So I became very err.... captivated by computer.

我完全给计算机迷住了

And a computer to me was still a little mysterious

当然计算机对我而言仍然有些神秘

cause it's at the other end of wire,I had never really seen the actual computer itself.

因为真正的计算机藏在电缆的另一端，而我从未见过

I think I got towards computers after that, saw the inside,

打那以后我总想着计算机

and then I was part of this school byHewlett-Packard.

后来我在惠普附近的学校读书

When I was 12, I called up Bill Hewlett who lived in Hewlett-Packard at the time.

12岁时我打电话给Bill Hewlett，他当时住在惠普

And again it dazed me...

又是一次奇妙的经历

But there was no such thing as unlistedtelephone number then,

当时所有的电话号码都印在号码簿里

so I can just look into the book and look his name up.

只要翻电话号码簿，就能查到他的电话

And he answered the phone, and I saidHi, My name is Steve Jobs.

他接了电话，我说我叫Steve Jobs

You don't know me, but I'm 12 years old, and I'm building a frequency counter, and I'd like some spare parts.

你不认识我，我12岁，打算做频率计数器，需要些零件

And so he talked to me for about 20 minutes,

我们聊了大概20分钟

I will never forget as long as I live, he gave me the parts, but he also gave me a job working in Hewlett-Packard that summer.

我永远记得他不但给了零件，还邀请我夏天去惠普打工

And I was 12 years old, and that really made a remarkable influence on me.

我才12岁，这件事对我产生了不可思议的影响

Hewlett-Packardwas really the only company I'd ever seen in my life at that age.

惠普是我见过的第一家公司

And it forms my view of what a company was and how well they treated their employees.

它让我懂得了什么是公司，如何善待员工

You know, at that time, I mean they didn't know about cholesterol back then.

那时还没有胆固醇偏高一说

And then at that time they used to bring a big car full of donuts and coffee out at 10 o'clock every morning,

每天上午十点公司拖来满满一卡车的甜面圈和咖啡

and everyone take a coffee and have a donut break, just little things like that.

大家停下工作喝杯咖啡，品尝甜面圈

It was clear that the company recognized its true values was its employees.

很明显惠普明白公司真正的价值在于员工
