2015年:贝索斯致股东信《全世界对失败最宽容的公司》
A company should have a long-term-oriented mindset, not a short-term-oriented mindset.
I think we have a unique culture at Amazon that encourages both risk-taking and long-term thinking.
If you're long-term oriented, customer interests and shareholder interests are aligned.
We've done price elasticity studies, and the answer is always that we should raise prices. We don't do that, because we believe -- and we have to take this as an article of faith -- that by keeping our prices very, very low, we earn trust with customers over time, and that that actually does maximize free cash flow over the long term.
