Black Marco Share this article Forbes Chinese network, you see the author is you Secret 7 Things might not know: 1, you only live once; 2, rules and destruction; 3, I believe, 'I believe the power'; 4, you are 'selected'; the 5, value and price; 6, 'enough 'is not enough; 7, imagination and execution. Find inspiration, digging a dark horse, comment hotspot, copy nature - here is the dark horse news agency: do PreAngel from since, every year I find time to go to the United States once or twice, mainly in Silicon Valley (Bay Area) area to meet local friends, they are mainly VC, entrepreneurs, students entrepreneurial organization responsible Stanford and Berkeley, the wireless technology field people in charge of the various organizations, I have been trying to develop an understanding of the worldwide high-tech listed companies the most intensive areas, it has a kind of special at what we can learn from, let us return to the 'country' can also make a difference; at the same time, I want to know, those of us 'hillbilly,' there is no chance in the world's most intelligent people-intensive area, find their footing, the future can invest a few, like Google, Facebook as a great company? to the more feel the deeper, although only fur, the Silicon Valley to bring my feelings have been very deep, in share this with you: 1) You Only Live Once - you only live once my PreAngel called American Venture Partner Boyd, a native of San Francisco, he speaks fluent Chinese, he told me that recently popular Bay Area YOLO this argument, Full purporting You Only Live Once, literal meaning is very simple, profound meaning. From that day if we have the ability to think independently enough attention on this phrase, may each of us today are not the same. Most of China's economic mainstay of today's population, are in fact somehow live for others, for parents, for children, for our friends. Sometimes, it seems you have chosen your life, it is not, you live in someone else for you to create the image, if you are not satisfied with the state of your life today, eight is you do not live for yourself! In fact, you they live well, that is the greatest contribution to society, because everyone is unique, all have different abilities and preferences, if the whole society to follow your heart and live, each of us would someone do the same job, and do it better! This sentence Despite the recent popularity, but it is a common ideological Bay summarizes, that is to say, many American schools children would have done so, at least more than we realized earlier domestic children 'live for themselves' the truth. The whole society to give support to this ideology, such as the most understanding parents can not be in China's dropout entrepreneurs, such as the poor to give up high-paying backpack trips, such as one with his totally 'no match' of marriage, such as I was in a break apartment to make a 'bitter force' of artists, there are so many girls choose to be a single mother ...... When a person chooses to live their lives when, TA tend to have more long-lasting perseverance, or so-called entrepreneurs are most needed. ' perseverance. ' YOLO, from a point of view explains why Silicon Valley has the world's highest density of outstanding entrepreneurs. 2) Rules \u0026 amp;! Disruptive - Rules and destruction in the United States driven a car knows, we are talking about the rules on the road, driving high efficiency for example, the famous Chinese Silicon Valley angel investor Li Jun (fast Chong camp partner) said that once he sat a domestic business trip to the Bay Area who opened the car, he found every intersection, even if the light is green, this brother will bring the foot brake, then he asked curiously why? This the man replied: 'I fear on both sides of a car rather abruptly sprang to ah!' have not been to the American people may be curious, this is normal ah, what a surprise. But in the United States Air Jordan 18 opened a car you know, when you're straight, if not Stop Sign and red light, you bold enough to open, both sides will not have a car sprang to; because either be on both sides of the lane intersection red, or there will be Stop Sign, Stop Sign see Americans drove sure to stop taking a closer look at the walk, even if no Stop Sign, turning the car also must let the car go straight, it will bloom very slow taking a closer look. This car can go straight to open the bold! You see, a good rule is designed to allow everyone driving efficiency is improved, as long as we have observed, all profit! In the business field, you can understand, in a good under the regulatory framework and innovative, you will be more efficient, you need not worry about someone 'plot.' This is the destruction of healthy innovation: based on the following basic rules we abide by the framework, through innovative technology, design, operation or business models rather subvert a lazy old industries (business) process. Disruptive innovation is outdated system damage and enterprising business, belongs to the category survival of the fittest, are benign metabolism! We are currently in the Air Jordan 3 Retro country have seen too many 'unhealthy' business case can be understood as the case to a certain extent. ' break the rules type business ', undermine the development of the company's rules mean that affected the entire industry, health, and even damage the interests of most consumers, these entrepreneurs do not abide by the rules is the' rush from both sides of the road out of the driver ' on the one hand they are likely to