欧美文化博览 天才史蒂夫·乔布斯改变世界(5)(在线收听

 

When the Mac is released in early 1984, sales are underwhelming. Steve Jobs hits the wall, hard. And the Macintosh is a flop. And his stock within Apple is diminished, because he's focused on creating this new machine that has failed.

Eventually, things get better for the Mac, but they get a whole lot worse between Jobs and Scully. By early 1985, the two aren't even talking.

I got them together to try to resolve the issue. At that meeting, Steve got very emotional, and he started crying and I started to look at Scully sort of steel eyes that he saw weakness in Steve that he probably used against him. And I believe he went to the board and said this guy is unstable and so we need to take action here.

当Mac在1984年初上市时,销售非常惨淡。史蒂夫·乔布斯曾在那一时刻停滞不前。麦金塔是个失败产物。苹果的股票随即一落千丈,因为乔布斯竭力创造的这台新机器最终以失败而告终。

最终Mac的销售有了起色。但是,早在1985年乔布斯和史高丽工作之间却有着严重的分歧。两人甚至打起了冷战互相不搭理对方。

我把他们聚集在一起,试图解决这个问题。在那次会议上,史蒂夫情绪异常激动,随即他开始哭,而我开始看着史高丽坚毅的眼神,似乎他发现了可以用来对付史蒂夫的弱点。我相信他曾去过董事会,并说了史蒂夫这个傢伙非常不稳定,我们需要采取行动等等的话。
