联想的AI转型之路也许并不好走。 22日，联想发布了最新的第三财季业绩。前三季度联想营收430亿美元，同比下降12.74%，经营利润10.72亿美元，同比下降46.8%。 这份三季度财报并不亮眼。 不过，市场的反应很有意思，22日发布的财报，23日联想港股一度跌3.9%，到了26日，股价又一度涨超4%…… 看得出来，市场在纠结。 纠结的点在于，虽然联想全年营收盈利都在下滑，但单季度表现还可以，第三季度纯利3.37亿美元同比增长35%。 对于市场的反复，摩根大通给出自己的判断：考虑到同业会降低其盈利预测，（联想）短期股价还是很坚挺的。 翻译一下就是，年度同比虽然比较差，但由于同行盈利预测给得低了，所以还是回调的空间的。不过这个回调的空间有多大，还需观察。 对于这份三季度业绩，瑞银、摩根大通的研报都认为，联想季度盈利的改善并不会改变未来的盈利预期。 瑞银方面，将今年3月底止第四财季预测下调30%，维持沽售评级，并维持目标价7.5港元；摩根大通则认为，联想短期盈利仍然承压，并调整目标价由 10.3港元至10港元。 为何投行对于联想的盈利预测总带有一丝悲观？杨元庆为联想定调转型AI能不能在业务兑现？ 这些问题，值得深 ...

在地上画一个圈，猫咪会自己跳进去；给不羁男孩一双大黄靴，这双靴子就会成为他的冬季皮肤。 女孩们的靴子多种多样，但男孩们心中的靴子只有大黄靴。 这一点绝不是我瞎说，如果你在小红书或是一线城市的地铁里，做过人类学观察，就会发现大黄靴在冬天的出镜率，就好比2017年的椰子，下 楼倒个垃圾，碰见的十个人都得有八双。 提起大黄靴，大家自然会联想起 "Timberland - 踢不烂"的经典产品。但在商业社会发达的今天，人们早就有了一黄各表的能力，拥有了除此之 外更多的消费选择。 正因此，大黄靴风尚恰恰是最有趣的现象，纵使人类在靴子设计上早就无数次的突破自我，给予了这个商品五颜六色，但男孩们最中意的，也 是最常见的，仍然是： 黄色的靴子。 2023-12-12 1.大黄靴的兴盛 如果说，膜拜于神祇之下的教众因忠诚自成一派宗教，那人们对大黄靴的狂热追逐，*算得上一种宗教。 但这种追逐也引来他者的嘲讽。 在跟风成为原罪的网络社区里，人们认为那些跳入大黄靴狂潮、昏头购入热门款式的人，不过是被情怀和消费主义洗脑过度，交着最重的智商 税，享受最痛的磨脚体验。 不仅如此，黄靴过分亮眼的颜色对有的人来说，还得专门思考如何搭配实在太过费 ...
