Ondrej Holzman Ngaphezu kwamaviki amathathu, i-Apple ikwazile ukugcina izivumelwano eziningi nemibandela eyayenza nomphakeli wesafire, i-GT Advanced Technologies, ngaphansi kokugoqwa. Umemezele ukuqothuka ekuqaleni kuka-Okthoba futhi ebuza ukuze kuvikelwe abakweletwayo. Kwakuwukukhiqizwa kwesafire okwakunecala. Kodwa-ke, manje ubufakazi bomqondisi wokusebenza we-GT Advanced sebubonakala esidlangalaleni, buveza ulwazi oluhlukaniswe kakhulu kuze kube manje.
UDaniel Squiller, oyisikhulu esiphezulu kwa-GT Advanced, unamathisele incwadi efungelwe emaphepheni azisa inkantolo ngokuqothuka kwenkampani, afakwe ekuqaleni kuka-Okthoba. Nokho isitatimende sikaSquiller savalwa, kanti ngokusho kwabameli bakwa-GT, lokhu kwenziwe ngoba kuqukethe imininingwane yezinkontileka nabakwa-Apple ukuthi, ngenxa yezivumelwano zokungadaluli, i-GT kuzomele ikhokhe u-$50 million ngokwephula ngakunye.
NgoLwesibili, nokho, uSquiller wethule ngemuva kokuhilizisana ngokomthetho isitatimende esibuyekeziwe, efinyelele umphakathi, futhi inikeza ukuqonda okuyingqayizivele esimweni esidida kakhulu umphakathi kuze kube manje. U-Squiller ufingqa lesi simo kanje:
Ukhiye wokwenza umsebenzi ube nenzuzo kuzo zombili izinhlangothi kwakuwukukhiqiza amakristalu esafire eyodwa anele angama-262kg ukuze ahlangabezane nezidingo ze-Apple. I-GTAT idayise iziko lesafire ezingaphezu kuka-500 kumakhasimende ase-Asia akhiqiza ikristalu eyodwa engu-115kg. Abakhiqizi abaningi besafire abasebenzisa iziko ngaphandle kwe-GTAT bakhiqiza usayizi ongaphansi kuka-100kg. Ukukhiqizwa kwesafire kwamakhilogremu angu-262, uma kufinyelelwa, kungaba inzuzo kukho kokubili i-Apple ne-GTAT. Ngeshwa, ukukhiqizwa kwekristalu eyodwa yesafire engu-262kg akukwazanga ukuqedwa phakathi nezikhathi okuvunyelwene ngazo yizinhlangothi zombili futhi kubize kakhulu kunalokho obekulindelwe. Lezi zinkinga nobunzima buholele enkingeni yezezimali ye-GTAT, okuholele ekugcwaliseni iSahluko 11 sokuvikelwa kubabolekisi.
Emakhasini angu-21 obufakazi, u-Squiller uchaza ngokuningiliziwe ukuthi ukubambisana phakathi kwe-GT Advanced ne-Apple kwamiswa kanjani nokuthi empeleni kunjani kumkhiqizi omncane kangaka ukukhiqiza isafire kumdondoshiya onjalo. U-Squiller uhlukanisa amazwi akhe ngezigaba ezimbili: okokuqala, kwakuyizibopho zenkontileka ezazivuna i-Apple futhi, ngokuphambene nalokho, wakhalaza ngesimo se-GT, futhi okwesibili, kwakuyizindaba i-GT eyayingenakulawula kuzo.
I-Squiller ibhale isamba sezibonelo ezingama-20 (ezimbalwa zazo ngezansi) zamagama ashiwo i-Apple edlulisele wonke umthwalo wemfanelo nobungozi ku-GT:
- I-GTAT izibophezele ekuhlinzekeni ngezigidi zamayunithi we-sapphire material. Kodwa-ke, i-Apple yayingenaso isibopho sokuthenga le nto yesafire.
- I-GTAT yayinqatshelwe ekuguquleni noma yimiphi imishini, imininingwane, inqubo yokukhiqiza noma izinto zokwakha ngaphandle kwemvume yangaphambili ye-Apple. I-Apple ingashintsha le migomo noma nini, futhi i-GTAT bekufanele iphendule ngokushesha esimweni esinjalo.
