    "Great. I’d like to break down this by discussing impacts of post investment decisions for the Pixel handset lines at two levels of micro and macro evaluation, which will be able to lead us to an evidence-based answer of what I think Google should continue to invest and ramp up their investment to hit their target ROI.
