Recently, more than 30 trucks filled with 5-cent coins
arrived at Apple’s headquarters in California. Initially, the
security company that protects the facility said the trucks
were in the wrong place, but minutes later, Tim
Cook (Apple CEO) received a call from Samsung CEO
explaining that they will pay $1 billion dollars for the fine
recently ruled against the South Korean company in this
way.
The funny part is that the signed document does not
specify a single payment method, so Samsung is entitled
to send the creators of the iPhone their billion dollars in
the way they deem best.
This dirty but genius geek troll play is a new headache to
Apple executives as they will need to put in long hours
counting all that money, to check if it is all there and to
try to deposit it crossing fingers to hope a bank will
accept all the coins.
Lee Kun-hee, Chairman of Samsung Electronics, told the
media that his company is not going to be intimidated by
a group of “geeks with style” and that if they want to play
dirty, they also know how to do it.
You can use your coins to buy refreshments at the little
machine for life or melt the coins to make computers,
that’s not my problem, I already paid them and fulfilled
the law.
A total of 20 billion coins, delivery hope to finish this
week.
Let’s see how Apple will respond to this.
