No, it is saying that you can never win the game of differentiation. You need to focus on new marketing and new segments that competitors have ignored. Therefore, it's called the "blue" ocean.

They didn't join red ocean. The "Apple way" has mostly been carving out their new market, offering values not seen elsewhere. Even when they join "established market", like when they make AirTags, they have ridiculous advantage that their competitors can't compete with because they integrate their devices. When Apple is competing in laptop, they are also in a Blue Ocean because their machine run a completely different operating system and have softwares that can't be accessed on the other side of the ocean.

The Blue Ocean strategy. Could be easily explained in terms that make sense. You can pursue a sales strategy which is cost intensive. For example: retail if you create a products and assertion to be in stores and fight over store shelf space. The five forces really come in to play with Red Ocean strategy. Developing doesn't frown on sales it's more about insights of what order things should be done. If you compete the exact way your top 3-5 competitors do. I think not the best strategy generally. Very complexed to describe rationale. Each business the discussion and rationale is at least slightly different. Blue Ocean are great packed with R&D, emerging markets, and differentiation. Do you agree?
This is compelling writing. A comparable book I read had a transformative effect on me. "The Art of Saying No: Mastering Boundaries for a Fulfilling Life" by Samuel Dawn
Blue ocean strategy means do what others are not doing or cannot do. As a new company , you can give many offers that can disrupt the marketplace seeking consumers attention.
So in other words; instead of joining an existing market and competing with other existing companies - you venture into a new market with no existing competitors? ….or how would you put it simply?

