Rebirth of the Wild Age

In the public chapter of this book, we once said that Song Weiyang felt that his professional knowledge was insufficient in his previous life, so he signed up for short-term MBA classes in many schools.

Song Weiyang naturally went to Cheung Kong Graduate School of Business, and the biggest gain was getting to know several bosses.

What Song Weiyang is telling the students now is actually derived from the school motto of Cheung Kong Graduate School of Business: take advantage of the situation, understand the way, and excel in skills.

It's just that Song Weiyang's understanding of these words is obviously different from Cheung Kong Graduate School of Business.

In Cheung Kong Graduate School of Business, Position is the biggest, which can be understood as foresight; Tao is the second, which can be understood as true knowledge; Skill is the foundation, which can be understood as practice. Song Weiyang believes that Tao is the ultimate pursuit, covering the realm of life, moral quality, perseverance, ideal pursuit, etc.

Therefore, Song Weiyang directly changed these six characters into common skills, control the situation, and harmony.

This obviously raises a level. Cheung Kong Graduate School of Business’s “taking advantage of the trend” only pursues following the trend, while Song Weiyang’s “controlling the trend” also includes creating and controlling the situation by himself. Just like he took the Wintel Alliance as an example, using its own advantages to formulate industry standards, this is a typical game of using power to overwhelm others. Cheung Kong Graduate School of Business's Ming Dao is just to gain true knowledge, while Song Weiyang's He Dao emphasizes the unity of knowledge and action. As for the difference between Excellent Technique and Tongshu, it can be understood literally.

In addition, Song Weiyang also changed the order of the ranking. Tongshu is the basic operation, which can be used as a successful businessman; .

Li Chaoren is in line with his own way, which is a benchmark; Mr. Huo is in line with his own way, that is another benchmark.

There are tens of thousands of avenues, it's all up to you to choose.

Jinniu Business School, each semester starts for seven days, which is a closed training camp.

This so-called closed system means that you must come when you are in class, and there is no room for asking for leave. If you miss any class, the credits for this class will be directly judged as invalid. As for the four days of classes (weekends) in the next month, it doesn't matter if you come or not, you can ask for leave at any time if you really have to deal with important matters.

But, even for those weekend courses, it is rare for students to ask for leave rashly. Because there are a lot of practical courses, such as arranging a visit to Xifeng Company, Yang Xin, as the CEO, will personally accompany the lectures, and there is no such opportunity in normal times. Or, once a high-quality company has fallen into a trough, after the business school has reached a cooperation with the other party, it will bring the students to analyze and discuss, and everyone will work together to formulate a development plan to save the company, and through the follow-up development of the company. Summarize lessons learned.

This kind of business experience of learning and drawing lessons is far more able to train people than learning theories behind closed doors.

By the way, every class has homework, and it is often done in groups, which cannot be done by one person. This not only promotes the communication between the students, but also can exercise the students' teamwork ability.

It has been three days since the school started, and the students quickly divided into two factions.

One group aims to make friends and have various parties and games after school; the other group aims to learn knowledge. Because the courses are too heavy, they will take time to preview and review after class, and often call the teachers for advice.

Ding Sanshi belongs to these two factions at the same time. He loves to play and make friends, but after playing, he will race against time to learn.

At this moment, Ding Sanshi is singing in the cash drawer.

Karaoke, which was popular in the 1990s, has basically withdrawn from the stage of history due to the competition from discos, bars, nightclubs and other places. The original ktv appeared ten years ago (it was still called karaoke at that time). The cash drawer branch just opened this year is the first mature ktv in Huadu.

This kind of positioning made the karaoke industry, which was declining in the west, become popular again and became popular in the three places on both sides of the strait.

However, the older friends are used to the name of karaoke, and they couldn't change it for a while. After school, Niu Guangcheng said: Come on, I will invite everyone to sing karaoke tonight! Cash drawer ktv.

Mr. Song's 'Tao' is to build bridges and pave roads to be a good person, and earn money to buy fame in the local area. Niu Guangcheng put his arms around Xiaomi and poured a glass of beer. That’s right, it’s so mysterious that it almost bluffed me.”

A boss named Li Zhenan said with a smile: Old cow, you have only listened to the superficial, and did not understand the essence of Mr. Song's lectures. According to my understanding, Mr. Song's 'Tao' is actually a personal cultivation and code of conduct. Including internal spiritual thinking, as well as external words and deeds. The aristocratic spirit of western big families is a manifestation of Tao; Bill Gates donated 20 billion US dollars, which is also a manifestation of Tao. As for doing business in China, I think We should generally follow the doctrine of the mean, so that we can live smoothly in the world and stand firm.

