But today in doing business， you have to listen to stomers， work with suppliers， keep good relations-even with competitors. That doesn‘t sound like war. Besides， there are few victors when business is looked upon as war.

　　Most businesses succeed only if others also succeed. Business is competition and cooperation as well. In other words， business is war and peace.

　　To bring together competition and cooperation， we turn to game theory. Game theory provides that whether one person wins or loses depends on what other people do. It is particularly effective when there are many interdependent factors and no decision can be made in isolation(孤立)from other decisions.

　　Game theory breaks down the game into key elements(要素)：players， added values， rules， tactics， and scope(范围)(PARTS)。Every element affects the result of the game. This means that each of the five elements gives you a way to change an existing game into entirely new one. Change one of the PARTS， and you change the whole.

　　Why change the game? An old Chinese saying explains： If you continue on the course you‘re heading， that’s where you‘ll end up. Sometimes that’s good， sometimes not. You can play the game very well， and still suffer great loss. That‘s because you’re playing the wrong game： you need to change it. Even a good game can be made into a better one. Real success comes from actively shaping the game you play-from making the game you want， not taking the game you find.
