Chapter 336 Chapter 352: Someone must take the blame

After Eve Jobs sent such a tweet, Cook can be said to have been condemned verbally by netizens, and his reputation fell directly to the bottom in the hearts of the people of the Beacon Country.

In a blink of an eye the time came to 02:30.

Five people who can decide the fate of Cook as CEO came to the conference room of Fruit Headquarters.

Cook was placed at the bottom of the table like a prisoner.

As the largest shareholder, Thomas Ebsen sat directly at the chair of the meeting.

Cook sat in the bottom seat and felt uneasy because he knew that if today's meeting was not handled well, his career would be over.

"I believe everyone already knows the reason for this emergency meeting." Thomas Ebson finished speaking and glanced at the other four board members present.

The four board members also nodded.

Not to mention whether Thomas Ebsen notified them before convening them.

It's very hard for them not to know that this matter has become such a big deal.

"Cook, you abused your power and caused the company's reputation to be damaged and the stock price to drop. Do you have anything to explain?" Thomas Ebsen asked with his fingers crossed on the table.

"That video is fake. Shay and I didn't do anything like that. I only met Shay once in 30 days.

The time to meet is this morning.

Because they traced the user data leakage to me.

That's why Shay came to my office. "Cook replied very calmly.

"Let's not say whether this video is true or not, how do you plan to calm this matter next?

It is useless for us to believe in you. The public must believe in you and the market must believe in you, otherwise it will affect the company's stock price. asked Thomas Ebsen.

Since Cook dared to say this, it means that Cook did not lie to them. After all, there are traces of everything. Just check the surveillance and you will know.

"The time is too short. I haven't thought of a solution yet. As long as the board of directors believes in me and gives me a week, I will definitely be able to solve this problem." Cook replied.

"We are willing to give you time, but the market is unwilling to give you time, and some of your decisions make us feel very confused.

Hope you can explain it to us.

For example, why do you sign a huge order with Qualcomm.

Is the company's self-developed chips uncompetitive?

In addition, why do you want to use your relationship to prevent Deep Blue Technology from obtaining chips.

Originally, the technology of Deep Blue Technology was only used by themselves, and the fruit had only one enemy to face.

But due to your various tricks, Deep Blue was forced to license the technology.

The fruit company has to face countless enemies with deep blue technology.

Do you think the company has the means to face so many enemies? "Thomas Ebsen asked sharply.

“Deep Blue is already eroding the market share of fruit, if I don’t take corresponding measures to deal with it.

All the fruit market share will be taken away by Deep Blue Technology. ” Cook retorted.

"Cook, only technology can defeat technology. Do you think Deep Blue can be stopped using these small means?

Your means will only hasten the demise of the fruit.

Didn't you think about it when you were doing these things? asked Vincent Press.

He is from State Street Capital Management.

Cook was speechless. He really hadn't thought about this issue. At that time, he just wanted to limit the development of Deep Blue.

"What a mindless stupid thing."

“Cook’s ability is only suitable for leading a company without competition, and the emergence of Deep Blue has completely exposed his shortcomings.

I suggest that someone else lead the fruit. "

"I have long said that this intersex person is not suitable to be a CEO.

You believe it now. "

His blood surged when he heard others calling him intersex.

At this moment, he really wanted to hit the director on the back of the head with a brick.

Really angry that he can't do it.

"I think Cook is no longer suitable for the position of CEO, and I suggest someone more capable to manage the fruit." Vincent Press said.

"I agree."

"I agree."

"I agree."

Except for Thomas Ebsen after Vincent Presti replaced the CEO.

The other four directors immediately voted in favor.

With four votes out of five, the general situation is basically irreversible, and Cook also knows that his career is over.

"Cook, you can leave, go back and pack up and prepare for the handover. Next, we will discuss who will take over." Thomas Ebson said.

As a wage earner, Cook could only leave the meeting room with a dark face.

After Cook left, Thomas Ebson asked: "Do you have any suitable candidates?"

"I propose that Bernie Ebbers temporarily take over as CEO. He has served as COO for many years, and his ability must be seen by all directors.

Apart from him, I don’t have any good candidates here. If you have any good candidates, you can put them forward for your reference. ” said Vincent Price.

Thomas Ebsen agreed to the proposal after Vincent Price proposed it.

Soon Bernie Albers was called into the conference room.

The moment he came to the conference room, he smiled brightly.

After he sat down, Thomas Ebsen asked: "Bernie, how do you think the company should deal with the next problem?"

Although everyone agrees that he will take over the position of CEO, it is necessary to know how he can solve the current problems. It is impossible to get the approval of other directors if he does not have the strength.

"I just investigated what happened today. According to the evidence I have obtained so far, it is indeed not Cook who did it. According to my guess, it is very likely that Deep Blue did it.

But we have no evidence to prove that it was made by Deep Blue, so someone must take the responsibility.

Otherwise, we have no way to explain it to the public and shareholders, so I plan to blame this matter on Cook. This will also cover up the security issues of the iOS system.

This method is the plan that the Announcement Department came up with after discussion," Bernie Ebbers said without hesitation.

Although they found out through internal monitoring that Cook did not do this, but they believe it internally is useless, even if the police believe it is useless.

The public and stock investors will not believe this.

After hearing what Bernie Albers said, several directors discussed in low voices, and finally everyone agreed to Bernie Albers's proposal.

It is most appropriate for Cook to take the blame for this matter.

Why not blame this matter on Deep Blue Technology?

Because they have no evidence, the public will not believe without evidence, although the public is very stupid, but they only believe in facts with evidence.

In addition, they can also divert attention and divert the public's attention to Cook.

Neil Ebbers: We admit that this matter was done by Cook, and there is no problem with our system, but all this is Cook's personal behavior and has nothing to do with the fruit company.
