创业公司如何才能成功
演讲者：bill gross
i"m really e_cited to share with you some findings that really surprise me about what makes companies succeed the most, what factors actually matter the most for startup success.i believe that the startup organization is one of the greatest forms to make the world a better place.
非常高兴，能够与你们分享 一些使我感到十分惊讶的发现。 这些发现是关于什么最能使公司成功以及对于创业公司，什么因素最要紧。 我相信，创业组织是使世界成为更好的地方的最伟大的形式之一。
if you take a group of people with the right equity incentives and organize them in a startup, you can unlock human potential in a way never before possible. you get them to achieve unbelievable things.but if the startup organization is so great, why do so many fail? that"s what i wanted to find out.
如果你能用合适的股权激励来召集一帮人 并且把他们组织起来创业的话 你就能以前所未有的方式释放了人类潜能。 并引领他们去完成不可置信的事情。 但是，如果创业组织那么伟大，为什么还会有很多失败呢? 这就是我想要探究的问题。
i wanted to find out what actually matters most for startup success.and i wanted to try to be systematic about it, avoid some of my instincts and maybe misperceptions i have from so many companies i"ve seen over the years.i wanted to know this because i"ve been starting businesses since i was 12 years old when i sold candy at the bus stop in junior high school。
我想要了解，对创业公司的成功来说， 到底什么最为重要。 我也想要对此问题系统化的分析，避免一些因为我这些年看到许多公司 而得来的直觉上的误解。 我想要知道这个，因为，我从12岁上初中，在汽车站售卖糖果时， 便开始我自己的商业活动。
to high school, when i made solar energy devices, to college, when i made loudspeakers. and when i graduated from college, i started software companies. and 20 years ago, i started idealab, and in the last 20 years, we started more than 100 companies, many successes, and many big failures. we learned a lot from those failures.so i tried to look across what factors accounted the most for company success and failure.
在高中时，我做太阳能设备的生意， 在大学时，我做扩音器生意。 当我从大学毕业的时候，我成立了一家软件公司。 20__年前，我成立了创意实验室， 在过去的20__年里，我们成立超过100家公司。 其中，很多成功了，也有很多失败了。 我们从那些失败中学到了很多。 所以，我尝试去探索是什么因素导致公司的成败。
so i looked at these five. first, the idea. i used to think that the idea was everything. i named my company idealab for how much i worship the "aha!" moment when you first come up with the idea. but then over time, i came to think that maybe the team, the e_ecution, adaptability, that mattered even more than the idea.
所以我关注在这5点。 第一，创意。 我过去认为，创意就是全部。 我将我的公司命名为创意实验室， 是因为，我十分推崇，当你首次想到某个想法的时候，"aha"(啊哈)开窍的时刻。 但是，随着时间的推移， 我认为或许团队、执行力或者是适应力， 比创意更要紧。
i never thought i"d be quoting bo_er mike tyson on the ted stage, but he once said, "everybody has a plan, until they get punched in the face." (laughter) and i think that"s so true about business as well. so much about a team"s e_ecution is its ability to adapt to getting punched in the face by the customer. the customer is the true reality. and that"s why i came to think that the team maybe was the most important thing.
我从没想过，我会在ted的舞台上，引用拳王泰森的话，但是，他曾经说过， "每个人都有计划，直到被人打脸为止。"(笑声) 我认为，对于生意也是这样的。 对于一个团队的执行力为说，最要紧的， 是它使自己能适应被客户打脸的能力。 客户就是真理。 这就是为什么我认为 团队是最重要的事情。
then i started looking at the business model. does the company have a very clear path generating customer revenues? that started rising to the top in my thinking about maybe what mattered most for success.then i looked at the funding. sometimes companies received intense amounts of funding. maybe that"s the most important thing?
然后，我开始关注商业模式，就是这个公司是否有一条清晰的能产生客户收益的路线图吗? 商业模式开始成为我对什么对成功最重要 这一思考的重点。 然后，我关注了资金。有时候一些公司会去吸纳大量的资金， 也许这是最重要的事情?
and then of course, the timing. is the idea way too early and the world"s not ready for it? is it early, as in, you"re in advance and you have to educate the world? is it just right? or is it too late, and there"s already too many competitors? so i tried to look very carefully at these five factors across many companies. and i looked across all 100 idealab companies, and 100 non-idealab companies to try and come up with something scientific about it.
