Of course, Wang Ye gave him his full support!
Polar Bear Investment Company had a staff member stationed at Apple, serving as a company director, essentially to oversee the investment.
Wang Ye had directly told that director that anything Boss Qiao proposed at the board meeting should be supported unconditionally!
After all, a genius needs to be given enough freedom to tinker as they please…
The iPhone project was initiated by Boss Qiao at the beginning of last year's board meeting, and it is currently underway.
Because Boss Qiao's demands were so uncompromising, as he wanted to introduce a revolutionary, truly smart phone, the project was progressing slowly.

In Wang Ye's memory, the first-generation iPhone seemed to be slated to debut in January of '07.