Fan Weiguo, a first-year student at Ma's Whampoa, laughed and said: According to Mr. Song's lecture content, there is actually another understanding. That is, entrepreneurs should look like entrepreneurs. You don't look like entrepreneurs if you hug Xiaomi all day long. , more like an upstart who is suddenly rich. It’s not that we look down on you, but that you’re losing value by doing so, and everyone will follow you to lose value.”

Is there? Niu Guangcheng was not angry, but thoughtful.

The remote city and county where Niu Guangcheng lived really didn't produce any decent entrepreneurs, and his previous relationship circle was also a group of nouveau riche. In his established thinking, wearing a famous brand, traveling in a luxury car, and holding Xiaomi is the embodiment of a successful person. If you go out to dinner parties without a beautiful woman, you will be discriminated against by other bosses.

But with Niu Guangcheng's human talent, he felt very clearly these days that many students in his class looked down on him. At the beginning, he always felt that this kind of contempt was due to the fact that he was born in a small place and hadn't studied for a few days, but he soon discovered that some classmates in the same situation as him were very popular.

Yes! Several students said in unison.

It can be seen from this that although Niu Guangcheng has a lot of shortcomings, he is still very good at making friends. If they didn't treat him as a friend, how could these bosses remind him to correct?

Niu Guangcheng wondered: If you become a big entrepreneur, you can't go out with Xiaomi?

Ding Sanshi smiled and said: Of course, the premise is that your success has reached the point where people have nothing to say. Didn't Boss Song use an article in Fortune magazine as an example today? Foreigners laugh at our Chinese entrepreneurs when they drink red wine. Sprite, I think this is a kind of bumpkin behavior. I think Boss Song said it very well. Chinese people drink red wine with Sprite and they are bumpkins. British people drink tea with sugar and milk, so they are not bumpkins? Put it more than 100 years ago, then British milk tea must have been laughed to death by Chinese people, but now it has become a fashion trend. This is a manifestation of potential. Western civilization is strong, and their farts are delicious, so it has become the standard not to drink red wine with Sprite. etc. One day when China becomes stronger, the practice of Chinese people mixing Sprite with red wine may also be followed by Westerners. Now you have a big career, and you still show off with your arms around Xiaomi all day long, not like the current Chinese bosses Do you drink red wine with Sprite? When you really become the richest man in China, not to mention hugging Xiaomi all day, even if you go out with a dog, you will be sought after as having personality.

To put it bluntly, morality does not match! Your words and deeds are not consistent with your actual situation, the public's appeal to the positive image of the rich, and the requirements of the insiders for your peers. Another boss summed it up.

Ding Sanshi said: Boss Song established a Jinniu Club, and its members are all well-known entrepreneurs in the country. Among them, Duan Yongping, the boss of BBK, is my senior. He told me a story in the Jinniu Club. The boss of Geely Automobile is also One of the members of the Taurus Club, the boss’s dress is very rustic, the suits he wears are often old and ill-fitting, and he often says that he is a country bumpkin, a farmer entrepreneur who knows nothing. But the more he talks, the more he understands The less his people dare to treat him as a country bumpkin, because they all know that he has a very shrewd mind. This contrast forms a unique temperament. People in the circle respect him very much, and ordinary people admire him very much. This is his personality. 'Dao', I'm a bumpkin, I don't understand anything, but I just want to work hard, and I can accomplish the impossible!

Mr. Song's 'harmonious way', I understand Wang Yangming's unity of knowledge and action, said Liu Zhixiong, a first-year student of Ma's Whampoa. 'The two words actually condense all the core of top entrepreneurs. Whoever can do it perfectly will be the industry benchmark, and even if they go bankrupt, they can make a comeback.

Although some people said it in a simple way and some people said it in a polite way, Niu Guangcheng understood everything. He wondered: Then why did Mr. Song ask us to do more charity, be honest and abide by the law, and keep in mind the sense of social responsibility of entrepreneurs? What does these things have to do with personal cultivation?

It's abstruse, do you understand? Do you know how to join the Tao? The other boss laughed, Actually, I don't understand either. I understand it. What is the sense of social responsibility of entrepreneurs, what is charity and what is the mission? This is a reasonable way of training. I like football. If you can’t play football, you can practice shooting and passing people. You have to practice jumping and dribbling first, and you can practice in depth after you have cultivated the sense of the ball. Take you as an old cow Say, if your behavior is restrained and you are keen on doing charity, then over time, your reputation will improve, and your impression will also improve. An entrepreneur with a sense of responsibility. The Tao is from the shallower to the deeper, and if you do charity for a long time, no matter whether you have the Tao or not, others will think that you have entered the Tao, and your external image and temperament will be different!

