When Jobs Meets Inamori Kazuo

It is said that whenever a person dies, there will be a star in the sky. Then, if Jobs goes, will there be a bright star in the sky?

It's kind of like the drama of Guan Gong Qin Qiong. What happens to these two heroes?

Compared to Jobs, in fact, Inamori Kazuo's business achievements are not inferior. After 7 years of establishment, KYOCERA became the core supplier of the IBM 360 computer, and the 360 computer was the peak of the IT industry at that time. In the sixteenth years of entrepreneurship, KYOCERA exceeded SONY and became the highest market in Japan. Now he has thrown away his fame and fortune, and has just made his way to the rescue of Japan Airlines.

However, Inamori Kazuo has no such young fans, because he is not cool at all. He never wears a round collar. T-shirt Jeans and his speeches are mostly read by the book. Inamori Kazuo has visited China several times a year. Unlike Jobs, he is too lazy to look around the 9 million 600 thousand square kilometers of the East.

In search of "Sheng Sheng Fu" and "Jobs" in Chinese, Inamori Kazuo's record is at least 5% of that of Jobs, which is converted to English search, and Inamori Kazuo is less than 1/1000 of Steve Jobs.

　　 However, behind such a huge contrast, there are hidden Interconnections:

Jobs and Inamori Kazuo, who had been terminally ill, turned around in the doorway of heaven, glanced at it, and turned back to earth. They are able to face life and death in a calm way. They can examine business ethics and business logic from the height of heaven. Jobs and rice Sheng and Fu both learn Zen and meditation to avoid the hustle and bustle of the world and return to the essence of human social problems. Jobs's wisdom is directed at the heart; Inamori Kazuo uses the sword of "self interest and benefit" to remove the fog of business.

Jobs said that in the past 33 years, he asked himself in the mirror every morning: "If today is the last day of my life, will I be willing to do what I planned to do today?"

Inamori Kazuo said, "I am converted to Zen because Zen attaches great importance to the mind and soul. At the beginning, Shakya Muni was meditative and enlightened under the bodhi tree, so he understood the truth of the universe and penetrated all the laws of the universe.

I think this is the real interconnection between Jobs and Inamori Kazuo. Their unique experience enables them to take away the colored glasses of selfish desires and understand the essence of business.

So I understand why Jobs didn't do it. market Investigation. Conventional market Research is far from Jobs's vision of overlooking the business world from heaven, and less of the insights he got from taking off colored glasses while sitting in meditation.

From this, I also understand why Inamori Kazuo can successfully create second KDDI of the world's top 500 enterprises. He questioned his motives every day for three months, until he was sure that he had no distraction. Only then could he see clearly the commercial truth covered by the selfish desires of his competitors.

At the gates of heaven, God does not ask the 3 question. God does not ask how big your business is; it will ask you how much harm you have done in the process of growing up. God doesn't ask how strong your business is; he will ask you if you treat your customers and employees well after being strong. God does not ask how long your business is; it will ask you how much oil, gas, coal, fresh water and fresh air that you have consumed for so long.

Today we need a group of introspective entrepreneurs and scholars. We may not be lucky to have a one-day trip to heaven, nor do we all learn Zen, but it may be valuable to try to answer the above questions. {page_break}

　　 Perhaps there will be a fancy dress ball.

There is no doubt that Jobs will bring his fans to play, and Inamori Kazuo has secret weapons. "Sheng he" has 5600 entrepreneurs in the world. These people are no less loyal to Inamori Kazuo than Apple fans. We have seen the power of Sheng and Shu in a card to save Japan Airlines. Each entrepreneur only needs to commit 100, that is, 560 thousand air tickets and 560 thousand warm cards.

In this society obscuring by selfish desires, people need such costumes as well as meditation and self-discipline behind them.