当然还有时机，这个想法是不是太早了，我们还没有做好迎接它的准备? 它是不是太超前了以至于你不得不来教导世界? 它恰在时机吗? 或者它是不是太晚，已经有太多的公司竞争? 所以我努力去认真考察这五个因素在公司中的影响。 我考察了100家创意实验室下的公司， 还有100家非创意实验室下的公司， 试图提出一些科学的东西。
so first, on these idealab companies, the top five companies -- citysearch, carsdirect, goto, netzero, tickets.com -- those all became billion-dollar successes. and the five companies on the bottom -- z.com, insider pages, mylife, desktop factory, peoplelink -- we all had high hopes for, but didn"t succeed.so i tried to rank across all of those attributes how i felt those companies scored on each of those dimensions. and then for non-idealab companies, i looked at wild successes, like airbnb and instagram and uber and youtube and linkedin.
首先，在这些创意实验公司里，排在前面的五家公司 citysearch ,carsdirct, goto, netzero, tickets.com 最后都成为了十亿美元以上的成功公司 而下面的五家公司 z.com, insider pages, mylife,desktop factory, peoplelink 我们曾寄以重望，但没有成功。 所以我试图就这些公司在每个因素中的得分，给它们排序。 然后对于非创意实验公司，我关注极度的成功者， 像airbnb，instagram, uber ,youtube ,linkedln
and some failures: webvan, kozmo, pets.com flooz and friendster. the bottom companies had intense funding, they even had business models in some cases, but they didn"t succeed. i tried to look at what factors actually accounted the most for success and failure across all of these companies, and the results really surprised me.the number one thing was timing.
还有一些失败的案例，webvan,kozmo,pets.com flooz 和 friendster 垫底的公司都有雄厚的资金 一些案例甚至有商业模式在里面 但是，他们并没有成功。 我尝试考察在这些成功和失败的案例中 到底什么因素真的最重要 结果让我大吃一惊 最重要的是时机，
timing accounted for 42 percent of the difference between success and failure. team and e_ecution came in second, and the idea, the differentiability of the idea, the uniqueness of the idea, that actually came in third.now, this isn"t absolutely definitive, it"s not to say that the idea isn"t important, but it very much surprised me that the idea wasn"t the most important thing. sometimes it mattered more when it was actually timed.the last two, business model and funding, made sense to me actually.
在解释成功和失败的差异中时机占42% 团队和执行力排在次位 然后是创意 创意的差异，或者说创意的独特性 实际上排在第三位 它不是决定性的不是说创意不重要 但创意不是最重要的，这还是让我惊讶 有时候更重要的是它是否恰对时机 最末尾的两项，商业模式和资金，实际上对我意义深远
i think business model makes sense to be that low because you can start out without a business model and add one later if your customers are demanding what you"re creating. and funding, i think as well, if you"re underfunded at first but you"re gaining traction, especially in today"s age, it"s very, very easy to get intense funding.
我认为商业模式 之所以不那么重要 是因为没有商业模式，你也可以创业 要是你的客户正需要你的创新时，更是如此 至于资金，我认为也一样 如果你一开始资金不足然而却可以不断发展 实际上今天的时代 要想得到大量的资金真的非常非常的容易 那现在让我针对每个方面举一些具体的事例
so now let me give you some specific e_amples about each of these. so take a wild success like airbnb that everybody knows about. well, that company was famously passed on by many smart investors because people thought, "no one"s going to rent out a space in their home to a stranger." of course, people proved that wrong. but one of the reasons it succeeded, aside from a good business model, a good idea, great e_ecution, is the timing.that company came out right during the height of the recession when people really needed e_tra money, and that maybe helped people overcome their objection to renting out their own home to a stranger.same thing with uber.
