库克再次到访中国。

3月20日，苹果CEO蒂姆·库克（Tim Cook）在上海接受澎湃新闻记者采访时，再次强调中国供应链对苹果的重要性。他表示，苹果和中国供应链是非常融洽的双赢关系，对苹果供应链来说，没有比中国更重要的地方。

库克表示，30年前他来中国时，那时候中国工厂条件还非常差，工厂有很多人，现在中国工厂现代化水平已经很高了，拥有非常先进的制造能力，训练有素的工人，“但要放在未来看，2030年苹果所有的产品要实现碳中和，双方都要做出大量的创新。”

比亚迪、蓝思科技、长盈精密参与交流分享

当天，苹果携三家供应商⸺比亚迪、蓝思科技和长盈精密在上海办公室举办了一场小型分享会，集中展示了其在智能制造、绿色制造以及人才培养方面的最新成果和进展。苹果与清华大学合作的碳中和能力提升项目的三位学生也在现场分享了他们在供应商公司等地实习的感受与收获。

公开消息显示：库克最近两次访华都参了与供应链有关的活动。去年10月份，库克来到浙江嘉善立讯精密（002475）的工厂。这家工厂是为苹果生产手表（Apple Watch）的总装工厂，立讯精密董事长王来春陪同库克参观。

库克表示，苹果与立讯精密合作已有十多年，现在他们正在生产一些苹果最先进的产品，包括碳中和的苹果手表系列和iPhone 15 Pro Max等。立讯将在2030年实现为苹果生产的碳中和。

中国供应链企业也对苹果非常重视。这次比亚迪董事长王传福、蓝思科技董事长周群飞，长盈精密总经理陈小硕都亲自参与了这次分享会。

“我们非常融洽、非常好的关系，是双赢的关系，任何关系做到双赢都是至关重要的。“库克表示。

据介绍，比亚迪2008年成为苹果的供应商合作伙伴，起初为苹果提供金属外壳的加工，目前它为iPhone、iPad、Apple Watch等多条产品线提供玻璃、结构件和组装业务 。

比亚迪相关人士透露，目前苹果依然是公司第一大客户，在智能制造、绿色制造等诸多领域都跟苹果进行了深度合作。

比亚迪在现场通过沙盘形式展示了iPad结构件及组装业务的产线设计。在该产线的关键工序⸺数控机床中使用数据模型，能够实时捕捉大量的数据并加以分析判断，从而大幅提升制程能力。现场展示的logo组装机是比亚迪在iPad项目中自主研发的自动化组装设备。

库克重申晚些时候公布生成式AI进展

库克这次访华同样行程满满，除了与供应链企业交流分享外，当天早上他还去外滩漫步并品尝上海传统早餐，并探访了一家导演工作室。

此外，苹果上海静安零售店即将在3月21日开业，库克也在微博上欢迎顾客光临。到时候，库克可能会亲临这家店开业，与顾客互动。

在与媒体交流时被问及iPhone 在人工智能（AI）上的进展，库克则回答称，AI已经运用在了苹果产品的各方面，例如Apple Watch的摔倒检测以及iPhone的预测性文本输入等功能，都是由AI来完成驱动的。

对于生成式AI的应用，库克则再次重申今年晚些时候会有新闻宣布。

苹果在决定停止造车之后，已明确会将更多精力放在AI上，尤其是大语言模型方面的表现。当地时间2月28日，苹果公司召开年度股东大会。库克在会上表示，苹果正在生成式人工智能领域进行大量投资，他还承诺苹果将在今年晚些时候分享生成式人工智能技术相关计划。

库克谈道，苹果公司已经看到了 “生成式人工智能具有令人难以置信的突破潜力，这就是我们目前在这一领域进行大量投资的原因”。苹果相信，这将为用户在生产力、解决问题等方面带来革命性机会。

近日，外媒援引消息人士的话称，苹果公司正与谷歌商讨一项可能重新定义人工智能行业规则的大型合作协议，以将谷歌的Gemini人工智能引擎集成到iPhone中，但最快也要等到6月开发者大会期间宣布，也存在双方未谈拢的可能。

Cook visits China again.

On March 20th, Apple CEO Tim Cook reiterated the importance of China's supply chain to Apple in an interview with The Paper in Shanghai. He said that there is a very harmonious win-win relationship between Apple and China's supply chain, and there is nothing more important for Apple's supply chain than China.

Cook said that when he came to China 30 years ago, the factory conditions were still very poor and there were many people in the factory. Now, the modernization level of Chinese factories is very high, with advanced manufacturing capabilities and well-trained workers. "But looking into the future, both sides need to make a lot of innovation to achieve carbon neutrality in all Apple products by 2030."