2023 May 17 - HBR youtube- The explainer channel: Blue Ocean Strategy (Tracer: Comment Part 1 by Emmanuel Matuco started on the HBR youtube The Explainer: Solving Problems Using The Worst Idea Possible) (continuation of Comment Part2 in the above video channel, with that comment treated as Part2A) CommentPart2B In the closing pages of the Herman Hesse’s “Siddhartha”, there was this unforgettable scene that left a deep imprint on me. (With your kind indulgence, please allow me to spin-off from that books storyline; use some of its themes or even re-enact some scenes to add impact to the spin-off. Please allow me to re-weave my personal impressions of that moment, based on what I’ve experienced in my life now, [and not based on the exact book passages] in Ateneo de Davao’s University library). To start: After being separated from each other for quite some time, courtesy of their respective quests, the two childhood friends, Siddhartha and Govinda, met again. Dawn is breaking. Flickers of light skimming the edges of distant mountains and chasing away the shadows. They’ve savored each other’s company for most of the night. Exchanging ideas; reminiscing their childhood perhaps, or the teachers and new friends they’ve met along the way. For Govinda, it is time to part ways and continue his quest. He had deep respect for Siddhartha, for what he attained. Something that perhaps he could never have. He shrugged it off. Life. He loved his friend and looked at him with loving care. Siddhartha kept talking. About life, about a ferryman or something. But Govinda’s mind already stopped questing. His cup is full. His mind was already moving on to how to manage the painful but inevitable parting. For Siddhartha, it must have been very heartbreaking, seeing Govinda this way. So he stopped. Bowing slightly, full of reverence, to his dear friend, Siddhartha extended his gnarled hand, opened upwards, beckoning gently: “Come closer Govinda. Leave me with your gift of a kiss on my forehead my dear friend.” Govinda hesitated. Perhaps it is better to remember him and this painful moment, by parting with a loving gesture. They’re old. Advanced. This time together is probably their last. Govinda stood up and kissed Siddhartha’s forehead. With tears of goodbye about to fall from his eyes, his heart filled with compassion and love for his childhood friend, wanting to hug Siddhartha for the last time, Govinda’s lips, touched Siddhartha’s forehead. At that moment, Govinda, attained the Way. Wisdom, if wisdom is one of the essential elements of a life of lasting happiness, cannot be taught. Words have limits. Wisdom must be experienced. In their quests, both Govinda and Siddhartha were “seekers”. They lacked something. There is a “metaphorical” hole inside them. They need to fill it. To learn why it’s unfillable, to “take” if necessary, so they could be made whole. Whether it is knowledge, wisdom, material, non-material, or something else, they sought to close this “hole” and be made whole. What Siddhartha awakened to was the “fact” that we all are, originally, fully endowed. Perfect. We all are manifestations of the Great Pure Mystic Law, Myoho-Renge-Kyo. The essence of life. All life. Siddhartha was explaining to Govinda (as mentioned, this is a spin-off version) “Govinda, you need seek no further. You are complete. Fully endowed. You are Myoho-Renge-Kyo. Just as you are.” But because words, like knowledge, have limits, the only way left to express his love and compassion for his friend, is to help Govinda “enter the way”. But he cannot impose “the way” on Govinda. For Govinda to “enter” it, Govinda must manifest, through that “symbolic” and “metaphorical” concrete gesture, a kiss on Siddhartha’s forehead, his love and compassion for the humanity he saw in Siddhartha. A humanity present in all of humankind since time immemorial. “You are a full cup, Govinda (Siddhartha continues) You are perfectly endowed. All the colors and exquisite shapes and forms, in the physical cosmos or beyond it, moving or at rest, all matter or non-matter you could possibly imagine and envision; all the textures and things that tingles visible or invisible, imaginable or beyond imagination; all the music and tones, and melodies your ears could ever hear or capture; all the mathematical formulas, known or still unsolved or unborn; all the inventions, innovations, ideas, concepts of all forms of energy and its opposite, all the flavors of both darkness and light, of both pain, suffering, joy, all of it… all of it are within your life, Govinda. You were an artist, a mathematician extraordinaire. And all in between. A hero, a sovereign, a teacher, a parent, a friend. A woman. A man. A child, an old man. All of it and more. If your life is a tower, you have all these treasures within you Govinda.” Through your unending past lifetimes, you have accumulated all those treasures and stored them in your tower of life. And the key to make all those treasures re-surface and help complete you, Govinda, is not to lean towards thinking of “taking” of whatever you think will complete you, but being fully endowed, to start compassionately “giving” what you, unfathomably have. That is how to open this Treasure Tower. Not through the mind or ascetic meditation, but through daily concrete acts of compassion. It is extremely hard to sustain like what the ferryman do everyday. But only through concrete acts (not mere thoughts) of compassion for others will the key to unlock this Treasure tower emerge. You will then understand that just as your past is unending, this storehouse of treasures you have accumulated in your Treasure Tower cannot be exhausted, no matter how much you extract and give. Using compassion as your bucket, or your powerful pump, the well’s hoard becomes surprisingly unfathomable. Therefore, you, Govinda, are perfectly endowed. Just as “life” is perfectly endowed. The life you have and the life of the universe are one. You, in this particular lifetime, is but one of the enumerable waves of this vast ocean called life. Uncountable individual waves form, constantly manifest, dynamically disappear, and manifest, and disappear again, in an unending cycle on the “surface” of this endlessly vast ocean called life. From nothing, to something, to nothing again, to something again. Yet, a cup of ocean water taken from this ocean, contains all the ingredients of the ocean called Myoho-Renge-Kyo. The ocean swells, surge up, and down in mighty waves of the Ten (10) worlds of desires, but again, and again when the right conditions are present, a wave, like you, Govinda, will again be formed and emerge. A wave that contains all the ocean within it. Perfect. Fully endowed. Just as the vast ocean is full of unimaginable treasures, like an unimaginably vast Treasure Tower, so am I, so are you, so are the others, Govinda. You are the Treasure Tower.” Govinda slowly straightened up, as if waking from a dream. His knees still weak by these realizations, he sat beside Siddhartha. Held his friend’s hand in gratitude. Govinda did not control the tears flowing from his grateful heart through his eyes. (At this point, the Librarian gently rang the bell calling everyone’s attention. Its closing time). Filing up behind the other students walking out through the library’s doors, two thoughts surfaced: When the collective life-tendency sustains the belief that we, as individuals, as corporations, as nations, as a specie are all “imperfect”, and therefore must resort to “taking” more than “giving” to be complete, we regress. We become exclusive, our world will become “finite”, and will shrink and life becomes unsustainable. When our collective life-tendency shifts to the belief that we are all “originally perfectly endowed” and therefore must start “giving” more than “taking”, our “world” will become infinite and will continuously grow. The emergence of the original humanity in us is the emergence of enumerable Treasure Towers. The legacy of wisdom the ancients, like Govinda, and Siddhartha, and Nichiren, left us with.” But if Govinda and Siddhartha’s and Nichiren Daishonin’s life are all perfectly endowed and compassion embodied, what is there left in life worth enjoying and worth looking forward to? In a fully endowed life, what is this thing called life? (This is the final segment of commentPart2A & B)

Uber was successful because they said you didn't have to tip. As soon as they put taxis out of business, they raised price and added tipping

Blue Ocean Strategy is a fancy way of saying, "Differentiate or die."

It‘s the blue ocean way of saying that
No, it is saying that you can never win the game of differentiation. You need to focus on new marketing and new segments that competitors have ignored. Therefore, it's called the "blue" ocean.

No they started as blue ocean right from the beginning.

Yes! Blue Ocean Strategy!
In the creation of a blue ocean is through value creation by innovation.
Blue ocean strategy means do what others are not doing or cannot do.
As a new company , you can give many offers that can disrupt the marketplace seeking consumers attention.

In the closing pages of the Herman Hesse’s “Siddhartha”, there was this unforgettable scene that left a deep imprint on me.