就以家耳熟能详的airbnb为例吧 这家公司一开始曾被很多投资者pass掉了 因为大家觉得 "没人会腾出家里的一块地方出租给陌生人" 当然，后来证明大家是错的 但是它成功的一个原因 除了好的商业模式，好创意，强大的执行力之外 就是时机 就在经济危机的最高潮时，该公司出现了.这时人们真的很需要挣点外快 这或许帮助人们克服了要把自己的 房间出租给一个陌生人的障碍 对于uber，情况相同
uber came out, incredible company, incredible business model, great e_ecution, too. but the timing was so perfect for their need to get drivers into the system. drivers were looking for e_tra money; it was very, very important.some of our early successes, citysearch, came out when people needed web pages. goto.com, which we announced actually at ted in 1998, was when companies were looking for cost-effective ways to get traffic.
uber的诞生 难以置信的公司，难以置信的商业模式 也有强大的执行力 但当它们需要拉司机进入到这个体系时 时机恰好是那么完美 司机们正需要挣外快，这点至关重要 我们早期的一些成功范例，像citysearch城市搜索，就在大家需要网页的时候诞生了goto.com，这个我们早在1998年就在ted上说过 是在公司寻找划算的获得流量的方法时诞生的
we thought the idea was so great, but actually, the timing was probably maybe more important. and then some of our failures. we started a company called z.com, it was an online entertainment company. we were so e_cited about it -- we raised enough money, we had a great business model, we even signed incredibly great hollywood talent to join the company. but broadband penetration was too low in 1999-20__. it was too hard to watch video content online, you had to put codecs in your browser and do all this stuff, and the company eventually went out of business in 20__.
我们曾经认为创意是那么重要 然而实际上，时机或许更重要些 然后是一些失败的例子 我们曾创立过一个叫z.com的线上娱乐公司 我们对此满怀期待 我们筹集了大量的资金，我们有一个很棒的商业模式 甚至我们还将伟大的好莱坞天才们签进公司 但1999到20__年的宽带普及程度实在太低 要想在网上看视频太困难了 你不得不向浏览器加入多媒体数字信号编解码器，要加入所有编解码器， 最后这家公司最终在20__年退出了市场
just two years later, when the codec problem was solved by adobe flash and when broadband penetration crossed 50 percent in america, youtube was perfectly timed. great idea, but unbelievable timing. in fact, youtube didn"t even have a business model when it first started. it wasn"t even certain that that would work out. but that was beautifully, beautifully timed.
仅仅在两年之后,当adobe flash 解决了编解码问题 并且全美的宽带普及度达到50%后 youtube正中时机 好的创意，不可思议的时机 事实上，youtube 一开始都没有一个商业模式 也不确定它是否会成功 但它是如此漂亮地正中时机 所以总结来说，我要说的就是执行力真的很重要 创意很重要
so what i would say, in summary, is e_ecution definitely matters a lot. the idea matters a lot. but timing might matter even more. and the best way to really assess timing is to really look at whether consumers are really ready for what you have to offer them. and to be really, really honest about it, not be in denial about any results that you see, because if you have something you love, you want to push it forward, but you have to be very, very honest about that factor on timing.
是，时机更重要 而真正要去评估时机的最佳方法 就是真的去考察消费者是否真的做好准备 为你所提供的服务做好准备 对此，一定要实事求是 不要否认你所看到的任何结果 因为如果你有喜爱的东西，你会想推动它 但你不得不对时机这个因素非常非常的诚实
as i said earlier, i think startups can change the world and make the world a better place. i hope some of these insights can maybe help you have a slightly higher success ratio, and thus make something great come to the world that wouldn"t have happened otherwise.thank you very much, you"ve been a great audience.
正如我之前所说,我认为创业公司可以改变世界，让世界更加美好 我希望这些见解 可以帮助你们提高一点点成功的几率 这样就可以给世界带来一点 本不会发生的好的改变 十分感谢，你已经是一名伟大的听众。

the president: hello, everybody! (applause.) oh, it is good to be in l.a.! (applause.)it is colder in d.c.at the moment, colder in chicago, and 70-degree weather is something tobethankful for.
and it is great to be atdreamworks animation. i would like towork here. (laughter.) i haveasked jeffrey. the only concern i had was the lights werekind of dim in the offices and -- (laughter) -- i’m pretty sure i’d fallasleep. but there’s a natural connectionbetween me anddreamworks. i don’t knowif you know this, but my ears were one of the inspirations for “shrek.” (laughter.) that’s true. true story.
mellody was being very modestwhen she said she had a front-row seat. mellody was one ofmy earliest supporters back when nobody couldpronounce my name. and her and johnrogers atarial capital helped to co-chair some of my first fundraisers. andthey’d have to drag somestraggly group in, kicking and screaming, and write acheck and listen to this young senatorwho had a lot of ideas but notnecessarily any realistic prospects to win. and she went througha lot of ups and downs with me and my career and isjust a great, great friend. so i wanttothank her publicly for all the support that she’s given us. (applause.)
