Silicon valley legend: The just-concluded movie 1 is mainly about the founding of Apple and Microsoft. When you finished reading it, were you still talking to Bill? Gates' behavior was despised, but when I think about it later, it seems that it is not the same thing.
This film vividly reproduces the college life and entrepreneurial process of Jobs and Bill Gates. Jobs' creativity and ability are naturally speechless, but he is still at a disadvantage in the competition with Bill Gates, and at the end of the film, it is mentioned that Microsoft already holds a part of Apple.
Looking at Jobs' performance in movies, from the management point of view, he mainly has the following problems:
1, he pays too much attention to the improvement of productivity and forgets the handling of interpersonal relationships. In the film, he repeatedly asked employees to work overtime for the company regardless of their physical condition, and ridiculed their subordinates if they were slightly dissatisfied. Management is a science, it is the unity of science and art, it not only needs to master scientific management theories and methods, but also needs to closely combine with reality and change according to the changes of the situation, so as to achieve good results. Real managers not only have the technical knowledge and ability to organize productivity, but also need the knowledge and skills of interpersonal relationships. It is difficult for a person who only knows business technology like him to complete the organizational goals comprehensively and smoothly.
He didn't lead the employees of the company to work towards the same goal well, but deepened the infighting. Jobs paid too much attention to the development of a certain computer product and neglected other employees, which led to the intensified gang struggle in the company.
And there are some signs of personality cult. All these will make it difficult to determine the company's goals, the internal cohesion will weaken rapidly, and the members will not be able to coordinate, which will make it difficult to achieve the company's goals and hinder the company's further development.
As a leader, he did not carry out his decision-making power well, but exercised his control and supervision power excessively, unable to absorb and adopt other people's suggestions. As the top leader of the company, Jobs should pay attention to the company's decision-making and decide the future development direction of the company, instead of always appearing in the employees' offices to check their work progress. This will not only weaken the enthusiasm of employees, but also limit the long-term development of the company and make it difficult to achieve its goals. Moreover, as a good leader, he should know how to take other people's advice and build the company better, instead of being authoritarian and treating the company as his own accessory.
However, Jobs also had an advantage. According to the market, competition, customers' needs, advantages and disadvantages of the organization, he initially saw the opportunity and seized it, making the brand of Apple famous in the world. If he doesn't have keen insight and seize the opportunity, then everything after that doesn't need to be thought about.
Personally, Jobs also has some problems with his outlook on life. First of all, in order to protect his reputation, he is unwilling to admit that his daughter is not a competent father. Secondly, when he started his business, he was disheveled and took psychedelic drugs, which was difficult to understand.
On the other hand, Bill Gates and his team work together to achieve the same goal. The cohesion of the company is constantly strengthened, and all members coordinate with each other. The company has achieved long-term development, and the result of natural management of the company is better than that of Jobs.
Through this film, we can clearly see the important position of leaders in the whole group. He is the cornerstone of the whole organization. If the organization is compared to a sophisticated instrument, the employees are its trivial parts, while the leaders are the workers who assemble the instruments and control the whole situation. Without him, no matter how many parts and expensive costs, it is useless. He should know and remember the goal of the organization, lead the whole team to work towards this goal, and let the organization achieve long-term development, so as to be a qualified leader.
Silicon valley legend Film Review 2 In the management class tonight, Teacher Ma showed me the film silicon valley legend, and everyone was very happy, especially my classmate who is both a movie lover and a fruit fan. After a day's class, everyone is exhausted, and it is rare to have such a chance to relax. I don't want to despise those students who sit in the back and do their homework with dim lights. I just want to say that they lost an opportunity to enjoy a good movie and learn management experience from two excellent managers.
I thought this movie was to commemorate Steve Jobs, who died soon after, but I looked up information on the Internet and found that this movie is really an old movie. Its release time is1June, 999. Because of my limited generalization ability, let me briefly talk about the main content of the film first. Silicon valley legend is mainly about two young people who worked hard, innovated and surpassed their dreams in 1970s and 1980s. Both of them have a lot of sex, and they are both college students who have not graduated. Everyone has a good friend who starts a business with himself; Are all geniuses in the IT field; Is the founder of the business empire; Everyone dreams of changing the world. In such an era when IBM dominates the world, I am particularly touched by such a group of fearless, lawless and free young people. Like creative pirates, they tried their best to capture the great ship IBM. Youth is their proudest capital, so life becomes interesting, stories become full and movies become extremely attractive. After watching the movie, I learned about the unknown complex relationship between Apple and Microsoft, more about the hardships experienced by these two empires at the beginning of their creation, and gradually realized Jobs' sentence "Stay hungry and stay stupid." The profound meaning of. Jobs and Bill are lucky. Behind them, there are two or three friends who really know them. They bear the storm and share the joy and success.
