Since joining Nokia in 2010, Mr. Elop has taken commercial flights between Helsinki and Seattle. He essentially lived out of a suitcase to balance the demands of turning around a crumbling business and raising teenage daughters whom he didn't want to uproot。

2010年加入諾基亞以來，埃洛普便乘坐商業(yè)航班往返于赫爾辛基和西雅圖之間。工作上，他要讓一個瀕臨崩潰的公司實現(xiàn)華麗轉(zhuǎn)身;家庭生活中，他要撫養(yǎng)十幾歲的女兒，又不愿讓她們遷居別處。為了平衡這兩方面的需求，埃洛普基本上是拎著手提箱來回奔波。

Mr. Elop isn't a stranger to tough decisions. He made waves almost immediately after starting at Nokia. He set to work on a plan that would lead to tens of thousands of job cuts and a downsizing of Nokia's treasured research and development department. He sold key assets, including the seaside headquarters near Helsinki and closed the last remaining handset factory in Finland。

對于做艱難的決定，埃洛普可謂駕輕就熟。在諾基亞上任后，他立即開始“大動干戈”。先是著手制定計劃，準(zhǔn)備裁員數(shù)萬人，精簡備受諾基亞重視的研發(fā)部門，而后賣掉了赫爾辛基附近臨?？偛看髽堑汝P(guān)鍵資產(chǎn)，并且關(guān)閉了該公司位于芬蘭的最后一個手機工廠。

He also changed the focus. Earlier this year, after an extensive rebuild of the Nokia Siemens Networks wireless division, Mr. Elop paid about $2.2 billion to buy out Siemens AG. Nokia now looks a lot like Sweden's Ericsson, which exited handset manufacturing a couple of years ago and is now making big profits selling infrastructure。

此外，埃洛普還改變了諾基亞的關(guān)注焦點。今年早些時候，在諾基亞西門子通信公司(Nokia Siemens Networks)無線業(yè)務(wù)經(jīng)歷了一番重建后，埃洛普支付了約22億美元收購西門子公司(Siemens AG)在該合資公司中的股份。諾基亞現(xiàn)在看上去與瑞典的愛立信(Ericsson)十分相似，后者在幾年前退出了手機生產(chǎn)業(yè)務(wù)，目前正通過出售基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施賺取巨額利潤。
