The three items signed by Jobs in RR auction include a resume, an iPhone 3G newspaper and a Mac OS X manual. This application letter was written in 1973, with some spelling and punctuation errors. Before the auction, it is expected to be sold at a price of 50,000 US dollars, and finally it will be sold at a price of174,000 US dollars which is three times higher than the expected price.
First of all, for Jobs, we should not regard Jobs as a product manager. A real product manager should be as obscure as Luo Yonghao or Lei Jun. Although he used to be high-profile, he mostly kept a low profile, but Jobs was different. Jobs has become a legend, a great god in design and a mythical figure.
The signed Mac OS X manual costs $465,438+0,806, while the iPhone newspaper costs $26,950. Together, these three projects sold nearly $450 thousand.
Secondly, for a mythical figure like Jobs, many people have a fetish. Everything Jobs said was right, every instruction Jobs made was right, and every decision Jobs made on the iPhone was right, so Jobs' resume is certainly eye-catching.
In a word, Jobs' resume was shot at a sky-high price because the mythical Jobs already had a large group of fans who regarded Jobs as a god.
