What a great way to start. First of all, I’ve been watching this trend where we have these books like such and such “For Dummies.” Do you know these books, these such and such “For Dummies?” My daughters pointed out that I’m very similar looking, so this is a bit of a problem. (Laughter) But I was looking online at A for other books like this. You know, there’s also something called the “Complete Idiot’s Guide?” There’s a sort of business model around being stupid in some sense. We like to have technology make us feel bad, for some strange reason. 简单，多么棒的开场! 首先，我一直都在关注这个趋势 市面上不也有很多像是”傻瓜也会...”的这类书吗? 你知道这类书吗?教你一学就上手的指南 我女儿说我长得很像这书中的傻瓜，听起来不太妙... (笑声) 我也在亚马逊的网站上搜寻这样的书 你知道吗?甚至还有”白痴大全”呢? 似乎有些商业模式本身就蛮愚蠢的 而不知什么原因，我们也喜欢拥有让自己感觉很糟的科技 But I really like that, so I wrote a book called “The Laws of Simplicity.” I was in Milan last week, for the Italian launch. It’s kind of a book about questions, questions about simplicity. Very few answers. I’m also wondering myself, what is simplicity? Is it good? Is it bad? Is complexity better? I’m not sure. 我也喜欢，所以我写了一本书叫做”简单的法则” 为了这本新书在意大利上市，上周我到米兰 这本书提了很多问题，都是关于简单 但是答案很少。我也常问自己，到底简单是什么? 简单是好事?是坏事?复杂点会不会更好?我不知道 After I wrote “The Laws of Simplicity,” I was very tired of simplicity, as you can imagine. And so in my life, I’ve discovered that vacation is the most important skill for any kind of over-achiever. Because your companies will always take away your life, but they can never take away your vacation -- in theory. (Laughter) 但当我写完这本”简单的法则”时 不难想象，我对这二个字有多厌惓 同时，我也发现 好好渡个假对于工作狂来说绝对是最重要的技能 因为工作总是占用你的生活 但绝无法夺走你的假期....理论上来说 (笑声) So, I went to the Cape last summer to hide from simplicity, and I went to the Gap, because I only have black pants.
