Chapter 121: The Vision of Vientiane (Second Update)
The key to a speech is that there is no one in sight, that is, when the speaker stands on the stage, what he sees is not a group of people, but a group of people.
Just like Steve Jobs, whenever he stood on the stage, the whole person felt like a world away, like a bard, spitting out mysterious notes from his mouth, and countless audiences were silent.
Any inadvertent gesture, any fleeting glance, will deeply stimulate people's nerves and leave an indelible impression......
Such a bearing and style are destined to become classics, so that countless ambitious latecomers can't help but want to imitate them.
At this time, Lin Han looked down at the audience, the chairman of the board of directors of Alibaba Group, the engineering director of Huaxia United Engineering Company, a kung fu superstar, and a comedy superstar...... None of this exists.
Instead, there was just a crowd of people who were watching him in whispers.
He stood on the podium, and immediately forgot what he had written down.
"Just now, Director Guo of Huaxia United mentioned to me the vision and mission of the company. To be honest, I didn't expect Vientiane to make such rapid progress, so I never set up a great and ambitious vision for Vientiane. ”
Guo Wei, who was sitting in the audience, was stunned when he heard this, and then smiled, but didn't say anything. The other viewers couldn't help but be a little interested, and some people who were bowing their heads and playing with their mobile phones also raised their heads and looked at Lin Han with interest.
Ma Ling's subsequent speeches and activities were mostly based on the script, and they talked about a rather heavy environmental topic, which made people lose interest.
As soon as Lin Han came up, he spoke off topic in a relaxed tone, which made the audience suddenly feel refreshed.
To some extent, this is also a good foil for peers.
Lin Han said: "As we all know, Apple's vision is 'let everyone have a computer', Alibaba's vision is 'the world's largest e-commerce service provider', and Tengxun's vision is 'the most respected Internet company'......"
As he spoke slowly, the people in the room listened.
"The vision of an enterprise represents its direction and spirit. Some of the world-class companies I have just mentioned have ambitious visions. ”
"Vientiane still has a long way to go, but I believe that the road we are on must also lead to greatness. ”
Lin Han's words changed: "The current Vientiane is divided into two parts, one is Vientiane Technology, and the other is Vientiane Fund. ”
"Vientiane Technology started with sewage treatment and is currently developing waste treatment, and the overall strategy tends to use the power of industry and commerce to rectify the ecological environment. ”
At the time of its establishment, 37.5% of the funds were allocated to public welfare projects, half of which were social welfare and half were greening funds. ”
Hearing this, everyone in the audience showed incredible and even shocked expressions.
37.5%!
Alibaba Group's investment in the field of public welfare is 0.3% of its annual revenue, which is already a very good proportion. And the Vientiane Fund has just been launched at 37.5%, which is simply incredible!
Lin Han smiled slightly: "Some people may feel unbelievable, but these are not secrets, as long as a little verification, it can confirm that what I said is true." Here and now, I don't have to lie about it. ”
The venue gradually fell silent.
If a company can put 37.5% of its funds into public welfare, then no matter what, it is worthy of respect.
"Vientiane's ability to invest so much in the field of public welfare is not impulsive or ill-considered, but due to some objective factors. ”
Lin Han paused: "To put it simply, Vientiane has more advanced technology and has a profit margin that far exceeds that of other enterprises...... It's like Gurley, who has the core of technology. ”
The audience burst into laughter and applause, and the representatives of Gurley Company were crying and laughing.
"As an endless desire, money will be full of copper stench. And as a means of passing through the world, money can be filled with divine brilliance. Lin Han spoke firmly.
"Vientiane can generate more profits, and I hope to be able to do something with them. So we're paying more attention to environmental issues and social issues. ”
When he said this, many business representatives present showed a little emotion.
They don't care what Vientiane does with its own business.
But if Vientiane can really create more profits, it will undoubtedly be a very ideal partner......
"We aim for all great businesses, and making a profit doesn't deserve the vision of being a great business. Lin Han said slowly.
"I hope that through the power of Vientiane, people's production and life can be more coordinated and reasonable, so that civilization and nature can achieve a high degree of unity and ...... under a certain framework."
"Vientiane's vision, if summed up in one sentence, I think it should be 'make the world more orderly'. ”
"Bang Bang Bang ......"
The crowd applauded and the applause poured in like a tidal wave.
Make the world more orderly!
There is no doubt that this is a great vision.
And a company that allocates 37.5% of its funds to the public welfare sector is undoubtedly a great enterprise.
For a time, the media present recorded this sentence one after another, which was unprecedented - this is the vision of Vientiane.
After a while, the venue gradually calmed down.
After talking about the vision of the enterprise, Lin Han suddenly said: "I want to ask you a question, does anyone know how many trees there are in the world?"
