After the two drank a glass of wine, Luo Feng said again: "I'm coming back this time, just to prepare for a big fight!" Now I have no shortage of funds in my hands, but the specific industry I will choose has not yet been determined. Mingyu, do you have any suggestions? ”

Chen Mingyu didn't answer Luo Feng's question directly, but said, "Brother Feng, can I ask you a question first?" ”

"Okay, you say."

"Do you want to take advantage of our domestic environment to make a fortune when you come back to do business this time, or do you want to really be a great business?"

When Luo Feng heard Chen Mingyu say this, he still had a goblet in his hand, but after listening to Chen Mingyu's words, he put the wine glass on the table, looked at Chen Mingyu with a playful smile, and said after a while: "Mingyu, your statement is really interesting." Actually, I've thought about the question you mentioned. ”

"Hehe, Brother Feng, it seems that we want to go together again."

"yes, that's why I said you're my confidant!"

"And what do you think about that?" Chen Mingyu asked.

"To be honest, my thoughts are a little tangled now, I want to take advantage of such a good background, seize the opportunity to make a good profit, no matter what I do, as long as I can make money. Just think that I used to speculate in Hainan and speculate in real estate, and the money I made in the stock market, I made a vote and left, I never thought that in the future, this money is easy to earn, and this life is called a chic! However, in the past two years abroad, I have specifically found opportunities to visit some large companies in Europe and the United States, such as General Electric, Hewlett-Packard and JPMorgan Chase, Nokia in Finland, Volkswagen in Germany, and Nestle in Switzerland, all of which are among the top companies in the world, that is, the so-called Fortune 500 companies. Before I visited this kind of company, I just thought that these companies are so awesome and how can they make hundreds of billions of turnover every year? But after visiting these companies and learning about the development process of these companies, I found that what shocked me more was not their annual turnover comparable to astronomical figures, but the modern operation of their companies, their unique corporate culture, and the tortuous but great development process! These things really blew me away! Luo Feng said with a sigh.

"Brother Feng, did you also make an idea of such a great company?" Chen Mingyu asked with a smile.

Luo Feng sighed lightly and said: "I can't say no, for people who do business, making money is indeed a purpose, but who doesn't want to make a Fortune 500 company?" Especially in the current situation, if you can make a company that has entered the world's top 500, it will not only be your own success, but also a national hero! However, this kind of thing cannot be done with enthusiasm! Each of the companies I have visited has a history of decades or even hundreds of years, and they have all experienced countless ups and downs, and even nine deaths, before they have come to this day! How easy it is to say that! So, I thought, but I don't dare to think about it! ”

Chen Mingyu laughed, he understood Luo Feng's mood very well. Because Luo Feng's mood is not only his own mood, but also represents the mood of many domestic entrepreneurs, politicians, and even the people of the whole country.

Since the reform and opening up, how to develop the increasingly weak vast majority of state-owned enterprises has become a high-level, and even the people of the whole country are very concerned about an issue, after countless discussions, finally this year to determine a basic strategy, in four words, is to grasp the big and let go of the small!

At the same time, after this strategy was clearly defined, from 1993 onwards, the "experiment" of clarifying the property rights of local state-owned and collective enterprises that had been surging in the southeast coast began to surface, and the enterprise reform began to enter a new period with the theme of ownership change!

The prosperity of the domestic market and the collective victory of emerging enterprises have made domestic entrepreneurs burst with confidence for the first time! Many entrepreneurs who have been successful, have a good reputation, and have seen the huge entrepreneurs contained in the strategy of "grasping big and letting go", such as Zhao Xinxian of Sanjiu Group, Wang Shi of Vanke, Duan Yongji of Sitong Technology, etc., have begun to go down the mountain to pick peaches, merge enterprises, expand the market scale, and expand their business territory!

However, for the top management, the strategy of grasping the big and letting go of the small seems to be easy to understand, but it is not so easy to implement!

First of all, which ones are "big", which ones are "small", how to "grasp the big", and if you "put down", they are all difficult problems!

However, a big idea is that "grasping big" is closely combined with the fiery and vigorous national enterprise revitalization movement, and there is a brilliant "Fortune 500 dream" behind it!

The so-called "Fortune 500 Dream" is a ranking made by Fortune magazine in the United States, which ranks global companies based on sales and total capital, and is announced on time in October every year. In 1989, Bank of China became the first Chinese company to appear on the "Fortune 500" list. But at that time, not many people in China knew about this selection, and entrepreneurs didn't care, because tens of billions of dollars in sales every year were simply out of reach for them!

However, since 1995, that is, from this year, Fortune magazine has included companies in all industrial fields for the first time, and it is from this year that domestic emerging companies have taken entering the "Fortune 500" as their goal for the first time!

For example, Haier's Zhang Ruimin clearly proposed that Haier should enter the "Fortune 500" ranking in 2006! This year, Haier's annual sales were one-eighteenth of the "Fortune 500" entry criteria! With Haier's high-profile announcement, in the following period, dozens of companies proposed their own timetable to enter the "Fortune 500"!

Attracted by the aura of the dream of "Fortune 500", not only entrepreneurs, but also high-level government and academic circles have reached an optimistic consensus, that is, "grasping big" should fully support those enterprises that have rushed out of the market and send them to the list of "Fortune 500" as soon as possible!

Entering the "Fortune 500" has become a national economic goal!

It is precisely because of this background that Luo Feng said that "under the current situation, if you can make a company that has entered the world's top 500, it will not only be your own success, but also a national hero".

"Haier's boss Zhang Ruimin has proposed a timetable for entering the world's top 500, do you know this?" Chen Mingyu said.

