Bill Gates: As long as you write software will be successful, initially rogue company dream

At a breakfast meeting at the 2015 Boao Forum for Asia yesterday, Microsoft founder Bill Gates shared his history of being rich. Talking about the difference between Steve Jobs and Apple's founder, Gates said that unlike Mr. Jobs, he did not love property as much as Mr. Jobs, and he did not take too many assets from Microsoft.

Talk about jobs:

Learned a lot from Steve Jobs.

Great insight into business philosophy

Bill Gates said: "When I founded Microsoft, IBM was the boss of the industry, 1981 Microsoft for IBM to provide the relevant chip, and Intel also have cooperation ... We learned a lot from the top of the industry, but in fact, some of the boss of the leader's temper is not very good, this partnership is actually very challenging, not looking so good. ”

Bill Gates added: "Mr. Jobs is really a very great person, he is very good at engineering grade products, he is not in the engineering, but he is very good at selecting people to do the products he wants, whether it is software or chips, he chose the process will make the product more and more beautiful, he formed a team, build products, The skill with which he put all these pieces together was too high. I've learned a lot from Steve Jobs, though he's not a crazy computer person, but he has a deeper insight into business ideas than anyone I've ever met. People would ask if Mr Jobs would not want so much if he was alive, would he be more gentle? But people have no idea about me because I'm not so strict with the people around me, I'm just strict with myself. At Harvard, more than 80 students were mathematically good, but I think at least 79 of them are not really good at math, I'm different from these students, I'm called math geniuses. But that does not prevent these students from becoming New York's famous lawyers. Everyone is different, this is an interesting thing. ”

On the establishment of the company:

If you write the software, you will succeed.

Initial Rogue Company Dream

Bill Gates also said that in the 80 's, Japan's consumer groups were very focused on quality, while Microsoft 40% of the sales were achieved in Japan, this sales rate lasted 5 years, Japanese consumers also changed the way Microsoft does things, so for Microsoft is a revolutionary push.

Bill Gates said he was already writing software when he was 12 years old. "My favorite thing to do is to write software. I found that once you write software to be successful, from the age of 11 to 17 years old, as long as I write software I will succeed, since so good at writing software, then I set up a software company to write. Later, they say you have to hire people, you have to fire people, you have to do the budget, buy things, do accounts, and slowly these things learn 1.1 points. The first software was written to me, and later I wanted to make the software more powerful before I started writing contracts. In fact, all just from the dream of software, I was not the first to the so-called supervision company's dream. "said Gates.

"Like Tesla CEO Musk, Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg is really good, I often have the feeling of behind, they know how to choose to do things in a more effective way, there are more and more than our years of different trends, and we that era is a white sheet." Now they're not going to be like the old days. For example, Mr. Jobs, he has his crazy place, I have my crazy place. Tencent's President Ma and Mr. Yun are great entrepreneurs, and I don't have a deep understanding of them, they are doing their best. ”

Microsoft founder Bill Gates talked about the difference between Apple's founder and Steve Jobs, saying that unlike Mr. Jobs, he did not take much of his assets from Microsoft, unlike jobs. And Elon Musk, founder of Tesla, stressed that only useful things can make money. The 2015 Boao Forum was unveiled yesterday, with two internationally renowned entrepreneurs sharing their entrepreneurial mentality.

The new normal economy, China's GDP growth in the next 15 years can still be maintained at about 7%, during which China should start private investment, increase consumption ratio, investment structure to technological innovation ... The participants were still in full swing on the last day of the forum, when they discussed China's strategic choice in the new economic norm.

Elon Musk, the founder and current chief executive of Tesla, said yesterday in the same forum that good people are the same. "I have a lot of parallels with Gates, and when I was about 10 years old, I started writing software, and most of it was very successful, and I thought, one day, I wanted to do the work." It was not that I wanted to be an entrepreneur, want to be rich, but I want to do useful things, only to do useful things to make people follow you to do, do better and better, there will be a future, then the money will naturally come, this is the appropriate way of economic operation. Only if you really like something, other people will like it. If you feel that it is a great business, you naturally devote your time, energy and life. ”

Elon Musk also talked about the limitations of people's ego, whether it depends on how much willingness and ability to learn. "I started to do software, but suddenly one day I saw the solar panel utilization is not as full as I thought, electric cars have not been greatly promoted, I think it is a good thing, I use my expertise and capital to promote the development of solar electric vehicles, In the process I found I had to learn how to do the hardware to do the job well. I'm not a student of this origin, but I can learn very quickly when I read and learn from the experts in this field. "Elon Musk said. (Reporter Chenhailing)