- I-GTAT bekufanele yamukele futhi igcwalise noma yiliphi i-oda elivela kwa-Apple ngosuku olubekwe yi-Apple. Esimeni sanoma yikuphi ukubambezeleka, i-GTAT kwakudingeka iqinisekise ukulethwa okusheshayo noma ukuthenga izimpahla ezishintshayo ngezindleko zayo. Uma kwenzeka ukulethwa kwe-GTAT kubambezeleka, i-GTAT kufanele ikhokhe u-$320 ngekristalu ngayinye yesafire (kanye no-$77 ngemilimitha yezinto zesafire) njengomonakalo ku-Apple. Ngombono, ikristalu eyodwa ibiza ngaphansi kwamadola ayizinkulungwane ezingama-20. Kodwa-ke, i-Apple yayinelungelo lokukhansela i-oda layo, liphelele noma ingxenye yalo, kanye nokushintsha usuku lokulethwa nganoma yisiphi isikhathi ngaphandle kwesinxephezelo ku-GTAT.
Futhi efektri yakwaMese, izinto bezinzima ku-GT Advanced ngaphansi kokusho kwe-Apple, ngokusho kuka-Squiller:
- I-Apple yakhetha ifekthri ye-Mesa futhi yaxoxisana ngazo zonke izinkontileka zamandla nezokwakha nabantu besithathu ukuze baklame futhi bakhe indawo. Ingxenye yokuqala yefekthri i-Mesa ayizange isebenze kwaze kwaba nguZibandlela wezi-2013, ezinyangeni eziyisithupha ngaphambi kokuba i-GTAT iqale ukusebenza ngokugcwele. Ngaphezu kwalokho, kwaba nokunye ukubambezeleka okungahleliwe njengoba imboni ye-Mesa yayidinga inani elikhulu lokulungiswa, okuhlanganisa nokwakhiwa kabusha kwephansi elilingana nezinkundla zebhola eziningana.
- Ngemva kwezingxoxo eziningi, kwanqunywa ukuthi ukwakhiwa kwedepho kagesi kwakubiza kakhulu, okungukuthi akudingekile. Lesi sinqumo asenziwanga yi-GTAT. Okungenani ezimweni ezintathu, kube nokunqamuka kukagesi, okuholele ekubambezelekeni okukhulu ekukhiqizeni nasekulahlekelweni okuphelele.
- Izinqubo eziningi ezihilelekile ekusikeni, ekupholiseni nasekubumbeni isafire zazizintsha kumthamo ongakaze ubonwe wokukhiqizwa kwesafire. I-GTAT ayizange ikhethe ukuthi yimaphi amathuluzi ezosetshenziswa nokuthi yiziphi izinqubo zokukhiqiza ezozisebenzisa. I-GTAT yayingenakho ukuxhumana okuqondile nabahlinzeki bemishini yokusika nokupholisha ukuze ilungise futhi kwezinye izimo ithuthukise amathuluzi anjalo.
- I-GTAT ikholelwa ukuthi ayikwazanga ukufeza izintengo ezihleliwe zokukhiqiza kanye nemigomo ngenxa yokuthi ukusebenza nokuthembeka kwamathuluzi amaningi akuzange kuhlangabezane nezicaciso. Ekugcineni, iningi lamathuluzi okukhiqiza akhethiwe kwadingeka ukuthi esikhundleni salo kufakwe amanye amathuluzi, okuholele ekutshalweni kwezimali okwengeziwe kanye nezindleko zokusebenza ze-GTAT, kanye nezinyanga zokulahleka kokukhiqiza. Ukukhiqiza bekubiza cishe ngo-30% kunalokho obekuhleliwe, kudinga ukuqashwa kwabasebenzi abengeziwe abacela ku-350, kanye nokusetshenziswa kwezinsiza ezengeziwe ezengeziwe. I-GTAT kwadingeka ibhekane nalezi zindleko ezengeziwe.
Ngesikhathi i-GT Advanced ifaka isicelo sokuvikelwa kwabakweletwayo, isimo sase singasimami, njengoba inkampani ilahlekelwa u-$1,5 million ngosuku, ngokwamaphepha asenkantolo.
