Entrepreneurial advice from Internet giants

When talking about entrepreneurship, countless young people have dreams and want to create a career and achievements in society. However, the hardships and difficulties are two points. What's more, how can we start a business? Let's look at the entrepreneurial experience shared by Internet giants and their advice and expectations for young people.

I. What is entrepreneurship?

Lei Jun: entrepreneurship is a kind of attitude towards life. Entrepreneurship is to constantly challenge the limits of ourselves!

Zhou Hongyi: entrepreneurship is a kind of mentality of doing things, not necessarily because you have to start your own company.

Cai Wensheng: everyone wants to start a business. What is it first? In my hometown of Minnan, there is no such term as entrepreneurship. in Minnan dialect, it is called (earning food). Because I didn't even eat it before, I just wanted to earn food. When I get full, I call it (making money) because I need to make more money to buy other things. When earning, earning, and making money meet the basic needs, people will want to start their own business and seek a longer-term goal and career. Start with earning money!

Ii. How do you think about College Students' Entrepreneurship

Nowadays, many people think that we should encourage college students to start a business with caution, not only because they lack experience and experience. As Li Kaifu mentioned on Sina Weibo, "it is difficult for college students to start a business. What colleges and universities have learned cannot be connected with entrepreneurship in this sinister arena. Join a startup company or a big company for several years ." Zhou Hongyi believes: "China's entrepreneurial environment is very complex and has high requirements on entrepreneurs. College students directly start their own companies. This Entrepreneurial form has a low success rate. If college students really want to start a business, they should not apply for a civil servant or a large foreign enterprise or state-owned enterprise, but join a startup company. Training and learning how to start a business in a startup company is also a form of entrepreneurship ."

However, College Students' Entrepreneurship also has its advantages.

First of all, young people never lack courage and courage. They dare to work hard and are full of passion for their dreams.

Second, because the first entrepreneurs have no experience, they may not be able to think so comprehensively. Instead, they tend to be closer to users. Zhou Hongyi mentioned his first start-up, that is, he was confused about indirectly accessing the search market. Because of his experience, he thought too much about the possibility and made two mistakes: first, not focusing, second, summary, and refinement, not close to users. Qihoo made such a mistake in the early stage. This is the so-called "aristocratic Entrepreneurship ". It can be seen that experience is a double-edged sword. On the one hand, experience is very important to start a business, but do not stick to the existing experience to form a mindset. Learn to learn new things and accumulate new experiences with a beginner's mentality. Therefore, although the young man is reckless, as long as they have the courage to explore, they can always see hope.

3. qualities that entrepreneurs should possess

What qualities should I possess as the founder of a startup team? Zhou Hongyi told us:

1. Innovation must be thinkdifferent, rather than catching up with thinkdifferent;

2. Be pragmatic, do not show, do not speculate on concepts, pay attention to product and service details, pay attention to the user experience process, and put down the figure;

3. learning ability, self-confidence, continuous learning, advancing with the times, and constantly reflecting and summarizing your mistakes;

4. Toughness: Prepare for long-term hard work for the hard work of entrepreneurship;

5. Learn to cooperate with others.

4. Where is the team?

If you choose to start a business, joining a startup company is the best preparation and accumulation. After accumulating enough experience and understanding the development trend of the industry, and finding the target, you have to build your own team. In fact, entrepreneurs do not have much resources. The only thing they can find is that they may not be suitable for small-size entrepreneurs, classmates, colleagues, or relatives and friends. But in the early days of entrepreneurship, everyone worked together and worked hard, it can overcome many difficulties. As enterprises grow, you can find more talents and better talents. Don't blame others until you find them.

More importantly, how can we establish a good team?

Zhou Hongyi wrote "how to create an ironclad market?" Speaking of: Internet entrepreneurship has never changed. The first is the user, and the second is the team. ( Entrepreneurship  Www.lz13.cn ) My experiences with building a team are as follows: 1. You must have a certain degree of idealistic feelings instead of making a fortune. 2. Financial accumulation requires incentives to bind the interests of everyone. 3. Solve the Problem of changing old and new, and leave some benefits for the future.

Entrepreneurship is not a heavy task. It is the independent choice of each of us. We treat it as a career we love and do not start a business or start a business for the purpose of entrepreneurship. Don't give up, don't admit defeat, success is waiting for you.

V. Classic quotations from entrepreneurship

1. Every morning when the sun rises to the evening when the sun falls, ten enterprises in Zhongguancun are born. said Li, director of the Zhongguancun Management Committee. Every morning when the sun rises to the evening when the sun falls, nine companies in Zhongguancun closed down. Therefore, entrepreneurship failure is inevitable, and success is accidental. Understanding and supporting entrepreneurial losers gives them the best entrepreneurial atmosphere, said Zhou Hongyi.

2. Lei Jun talked about the equity allocation of entrepreneurship: I went to college more than 20 years ago and was dragged to start a business by several friends. We are very happy to have four people, each of whom is 25%. A few days later, the problem came, and everything had to be discussed repeatedly. In the next few months, I even elected two general managers. The company closed. In my experience, three or more partners must have a clear leader and cannot share them equally.

3. Cai Wensheng: Many people always like to drive their own steering wheel when they go out, while they need to be focused and highly nervous when driving their own cars, and the scenery is even more difficult to understand. If you want people with peace of mind to drive, choosing a taxi will be a pleasure and a wider view. This is also true for entrepreneurship. If you do everything yourself, it is difficult to do a big business. Choosing the right person and knowing how to let it go can lead to long-term development.