be washed out of the vehicle straight hit, suffer; on the other hand, they appear to lead to a wide range of drivers through the intersection should be straight with the foot brake, the entire transport efficiency is therefore affected. This is another difference between us on both sides of the root cause might be 'business purpose' is different, one side is to 'make money' and 'speculation', so regardless of the environment, for industry, for consumers, for the society's 'destruction'; while more to the 'ideal' and entrepreneurship. Or you can say the Bay Area entrepreneurs grow and living environment for them to form a habit of thinking, not easily 'destroy everyone abide by the rules,' high side 'breaking the rules' costs. This time, I should 丁若宇 invited to give some students at Stanford Business School, made a point Air Jordan XX8 to share, and I know they've heard too many chiefs of speech, I do not know what is good to share, so my new entrepreneurs faith The 5:00 refining share them, Boyd said, I share these five points explained, 'I should belong to the Silicon Valley.' 3) Believe the power of belief - believe that 'I believe the power of' the purpose of this business with you, and if you are to live your life, ideal for business, then you will 'believe' your career, believe what you see future, this 'convinced' itself is a powerful force, very Powerful, this power can help you set up the team, preparing funding, building products, brand marketing, sales and service of your entrepreneurial path ...... though thorny, but you still every mountain open, indomitable. Many entrepreneurs did not notice, 'their ideals of faith' is in itself a source of strength, you think that you painted cake to attract team, do you think is your plan for the Nike Shoes future listing of attracting investors, you thought it was your glib attract customers, you thought it was your plain sailing attracted media coverage ...... you're wrong, if not 'the power of faith', your cake, your vision, your glib, will disappear again and again into the market storm. In the narrow escape of the entrepreneurial process, the only inexhaustible energy to give you, only your 'faith', without him! So, give up what can not give up the faith! If you do not believe what you do, then you rely on What makes people believe in looking back, many companies fail, the root cause of all the founders decided to give up the original faith, then all around the periphery of the TA are gone with the wind 4) You were chosen -?! you are 'is selected 'Although I am an atheist, but I believe that aliens, or more intelligent creatures, but that is not our understanding of the Jade Emperor, Allah, Jesus or other religious figures. Each of us is born different, so like I mentioned in the first article of You Only Live Once, tells us, Be yourself! Everyone reason like this are 'selected', our life is many times the selection process, seemingly doing different choices every day, in fact, we are 'has been selected to make this choice,' no matter what we choose, are 'your mission.' So why not point our own heartfelt love, and good at doing? Why are you good at music, why I'm good at socializing, why he was a good manager? If this is to be arranged, submissive heart of the most important, and only do you like most and do best, you can be the happiest, while at the same time, the operation of the world will be more efficient, as long as you choose the most suitable for you, it also means that this is doomed. Do not blame your heart called 'God' is not fair, you are on your own 'God', because your will is in your heart, 'God' will. So, back to that sentence up, You only live once, so be yourself, be your own GOD 5) Valuation vs Price -! Value and price if your heart tells you, you like to open a small bar at the beach, carefree daily living. OK, Nike Lunar Haze no problem! If your heart tells you, you go down through the ages will want to do a career, to make the world a better place. OK, then that is your mission, then you'll do all the energy go to complete your mission. You will succeed! Here we can mention the value and price problems. If you want to accomplish a great mission, we can say it is priceless (Priceless), if in order to complete this mission, you need to find investors and financing, then how do you give yourself Pricing? If you consider yourself free price, then you with a price estimate of financing, then naturally not melt. I think your project is truly priceless reflect after, no one can guarantee your success, so the initial valuation should not be too concerned with 'price', but determined to win to get Smart Money, Smart Money can be called understood to share with your Vision, but also provide valuable than money resources to help investors. Too much to care about the 'price' of entrepreneurs and investors may not the way, if you start on the valuation relatively large differences, it is recommended not to tangle both direct mutual Pass. The valuation of start-ups in Silicon Valley angel financing side stage but relatively cheap compared with Beijing, but when the A round because products and certain data, its valuation will skyrocket, Beijing's investment many times people actually do not see Understood. Highlights the value when the valuation is not a problem, so we can refer to Silicon Valley entrepreneurs, early do not care about the valuation, the sense of an angel holding a Smart Money ideal product to do it, then naturally there will be market to you reasonable 'valuation.' 