<刊物發行量>
在GEM雜誌的總編輯退休與交接餐會上,雜誌負責人致詞時指出,
“We have to thank Ford that for 25 years under her stable leadership as general editor, GEM magazine reached an incredible _____ of 3.4 million issues per month at its peak.”此時,台下響起了一片掌聲。
請問在上述的英文句子中,空格處應該填入哪一個單字呢?
(A) numbers
(B) sales
(C) circulations
答案:(C)
解釋:circulation除了一般的意思是「循環」之外,在出版業還可以當作是「發行量」或是「銷售量」。因此上面的英文句子,中文的翻譯應該解為「我們必須感謝福特女士,在她二十五年來作為總編輯的穩健領導下,GEM雜誌在最高峰時期曾經到達單期三千四百萬本的月發行量。」

Elon Musk的演講藝術
Presentality的Andrew大大來幫大家分析了!
Elon Musk 違反賈伯斯時代的演講準則,反而加深自己的魅力!
Elon Musk 可說是全世界影響力最高的商業領袖之一,而且在媒體及社群媒體的聲望奇高無比(IG 有200萬追隨者,Twitter 有6000萬),甚至一句話就可以影響市場的走向。
★★★★★★★★★★★★
他肯定是溝通大師對不對?而且舞台魅力一定很強大?
Well... 從溝通成效的角度來看,他是很厲害沒錯,但如果你看任何一場他的演講,你肯定會覺得很困惑。你會覺得:這個人怎麼這麼尷尬,這麼不會講話?
隨便在 Youtube 上面搜尋他演講的影片,看個幾分鐘,你就會知道我們在說什麼了。看個幾分鐘就可以跳出至少以下的問題:
• 說話吱吱唔唔,贅字一堆
• 停頓在很尷尬的地方,感覺不知道自己在哪裡
• 投影片視覺,跟口述的內容常常對不起來
• 容易忘記自己要說什麼,明顯要去偷瞄一下投影片,不然無法繼續說等等...
啊... 那他到底厲害在哪裡?為什麼一個講話這麼尷尬不流暢的人,能夠迷惑全球這麼多人,發揮如此大的影響力?
我們看完一些他演講影片的結論,是他的魅力來源,跟「前一波」的商業領袖,如 Steve Jobs,截然不同。你甚至可以說,**他們的風格是完全相反的。**
我們今天就從 Musk 的一些演講中,來看他的反向操作!
★★★★★★★★★★★★
📌 反操作1:Jobs Overstates, Musk Understates
★★★★★★★★★★★★
首先,Steve Jobs 開始用的一個「技巧」,說好聽是「讚嘆」,說難聽就是「誇大」,不論發表的產品是否真的是突破性創新,反正就是用 "incredible"、"revolutionary" 等字眼來形容。英文的一個形容,就是 "overstatement" - 把什麼東西都講的「超過」一點。
結果一大堆商業演講的人,做產品無法像 Jobs,但用誇張的形容詞卻學的很像。
Musk 就不一樣。
他自己知道他做的事情很難(讓永續能源普及、把人類變成多個星球的物種),所以他反而用很「沒什麼大不了」的字眼跟語氣來傳達,反而讓這種「謙虛」變成一種效果。這個就不是 "overstatement",而是 “understatement" - 什麼東西都講的收斂一點。
舉個例子:他2016年介紹太陽能屋頂的時候,有描述一個很大,很難實現的未來,是這樣說的:
> What is the future that we want? It's consisted of really appealing solar roof... then combine that with storage, and with electric cars.
It's an obvious 3-part solution... Yeah... 3 part solution... uh...
It's really not that complicated.
沒錯,他講完之後停頓了一下,然後說嗯,對,就是三個部分,真的沒那麼複雜 lol。
好比在跟聽眾說:「啊就很簡單啊,你們還要我說什麼?」連聽眾都笑出來:
影片: https://youtu.be/4sfwDyiPTdU?t=187
★★★★★★★★★★★★
如果是賈伯斯派的門徒來說,可能會說:
➜We are building a grand future - a future of endless renewable energy and clean mobility, but with the sort of convenience you couldn't even imagine.
To build this, we've had to overcome a trinity of challenges that have bedeviled generations prior:
1. Houses that generate energy during the day all by themselves
2. Efficient and integrated storage
3. And the best electric cars the world has ever seen
Ok,我寫的有點誇張,但 you get the point。
★★★★★★★★★★★★
他最近在發表 Tesla Bot 的演講中,也描述了一個很大的未來,你看看他的說法:
➜ What is the economy? It is uh... at the foundation, it's labor. So what happens when there's... uh... no shortage of labor?
