As a mage, I just want to pursue the truth

Chapter 47 Apple Traditional Pie
"Mr. Cook, I would like to ask whether the new products that Apple will release this fall will really include brain-computer connection models as advertised?" The CNN reporter went straight to the point after a brief greeting.

Cook: "Yes, brain-computer connection is an incredible technology. It once seemed so far away, but it is really here now."

"Some models of the iPhone 13 series will be equipped with brain-computer connection function. We have designed many incredible functions for it. I believe this will be an epoch-making product."

Every mobile phone manufacturer obtains the same patent licenses and technologies, but different manufacturers have different aesthetics and technical reserves, and the functions they design for brain-computer connections will also differ.

There is no doubt that among many mobile phone manufacturers, Apple has the deepest technical reserves and the best aesthetics.

Therefore, Apple’s autumn press conference every year is the most watched in the technology circle. Before Huawei was banned, the attention to Huawei’s spring and autumn press conferences was once close to the level of Apple’s press conference.

The CNN reporter continued to ask: "It is rumored that the brain-computer connection phone will only be sold in Greater China. Is this true? And what is the reason?"

Cook: "This is true, because the brain-computer connection technology was developed by a Chinese company. Their technology currently only has a 99 percent recognition rate for Chinese speakers."

"If you don't know Chinese, the recognition rate is only about 70 percent. In addition, we found that if you were born in America, even if you learned Chinese, the recognition rate of brain-computer connection would not reach 99 percent."

"We have not yet understood even one percent of the mysteries of the human brain. We have no idea what kind of impact the language environment in which a person grows up will have on his or her thinking and cognitive systems."

"But from the perspective of brain-computer connection technology, growing up in different languages ​​will have a great impact on people, so that the same meaning will be reflected by different neural signals."

"In addition, our new iPhone with brain-computer connection function will also be sold in small quantities in other parts of the world, but the recognition rate will not meet everyone's expectations."

Cook is very frank. As the CEO of a multinational giant like Apple, he cannot say the wrong thing. Being honest is the best way.

Maybe he says that the technology is not mature yet and uses China as a test site, and will sell it in Europe and the United States after the technology matures. This may please American users, but he can't and doesn't know how to do it.

For interviews like Cook's, he must have reviewed the manuscript repeatedly beforehand, and every content of his interview would be reviewed.

The CNN reporter asked: "Is this Chinese technology?"

Cook: "Yes, this is technology from a Chinese company called Kechuang Biotechnology. The endorphins that are now popular on the market are produced by this company."

After the effect of endorphins in reducing addiction was proven, the Maple Leaf Country was the first to announce that it would provide free medical services and drugs to addicts to reduce the addiction of morphine-like drugs.

A side effect of endorphins is that duping is becoming increasingly popular among young people in the United States and America. Anyway, it can be cured, so why not enjoy it while you are young?

A Democratic lawmaker in America has suggested that we should learn from the Maple Leaf Country and provide free endorphins to drug addicts for treatment.

Cook continued, "The founder of Kechuang Bio is a young man who published in Nature at the age of 18. I have talked to him many times. He is a young man with his own ideas."

What Cook said was nonsense. He only had a remote video chat with Zheng Li once, not many times as he said.

The CNN reporter was obviously not interested in Zheng Li, or he should have continued to ask questions related to Apple phones as agreed beforehand:

"Mr. Cook, I would like to ask English-speaking users, when will they be able to use brain-computer connected phones with a recognition rate of up to 99%?"

Cook replied: "We will work closely with Sinovation Biotech. I believe it will happen very soon, but I can't give you a specific time." "Maybe next year, maybe the year after."

The latter sentence is purely to trick fans, making them think that it will be next year, and then release some news through digital self-media from time to time, just like the iPhone SE2 and the new iPad mini.

The CNN reporter asked: "In addition, I would like to know what Apple thinks about the application of brain-computer connection? Brain-computer connection technology should not be limited to operating mobile phones, right?"

Cook raised his hands, imitating Jobs' classic gesture:
"Of course not. Brain-computer connection is one of the greatest technologies of the 21st century. Its application range is far beyond people's imagination. Brain-computer connection mobile phone is just a small application aspect of it."

"We will deeply integrate brain-computer connection technology with AirPods and integrate it into all Apple products, including iPads and iMacs."

"People only need a brain-computer connection device to use all Apple products smoothly."

"The more important point is that Apple will integrate brain-computer connection technology with iWatch, and the iPhone will realize new health monitoring and tracking functions from more dimensions."

“As well as providing users with auxiliary medical functions.”

After Cook's interview was widely reported by the media, it did not spark much discussion in America, except for a few curses from Apple fans:

"Cook is making big promises again."

“The classic will be available next year.”

"Cook is so mediocre compared to Jobs."

Instead, it has sparked widespread discussion in China. After Apple and CStone Biotechnology signed the contract, CStone Biotechnology's brain-computer connection technology will be implemented on all current first-tier mobile phone brands.

More importantly, this is a monopoly technology owned by Chinese companies.

In addition, recently, when Kechuang Bio was about to go public, Cheng Gang was having a meeting with the heads of CICC, CITIC, and CITIC Construction Investment, and they all joked;
"Mr. Cheng, we have to help Sinovation Bio go public as soon as possible. The leaders of the China Securities Regulatory Commission were asking our senior leaders a few days ago, asking why CICC is doing so slowly in the listing process."

"Yes, everyone regards Sinovation Biotech as the largest unicorn company to be listed on the Science and Technology Innovation Board and even on the Shenzhen and Shanghai Stock Exchanges this year. Everyone is a little impatient."

Cheng Gang said helplessly: "Recently, there are securities firms that want to come to us for research every day. Basically, every securities firm in the country has found us and asked us when the road show before listing will be held? Will Mr. Zheng participate?"

"And be sure to give them a ticket when the time comes."

The heads of securities firms at the meeting said:
"It's not just the securities firms. People from fund companies are asking us for information on Kechuang Biotechnology every day. They want to write research reports."

"Yes, including our fund department is also doing research reports."

"Once Kechuang Bio is listed, its significance to the Science and Technology Innovation Board will be like that of CATL to the Growth Enterprise Market and that of Moutai to the Main Board. It is destined to be a leader as soon as it is listed."