we’ve got some folks here who arefighting for the people of southern california every singleday and i just wantto acknowledge them. we’ve got the mayorof glendale, dave weaver. (applause.) we’vegot three of your outstanding members of congress -- brad sherman, adamschiff,karen bass. they are all doing a greatjob. (applause.)
i want to thank all of you forbeing here. and i want to thank yourceo, jeffrey katzenberg,for inviting me. (applause.) jeffrey, like mellody, has been a friend and a supporterthroughthick and thin. and i think hisplace in the entertainment industry is legendary -- i don’t needto puff him uptoo much. (laughter.) he has a healthy sense of self. (laughter.) but he is agreat friend and somebody whose counsel and advice i value.and i’m incredibly grateful to behere at this wonderful institution that hehelped to build
and i’ve come here today becausethis is one of america’s economic engines. not justdreamworks, but this whole cluster of companies thatgenerations have grown up knowing --disney and warner and universal andothers. when you think about it, whatfinance is to newyork, what the auto industry is to the midwest, what technologyis to northern california,entertainment is to this part of the country.
and most of us have spent a lotof time thinking about our favorite movies or tv shows, butwe don’t oftenthink about the entire infrastructure and industry behind the scenes. hundreds ofthousands of middle-class jobs --they’re not always on the marquee -- jobs for electricians, andcarpenters, andsound mi_ers, and makeup artists, and designers, and animators depend onthisincredible industry here in southern california.
entertainment is one of america’sbiggest e_ports. and every day, you sella product that’smade in america to the rest of the world. every time somebody buys movie tickets, ordvds, ordistribution rights to a film, some of that money goes back to thelocal economy right here.
and believe it or not,entertainment is part of our american diplomacy. it’s part of whatmakes us e_ceptional, partof what makes us such a world power. youcan go anywhere on theplanet and you’ll see a kid wearing a “madagascar”t-shirt. (laughter.) you can say, “maytheforce be with you” -- they know what you’re talking about. (laughter.)
hundreds of millions of peoplemay never set foot in the united states, but thanks to you,they’ve e_perienceda small part of what makes our country special. they’ve learned somethingabout our values. we have shaped a world culture through you.
and the stories that we telltransmit values and ideals about tolerance and diversity andovercomingadversity, and creativity that are part of our dna. and as a consequence of whatyou’ve done, youhelped shape the world’s culture in a way that has made the world better.
they might not know thegettysburg address, but if they’re watching some old movie,maybe “guess who’scoming to dinner,” or “the mary tyler moore show,” or “will and grace”and“modern family,” they’ve had a front-row seat to our march towards progress,even if theirown nations haven’t made that progress yet. and young people in countries all around theworldsuddenly make a connection and have an affinity to people who don’t looklike them and maybeoriginally they might have been fearful of, and nowsuddenly they say, oh, this person is likeme -- which is one of the powers ofart, but that’s what you transmit.
and that is a remarkablelegacy. now, it’s also a bigresponsibility. when it comes toissueslike gun violence, we’ve got to make sure that we’re not glorifying it, becausethe storiesyou tell shape our children’s outlook and their lives. earlier this year, leaders from this townsatdown with vice president biden to talk about what hollywood could do to helpkeep our kidssafe. this was in the wakeof sandy hook. and those conversationsneed to continue. the storieswe tellmatter. and you tell stories morepowerfully than anybody else on the earth.
but i want to make clear, even aswe think long and hard about the messages we send, weshould never waver fromour commitment to the freedom that allows us to tell those storiessowell. protecting our first amendmentrights are vital to who we are. and it’salso goodbusiness, because in the global race for jobs and industries, thething we do better thananybody else is creativity. that’s something that can’t be copied. it’s one of the reasons whyeven with newmarkets and new technologies, there’s still no better place to make moviesandtelevision and music than right here in the united states.
entertainment is one of thebright spots of our economy. the gapbetween what we can doand what other countries can do is enormous.
audience member: woo!
the president: yes, that’s worth cheering for. (applause.) and that means that we’vegot todo what it takes to make sure that this industry, and every great americanindustry, keepsthat competitive edge so that more folks can find career pathslike many of you have, and getgood middle-class jobs that allow you to supporta family and get ahead.
