If you start a business just for success and money, can you accept failure?

No. Updates are fast and ad-free.

How can you accept failure?

It's because of persistence, love for what you do, a stubborn "stupidity". In entrepreneurship, the process is always more important than the end.

Yang Zhiyuan's speech at the Chiba Business School was brilliant, winning applause from the students and being teased by Li Jiaming as chicken soup for the soul a few hours later.

"Are you starting a business for success and money?"

Li Jiaming, who was making tea, was slightly stunned, when it comes to this matter, his own business is really aimed at success and money. From the earliest mountain families to later Sohu, Lifang, Hanhua, Ali ...... , not because I like them, but because I know that they will succeed and bring me countless fame and fortune.

Although he was slightly stunned, Li Jiaming did not show any flaws, even if Yang Zhiyuan was staring at his every move. Continuing to finish the tea very elegantly, Li Jiaming picked up the teacup by himself and continued to mock: "The truth is right, but there is no use for eggs, commonly known as natural eggs." ”

Even the basic etiquette was gone, and Yang Zhiyuan, who was smiling, also picked up the delicate tea like jade, and sipped the tea and said, "Tell me about it?"

The three elements of entrepreneurship, a good idea, a good shareholder, and a good CEO, the rest are subjective factors that cannot determine the success or failure of entrepreneurship. ”

Li Jiaming's words were mocking, but Yang Zhiyuan didn't care, this matter started from him, if this bit of tongue has to fight, then it would be too much of a failure. Although he is a yellow-skinned and white-hearted banana man in Li Jiaming's mouth, the influence of traditional culture on him is still not shallow, otherwise he would not have used the program twice to break his promise and give the other party appropriate compensation. Although he was optimistic about its potential and Li Jiaming's ability to invest in Hanhua in the first place, he was not without guilt for his friends after breaking his promise, after all, they were far from friends when Li Jiaming played tricks on Sohu's affairs. At this point, although Yang Zhiyuan also lost his father in childhood, and his life as a child and teenager was not so rich, he is still much higher than Li Jiaming in terms of bottom line.

After a few words of ridicule from Li Jiaming, Yang Zhiyuan joked: "Are you addicted to too much?"

The bigger the ability, the smaller the temper, and Li Jiaming has long lost his temper, especially when this kind of tantrum can't solve the problem. After fully expressing his dissatisfaction, Li Jiaming also resumed his previous etiquette, and when he saw that people had finished drinking, he picked up a cup of tea and handed it over, and said: "Brother Zhiyuan, I can guess what you think, and I know what you want to do, but do you know the consequences?"

"Either, either, that's it".

There is also the style of imitating one's own speech, that is, knowing the consequences, but the two sides are broken, which is not in the interests of Hanhua. Even if Yahoo goes into decline after this battle, it will not do Hanwha any good, and it will only be cheaper and potential opponents.

Therefore, Li Jiaming made his last effort and reminded: "Zhiyuan, do you know that the First World War can be avoided?"

The conflict of interests, the conclusion of alliances, and the outbreak of nationalism determined that a war would inevitably break out, but Yang Zhiyuan understood the meaning of these words, and also reminded: "Jiaming, my doctorate is only one step away. ”

It was still a few days ago, if he put himself in his place, he would have made the same decision, but Li Jiaming still wanted to give it a try. He believed that human weakness could only be suppressed, but it could not be eradicated. With his understanding of Yang Zhiyuan, this is a person who is a little cowardly in his bones and believes in religion, and he will hesitate at a critical moment.

Pretending to sigh, Li Jiaming put down the teacup in his hand and said lonely: "Alas, I have finally come to this point."

Regardless of whether this is true or not, but after many years of old friends have come to this point, Yang Zhiyuan is also somewhat gloomy, and said after a while: "I haven't thought about it, but I'm sure you have thought about it."

"I said I didn't think about it, at least not before you decided to force your way into Apple's board, do you believe it?"

I don't believe it, but I don't believe it completely, Li Jiaming's private morality is too good, which even Yang Zhiyuan, who is about to become an opponent, admires his benevolence and righteousness towards his friends. If he stood in Li Jiaming's position by himself, he would not be so generous and generous to his friends, let alone make a promise in the ancient books.

"I believe that even if we are on opposite sides, as long as you say it, I will believe it. ”

Insincere!

Forget it, as long as you can hesitate a little, it can be regarded as a success in your own life.

"Zhiyuan, let me tell you a truth, if you think it is reasonable, you can listen to it, and if you feel bored, forget it. ”

"Please advise".

I can't talk about advice, it's just an analysis of the pros and cons.

GCA has a lot of cooperation with Yahoo, computing cloud represents the near future, and artificial intelligence represents the future. Relying on the foundation's investment over the years, regardless of the cost of work, Li Jiaming has obtained a large number of basic patents, and these patents can choke the necks of many companies in the future. If Yahoo chooses to be the enemy of Hanhua now, it may be able to expand its business success, but it is certain that it will lose a further future.

"You don't have to doubt my determination, even once my cousin forms a competitive relationship with me, I will not hesitate to let Ma Huateng let go, let alone a friend. ”

Even if you don't say it, it will be the truth, Yang Zhiyuan smiled coldly and mocked: "Taking a step back, if Yahoo gives up on Apple, our cooperation will still continue, and the premise is that Yahoo is in a subordinate position and Hanhua is in a dominant position." Is there a mistake in my understanding?"

Quite right, wealth only makes sense if it represents control over a resource, otherwise it is just a string of numbers, but Li Jiaming will not admit it directly, because it involves the dignity of a company or the other party.

"I don't think so, Foxconn is OEM for us Hanhua, and also for Huarong, Huawei and other mobile phone manufacturers, but our relationship is not subordinate but interdependent. In other words, without us at GCA, they still have Foxconn, but it takes a while to find orders.

Far afar, times have changed. This is an era of mutual cooperation, and the future will only be different in the division of labor, not an era of control and control at every turn. ”

Clever words!

Yang Zhiyuan smiled again and asked rhetorically, "Then and eggs?"

Then there is really no way, no one is sure of the distant future, even if they have a lot of basic patents for artificial intelligence, they dare not guarantee that they will master the future of artificial intelligence. Because geniuses and wizards are always emerging, just killing potential opponents is only the worst option in desperation, and the most reliable is to discover, cooperate or annex, and finally merge.

This time it was a real long sigh, Li Jiaming reached out and picked up the remote control on the table, pressed the button to block all the surrounding electronic signals, and then said gloomily: "Yang Zhiyuan, think about it one last time, there is no turning back when you start a war, Hanhua and Yahoo will have to fall down!"

Yang Zhiyuan's face also became gloomy, and he said word by word: "You threaten me?"

Sort of, although this guy is known as the god of Yahoo, he is not a god after all, and the board of directors of Yahoo is not monolithic. Just make the directors and investors realize that the future may be good, but the reality will definitely be cruel, and there may be room for maneuver.

"No, I'm just telling you a fact. Once the war starts, we will do whatever it takes to kill Yahoo, just like you did when you encircled Google. You don't have to doubt my determination, you should know that in the tradition of our East Asian nations, traitors are far more hateful than enemies, and the genes of Hanhua are injected by me and Wang Zhidong. ”

People have an aura, you can say that it is a psychological effect, but Li Jiaming suddenly let go of his restrained momentum, and the kind of heroic color that looks down on the world made Yang Zhiyuan's heart cold. The same desire wins, this is one of the essences of the culture of the mother country, under the pull of differentiation, Yang Zhiyuan did not dare to guarantee whether Yahoo could still unite as one, but he was sure that Hanhua would be united.