After reading silicon valley legend, Gates' position in my mind has greatly declined. I can only sneer at the sentence "A good artist plagiarizes, and a great artist steals", which is simply a far-fetched excuse for his shameful behavior of stealing the fruits of others' labor. It is well known that a good artist lies in rich creativity and a great artist lies in great creativity. It makes me sick to think that Microsoft is still openly selling expensive Windows operating system in a big way. However, character belongs to character. Bill Gates' marketing strategy and business acumen are still worth learning, and I admire his courage. He can bring two or three hooded boys into IBM headquarters to contact their boss, sell the little-known DOS operating system to IBM, and let IBM people agree that he is not limited to selling the operating system to an IBM company. This is surprising. In addition, Bill Gates dared to go deep into Apple's headquarters in order to get a new operating system named M, which was painstakingly developed by Apple, so as to cheat Jobs' trust and get the operating system he missed so much. What's more, it took him a long time to market the system in Japan in order to avoid Jobs' suspicion, but when Jobs found this problem and flew into a rage, he was able to put it out with one mouth. Moreover, from many plots in the film, we can see that Bill Gates has special admiration and courage that ordinary people don't have. He has a pair of eyes that are good at discovering business opportunities, a group of brains that are good at predicting the future and are quite flexible, and a cheeky person who does whatever it takes to achieve his goal. Plus, he has a powerful mother, so his success is natural.
As for Jobs, after watching this film, I have increased my admiration for him. He is the pioneer, reformer and reformer of the whole IT industry in the last century, the darling of an era and the precious wealth of all mankind. It is with Jobs that family personal computers with graphical interfaces can gradually enter people's lives, various computer brands can follow Apple like mushrooms after rain, and the Internet can develop rapidly. The birth of related products in the Internet era has greatly enriched people's life world and changed the track of an era. I believe that thousands of years later, when people look back and see the dazzling light of that superstar, they will be in awe, just as we modern people miss Alsac Newton. It can be said that Jobs and Newton are very similar, and both changed the world with an apple. In the film, Jobs is an innovative leader with the charm of an Italian man. He makes his people worship themselves like gods and treat their work meticulously. He is not making a mass consumer product, but carefully sketching a work of art. He has established Apple's corporate culture and product style, brought unprecedented artistic enjoyment to consumers, and even made Apple's culture an indispensable part of American culture, making consumers all over the world crazy about every work of art. Jobs's style is completely different from Bill's. He was an absolute tyrant in the empire he built. He is almost abnormal and harsh, which makes many excellent employees leave him. In the future, he will become Apple's nemesis. For example, many employees left him and went to Microsoft's business, and some senior employees started their own businesses, creating UNIX systems and LINX systems that competed with MAC systems. He even crazily encouraged his Macintosh team to confront the MAC team and split the whole big company. People can't have only one side. Men have many sides. Jobs was not a good husband in life at first. The idleness and cynicism in college remained unchanged for a long time after work, until his best friend Wooz left him and the president of the company fired him. It seems that he suddenly realized that he began to change himself and change the world more effectively.
At the end of the film, when Jobs returned to the position of Apple's president more than ten years later, he was already facing a stormy Apple company, and the little Bill he despised at that time was already the amazing monarch of Microsoft Empire and became the richest man in the world. This can't help but make people feel that things are unpredictable and the wind and water turn around. At this point, Jobs looked back at Bill Gates, who was all smiles on the big screen, and he could only smile helplessly, and the feeling of desolation arose.
However, years have washed away Jobs' impetuousness and frivolity, worn away his edges and corners, but precipitated the essence of his thoughts. At this time, Jobs is eagerly looking forward to changing the world again with his bursting creativity. This time, the whole world will tremble!
Silicon valley legend Film Review Part 3 I saw silicon valley legend and ate an apple.
It sucks. Just like the beginning of the great rejuvenation. Story fragments, plot fragments. This is a movie about Joe Wang and Gates, so how can people make Gates become such a virtue? Jobs is a crazy genius, and Gates feels like a clown.
It's a bit ridiculous to worship people with some famous sayings and deliberately contrasted characters. How can the audience be so easy to coax these days, although it was a movie ten years ago.
It is true that Jobs is the protagonist, but the way to highlight Apple and Wang is not to suppress Gates, which lowers the overall level and makes people feel unbelievable. It's too fake. That boy Gates can't even find a girlfriend for a day. In the competition between the two companies, Gates is obviously ruthless. Jobs is in charge of innovation and Gates is in charge of plagiarism. But in the real battle, it is estimated that both of them played tricks, and both of them were not clean. It seems that really superb people have some moral flaws, so it is hypocritical to cover them up ~
The strangest thing is that old Joe obviously got his girlfriend pregnant with his own child, but he still refuses to admit that he shouldn't even give a child support or anything. He's crazy. Why not explain the reason for the movie? But you haven't spoken for a long time ... that Gates is wicked, but old Joe is black and blue in this matter, as if he had made a beautiful mistake. No wonder the Bolsheviks didn't understand the amorous feelings of such a small bourgeois. I just hate this neurotic man.
"If I had to choose a genius, I would choose madness, which is the opposite of a coin", which was summed up by Lao Qiao, but this line was melodramatic and not brilliant, but the fart essence ~ Gates died, so it is estimated that the comparison is one-sided.
Just when I want to see if there are any advantages to see below, the list of actors has come out beautifully-I guessed the beginning, but I couldn't guess the end. Feeling cheated!
