Four Relationsh…
A friend indeed
An English saying has it that a friend in need is a friend indeed。 Many of Chinas top entrepreneurs have had to face up to difficult times。 At just such a point; the entrepreneurs we interviewed found themselves most reliant on their closest relations: their immediate family and best friends。
What makes Bill Gates tick?。 According to veteran internet journalist Robert X。 Cringely; at the heart of it lies Gates petitive nature; fostered by his grandmother; and played out in board games and family athletic contests。
Unlike almost all of Chinas top entrepreneurs today; Gates was born into a well…to…do family。 He had a strong relationship with his mother; a bank director; who prodded him with guidance。 His father was a successful lawyer。 He met Paul Allen; Microsofts co…founder; at high school; and later went up to Harvard with him。 But it was only when Allen was diagnosed with a serious illness; leaving Gates in sole charge of Microsoft; that he honed his executive skills。
Relationship with the country
〃China is like a university student just about to graduate;〃 said Sun Guangxin; chairman of Guanghui Group in late 2001。 〃The student knows much of what needs to be done and is preparing to go out into the world。 The Olympics and WTO will have a stimulant effect on Chinas economy; driving people to bee more petitive。〃
In the US; shareholder value is generally accepted as the reason for running a business; but in China there is a strong feeling; amongst many of the entrepreneurs I have met; of wanting to improve the lot of the people around them and; thereby; earning their respect。
Book series
The Emotional Make…up of Chinas Entrepreneurs is the fifth book in our series on entrepreneurs and entrepreneurship in China。 Our first book sets out; in a simple dictionary…style format; some of the basic facts relating to Mainland Chinas 100 wealthiest entrepreneurs; together with a description of the evolution of the China Rich List; as published for the last four years in Forbes Global magazine。 Our second book; Qualities for Wealth sets out ten characteristics that make up a successful entrepreneur。 Our third book Key Moments in Wealth Creation highlights the critical turning points for our entrepreneurs; who describe when these moments arose and the factors that influenced their decision…making。 Our fourth book 〃Fortune Genes explores the values our entrepreneurs profess to have and the way they educate their children; with a view to providing a benchmark against which people canmeasure their own success。 The purpose of this book series is to go beyond the China Rich List and start to dig out trends and ideas that e out of it。
The Emotional Make…up of Chinas Entrepreneurs is a book that takes a unique look at the link between an entrepreneurs relationships and business success。 I hope to encourage people to explore further their key relationship networks to build successful personal lives and business careers。
Thank you
Just as with the China Rich List; this book is not one persons work。 There have been many people involved in the production of this book and the rest of the series。 I would especially like to thank the top…notch journalists; who interviewed the entrepreneurs on our behalf; including Yuan Hongming; Zheng Zuoshi; Guo Huailiang; Zhang Guozheng; Liu Li; Chen Bing; Huang Na; Su Xiaohe; Xie Dan; Xue Weizhong; Yu Yong; Yuan Weidong and Zhan Zhengkai。 There was also much behind…the…scenes work by Lily Chen Bing; Linda Cen Liying and James Ding Jian。 This book would not have been possible without these people。
Finally; I would like to thank my wife; who has supported me in this project; despite us only getting married in August last year。
曹德旺:我曾遇到另一个不同的女…
我现在的老婆就是结发夫妻,她没有读过书,叫陈凤英,人很好,几十年来,煮饭,帮我管小孩,连电话都不接,她觉得自己普通话讲不好,所以不接,怕人家会笑她,她穿的衣服鞋子都是我帮她买的,家里的东西也都是我买的,她不会买东西。但是,我这个家现在所有财产都记在她的名下,我的控股公司也是她在当董事长,都是她的,不是我的,人家说这个公司是曹德旺的,但实际上从法律关系上说是我太太的。我为什么要做这样的安排呢?这是因为在我还没有富起来的时候,我曾经对婚姻徘徊过。
我今年57岁了,从23岁结婚算到现在,也过了几十年,俗话说“百年修得同船渡,千年修得共枕席”,意思就是说要彼此珍惜,不要轻易去改变。这里面的道理也是我后来慢慢悟到的。
我的老婆嫁给我的时候,还是一个少女,我们的结合完全是父母之命,媒妁之言。结婚前两个人连面都没有见过,仅仅看过一张很小的黑白照片,所以我们没有经历过谈恋爱的过程。那一年是1969年,我们非常穷,生活很苦,母亲又生病了,所以家里人就希望我先结婚,找个老婆照顾我母亲。我答应了,就是这样。
我们刚一结婚,我就把她的嫁妆全部卖掉了。她一句怨言也没有,她认为嫁给你了,你就说了算。我们30几年的婚姻生活,她一直是这样的,再苦再难也不会抱怨。她有14的马来血统,非常纯朴。新婚,嫁妆卖光,钱全给我拿去做本钱,她在家里伺候我生病的母亲,我在外面跑生意,一年到头两个人在一起的时间很少,这就是我们的“新婚燕尔”,谈不上浪漫,“贫贱夫妻百事哀”,有些事情经历了才知道里面的甘苦,所以说我们是患难夫妻。
我卖掉她的嫁妆之后就有了一点钱,这些钱就是我做生意最初的本钱。然后我就开始种白木耳,再拿到江西去卖,来回一趟可以赚七、八百元钱。这样跑来跑去,没有想到,才跑到第四趟,货就被人家扣了,不但本钱赔了进去,还欠了村里人1000多元,这要是别的女人又会怎样哭闹?
