????1. 你最崇拜的商界或科技界人物是哪位？為什么,？

????我腦海里首先想到的一家公司是亞馬遜（Amazon）,。據(jù)我了解，這家公司是真正將客戶放在第一位,。他們希望打造一家重視客戶價(jià)值的公司,，而且他們并沒(méi)有巨大的利潤(rùn)。他們每一次通過(guò)完善服務(wù)降低成本之后,，都會(huì)把所產(chǎn)生的價(jià)值回饋給客戶,。他們?cè)诓粩嗵嵘答伣o客戶的價(jià)值。

????這讓我產(chǎn)生了很大的共鳴,。只有這樣才能打造出真正迷人的體驗(yàn),，吸引海量的客戶,。創(chuàng)業(yè)的目的不應(yīng)該為了迅速賺錢，而是要打造一家可持續(xù)的公司,，讓所有客戶高興,，同時(shí)提供真正的價(jià)值。只要這樣做,，最終你的公司同樣會(huì)賺很多錢,。但重中之重是客戶，是為他們提供最大的價(jià)值,。當(dāng)然,，杰夫?貝佐斯的同事也支持公司的愿景?？稍诋?dāng)初,，許多人都對(duì)此深感懷疑，甚至冷眼相對(duì),。但貝佐斯最終取得勝利,，成功建立了一家神奇的公司。這很了不起,。

????2. 最讓你興奮的科技行業(yè)是什么,？

????如果我說(shuō)是3D打印，你肯定不會(huì)感到意外,。3D打印將完全顛覆我們考慮產(chǎn)品的方式,。早在19世紀(jì)之前，產(chǎn)品都是純手工制作,。之后的工業(yè)革命帶來(lái)了大規(guī)模生產(chǎn),。我們可以獲得許多很了不起的產(chǎn)品，但它們?nèi)记宦?。?D打印為大規(guī)模生產(chǎn)所帶來(lái)的是,，每個(gè)人都有能力制造出他們自己想要的產(chǎn)品，而不僅僅是商家提供的產(chǎn)品,。

????我認(rèn)為,，這是非常有吸引力的一個(gè)概念。理解這個(gè)概念需要一段時(shí)間,，因?yàn)槲磥?lái)將不再是大公司決定大家想要什么，確定最能迎合大眾口味的產(chǎn)品,，然后進(jìn)行大規(guī)模生產(chǎn),。想要什么樣的產(chǎn)品，決定權(quán)在于消費(fèi)者,。我們的工作是讓所有人能夠更方便地表達(dá)自己想要的東西,，然后我們以合理的價(jià)格為他們生產(chǎn)出來(lái),。就這么簡(jiǎn)單。大家不用再被迫購(gòu)買某件東西,，而是可以決定自己想要的產(chǎn)品,。比如一件衣服，一套首飾,，或一些小配件,。3D打印給人們帶來(lái)的是真正影響產(chǎn)品的能力。

????Peter Weijmarshausen grew up in the Netherlands. Even as a child he had an entrepreneurial spirit, and he always found ways to make money, building businesses such as a car washing service and lawn care for neighbors.

????He loved coding and started playing with computers at a young age. When he went to study at the Technical University of Eindhoven, he studied applied physics and kept up his interest in computers. After the Internet emerged in the 1990s, Weijmarshausen began to join startup companies, fueled by his passion for open source software. That was especially true for 3-D modeling and, eventually, 3-D printing. "With 3-D printing, your imagination is your only limitation," Weijmarshausen said.

????He and his fellow co-founders began to build Shapeways -- an online 3-D printing marketplace -- in March 2007. People can make, buy, and sell 3-D printed products through the site, and Weijmarshausen's goal is to make it easy for people to create unique products. Weijmarshausen, 42, is based in New York. He spoke with Fortune.

????1. What business or technology person do you admire most? Why?

????One of the companies that jumps out at me is Amazon (AMZN). From what I can tell, they really put their customers in the center. They want to make a company that values their customers, and they don't have huge margins. What they do every time they have an improvement in their service that reduces their cost, they give all of that value back to their customers. They give the customer an ever-better value for their money.

????That resonates well with me. That's how you can build a truly magnificent experience that is compelling for an enormous amount of people. It's not about making a few dollars quickly. It's about building a sustainable business that makes all of its customers happy and provides true value. If you do that, then, in the end, as a business you're also making money, lots of money. But it's first and foremost about the customer and getting them the most value. And of course the people that work with Jeff Bezos are supporting that vision. And in the beginning, a lot of people were very skeptical or cynical about it. But he's prevailed, and he's built an amazing company. That's quite something.

????2. What technology sector excites you most?

????It probably won't surprise you that I'll say 3-D printing. It has the ability to truly disrupt the way we think about products. Way back in the 1800s and before, products were made by hand. And then came along the industrial revolution where we had mass manufacturing. Mass manufacturing has given us a lot of really cool products, but they're all the same. What 3-D printing brings on top of mass manufacturing is the ability for the individual to get the exact product that they want and not just what is available.

????To me, that is such a compelling concept. It takes a while to really grasp because it's no longer big corporations that figure out what you might want by deciding what is the lowest common denominator and mass-producing it. No -- it's you who has an idea for what you want. Our job is to make it easy for you to express what you want, and then we'll make it for you at a reasonable price. Isn't that what it's all about? Not that you get pushed into buying certain things, but that you can decide what you want. Whether it's clothing or jewelry or gadgets, it doesn't really matter. The ability to truly influence the products that you get, that's the power that 3-D printing brings.

????3. Is business school necessary for entrepreneurs?

????I didn't go to business school, and I think I'm a pretty good entrepreneur. I see a lot of entrepreneurs who didn't go to business school. I think maybe you aren't born an entrepreneur, but it's something that you start acting on early in life. Even as early as before 10 years old, it's like this freedom that people feel. Why would I get a job if I can start doing things in a smart way? I always found projects or opportunities to make money instead of jobs. It's a way of thinking that at some point you have to get, then you get better at it. As a company like Shapeways becomes bigger and bigger, you have to learn a few things. Like how do you advance and expand into marketing. Software engineering was already in my blood, and I studied applied physics, so I understood the technology really well. Business school can help you get the framework and context even better, but if you're open to learning, you can do it perfectly well without business school.
