pirate?

First of all, it feels like the beginning of a horror movie.
I don't know if this movie is real or not. The movie depicts that Steve was believed by people like a cardinal before his death. It cannot be denied that it is the same now, by those Apple fans. Apple is no longer a brand but a belief, which I see from the film.
The film tells the story of two Silicon Valley madmen, Steve and Bill. Steve was arrogant, and Bill was bold. But from the movie I think Bill is a little more cute, at least to his girlfriend. Steve's personality is too strong to get along with. He did not admit that his daughter did not speak, and asked employees who had worked for 50+ hours to continue working. is this real?
The thing that struck me the most was the pirate flag Bill saw when he went to Steve's company, is this Apple culture?
Steve always said that Apple was going to change the world, and he did, and now the streets are full of iPhones, and everyone is proud to buy something from Apple. But I think, at least from the film, he is unifying everyone, and his so-called "personality" really makes all Apple customers can't use other products and can only be loyal to Apple. His system cannot be changed. The system has completely planned it for you. You have absolutely no ideas of your own, and you are bound. This is virus.
I'm not saying that Apple is not good here, I just think that if it goes on like this for a long time, we will resist him like his employees, like a bird that has been locked up for a long time and wants to spread its wings. His actions seemed to interpret the meaning of that flag, robbing you of your personality like a pirate.
Everyone is different,
but it must be admitted that
without the strength of Steve, Apple would not have been created.

    I don't think the director expected that 10 years later, Jobs would rebuild the dynasty again~

    The film "Silicon Valley Legend" is, as its title says, a "legend", and the stories told in it may not all be true, and even contain a lot of gossip. But at least, the film tells us that Jobs is a man, not a god. Interestingly, Bill Gates in this film is almost a treacherous villain - the reason why Microsoft is successful is entirely because of Bill Gates' "stealing chickens and dogs".

Pirates of Silicon Valley quotes

  • Ballmer: Bill, I don't know if it's the clothes on the floor or you, but something in here definitely needs to be hosed down.

  • Steve Jobs: What is this? This is like doing business with a praying mantis. You get seduced, and then eaten alive afterwards?

    Bill Gates: Get real, would ya? You and I are both like guys who had this rich neighbor - Xerox - who left the door open all the time. And you go sneakin' in to steal a TV set. Only when you get there, you realize that I got there first. I got the loot, Steve! And you're yellin'? "That's not fair. I wanted to try to steal it first." You're too late.
