Some institutional investors value it at around HK$30 billion, but some institutional investors who are enthusiastic about Nayuki still maintain the previous valuation, with some even giving it a valuation of HK$40 billion.</p><p>Some large institutional investors told Tencent News' \"First Line\" that they would consider placing orders if the valuation is reasonable.

Tencent News' \"Perspective\" has learned that many institutions hope to become cornerstone investors in Nayuki, and the final list of cornerstone investors will be finalized after the hearing next week.</p><p><b>Nayuki suffered losses exceeding 100 million yuan in three years, raising concerns about its profitability.</b></p><p>In previous non-trading roadshows, investors' concerns about Nayuki's future profitability were particularly focused. The management's answer is easy to understand: as scale increases, costs will be diluted, and profits will also increase.</p><p>Nayuki is currently still operating at a loss. Financial reports show that Nayuki's revenue was RMB 1.087 billion, RMB 2.502 billion and RMB 2.115 billion in 2018, 2019 and the first three quarters of 2020, respectively, while its net losses were RMB 69.73 million, RMB 39.68 million and RMB 27.51 million, respectively.</p><p>Like other fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG) industries, investors are paying close attention to data such as same-store sales and same-store profit in Nayuki's prospectus.</p><p>According to Nayuki's prospectus, 49 stores met the requirements of operating for no less than 300 days in 2018 and 2019. Looking at data from 2018 and 2019 alone, Nayuki's same-store net profit was RMB 1.453 million and RMB 1.414 million, respectively.</p><p>An institutional investor who has long invested in the consumer sector told Tencent News' \"Perspective\" that, generally speaking, a reasonable range for same-store profit margin is around 20%.</p><p>Based on data from the first two full fiscal years, Nayuki's single-store profits were quite good. According to the prospectus, Nayuki's same-store profit margin was 24.9%, 25.3% and 12.6% in 2018, 2019 and the first three quarters of 2020, respectively. In 2020, the same-store profit margin was significantly affected by the pandemic.</p><p>However, manpower accounts for a large proportion of Nayuki's costs. Nayuki's prospectus shows that its labor costs remain high. In 2018, employee costs were 340 million yuan, accounting for 31.3% of total costs, while in 2019, employee costs were 750 million yuan, accounting for 30% of total costs. This expense is comparable to Nayuki's material costs, which were HK$380 million and HK$910 million in 2018 and 2019, respectively.</p><p>In other words, as domestic labor costs gradually rise in the future, Nayuki's labor expenses will continue to increase. More importantly, Nayuki's stores are all concentrated in first- and second-tier and near-second-tier cities, where labor costs will remain high for the foreseeable future.</p><p>Although Nayuki's total costs will be slightly diluted as it expands in the future, the profitability per store may decrease as Nayuki continues to expand into other cities after its stores in first- and second-tier cities become saturated. This means that Nayuki will find it difficult to maintain a single-store profit margin exceeding 20%.</p><p>An institutional investor who mainly invests in the consumer sector in the secondary market told Tencent News' \"Perspective\" that after studying Nayuki's data, his institution ultimately decided not to invest.</p><p>There are quite a few such investors, and some are looking forward to Heytea, a competitor that will also be listed in Hong Kong in the future. Some investors who have reviewed Heytea's financial data told Tencent News' \"Perspective\" that compared to Nayuki, Heytea's profitability is much better, its cost control is better, and it is more suitable for investors who hold it for the long term.</p>","source":"TXXW","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Nayuki plans to hold a Hong Kong Stock Exchange hearing on May 13 and is expected to list in mid-to-early June.</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 12.5px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\nNayuki plans to hold a Hong Kong Stock Exchange hearing on May 13 and is expected to list in mid-to-early June.\n</h2>\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n<p class=\"head\">\n<strong class=\"h-name small\">腾讯新闻</strong><span class=\"h-time small\">2021-05-08 15:05</span>\n</p>\n</h4>\n</header>\n<article>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e96e2889a7577f7ebb7f4c3b53fef19d\" tg-width=\"766\" tg-height=\"503\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">On May 8, Tencent News' \"Perspective\" exclusively learned that Nayuki plans to hold a hearing on May 13.

Some investors who have reviewed Heytea's financial data told Tencent News' \"Perspective\" that compared to Nayuki, Heytea's profitability is much better, its cost control is better, and it is more suitable for investors who hold it for the long term.</p>\n<div class=\"bt-text\">\n\n\n<p> source：<a href=\"https://new.qq.com/omn/20210508/20210508A062YL00.html\">腾讯新闻</a></p>\n\n\n</div>\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e96e2889a7577f7ebb7f4c3b53fef19d","relate_stocks":{},"source_url":"https://new.qq.com/omn/20210508/20210508A062YL00.html","is_english":false,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"1133900125","content_text":"5月8日，腾讯新闻《潜望》独家获悉，奈雪计划于5月13日聆讯。按照港交所上市流程，奈雪或将在6月中上旬完成上市。关于此次IPO募资的具体额度，预计奈雪将在5月最后一周确定。此外，腾讯新闻《潜望》获悉，奈雪此次计划的募资额约6亿美元。以其发行15%股份来计，奈雪预计估值约40亿美元，折合港币约310亿。截至发稿，腾讯新闻《潜望》暂未能联系奈雪及其保荐人摩根大通等置评。投资者忧奈雪估值过高奈雪在过去5年中，共进行了5次融资。除了天图资本最早开始连续三轮投资外，奈雪于2020年又获得了PAG太盟投资集团等1亿美金的融资。彭博报道称，奈雪在获得PAG太盟投资的融资后，其估值达到20亿美元。这也是奈雪在IPO前的最后一轮募资。也就是说，相较于IPO前最后一轮融资，奈雪当前的估值翻了约一倍。一些大型机构投资者对腾讯新闻《潜望》表示，奈雪是一家不错的公司，但是担心最后确定的估值太贵。之前市场传闻，奈雪估值为350亿港元。相较于奈雪今年2月启动上市时的市场情绪，当前机构投资者对于奈雪的估值较为谨慎。部分机构投资者对其估值约300亿港元，但是也有部分热衷于奈雪的机构投资者则依旧按照之前的估值，甚至还有给出400亿港元估值的。一些大型机构投资者对腾讯新闻《一线》表示，若是估值合理，会考虑下单。这些大型机构投资者的下单价格会直接影响奈雪最后定价区间。过去这一周，不少机构投资者都在紧张等待奈雪上市团队及管理层的决定，即最后敲定基石名单。腾讯新闻《潜望》获悉，希望做奈雪基石投资者的机构不少，最终的基石名单将在下周聆讯结束后敲定。奈雪三年亏损超1亿 投资者忧其赚钱能力在此前的非交易路演中，投资者对于奈雪的担忧比较集中：未来赚钱的能力。管理层给出的回答也很好理解，即随着规模起来，成本会摊薄，利润也会起来。奈雪当前依旧处于亏损状态。财报显示，奈雪于2018年、2019年以及2020年前三季度的收入分别为10.87亿、25.02亿元、21.15亿元，而其净亏损分别为6973万、3968万、2751万元。和其他快消行业一样，投资者对于奈雪招股书中的同店销售额以及同店利润等数据较为关注。奈雪招股书显示，2018年及2019年满足营业时间不少于300天的店铺为49家。仅以2018年以及2019年全年的数据来看，奈雪的同店净利润分别为145.3万元以及141.4万元。一位长期投资消费领域的机构投资者对腾讯新闻《潜望》表示，一般来说，同店利润率的合理区间大概是20%左右。前两个完整财年的数据来看，奈雪的单店利润还不错。招股书显示，奈雪的同店利润率于2018年、2019年以及2020年前三个季度分别为24.9%、25.3%以及12.6%。其中，2020年的同店利润率受疫情影响比较大。但是奈雪的成本开支中人力占比很大。奈雪的招股书显示，其人力成本居高不下，2018年员工成本为3.4亿元，占总成本的31.3%，2019年员工成本则为7.5亿，占比总成本的30%。这一项开支和奈雪的材料成本不差上下，后者2018年及2019年分别为3.8亿元及9.1亿元。也就是说，未来随着国内人力成本逐渐上涨，奈雪需要承担的人力开支将会越来越高。更为重要的是，奈雪的店铺全部集中在一二线及准二线城市，这些城市的人力成本在可预见的未来会持续高企。尽管未来奈雪随着规模的扩大，总成本会有些许摊薄，但是一二线城市店铺饱和后，奈雪继续下沉其他城市的过程中，单店效益有可能递减。这就意味着奈雪将难以继续维持单店利润率超过20%。一位主要在二级市场投资消费领域的机构投资者对腾讯新闻《潜望》表示，研究完奈雪的数据后，其所在的机构最后决定不投资。这样的投资者不在少数，也有一些人期待后续也将赴港上市的竞品喜茶。一些看过喜茶财务数据的投资者对腾讯新闻《潜望》透露，相较于奈雪来说，喜茶的盈利能力要比奈雪好很多，成本控制做得更好，更适合长期持有的投资者。","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":4253,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":107740258,"gmtCreate":1620543346474,"gmtModify":1704344834372,"author":{"id":"3577099045897802","authorId":"3577099045897802","name":"知了2010","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/94af26710b772ae5fc6be0ee324fa309","crmLevel":12,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3577099045897802","authorIdStr":"3577099045897802"},"themes":[],"title":"","htmlText":"！","listText":"！","text":"！","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/107740258","repostId":"1149370314","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1149370314","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1620524058,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1149370314?lang=en_US&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-05-09 09:34","market":"hk","language":"zh","title":"No one is smarter than Bill Gates, but Steve Jobs is often remembered.","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1149370314","media":"左林右狸","summary":"引言：聪明的人总能赢得当下，有想象力的人引领未来。盖茨值得羡慕，乔布斯常被怀念。\n\n今天借比尔·盖茨的离婚公案八一八我们知道的比尔盖茨的那些风闻以及这件事情在科技史上的影响。\n一、聪明人比尔盖茨\n如果","content":"<p>Introduction: Smart people always win the present, and imaginative people lead the future. Gates is enviable, and Steve Jobs is often remembered. Today, let's take a look at Bill Gates' divorce case and learn about the rumors surrounding him and his impact on the history of technology.</p><p><b>I. Bill Gates, the Smart Man</b></p><p>If there was one word to describe Bill Gates, it would be smart.</p><p>Because of Jack Ma, the lakeside is widely known. In the United States, there is also a lakeside, Lakeside High School, a private high school next to Lake Washington in Seattle, where Gates attended. Gates is naturally shy and not good at talking to people, but he has a superhuman talent for computers: Gates wrote the seating arrangement software at Lakeside Middle School. As a result, Gates is always surrounded by the girls he likes during class, and he is often the only one in the class to enjoy this treatment. Gates' talent was also discovered by a commercial company, which asked him to help pick out bugs. Gates was so good that he quickly caused the commercial company to lose the DEC order because he discovered hundreds of bugs in a short period of time, and the printed list was three hundred pages thick. Gates was one of the teenage hackers. At the time, the CDC had built a national computer network, Cybernet, which the CDC claimed was extremely secure. Gates then used a terminal at Waddington University to hack into the system at the time. He was later caught by the CDC and had to be asked to leave the computer for a year.</p><p>To add to that, Gates was able to freely roam the University of Washington largely because he knew another young computer hacker who was two years older than him, Paul Allen, a student of the University of Washington library and his lakeside senior. Later, the two of them founded Microsoft together.</p><p>Despite demonstrating superhuman talent in computer science, Bill Gates did not choose to study computer science at university because of his lawyer father. Instead, he chose to study law at Harvard University. Out of a maximum admission score of 1600, Bill Gates scored 1590. Allen got a perfect score on the SAT, but he chose to enter the University of Washington in his hometown. Allen is also a smart person.