How far are we from the genius

The film is similar to a biography of a historical figure, with a little bit of drama. Many places are the same as the Steve Jobs biography that we see now.

Because of the release time, the story only talks about Jobs leaving Apple. I think I should be able to add the second half when I finish reading that biography.

We can be surprised to find that the story has two pairs of protagonists, four people, and both of them are a leader and a partner. The person in the lead is always rebellious, has his own opinions, and is desperate to achieve his dreams. And that partner will be slightly humble and easy-going, they are more suitable for this universal society. In Jobs' biography, the other steve said that when he educates children, he will tell them, you don't want to be the number 1. Yes, in fact, in our opinion, their lives will be more harmonious and happy . But everyone's personality is different, and the mission to this world is different. No matter how difficult it is, they always want to be No. 1, although it is tiring and difficult.

For some of us, we have the enthusiasm and vision to create a career, but without this ability, we are the most powerless. Especially in China, many times, we can't jump out of the circle we live in. We used to think that what we saw was a piece of sky, but in fact it was just a frog in the bottom of the well.

Only in the era of the Internet and the gradual popularization of computers can we receive more information and see the wider world. But living in a circle tells you all the time what life should be and how you should do it. So we often doubt our own pursuits according to the universal view. Some people, fortunate, can do it, just doubt; some people, unlucky, have to do it according to the way of life of the masses, because those things are fetters.

We don't know where life is going, Life could only be understood backward, bu have to be live forward.

Maybe a few years later, when I look back on everything today, I will find that everything is so simple, or so incredible, or regretful, or fortunate.

Maybe, just a year later, you can look back.

Pirates of Silicon Valley quotes

  • Bill Gates: Success is a menace. It fools smart people into thinking they can't lose.

  • John Sculley: Steve, I'm worried. About what's happening. All the "them versus us" stuff. Macintosh versus Apple II.

    Steve Jobs: You don't understand, John. People need a cause.