nothing is more important thanthat right now. and as mellodymentioned, when i came intooffice, we were going through a severe crisis. five years later, america has largely foughtourway back. we’ve made the toughchoices required not just to help the economy recover, but torebuild it on anew foundation for stronger, more durable economic growth.
we refocused on manufacturing ande_ports, and today, our businesses sell more goods andservices made in thiscountry to the rest of the world than ever before. our manufacturers areadding jobs for thefirst time since the 1990s, led by an american auto industry that’scomeroaring back. american cars are reallygood now. (laughter.)
we decided to reverse ourdependence on foreign oil. so today, wegenerate more renewableenergy than ever -- doubled our renewable energy --more natural gas than anybody. for thefirsttime in nearly 20 years, america now produces more of our own oil than webuy from othercountries. it’s goodnews. (applause.)
when i took office, americainvested far less than countries like china did in wirelessinfrastructure andwe’ve now narrowed that gap, and we have helped companies unleash jobsandinnovation and become a booming app economy that’s created hundreds ofthousands ofjobs. si_ years ago, only 5percent of the world’s smartphones ran on american operatingsystems. today, more than 80 percent do. (applause.)
and, yes, we decided to fi_ abroken health care system. (applause.) and it’s interesting-- iwas talking to some of the studio e_ecs here, and i said, look, therollout of the new health caremarketplace was rough and nobody was morefrustrated about the problems with our websitethan i am. and yet, here in southern california and hereacross this state, there are thousandsof people every single day who are gettinghealth care for the first time -- for the first time --because of this. (applause.) and, by the way, the website is continually working better, socheck itout. (laughter.)
but as a country, we’re nowpoised to gain health coverage for millions of americans,starting on january1st, and that includes more than 350,000 here in california who havealreadysigned up. and thanks in part to theaffordable care act, health care costs are growing atthe slowest rate in 50years. employer-based health care costsare growing at about one-third therate of a decade ago. and that means that if the studios here oryour employers aren’t havingto spend as much on health care, they can hiremore folks and reinvest more in the business,and come up with those cooltechnologies that -- i don’t e_actly understand how they work, but--(laughter) -- were really neat to look at. (laughter.)
and, by the way, we’ve done allthis while bringing down our deficits. (applause.) after yearsoftrillion-dollar deficits, we reined in spending. you would think sometimes listening to folksinwashington that we haven’t made any progress on that front. we wound down two wars. wechanged a ta_ code that was too skewedtowards the wealthiest americans at the e_pense of themiddle class. you add it all up, we’ve cut our deficits bymore than half, and they continue to godown faster than any time since worldwar ii. (applause.)
so all told, our businessescreated 7.8 million new jobs over the past 44 months. americahas gone farther, recovered fasterthan most other industrialized nations. but, as mellody said,we’ve got more work to do. the stock market is doing great, corporateprofits soaring, but toomany americans aren’t sharing in that success. and everybody here who works at dreamworks--a really good place to work. i’m goingto ask jeff if maybe i can work here. (applause.) but allof you havefriends and family and neighbors who aren’t as lucky. and you know there are still alot of folkswho are struggling out there. and my top priority is making sure that thiscountryremains a country where everybody who is willing to work hard can getahead.
and we’d be a lot further alongwithout some of the dysfunction and obstruction we’veseen in washington. (applause.) we would be a lot further along if we could just get folks to actwithsome sense -- (laughter) -- if we didn’t have one wing of one party that was alittle lessobsessed with repealing health care for 40 million people, moreconcerned with making surethe law works. if they hadn’t spent 40 votes trying to repeal the affordable care act,theymight have actually taken some votes on rebuilding our infrastructure, orinstituting earlychildhood education for young people across this country, orinvesting more money in basicresearch that helps to create the amazingtechnologies that many of you utilize. any of theserious proposals i’ve put forward that would be creatingjobs right now, they could have beentaking votes on that.
instead of rooting for failure,or refighting old battles, republicans in congress need to workwith us toimprove those things about the affordable care act that aren’t working as wellas theyshould, and implement policies to strengthen the middle class andcreate jobs. (applause.)
a couple of weeks ago, houserepublican leaders handed out a piece of paper to theirmembers and on the topit said, “agenda 2024.” i’m not makingthis up. below that, it wasblank. (laughter.) it was a blank sheet of paper -- nothing to create jobs or grow theeconomyor strengthen the middle class.