</p><p>Gates' ex-wife, Melinda, is also a smart person. Her father was a contract engineer for NASA, and the family had a strong academic atmosphere. When Melinda was in her senior year of high school, her math teacher equipped the school with several Apple IIs. She went to university to study programming at night and taught programming to students at school during the day. Melinda wrote some basic small programs, which is the source of her interest in computers.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/30b7e83cc6b6c82e7a8b618f0f0cbc2b\" tg-width=\"474\" tg-height=\"264\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p>A few years later, Melinda earned a double bachelor's degree in computer science and economics from Duke University, then joined Microsoft and pursued an MBA at Duke University's Fuqua School of Business. She was the only woman in this MBA class. Melinda is very smart. When she first started dating Bill Gates, they played math games together, but Gates could never beat her. The first time she played \"Clues\" (an American version of a murder mystery game), Melinda won big. This may be the beginning of Gates falling in love.</p><p>Bill Gates is always attracted to smart people, and his ex-girlfriend Wimbledon is also a smart person.</p><p>Wimbride was born on November 1, 1950, five years older than Gates. He completed his education by working as a cocktail bar waiter, earning a bachelor's degree in mathematics and business administration from St. Catherine's University and a master's degree in education from St. Thomas University in St. Paul, Minnesota.</p><p>Wimbride's first job was as a programmer at the Federal Reserve. Thirteen months later, she left the Fed with three colleagues to found an accounting software company called Open Systems. The company initially invested $5 million and was sold six years later for $15 million.</p><p>She was also a pioneer of early venture capital in the United States. Zhang Yuzhou, an old friend of the Zuolin Youli channel and a veteran in the industry, wrote the following story on his WeChat public account \"Afterwards Settling Accounts\": At a venture capitalist event in the 1980s, Wimbride was one of the few women present. In the double room assigned to her by the organizers, the other person was a female performance \"artist\" on stage, who was actually a stripper. This shows how scarce the number of female venture capitalists was in the early days.</p><p>Wimbledon and Bill Gates met at the Ben Rosen-Esther Dyson computer conference in 1984 and dated and lived together for three years. After their breakup, Wimbridge's career took off, and she co-founded Hammer-Wimbrid Investments with former NBA star John Hammer.</p><p>There are rumors that the breakup between Gates and Wimbledon was prevented by Gates' mother because Wimbledon was too old to get married. However, Wimbledon has publicly stated that Mary Gates gave her excellent advice when she was a young venture capitalist, and that Wimbledon received a handwritten thank-you note every time he saw Mary.</p><p>As for whether Wimbledon has withdrawn from Gates' emotional world, that remains an unsolved mystery. Wimbledon was involved in Melinda and Gates' marriage. They had a private agreement before their marriage that Gates would spend a week's vacation with Wimbledon every year, and Melinda was not allowed to interfere. Gates and Wimbledon did indeed vacation at their beach cabin on the Bund in North Carolina every year. Gates said that although he spends some time with Wimbledon every year, the two only talk about computer problems together. The clever Bill Gates enjoys the blessings of having everyone in his own way.</p><p>Rumor has it that Wimbride once clashed with Melinda over her involvement in the Gates Foundation. To Melinda's surprise, her husband stood firmly on Wimbride's side. That time, Melinda finally couldn't take it anymore, lost control of her emotions, and yelled at Bill Gates: Am I not tolerant enough?</p><p>What the Zuo Lin You Li Channel really wants to know is whether Gates and Melinda's three children knew about Wimbridge's existence before. After today, they will definitely all know. What about before? However, their youngest daughter is already 18 years old, old enough to face everything in the world, both good and ugly.</p><p>Gates' ability to become the world's richest person is closely linked to the mother of his former national bank president's daughter. Numerous reports suggest that Gates' mother, who was on the board of directors of IBM, persuaded IBM to give Microsoft its first order for an operating system, and thus Microsoft began its journey. Actually, this statement is half right. Gates' mother, Mary Gates, is not on the board of IBM, but on the board of the University of Washington. The University of Washington is ranked among the top 20 universities in the United States, not because it is named in Washington, D.C., but because it is located in Seattle, Washington.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/bb1f13e784a02470afbaea928b1a4e43\" tg-width=\"1080\" tg-height=\"810\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p>Seattle is located on the west coast of the United States, bordering Puget Sound and surrounding Lake Washington. Looking west of Seattle, the snow-capped Olympic Mountains are clearly visible, while in the distance to the east are continuous snow-capped mountains. In the southeast, Mount Rainier never melts. The air is fresh, the flowers and trees are lush, and the scenery is pleasant all year round. Many newly wealthy Chinese high-tech companies have established land here. For example, Xing Shanhu, Zhang Yunfan, and so-and-so.</p><p>If we had to nitpick, it would be that compared to the sunny San Francisco Bay Area, Seattle has slightly more rainy days. This is why the buildings in Microsoft's Redmond campus are scattered but have some underlying pattern: to ensure that every programmer's office has a large floor-to-ceiling window to maximize natural light and better enjoy every sunny day.</p><p>Half of the above statement is that the most important order that made Microsoft successful did indeed come from IBM, thanks to Mary Gates' personal connections. Mary was also the first female chair of the board of directors of the National United Roads Charitable Foundation (Gates has a family history of philanthropy), which also included John Opel, then chairman of IBM. During his tenure, John launched the first PC, the IBM 5150, and was looking for a company to help them write an operating system. Mary strongly recommended her son's company to John. Interestingly, when she learned that IBM needed an operating system instead of general-purpose software that Bill Gates and Allen could make, Bill Gates readily agreed that he could do it, which stunned Allen.</p><p>IBM only gave him about half a year, which Gates did to create a difficult problem for him and Allen, and he himself was forced into immense pain.</p><p>The good news was that Allen learned that a programmer named Patterson from Seattle Computer Products had spent four years writing the 86-DOS system. The two of them went to visit Patterson and bought the full copyright to the product from Seattle Computer for $50,000, without revealing its purpose.</p><p>After receiving the system, Gates told his mother that he might not see him for the next six months. Then he led his team to work frantically overtime, transforming the 86-DOS system into an MS-DOS system compatible with IBM computers within six months. In March of the following year, the DOS system passed acceptance, making Microsoft the sole manufacturer of IBM's operating system.</p><p>Moreover, Bill Gates was cunning and signed a non-exclusive licensing agreement with IBM. Ultimately, Microsoft's operating system became the desktop operating system for IBM computers and almost all PCs. Bill Gates is smart enough.</p><p><b>II. Steve Jobs, the disruptor</b></p><p>Bill Gates was born in 1955. According to the book \"Outliers,\" Americans born in 1955 have a higher probability of success than other years. People born in this year caught the wave of the computer revolution at the age of 20 and enjoyed the first rays of dawn. Also born in this year were former Google CEO Eric Schmidt, Sun's two founders, Andy Bertolsheim and Vinod Khosla, and Steve Jobs.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6d339037a6d0c6c2e030c71f0f682542\" tg-width=\"800\" tg-height=\"557\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p>Microsoft and Apple, Bill Gates and Steve Jobs, for a long time, these two companies and these two people were the undisputed giants of the American and even global information industry.</p><p>If Bill Gates is a super smart person who grew up with a silver spoon in his mouth, then Steve Jobs, who was raised by his adoptive parents, is a typical grassroots genius. To compare these two people, to use a football analogy, Bill Gates is Cristiano Ronaldo, while Jobs is Messi.</p><p>According to the Zuo Lin You Li channel, if Steve Jobs hadn't pursued excellence, there would be no Microsoft.</p><p>As is well known, Wozniak saw a cowherd who could run Basic at a homebrew club and decided to assemble his own personal computer. He and Steve Jobs quickly co-founded Apple in April 1976 in Jobs' garage. At the first West Coast Computer Trade Show in 1977, Apple launched the Apple II, a landmark model in the history of personal computers, which was a great success. Four years later, in 1980, Apple went public and became a super rich man of that era.</p><p>It can be said that IBM's personal computer project was partly stimulated by the Apple II, which led to Microsoft's comeback story.</p><p>At this time, Microsoft not only developed software for IBM, but also worked for Apple. In 1982, Apple's annual sales revenue was already $1 billion, while Microsoft's was only $32 million, a significant difference. The turning point came in 1983.</p><p>Because Steve Jobs, striving for excellence, delayed the release of Apple's McKinsh computer by a full year in January 1983, Microsoft was able to quickly switch to providing IBM with a graphical interface operating system after its partnership with Apple ended in November 1983, thus tipping the balance between Apple and IBM in IBM's favor.</p><p>IBM and Apple are fighting a battle between the snipe and the clam, while Microsoft benefits, though it's no smarter than Bill Gates.</p><p>Even with a brilliant move like paying homage to 1984, Jobs couldn't salvage Apple's defeat in the face of IBM's powerful offensive.