BYD, Lansi Technology, and Changying Precision participated in the exchange and sharing

On that day, Apple held a small sharing event with three suppliers - BYD, Lansi Technology, and Changying Precision - at its Shanghai office, showcasing its latest achievements and progress in intelligent manufacturing, green manufacturing, and talent cultivation. Three students from the Carbon Neutrality Enhancement Project, a collaboration between Apple and Tsinghua University, also shared their experiences and gains from internships at supplier companies and other locations on site.

Public information shows that Cook has participated in supply chain related activities during his last two visits to China. Last October, Cook visited the factory of Jiaxun Precision (002475) in Zhejiang. This factory is the final assembly plant for producing Apple Watch watches, and Wang Laichun, Chairman of Luxon Precision, accompanied Cook on a tour.

Cook said that Apple has been cooperating with Luxon Precision for over a decade and they are now producing some of Apple's most advanced products, including the carbon neutral Apple Watch series and the iPhone 15 Pro Max. Lixun will achieve carbon neutrality in apple production by 2030.

Chinese supply chain companies also attach great importance to Apple. BYD Chairman Wang Chuanfu, Lansi Technology Chairman Zhou Qunfei, and Changying Precision General Manager Chen Xiaoshuo all personally participated in this sharing event.

"Our very harmonious and good relationship is a win-win relationship, and achieving a win-win situation in any relationship is crucial," Cook said.

It is reported that BYD became a supplier partner for Apple in 2008. Initially, it provided metal casing processing for Apple, and currently it provides glass, structural components, and assembly services for multiple product lines such as iPhone, iPad, and Apple Watch.

According to sources from BYD, Apple remains the company's largest customer and has established deep cooperation with Apple in various fields such as intelligent manufacturing and green manufacturing.

BYD showcased the production line design of iPad structural components and assembly business on site through a sandbox format. The use of data models in the key process of CNC machine tools on this production line can capture a large amount of data in real time and analyze and judge it, thereby greatly improving the process capability. The logo assembly machine displayed on site is an automated assembly equipment independently developed by BYD in the iPad project.

Among the devices displayed on site is a compact iPad automatic optical inspection device, which embodies the concept of "producing iPads using iPads". This is a collaborative development between BYD and Apple, applied to the inspection of iPad production lines. It uses four iPad Pro cameras for puzzle sampling, combined with deep learning, to complete the assembly inspection of the product. After 10 days of training, the detection rate can reach over 99%.

Lansi Technology (300433) from Hunan became a supplier partner for Apple in 2006, producing glass protective screens for the first generation iPhone. At present, it produces glass, metal casings, and other accessories for multiple product lines such as iPhones, and is also one of the glass suppliers for Apple Vision Pro.

Zhou Qunfei stated that the Apple Vision Pro glass panel is the most difficult glass the company has ever made, mainly due to the difficulty in shaping and processing. It is understood that LanSi Technology is producing this piece of glass at full capacity.

Changying Precision (300115) from Guangdong became a member of Apple's supply chain in 2012, starting with providing metal parts for Mac computers and now providing key appearance parts for multiple product lines such as Mac, Apple Watch, and Apple Vision Pro.

Chen Xiaoshuo introduced that Changying Precision is one of Apple's partners in the innovation and application of recycled materials, and has achieved the use of 100% recycled aluminum to produce Mac casings.

Cook reiterated that the progress of generative AI will be announced later

Cook's visit to China was also full of itinerary. In addition to exchanging and sharing with supply chain companies, he also took a walk on the Bund and tasted traditional Shanghai breakfast that morning, and visited a director's studio.

In addition, Apple's Shanghai Jing'an retail store will open on March 21st, and Cook also welcomes customers to visit on Weibo. At that time, Cook may personally visit this store to open and interact with customers.

When asked about the progress of the iPhone in artificial intelligence (AI) during media communication, Cook replied that AI has been applied in various aspects of Apple products, such as the fall detection of the Apple Watch and the predictive text input function of the iPhone, which are all driven by AI.

Regarding the application of generative AI, Cook reiterated that there will be news announcements later this year.

After deciding to stop making cars, Apple has made it clear that it will focus more on AI, especially in terms of performance in large language models. On February 28th local time, Apple held its annual shareholder meeting. Cook stated at the meeting that Apple is making significant investments in the field of generative artificial intelligence, and he also promised that Apple will share plans related to generative artificial intelligence technology later this year.

Cook said that Apple has seen "incredible breakthrough potential in generative artificial intelligence, which is why we are currently investing heavily in this field.". Apple believes that this will bring revolutionary opportunities for users in terms of productivity, problem-solving, and more.

Recently, foreign media quoted sources as saying that Apple is in talks with Google about a large-scale cooperation agreement that may redefine the rules of the artificial intelligence industry to integrate Google's Gemini artificial intelligence engine into the iPhone. However, it will not be announced until the developer conference in June at the earliest, and there is also a possibility that the two sides have not reached an agreement.
