“Business is war.” The traditional language of business
certainly makes it sound that way: winning the competition,
getting market share, beating up suppliers, locking up
customers. There are the victors and the losers.
But today in doing business, you have to listen to
stomers, work with suppliers, keep good relations-even with
competitors. That doesn’t sound like war. Besides, there are
few victors when business is looked upon as war. Most businesses succeed only if others also succeed.
Business is competition and cooperation as well. In other
words, business is war and peace.
To bring together competition and cooperation, we turn
to game theory. Game theory provides that whether one
person wins or loses depends on what other people do. It is
particularly effective when there are many
interdependent(相互侕å˜çš„)factors and no
decision can be made in isolation(å¤ç«‹ï¼‰from other
decisions.
Game theory breaks down the game into key
elementsï¼ˆè¦•ç´ ï¼‰:players, added values, rules,
tactics(计谋), and
scope(范围)(PARTS).Every element affects the
result of the game. This means that each of the five elements
gives you a way to change an existing game into entirely
new one. Change one of the PARTS, and you change the
whole.
Why change the game? An old Chinese saying explains:
If you continue on the course you’re heading, that’s where
you’ll end up. Sometimes that’s good, sometimes not. You
can play the game very well, and still suffer great loss.
That’s because you’re playing the wrong game: you need to
change it. Even a good game can be made into a better one.
Real success comes from actively shaping the game you
play-from making the game you want, not taking the game
you find.

What is an insect? Insects of all kinds have existed on
earth for millions of years. Sometimes we think of all
insects as pests. Human life, however, would have a difficult time continuing without insects, because they pollinate
plants and are a food source for many animals. Besides,
insects, especially the social ones, are fascinating.
One very interesting and useful social insect is the honey
bee. Bees are considered social insects because they live
and work together. They cooperate and communicate in
order to survive. The bee lives in a beehive (蜂窕) with
other worker bees, and with the queen, who can
lay thousands of eggs a day. The worker bees make wax
used to create new cells inside the hive. Humans use this
valuable beeswax in candles, cosmetics, expensive furniture
polish, and other products. They also produce honey, a
valuable food for humans (as well as for bees).
Another fascinating social insect is the ant. Many types
of ants live in colonies underground. There thousands of
them build and maintain their "city." They keep it clean and