</p><p>At the same time, Microsoft entered a period of rapid growth.</p><p>Correspondingly, Steve Jobs was ousted from Apple in 1985, and Microsoft went public a year later in 1986.</p><p>By the time Jobs launched the first iPhone in 2006, Bill Gates had announced his retirement. Together, the two led and ultimately ended the entire PC (Internet) era in their own way.</p><p>The two also had many interactions. For example, Jobs long insisted that Microsoft copied Apple's ideas for graphical interface systems, and Apple had been filing lawsuits against Microsoft since the 1980s. Jobs' second company, NeXT, failed because it failed to reach an agreement with Gates and did not receive software support developed by Microsoft. After returning to Apple, Jobs used Apple's right to waive lawsuits to obtain Microsoft's support for Apple's Macintosh computers, and also asked Gates to purchase $150 million in non-voting Apple stock as support.</p><p>Whether Jobs or Gates made a greater contribution to the information industry is a matter of opinion, but when it comes to the groundbreaking influence of the industry, there is no doubt that Jobs had a greater impact. Wozniak designed the extraordinary circuit board and related operating software for the Apple II, which Jobs integrated into a perfect personal computer. The Apple II revolutionized the entire industry, ushering in the home era for computers.</p><p>Founding NeXT and acquiring the graphics team (later renamed Pixar), Steve Jobs originally intended to make a big splash in computer 3D graphics technology, but inadvertently brought about a great revolution in the use of 3D computer graphics in film production, injecting new vitality into the animation industry. Steve Jobs wasn't exactly the mastermind behind 3D animated feature films; this disruptive innovation only earned him half a point.</p><p>Steve Jobs, returning to Apple, truly reached a new crossroads where he could make a significant impact. His exceptional imagination, unparalleled marketing skills, and extraordinary leadership combined to create an Apple whirlwind around the world. After selling 20 million Macintosh computers, Apple launched the iTunes Music Store and the iPod digital music player, reversing the trend of piracy in the music industry through an excellent user experience. Until 2006, Jobs launched his most acclaimed work, the iPhone, which brought multi-touch screens and virtual keyboards to the masses, creating a powerful computing device, an online client terminal, and an enhanced version of the iPod. The iPhone elevated Steve Jobs to a pedestal; it's no exaggeration to say that Jobs single-handedly ushered in the era of the mobile internet.</p><p><b>III. The Super Mansions of Tech Leaders</b></p><p>One of the study abroad programs in Silicon Valley is always a visit to Steve Jobs' birthplace, especially during the National Day holiday, which coincides with the anniversary of Jobs' death (October 4th). Jobs' birthplace is located at 2066 Crist Drive in Los Angeles, where Jobs lived from the age of 14. Jobs' adoptive mother still lives there. On October 28, 2013, the house was designated a historical site by the city council. The chairman of the city council is said to be the wife of one of the founders of Google. The advantage of choosing her as chairman is that someone will always step forward when there are gaps in municipal construction or when public welfare projects are promoted.</p><p>However, visiting Jobs' Paloalto house on Halloween would be the right solution. The tradition of lavish Halloween celebrations in Silicon Valley began with Steve Jobs. It is said that Jobs himself would hide behind the scarecrows, pumpkins, skeletons, and spider webs he visited at his home and suddenly pop out to startle the children who came to ask for candy.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ffcb0046bc26a0f46601dc9d2e714a0c\" tg-width=\"705\" tg-height=\"421\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p>Steve Jobs' house is located on Waverley street in paloalto, which is one of the upscale neighborhoods in Silicon Valley. Larry Page, the founder of Google, lives at 100 on the same street. It's a small world. This area is also home to a female intermediary with close ties to the Chinese internet industry, the sister of Martin, a BAT (Baidu, Alibaba, Tencent) executive.</p><p>Witnesses said that Jobs could often be seen tending to the garden barefoot, wearing a turtleneck and black sweater.</p><p>Before moving to Palo Alto in the mid-1990s, Jobs lived in a century-old Latin-style house in woodside for about a decade, until his wife, Lauren Powell, became pregnant. Jobs loved woodside; he owned more than one house here. Public records show that Powell Jobs owned two properties in woodside, valued at $7.5 million and $10 million respectively. Woodside, as its name suggests, is located on the edge of the woods and separated from Silicon Valley by only a dune street. Jobs' neighbor in Woodside was Oracle boss Erickson. There's a joke about 1986, the year Jobs was depressed after being fired from Apple. One day, Erickson was sleeping in his Woodside home when a peacock broke into the yard and woke him up. Erickson learned that the peacock was raised by his neighbor Jobs, so he ran over and complained. Jobs said, \"Ha, you don't like this bird either.\" The peacock was a gift from my girlfriend, and I need to find a way to get rid of it. The two laughed heartily, became friends, and often went for walks together. Both Steve Jobs and Erickson were fond of Japanese Zen Buddhism. Erickson's luxurious Japanese-style mansion cost a whopping $200 million and has always been a top tech mansion in Silicon Valley and around the world. Erickson's house in Atherton also has Japanese-style gardens.</p><p>Wei Zhe and Ding Lei also have large houses by the forest, which suits their style quite well. The presence of Chinese tech tycoons in Silicon Valley is an interesting topic; we'll discuss it again later.</p><p>There are reports that Jobs also lived in Cupertino, but this is not true. Jobs attended high school in Cupertino, which is why they moved from Mountain View to a place south of losalto near Cupertino. Steve Jobs' last work is a popular landmark in Silicon Valley today—Apple's spaceship headquarters is within walking distance of Jobs' high school.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a5968e872ce2709398b65f77f65b0f17\" tg-width=\"1080\" tg-height=\"622\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p>Gates' Seattle mansion, Shangri-La 2.0, is also a masterpiece. The mansion is located on the Medina Peninsula on the eastern shore of Lake Washington, a peninsula surrounded by water on three sides. Its neighbors are Bezos and a group of Microsoft executives. The Medina Peninsula is home to the smallest city in the United States and the most beautiful female police patrol team in the country. It is said to be specially designed for the island's top billionaires. The reason why the female police officers are required to be beautiful is because they are afraid of scaring children during patrols.</p><p>It seems to be common for executives of super-large companies to live next door to each other. In Silicon Valley, Jack Ma also bought houses there because Masayoshi Son and Jerry Yang owned houses there. Because of Jack Ma, a group of Alibaba executives also bought houses in losalto hill next to Jack Ma's father. As one Alibaba executive aptly put it, living next to the boss and visiting from time to time gives you poor information and resources that are much more valuable than houses. Moreover, the US dollars that Alibaba cashed out after its IPO will not be returned, making buying a house a good investment option.</p><p>Portefino, a top luxury residential area in Shenzhen, has also stood out because of the residence of another Jack Ma, which has attracted a large number of Tencent executives. Both are built by the lake, both offer tranquility amidst the hustle and bustle, and both are peaceful and tranquil. It is precisely birds of a feather flock together and people live together.</p><p>Back to Gates' mansion, Shangri-La 2.0, which covers 66,000 square acres, half of the hill was dug up during construction. Gates spent $97 million on it, and the reception hall alone is 214 square meters. The pets are also unusual; the house houses an endangered protected whale shark.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d7ebf27cbe505fb8ce26da66c717bfb5\" tg-width=\"1080\" tg-height=\"810\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p>The mansion houses a domed private library with a skylight in the middle of the roof that lets in natural light. It houses some of Bill Gates' heirloom treasures and masterpieces, including the script manuscript for Hitchcock's film \"Terror\" and Napoleon's love letter to Josephine, as well as Leonardo da Vinci's \"Leicester Manuscript,\" which contains prophetic scientific theories, which he bought from Christie's in 1994 for $20.8 million. Bill Gates made the manuscript into a VCD and made a fortune at $50 each. No one is smarter than Gates.</p><p>Bill Gates' house is open to visitors, costing $35,000 each time. Although it is expensive, many people still flock to it.</p><p>The most notable feature of this mansion is that it has hosted many celebrities. When President Hu visited the United States in 2006, he visited Microsoft headquarters during the day and attended a dinner hosted by Gates' home that evening. It was at this dinner that the famous Q&A session between Bill Gates and Hu Jintao on the topic of piracy, which later left Chinese domestic software companies sighing, took place.</p><p>The obvious fact after this dinner was that Microsoft had won a $1.2 billion contract from Lenovo, and from then on, Lenovo computers would have to pre-install genuine Windows. The implicit fact is that the Chinese government's software procurement plan has thus shifted, and the newly emerging plan to replace domestically produced office software has been shelved. Not to mention the depth of local operating systems, Bill Gates' dinner has changed the course of China's information industry for at least a decade.</p><p>The person most injured at the banquet was an elderly man named Ni Guangnan, while Mrlu, a stakeholder at the banquet, rose to prominence. But ten years later, in 2015, when another national leader visited Seattle, the same scene did not occur. On the contrary, the mindset and fate of the two old men from ten years ago were reversed. Interested readers can discuss this story on our Knowledge Planet.