苹果劲敌: 三星对自己的"危机意识"

2013-04-11来源:网易

危机意识

"Change everything but your wife and children," Samsung chairman Lee Kun-Hee famously said 20 years ago when he announced the new management initiative that launched Samsung's entry into batteries, silicon chips and, eventually, display panels and smartphones.
三星集团(Samsung)董事长在20年前说过一句名言:“除了你的老婆和孩子,一切都可以改变。”当时他提出了全新的管理计划,开始带领三星进军电池、硅片,以及最终的显示器面板和智能手机领域。

Change often follows Lee's long overseas trips. Immediately after a 2010 voyage he shifted the company into emergency mode, cut executive paychecks and overseas travel, and announced that most of Samsung's existing products would be gone in 10 years.So there was considerable anticipation, the Korea Timesreports, when he returned Saturday from a three-month sojourn in Japan and Hawaii.
每次李健熙的海外长途旅行之后,都伴随着公司的调整。2010年的航程结束之后,他立刻将公司转为紧急状态,削减了高管的薪水和海外旅游福利,同时宣布三星现有的产品大多将在10年内淘汰。韩国时报(Korea Times)报道,因此他上周六结束为期三个月的日本和夏威夷之旅返回后,人们都很期待这次的改变。

"You should always have a sense of crisis. You should run faster and always study to have insights," Lee told the more than four dozen media outlets that met him at the airport in hopes that he might offer a hint of what Samsung has in store.
数十家媒体候在机场,希望李健熙能够透露一些三星将要产生的调整。他对媒体说:“你需要一直有危机意识。你得跑得更快,同时不懈学习,从而具备洞察力。”

Among the issues Lee is expected to address on his return, according to the Korea Times' chief Samsung watcher, Kim Yoo-Chul, are the ongoing patent disputes with Apple (AAPL), Samsung's future investments and how to reduce the company's reliance on its mobile business.
韩国时报的首席三星观察员金荣柱表示,李健熙回国后将处理一系列问题,其中包括:与苹果(Apple)的专利权纠纷,公司未来的投资计划,以及如何减少公司对手机业务的依赖性等。

The day before Lee's return, Samsung announced that it expected first quarter profits to be up 53% year over year, fueled largely by smartphone sales.
李健熙回国的前一天,三星宣布第一季度利润预计将同比增长53%,很大程度上是得益于智能手机的销量。
