Chapter 883: The Entrepreneur's Bible
Early in the morning of the second day, Duan Yun, his wife and Yu Shulan passed through the border checkpoint and entered Shenzhen again.
The process of trading with Wang Shi was very smooth, and in less than a morning, Duan Yun transferred 5.04 million yuan to Wang Shi Company, and successfully got a retention of 1.2 million US dollars.
After the completion of the transaction, Duan Yun still has more than 13 million yuan left in his account, of which 11 million yuan is to repay the bank's principal and interest, but the repayment date is in early March next year, so Duan Yun still has enough liquidity to operate the three factories in Shenzhen and Daxing.
After the transaction was completed, at noon, Wang Shi invited Duan Yun and his wife and accountant Yu Shulan to have a sumptuous lunch in a restaurant in Shenzhen.
At that time, Wang Shi was in his early 30s, and he was about 10 years old apart from Duan Yun, but they were both entrepreneurs, and they had similar views on many issues, so the exchange between the two was very warm, and in the end, they left each other's business cards, as if they had become confidants.
Although the business of the two is different, they are both in the stage of accumulating funds at the beginning of their careers, and like Duan Yun, Wang Shi worked as a technician in the unit after graduating from university, and both of them were engaged in technology.
In addition, at this time, Wang Shi did not begin to turn all his energy to the real estate business, before the establishment of Vanke, he also engaged in garment factories, watch factories, beverage factories, printing factories, etc., and did not determine his own business development path.
During the conversation, Duan Yun's views on many things and the current domestic environment, have a very avant-garde and profound insights, which made Wang Shi feel deeply surprised, he did not expect Duan Yun to look only in his early 20s, but he has such a deep understanding of the current domestic policy and business environment, and Duan Yun was also surprised by Wang Shi's keen mind and the richness of his understanding of various domestic business information, in Duan Yun's view, Wang Shi is simply a database of business information, he knows all aspects of domestic policy information, and can quickly analyze and find business opportunities, which shows that his success is not an accident。
Under Duan Yun's side knocks, he finally learned the reason why Wang Shi can get so much business information, that is, he himself has a very large circle of friends, this circle includes both business peers and some government leaders, Wang Shi is very good at socializing, and he is now a cadre of the Ministry of Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation of Guangdong Province, so through some daily meals and entertainment, you can get a lot of information.
This also gave Duan Yun an inspiration, in the current era of hunger and no Internet news, information collection is very important, if Duan Yun wants to make his factory bigger and stronger in the future, he must have his own circle of friends and news channels.
After eating at noon, after learning that Duan Yun and the others were going to take the train back to Shanxi in the afternoon, Wang Shi specially sent a car to send Duan Yun and the others directly to the Guangzhou Railway Station.
Sitting in the spacious sleeper private room, Duan Yun looked at the scenery outside the car window, and had an indescribable feeling in his heart.
During this trip to Guangzhou, Duan's two factories in Shenzhen were finally successfully opened, which also means that his future focus will be on the south, and in the next few years, his goal is to complete the accumulation of original funds and form a top domestic product research and development team.
Relatively speaking, it is relatively easy to make money in the real economy in this era, Duan Yun has technology, capital, and channels, and has passed the most difficult period of entrepreneurship, and if he wants to develop his business to a larger scale, then he must continue to develop best-selling new products.
Yu Shulan, Zhang Xiulan and Liang Zi looked very relaxed and happy, everyone had a big bag, bought a lot of clothes and souvenirs, ate snacks in the car, played poker, and always had a smile on their faces.
Cheng Qingyan sat alone at the window of the aisle and read the book, looking very focused, and sketching on it with a pen from time to time.
Seeing his wife's serious reading, Duan Yun's mind moved, and then he walked over.
"Competitive Strategy?" Duan Yun was stunned for a moment when he flipped over the cover of the book in his wife's hand.
Duan Yun has also heard of this book, which is a book written by Michael Portal, a famous professor at Harvard Business School in the United States, which is known as the bible of entrepreneurs and a must-read extracurricular reading for students in the economics department of their university back then.
This book analyzes the management and development of enterprises from the aspects of competitive strategy development, strategic technology development, strategic marketing strategy, information strategy, talent strategy, and other strategies, and is a very good business management book.
It's just about what I didn't expect, this book was introduced into China for publication in the 80s, and his wife Cheng Qingyan actually bought such a book.
"I saw it at Xinhua Bookstore in Guangzhou, and I thought it was very interesting, so I bought it. Cheng Qingyan glanced up at her husband and said with a smile.
"Isn't this a good book, known as the bible of entrepreneurs, which will be very helpful for you to manage an electronics factory in the future. Duan Yun said.
"Have you read this book?" asked Cheng Qingyan with some surprise.
"I've heard of it before, but I haven't seen it. Duan Yun hurriedly said.
"I feel that I am under a lot of pressure now, when I used to be a technician in the factory, I didn't have to think about anything else except technology, but now I feel that there are so many workers under my hands, and they all have to point to this factory to eat, in case I can't do this company, I am really worried about ......" Cheng Qingyan said with a slight frown.
"You don't have to worry, I believe you will manage our electronics factory well, just like this Canton Fair, you didn't have no sales experience before, but in the end you still got millions of dollars in orders, so sometimes don't underestimate your potential, in fact, you are very strong, but you haven't discovered it yourself." Duan Yun said to his wife with a smile.
"I just wish I could get things done, and I feel like I have too many things to be missing......"
"It's okay to learn slowly, I'm next to me when the sky falls. Duan Yun gently stroked the hair on the top of his wife's head, and said gently: "No one is a natural entrepreneur, the road is taken step by step, you have always been a very good person, even my two apprentices, Erhu, they can be factory directors, and they can be the factory director, and they are in charge, these two guys used to be scumbags, and they started farming before graduating from junior high school, are you not as good as the two of them?"
"I'll do my best. Cheng Qingyan bit her lip and said.
"Doing business is a comprehensive science, in addition to having technology, vision and capital, but also have connections and relationships, this time before we go home, go to Taiyuan first, I will lead you to know a few people. Duan Yun said.
