Features: Shih Chen-Rong is the "father" of Taiwan's IT industry—without him, there would be no Taiwan IT industry. He built a computer dynasty in 28 years, representing the complete journey of Taiwanese young people chasing their dreams. He believes in "human nature is inherently good" and blends Westernized corporate structures with traditional Chinese culture, standing out among Chinese enterprises. He emphasizes planning and holistic thinking, understands "sharing," and is willing to relinquish power, implementing decentralized management. "Go" means "chess," and a company is always a living game—business strategy is the same as chess strategy. Shih Chen-Rong believes: Only by being different can one compete. Therefore, he loves creating something from nothing and enjoys innovation. Shih Chen-Rong has always walked a unique path, constantly innovating paradigms and establishing new models. Under his leadership, the ABW family each carved out their own space, transformed, and showcased a new image. This book is one of Shih Chen-Rong's important offerings before his retirement. Following Rebuilding Acer, Shih Chen-Rong shares his story once again, revealing the process of the second rebuilding of Acer Group and the management wisdom accumulated from his 33 years in the industry, completely and unreservedly with readers.
