Jobs and his early-times copartner.



Flowers may look as the same as the time goes by, but people are not of the same with each passing year.

The annual character is the Hotpoint of media and press, also the Cover Star on the flights.


Jack Ma is the star of 2014. people says that he is the next Jobs.
And some people asked, what is the ultimate purpose of listing the market? To change the consumption pattern and the way of living?
Actually, I put the biography of Jobs into my bag. Up the clouds, during the 20 hours long travel, I finished this thick book by the surprised cheering and applause for Alibaba through the random video.
The life of the technology giant who was born to change the world, also is the outstanding model of the cooperate business under the American dream spirit. Speaking from the personal character, Jobs is a confident and bigoted genius. He had a close heart but also owned a surprising creativity. He has a wonderful passion and originality, on the other hand, sometimes it seemed be driven by a evil demon. The double-faced personality made people around him feel angry and despair.

Only the bigoted genius has the creativity; but this is not the whole of the corporation. I always hold the view that Jobs made the fundamental key to the Apple corporation culture, but it contained the conception of self-ruin. The copartner business is not only for the personal self-realization, but also share the blame and responsibility. Therefore, in the copartner business, the personality, the mentality, and the minds are the determinate factor of altitude and duration. The sick personality of Jobs and this self-reclusive product are not fit with our opening society. This is the foreordination of Apple.
How long the way of Apple? It is really depend on the fortune.
The small company Apple was born in a garage. At April,1976, Wayne, Jobs and Steve Wozniak are built this computer company together. And Wozniak took in the team by Wayne’s persuade. Wayne designed the first Apple company logo and drafted the initial copartner contracts and the instruction manual of Apple One computer.
At the early times, Jobs had nothing but a designed blueprint without any reference. He had no capital, no product and no material, but he touched the retailer by a sample model. The retailer ordered 50 computers and required to Cash On Delivery. Then , he made the material credits and squeezed the microphone to him to show that she has the ability to pay off after this deal. After that, these partners invite some friends to crashing the order and finally they finished all the products before the deadline. after the first pot of gold, they attracted more investments and copartners by this success.  It can be concluded that the family and friendship are so important to the copartner business in early times.
Many people said, when you start a business or a cooperation, you can’t find your friends and relatives. But actually, if you are weak, the only group you can deal is them. Qiang Wang, the copartner of New Oriental said, if you do not ask help for your friends, who would you like to ask?
In the early times, Jobs regarded Wayne as the role of Father. Because of the adopted boy status, although Wayne was one of the founders, he had 10% stocks of the under-grown Apple company.
12 days after Wayne drafted the creating writ, he came back to the register office and quitted his job. On 12th April 1976, Wayne met a poor situation and he sold his shares to another two founder by  the price of 800 dollars.
One year later, Jobs and Wozniak decided to come into the market. Wayne received a letter to persuade him quit and a cheque of 1500 dollars. Plus the 800 dollars, it was 2300 dollars. This was all the income that he as a founder of Apple. And if the stock right still existed, the property now is 1 billion times of his old incomes. The 10% shares are worth the price of 2 billion dollars.
1978, Jobs was persuaded Wayne to join Apple company, but Wayne refused. He continued stay in Atari company, and then he went to some electronics corporations. But as one of the founders, Wayne was calm and modest. He said, “If I still work in Apple, maybe I would not live until now because of the heavy workload.” The death of Jobs is the footnote of his words.
On the December of 1980, the Apple stocks are listed which built by Jobs and his mate Steve Watts. Only in less than one hour, the 4.6 billion stocks were sold. Because of this event, Jobs is concentrated by others as the status of “the richest billionaire of Apple” This year, he was 25 years old.
But the good times didn’t last for long. Since the company’s high-rise didn’t have a unified management idea, Apple retreated one step after another in the intense competition of American IT industry. In the end, in 1985, Jobs was fired by Apple. If Jobs is not strong enough, he could not hold such kind of life full of ups and downs.
Would you like to live such kind of displaced life? Can you bear betrayal and expelling? 
Later, Jobs founded NeXT computer company and Pixar. It was said that NeXT had a terrible sale grades. In 1997, NeXt was purchased by Apple and Jobs returned. After Jobs came back to Apple, his changes were witnessed by some people. Being entrusted with a mission at a critical moment, Jobs acted as Apple’s CEO. But he only required 1dollor as his annual salary, at the same time he was also Pixer’ s CEO.
In fact, the earlier Jobs is not perfect even little mean. But with time passing by, life has steeled him. By taking in his partner, the first contrast that Jobs got is a design plan for a game. His partner Wertz did the work. When Jobs got the 1,000 design fee, he cheated Wertz that the opposite side just gave 600, so Wertz only received 300, on the other hand, Jobs got 700.
Jobs denied his daughter who is of his ex-girlfriend born and confirmed by DNA. Even though he has become a billionaire, he refused to pay the alimony. Then poor ex-girlfriend accused him, and Jobs failed. But Jobs still denied that daughter. At last, Jobs walked out of the shadow and admitted his daughter. As what YonghaoLuo said: he is a genius, but not a good man.
Jobs refused to share split-ups or stock rights with his pioneering co-workers. He was very disapproval when Wertz shared his stocks with these people by 1,000,000 per person. Finally, Jobs passed away; most of his fortune was given to his wife and three children. 
Apple in not perfect, nor do Jobs’ personality. As for cooperating, he also made some terrible mistakes. In that year, the third partner Wayne made a decision: he sold 10%of his Apple stock at the price of 800 dollars, which seems to be the most expensive mistake in the world. If Wayne holds his stock until now, he would own the treasure no less than 35,000,000,000 dollars.
But in this word, does the determine factor of world is money and wealth? In the last, Jobs became the world-famous IT giant, but the third copartner was enjoy his retirement. Wayne felt very calm.
“I never regret to make that decision. Everyone will escape from the two strangers, my decision was totally correct”
Wayne was not regretful at all as abandoning being one of the leaders of the most successful company in American history. AfterWayne retired, he livedn in Nevada and lived on selling valuable stamps, rare coins and gold coins. 

