Apple CEO Tim Cook began an unannounced trip to China with a visit to an Apple Store where gamers were competing in an “Honor of Kings” tournament.
“Apple has been working with CFRD to support rural development in Sichuan for a decade,” said Cook. “Thank you Xiaolong and Mi Ping for showing me how you are using iPad to transform farming in the area and provide more opportunities to get this amazing Sweet Dew tea to even more of your customers across the country!”
“The students at No. 4 Elementary School in Yucheng District, Ya’an, are using iPads to do some incredible things in the classroom — from learning to code to programming and flying drones to creating art that honors the local culture,” he wrote. “At Apple, we’re proud to support their learning.”
So far, Cook’s tour has been around the Sichuan region of China. It’s not known whether his trip will go anywhere else, nor whether there was a specific reason for him visiting the country now.