6) Enough is not enough - 'enough' enough that I respected geek spirit, so-called geeks, in my opinion is in a pursuit of the ultimate segments to abnormal levels of people, geeks are not limited to the technical field . Because culture and American culture of the Bay Area is a 'encourage cultural' get a little success early age children will receive 'Amazing' and so on to commend the parties, to encourage children to do better, so whether it is technology, Air Jordan 3 Retro arts areas, product areas, marketing, there will be a lot of geeks. Especially the Internet and mobile Internet business areas in which we mentioned, these geeks worldwide popularity has made numerous innovative products, countless! Is now a business development level and the market is fiercely competitive era, the majority of people demands have been met, the new entrepreneurs who are either looking for opportunities to subvert the old industry with a strong core technology, or in emerging markets looking for new products that bring new requirements (eg iPhone accessories brought demands, etc.). However, no matter what, to the achievements of a great company, we all need a geek Leader responsible products, like Steve Jobs as the pursuit of perfection to the extent of metamorphosis. First geeks can always see farther than the common people, after all Air Jordan 2 TA experience and tried-related products much more than ordinary people, otherwise it can not be called a geek; secondly, geeks responsible for their own products has more than the market 10 times on the product requirements, it is generally not easily release products, but each release will give users 'amazing' or 'shock' feeling, to be able to maximize the target customer loyalty; and finally, very Products usually maximize customer brought by various media coverage, so eliminating the marketing costs, so that good wine needs no bush! In Silicon Valley, even companies like Evernote and Tesla were once nearly died, official They seek the most extreme ideas led to the company several times on the verge of bankruptcy, officially because of the power of their strong faith in the most critical moment to help them through the difficulties of the last achievements of the best companies worldwide attention! If a company's Leader Geek is a field, I would be very willing to invest in TA, do my best to help him solve the things he is not good, so he focused on the launch of a product to make the world amazing; if a company Leader always felt 'almost on the line a 'very good Shanghao than the market by 50%, then he might be a good businessman, you may create a profitable pretty good company; but he will not create the next Facebook, the next Tesla, the next Google ... 7) Imagination \u0026 amp; Execution - imagination and execution since 'Avatar' in domestic release, IMAX or IMAX + 3D movies we have become a must-see, most recently Tom Cruise's 'Mission Impossible 4' and 'left fall border war ',' Star Trek 2 ',' Iron Man 3 'and so on, has brought us' immersive 'viewing experience, from the cinema all sigh a huge change technology to bring life, also lamented Hollywood imagination and execution. At the same time, we can not help but ask ourselves why these are Hollywood blockbusters, why China decided it no education because we always thought that the Chinese most intelligent, but the Chinese make a film as good as Americans;?? Is the environment determines it? Because the Hollywood film industry leader for 50 years at least, so there is precipitation;?! Is it because of funding decisions, the Hollywood production costs hundreds of millions of dollars in fact, in the field of Internet start-ups, we often lamented that many companies in Silicon Valley is more than We have imagination, such as my favorite IFTTT, there Airbnb, ZipCar, Twitter, Pinterest, Google Glass, Siri ... this time I told a bunch of Stanford, UCLA, Berkeley and other Silicon Valley venture out student chat, they There is a very interesting point of view. They think that the reason why there are so many great Silicon Valley companies, first of all because there are a lot of start-up companies in Silicon Valley, a huge base will naturally come out a few good, relatively speaking, in fact, died of small companies is so great, but we do not know only. Silicon Valley business environment to stimulate more people to join the wave of entrepreneurs with their words called 'cohabitation', 'variety'; indeed I have exchanged one of Silicon Valley start-up team for three months from Italy, where just like the Internet Geeks gold shrine. However, it also gives us an inspiration, the Bay Area has the best business environment around the world, so it attracts the largest number of entrepreneurs in a highly competitive market environment, who became the focus of world attention that can come to the fore valuation fry all the way to heaven Finally, share media had not reported a Silicon Valley story:! A local Chinese VC communicate with me, she said she came to know through a friend in Silicon Valley shortly after an extremely intelligent young entrepreneurs, technology strong, doing something cool, but still the early stages, she intends to follow up the next round can; then she returned to two months, to return to Silicon Valley, I heard people say Facebook bought the company, 100 million dollars! She implemented with the founder of the Silicon Valley really is an incredible feeling place, this solid two if you really have a lot of giants for their own strategic purpose by a 'high aspirations' of price EDIT:!