and i’ve put forward my plans tocreate new jobs and even the odds for the middle class.and i’ve put forward plans that gives somerepublicans some of the things that they want ine_change for ideas that willcreate good jobs right now. and so far,they won’t consider them.
some people have heard me say mylist of top five movies -- “the godfather,” one and two,have to be on it. but it turns out marlon brando had it easy,because when it comes to congress,there’s no such thing as an “offer they can’trefuse.” (laughter.) i mean, i just keep on comingback. (laughter.) i’m going to keep on trying, though. (laughter.) i am, because we’vegot nochoice. (applause.)
the american people agree with usthat jobs, growing the economy should be our number-one priority. and we’ve got to make some investments tomake that happen. and we’ve got togivea better bargain to the middle class and everybody who is working to join themiddle class.and that means building onthose cornerstones of what makes for a strong middle class -- goodjobs, a goodeducation, a home of your own, health care when you get sick, a secureretirementeven if you’re not rich. sowe can help manufacturers bring more jobs back to america byinvesting inamerican clean-energy technology, and putting people to work building roadsandbridges and schools and high-speed broadband networks that attract businessesfrom aroundthe world.
we can prepare our children andour workers for the global competition that they’ll face --e_pandinghigh-quality preschool education, redesigning our high schools, investingincommunity colleges and job training, and tackling rising college costs, so thatyoung peoplecan afford it. we can helpresponsible homeowners afford a mortgage or refinancing at today’slow rates,help build a rock-solid housing system for decades to come, instead of boom andbust.
we can bring the promise of asecure retirement back to reach for middle-class families,finding new ways tomake it easier for workers to save, and strengthening social security,andgetting immigration reform done so that undocumented workers are paying theirfair shareof ta_es, but they’re not living in the shadows -- (applause) -- andwe’re attracting the best andthe brightest from all around the world.
as i was getting a tour ofdreamworks, i didn’t ask, but just looking at faces, i could tellthere weresome folks who are here not because they were born here, but because they wanttobe here and they bring e_traordinary talents to the united states. and that’s part of whatmakes americaspecial. and that’s part of what, by theway, makes california special, because it’salways been this magnet of dreamersand strivers. and people coming fromevery directionsaying to themselves, you know, if i work hard there i can havemy piece of the americandream.
we’re going to continue to makeprogress on all those fronts. and, yes,we are going tocontinue to implement the health care law. the product is good. people want it. and we shouldnot live in a country wherepeople are going bankrupt just because they get sick. and anybodywho is going to keep on pushingagainst that, they will meet my resistance, because i amwilling to fi_ anyproblems that there are, but i’m not going to abandon people to make surethatthey’ve got health insurance in this country. that is not something we’re going to do. (applause.) and the good news is,as i said, thousands of californians are already signing up.
i read a really powerful storyover the weekend i just want to mention about uninsured folksin kentucky whoare signing up in droves in one of the poorest counties in the country. some ofthem can’t imagine what having healthinsurance would be like. and you read thesestories andyou realize how important it is for folks in kentucky -- a state,by the way, that did not vote forme -- (laughter) -- and if kentucky can doit, than every state should be able to do it.
we should be able to e_pandmedicaid all across the country. there are millions of peoplewho, right now,even under the law, may not get health care that they deserve becausetheirgovernors have refused to do it just for political reasons -- e_pandingmedicaid. fortunately,california,obviously, is not one of them. but thisis a fight that we’re going to keep fighting,because it’s worth fighting. and that’s what mellody referred to.
it’s true. i’m not an ideological guy, but there aresome things i really believe in. andpart ofwhat i believe in is that the essence of this country, what makes thisplace special, is this ideathat hollywood is glorified and held up, but iactually think it’s true that here, more thananyplace else, no matter what youlook like, where you come from, what your last name is, whoyou love, youshould be able to make it if you’re willing to work hard. that’s what i believe. (applause.)
and there’s certain values thatmake that a reality. i have my critics,obviously, but sincewere here in hollywood, i want to think about somethingthat the late, great chicago film critic,robert [roger] ebert said -- and iwas fortunate to get to know roger ebert and was alwaysinspired by how hehandled some really tough stuff. “kindness,” he wrote, “covers all of mypolitical beliefs.” kindness covers all of my political beliefs.
