Zhou: It's great to see Steve Jobs's success today, I've recently summed up Steve Jobs ' success, and there are many reasons for success, such as focusing on user experience and product design, focus, focus, and micro-innovation. Everyone has their own understanding of Steve Jobs's success, but I think the most important thing is Jobs ' self-reflection. In fact, Jobs went through a lot of failures, but learned a lot from his failures and never gave up asking questions: Steve Jobs was a symbol of Apple, a time when he was great and radical.　　Do you think business is to be conservative or radical?　　Zhou: I'm afraid to judge other companies, but in the IT industry, one thing is timeless, it is the need for constant innovation to be able to catch up with change.　　Question: is not every successful person should have the courage to face and accept failure, so as to enjoy the success of the results. Zhou: Success is accidental, failure is inevitable.　　Every successful person must experience failure, failure is the mother of success is very correct.　　Question: How do you think about the value of a spiritual leader to a company or an entire industry? Zhou: Although many companies dream of making a company that doesn't rely on individuals, if a company matures to that point, the company will often become mediocre and not make a big mistake, but there will be no significant innovation. So a spiritual leader like Steve Jobs, or a hero, is very important.　　Heroes can make history. Question: Zhou Total, you think the success of Apple, jobs personal canHow much is the force accounted for? Zhou: I think it's 40%, 30% is his team, and the remaining 30% is the brand that Apple has built up over the years.　　It can also be said that without Apple, there would be no jobs.　　Question: At the zenith of the sun, why should it be returned? Zhou: The first is health, jobs is a perfectionist, painstaking work, the CEO may have a big impact on health, and second he retreated to give the succession of the team to leave the running-in time. As long as he is in good health, he will be able to provide the current team with spiritual support, to escort Apple.　　Third, Jobs has reached the pinnacle of life, people can not always go up, so Jiliuyongtui is also a great wisdom, know how to choose and retreat.　　Question: What will happen to the future without Steve Jobs ' Apple? Zhou: I think Steve Jobs is just a bad CEO, but he's still going to be chairman, and he wants to continue to escort Apple's new management team for a while. The culture he created for Apple will continue, so I don't think Apple will decline.　　Apple is already a great company, why should we expect myths to be repeated forever?　　Question: Why didn't old Joe wait until after the iphone 5 conference to step down? Zhou: This is all a little trick, today for Apple, a product is not so important, iPhone5 should be successful, jobs to retire first, should be to create opportunities for the team.　　Now the team can run well, the long-term development of Apple should be the most important. Question: General Zhou, hello, talk about jobs that is the current IT industry's leading figures, but why Zhou always said that his retreat is the pursuit of the price of perfection? What kind of restrictions did the pursuit of perfection bring to jobs?　　Please give a general analysis of the week.　　Zhou: The pursuit of perfection, do things on the heart, do the product will be painstaking. Question: Did jobs have anything to do with you?　　Out！ Zhou: Jobs has something to do with each of us, because we are all using his products to learn his spirit.　　I would like to share some of the learning jobs, but also for China to have more enterprises to make more and better products. Question: Jobs once said: "I think it's stupid to lead a team to make collective decisions." This will delay the market time of the product, but also the performance of shirking responsibility.　　"So many magazines have interpreted him as a dictatorship, so how do you see it?" he said. Zhou: Jobs is dictatorship, and that's his personal style, and we can cite many examples of success in collective decision-making.　　Each enterprise must according to own actual situation to decide the decision-making way, but is not following, has the kind study kind. Question: Excuse me, will China produce such a great company as Apple? Would it produce a man as great as Steve Jobs?　　If so, what is the company, in your opinion? Zhou: I am more pessimistic about this question, not in the near future. This is because our culture is less tolerant of people like Steve Jobs,The values of our society are too unitary and materialistic. I hope we can work together to create an environment that encourages innovation, tolerance, and motivation for young entrepreneurs, and allows for differnet.　　Perhaps half a century from now, there may be a man like Mr. Jobs in China. Question: Again: Many of your internet views are very sharp and very original, and have been the practice of testing, I also admire you! What do you think about the PK between the iOS and Android systems when Jobs is back?　　Some time ago, Google bought a motorcycle, the move to the current mobile phone, especially the smart mobile phone market will have a impact?　　Zhou: This shows that everyone is learning the Apple model, especially at the product level.　　Question: Steve Jobs is a paranoid, do you think that paranoia is in China's current internet business people?　　Zhou: It seems that not much, because at least on the surface of our entrepreneurs after the success of the more comprehensive, more balanced, but no paranoid spirit, not the pursuit of perfect perseverance, it is difficult to make perfect products. Question: Mr Liu once said that Jobs was bad-tempered and dictatorial and didn't pay enough attention to the Chinese market. Now that he has retreated, will Apple be more focused on the Chinese market?　　Or do you think jobs has paid enough attention to the Chinese market?　　Zhou: Apple's revenue in China this year should be more than 10 billion dollars, I think whoever does the CEO will pay attention to China. Zhou: Thank you, time is limited, a lot of problems. Many people have their own judgment, there are 10,000 people, there are 10,000 jobs. Through micro-blog This kind of fragmented communication, easy to quote out of context, I will take the time to study the experience of jobs summed up into several blogs, then share with you.