</p><p><b>IV. Gates and Jobs' Chinese Disciples</b></p><p>Bill Gates' feud with China goes far beyond this. Tsinghua University and Peking University, two of China's top universities, also engaged in a war of words over Bill Gates. The protagonist of the war of words was Microsoft's China Research Institute (later upgraded to Research Asia), established in 1998. The debate was about whether Peking University or Tsinghua University made this the most successful research institute in the history of Chinese science and technology.</p><p>Supporters of Peking University believe that Bill Gates only visited Peking University during his first visit to China in 1994, a three-day trip. However, Tsinghua supporters believe that on the eve of Christmas 1997, Bill Gates visited China again. This time, he visited Tsinghua, another prestigious university in China, and gave a speech at Tsinghua. According to Yang Shiqiang, the former Party Secretary of the Department of Computer Science at Tsinghua University, the student who asked Bill Gates the question at that time was Li Ling, who enrolled in the Department of Computer Science at Tsinghua in 1994. He was called an idol senior by Wang Xiaochuan and a recipient of a series of honors such as Tsinghua's student league branch secretary, grand prize winner, chairman of the department's science and technology association, and first place winner in the Global Mathematical Modeling Competition.</p><p>According to Tsinghua University, Bill Gates was also encouraged by the enthusiasm of Tsinghua students. Upon returning home, he changed his previous plan to go to India and established the Microsoft China Research Institute in Beijing the following year. This is not wrong, but it could also be the seeds sown during his trip to Peking University. Who knows? In any case, for Bill Gates, whether it's Peking University students or Tsinghua University students, they are all dishes on Microsoft's plate.</p><p>Because of writing \"A Brief History of Artificial Intelligence in China,\" we came into contact with three figures of Microsoft Research Asia members, all of whom are very grateful to Bill Gates.</p><p>Jobs never visited China, but that doesn't stop him from having many disciples there. Half of the owners of Chinese domestic mobile phone manufacturers compare themselves to Steve Jobs. Lei Jun of Xiaomi is even jokingly called Lei Jobs. Zhou Hongyi, who has always been obsessed with mobile phones, has discussed the similarities and differences between himself and Steve Jobs with us more than once. Although Huang Zhang of Meizu and Luo Yonghao of Smartisan did not have the same fate as Steve Jobs, they also contracted Jobs' illness. In the smart hardware industry, there are also many super fans of Steve Jobs, including Zhou Jian of UBTECH, Huang Wang of Huami, and his former colleague Wang Wei of Tuman. In fact, Wang Tao of DJI is also a follower of Jobs, but Wang Tao is at least half a disciple of Jobs. When Moritz, a global partner at Sequoia Capital, saw the DJI drone, he exclaimed that it was as impressive as when he saw the McKinsh computer. As a result, Moritz personally came to China to meet Wang Tao and expressed his intention to invest in DJI. Sequoia Capital was an investor in Apple, and Moritz had many interactions with Steve Jobs, even writing books for him. He was considered a close associate of Jobs.</p><p>If we extend the scope beyond mobile phones and smart hardware, we know that Steve Jobs' Chinese disciples include Yang Xiangji of Tap4fun and Nie Yunchen of Heytea.</p><p>Tap4fun is the developer of the mobile game \"Galactic Empire,\" which is known for surpassing \"Angry Birds\" to become the number one revenue chart on the App Store in the United States in 2013. Founder Yang Xiangji said his entrepreneurial journey stemmed from a quote from Steve Jobs when the iPhone was launched: \"The iPhone is everything to everyone.\"</p><p>The company's product and marketing strategy also aligns with Apple's. For example, their dream of making \"Insanely great Games\" is based on Steve Jobs' famous quote \"Keep putting great products,\" and they only make iOS Games, focusing on overseas markets. Huge black-and-white photos of five people hung outside the Tap4fun office door: Martin Luther King Jr., John Lennon, Einstein, and Muhammad Ali on either side, with Steve Jobs in the center.</p><p>Nie Yunchen, the founder of Heytea, always takes Steve Jobs as his role model. He was a loyal Apple fan during his school years. Before the iPad was released and entered China, some media outlets were going to hold an \"iPad Rafting Event\" to invite readers to try out the iPads they bought from overseas. Nie Yunchen was one of the first to go. He also spent some time as a technology editor, covering a wide variety of Apple products. From the very beginning, Heytea has always prioritized products, using real milk and real tea as raw materials. Now, in order to pursue the taste of the tea base, it wants to build its own tea garden and cultivate new tea trees.</p><p>Nie Yunchen followed Steve Jobs' product-first principle, and also followed Jobs' autocratic management practices. Heytea's rapid expansion in the past two years has put considerable pressure on operational process management. In order to introduce new professional managers, Nie Yunchen decisively fired several VP-level executives in charge of business and support departments. They were also long-time employees who had followed the startup from the very beginning. Here's a recommendation of our article studying Heytea cases. We welcome all neighbors to read and offer their guidance.</p><p>Let me tell you a story about Steve Jobs' disciples. The two protagonists of the story are also the big shots mentioned in the disciples paragraph above. To avoid being confusing, they are called pronouns. One year, a house appeared in front of Steve Jobs' house (some said it was vacant land). The temptation to be Jobs' neighbor was quite strong, but the house was not cheap, asking for $10 million. Y's wife took a liking to it and discussed with Y online how to quote it. Y said, \"Let's quote $9 million.\" First, he had checked, and there were hardly any people in the United States who would buy a house of this caliber. Second, he couldn't live in the house for more than a few days. So Wife Y offered $900, but the agent said, \"Sorry, the house was bought by another Chinese person who raised the price.\" When Wife Y asked, she learned that it was her husband's lifelong enemy, L, who bought it. The reason L paid more to buy it wasn't because of L, but because he felt that it was a good thing and a little more expensive wouldn't hurt. It's hard to tell if this story is true or false, but it fits the personas of the two people involved quite well.</p><p>It has to be said that Steve Jobs was truly influential.</p><p>Some people are alive, but they are actually walking corpses; some people are dead, but they will live on in people's hearts forever. The latter refers to people like Steve Jobs.</p><p><b>V. People remember Steve Jobs</b></p><p>Gates certainly has his moments when his cleverness backfires. In the battle for who will take Tiktok, Microsoft, as the overwhelming favorite, was eliminated, which was one such moment.</p><p>Speaking of which, Zhang Yiming and Gates also met once. In September 2015, a national leader paid his first state visit to the United States, and Zhang Yiming was one of the business representatives accompanying the delegation. During this period, at the dinner following the 8th China-US Internet Forum held in Seattle, Zhang Yiming sat next to Gates and excitedly posted a Weibo message: \"I didn't dare ask about products like mobile phones, but I talked to Bill Gates about the future of operating systems.\"</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/1070df8d6b19a83ba6485a8c74e7ba5a\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"562\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p>ByteDance even donated through Gates' foundation, which was, in a sense, a pledge. But the series of events that followed completely spiraled out of control. This story is very long; we'll talk about it sometime.</p><p>But for Bill Gates, the biggest drawback was that Melinda filed for divorce this time.</p><p>Our view is that Bill Gates and Steve Jobs have alternating leading positions in the industry. The first decade was a decade when Jobs was far ahead of the competition, the second was a decade when Bill Gates gradually took the lead while Jobs constantly sought the north, and in the third decade, Bill Gates continued to rise while Jobs began to stabilize. However, at this time, the PC Internet had basically reached its end. In 2006, the beginning of the fourth decade, Jobs had a super opportunity to make a comeback, and he has indeed led the industry innovation for the past fifteen years.</p><p>In 2012, Apple's market capitalization surpassed Microsoft's, but at that time, neither Apple nor Microsoft actually had much to do with the two founders. Steve Jobs passed away a year ago, while Bill Gates wisely chose to do charity.</p><p>In an interview before his death, Steve Jobs commented on Gates: \"He had no imagination, so he did charity.\" While subtly mocking his opponents, he also expressed envy for Gates' actions.</p><p>This is like a card game. Although Jobs is leading, he is already all in, while Bill Gates still has a super ace to play. Unexpectedly, because of Melinda's divorce, this card is still very big, but it is hard to call it an ace. After all, although the two are divorced, the foundation still belongs to them. In the past, Melinda wouldn't have had much say in the foundation in order to maintain her marriage, but now it's hard to say, especially with feminism so prevalent today. Gates will lose at least half or even more of his control over the foundation.</p><p>No one is smarter than Gates, but smart people can only win in the present, while imaginative people can lead the future. Therefore, we always envy Bill Gates, but often miss Steve Jobs.</p>","source":"lsy1577858304421","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>No one is smarter than Bill Gates, but Steve Jobs is often remembered.</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 12.5px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\nNo one is smarter than Bill Gates, but Steve Jobs is often remembered.