Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

profit-above-pursuit scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 12d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

"利润之上的追求"企业诊断

R — 原文 (Reading)

"利润之上的追求指的是把消费者需求放在公司短期利益前面。多数公司碰到问题时讨论的都是有没有钱赚的问题,而有利润之上追求的公司碰到问题时可能会先问一句,这是对的事情吗?这是应该赚的钱吗?其实差别很小,但20年后差别很大。"

— 段永平, 第1节

"所谓'好公司'我觉得应该是有原则的公司,不是单纯利润导向的公司。"

— 段永平, 第1节


I — 方法论骨架 (Interpretation)

"利润之上的追求"是一个用来诊断企业根本驱动力的工具。

核心诊断信号:面对商业决策时,公司先问什么?

  • 先问"赚不赚钱" → 利润导向 → 短期可能成功但长期容易被诱惑带偏
  • 先问"这对不对""这是该赚的钱吗" → 利润之上追求 → 长期更可能成为伟大公司

关键理解

  • 这不是慈善——利润之上的追求反而带来更多利润("利润不过是水到渠成的结果")
  • 这不是充分条件——有追求不一定是好企业,但"时间越长差别越大"
  • 这是一个过滤器——不是精确评分,而是"有或没有"的二元判断

具体表现

  • 有利润之上追求的公司:碰到问题先问"这是对的事情吗"
  • 苹果为盲人做无障碍功能不计ROI——这就是利润之上的追求
  • 动力来自产品而不是利润——"这种差别很微妙,但它会影响每一件事:你聘用谁、提拔谁、会议上讨论什么事情"

A1 — 书中的应用 (Past Application)

案例 1: 苹果——利润之上追求的极致

  • 问题: 为什么苹果是伟大公司?
  • 方法论的使用: 乔布斯说"动力来自产品而不是利润"——苹果做无障碍功能不计ROI,做环保不计短期收益
  • 结论: 苹果有利润之上的追求 → 成为伟大公司
  • 结果: 苹果成为全球市值最高公司之一

案例 2: 索尼——失去利润之上追求的后果

  • 问题: 索尼为什么从伟大变平庸?
  • 方法论的使用: 索尼从产品导向变成利润导向——质量下降(不合格的DVD机芯、明知有问题的跳舞毯)
  • 结论: 当"有没有钱赚"盖过了"这对不对",衰败就开始了
  • 结果: 索尼从行业标杆变成普通公司

案例 3: 步步高——利润之上追求在日常中的体现

  • 问题: 步步高的"三不赚原则"怎么来的?
  • 方法论的使用: 违法的钱不赚、有违道德的钱不赚、超过自己能力的钱不赚——每一条都是在问"这对不对"而非"赚不赚"
  • 结论: 这就是利润之上追求的操作化
  • 结果: 步步高体系下的公司(OPPO/vivo)都长期健康发展

A2 — 触发场景 (Future Trigger) ★

用户会在什么情境下需要这个 skill?

  1. 用户在分析一家公司为什么能长期成功或为什么突然衰败
  2. 用户在自己公司面临"赚钱但不那么对"的决策
  3. 用户在评估是否投资/加入一家公司,想判断其根本驱动力
  4. 用户在思考"企业应该以什么为第一目标"
  5. 用户在讨论企业文化/价值观的重要性

语言信号 (用户的话里出现这些就应激活)

  • "为什么XX公司能基业长青"
  • "利润和理想怎么选"
  • "公司应该追求什么"
  • "为什么有的公司短期好长期不行"
  • "企业文化为什么重要"
  • "怎么判断一家公司是不是真的为用户着想"

与相邻 skill 的区分

  • culture-judger 的区别: culture-judger 是全面的文化诊断(四维度),本 skill 聚焦一个具体的诊断信号(先问对不对还是先问赚不赚)——更精准但更窄
  • right-things-first 的区别: right-things-first 是通用的方向判断框架,本 skill 是其在商业价值观层面的具体应用——"做对的事情"在商业中体现为"利润之上"

E — 可执行步骤 (Execution)

  1. 收集决策案例

    • 完成标准: 找到该公司3-5个重大商业决策,看每个决策的讨论过程和最终理由
    • 关键信号: 决策时先讨论什么——"能不能赚钱"还是"这是对的事情吗"
  2. 诊断驱动力

    • 完成标准: 判断该公司是"利润导向"还是"利润之上追求"
    • 注意: 不是看宣传说什么,而是看面对利益冲突时实际怎么选
  3. 时间放大器评估

    • 完成标准: 想象10-20年后——如果保持现有驱动力,这家公司会怎样?
    • 段永平的洞见: "差别很小,但20年后差别很大"