"Well, I've watched the news, Zhang Ruimin! When he entered Haier, it was a small factory on the verge of bankruptcy, but he was able to lead Haier all the way to today, and now he even put forward a timetable for entering the world's top 500. Luo Feng praised.

"Mr. Zhang is indeed an entrepreneur that my generation admires!" Chen Mingyu also praised it, and then asked, "Brother Feng, when you first saw Mr. Zhang put forward a timetable for Haier to enter the world's top 500, what did you think?" ”

Luo Feng pondered for a moment and said with a smile: "Admiration, and, envy!" ”

"Hehe, Brother Feng, in fact, from the first time we came into contact, I could see that you are a very idealistic, or very ambitious person! I think that when you do business, you definitely don't just want to make money, but you want to make a great career! ”

"Really?" Luo Feng is not too sure whether he has such a big "dream".

"Yes! If you didn't have this idea, you wouldn't have made so many great opportunities to make money two years ago and made a special trip to the United States to study for an MBA! At that time, there were so many people who made money doing business with you, who else but you went to study for an MBA? This is conclusive proof that you have big dreams! Chen Mingyu said conclusively.

After Chen Mingyu said this, Luo Feng couldn't help but feel a burst of excitement!

In fact, when Luo Feng went to study for an MBA, he never thought about being a great company, let alone entering the world's top 500, and at that time he didn't have the concept of the world's top 500 at all, but he felt that he couldn't just do business with his head so stuffy, and he had to improve his theoretical and knowledge reserves, so he resolutely went to the United States to study MBA!

At that time, many of his friends advised him not to go, saying that what was the use of him going to study for an MBA? Anyway, he is the one who wants to be the boss, and he will not work for others in the future, so why bother to work so hard, do you still want to get a diploma?

However, he just insisted on going, and in the end, of course, he went.

In the chat with Chen Mingyu just now, he told Chen Mingyu that he didn't study hard in the United States in the past two years, patronizing and playing, or traveling, but in fact, he did travel a lot in the past two years, but his travel was not for fun, but purposefully visited and learned about many world-renowned enterprises, at the same time, he did not give up learning at all, but worked overtime to study very diligently, although his original English foundation is very good, but in order to better understand the learning course, He also specially invited an overseas American to tutor him in English. In the end, he also graduated with honors.

You know, according to the American university system, it may be relatively easy to get in, but if you want to graduate successfully, it is very difficult if you don't have real talents!

The reason why Luo Feng is reluctant to tell the truth is just that he is afraid of causing jokes from these friends in China.

However, after staying in the United States for two years, he still did not raise his insistence on studying MBA to an ideal height, but simply felt that since he wanted to do business, he should improve his software and hardware at the same time!

However, after listening to Chen Mingyu's words, he suddenly had a feeling that touched his soul!

He couldn't help but ask himself, did he really have such lofty ideals?

He didn't dare to give himself an answer definitively, but deep down, he already knew what that answer was!

Despite this, Luo Feng still didn't dare to express this meaning, after all, this ideal is too ambitious, for him at present, it is like a mirage, and it is unattainable!

The reason why Zhang Ruimin dared to put forward the timetable for entering the world's top 500 is because Zhang Ruimin has been deeply involved in Haier for many years, and Haier is currently the largest market share in the domestic white goods industry, and the State Economic and Trade Commission has also announced that in the next few years, it will focus on supporting Baosteel, Haier, Jiangnan Shipbuilding, North China Pharmaceutical, Peking University Founder, and Changhong six companies, and strive to make them enter the "world's top 500" in 2010.

The state's support policies for these six "seed players", including investing no less than 20 million yuan in technological innovation funds to each company every year, allowing enterprises to prepare for the establishment of financial companies with public financing functions, are following the model of the Japanese and South Korean consortiums, and the specific example is the fastest growing South Korean Daewoo Group in Asia at this time!

Compared with Zhang Ruimin, he currently does not even have a business of his own, although he has also established a company when he was engaged in land speculation, stock speculation and other businesses, but this can only be regarded as a "leather bag company" and the like, after he went to the United States to study abroad, he will no longer manage, although he has not officially gone to the industrial and commercial department to write off, but in fact it has become an empty shell.

Although he is not short of funds now, but full of calculations, that is, more than 100 million, if he continues to do investment business as before, then the money is still enough, with his resources and ability, it is estimated that it will not take a few years to make his assets several times, to be a free and easy rich man, that is more than enough!

However, if you use this money to do business, especially to become a company that wants to enter the world's top 500, then this money is really not enough!

At least, in Luo Feng's opinion, this money is too little!

Because of the influence of the current background, Luo Feng also believes that only by effectively imitating South Korea's Daewoo Company and making an aircraft carrier-level group company like Daewoo Company can it be possible to enter the list of the world's top 500, but such an aircraft carrier-level company not only needs policy and financial support, but also needs the cooperation of the right time, place and people, how can it be so easy to do?

Therefore, Luo Feng sighed deeply and said to Chen Mingyu from the bottom of his heart: "Mingyu, let me tell you a heart-wrenching word, if you have the opportunity and ability, who is not willing to make a great enterprise, not to mention in order to leave a name in history, at least it can be regarded as living up to this life!" However, again, there are many things, you still have to be down-to-earth and do what you can! Without diamonds, I'm afraid I can't do porcelain work! ”

Chen Mingyu smiled slightly and said: "Brother Feng, this time I have a different point of view from you, I think there are still dreams to have, if you don't give it a try, then it will definitely never be realized, if you give it a try, what if it comes true?" ”