As soon as this remark came out, the people in the audience began to discuss one after another, some said hundreds of billions of trees, and some said trillions of trees.
Lin Han smiled: "No one could explain this question a few years ago, but recently scientists have given a clear answer. That is, there are about 3 trillion trees in the world, and 10,000 years ago, that number was 6 trillion. ”
There are about 3 trillion trees in the world, according to a Yale scholar who recently published in the world's top scientific journal Nature.
"In 10,000 years, an average of 300 million trees will be lost every year. Since modern times, the rate of tree decline has soared, and humans currently consume about 15 billion trees every year. ”
After a pause, he continued: "If this momentum continues, I even doubt that we will see a world of extinct trees in our lifetime. ”
Tree extinction...... Such a scene is really terrifying when you think about it. The audience whispered again, talking to each other.
"Now the question is, do we have what it takes to prevent this from happening?" Lin Han glanced around, and the arena was immediately quiet.
The answer is obvious. He smiled.
"We can do the math. There are 3 trillion trees in the world, and according to the ratio of China's forest area to the world's forest area, it can be roughly estimated that there are about 100 billion trees in China at present. ”
"There are more than 100 billion trees, and as long as about 50 billion trees are added, the forest coverage rate of China can be close to the level of the Tang Dynasty. This is a reasonable figure, and it is acceptable for the environment and the economy. ”
"Before I started my business, I was a forest ranger. As far as I know, the unit price of buying saplings in large quantities will not exceed one yuan. 50 billion trees, the total cost of saplings will not exceed 50 billion yuan......"
Ranger?
Before the words fell, the venue suddenly became lively, and people seemed to have discovered something extraordinary, and their expressions were a little exciting.
The first thing that comes to mind for a person who has started a number of businesses at the age of 25 and made a small success is what kind of background this person will have.
And now Lin Han said that he used to be just a forest ranger. Someone with power, money, or power, who will be a forest ranger.
What is it?
This is a counterattack, this is inspirational!
The media at the scene were agitated, and the flashing lights were on non-stop.
The editor-in-chief of a media outlet immediately instructed his subordinates next to him: "Send the photos back to the Shock Department, and let people quickly prepare a report entitled "From Ranger to Forbes, Revealing the Legendary History of Lin Han". ”
The subordinate was stunned: "Forbes?
"You don't care if he's on or not!
"And how do you write about his legendary journey?"
"Hundreds of searches! It's really not good, don't you have imagination yet?"
"Oh......"
After a while, the field gradually quieted down. It's just that the legend of a forest ranger has been inadvertently born and spread......
Lin Han continued: "Hiring people to plant trees and taking care of them during the period is a big deal, but it will not exceed 200 billion yuan. Even if there is no profit in the middle, the total investment is only more than 200 billion yuan. ”
"Spread out over a period of 10 years, across the country, each person only needs to save one bottle of mineral water a month, which is enough to support this plan. ”
Saying that, Lin Han laughed: "Some people may say, isn't your idea similar to 'everyone give me a dollar, and I will become a rich man'?"
"But I would say, it's obviously different. Not a beggar, no one will give alms for nothing, and even a beggar will not win everyone's sympathy. ”
He looked around and paused for a moment: "So, Vientiane Forest Company does not completely pin its grand goal of greening the world on people's donations, because it is unrealistic. ”
"Our green fund, while receiving gifts from kind people, is also more concerned about the return on various investments and various ways to obtain additional benefits...... In short, the money we need to green the world comes from both kindness and hard work. ”
"Vientiane Forest is not only a public welfare, but also a cause. ”
There was warm applause in the venue, and people responded with enthusiasm.
The applause gradually subsided, and Lin Han said again: "Some people may think that the goal of Vientiane Forest is too ambitious, but I don't think so. ”
"When the telephone was first invented, the President of the United States said that every town should have a telephone, which was considered a rhetoric at the time. Today, however, we have a phone for almost everyone. ”
"Mr. Ma once said that he wanted to do tens of billions of business, but others asked him if he knew how to count. Up to now, Alibaba Group has a market value of several trillions. ”
"Hahaha......"
The people in the audience clapped their hands and laughed, and so did Ma Ling.
Lin Han said: "I believe that in the near future, someone will also use the example of Vientiane Forest Company to illustrate his own rhetoric. ”
In the end, he first looked at the people under the stand silently, his eyes were calm, as if something was brewing, and then he said slowly:
"This is the only possibility, because if we lose the forest, there will be no so-called 'near future'. ”
"Bang Bang Bang ......"
The thunderous applause was like a long-pent-up cloud and rain, cathartic, and many people even stood up and applauded Lin Han.