So I think in the long-term, there will need to be universal basic income (applause)... Not right now, because the robot doesn't work (laugh)... we just need a minute.
Essentially, in the future, physical work will be a choice... if you want to do it, you can, but you wouldn't need to do it. Obviously it has profound implications for the economy, because... the economy, at its foundational level, is labor, and capital is just distilled labor, then... is there an actual limit to the economy? Maybe not...
你很難想像有人可以把一些這麼遠大的願景 - 人力工作變成一個選擇、每人都享有基本收入等等 - 用更平鋪直述的方式,沒什麼好大驚小怪的語氣說出來。
連開發萬用機器人的難度,他都只是說 "We just need a minute" lol。
Again 歡迎你們自己看影片,體驗一下:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HUP6Z5voiS8
Btw... Musk 還隨口說了一句 "capital is just distilled labor"。別叫我翻譯,因為我根本不知道這是什麼意思,尤其是 "distilled" 在這裡的用意。如果你去 google "distilled labor",也找不到什麼東西,只有不到兩千個 search result。
有人會覺得 Musk 太聰明了,所以才會常常說出正常人不懂的話,但我個人覺得他是故意的:就是要「埋」一些每人聽得懂的話,才能加深他「天才」的形象。
Musk 把複雜困難的事情說成很簡單,還有另一個好處:就是大家可能會覺得「這些很難的事情,好像難不倒他耶,嗯他看來真的是個天才!」
大家可能有時候會聽人家說,在西方,就是要懂得如何吹捧自己。但其實有時候不一定要這樣。
💡你做的事情是真功夫時,謙虛反而會放大。
★★★★★★★★★★★★
📌 反操作2:尷尬反而是魅力
★★★★★★★★★★★★
其實,在賈伯斯用流暢的舞台表演稱霸市場之後,很多企業家都下苦工,練就一身演說武功。如 Bill Gates 或是 Mark Zuckerberg,都很明顯的從內向而且不會演講的人,變成老練的演說家。
Musk 很明顯沒有。Honestly, he's not even trying。
上面的影片,一個是2016年,一個是2021年,你覺得哪個舞台上的 Elon Musk,比較尷尬?這個當然有點主觀,但我兩個都看完之後,會覺得今年的他,講的更卡,更不好。
但是 Elon Musk 很明顯的根本沒有在 care 這一塊 lol。如果他有心要成為非常流暢的講者,你覺得這種小事能夠難倒他嗎?

🌻Morgan Stanley Mid-year Investor Outlook: A tricky transition
https://www.morganstanley.com/ideas/midyear-2021-global-markets-outlook
🌻在您投資生涯中, 有沒有一些觀念讓您受用很多?
下面這位投資名人的好觀念影響我很深. 他的意思是, 一般投資人, 只要能説出三個買一家公司的理由, 就很夠了. 這也迫使我, 每次在買股票時, 問自己對這家公司的了解有多少. 也會去衡量公司的優點與缺點在哪裡.
"It is vital (重要的) that you know what you own, that if I asked you on the street why you like a certain stock, you can give me three reasons. If you don't know how they make their money, who their key clients are and what they make if, then I will tell you that you are over your head and should not own individual stocks."
全文在此:
Jim Cramer: In Times Like This, Go for the Easy Money
Look at the stocks you own. Can you tell me why you've got them? If you can't answer the following three questions, then have a look at several I like right now.
We've endured the meme stock craziness, with all of its love for heavily shorted stocks. We have watched the collapse of bitcoin to levels viewed as shocking, even if they are still more than double where they were not that long ago. We've dealt with Fed officials making it clear that they are no longer on the side of the bulls or the bears. They are on the side of job growth, but are wary of inflation. We've seen the end of the rush to get vaccines, which means that millions of people are going to get the new COVID variant, because there is no natural immunity to it. We've watched as the hopes for an infrastructure bill have collapsed. We've endured shortages of everything from chips to plastic to imported goods and labor.
And we're still standing, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yep, we are in one of those halcyon moments, where the masks are off -- even if they shouldn't be -- and Americans are back doing what they do best: consume, spend, go out to eat and then consume and spend some more.
