Liu Bang of the Western Han Dynasty was the queen, feasted everyone in the palace, and asked: "I can be the emperor, but Xiang Yu can't, all Aiqing said what the reason is?" ”
A once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to pat on the back, how could Zhong Aiqing miss it, after a period of chaos. Lao Liu made a final summary statement.
He said: "In terms of planning, I can't compare to Zhang Liang; In terms of logistics, I can't compare to Xiao He; When it comes to fighting, I can't win against Han Xin. But I just know how to use people. ”
The emperor placed the wine in Luoyang South Palace, and said: "The marquis and the generals dare not hide it, and they all say their feelings: why do I have the world? What is the reason why the Xiang family lost the world? Gao Qi and Wang Ling said: "Your Majesty has made people conquer cities and lands, so that they can benefit from them and the world; Xiang Yu is otherwise, those who have merit harm him, and the sages suspect it, so he loses the world. Gao Zu said: "The public knows one one, but the other is unknown. In the planning of the husband's plan, the decisive victory is thousands of miles away, and I am not as good as the ovary. Town the country, care for the people, give wages, and keep the grain, I am not as good as Xiao He. Even an army of millions, the battle will be won, the attack must be taken, I am not as good as Han Xin. These three are all masterpieces, I can use them, so I take the world. Xiang Yu has a fan increase and can't use it, so he is captured by me. ”Lao Liu didn't tell the truth, he was good at being shameless, and he was even better at making the right decisions at the right time.
The first challenge that all startups face is how to survive. The best strategy to survive is to pull investment, with investment, just burning money can open a way to live, just like Didi, not to mention the rest, burning money will burn the opponent to death.
The first investors Lao Liu obtained were Xiao He, Cao Shen and others. This is not the investment that Liu Bang pulled, but they sent. They sent a team of hundreds of people and the territory of Pei CountyLiu Bang raised the banner of rebellion in Pei County, and immediately recruited 3,000 people, who were Lao Liu's old bottom. Relying on these 3,000 people, Lao Liu laid down some small territories around Pei County, such as Huling, Fanghe, Surabaya, Kangfu, Fengyi and other places. The market expansion is average, but I found Zhang Liang, who is suitable for being the director of the planning office.
The second investor was Xiang Liang, who sent 5,000 people。Xiang Liang was the most important rebel general at that time, rich and manable. As soon as Lao Liu heard that Xiang Liang was nearby, he immediately went to him to invest. The 5,000 men and horses invested by Xiang Liang, plus the remaining troops, Lao Liu has 10,000 in his hands.
Four or five thousand people, more or less the boss of a market, can finally build their own company, but they have to hang under Xiang Liang's big group. With these people, Lao Liu once again captured Fengyi, and then went north to Wei, fought with Zhang Han's troops, and won a series of small markets.
The third investor was King Chu Huai, who was appointed as the chief general of the West Road。Lao Liu not only got the investment, but also got the development license, and went all the way to the west to develop the market until the best market in Guanzhong was laid.
I've survived, I'm still alive and well, I've finally completed my first strategy, and I can enjoy it. No, it's not enough to survive, you have to make it bigger, or it will be annexed.
Isn't that bullying? Well, it does sort of. On the other hand, if he didn't do this, Lao Liu would have already become Xiang Yu's ghost.
First of all, hide your strength and control your desires。In Xianyang City, not only with the common people of Guanzhong in the three chapters of the law, "The murderer dies, the wounding and the theft are punished." Yu Xi got rid of Qin Fa", and also gave up the wealth and beauty of Xianyang City. After monopolizing the market, this is not the case.
Secondly, it is to serve low and small。When the strength was still weak, when a junior occupied an advantageous position, he could attack, retreat and defend, and there were tall people on top of the sky when the sky fell. Therefore, Lao Liu corrected his position and attitude in time, knelt at Xiang Yu's feet with a sincere attitude, and successfully escaped Xiang Yu's sword and axe hand at the Hongmen banquet.
Finally, we must become bigger and stronger。The plank road is repaired in the light, and the warehouse is in the dark. There was also a political show in the middle, worshipping Han Xin as a general. When Xiang Yu went to deal with the rebellion in Qi, Dai and other places in the north, he quickly took down the Guanzhong market, which was originally laid by himself, and occupied a favorable position.
Lao Liu, relying on his ability to turn his face faster than a book and his rogue nature, said to Han Xin, Yingbu, Peng Yue, Zang Di and others: "As long as you support me, I will give you the territory." As a result,Lao Liu flickered and turned them all into subsidiaries of the group, crowning them with the name of the boss of a branch, such as turning Han Xin's King of Dai Qi into the King of True Qi, and then using their human and financial resources to deal with the biggest opponent.
Lao Liu, who adheres to the shameless road of king, once again showed this powerful ability after the chasm was reconciled. Gather the strength of all the subsidiaries, tear up the agreement, order to cross the chasm, pursue Xiang Yu, besiege him, and force Xiang Yu to kill himself on the edge of the Wujiang River. Lao Liu successfully replaced Xiang Yu and turned his group into a monopoly group.
Although Lao Liu is the president of the group, the subsidiaries under him are not easy to mess with, and if they don't do well, they will capsize in the gutter.
Then stabilize them first, sit in rows, and divide the fruits. Seven kings were divided at once, and they were appointed as the CEO of the subsidiary and the vice president of the group, each monopolizing a market.
Is that all right? Of course not, these subsidiaries of the monopoly party can't say that one day they will become bigger and stronger, and they will turn around and merge with the group.
The best way to do this is to turn a partnership monopoly into a family monopoly。Lao Liu took his ability to turn his face and not recognize people to the extreme. casually made an excuse, and got rid of Zang Di, who monopolized Yandi, and then used almost the same method to clean up the six partners along the way.
The territory of these partners was then divided among the juniors of the family, which was operated and managed, and a family monopoly was established. This also caused the rebellion of the Seven Kingdoms to his grandson Emperor Jing, but that's a story for later.
Lao Liu was still a little uneasy, so he asked the senior management of the group to hold a meeting, and asked them to all "In addition to the descendants of the Liu family, if others want to engage in local monopoly, they will kill him together" ("If it is not the Liu family but the king, the world will fight together. Verbal agreement
The above are all afterthoughts, Liu Bang at that time just made the decision that he thought was the most suitable, what strategy was not strategic, Lao Liu didn't care so much, as long as he could succeed, it didn't matter what he was.
And this is the most difficult part, making the right decision at the right time, Liu Bang made the best choice under the circumstances. Xiang Yu made the wrong decision at the right time, before there was a Hongmen banquet to let Liu Bang go, and there were eighteen kings according to his own preferences, and then there was a gap and credulity in a paper agreement, so he had to lose.