Yize u-Apple engakaphawuli ngesitatimende esishicilelwe, u-COO Squiller ukwazile ukuziguqula waba yindima yakhe futhi wethula enkantolo okuningana kokuthi u-Apple angaphikisana kanjani ecaleni le-GTAT:
Ngokusekelwe ezingxoxweni zami nabaphathi be-Apple (noma izitatimende zakamuva zabezindaba ze-Apple), ngingalindela ukuthi i-Apple, phakathi kwezinye izinto, iphikise ngokugculisayo ukuthi (a) ukwehluleka kwephrojekthi yesafire kungenxa yokungakwazi kwe-GTAT ukukhiqiza isafire ngaphansi kwemibandela okuvunyelwene ngayo; ukuthi (b) I-GTAT yayingasuka etafuleni lezingxoxo nganoma isiphi isikhathi ngo-2013, kodwa nokho ekugcineni yangena ngamabomu isivumelwano ngemva kwezingxoxo ezibanzi ngoba ukuxhumana ne-Apple kumelele ithuba elikhulu lokukhula; ukuthi (c) i-Apple yathatha ingozi enkulu yokungena ebhizinisini; ukuthi (d) noma yimiphi imininingwane i-GTAT ehlulekile ukuhlangabezana nayo sekuvunyelwene ngayo; ukuthi (e) i-Apple ayizange iphazamise nganoma iyiphi indlela ukusebenza kwe-GTAT; ukuthi (f) I-Apple ibambisane ne-GTAT ngokwethembeka nokuthi (g) i-Apple ibingazi ngomonakalo (noma izinga lomonakalo) obangelwe i-GTAT ngesikhathi sebhizinisi. Njengoba i-Apple ne-GTAT bevumelene ngesivumelwano, asikho isizathu sokuthi ngichaze izingxenye ngazinye kabanzi ngalesi sikhathi.
Lapho u-Squiller echaza kafushane ukuthi i-Apple izokwazi ukubukisa ngani futhi ngaphansi kwaziphi izimo ezinzima ze-GTAT idalwe yonke isivumelwano, umbuzo ophakamayo ukuthi kungani i-GT Advanced ingene ekukhiqizeni isafire kwe-Apple nhlobo. Kodwa-ke, u-Squiller ngokwakhe cishe uzoba nokunye okuchazayo mayelana nokudayiswa kwamasheya akhe enkampanini. Ngo-May 2014, ngemva kwezimpawu zokuqala zezinkinga efektri yaseMesa, wathengisa amaRandi ayizigidi ezingu-1,2 kumasheya e-GTAT futhi wenza uhlelo lokuthengisa amasheya engeziwe abiza isamba se-$ 750 ezinyangeni ezilandelayo.
Umqondisi omkhulu we-GT Advanced uThomas Gutierrez naye udayise amasheya ngobuningi, wakha uhlelo lokuthengisa ngoMashi walo nyaka kwathi ngo-September 8, usuku olwandulela ukwethulwa kwama-iPhones amasha ayengasebenzisi ingilazi yesafire evela kwa-GT, wathengisa amasheya abiza u-$160.
Ungathola ukufakwa okuphelele kwekesi le-Apple ne-GTAT lapha.
Angiliqondi leli bhizinisi... Leli yifayela likanogolantethe eliphuma e-Czech lakes ne-haju kunelase-USA...:)
Isiwula kuphela esingasayina isivumelwano esinjalo futhi siqinisekisa kuphela ukuzikhukhumeza okukhulu kwe-Apple kubahlinzeki bayo….into efana nokuthi kufanele wenze yonke into ngokwethu nangenani nangekhwalithi esiyifunayo futhi uma kungenjalo, uzoyikhokhela. bonke :(. Angithandi ngempela ukuthi ngibhalela ngokumelene ne-Apple, kodwa kamuva nje ukuzikhukhumeza nokuzenzisa kwabo sekuvele kakhulu, ngakho akekho ozofuna ukusebenza nabo.
Yini ekhukhumele ngenqubo yokuxoxisana ngemibandela yenkontileka engcono kakhulu yenkampani yami? Kunalokho, lona umsebenzi wawo wonke ummeleli onekhono wenkampani! Phela elinye iqembu lingazinqumela ukuthi lizifaka engozini enkulu linethemba lenzuzo enkulu noma liqhubeke nokukhiqizela amakhasimende abo amancane ngokwemithetho yalo.
Bazifaka engozini, futhi singaqagela ukuthi kungani, futhi behluleka. Ibhadi labo kanye ne-Apple. Uma u-Apple ephendukela kumuntu ongaphila ngokuvumelana nezibopho zakhe, wonke umuntu, kuhlanganise namakhasimende okugcina, angathola inzuzo.
Nokho, u-Apple wabiza amagama ahloniphekile. Yebo, umqondisi we-GTAT kwakungafanele neze asayine lokhu.
Kodwa akekho owabaphoqa ukuthi bangene esivumelwaneni esinjalo. I-Apple idale isikhundla esiqinile ngesikhathi ikhona futhi manje iyayisebenzisa. Lapho sebecishe banyamalala engozini, kwadingeka baphinde bagcwalise imibandela eyayishiwo. Njalo donsa isaha
Umhubhe wesenzo, akukho okunye…. Kufanele ngabe babazi kwasekuqaleni ukuthi kwakungeke kwenzeke, noma babeyiziphukuphuku ngokuphelele...
