Trillion Market Capitalization is not a Dream

Zhao Manfu raised his glass and suggested: "Thank you Yun Qing for sharing your experience of entrepreneurial failure with all of us. This also reminds each of us to cherish today's job and do the things we do well.

At the same time, it also reminds us that we should always look at the development of things from the boss's perspective and make corresponding decisions.

Come, let's do one together. "

When Zhao Manfu put down his glass and was pouring wine, Zhou Wencheng said: "Mr. Zhao, please share your entrepreneurial story."

Zhao Manfu said excitedly: "Okay. I can tell a story related to me.

My father used to be an ordinary cadre in the forestry system. When he retired, the family was still relatively poor.

There were four of us brothers and sisters, which was not a large number for the family at that time, and not a small number including the elderly.

After retirement, my father still had a lot of ideas and always wanted to start a business, but he didn't know what to do.

He himself is an expert in forestry and is quite professional in the growth attributes of seedlings.

By chance, I was contracted to build a nursery of several hundred acres in my hometown.

After several years of hard work in the nursery, I finally earned my first pot of gold, one million.

This one million was a big deal in 1990s.

I remember that at that time, when a family was said to be relatively wealthy, it was said that the family was worth 10,000 yuan.

One million is equivalent to one million households. "

Zhou Wencheng asked: "What happened next? How did you establish the company?"

Zhao Manfu said: "Later, when I only engaged in nurseries, I found that the scope of business was relatively narrow. Many projects were real estate gardening and landscape projects. Because my father was familiar with gardens, many parties that had planted seedlings were willing to take the initiative. Find my father to help solve the problem.

After a while, with the support of the real estate bosses' business commitments, I opened a garden landscape business.

After more than ten years of development, we have gone from having no qualifications to having a third-level qualification, to having a second-level landscape construction enterprise qualification, from having no design to organizing our own design department, to having our own enterprise's second-level qualification for landscape architecture design.

In this process, the operation of an enterprise always requires many people to manage it.

After many discussions, I finally resigned from my original job as a college teacher and went to work for my father’s company, of course in exchange for shares.

Although I am not the legal person of the company, I am the general manager of the company and I manage the daily affairs. We also have many projects running at the same time, but none of them are big projects. "

Zhou Wencheng asked in confusion: "Mr. Zhao, are you looking for a place to work because your shareholding in your company is too low?"

Zhao Manfu replied: "If we don't explain this matter, most people must think so.

Although the family business I work for is much smaller than our Western construction companies, I am a shareholder after all, and my shareholding is not a few dozen percent. In this case, in addition to considerable salary income every year, there will also be corresponding shareholder dividends.

Just from an income perspective, my current income from working in Western Construction has actually decreased. "

Zhou Wencheng looked even more confused and asked, "Then I can't even guess why you chose to come to work in Western Construction."

Zhao Manfu replied: "It's a long story. I'm happy today. I'll toast everyone first and then tell this story."

Everyone raised their glasses and drank together.

Zhao Manfu continued: "Two or three years ago, Western Architecture anticipated that there would be projects in Xichuan Metropolis, so it entrusted headhunters to search for the person in charge of the production area. The requirement was to be general manager or above of each second-level garden landscape enterprise or above. position person.

The first person who came to see me was company executive Yuan Fang, and later the human resources executive Ma Wenxuan also came.

No good terms have been negotiated.

A year ago, my boss, Chairman Bai, also went to the capital city to interview me in person.

Boss Bai’s original words were, I am very optimistic about you. Although you have not thought about it now, I hope that as long as you leave your family business,

If you choose to come to our Western Building, I promise that I will never let other units treat you better than I do.

Moreover, the projects you are managing now are all tens of thousands, and you can only do one to twenty million a year. The output value is too small.

As long as you come to our Western Construction, I guarantee that the projects we can manage for you will definitely be hundreds of millions, or even hundreds of millions, or more than one billion.

Only a life in which you have managed large projects and completed multiple landmark gardening and landscape projects is the perfect life for a garden engineer. "

Zhou Wencheng asked: "Boss Bai's promise to you has also been fulfilled."

Zhao Manfu replied: "Yes, this is too easy for Boss Bai to achieve.

Later, after repeated family meetings, we decided to let me resign as the general manager of the family business and come to Western Construction to learn how to manage large projects.

Of course, a little selfishly, I also want to create some landmark garden landscape projects. "

Zhou Wencheng said excitedly to everyone: "Have you seen that Mr. Zhao, who is already perfect in our minds, is still studying and improving himself seriously. As young people, what reason do we have not to study hard? .

On this project, everyone should not be afraid of making mistakes. Everyone should have the courage to try. When facing difficulties and setbacks at work, we should think rationally and keep the interests of the company in mind. Even if we make mistakes, there are still a few of our leaders who will help everyone correct them. Wrong, I am helping everyone take responsibility.

Only by working hard, trying, and experiencing can everyone truly grow and mature at work.

I suggest that we pay tribute to our learning boss. "

"Mr. Zhao, I respect you."

Everyone stood up together, clinked glasses with Zhao Manfu and downed the drink in one gulp.

Zhao Manfu said: "Don't just listen to us, Mr. Zhou, please also tell us why you come to work in Western Construction?"

Zhou Wencheng said: "I used to work in a state-owned enterprise, mainly doing indoor decoration projects, but the salary and income were too low.

I like the environment and climate in the Nanhai area very much, and I don’t want to leave this land.

Just when I was feeling a little uncomfortable, Western Construction was looking for a project manager in Nanhai, so I casually submitted my resume.

I thought that if I didn’t match my major, I might not be able to succeed.

Who knew that Western construction interviewers said that recruiting project managers is not recruiting greening managers, and it does not require that you have to understand greening.

On the contrary, the company now lacks talents who are proficient in decoration, and what we are doing in the Nanhai area is mainly real estate projects, which just needs people like me.

Later, when we talked about wages and benefits, they were much higher than those in state-owned enterprises. They also said that there were five insurances and one housing fund, as well as output value bonus, collection bonus, settlement bonus, excess gross profit bonus, etc.

So, to put it simply, I came because job-hopping can quickly improve my living standards. "

Everyone laughed and dispersed until late at night. No one was drunk.
