Ender's Game vs. Management

I don't usually write movie reviews, but this time I took a bubble.

I haven't read the original novel, but I watched the movie directly. The biggest impression is the inspiration or resonance it gave me about team management (although I am still a grass and a frog at the bottom of a well).

One of the scenes is a team competition game in a battleship, and the rules of the game announced by the old leader are eye-catching! Each group gets points according to the number and degree of attack, but scoring a hole is the final sign of victory, no matter how many points you beat others before. This is actually very similar to the competition in the real enterprise market. No matter how brilliant you are in front of you, your scale is bigger than your rivals, your platform is better than your rivals, your systems are better than your rivals, your personnel are better than your rivals, you have won more awards than your rivals... these They are all floating clouds. To get the first place, it is the only way to speak with market share.

Another impressive scene is Rodman's first coaching session when he was elected captain. He starts by specifying his principles very clearly, pointing out what can be done and what is not allowed, very similar to part of a kick-off meeting in project management, or work conventions in agile development. Life and management are the same. If you don't state your own or the entire team's position and principles in advance, you will have endless troubles. You don't know how much paper to wipe your ass, and then you will really become a firefighter. This can also improve cohesion, build a team culture, and have the same goals. How to say that the ideas and theories of Grandpa Mao and Grandpa Deng have continued to be far-reaching and have been popular for generations, right?

    Let’s copy the evaluation of oblivion, “It’s an unexpected joy to be able to watch a 2D original sci-fi movie with a bright upper part these days.”

    The sound of the giant-screen cinema in the museum is rarely so powerful, and it is really all kinds of tremors; just, is the protagonist's halo serious enough to break the table? In addition, the story, visual effects, etc. are a bit familiar: zero gravity has the ultimate "Gravity"; the space star battle scene seems to have been seen in "Star Trek"; and the armor equipment is obviously "Iron Man". That set is cooler; ...; but what does that matter? Because this movie is really good.

Ender's Game quotes

  • Behari, teacher: Now, the problem was simple: How do you slingshot your forces into an attack position on the blind side of this planet using the the gravitational pull from this planet? This is basic rocket science!

  • Bean: "Ender"... What kind of name is that?