\n</h2>\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n<p class=\"head\">\n<strong class=\"h-name small\">左林右狸</strong><span class=\"h-time small\">2021-05-09 09:34</span>\n</p>\n</h4>\n</header>\n<article>\n<p>Introduction: Smart people always win the present, and imaginative people lead the future. Gates is enviable, and Steve Jobs is often remembered. Today, let's take a look at Bill Gates' divorce case and learn about the rumors surrounding him and his impact on the history of technology.</p><p><b>I. Bill Gates, the Smart Man</b></p><p>If there was one word to describe Bill Gates, it would be smart.</p><p>Because of Jack Ma, the lakeside is widely known. In the United States, there is also a lakeside, Lakeside High School, a private high school next to Lake Washington in Seattle, where Gates attended. Gates is naturally shy and not good at talking to people, but he has a superhuman talent for computers: Gates wrote the seating arrangement software at Lakeside Middle School. As a result, Gates is always surrounded by the girls he likes during class, and he is often the only one in the class to enjoy this treatment. Gates' talent was also discovered by a commercial company, which asked him to help pick out bugs. Gates was so good that he quickly caused the commercial company to lose the DEC order because he discovered hundreds of bugs in a short period of time, and the printed list was three hundred pages thick. Gates was one of the teenage hackers. At the time, the CDC had built a national computer network, Cybernet, which the CDC claimed was extremely secure. Gates then used a terminal at Waddington University to hack into the system at the time. He was later caught by the CDC and had to be asked to leave the computer for a year.</p><p>To add to that, Gates was able to freely roam the University of Washington largely because he knew another young computer hacker who was two years older than him, Paul Allen, a student of the University of Washington library and his lakeside senior. Later, the two of them founded Microsoft together.</p><p>Despite demonstrating superhuman talent in computer science, Bill Gates did not choose to study computer science at university because of his lawyer father. Instead, he chose to study law at Harvard University. Out of a maximum admission score of 1600, Bill Gates scored 1590. Allen got a perfect score on the SAT, but he chose to enter the University of Washington in his hometown. Allen is also a smart person.</p><p>Gates' ex-wife, Melinda, is also a smart person. Her father was a contract engineer for NASA, and the family had a strong academic atmosphere. When Melinda was in her senior year of high school, her math teacher equipped the school with several Apple IIs. She went to university to study programming at night and taught programming to students at school during the day. Melinda wrote some basic small programs, which is the source of her interest in computers.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/30b7e83cc6b6c82e7a8b618f0f0cbc2b\" tg-width=\"474\" tg-height=\"264\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p>A few years later, Melinda earned a double bachelor's degree in computer science and economics from Duke University, then joined Microsoft and pursued an MBA at Duke University's Fuqua School of Business. She was the only woman in this MBA class. Melinda is very smart. When she first started dating Bill Gates, they played math games together, but Gates could never beat her. The first time she played \"Clues\" (an American version of a murder mystery game), Melinda won big. This may be the beginning of Gates falling in love.</p><p>Bill Gates is always attracted to smart people, and his ex-girlfriend Wimbledon is also a smart person.</p><p>Wimbride was born on November 1, 1950, five years older than Gates. He completed his education by working as a cocktail bar waiter, earning a bachelor's degree in mathematics and business administration from St. Catherine's University and a master's degree in education from St. Thomas University in St. Paul, Minnesota.</p><p>Wimbride's first job was as a programmer at the Federal Reserve. Thirteen months later, she left the Fed with three colleagues to found an accounting software company called Open Systems. The company initially invested $5 million and was sold six years later for $15 million.</p><p>She was also a pioneer of early venture capital in the United States. Zhang Yuzhou, an old friend of the Zuolin Youli channel and a veteran in the industry, wrote the following story on his WeChat public account \"Afterwards Settling Accounts\": At a venture capitalist event in the 1980s, Wimbride was one of the few women present. In the double room assigned to her by the organizers, the other person was a female performance \"artist\" on stage, who was actually a stripper. This shows how scarce the number of female venture capitalists was in the early days.</p><p>Wimbledon and Bill Gates met at the Ben Rosen-Esther Dyson computer conference in 1984 and dated and lived together for three years. After their breakup, Wimbridge's career took off, and she co-founded Hammer-Wimbrid Investments with former NBA star John Hammer.</p><p>There are rumors that the breakup between Gates and Wimbledon was prevented by Gates' mother because Wimbledon was too old to get married. However, Wimbledon has publicly stated that Mary Gates gave her excellent advice when she was a young venture capitalist, and that Wimbledon received a handwritten thank-you note every time he saw Mary.</p><p>As for whether Wimbledon has withdrawn from Gates' emotional world, that remains an unsolved mystery. Wimbledon was involved in Melinda and Gates' marriage. They had a private agreement before their marriage that Gates would spend a week's vacation with Wimbledon every year, and Melinda was not allowed to interfere. Gates and Wimbledon did indeed vacation at their beach cabin on the Bund in North Carolina every year. Gates said that although he spends some time with Wimbledon every year, the two only talk about computer problems together. The clever Bill Gates enjoys the blessings of having everyone in his own way.</p><p>Rumor has it that Wimbride once clashed with Melinda over her involvement in the Gates Foundation. To Melinda's surprise, her husband stood firmly on Wimbride's side. That time, Melinda finally couldn't take it anymore, lost control of her emotions, and yelled at Bill Gates: Am I not tolerant enough?</p><p>What the Zuo Lin You Li Channel really wants to know is whether Gates and Melinda's three children knew about Wimbridge's existence before. After today, they will definitely all know. What about before? However, their youngest daughter is already 18 years old, old enough to face everything in the world, both good and ugly.</p><p>Gates' ability to become the world's richest person is closely linked to the mother of his former national bank president's daughter. Numerous reports suggest that Gates' mother, who was on the board of directors of IBM, persuaded IBM to give Microsoft its first order for an operating system, and thus Microsoft began its journey. Actually, this statement is half right. Gates' mother, Mary Gates, is not on the board of IBM, but on the board of the University of Washington. The University of Washington is ranked among the top 20 universities in the United States, not because it is named in Washington, D.C., but because it is located in Seattle, Washington.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/bb1f13e784a02470afbaea928b1a4e43\" tg-width=\"1080\" tg-height=\"810\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p>Seattle is located on the west coast of the United States, bordering Puget Sound and surrounding Lake Washington. Looking west of Seattle, the snow-capped Olympic Mountains are clearly visible, while in the distance to the east are continuous snow-capped mountains. In the southeast, Mount Rainier never melts. The air is fresh, the flowers and trees are lush, and the scenery is pleasant all year round. Many newly wealthy Chinese high-tech companies have established land here. For example, Xing Shanhu, Zhang Yunfan, and so-and-so.</p><p>If we had to nitpick, it would be that compared to the sunny San Francisco Bay Area, Seattle has slightly more rainy days. This is why the buildings in Microsoft's Redmond campus are scattered but have some underlying pattern: to ensure that every programmer's office has a large floor-to-ceiling window to maximize natural light and better enjoy every sunny day.</p><p>Half of the above statement is that the most important order that made Microsoft successful did indeed come from IBM, thanks to Mary Gates' personal connections. Mary was also the first female chair of the board of directors of the National United Roads Charitable Foundation (Gates has a family history of philanthropy), which also included John Opel, then chairman of IBM. During his tenure, John launched the first PC, the IBM 5150, and was looking for a company to help them write an operating system. Mary strongly recommended her son's company to John. Interestingly, when she learned that IBM needed an operating system instead of general-purpose software that Bill Gates and Allen could make, Bill Gates readily agreed that he could do it, which stunned Allen.</p><p>IBM only gave him about half a year, which Gates did to create a difficult problem for him and Allen, and he himself was forced into immense pain.</p><p>The good news was that Allen learned that a programmer named Patterson from Seattle Computer Products had spent four years writing the 86-DOS system. The two of them went to visit Patterson and bought the full copyright to the product from Seattle Computer for $50,000, without revealing its purpose.</p><p>After receiving the system, Gates told his mother that he might not see him for the next six months. Then he led his team to work frantically overtime, transforming the 86-DOS system into an MS-DOS system compatible with IBM computers within six months. In March of the following year, the DOS system passed acceptance, making Microsoft the sole manufacturer of IBM's operating system.</p><p>Moreover, Bill Gates was cunning and signed a non-exclusive licensing agreement with IBM. Ultimately, Microsoft's operating system became the desktop operating system for IBM computers and almost all PCs. Bill Gates is smart enough.</p><p><b>II. Steve Jobs, the disruptor</b></p><p>Bill Gates was born in 1955. According to the book \"Outliers,\" Americans born in 1955 have a higher probability of success than other years. People born in this year caught the wave of the computer revolution at the age of 20 and enjoyed the first rays of dawn. Also born in this year were former Google CEO Eric Schmidt, Sun's two founders, Andy Bertolsheim and Vinod Khosla, and Steve Jobs.