After listening to Chen Mingyu's narration, Zhong Xiaohai said with a sigh: "I had only heard of Liu Yonghao's name before, but I didn't expect him to be so powerful!" Especially when their brothers dared to resign from public office to start a business in 1982, this kind of courage is really admirable! ”

Chen Mingyu also said: "Indeed, the spirit and courage of the Liu brothers who resigned from public office to start a business are really admirable! Especially when the 'Eight Kings of Wenzhou' incident occurred that year, their courage is even more admirable! ”

Zhong Xiaohai asked: "I have also heard about the 'Eight Kings of Wenzhou' incident, but I don't know much about the specific situation. Mingyu, what the hell is going on? Who are the 'Eight Kings of Wenzhou'? ”

Chen Mingyu smiled and said: "The so-called 'Eight Kings of Wenzhou' does not refer to a certain person, but refers to eight people, namely the hardware king Hu Jinlin, the mining lamp king Cheng Buqing, the screw king Liu Dayuan, the contract king Li Fangping, the thrift king Wang Maiqian, the catalog king Ye Jianhua, the coil king Zheng Xiangqing and the electrical king Zheng Yuanzhong People on the cusp of the limelight, and Wenzhou is the birthplace of the individual economy, so it has been hit the hardest. ”

Zhong Xiaohai smiled and said a little gloomily: "I don't know what will happen to the development of the private economy in the future!" In fact, I have already thought that if the economic situation changes, I am ready to donate my furniture factory to the government at any time. ”

Chen Mingyu said with a smile: "Brother-in-law, I admire your spirit. However, I can also responsibly tell you that something like the 'Eight Kings of Wenzhou' will never happen again in the future. The state will not only not crack down on the private economy, but will pay more and more attention to it and support it more and more! ”

Zhong Xiaohai asked with some doubts: "Really?" ”

Chen Mingyu said confidently: "Of course it's true! Brother-in-law, when did I lie to you? ”

Zhong Xiaohai immediately smiled: "No, Mingyu, I didn't mean that......"

"Hehe, brother-in-law, I understand. In fact, when I mentioned Liu Yonghao to you just now, I didn't want to tell you how bold their Liu brothers were back then and how well they did business, but I wanted to tell you another thing. ”

"One more thing?"

"Hehe, brother-in-law, you may not know that Liu Yonghao is now a member of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference and vice chairman of the All-China Federation of Industry and Commerce, in addition to being the boss of a private enterprise."

"Really? Liu Yonghao is so good? Zhong Xiaohai's eyes widened and he exclaimed in surprise.

"Hehe, Liu Yonghao is so good! As a private entrepreneur, he eventually became a member of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference and vice chairman of the All-China Federation of Industry and Commerce, which was recognized by the state. Brother-in-law, do you understand what I mean? Chen Mingyu blinked and asked.

Zhong Xiaohai is actually a very quick thinking person, he immediately understood the meaning of Chen Mingyu's words, and couldn't help but feel a kind of excitement gushing out from the bottom of his heart, and said, "Mingyu, what do you mean......"

Chen Mingyu nodded and said affirmatively: "That's right, brother-in-law, if you can one day make your business bigger and stronger, and become a well-known enterprise in the province and even the whole country, you can also get these honors that Liu Yonghao has won, and you can also be recognized by the state like Liu Yonghao, giving you an official identity, not to mention a member of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, even if you are a representative of the National People's Congress, it is completely possible!" Of course, the road is still very long, but it can definitely be walked. ”

Zhong Xiaohai was silent for a while, shook his head, and said, "Mingyu, you think too highly of me, how can my ability and insight be compared to Liu Yonghao?" ”

Chen Mingyu smiled: "Brother-in-law, I didn't let you compare with Liu Yonghao, let alone compare you to Liu Yonghao." Liu Yonghao is Liu Yonghao, you are you, there is no comparison. However, what I want to tell you is that since someone has been recognized at the national level by developing private enterprises, it proves that this path is working. Moreover, now the whole country is carrying out a profound reform and opening up, whether it is the support of the government, the business environment, or the capacity of the market, it is much better than when Liu Yonghao started his business! Your furniture factory has not been established for a few years, but it has developed quite well, which is a good proof. So, brother-in-law, you have to have faith. Isn't there a saying that dreams still have to be had, what if they come true? Right? ”

This time, Zhong Xiaohai was silent for a long time before he finally exhaled deeply, with a resolute light flashing in his eyes, and said, "Mingyu, I understand!" Don't worry, I'll do a good job! Even if this goal is very far away, I will definitely try my best to achieve it! In fact, when I first started working in this furniture factory, I didn't have a little bottom in my heart, I really didn't expect it to develop so well now! Therefore, I believe that as long as you persist and work hard, no one can say how you can develop in the future! ”

