一代科技巨人、美國蘋果公司創始人喬布斯月初辭世,全球各國政經要人及萬千果迷紛紛深表哀痛惋惜。喬布斯不但是才華橫溢的電腦天才,更是IT業創新的靈魂,其所領導的蘋果公司推出多款具革命性的產品,將科技、資訊與日常生活融為一體,成為科技潮流和生活時尚的寵兒,改變了世界。中國處於經濟轉型的關鍵時期,更需要培育類似喬布斯式的創造型人才,打造更多創新型企業,提升國家科技競爭力,使中國在世界經濟劇烈動盪的情勢之下,立於不敗之地。
中國經濟持續高速發展,同時正從「製造大國」向「創造大國」轉變,迫切需要喬布斯式的科技創新領軍人物,以不斷優化的創新思維,帶來產業的質變提升。中國科學界泰斗錢學森在生命的最後階段,發自肺腑地問道:「中國為何老是培養不出傑出人才?」這便是著名的「錢學森之問」。關鍵是中國社會要提供寬鬆自由的外部環境,讓創新思維有廣闊的發揮空間;另一方面創業者也要有喬布斯創新、進取、百折不撓、勇於衝破束縛、堅持真理的精神,若兩者迎頭相遇,相信誕生「中國的喬布斯」為時不遠。
China calls for creative leaders like Steve Jobs
Technology giant of our times, Steve Jobs, founder of the Apple Inc. of USA, passed away early this month. Key political and economic figures as well as numerous Apple fans around the world all expressed their deepest condolences. Steve Jobs was not only a talented computer genius but also a guiding spirit of innovations in the IT industry. Under the leadership of Steve Jobs, Apple Inc. rolled out design after design of revolutionary products which blended technology and information services into our daily life. These products, the favorites of many people, setting the trend of technological development and modern lifestyle, have changed the whole world. China is at the crux of economic transformation and more than ever it needs to develop creative talents like Steve Jobs. It is necessary that China establishes more innovative enterprises and enhances its technological competitiveness so that the country will not stand to lose in a state of global economy turmoil.
While enjoying a sustained rapid economic growth, China is transforming itself from being a manufacturing giant into an invention giant. China is urgently in need of leaders in the field of technological innovation, people like Steve Jobs, who can bring qualitative changes to the upgrading of the industrial sector with a kind of creative thinking that keeps perfecting itself. In his twilight years, Qian Xuesen, a most important scientist in China, asked this question from the bottom of his heart, 浠hy has China never been able to nurture its own outstanding talents?* This is the well-known 偓ian Xuesen Question*. On one hand, the key to this question is for the Chinese society to provide a free and liberal environment which allows greater space for creativity to demonstrate. On the other hand, entrepreneurs should also have the same spirit as Steve Jobs, i.e. be creative, enterprising, persevering, pioneering and adherent to truth. When these two conditions are met, it is very likely that the emergence of a Steve Jobs in China is just around the corner. ■Translation by 東明 tungming23@gmail.com
