The last life of millet lei and Liu long chat 12 hours

"A book, a person changed my life, which makes me in the first year of college, I want to build a http://www.aliyun.com/zixun/aggregation/38599.html" > World-class company. "Lei said," That is a book in the 80 's, printed very rough, translation is not the same as today, but I am excited not to see. ”

That book is the fire of Silicon Valley, and that man is Steve Jobs.

A fire in the 80 's

"I am particularly afraid of falling behind, afraid that once behind, I cannot catch up, I am not a good person to survive adversity." I'll think of one thing first so that I don't get myself into trouble. That is to say, I am a person who first let oneself be invincible, then embarks again. "Lei once described his adolescence mentality.

Lei, December 16, 1969, was born in Hubei Xiantao, "I was a good child, good student, root red Miaozheng." "In the middle school, he was surrounded by a very strong learning atmosphere," We are also pretty good at Xiantao Middle School. 6 classes tested 17 Tsinghua, Peking University, my deskmate was admitted to the Peking University, the same deskmate on the Tsinghua University. ”

1987 this year's college entrance examination, because the friend filled out the computer professional, "for future and friends still have the common language" lei also selected the same professional, entered the Wuhan University computer department. Previously, he had used Apple's old computer, but did not think his future would be related to computers.

One day, he read the "Fire of Silicon Valley" book in the Wuhan University Library, the first edition of which was released in 1984, and described the "only and most legitimate accumulated wealth of this century" (venture capital, John

The stories of those people, including gates and Jobs ' early entrepreneurial saga. "If someone kills Bill Gates, the development of the computer industry will go back two years," says Dickheize, a computer retailer in the book. ”

I don't know how lei was reading this, and he later said he loved Steve Jobs, who had done the right thing with gates, "The 80 's was Steve Jobs ' time, he was the world's it hero, and it was no less influential than today." In the early 90, even Gates said he was just the second of jobs. ”

"Fire in Silicon Valley" also describes how Apple completed its first business: one day, Jobs met Paul Treille, who was running a small electronics store that later became the first U.S. computer retail chain, the bit shop. After looking through Apple's first Apple-type computer, Trail said "keep in touch" with Mr. Jobs. The next day, Steve Jobs, wearing his slippers, came to the trail store and said, "I want to keep in touch with you." "Want to sell his product. His trail, however, made a 500-dollar order to 50, but required delivery within 30 days. Jobs and his partner, Wozniak, then started a busy assembly job, and Jobs called his sister to help. They finished the delivery 1 days before the expiry of the contract and made the first bucket of Apple gold.

"I was deeply drawn to the story of Steve Jobs. After playing for a long time in Wuhan Electronic Street, I feel good and begin to dream: Dream to write a software running on every computer in the world, dream of starting a software company that is the most cow in the world. "The fire of Silicon Valley gives me the inspiration that if you have a dream, you might as well be a world-class company," Lei said. ”

"Convulsion Drift Hundred Days, the scene Chi Xi flow." "Blink to the university grade four, Lei began and Wang Quanguo, Li Ruchong and other people founded three color company."

"I thought that jobs and gates were successful in college, why couldn't I?" thought these, suddenly blood boiling, brain dizzy. Today in retrospect, it seems so strange, we seem to have not discussed at all, open the company who invested money, what to do after the opening, what to earn money and so on. It's really ' how bold people are and how big they are '. "Lei said.

"Four people, 25% per person, everyone is happy. Not a few days, the problem comes, everything needs to be discussed repeatedly, to later, and even re-elected two times the general manager. ”

Lei this description of the three-color company's management structure.

Their product is a kind of imitation Jinshan Hancock, but then appeared a larger than their companies, their products pirated, and the company can make similar products to do more, the price is lower.

Lei said, "It seems our team is very strong, at most when there are 14 people, the scope of the business is very wide, sold computers, do imitation Hancock, and even take the job of typing printing." "But in fact, the three-color companies are struggling, do not say that the company operation, even if they are faced with Shami life situation." One day, a few people stay together, looking at each other, suddenly a partner to say that they can go to the canteen chef play Mahjong, win some meal ticket back.

As a result, the bombast said that his mahjong playing good classmate is really not a wave of fame, quickly get back a pile of meal tickets. Since then, really no money, lei they sent him to play Mahjong win meal tickets.

Six months later, the three-color company could not go on, they decided to split up. When the company's assets were counted, Lei and Wang had a total of 286 computers and printers, Li Ruchong a 386 computer.

The company closed the next day is a sunny day, walking on the Cherry Blossom Road, thin beam from the trees in the mall sprinkled down, according to Lei, let him feel a relief, "Life is so beautiful, really relaxed ah!" The nightmare days finally passed, ushered in a new life. ”

The failure of the tri-color company clearly changed Lei's entrepreneurial philosophy, years later, he said that the entrepreneurial model of college students do not advocate discouraged, "we have to consider the national conditions of China, we and the United States are really very different conditions, our education in fact, the quality and ability of education is relatively weak, so out of business, the success rate is very low, And maybe we encourage our students to start a business and delay the study that he should have. ”

But the time flows like arrows, Qizhi the heavenly song like the bow. "University career is close, this period of time to lei left a very deep impression, later he had recalled," dream to Wu, think of Cherry Garden, Sakura Boulevard, Old Library, science building ... Wu, full of my youthful years. "

"I was a little ambitious more than 10 years ago, want to do something big, a small stall for me is not attractive, so joined the Jinshan." Lei once explained why he chose to join Jinshan Company in 1992.

Jinshan period, for Lei is a period full of hardships glorious years. Here, he led the Jinshan company once with gates of Microsoft for a long time game, 2007 in the Gold belt listed, Lei once left the Jinshan.

Lei, who left the Golden Hill, was once again attracted by a man who returned to Apple.
