Chu Shijian is one of China's most controversial financial figures.
Chu Shijian is one of China's most controversial financial figures. He is regarded as the most respected entrepreneur by Wang Shi. was admired by Jack Ma, saying that he could feel the entrepreneurial spirit in him, and said that he was an amazing person.
He was born in a peasant family, participated in the guerrillas in his early years, served as the district mayor and secretary of the district party committee, and was branded as a rightist and sent to the Hongguang Farm for transformation.
He has successfully started two businesses and is known as the king of Chinese tobacco and the king of orange in China. He built Hongtashan into a famous brand of cigarettes in China, and he made Yuxi Cigarette Factory the first in Asia. He has been elected as one of the "Top Ten Reform Figures" in the country.
He lost his daughter at the age of 68 and experienced the pain of a white-haired man sending a black-haired man. He was imprisoned at the age of 71, and when he was released on medical parole at the age of 74, he contracted to grow oranges in barren mountains and started a second business. "I want my life to be worth now, not how it was yesterday," he said. ”
He has witnessed the various wonderful and twists and turns experienced by the motherland since the reform and opening up, and has also personally created waves of peaks and miracles.
The first lesson that Chu Lao taught us was patience. Chu Lao started planting oranges at the age of 74, and many people were puzzled that after the oranges were planted, they would bear fruit for many years, so why didn't he choose something to do that would yield results faster? . But in Chu Shijian's view, the years are long, life is long, and the road always has to be taken step by step in order to walk steadily and openly.
This life is a marathon, sometimes it is not so important to start fast, as long as you settle down, be more patient, and go further today than yesterday, you are not afraid of not achieving the goal in your heart.
Among the many life lessons taught to us by Chu Lao, the "best strength" in the face of suffering is an extremely important lesson. General Patton said: "The measure of a man's success is not the height of his ascent to the top, but the strength with which he falls to the trough." "Chu Shijian's life has been full of ups and downs, the scenery and glory at the peak do not need to be detailed, it is worth thinking about that even if he falls to the bottom of life, he can miraculously reach the bottom**.
He said that as long as you are responsible for yourself, no one can bring you down. Yes, in the journey of life, it is common to fall. Whether it is tripped over a stone or accidentally stepping into the air, the moment you fall, the pain in your heart spreads throughout your body and hangs like a shadow over the years to come. But if we can withstand the pain and stand up bravely after falling, the whole world will cheer for us.
When people are at a low point, they learn to be happy in hardship, so that they can be Jedi**. Chu Shijian said that this is called "calling Huazi to raise parrots". Go to the poor place of the water, and sit and watch the clouds rise. You have to be convinced that only after tasting the bitterness can you know how to cherish the hard-won sweetness; After going through the vicissitudes of life, I learned to be light and light. I have never experienced a journey through mountains and rivers, where can I have a bright life. When the tide of life comes, you might as well calm down, find the little joys in life, and face all the setbacks and pains with a smile.
This is an era of rampant materialism and fast pace, and young people can easily be overshadowed by the noisy scene and lose their way because of the wave of new things such as the Internet wave.
We can pass on the spirit of Chu Lao's refusal to admit defeat, take the initiative, and strive to create a beautiful life of our own.