Another person said: Didn't Mr. Song give an example? There are many big bosses in the Chinese business circle who like to climb mountains. They think that climbing can exercise mental perseverance, and long-term persistence can cultivate perseverance. Mr. Song said that there is no need to climb mountains, and you must persist every day. Running. Running for 30 minutes a day seems easy, but as long as you can persist for three years, the whole person's spiritual temperament will change from the inside out. This change is not only personal, but also brought to your company. It is a kind of improvement of personal cultivation. Reading is the same, if you insist on reading serious books for 30 minutes every day, you will have a cultural temperament in a few years.

Niu Guangcheng smiled and said, Forget about reading. I insist on running for 30 minutes every day. By the way, I can lose weight.

Ha ha ha ha!

Amidst the laughter of the crowd, the Jinniu Business School is on its way to the Jinniu Sports Academy and will never return.

In fact, there is another point that no one has said clearly. Song Weiyang repeatedly mentioned the sense of social responsibility of entrepreneurs and asked everyone to do more charitable and public welfare activities. In fact, he was raising potential, or raising hope, as the saying goes, building a golden body.

The students didn't talk about it, and Song Weiyang wouldn't admit it, he would only talk about it in class. And Song Weiyang also emphasized that no matter how many good deeds are done, if the outside is not the same, what is molded is not a golden body, but a clay bodhisattva, which will collapse when it encounters a flood. The correct way to build a golden body is to join the crowd, that is, to benefit more people, and let those who have not benefited respect you. The more people who benefit, the more people respect you, the flood will go around you.

In addition, there are also particularities in doing charity. It should not be too high-profile, nor too low-key. It is best to be able to grasp a certain degree. Of course, Song Weiyang also said that this kind of charity is fake charity, and true charity comes from the heart and does not expect anything in return. If you can achieve true charity, you can be considered as having your own Tao and have reached a certain spiritual state.

In the private ktv room, the bosses were still discussing enthusiastically. Each of them had a different understanding of Hedao, but they all thought that what Song Weiyang said was very reasonable. Enterprises can do long-term, and entrepreneurs can stand tall. Skill is very important, and potential is more critical, but Tao determines the ultimate height and depth.

On the last day of the seven-day training camp, Song Weiyang asked people to hang up calligraphy and paintings in the business school.

This calligraphy and painting was specially created by Liu Wenxi, a master of contemporary Chinese painting. The main body of the picture is a standing portrait of Wang Yangming. The content of the mention is:

Tongshu, control the situation, join the way.

The mediocre is mediocre, the wise is skilled, the accomplished takes advantage of the situation, and the perfect is in harmony.

Both internal and external cultivation, combined use of skill and power; the unity of knowledge and action is the foundation.

Entrusted by Mr. Song Weiyang, the school motto of Jinniu Business School was recorded in February of Renwu Year. Liu Wenxi, a disciple of Mr. Tao Xingzhi and a disciple of Mr. Wang Yangming.

All the students looked up at this calligraphy and painting, and instantly felt that Jinniu Business School was full of force.

Song Weiyang had already left Huadu long ago, Ding Sanshi called directly and asked, Old Song, can I have someone take a picture of the calligraphy and painting on the wall and send it to Netease?

Let's shoot, it's not shameful. Song Weiyang said.

Not only Ding Sanshi asked Netease to report on the school motto of Jinniu Business School, but also those bosses who opened blogs because of the online scolding war last year, also took photos and posted them on their blogs, which instantly aroused discussions and onlookers of thousands of netizens, followed by many Paper media spontaneously reproduced the report.

Jinniu Business School is on fire, not the kind of false fire that has been hyped up, but a fire that both business people and ordinary people are concerned about.

Ordinary people can't understand professional financial knowledge and human resource management, and people in the industry have already heard the calluses. Only the content in this calligraphy and painting is full of high-grade style, so that ordinary people can understand it at a glance, and let people in the circle think about it.

At least countless domestic small and medium-sized business owners, as well as those company executives who have pursued, many of them regard the school motto of Jinniu Business School as their standard.

Folk calligraphers took the opportunity to make a fortune. In order to pretend to be aggressive, many small bosses specially asked someone to write down these few sentences, framed them and hung them on the walls of their offices. It seems that as long as these few lines are hung up, the small bosses will master the skills, control the situation, and join the Tao. Whenever friends or collaborators come to visit, they point to the words and talk about their life realm and way of doing business.

This is the same as Wolf Totem became popular. Entrepreneurs said that they believed in the wolf nature culture.

And Xiang Bing also received calls constantly, all asking about registration matters. Within a month, hundreds of bosses expressed their desire to enroll.

In fact, these are all fictitious, the real key lies in Song Weiyang's status as the richest man in mainland China. It's reasonable for him to say a few nonsense words casually, let alone true. If it were a small boss who said these words, he would probably be ridiculed by all kinds of people.

Winners shit smells good, maybe cherry, and Buffett and Coca-Cola agree.
