According to foreign media reports, apple's iMessage server went down again on Thursday local time, and as of press time, related problems have been solved, but this phenomenon is not the first time. Many users doubt apple's strength, and the deep reasons for frequent server downtime, will it affect the normal use of ordinary users' mobile phones?
Originally from the United States time on Tuesday, Apple's server in four days there were three times of downtime, each time the problem will affect the use of the device to varying degrees, the most serious case short message can not be sent out. Although the three downtimes are not long, generally a few hours can be repaired, but the frequent problems are still widely questioned by netizens, whether Apple has the ability to control these devices?
In the face of netizens' doubts, Apple officials refused to make any explanation for the downtime, and only revealed that it may be a technical problem through retail store employees. Such an attitude exacerbates the outside world's concerns, in case of a more serious problem one day, it may make the iPhone "brick", analysts also believe that the worry is not unfounded, Apple does not seem to care too much about technology, has been washed away by the rapid growth of stocks.
Many analysts pointed out that Cook seems to only care about Apple's sales and stock price, indifferent to technology and employee innovation, and server downtime is difficult to repair is just the tip of the iceberg. Once upon a time, Apple under Jobs pioneered the era of smart phones, every technology is eye-catching, but Cook can not do this, as a professional manager only focus on the interests of the company and individuals, whether you can win the next decade from the competition with Chinese brands is not important.
Some people in the industry take Huawei and Xiaomi as examples, these two Chinese brands attach much more importance to employees than Apple, and almost every year they will come up with equity to reward outstanding employees and encourage innovation to create more long-term value for the company. Take Xiaomi, for example, just announced the latest round of employee equity incentive plans yesterday, 4931 people received a total of more than 170 million shares of incentives, an average of 410,000 yuan per person can get incentives.
This fully demonstrates the importance that an enterprise attaches to talents, since the grand goal of "three years of world first" was put forward at the end of last year, technology-oriented is the program, and excellent talents are the source of technology. Xiaomi Chairman Lei Jun has repeatedly emphasized that "Xiaomi's most valuable wealth is people", as long as you can make outstanding contributions to Xiaomi, whether you are a meritorious elder who has been in office for ten years, or a fresh face who has recently joined the company, as long as you work hard, you can get rich returns, and Xiaomi does not engage in seniority.
Although Xiaomi has achieved some leading positions in charging, imaging, screens and other aspects, it is still a certain distance to dominate, so Lei Jun has proposed two new measures. First of all, firmly adhere to the goal of 5 years investment of 100 billion yuan, the annual research and development of 20 billion yuan is the basic investment, no one can break this bottom line. The other is to recruit 5,000 outstanding engineers this year, continue to attract fresh blood to drive millet growth, and strive for the goal of being the world's first.
