I sorta, I have a single idee fixed that I'm completely obsessed with in.
我一直坚信，在商业领域
On the business side which is that, if you're starting a company,
如果你要创建一家公司
if you're the founder, entrepreneur starting a company, you always want to aim for monopoly,
如果你是一名创业者，企业家，你肯定希望垄断市场
and that you want to always avoid competition. Hence, competition is for losers.
避免竞争。因此，只有失败者才相互竞争
Something we'll be talking about today.
我们今天就来谈谈这个问题
I'd like to start by saying something about the basic idea of
首先我想要讲一个基本问题
when you start one of these companies how you go about,creating value?
如何给公司创造价值
And this question, what makes a business valuable?
什么使得生意有价值？
And I wanna, suggest that there's basically, a very simple very simple formula that
我认为可以用一个简单的公式来说明
you, have a valuable company two things are true.
对于一个有价值的公司，无外乎以下两点
Number one, that it creates X dollars of value for the world.
一，公司为世界创造了X美元的价值
And number two, that you capture Y% of X.
二，你占有X美元中的Y%
And the critical thing that I think people always miss in the sort of analysis
问题是人们在分析时经常会忽略一点
is that X and y are completely independent variables, and so X can be very big.
那就是X和Y是完全独立的变量，所以X可能很大
Y can be very small. X can be of intermediate size.
而Y很小，亦或X可能是一个适中的值
And if Y is, is reasonably big you can still get a very big business.
但只要Y很大，你仍然能赚很多
So, to create a valuable company you have to basically,
因此，要创立一个有价值的公司
both create something of value and capture some fraction of the value of what you've created.
你必须创造出价值，并且获取该价值的一部分
