Have you heard this saying—competition is for losers? This is Peter Thiel's most thought-provoking point in "Zero to One."

The core logic is actually quite sobering: most project teams are fighting each other in the red ocean, splitting profits into tiny pieces, which is a zero-sum game from 1 to N. But the truly profitable approach is exactly the opposite—relying on technological innovation to find opportunities overlooked by everyone, then establishing an advantage through creative monopolies. This is the essence of going from 0 to 1.

How to do it? The methodology outlined in the book is surprisingly simple: first, dominate a small, insignificant market and become the undisputed leader in that field, then gradually expand outward from this fortress. It may sound insignificant, but in any highly competitive track, this strategy is like a cheat card.
