Features: Xerox, one of the greatest inventions of the 20th century, rose to prominence with its electrostatic copying technology. Its legendary rise to success is told like a myth to generations in the United States. In the early 20th century, Xerox was just a small company in a town in northeastern America. Since 1962, Xerox has entered the Fortune Global 500 list and become a giant in the copier industry. However, today, Xerox is facing crises and difficulties, continuously laying off employees to cut costs——《Beijing Youth Weekly》 recommends this book introduces the development history of Xerox, its decision-making performance at several historical turning points, especially the performance of its CEOs, as well as the copier culture that has accumulated over half a century. It also introduces the unprecedented crises and challenges Xerox faced in the last year of the 20th century, as well as the forced "change of flags" of Xerox China, and the unique corporate management and culture of Chinese Xerox under the management of Xerox.
