"Harvard Yale is not as bold as dare", "Tsinghua University is not as brave as the big," from Harvard's podium to the Central European international Business School podium, Wang repeated such sentences.
The latest 2014-year Chinese rich list shows that he is still the richest man on the mainland. "Wang Success" in, "innovation, daring, dare to try" ranked first, this is his life creed and values of the most important part.
"Tsinghua University is not as brave as the big"
26 years ago, the 34-year-old Dalian Xigang District People's office director Wang inherited the Wanda Group's predecessor-Dalian Xigang District residential development company, the aggressive for today's Wanda business empire kicked off.
He said he is not only on, not only books, not only foreign, how dare to dare to do, "this is the most important, without this may be nothing."
It is not enough to have courage, but also to adhere to the spirit. Wang said that all the innovation is faced with failure, there will be a perfect process, many people after one or several failed to give up, only persistent insistence on the ultimate success.
In Wang's view, China now lacks many factors, such as means of production, but the most lacking is entrepreneurs. And for the entrepreneurial rate of Chinese college students, he looked worried: "Less than 1%, is the world average of more than 10 points." American college students have more than 30%, the world average of 10%. How can such a low entrepreneurial rate be an entrepreneur? How can you achieve your dream? ”
Wang want to tell the young people now, there is not enough dream, but also brave to take the first step, as he often mentioned a word, "Tsinghua University is not as daring," "If you go to try, perhaps half of the success of the failure, but not the chance of success is 0".
Wang also used practical action to support young people in China to start a business. He was China's first start-up fund, and initially cooperated with people, and then set up a separate Wanda venture capital, each year to support 100 of college students to start a business.
Most admired Entrepreneur
Wang and Ma Yun's 100 million-dollar gamble is so well known that when Wang the name of Mr Liu and Jack Ma in answer to the "Most admired entrepreneur", all the people present were surprised.
Wang's comments on Mr Liu are high, and most of these evaluations are about character, such as "Old Willow is a real entrepreneur leader, decent, just, and outspoken about a friend's mistakes." He stressed: "This is very rare, many people only say compliments." So (Liu) got everyone's allegiance. ”
Wang also has good reason to appreciate Ma Yun, as he said, the latter "innovative, active, innovative new business model, and the young people also set a great role model." He paused and added, "It's both a challenge and a shock to the real economy."
No forever friend, but no eternal enemy. At the end of last year, Wang took the first step of cooperation with Ma Yun, let Wanda Cinema settled Alipay. When it comes to betting on the day, Wang a little understatement: "That's actually a joke."
Among foreign entrepreneurs, Wang most admired is Bill Gates. He called Gates "social entrepreneur" and regarded it as the highest level of entrepreneurship. But in the inheritance of assets, Wang said that although he would imitate gates, but still will retain the Chinese cultural tradition, will not only give children leave 1 million dollars, "My idea will still stay some, may leave a 10% bar, other do fund, we are applying".
Cultural Empire
Wang has repeatedly mentioned "Avatar" on various occasions, which is one of his most admired films. He was impressed by the 14-year-long, nearly 500 million-dollar budget of Avatar. And more importantly, the film's emergence has helped to promote the global IMAX technology, "before this global IMAX screen number of less than 200, the next few years the world has been close to 10,000."
Wang's dream of "cultural empire" is clearly outlined in a few words. According to Wang's introduction, 2020 Wanda's goal is to achieve 1 trillion yuan in assets, and the super carrier is mainly composed of three major plates, respectively, real estate, cultural industries and financial industry.
The cultural industry is an important part of the map.
"I dare not Say (Wanda) has such great achievements in technology, but we hope that Wanda will use its own actions to promote Chinese culture with some successful things, and hope to hear China's voice gradually in the world cultural industry, especially in the film industry." "Wang said.
At present, Wanda is building the world's largest film industry base in Qingdao, as well as its own production companies, distribution companies, international film festivals and the number of the world's first film terminals.
Wang said that before 2020, 6-7 or even 5-6 years, Wanda will certainly become one of the world's top cultural empires.
"Especially in the film industry, we have the uniqueness and uniqueness of the world, but how to make the advantage into the future competitiveness, this is what we need to (think)." ”
