"Steve Jobs" reflects the audience's stereotype of the biopic "From Life to Death", and selects three important nodes in Jobs's life, and the film is structured into a three-act drama: Macintosh released in 1984, 1988 NeXT Computer was released and iMac G3 was released in 1998. It unfolds with a fierce dialogue, outlines the image of Jobs from a private perspective, and uses flashbacks and digressions to insert Jobs's life and career trajectory. It seems that the structure is quite limited, and there seems to be a sense of rigid stage play, lacking fluency, but makes Sorkin's dialogue even more exaggerated and dramatic (
). Behind the magnificent focus of the film, there are endless quarrels, tears, games, betrayals, and coldness in the audience, and the famous and glamorous brainwashing speech scenes of Jobs did not appear once. Obviously, this version is not a Steve Jobs biography for "fruit fans" or geeks. It is more like a microcosm of the times reflected by the conflicts in the life of a genius (
).

Steve Wozniak: What do you do? You're not an engineer. You're not a designer. You can't put a hammer to a nail. I built the circuit board! The graphical interface was stolen! So how come ten times in a day I read Steve Jobs is a genius? What do you do?
Steve Jobs: Musicians play their instruments. I play the orchestra.