In 1994, Wayne sold a document relating to the Apple’s fundaments to a private collector. A common person would be defeated by the suffering and self-doubt of missing these reputation and wealth. But Wayne lived on his own life and never thought about that. Life is too short, the American Wayne’s thought is more like Chinese Taoism’s. a person’s whole life, meeting and even imagine are all coming with nothing and going with nothing.
When 56-year-old Jobs dying of disease, 77-year old Wayne said with strong emotion: “ they are real workaholics, like hurricanes. It is good for career but terrible for health. If I worked with them in the past, I could have been the richest person in the tomb.”
“ anyway, I never doubted the successful potential of Apple , but I know it will go through various of ups and downs.”
When being asked the plan for future, Wayne made fun of his age: “the person at the age of mine could not do anything.”
In the winter of 2011, Wayne’s autobiography Adventures of an Apple Founder: Atari, Apple, Aerospace & Beyond was published. He is trying to change the world in his way. 
As the Apple’s originator Wayne proved his existence in this world by writing his books, sometimes fate between people is gradually faded with time passing.
There are some warm stories in Ma Yun’s American road show, as some common people were interviewed ,which seems like a dream persuasion of American value. However, Chinese media is very shadow. They interviewed Ma Yun’s desk mate, MatsterPu as well as his classmateShengdong Kong, a driver on the day when Alibaba came into the market. Master Pu was 40 and had part-time jobs. And Shengdong Kong was awarded as the international madel worker.
The media lamented the chances in life and described them as one person managing news-stand and one driving bus. Actually, this kind of chance takes place in China, in America, in Alibaba as well as in Apple.
The founder of 360 Hongyi Zhou said: “What opposed to the story of Apple’s tolerant originator Wayne was that in China: we believed that a winner was king while the loser was bandits, which stop the creative development.”
In 2014, Hongyi Zhou is a hot shoot in China. Although his reputation is not as high as Ma Yun, he was very well-known in Chinese internet field. He published a book called my methodology of internet which talks about methodologies and values of internet.
Hongyi Zhou guided us to embrace internet. Firstly, he presell in many platforms such as Jingdong, and he prepared more than 1,600,000 Yuan in a month.
At the same time, Hongyi Zhou held an internet brainstorm sharing session in Beijing and Shanghai. The honoured guest in Beijing was Qiangdong Liu and Xiaoping Xu, in Shanghai was NanpengShen, which was a little creation of book publishing using internet.
Mr. Shunli Yuan, the co-originator of Xiakuajie, is my ten-year friend. He joinedHongyi Zhou’s secret lunch party. He told us that the best draught in china even in the next ten years is internet and what we should do is following the draught closely and standing by the draught.
Up the high clouds, while I was thinking and grasped the draft, the plane was steadily flying up the land.
I saw the most splendid color in my idea life. The clouds are alike to the 
sheep and it piling up and becoming the wadding, then, they flying away. The gorgeous sun integrated the horizon line. As to the sunlight, it is so beautiful. The dyed bright sun and the sunlight are freezing a part of time.
What is the times? What is the great times? And what is the brand of times?
I think that the 5 cases in this book are the real brands of times. These cases branded with the unchangeable times.
The sun, sunlight and the clouds make the passing-by-wind time, but these 5 kinds partners tell the legend of Chinese cooperate way.
 
They experienced love, hate, the internal strife and dismiss. But they were really lived. This is the unchangeable thing. And the story of their cooperation and dismiss, although it experienced years, they are worth it.
This book. has modified through 3 years. I just use this book to souvenir my distant granma.
I am in the migratory North America. At a dreaming night, I saw you are waving for me at a high mountain. At the back of the mountain. These are familiar and beloved orange flowers. They are so beautiful and fragrant.
I almost forget your appearance, but the power of kinship will help you to go through the strange and helpless places, the oceans, the glaciers, the polar regions and soils. You pull me through the thought. You help me to back my hometown and  let me know who I really am.
At the golden-autumnal October, also the North America morning with cold wind, I finally can not sleep. I always think China is just like a dream. I have totally forgot this book, but the perseverance make me to pick it up now.