and when i think about what i’mfighting for, what gets me up every single day, thatcaptures it just about asmuch as anything. kindness; empathy --that sense that i have astake in your success; that i’m going to make sure,just because malia and sasha are doingwell, that’s not enough -- i want yourkids to do well also. and i’m willing tohelp to build goodschools so that they get a great education, even if mine arealready getting a great education.
and i’m going to invest ininfrastructure and building things like the golden gate bridgeand the hooverdam and the internet -- (laughter) -- because i’m investing for thene_tgeneration, not just this one. and that’swhat binds us together, and that’s how we’vealways moved forward, based on theidea that we have a stake in each other’s success. andthat’s what drives me. and that’s what will continue to drive me.
i believe that every kid shouldhave opportunity. i believe ourdaughters should have thesame opportunities as our sons. i believe that jeffrey’s kids should be ableto aspire to whateverthey can dream of, but i also want to make sure that theperson who’s cleaning up jeffrey’soffice, that their kid has that samepossibility.
and we may have different ideasand different policies on how to do things, but thatshouldn’t negate that thatcore vision is what we’re fighting for, and we should be able to sitdowntogether and to keep dreaming and keep working, and to make sure that theamericandream that’s been described here in southern california is sustainedfor generations to come.
and what’s stopping us is notpolicy details; it’s not technical issues. it’s to summon thecourage to put politics aside once in a while and rememberthat we’ve got more in common thanour politics would suggest. and as long as i’ve got the privilege ofserving as your president,that’s what i’m going to keep on making sure that ido -- to put politics aside once in a whileand work on your behalf. (applause.)
so, thank you, dreamworks, forwhat you do. (applause.) thank you, jeffrey, foryourhospitality. god bless you. god bless america. (applause.) can’t wait to see your ne_tmovie. (applause.)

remarks by the president on general motors restructuring
grand foyer
june 1, 2024
just over two months ago, i spoke with you in this same spot about the challenges facing our auto industry, and i laid out what needed to be done to save two of america"s most storied automakers ——general motors and chrysler. these companies were facing a crisis decades in the making, and having relied on loans from the previous administration, were asking for more。
from the beginning, i made it clear that i would not put any more ta_ dollars on the line if it meant perpetuating the bad business decisions that had led these companies to seek help in the first place. i refused to let these companies become permanent wards of the state, kept afloat on an endless supply of ta_payer money. in other words, i refused to kick the can down the road。
but i also recognized the importance of a viable auto industry to the well-being of families and communities across our industrial midwest and across the united states. in the midst of a deep recession and financial crisis, the collapse of these companies would have been devastating for countless americans, and done enormous damage to our economy —— beyond the auto industry. it was also clear that if gm and chrysler remade and retooled themselves for the 21st century, it would be good for american workers, good for american manufacturing, and good for america"s economy。
i decided, then, that if gm and chrysler and their stakeholders were willing to sacrifice for their companies survival and success; if they were willing to take the difficult, but necessary steps to restructure, and make themselves stronger, leaner, and more competitive, then the united states government would stand behind them。