I-Apple idinga amakhulukhulu abahlinzeki ngokukhiqiza kwayo, abazoletha izingxenye zabo kanye nezingxenye zabo ngokunembile, ngaphandle kokubambezeleka nokuncane futhi ngekhwalithi ephelele. Uma i-Apple ingakhululeka kulezi zimo ezinzima, "inethiwekhi" yayo yabakhiqizi, abahlinzeki kanye nokuthengisa kuzodilika maduze. Ingabe izoqala, ngokwesibonelo, ngokulethwa kwezibuko sekwephuzile ngenyanga, okungasho ukuthi amakhasimende avela emhlabeni wonke kanye nabahlinzeki bezinye izingxenye ezingamakhulu, ngokwesibonelo i-iPhone, bazolinda umkhiqizi oyedwa ukuthi akhiqize izibuko, noma kunjalo izizathu zenhloso, kodwa namanje ngemva kwenyanga?
Ngandlela thize, sigxeka izimo ze-Apple ezinokhahlo nezamaqili ezibhekiswe kubahlinzeki bayo, ngakolunye uhlangothi, sifuna imikhiqizo engenasici, engenasici, ephelele nefika ngesikhathi evela kwa-Apple. Ngenxa yale nqubo, i-Apple iyakwazi ukuletha amashumi ezigidi zama-iPhones emakethe phakathi nezinsuku ezimbalwa. Kodwa-ke… Futhi akwanele…. Vele uzame ukuthenga i-iPhone 6 64GB yegolide e-Czech Republic namuhla.
Angivumi. Okuchazayo esigabeni sokuqala, okungenani ngokombono wami, akuhlangene nalokho okuchazwe esihlokweni (manje anginqumi ukuthi kuzoba yiqiniso ekugcineni noma cha). Kusukela kulokho okuchazwe esihlokweni, kubonakala kimi ukuthi i-Apple empeleni ingenza yonke into ngokwayo, ngoba umphakeli kuleli cala wayencike ekuthandeni kwakhe. Kufana nokuthi iklayenti lami manje selingitshela ukuthi kufanele ngibenzele kanjani umsebenzi. Lokhu kungase kugcine kwehlisa ikhono lami lokuletha ikhwalithi e-oda nangesikhathi, ngoba ngikwenza ngendlela ehlukile futhi ngiyazi ukuthi uma ngikwenza ngendlela engikwenza ngayo, ngizoletha lokho akufunayo nangesikhathi esifuna ngaso. Kodwa uma ngiqala ukuguqula izinqubo zami ezinolwazi engizifunde kahle, ngisho noma ngenhlanhla ikhasimende lazi ukuthi yini engcono emkhakheni wami, kungasho ukusebenza kahle okuphansi. Ingasaphathwa eyokusebenzisa amathuluzi nobuchwepheshe.
Sengisibona kangcono isigaba sesibili manje. Yebo, sifuna okuchazayo, uxolo, asikutholi. Umnqamulajuqu wenkinga, ikhwalithi inkinga.
Uyabona - ngisho nawe njengomuntu ongelutho (ngicabanga ukuthi ungumuntu ovamile) uyakwazi ukubona ububi benkontileka yomkhiqizi we-GTAT, kodwa kungani abaphathi bayo behlulekile ukwenza lokho?
Ngiyangabaza ukuthi i-Apple izobaphoqa ukuthi basayine.
Lokho kuyindaba ehlukile, futhi maye, ngingacabanga ngezizathu ezahlukahlukene lapha, kodwa azikho ezinengqondo. Umhubhe ohleliwe wokwabelana, njengoba omunye ebhale lapha, cishe ngeke wenzeke, ezitolo ezibiza izigidigidi futhi ngamandla anjalo, ukuzuza izigidi ezimbalwa ngamasheya kubonakala kuyinhlekisa kimi. Ngokufanayo, isibonelo, umzamo we-Apple wokuthola i-GTA, noma yini enye "ngenhloso". Into engenzeka kakhulu kimi ibonakala iyisilinganiso esibi ngabaphathi be-GTA kanye "nobumpumputhe" obunjalo ukuthi i-Apple ibingeke ikuvumele ukuthi kube kubi. Lokhu kwenzeka kithi thina bantu abafayo, ukuthi asiziboni izimpawu noma ubufakazi, ngisho nalapho zingaphansi kwekhala lethu, ngoba "sinophondo".
Ukuyibeka ngesiCzech - bathatha i-bite enkulu kakhulu.
