維珍老闆稱做生意就像畫畫

"There is no point in going into a business unless you can make a radical difference in other people's lives. To me, it's like painting a picture: You have to get all the little nuances right to create the perfect picture, or the perfect company."
“要想做好生意，就要能想辦法對別人的生活進行徹底的改變。對我而言，做生意就像畫畫，在創造出完美的作品之前，你必須打點好一切瑣事。做生意開公司也是一樣。”

Artists have a way with the canvas: They find the inspiration, envision the picture before they put the brush to the canvas, prepare the tools, and finally get to work.
藝術家自有自己的一套方法：他們先尋找靈感，在動筆之前先構思出整幅畫作，再準備繪圖工具，最後纔開始作畫。

They take their time with each brush stroke, ensuring that the end result is as close to perfection as possible. According to Branson, entrepreneurs should approach business with the same delicacy.
畫家們每畫一筆都要力爭完美。維珍老闆布蘭森表示，企業家也要用類似於作畫的精益求精的態度來做生意。

"So I'll throw all the paint up and get all the best people in. By the time it sticks on the canvas, we'll try to start getting some order into it. Every little single detail has to be right."
“所以我會招賢納才，同時專注於作畫。把每件事都處理得井井有條，每一個小細節都精益求精。”
