The reason why Musk felt desperate was that the Daqian mobile phone had completely crushed the mobile phone industry in terms of technology.
To produce an advanced personal terminal, a variety of advanced parts were needed, such as memory strips, fingerprint recognition units, and so on. However, these top technologies were all in the hands of the Daqian.
No company could come up with the same technology.
What was even more frightening was that even if a company could come up with such technology in the future, the Daqian had already stockpiled more powerful technologies.
As a business secretary, Musk didn't have access to many confidential information. However, according to Musk's understanding, the Daqian had already stockpiled a technology called flexible screen, which could bend the screen anytime and anywhere.
There was also facial recognition technology, which could directly unlock the mobile phone through facial recognition.
Musk also vaguely received a piece of extremely confidential information, which was that the Daqian was developing stereoscopic projection technology, which was described in movies. It directly projected a three-dimensional image of an object into the air for a comprehensive inspection.
As a technical expert, Musk certainly understood how difficult such technology was. The Daqian had already mastered these technologies, but they kept it a secret. The purpose was to always maintain the absolute technological lead in mobile phones.
Take the launch of the mphone 5 as an example. Some people said that the mphone's technological lead was coming to an end. However, the mphone 5 proved them wrong with nine innovations. In the future, the Daqian would reveal these technologies from time to time in order to maintain the technological advancement of the mphone series. Then, other manufacturers would never be able to defeat the Daqian with mobile phones.
Not to mention, the Daqian had mastered the advanced mobile phone chips, the most advanced photolithography machine, and so on. The Daqian's strength in the entire electronics field was irreversible. Musk established a mobile phone company and had no problem fighting in the mobile phone industry.
However, it was impossible to defeat the Daqian mobile phone and obtain the position of the Daqian mobile phone.
This discovery made Musk very desperate. At this moment, Musk was a little confused. He even thought of continuing to be a business secretary in the Daqian. Anyway, the salary was very good. Cook also discovered Musk's ability and intended to train Musk to be his successor.
In May 2010, Musk, who had only been in the company for seven months, was directly promoted by Cook to be one of his personal secretaries.
This position had a high status in the company. After all, it was difficult not to have direct contact with the company's top leader.
However, at the same time, this position didn't require qualifications, because the job of an exclusive secretary was to serve a leader. The leader had the absolute right to appoint the position and didn't need to go through the various promotion mechanisms within the Daqian. This was the secret of a newcomer who had been in the company for seven months.
According to what Cook told Musk in private, he would soon have a very important decision to announce in the future. Once this news was announced, Cook might be forced to retire. At that time, he hoped that Musk could be the next president of the Daqian mobile phone company because he saw an unimaginable huge potential in Musk.
This result made Musk dumbfounded. He joined the Daqian mobile phone company to understand the secrets of the mobile phone industry and then build a company that could defeat the Daqian mobile phone company. He didn't want to continue to be the president of the Daqian mobile phone company!
However, being the president of the Daqian mobile phone company seemed to be a pretty good choice … Whenever Musk thought of this, he would shake his head vigorously and throw this dangerous idea out of his mind.
Who was he? He was Musk. How could he give 996 yuan to others?
The most important thing was that Cook's gaze felt a little strange, which made Musk, a straight man, feel a little creepy.
Just when Musk's mind was in a mess and he didn't know how to move forward, Cook suddenly called Musk into his office.
"I have to go to Europe for a business trip in a few days. I can't leave at all. You are now very familiar with the operation of the company. As my representative, you are responsible for receiving the chairman!" Cook said faintly.
"What? I have to receive the chairman!" Musk was shocked!
"Yes!" Cook nodded. "This time, the chairman came to our headquarters to inspect the work, but the matter in Europe is also very urgent. I have already spoken to the chairman. You will report my work directly for me!"
"President!" Musk was still in a state of confusion. He actually had to report his work directly to the chairman, Jia Yapeng!
"It's okay. Don't be nervous. I believe you can do this job well!" Cook's right hand rested on Musk's shoulder, and at the same time, his left hand hammered Musk's chest. Then he said with a smile, "You know, I am very optimistic about you. You have some temperament, which can also be seen in the chairman. I believe that if he sees you, he will definitely like you very much!"
"If you can get the approval of the chairman, then I will have a greater success rate in recommending you as my successor in the future. I believe that my vision is not wrong. You should prepare well. The chairman will be here in three days!"
Musk returned to the office in a daze. He was greeted by the extremely envious eyes of the other secretaries because Cook had just announced this decision in public in the Secretariat. As long as Musk was not a fool, he would definitely have a meteoric rise if he could replace the president and report directly to the chairman.
So, was Musk a fool?
Obviously not, so Musk was afraid that he would be promoted again. This was really infuriating!

Three days later, Boss Jia arrived as scheduled. However, the original appointment was in the afternoon, but Boss Jia arrived at 8 o 'clock in the morning. This caught everyone off guard, so a lot of the work that needed to be prepared had not been fully prepared. Boss Jia found a lot of mistakes, and those in charge were obviously unlucky.
However, Musk did not make any mistakes. Although he joined the Daqian with ulterior motives, his ability was real. He also completed the work very well, and his familiarity with the business was not inferior to anyone else. Therefore, he completed the task given by Cook perfectly. Boss Jia could not help but nod after hearing it.
"Do you have anything to do in the afternoon?" Boss Jia suddenly asked.
"Ah … No …" Musk was stunned for a moment, then he shook his head and said.
"Well, accompany me for a walk. I haven't been to Shanghai for a long time!" Boss Jia said as he stretched.