the original restructuring plans submitted by gm and chrysler earlier this year did not call for the sweeping changes these companies needed to survive —— and i couldn"t in good conscience proceed on that basis. so we gave them a chance to develop a stronger plan that would put them on a path toward long-term viability. the 60 days gm had to submit its revised plans have now elapsed, and i want to say a few words about where we are and what steps will be taken going forward. but before i do, i want to give you an update on where things stand with chrysler。
when my administration took office and began going over chrysler"s books, the future of this great american car company was uncertain. in fact, it was not clear whether it had any future at all. but after consulting with my auto task force, industry e_perts, and financial advisors, and after asking many tough questions, i became convinced that if chrysler were willing to undergo a restructuring and if it were able to form a partnership with a viable global car company, then chrysler could get a new lease on life。
well, that more promising scenario has now come to pass. today, after taking a number of painful steps, and moving through a quick, efficient, and fair bankruptcy process, a new, stronger chrysler is poised to complete its alliance with fiat. just 31 days after chrysler"s chapter 11 bankruptcy filing, a court has approved the chrysler-fiat alliance, paving the way for a new chrysler to emerge from bankruptcy in the ne_t few days。
what happens ne_t is in the hands of their e_ecutives, managers, and workers ——as it is for any private company. but what the completion of this alliance means is that tens of thousands of jobs that would have been lost if chrysler had liquidated will now be saved, and that consumers have no reason at all to worry about a restructuring—— even one as painful as what chrysler underwent。
and keep in mind —— many e_perts said that a quick, surgical bankruptcy was impossible. they were wrong. others predicted that chrysler"s decision to enter bankruptcy would lead to an immediate collapse in consumer confidence that would send car sales over a cliff. they were wrong, as well. in fact, chrysler sold more cars in may than it did in april, in part because consumers were comforted by our e_traordinary commitment to stand behind a quick bankruptcy process. all in all, it"s a dramatic —— an outcome dramatically better than what appeared likely when this process began。
美国总统就通用汽车公司重组一事发表演讲
大会堂前厅
2024年6月1日
就在两个多月前，就在此处，我与诸位探讨了美国汽车业所面临的挑战，我列出了拯救美国两大著名汽车制造商——通用汽车公司和克莱斯勒公司所应采取的措施。这两家公司面临着过去几十年中孕育已久的危机，他们依赖往届政府的贷款，现在又要求政府提供更多帮助。
从一开始我就明确表示，我将不会投入更多的税收，否则就意味着将失败的经营决策继续下去，而这种经营决策已经导致上述两家公司首先提出援助要求。我不会任凭这些公司成为国家永久的负担，靠纳税人的源源不断提供血汗钱而生存。换言之，我不会再采用权宜之计了。
但我也承认，在以工业为主的中西部地区乃至全美，一个能独立生存的汽车企业关乎家庭及社会的福祉。在经济严重衰退和金融危机时期，这些公司的倒闭对无数美国人来说无疑是一种灾难，会对全国经济造成巨大影响——且远不止是汽车工业。如果通用汽车公司和克莱斯勒公司能在21世纪自行重组再造，毫无疑问，这将有益于美国的工人、制造业以及美国的整体经济。
因此，我决定，如果通用汽车公司和克莱斯勒公司及其利益相关者愿意为公司的生存和成功作出牺牲，愿意直面困难，通过采取必要的重组措施使公司变得更为强大、精悍、更富竞争力，那么，美国政府就会支持它们。
今年初，通用汽车公司和克莱斯勒公司最初提交的重组计划中并未提出企业生存必需的全面改革计划，因此我不能愧对良心在这种条件下给予支持，我给了它们一个机会——制定一项更强有力的计划，并走上长期保持生存能力的道路。然而，通用汽车公司提交修改计划的60天期限已经过去，我要对我们的现状和未来采取的措施发表看法。但是在这之前，我想讲一下克莱斯勒的最新进展。
本届政府执政后就开始彻查克莱斯勒的账目，发现这个美国汽车业的巨头前途未卜。事实上，它是否还有前途都不得而知。但是经过咨询白宫汽车行动小组、行业专家和财政顾问，并就诸多难题进行探讨后，我开始相信如果克莱斯勒愿意重组，能与一家具备生存能力的全球化汽车企业建立伙伴关系，那么它将会重获新生。
更多充满希望的剧情正在上演。今天，在经历了一系列痛苦的环节以及快速、高效和公平的破产程序后，一个全新且更具实力的克莱斯勒完成了与菲亚特的结盟。仅在克莱斯勒依据《破产法》第11章规定申请破产的31天后，法院批准了克莱斯勒-菲亚特的结盟，为克莱斯勒在未来几年中重塑自我并从破产中崛起铺平了道路。
接下来，公司的命运就掌控在公司的高层、经理和员工的手中了，这和任何其他私营企业并无二致。但结盟的完成意味着因克莱斯勒公司清偿债务会失去的数万个工作岗位，将得以保留，消费者也无须对重组有丝毫担忧，即使这种重组和克莱斯勒所经历的一切同样令人痛苦。
值得关注的是，许多专家曾认为外科手术式的快速破产方式不可行，然而，他们错了。另一些人预计克莱斯勒公司的破产决定将会导致消费者信心会顷刻瓦解，使汽车销量一落千丈，他们也错了。事实上，克莱斯勒公司5月的销售业绩要好于4月，部分原因是由于我们对快速破产程序做出了特别承诺，安抚了消费者。总而言之，与程序启动时相比，效果极为明显。
