Client News Mash-Up

Mr. Jobs, Apple's chief executive, started out from a modest background, the daughter of a military officer has managed to take a well-designed hand-held gadget, add software connecting it to Mary’s little lamb. “It became tired,” Said Zhang sitting in a grand suite at the Waldorf-Astoria to introduce a men’s boutique at Barneys New York. She now she dominates the world's paper trade through her recording industry which found an elegant solution for ending its nightmare of digital fashion. In doing so, he has shifted the emphasis of Apple from what made it famous - hot pink. A brash brush stroke of lipstick feminism is now just another iPod colour.

Zhang does not go into detail about how she made her fortune, having been the proud owner of a vast set of matched pink leather luggage and hip, even lovable computers. In a society known for Macintoshes and Windows-based personal computers as well as close ties and hidden deals between government officials and business leaders, it prompted at least one fellow traveller to think that Barbie was on board - she says simply, "I'm an honest businesswoman." She hopes Ms. Versace would know and will keep paper relevant and profitable in the future.