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/6d339037a6d0c6c2e030c71f0f682542\" tg-width=\"800\" tg-height=\"557\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p>Microsoft and Apple, Bill Gates and Steve Jobs, for a long time, these two companies and these two people were the undisputed giants of the American and even global information industry.</p><p>If Bill Gates is a super smart person who grew up with a silver spoon in his mouth, then Steve Jobs, who was raised by his adoptive parents, is a typical grassroots genius. To compare these two people, to use a football analogy, Bill Gates is Cristiano Ronaldo, while Jobs is Messi.</p><p>According to the Zuo Lin You Li channel, if Steve Jobs hadn't pursued excellence, there would be no Microsoft.</p><p>As is well known, Wozniak saw a cowherd who could run Basic at a homebrew club and decided to assemble his own personal computer. He and Steve Jobs quickly co-founded Apple in April 1976 in Jobs' garage. At the first West Coast Computer Trade Show in 1977, Apple launched the Apple II, a landmark model in the history of personal computers, which was a great success. Four years later, in 1980, Apple went public and became a super rich man of that era.</p><p>It can be said that IBM's personal computer project was partly stimulated by the Apple II, which led to Microsoft's comeback story.</p><p>At this time, Microsoft not only developed software for IBM, but also worked for Apple. In 1982, Apple's annual sales revenue was already $1 billion, while Microsoft's was only $32 million, a significant difference. The turning point came in 1983.</p><p>Because Steve Jobs, striving for excellence, delayed the release of Apple's McKinsh computer by a full year in January 1983, Microsoft was able to quickly switch to providing IBM with a graphical interface operating system after its partnership with Apple ended in November 1983, thus tipping the balance between Apple and IBM in IBM's favor.</p><p>IBM and Apple are fighting a battle between the snipe and the clam, while Microsoft benefits, though it's no smarter than Bill Gates.</p><p>Even with a brilliant move like paying homage to 1984, Jobs couldn't salvage Apple's defeat in the face of IBM's powerful offensive.</p><p>At the same time, Microsoft entered a period of rapid growth.</p><p>Correspondingly, Steve Jobs was ousted from Apple in 1985, and Microsoft went public a year later in 1986.</p><p>By the time Jobs launched the first iPhone in 2006, Bill Gates had announced his retirement. Together, the two led and ultimately ended the entire PC (Internet) era in their own way.</p><p>The two also had many interactions. For example, Jobs long insisted that Microsoft copied Apple's ideas for graphical interface systems, and Apple had been filing lawsuits against Microsoft since the 1980s. Jobs' second company, NeXT, failed because it failed to reach an agreement with Gates and did not receive software support developed by Microsoft. After returning to Apple, Jobs used Apple's right to waive lawsuits to obtain Microsoft's support for Apple's Macintosh computers, and also asked Gates to purchase $150 million in non-voting Apple stock as support.</p><p>Whether Jobs or Gates made a greater contribution to the information industry is a matter of opinion, but when it comes to the groundbreaking influence of the industry, there is no doubt that Jobs had a greater impact. Wozniak designed the extraordinary circuit board and related operating software for the Apple II, which Jobs integrated into a perfect personal computer. The Apple II revolutionized the entire industry, ushering in the home era for computers.</p><p>Founding NeXT and acquiring the graphics team (later renamed Pixar), Steve Jobs originally intended to make a big splash in computer 3D graphics technology, but inadvertently brought about a great revolution in the use of 3D computer graphics in film production, injecting new vitality into the animation industry. Steve Jobs wasn't exactly the mastermind behind 3D animated feature films; this disruptive innovation only earned him half a point.</p><p>Steve Jobs, returning to Apple, truly reached a new crossroads where he could make a significant impact. His exceptional imagination, unparalleled marketing skills, and extraordinary leadership combined to create an Apple whirlwind around the world. After selling 20 million Macintosh computers, Apple launched the iTunes Music Store and the iPod digital music player, reversing the trend of piracy in the music industry through an excellent user experience. Until 2006, Jobs launched his most acclaimed work, the iPhone, which brought multi-touch screens and virtual keyboards to the masses, creating a powerful computing device, an online client terminal, and an enhanced version of the iPod. The iPhone elevated Steve Jobs to a pedestal; it's no exaggeration to say that Jobs single-handedly ushered in the era of the mobile internet.</p><p><b>III. The Super Mansions of Tech Leaders</b></p><p>One of the study abroad programs in Silicon Valley is always a visit to Steve Jobs' birthplace, especially during the National Day holiday, which coincides with the anniversary of Jobs' death (October 4th). Jobs' birthplace is located at 2066 Crist Drive in Los Angeles, where Jobs lived from the age of 14. Jobs' adoptive mother still lives there. On October 28, 2013, the house was designated a historical site by the city council. The chairman of the city council is said to be the wife of one of the founders of Google. The advantage of choosing her as chairman is that someone will always step forward when there are gaps in municipal construction or when public welfare projects are promoted.</p><p>However, visiting Jobs' Paloalto house on Halloween would be the right solution. The tradition of lavish Halloween celebrations in Silicon Valley began with Steve Jobs. It is said that Jobs himself would hide behind the scarecrows, pumpkins, skeletons, and spider webs he visited at his home and suddenly pop out to startle the children who came to ask for candy.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ffcb0046bc26a0f46601dc9d2e714a0c\" tg-width=\"705\" tg-height=\"421\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p>Steve Jobs' house is located on Waverley street in paloalto, which is one of the upscale neighborhoods in Silicon Valley. Larry Page, the founder of Google, lives at 100 on the same street. It's a small world. This area is also home to a female intermediary with close ties to the Chinese internet industry, the sister of Martin, a BAT (Baidu, Alibaba, Tencent) executive.</p><p>Witnesses said that Jobs could often be seen tending to the garden barefoot, wearing a turtleneck and black sweater.</p><p>Before moving to Palo Alto in the mid-1990s, Jobs lived in a century-old Latin-style house in woodside for about a decade, until his wife, Lauren Powell, became pregnant. Jobs loved woodside; he owned more than one house here. Public records show that Powell Jobs owned two properties in woodside, valued at $7.5 million and $10 million respectively. Woodside, as its name suggests, is located on the edge of the woods and separated from Silicon Valley by only a dune street. Jobs' neighbor in Woodside was Oracle boss Erickson. There's a joke about 1986, the year Jobs was depressed after being fired from Apple. One day, Erickson was sleeping in his Woodside home when a peacock broke into the yard and woke him up. Erickson learned that the peacock was raised by his neighbor Jobs, so he ran over and complained. Jobs said, \"Ha, you don't like this bird either.\" The peacock was a gift from my girlfriend, and I need to find a way to get rid of it. The two laughed heartily, became friends, and often went for walks together. Both Steve Jobs and Erickson were fond of Japanese Zen Buddhism. Erickson's luxurious Japanese-style mansion cost a whopping $200 million and has always been a top tech mansion in Silicon Valley and around the world. Erickson's house in Atherton also has Japanese-style gardens.</p><p>Wei Zhe and Ding Lei also have large houses by the forest, which suits their style quite well. The presence of Chinese tech tycoons in Silicon Valley is an interesting topic; we'll discuss it again later.</p><p>There are reports that Jobs also lived in Cupertino, but this is not true. Jobs attended high school in Cupertino, which is why they moved from Mountain View to a place south of losalto near Cupertino. Steve Jobs' last work is a popular landmark in Silicon Valley today—Apple's spaceship headquarters is within walking distance of Jobs' high school.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a5968e872ce2709398b65f77f65b0f17\" tg-width=\"1080\" tg-height=\"622\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p>Gates' Seattle mansion, Shangri-La 2.0, is also a masterpiece. The mansion is located on the Medina Peninsula on the eastern shore of Lake Washington, a peninsula surrounded by water on three sides. Its neighbors are Bezos and a group of Microsoft executives. The Medina Peninsula is home to the smallest city in the United States and the most beautiful female police patrol team in the country. It is said to be specially designed for the island's top billionaires. The reason why the female police officers are required to be beautiful is because they are afraid of scaring children during patrols.</p><p>It seems to be common for executives of super-large companies to live next door to each other. In Silicon Valley, Jack Ma also bought houses there because Masayoshi Son and Jerry Yang owned houses there. Because of Jack Ma, a group of Alibaba executives also bought houses in losalto hill next to Jack Ma's father. As one Alibaba executive aptly put it, living next to the boss and visiting from time to time gives you poor information and resources that are much more valuable than houses. Moreover, the US dollars that Alibaba cashed out after its IPO will not be returned, making buying a house a good investment option.</p><p>Portefino, a top luxury residential area in Shenzhen, has also stood out because of the residence of another Jack Ma, which has attracted a large number of Tencent executives. Both are built by the lake, both offer tranquility amidst the hustle and bustle, and both are peaceful and tranquil. It is precisely birds of a feather flock together and people live together.</p><p>Back to Gates' mansion, Shangri-La 2.0, which covers 66,000 square acres, half of the hill was dug up during construction. Gates spent $97 million on it, and the reception hall alone is 214 square meters. The pets are also unusual; the house houses an endangered protected whale shark.