version of crazy mobile phone, every new product of apple can set off a global Xing consumption boom, and its product image even becomes a symbol of fashion.
All these are inseparable from jobs's efforts and perseverance. As the soul of apple, even Andy has to admit that he has become the spiritual idol of the whole IT industry.
So it's normal for people to care about jobs' health. His health problems will also be a barometer of Apple's stock market.
However, in Andy's view, people's excessive attention to jobs' health also reflects the current helpless situation in Silicon Valley.
In the past decades, Silicon Valley, which has been leading the global information technology innovation, has been facing the crisis of innovation and vitality due to its short thinking and unwillingness to take risks.
Now in Silicon Valley, there are many entrepreneurs who dare to rely on the pieced together things to attract attention with gimmicks and hype and sell advertisements without capital or technology. The ultimate goal is to sell the company at a good price. Rather than trying to build a truly valuable enterprise through long-term efforts.
Well, when Andy first wanted to build the wasp app, he really planned to make a good effort to sell it at a good price.
He is not so much an entrepreneur as a businessman. There are not many it entrepreneurs who are cultivated as children by enterprises.
Look, even Andy started out with this kind of plan. You can imagine how many people in Silicon Valley are short-sighted and ambitious.
In short, Silicon Valley has fewer and fewer industry heroes with vision.
Especially at Intel, Microsoft's soul figures have retreated to the second tier. After Yahoo's Yang Zhiyuan was kicked out, many people put their hopes on jobs, the old hero, to wake up the innovation ability of Silicon Valley.
At this time, jobs actually had a health problem. If he had any problems, he would naturally be regarded as an important blow to the Silicon Valley industry.
It has not been a year or two for Silicon Valley to face these problems, which have existed for many years, but the current economic recession makes the problem more serious.
The American people hope that jobs will be able to turn the tide. So with the continuous introduction of crazy mobile phones and the advent of iPad, jobs has been worshipped.
However, Andy is certain that the next few years will be Jobs's era, the last light of his life, and indeed will be brilliant.
I think he is always proud and arrogant. He asks every apple employee to worship himself. If he doesn't like it, he will be fired immediately. He will enjoy the worship of fans all over the world!