There are times in the stock market where the collective mindset is revealed. This is one of those times: Things are cool, it's not a big moment, there's no real news for a bit, it's the historically strong period and we can reach some conclusions about where we are.
When things are like this, it is important to remember that buyers like to revert to tried-and-true companies that thrive no matter what. These are companies that have an edge and are better at what they do than other companies.
You know that I am a great believer in index funds, that the average person doesn't have the time or the inclination to research individual stocks. It's a difficult barrier. I think you need to make time to read the quarterly report and listen to the conference call, to Google articles and, if possible, get some research about the companies you own. It is vital that you know what you own, that if I asked you on the street why you like a certain stock, you can give me three reasons. If you don't know how they make their money, who their key clients are and what they make if, then I will tell you that you are over your head and should not own individual stocks. I am reminded by this, because, once again, without a mask, I can be recognized and if I am not holding "Nvidia the Second," I can carry on a conversation.
I have had many in the last two weeks and when I have asked this litany of questions, I find myself at a loss as to why almost no one knew what they owned. But they thirsted for individual stocks, because they, like me, think things are better post pandemic. No, that's not a facetious comment. Many, many stocks did better with a stay-at-home economy. A huge number.
So what do I do? I revert to what others do when you are stumped about how to stay in touch with stocks, but want to do less homework. That means buying stocks that are accessible, not stocks like Unity (U) or Snowflake (SNOW) or Twilio (TWLO) or Okta (OKTA) .
I revert to normal businesses people know and I suggest they Google some articles, peruse the conference call, but, above all, like the company's products so you can buy more if it goes down.
Here's some that I have been telling people I like:
First is Ford (F) . I think the Ford lineup is amazing. The electric F-150 series will be incredible. I am eager to get a Maverick for my family, because it is a smaller pickup that will get the job done for the myriad little things I need to do with this farm I bought from that crazy bitcoin foray. I like the competitive edge of the CEO, who says he is going to bury Elon Musk when the Lightning comes out. I even think the Bronco is cool as all get out. Most important, though? I think the chip shortage is ending. My semiconductor friends are telling me the foundries are producing more feature-rich chips and that means Ford can pump out the trucks small business people love and need. Plus, the used car prices at last have plateaued, according to their most important pricing index. Halcyon times.
Second, Costco (COST) : The samples are coming back. Tell me you don't love the samples. You need things in bulk. You want low prices. You want to get all of the things that people don't think of with Costco, like insurance, hearing-aids -- hey, they are a fortune -- jewelry, things around the house. You go and you will buy far more than you first came for. My kind of store.
The kids love this American Eagle Outfitters (AEO) , which we just bought for my charitable trust, which you can follow along by joining the Action Alerts PLUS club. Jay Schottenstein, the CEO, came on "Mad Money" recently and it's clear that his Aerie model has real staying power: 26 consecutive quarters of double digit growth. No flash in the pan, that one. Number one brand in jeans for the 15 to 25 year old group. The best in the mall. How did I know this? I see the credit card bills.
I got up this morning to do my physical therapy. I have been doing it ever since I hurt my back in February. I have this really cool pair of sneakers that fit me perfectly and I love them, but I am fortunate enough to have a vacation house and I am always taking those shoes with me.
So I went on Amazon (AMZN) this morning and lo and behold I saw them for half price. I bought two pairs. Then I went over everything I have bought in the last year and got a bunch of those things. Then I bought a pair of binoculars, because mine were stolen. I paid half price.
Yep, Amazon's universal. I was talking to Alexa, while I was ordering, getting some new music on, asking questions. I saw that despite all of the Sturm und Drang of Amazon being late with things, all the delivery dates were within range. I didn't click on any ads, and I didn't need the speed of Web Services, but the whole thing reminded me about how special the darned company is. I don't care if it's ahead or behind plan for the moment. I would just buy some more when it goes down.
Finally, Apple (AAPL) . I think people who don't own Apple should look what they are holding at this very moment. Yes, right now. Or look at what's in your lap or on the table besides your fork. And then think about the bill you paid last night without knowing it. Think about what you bought in the App store yesterday. Think about what would happen if it would break or get stolen or, left in the Uber (UBER) , or heaven forbid, be dropped into the pool or in the, yes, toilet.
There, that's what you buy in halcyon times. Stocks of companies you know that if they go lower, because things get less halcyon, you are fine with it and buy more. If things go up, believe me, you will participate.
So accept the moment. Don't try for the hard money. Go for the easy kind. That's the best kind.
