When fast-fashion competitors like Zara started replenishing their stocks faster
當(dāng)像Zara等“快速時(shí)尚”競(jìng)爭(zhēng)者加快存貨周轉(zhuǎn)率，
from two collections a year to one collection a month,
從一年兩個(gè)時(shí)裝系列提高到一個(gè)月一個(gè)時(shí)裝系列，
none of them have been able to keep up with the pace.
傳統(tǒng)的服裝企業(yè)就都跟不上其節(jié)奏了。
Most of them are in great difficulties today.
它們中的絕大多數(shù)如今都陷入了危機(jī)。
Yet, with all of their shortcomings, those are the factories we know today.
但是，盡管有這些缺點(diǎn)，這些企業(yè)都依然很知名。
When you open the doors, they look the same as they did 50 years ago.
當(dāng)你打開門出去看看時(shí)，你會(huì)發(fā)現(xiàn)這些工廠和50年前一模一樣。
We've just changed the location, the size, the way they operate.
我們僅僅變換了工廠的位置、大小和運(yùn)作方式。
Can you name anything else that looks the same as it did 50 years ago?
你們還能列舉出任何五十年沒有改變的例子嗎？
It's crazy. We've made all the tweaks to the model that we could, and now we hit its limits.
這太難以置信了。我們已盡我們所能對(duì)該模型進(jìn)行調(diào)整，但目前已經(jīng)達(dá)到了極限。
After all of our attempts to fix the manufacturing model failed, we thought growth could come from elsewhere.
在對(duì)修補(bǔ)工業(yè)模型做出的全部嘗試都失敗后，我們猜測(cè)經(jīng)濟(jì)增長(zhǎng)或許可以來自其他領(lǐng)域。
We turned to the tech sector -- there's been quite a lot of innovations there.
我們轉(zhuǎn)向科技行業(yè)--那里有相當(dāng)多的創(chuàng)新活動(dòng)。
Just to name one: the Internet. We hoped it could produce growth.
舉一個(gè)例子：因特網(wǎng)。我們希望網(wǎng)絡(luò)能夠帶來增長(zhǎng)。
And indeed, it changed our lives.
事實(shí)上，它改變了我們的生活。
It made big waves in the media, the service, the entertainment spaces.
它對(duì)傳媒業(yè)、服務(wù)業(yè)和娛樂產(chǎn)業(yè)都帶來了極大影響。
But it hasn't done much for productivity.
但是它并未對(duì)生產(chǎn)力帶來多大改變。
Actually, what's surprising is that productivity is on the decline despite all of those innovation efforts.
實(shí)際上，令人驚訝的是，盡管有這么多的創(chuàng)新的嘗試，生產(chǎn)力卻一直在下降。
Imagine that -- sitting at work, scrolling through Facebook,
想象一下——上班的時(shí)候，刷刷Facebook，
watching videos on YouTube has made us less productive. Weird.
在YouTube上看看視頻，這都讓我們的生產(chǎn)效率降低了。很奇怪吧。