Chen Mingyu praised: "That's right, brother-in-law, the first thing you need is this spirit!" And then, there is still some development planning. ”

"Well, you're right, you have to have a plan, you can't do it blindly." When Zhong Xiaohai said this, he suddenly thought of something, and then said very excitedly, "Mingyu, you know that brother-in-law and I are a rough person, I don't have much culture, and it's no problem to work, but what kind of planning, management, etc., is not my strong point!" Mingyu, you have to give me an idea, help me well! ”

Chen Mingyu said with a smile: "Although I don't know much about the furniture industry, but in front of you, brother-in-law, I am not modest, so let's briefly talk about my thoughts." The first point is that you have to position your furniture factory, in short, it is to develop into a professional furniture factory. With this goal in mind, let's move on to the next steps. Since we want to develop into a professional furniture factory, I think there are five points that are very important. ”

"Wait a minute!" Zhong Xiaohai interrupted him, and took out a small notebook from his pocket, which he brought with him every day to serve as a memo, and after spreading out the notebook, he said, "Mingyu, you go on, I have to write down what you said, lest I drink for a while and forget all this." ”

Zhong Xiaotao will go to the kitchen to chat with the two ladies, while Chen Zhengmin and Cao Jinghai are chatting about old things while drinking, and no one is bothering Chen Mingyu and Zhong Xiaohai, so that the two of them can focus on this topic.

Chen Mingyu looked at Zhong Xiaohai's meticulous record-taking appearance, and quipped: "Brother-in-law, you can take good notes, I'm quite inspired now, if I drink more wine in a while, the inspiration may be gone, and I may not be able to remember what I said." ”

Zhong Xiaohai smiled and said, "Okay, don't worry, I will definitely write down every word you say!" ”

Chen Mingyu really doesn't understand the furniture industry, but the world's business, in fact, is all about the same line, to put it bluntly, doing business is nothing more than six words "buy at a low price, sell at a high price", as long as the essence of these six words is thoroughly understood, then how to do business, it will be understood.

For Chen Mingyu, a former business elite, he has long understood the essence of the business field, no matter what kind of business, the most basic truth is the same.

So, after organizing the language in his mind, Chen Mingyu said: "In my opinion, for an enterprise, if you want to do a good job, there are five most important points. The first is quality. Quality is fundamental, and if there is no quality, there is nothing else. Therefore, in any case, the quality must be controlled. Second, management. For some small workshops and small companies, such as brother-in-law, your current furniture factory, the scale is still very small, so whether there is a scientific management may have little impact, but for an ideal bigger and stronger enterprise, it is necessary to carry out scientific management with the requirements of a modern company. Brother-in-law, with all due respect, your current grass platform team is definitely not good, so the next step, you have to recruit some real talents to come in. The third is innovation. This is actually very simple, there is nothing to explain, I just want to make one suggestion, that is, you have to take out a fixed and objective amount of money every year to invest in innovation, this money must not be saved. ”

Zhong Xiaohai quickly recorded in his notebook and praised: "Mingyu, these points you said are too good, they all speak to my heart!" Oh, don't let me bother you, go on! Go on! ”

"The fourth point is to control the capital chain. I've seen a lot of companies, a lot of companies with great potential and very good growth prospects, just because they have a problem in the capital chain, and they collapse the day before they succeed. Remember one sentence: to do business, cash is always king! No matter how good the prospects of your business are, if you don't have enough money to hold on to the day you succeed, then everything is zero. ”

When Chen Mingyu said this, he couldn't help but feel a little blood in his heart, because in the "last life", he was because of the rupture of the capital chain, which caused his business giant ship to finally hit the iceberg and sink in the sea.

"Okay, the capital chain...... What else? Zhong Xiaohai is simply thirsty for knowledge.

"The fifth point is to do a good job in the market. When I say doing a good job in the market, I not only mean opening up new markets, but also referring to doing a good job in maintaining the market. Chen Mingyu said.

Zhong Xiaohai took the dragon and snake pen, and carefully recorded all the five opinions put forward by Chen Mingyu to him.

After Zhong Xiaohai stopped writing, Chen Mingyu quipped: "Done?" ”

"I'm done!" Zhong Xiaohai exhaled and praised, "Mingyu, it's really good that you said these five points, you are simply a genius!" ”

Chen Mingyu said modestly: "What a genius, in fact, this is just something I saw from some books." Moreover, these are all very general things, which are easier said than done. However, brother-in-law, as long as you can understand these five points thoroughly and can implement them in your work, it will be difficult for your business to succeed! ”

Zhong Xiaohai said frankly: "This is very difficult for me! Still, I'll do my best! Mingyu, I will definitely ask you for advice often in the future, you need to help me more! ”

Chen Mingyu smiled: "Okay, brother-in-law, when you have time in the future, go to Tongxian to find me, and I will invite you to drink!" ”