When American movies have two goals, we can be more tolerant of China movies.
Are the apples in Silicon Valley sweet, dear?
After watching the life of cattle people, I will worry about tomorrow's daily necessities ~
Silicon valley legend Film Review 4 Steve Jobs is a restless boy, thinking about big things all day and wanting to be a big shot. He and several associates studied electrical panels and set up a company. Finally, he stole Fuji Xerox's computer technology, became famous in one fell swoop, and appeared in Fortune and Time. When I was about to challenge IBM to succeed, I found that it was stolen by a "worthless" villain. The little man coaxed him around, seemingly showing weakness everywhere to show humility, but in fact he secretly sold his stolen operating system to NEC, got a big order, and his career began to take off. This man later became the richest man in the world-Bill Gates.
This time, I was dumbfounded, and the arrogant Jobs was finally hit. He was even "deal with a man as he deals with you"! He insisted that "we will be better than you in the end", and Bill Gates simply responded with "Never mind".
Be a pirate. This is the result. If you don't rob others, they will rob you. If you are careless, you may lose the game. This may be what the writers and directors of Pirates of Silicon Valley want to tell us.
Unfortunately, however, this conclusion is too superficial.
Yes, both Apple and Microsoft stole other people's things, but it is definitely not these "steals" that determine their success. If success is so simple, everyone can be a thief. Why do you need so many R&D personnel?
The director may think that in order to condense the decades-long experience of Gates and Jobs into this one-and-a-half-hour film, it is necessary to compress them and highlight their differences. In this way, it will be very good to highlight the genius foresight and persuasiveness of Jobs and the flexibility and tenacious fighting spirit of Gates. However, this raises a question: is the compressed thing still true?
If you look up the information about the starting points of Gates and Jobs' careers, you will find that "Apple" and "Microsoft" can dominate the world, not by stealing at all, but by unremitting struggle. Jobs, like his name "Jobs", is an out-and-out workaholic. When "Microsoft" was only a small team of several people, Gates even worked for several days without changing his underwear, which attracted colleagues around him to cover their noses. They can lead the company to create an era, and there must be a lot of sweat soaked in it.
Unfortunately, these plots did not appear in Inception Silicon Valley/silicon valley legend. What we see is the boss who plays cool and curses all day, the "legend" who keeps talking, and the little bill who hunches his back as if he is malnourished, but he has nothing to say in his heart.
Picasso said: "Good artists copy, great artists steal." He was taken as the truth by the director and told a big story. It's just that the director ignored Picasso's words. "Stealing" only refers to the initial imitation, and you need to exert your creativity after getting started. "Theft" is only a temporary measure, not the whole truth. For example, when you enter high school, you don't understand many things. Then you met a teacher who taught you all the knowledge. Finally, you were admitted to a university. Can you attribute the success of the exam to "stealing" the teacher? Without this teacher, other teachers will teach you this knowledge. After all, this is what you must master and what schools should teach. It is necessary for you to appreciate what this teacher has given you, but you can't attribute all the reasons for your success to this teacher, can you? After all, after others teach you something, you still need to work hard and sweat by yourself. Just accumulate and store these things, and use them to get a score and get into a university. Wouldn't it be a waste of time if you put the reason for your career success on "stealing" others?
Of course, after all, this is a commercial film, not a documentary. There is no need to completely review the struggles and grievances between Microsoft and Apple, as long as it can create contradictions, entertain the public and provide some talk materials for everyone.
Therefore, it seems unnecessary for me to spend so much time talking about "struggle" and "creation".
Review of silicon valley legend Films 5. After watching silicon valley legend tonight, I felt a lot.
First of all, if we want to achieve something, we must learn to use it. In the film, Bill Gates' Microsoft and Jobs' Apple are not original creators in the field of computer operating systems, but they both "borrowed" the good technologies of other companies, such as using Xerox's window technology at no cost. It is like the "ancestor" of piracy.
Second: the founders of two great companies are the same, so why do they have different control over the company? Jobs is outstanding, extroverted and unassuming, while Bill Gates is introverted and deep. The former is easy to make enemies, while the latter is low-key and practical. Jobs is easily influenced by emotional factors, while Bill Gates is less influenced by emotions.
Third: Both of them have a common feature, that is, they are interested in their own study and work, and they are both workaholics.
Fourth: They are very confident in their field. They didn't worship or fear the electronic giant IBM at that time, but they just had an impulsive desire to dare to challenge. When IBM doesn't attach importance to their products, or even despises them, they are still confident that their products can open a new era.
Fifth, their adaptability and learning ability are very strong. During their school days, the two masters were sloppy and went their own way, but when they went out to talk about cooperation with customers, they all realized the reasons and corrected them in time because of personal image problems, and finally found a partner smoothly.
Sixth: a person's success is not the result of his own efforts, but the result of the efforts of a group of people, focusing only on one person. Bill Gates owes his success to his good friend Paul and others, and Jobs also owes his success to his good friend Wozniak and others, both of whom owe it to Xerox.
Seventh: The one who laughs earliest is not necessarily the one who laughs last.