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d7ebf27cbe505fb8ce26da66c717bfb5\" tg-width=\"1080\" tg-height=\"810\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p>The mansion houses a domed private library with a skylight in the middle of the roof that lets in natural light. It houses some of Bill Gates' heirloom treasures and masterpieces, including the script manuscript for Hitchcock's film \"Terror\" and Napoleon's love letter to Josephine, as well as Leonardo da Vinci's \"Leicester Manuscript,\" which contains prophetic scientific theories, which he bought from Christie's in 1994 for $20.8 million. Bill Gates made the manuscript into a VCD and made a fortune at $50 each. No one is smarter than Gates.</p><p>Bill Gates' house is open to visitors, costing $35,000 each time. Although it is expensive, many people still flock to it.</p><p>The most notable feature of this mansion is that it has hosted many celebrities. When President Hu visited the United States in 2006, he visited Microsoft headquarters during the day and attended a dinner hosted by Gates' home that evening. It was at this dinner that the famous Q&A session between Bill Gates and Hu Jintao on the topic of piracy, which later left Chinese domestic software companies sighing, took place.</p><p>The obvious fact after this dinner was that Microsoft had won a $1.2 billion contract from Lenovo, and from then on, Lenovo computers would have to pre-install genuine Windows. The implicit fact is that the Chinese government's software procurement plan has thus shifted, and the newly emerging plan to replace domestically produced office software has been shelved. Not to mention the depth of local operating systems, Bill Gates' dinner has changed the course of China's information industry for at least a decade.</p><p>The person most injured at the banquet was an elderly man named Ni Guangnan, while Mrlu, a stakeholder at the banquet, rose to prominence. But ten years later, in 2015, when another national leader visited Seattle, the same scene did not occur. On the contrary, the mindset and fate of the two old men from ten years ago were reversed. Interested readers can discuss this story on our Knowledge Planet.</p><p><b>IV. Gates and Jobs' Chinese Disciples</b></p><p>Bill Gates' feud with China goes far beyond this. Tsinghua University and Peking University, two of China's top universities, also engaged in a war of words over Bill Gates. The protagonist of the war of words was Microsoft's China Research Institute (later upgraded to Research Asia), established in 1998. The debate was about whether Peking University or Tsinghua University made this the most successful research institute in the history of Chinese science and technology.</p><p>Supporters of Peking University believe that Bill Gates only visited Peking University during his first visit to China in 1994, a three-day trip. However, Tsinghua supporters believe that on the eve of Christmas 1997, Bill Gates visited China again. This time, he visited Tsinghua, another prestigious university in China, and gave a speech at Tsinghua. According to Yang Shiqiang, the former Party Secretary of the Department of Computer Science at Tsinghua University, the student who asked Bill Gates the question at that time was Li Ling, who enrolled in the Department of Computer Science at Tsinghua in 1994. He was called an idol senior by Wang Xiaochuan and a recipient of a series of honors such as Tsinghua's student league branch secretary, grand prize winner, chairman of the department's science and technology association, and first place winner in the Global Mathematical Modeling Competition.</p><p>According to Tsinghua University, Bill Gates was also encouraged by the enthusiasm of Tsinghua students. Upon returning home, he changed his previous plan to go to India and established the Microsoft China Research Institute in Beijing the following year. This is not wrong, but it could also be the seeds sown during his trip to Peking University. Who knows? In any case, for Bill Gates, whether it's Peking University students or Tsinghua University students, they are all dishes on Microsoft's plate.</p><p>Because of writing \"A Brief History of Artificial Intelligence in China,\" we came into contact with three figures of Microsoft Research Asia members, all of whom are very grateful to Bill Gates.</p><p>Jobs never visited China, but that doesn't stop him from having many disciples there. Half of the owners of Chinese domestic mobile phone manufacturers compare themselves to Steve Jobs. Lei Jun of Xiaomi is even jokingly called Lei Jobs. Zhou Hongyi, who has always been obsessed with mobile phones, has discussed the similarities and differences between himself and Steve Jobs with us more than once. Although Huang Zhang of Meizu and Luo Yonghao of Smartisan did not have the same fate as Steve Jobs, they also contracted Jobs' illness. In the smart hardware industry, there are also many super fans of Steve Jobs, including Zhou Jian of UBTECH, Huang Wang of Huami, and his former colleague Wang Wei of Tuman. In fact, Wang Tao of DJI is also a follower of Jobs, but Wang Tao is at least half a disciple of Jobs. When Moritz, a global partner at Sequoia Capital, saw the DJI drone, he exclaimed that it was as impressive as when he saw the McKinsh computer. As a result, Moritz personally came to China to meet Wang Tao and expressed his intention to invest in DJI. Sequoia Capital was an investor in Apple, and Moritz had many interactions with Steve Jobs, even writing books for him. He was considered a close associate of Jobs.</p><p>If we extend the scope beyond mobile phones and smart hardware, we know that Steve Jobs' Chinese disciples include Yang Xiangji of Tap4fun and Nie Yunchen of Heytea.</p><p>Tap4fun is the developer of the mobile game \"Galactic Empire,\" which is known for surpassing \"Angry Birds\" to become the number one revenue chart on the App Store in the United States in 2013. Founder Yang Xiangji said his entrepreneurial journey stemmed from a quote from Steve Jobs when the iPhone was launched: \"The iPhone is everything to everyone.\"</p><p>The company's product and marketing strategy also aligns with Apple's. For example, their dream of making \"Insanely great Games\" is based on Steve Jobs' famous quote \"Keep putting great products,\" and they only make iOS Games, focusing on overseas markets. Huge black-and-white photos of five people hung outside the Tap4fun office door: Martin Luther King Jr., John Lennon, Einstein, and Muhammad Ali on either side, with Steve Jobs in the center.</p><p>Nie Yunchen, the founder of Heytea, always takes Steve Jobs as his role model. He was a loyal Apple fan during his school years. Before the iPad was released and entered China, some media outlets were going to hold an \"iPad Rafting Event\" to invite readers to try out the iPads they bought from overseas. Nie Yunchen was one of the first to go. He also spent some time as a technology editor, covering a wide variety of Apple products. From the very beginning, Heytea has always prioritized products, using real milk and real tea as raw materials. Now, in order to pursue the taste of the tea base, it wants to build its own tea garden and cultivate new tea trees.</p><p>Nie Yunchen followed Steve Jobs' product-first principle, and also followed Jobs' autocratic management practices. Heytea's rapid expansion in the past two years has put considerable pressure on operational process management. In order to introduce new professional managers, Nie Yunchen decisively fired several VP-level executives in charge of business and support departments. They were also long-time employees who had followed the startup from the very beginning. Here's a recommendation of our article studying Heytea cases. We welcome all neighbors to read and offer their guidance.</p><p>Let me tell you a story about Steve Jobs' disciples. The two protagonists of the story are also the big shots mentioned in the disciples paragraph above. To avoid being confusing, they are called pronouns. One year, a house appeared in front of Steve Jobs' house (some said it was vacant land). The temptation to be Jobs' neighbor was quite strong, but the house was not cheap, asking for $10 million. Y's wife took a liking to it and discussed with Y online how to quote it. Y said, \"Let's quote $9 million.\" First, he had checked, and there were hardly any people in the United States who would buy a house of this caliber. Second, he couldn't live in the house for more than a few days. So Wife Y offered $900, but the agent said, \"Sorry, the house was bought by another Chinese person who raised the price.\" When Wife Y asked, she learned that it was her husband's lifelong enemy, L, who bought it. The reason L paid more to buy it wasn't because of L, but because he felt that it was a good thing and a little more expensive wouldn't hurt. It's hard to tell if this story is true or false, but it fits the personas of the two people involved quite well.</p><p>It has to be said that Steve Jobs was truly influential.</p><p>Some people are alive, but they are actually walking corpses; some people are dead, but they will live on in people's hearts forever. The latter refers to people like Steve Jobs.</p><p><b>V. People remember Steve Jobs</b></p><p>Gates certainly has his moments when his cleverness backfires. In the battle for who will take Tiktok, Microsoft, as the overwhelming favorite, was eliminated, which was one such moment.</p><p>Speaking of which, Zhang Yiming and Gates also met once. In September 2015, a national leader paid his first state visit to the United States, and Zhang Yiming was one of the business representatives accompanying the delegation. During this period, at the dinner following the 8th China-US Internet Forum held in Seattle, Zhang Yiming sat next to Gates and excitedly posted a Weibo message: \"I didn't dare ask about products like mobile phones, but I talked to Bill Gates about the future of operating systems.\"</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/1070df8d6b19a83ba6485a8c74e7ba5a\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"562\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p><p>ByteDance even donated through Gates' foundation, which was, in a sense, a pledge. But the series of events that followed completely spiraled out of control. This story is very long; we'll talk about it sometime.</p><p>But for Bill Gates, the biggest drawback was that Melinda filed for divorce this time.