“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