</p><p>Our view is that Bill Gates and Steve Jobs have alternating leading positions in the industry. The first decade was a decade when Jobs was far ahead of the competition, the second was a decade when Bill Gates gradually took the lead while Jobs constantly sought the north, and in the third decade, Bill Gates continued to rise while Jobs began to stabilize. However, at this time, the PC Internet had basically reached its end. In 2006, the beginning of the fourth decade, Jobs had a super opportunity to make a comeback, and he has indeed led the industry innovation for the past fifteen years.</p><p>In 2012, Apple's market capitalization surpassed Microsoft's, but at that time, neither Apple nor Microsoft actually had much to do with the two founders. Steve Jobs passed away a year ago, while Bill Gates wisely chose to do charity.</p><p>In an interview before his death, Steve Jobs commented on Gates: \"He had no imagination, so he did charity.\" While subtly mocking his opponents, he also expressed envy for Gates' actions.</p><p>This is like a card game. Although Jobs is leading, he is already all in, while Bill Gates still has a super ace to play. Unexpectedly, because of Melinda's divorce, this card is still very big, but it is hard to call it an ace. After all, although the two are divorced, the foundation still belongs to them. In the past, Melinda wouldn't have had much say in the foundation in order to maintain her marriage, but now it's hard to say, especially with feminism so prevalent today. Gates will lose at least half or even more of his control over the foundation.</p><p>No one is smarter than Gates, but smart people can only win in the present, while imaginative people can lead the future. Therefore, we always envy Bill Gates, but often miss Steve Jobs.</p>\n<div class=\"bt-text\">\n\n\n<p> source：<a

II，晚上去大学学习编程，白天在学校教学生编程。梅琳达编写了一些基础小程序，这是她对计算机兴趣的来源。\n\n几年后梅琳达拿到了杜克大学的计算机和经济学双学士学位，随后进入微软，并且攻读了杜克大学福夸商学院的MBA，她是这届MBA中唯一的女性。梅琳达非常聪明，和比尔盖茨刚刚约会时，两个人一起玩数学游戏，盖茨老是玩不过她，第一次玩“线索”游戏（美国版的剧本杀），梅琳达也是大获全胜。这可能是盖茨陷入爱情的开端。\n比尔盖茨总是会被聪明人吸引，他的前女友温布莱德也是个聪明人。\n温布莱德1950年11月1日出生，比盖茨大了5岁，依靠自己做鸡尾酒吧服务员的工作完成学业，在圣凯瑟琳大学获得数学和工商管理学士学位，在明尼苏达州圣保罗的圣托马斯大学获得教育硕士学位。\n温布莱德的第一份工作是美联储的程序员，13个月后，她和三个同事一起离开美联储成立了会计软件公司，名为开放系统公司，该公司初始投资500万美元，六年后以1500万美元的价格出售。\n她还是美国早期风险投资的先锋。左林右狸频道的老朋友，行业老炮张宇宙同学的公众号“事后算账”中写到这样一个故事，80年代的一次风险投资者活动中，温布莱德是在场的少数女性之一，组织者给她分配的双人间中，另外一人是场上的女性表演“艺术家”，其实是一位脱衣舞女。可见早期女性风投家数量之稀少。\n温布莱德和比尔盖茨于1984年在Ben Rosen-Esther Dyson的计算机会议上相遇，之后三年约会并同居。分手后温布莱德事业更上一层楼，她和前NBA球星约翰·哈默联合成立了哈默-温布莱德投资公司。\n有传言盖茨和温布莱德的分手是出于盖茨母亲的阻拦，因为温布莱德年纪太大，不适于结婚。但是温布莱德曾公开表示，当她还是一个年轻的风投家时，玛丽盖茨给过她很好的建议，而且每次见到玛丽，温布莱德都会得到一封手写的感谢信。\n至于温布莱德有没有退出盖茨的感情世界，这至今都是个未解之谜。梅琳达与盖茨的婚姻里是有温布莱德的存在的，两个人婚前有一个私下协定，盖茨每年要求与温布莱德共度一周假期，梅琳达不得干涉，盖茨和温布莱德两个人也确实年年都在北卡罗来纳外滩岛的海边小屋度假。盖茨说，他虽然每年都要和温布莱德在一起呆一段时间，但是两人只是在一起谈论一些计算机上的问题而已。聪明的比尔盖茨用他的方式尽享齐人之福。\n坊间传闻，有一次，温布莱德因为插手盖茨基金会的事情和梅琳达起了冲突，让梅琳达万万没有想到的是，她的丈夫居然坚定地站在温布莱德那边。那一次，梅琳达终于忍无可忍，情绪失控，对着比尔·盖茨大声吼道：难道我还不够宽容吗？\n左林右狸频道无比想知道的是，盖茨和梅琳达的三个子女之前知道不知道温布莱德的存在，今天之后，肯定都是知道的，之前呢？不过，他们俩最小的女儿已经18岁了，已经到了面对世界美好和丑陋等诸多一切的年龄了。\n盖茨能成为世界首富，与他的前国家银行行长女儿的母亲颇有关联。诸多报道说是盖茨的母亲是IBM董事，说服IBM给了微软关于操作系统的第一笔订单，于是微软开始起步。其实这句话对了一半。盖茨的母亲玛丽·盖茨不是IBM董事，而是华盛顿大学的董事。华盛顿大学是美国排名前20的大学，倒不是因为在华盛顿DC得名，而是位于华盛顿州西雅图市。\n\n西雅图位于美国西海岸，临普吉特海湾，环华盛顿湖，往西雅图西边眺望,奥林匹克山雪峰历历在目,而东面远处,也是连绵不断的雪山, 东南部的 Rainier(雷里尔)雪山,则终年不化。空气清新，花木盎然，一年四季风景宜人。很多中国高科技企业的新贵在这里置地。譬如邢山虎和张云帆，还有那谁谁。\n如果要鸡蛋里挑骨头的话，那就是与阳光明媚的旧金山湾区相比，西雅图阴雨天稍微多了一些，这也是为什么微软雷德蒙园区里建筑走向七零八落但又有啥内在规律的原因所在，最大程度保证每个程序员的办公室都有一个大的落地窗，以最大程度的采光，以更好的享受每个阳光灿烂的日子。\n前述那句话对的一半是，成就微软最重要的一笔订单确实来自IBM，也是多亏了玛丽·盖茨的人际关系。玛丽也是全国联合道路慈善基金会理事会的首名女性主席（盖茨做慈善是有家学渊源的），IBM彼时的董事长约翰·欧佩尔也在这个协会。约翰任职期间推出了首部PC机IBM5150，当时正在找公司帮他们写操作系统。玛丽向约翰大力推荐了自己儿子的公司，有意思的是，当得知IBM需要操作系统而不是比尔盖茨和艾伦能做的通用软件时，比尔盖茨满口答应下来自己能做，这惊呆了一旁的艾伦。\nIBM只给了小半年的时间，盖茨这是给他和艾伦找了一个难题，他自己也被逼得痛苦无比。\n好消息是艾伦打听到了西雅图电脑产品公司一名叫做帕特森的程序员花了四年时间编写出了86-DOS系统，他们俩赶过去拜访了帕特森，花了5万美金从西雅图电脑买下了这款产品的全部版权，而且拒绝透露产品的用途。\n拿到系统之后盖茨告诉母亲，接下来半年可能都见不到他了，然后他就率领团队开始了疯狂加班，在半年时间内将86-DOS系统改造成了适配IBM电脑的MS-DOS系统。第二年三月，DOS系统通过了验收，微软公司从此成为IBM提供操作系统的唯一制造商。\n而且比尔盖茨还使了个小心眼，和IBM签订的是一个licence的协议，而且还不排他，最终微软推出的操作系统成为IBM电脑以及几乎所有PC的桌面操作系统。比尔盖茨够聪明的。\n二、颠覆者乔布斯\n比尔·盖茨出生于1955年，按照《异类》一书的说法，1955年出生的美国人成功概率大于其他年份，这一年出生的人在20岁的时候正好赶上电脑革命的浪潮，享受黎明的第一道曙光。这个年份出生的还有谷歌的前CEO埃里克·施密特，Sun公司的两位创始人安迪·贝拓尔斯海姆和维诺德·科斯拉也是这一年生人，以及乔布斯。\n\n微软和苹果，比尔盖茨和乔布斯，很长时间，这两家公司，这两个人都是美国乃至全球信息产业的绝代双骄。\n如果说比尔盖茨是含着金钥匙长大的超级聪明人，那么，自己由养父母养大的乔布斯是典型的草根天才，关于这两个人的比较，套用一个足球领域的比喻，那就是比尔盖茨是C罗，而乔布斯是梅西。\n在左林右狸频道看来，如果乔布斯不是追求极致，就没有微软啥事情了。\n众所周知，沃兹尼亚克在家酿俱乐部里看到能跑Basic的牛郎星决定组装出属于自己的个人电脑，他和乔布斯两个人很快在1976年4月在乔布斯家的车库共同创立了苹果公司，1977年第一届西海岸电脑交易会上，苹果公司推出个人电脑历史上的划时代的苹果II型机，大获成功，四年后1980年苹果公司上市，一下子成为那个时代的超级新贵。\n可以说IBM的个人电脑项目部分程度上也受到了苹果II的刺激，这才有了微软逆袭的故事。\n这个时候的微软不仅给IBM开发软件，也给苹果干活。1982年，苹果一年的销售收入已经10亿美元，而微软只有3200万美元，差得有些大。转折点发生在1983年。\n因为1983年1月追求极致的乔布斯推迟了苹果麦克金什电脑的发布整整一年，1983年11月，微软得以在与苹果合作期结束后迅速转过去向IBM提供图形界面的操作系统，由此让苹果和IBM之间的天平倒向IBM。\nIBM苹果鹬蚌相争，微软得利，聪明不过比尔盖茨。\n即便有致敬1984这样的神操作，但在强大的IBM攻势面前乔布斯也无法挽回苹果电脑的败局。\n而与此同时，微软进入快速上升通道。\n对应的1985年乔布斯被赶出苹果，而一年后的1986年微软上市。\n到了2006年乔布斯推出第一代iPhone的时候，比尔·盖茨则宣布退休。两个人一起用自己的方式引领并最终终结了整个PC（互联网）时代。\n两个人其间也有很多交往，比如乔布斯长期坚称微软抄袭了苹果关于图形界面系统的创意，苹果从上个世纪80年代起就不停发起对微软诉讼。乔布斯第二次创业的NeXT公司因为没有跟盖茨谈拢，得不到微软开发的软件支持而失败。回归苹果后乔布斯用苹果放弃诉讼的权利取得了微软对苹果麦金塔电脑的支持，而且还要盖茨购买1.5亿美元无投票权的苹果股票以示支持。\n要论乔布斯和盖茨谁对信息产业的贡献更大，这是个见仁见智的问题，但是要论行业开创性的影响，毫无疑问乔布斯更多一些。沃兹尼亚克设计出了苹果 II上非凡的电路板和相关操作软件，乔布斯将其整合为了一台完美的个人电脑。苹果II推动了整个产业的变革，从此计算机进入了家庭时代。\n创办NeXT，收购制图小组（后改名为皮克斯），乔布斯本来是想在电脑3D图像技术上大展拳脚，却在无心插柳之中成就了将3D电脑绘图用于电影制作的伟大变革，给动画产业注入了新的活力。乔布斯算不上3D动画长片的主导者，这次颠覆式创新顶多给他记上半分。\n重新回到苹果的乔布斯才是真正走到了能够大展拳脚的新路口。他卓越的想象力、无与伦比的营销手段、与非凡的领导力结合起来，在全球刮起了一阵苹果旋风。在麦金塔电脑卖出2000万台后，苹果推出了iTunes音乐商店和iPod数字音乐播放器，通过卓越的使用体验逆转了音乐界的盗版之风。直到2006年，乔布斯推出最为人称颂的作品iPhone，将多点触控屏和虚拟键盘推向大众，造就了一台强大的运算设备、网络客户终端、以及加强版的iPod。iPhone把乔布斯送上了神坛，说一句乔布斯一手撕开了移动互联网时代的大幕真不为过。\n三、科技领袖的超级豪宅\n硅谷的游学项目里总是有这么一条，就是参观乔布斯的故居，特别是国庆期间的团，本身能赶上乔布斯的忌日（10月4日），乔布斯故居位于losalto的Crist Drive 2066号，是乔布斯14岁开始住的地方，这套房子乔布斯的养母还在那里住。2013年10月28日，该房子被市政委员会认定为历史遗迹，而该市的市政委员会的主席据说是Google的创始人之一的老婆，选其当主席到位好处是一旦市政建设有缺口或公益项目推动总有人挺身而出。\n不过，万圣节到乔布斯在Paloalto房子游玩才是正解。硅谷的万圣节大操大办的传统正是从乔布斯开始形成的，据说乔布斯本人也会藏在自己家拜访的稻草人、南瓜、骷髅、蜘蛛网后，突然跳出来吓前来讨糖的小朋友一跳。\n\n乔布斯的这处房子位于paloalto Waverley street 街区，本身也是硅谷的高档社区之一，同一条街的100号住的是Google的创始人的拉里佩奇，这世界不大。这个片区还活跃着一位与中国互联网关系颇深的女性中介，BAT级别高管某Martin的姐姐。\n有目击者说，时常能看到乔布斯穿着高领黑色毛衣光着脚打理花园。\n在90年代中期搬来Paloalto前，乔布斯住在woodside的一栋有百年历史的拉丁风格的老房子，住了有十年的样子，直到他的老婆劳伦鲍威尔有孕。乔布斯很喜欢woodside，他在这里不止一套房子。公共记录显示，鲍威尔·乔布斯在woodside拥有两处房产，分别价值750万美元和1000万美元。Woodside顾名思义在林边，与硅谷也只隔着一条沙丘街，乔布斯在Woodside的邻居是Oracle的老板埃里克森，有个段子讲得是1986年，乔布斯被赶出苹果后落寞的那一年，埃里克森有天在他Woodside的家里睡觉，一只闯进院子的孔雀吵醒了它，埃里克森得知孔雀是邻居乔布斯养的，于是跑过去抱怨，乔布斯说，哈，你也不喜欢这只鸟啊。孔雀是我女朋友送的，我得想办法弄掉它。两个人哈哈一笑，相互成了朋友，并经常约着一起散步。乔布斯和埃里克森都很喜欢日本禅宗，埃里克森的豪奢日式庄园造价高达2亿美元，一直是硅谷乃至全球科技豪宅的头牌，埃里克森在Atherton的房子同样是日式园林。\n卫哲和丁磊在林边也有大房子，这蛮符合他们的调性。中国科技富豪们在硅谷置地是个有趣的话题，我们容后再八。\n有报道说乔布斯也在Cupertino有过住处，这并非事实，乔布斯在Cupertino读的中学，也正因为此，他们才从moutainview搬到losalto南边临Cupertino的地方。乔布斯生前最后的作品今天硅谷超级网红打卡地标------苹果宇宙飞船总部离乔布斯的中学走路可至。\n\n盖茨的西雅图豪宅世外桃源2.0同样称得上传世之作，该豪宅位于华盛顿湖东部岸边的麦迪娜半岛，这是一个三面环水的半岛，邻居就是贝索斯，以及微软的一众高管们。麦迪娜半岛上有美国最小的市，和全美颜值最高的女警巡逻队，据说是为岛上这些顶级富豪而专设的，为什么要要求女警颜值，是怕巡逻时吓坏孩子。\n超级大公司高管比邻而居似乎是常态，硅谷的losalto hill因为孙正义和杨致远在那里有房子，所以Jack马也在那里买，因为Jack马，一票阿里高管也在losalto hill挨着马爸爸买，一位阿里的高管说得好，挨着老板住，时不时串个门，得到的信息差，获得的资源比房子值钱多了。更何况，阿里上市后套现回来的美元又不回来，买房子理财是个不错的选择。\n在深圳的顶级豪宅区波特菲诺也因为另外一个马爸爸在这里栖居所以聚集足够多腾讯高管而一直卓尔不群，同样的是临湖而建，同样是闹中取静，同样是宁静致远，正是物以类聚，人以群居。\n回来八盖茨的豪宅世外桃源2.0，占地6.6万平方英亩，建造时整个山头被挖去了一半，盖茨为此花费了9700万美元，光是会客大厅就有214平米。宠物也是与众不同，屋里养着一条濒危保护动物鲸鲨。\n\n这所豪宅里有一间圆顶型私人图书馆，屋顶中间有一个接收自然光线的天窗，里面保存了比尔盖茨购买的一些传世宝物和名家珍品，包括希区柯克电影《惊魂记》的剧本手稿和拿破仑写给约瑟芬的情书，还有达芬奇一份具有预言科学理论的《莱斯特手稿》，是他在1994年以2080万美元的价格从佳士得买下的。比尔盖茨把这幅手稿制作成VCD，以每张50美元的价格大赚了一笔。聪明莫过盖茨。\n比尔盖茨家的房子是可以参观的，每次3.5万美金，虽然价格昂贵，但还是很多人趋之若鹜。\n这所豪宅最值得一提的特点是招待过很多名人。2006年胡主席访美的时候，白天参观过微软公司总部，当天晚上出席了盖茨家里举办的晚宴。也就是在这次晚宴上，出现了后来让中国国产软件业者为之唏嘘的关于盗版话题比尔盖茨和胡一问一答的名场面。\n这次晚宴后显性事实是微软公司拿下了联想的12亿美元大单，从此之后联想电脑都要预装正版Windows系统。隐性事实是，中国的政府关于软件的采购计划就此转向，刚刚兴起的国产办公软件替代计划就此搁浅，更别提本土操作系统的纵深，比尔·盖茨这一顿晚宴，改变了中国信息产业至少十年的走向。\n这次晚宴最受伤的是一个叫倪光南的老人，而这次晚宴利益关联人Mrlu之后则一路扶摇直上。但十年后的2015年，又一次国家领导人访问西雅图，同样的一幕并没有发生，相反，十年前的两位旧人心境和命运都由此逆转。这段故事，有兴趣的读者可以到我们的知识星球里进行讨论。\n四、盖茨和乔布斯的中国门徒\n比尔·盖茨与中国的恩怨情仇，远不止此。清华和北大，中国的这两所最高学府，也为比尔盖茨打过一次口水仗。口水仗的主角是1998年成立的微软的中国研究院（后升级为亚洲研究院），辩题是到底是因为北大还是清华，成就了这中国科技史上最成功的研究院。\n北大的支持者认为，比尔盖茨1994年第一次访问中国，在三天的连环行程里，只参观了北大。但清华的拥趸认为，在1997年的圣诞节前夕，比尔·盖茨再一次来中国访问，这一次，他拜访了中国的另一所名校清华，并在清华做了一次演讲，按照清华大学计算机系原党委书记杨士强的回忆，当时向比尔·盖茨提问的学生叫清华计算机系1994年入学的李凌，被王小川称为偶像师兄的存在，清华的学生团支书、特等奖得主、系科协主席、全球数学建模大赛第一名等一系列荣誉加持者。\n按照清华乐见其成的说法，比尔·盖茨也被清华学生的热情鼓舞，回去就改变了之前定下的去印度的计划，来年在北京设立了微软中国研究院，这话没毛病，但确实也有可能是当年北大之行播下的种子，谁知道呢？反正对比尔盖茨来说，北大学生也罢，清华学生也罢，都是微软盘中的菜。\n因为写作《中国人工智能简史》的的关系，我们接触有三位数的微软亚研成员，这些微软亚研的人都很感激比尔盖茨。\n乔布斯没有来过中国，但这不影响他在中国有着诸多的门徒。中国国产手机的老板们有一半自比乔布斯，小米的雷军甚至被戏称为雷布斯，一直对手机念念不忘的周鸿祎也不止一次和我们讨论他本人与乔布斯的异同；魅族的黄章和锤子的罗永浩也虽然没有乔布斯的命，但得了乔布斯的病。智能硬件业界，同样有诸多乔布斯的超级拥趸，优必选的周剑、华米的黄汪以及他的前同行土曼汪伟都在此列，其实大疆的汪滔也是乔布斯的信徒，不过对于乔布斯门徒汪滔至少算半个，当年红杉的全球合伙人莫里茨看到大疆无人机后感叹这和他当年看到麦可金什电脑一样震撼，由此，莫里茨亲自跑到中国来见汪滔表示要投大疆。红杉是苹果的投资人，莫里茨也与乔布斯交往甚多，也帮乔布斯写过书，算乔布斯的身边人。\n如果把领域不限于手机和智能硬件，我们知道的乔布斯的中国门徒还有Tap4fun的杨祥吉和喜茶的聂云宸。\nTap4fun是手游“银河帝国”的开发者，这个游戏因为在2013年超越“愤怒的小鸟”登上App Store美国区收入榜第一名而闻名。创始人杨祥吉说他自己创业都是源于乔布斯在iPhone发布时的一句话：“iPhone is everything to everyone.”\n这家公司的产品和市场战略也朝着苹果看齐，比如说他们坚持要做“Insanely Great Games”的梦想，就是朝着乔布斯“Keep putting  great products”的名言看齐，而且还只制作iOS游戏，专注海外市场。Tap4fun办公室门外挂着五个人的巨幅黑白照，马丁·路德·金、约翰·列侬、爱因斯坦、穆罕默德·阿里在两旁，乔布斯在最中央。\n喜茶的创始人聂云宸更是时时以乔布斯为榜样。他在读书期间就是忠诚果粉，iPad刚发布还没进入中国时，有媒体要举办“iPad漂流会”的活动，邀请读者试玩从海外买回来的iPad，聂云宸就是第一批去的人。他还做过一段时间的科技编辑，报道各种各样的苹果产品。喜茶从创业伊始就处处产品优先，原材料全部采用真奶真茶，现在为了追求茶底的口感，要自建茶园，培育新茶树。\n聂云宸追随了产品至上的乔布斯原则，也追随了乔布斯在管理上的独断专行。最近两年喜茶快速扩张，给运营流程管理上带来较大压力，为了引进新的职业经理人，聂云宸果断赶走了几位主管业务和支持部门的VP级高管，他们也是从最早期就跟随创业的老员工。在此安利一下我们研究喜茶案例的文章，欢迎各位邻里阅读指教。\n\n讲一个乔布斯门徒的段子，故事的两位主角也是上文门徒段落里点到的名的大佬，为避讳以代称。话说某年乔布斯家门口出现一处房子（一说是空地），与乔布斯做邻居的诱惑还是蛮大的，但这处房子不便宜，要价1000万美金，Y的老婆看中，在线和Y商量咋报价，Y说，咱报900万美金，第一他查过，这样级别的房子在美国没有什么人抢，第二，这房子自己也住不了几天。于是Y老婆报价900美金，但中介说，对不起，这房子被另外一位中国人加价买走了，Y老婆一问，是他老公的一生之敌L买走了。L之所以加价买倒不是因为L，而是觉得是好东西贵点也无妨。这个故事真假难辨，但蛮符合两位当事人的人设的。\n不得不说，乔布斯的号召力真心大。\n有的人活着，但他其实已经行尸走肉，有的人死了，但他永存人心间，后者说的是乔布斯这样的人。\n五、人民怀念乔布斯\n盖茨当然也有聪明反被聪明误的时候，在Tiktok花落谁家的争夺战里，微软作为大热出局，就是这样的时刻。\n说起来张一鸣跟盖茨还见过一面，2015年9月国家领导人对美国进行首次国事访问，张一鸣是随团的企业代表之一。在此期间西雅图举办的第八届中美互联网论坛后的饭局上，张一鸣坐在盖茨旁边，还激动地发了一个微博，“没敢问手机等产品问题，和BillGates聊了操作系统的未来”。\n\n字节甚至通过盖茨的基金会进行捐款，这某种意义上是投名状来着。但后续的一连串的事情，完全失控，这个故事很长，哪天有时间我们单八。\n但对比尔盖茨来说，最大的bug是这次被梅琳达提出离婚。\n我们的观点是，比尔盖茨和乔布斯的江湖地位是交错领先的，第一个十年是乔布斯一骑绝尘的十年，第二个是比尔盖茨渐领风骚而乔布斯不断找北的十年，第三个十年比尔盖茨继续站高，而乔布斯开始站住，但此时PC互联网基本走到头，在第四个十年开启的2006年，乔布斯本来有超级逆转的机会，也的确引领了至今的十五年的产业创新。\n2012年，苹果市值超过微软，但此时，不论苹果还是微软，其实都与两位创始人关系不大。乔布斯更是在一年前长辞人间，比尔盖茨则聪明的选择去做了慈善。\n乔布斯生前接受采访点评过盖茨：他没有想象力，所以去做慈善。暗讽对手的同时也对盖茨的做法表示羡慕。\n这好比牌局，乔布斯虽然领先，但已经Allin，比尔盖茨却还有一张超级王牌没有出，想不到的是，因为梅琳达的离婚，这张牌虽然还是很大，但很难说是王牌。毕竟，两个人虽然离婚，但基金会还是两个人的，以往梅琳达为了维护婚姻在基金会上话语权不会那么强，但如今却不好说，特别是女权如此盛行的当下，盖茨至少会失去一半甚至更多的对基金会的控制权。\n聪明不过盖茨，但聪明的人只能赢得当下，有想象力的人才能引领未来。所以，我们总是羡慕比尔盖茨，但时常怀念乔布斯。","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":4499,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"defaultTab":"posts","isTTM":true}
