About Us

Liu: Entrepreneurship 80% is because of cowardice

When I started my business, I was 40 years old, and my business colleagues were five or six years older than me, so I was not a small partner, I was an old partner. Chen is in one of our buildings, he is a math institute, I am a computational institute, the calculation and mathematics are all different, mathematics is the basic science, is what he out of the story, then wrote the reportage said that Goethe Bach conjecture what use, finally said priceless, how much money? Priceless. Doing technical research, finished things, put on one side, also can not copy, also can not produce, then do, and then awards, writing papers, explain how good, and international level, and then what is the first, then the award, then put, that is, old to do this work. There was a saying that the atom bomb is not as good as selling tea eggs, we are doing the type of atomic bomb this kind of thing, actually really to the society did what, very few people think so, my companion did not think so, in fact, my wife also opposed me to think so. I really think so. In the end I do this thing to do, I just feel the shortage of pent-up. I came out mainly motivated to have to improve the lives of 20%,80% want to know that in the end can do something, I just think that in the first 40 years ago, the first 40 years of life have been timid, suppress the shortage, what, as if not to the community a little help, to see what they really have the skills, in the end life value is what.

Wang Shi: When went to Shenzhen to start a business like the anti-Japanese war period to Yanan

I went to Shenzhen in 1983, entrepreneurship at that time in the state-owned companies to do a department of feed business, shun its natural to 1984 years later, the founder of Vanke, in 1984, feel has been a natural thing, because my experience for me, more or more to create Vanke before the 1983 to do the feed business, Now recall, can also be used to describe the soul-stirring, but the answer why said that considering the sea at that time obviously still affected by Hong Kong. Because 1982, 1980, I was in 1977 after graduating from university to Guangzhou, in Guangzhou Railway Bureau to do the project, in fact, the project is in Shenzhen, at that time is a border town, you can see Hong Kong television, the train can see the return of Hong Kong compatriots, with a few bulky, it is obvious that the gap between life is very Yearning, our company construction, every morning up will be less than one person, two people, sneaking past. Although I am very envious, I did not think of the idea of smuggling, of course, the main is not to speak Cantonese, sneak past how to survive.

After returning to Guangzhou, until Shenzhen to become a special zone, to Hong Kong near, give me such an opportunity, because of such a contrast, resolutely decided to go south to Shenzhen, the establishment of the SAR, I first to see what kind of Shenzhen special Zone, the dust rolling, large construction machinery, people's state, let people see very excited, With the anti-Japanese war period to yanan liberated areas, to yanan that mood, went straight to Shenzhen, let me recall, now think still very excited.

About stock reform

Liu: I can't learn Kingkian

That year with 200 million bought a 35% of the shares, Peking University, such as Zhongguancun later did not like Lenovo so smooth restructuring, all aspects of reason, is like my position of the people did not actively strive for, for a certain reason, I was clearly arguing. Later, a reporter asked me, assuming that the Dean of Science Week did not agree to give you 35%, what would you do? I was seriously thinking about the state of mind and the level of awareness, I do not think (to go), unreasonable. At 50 years old, a penny without, clean, run a company, because unreasonable, people follow me out, I don't care, I did not fold, they are sure a bunch of people willing to follow me out, I am very confident, from the beginning, the bank loans no problem, I will come out, I feel unreasonable, I openly to talk about, will not do anything under the I'm not going to do it all the time, and finally, like Mr. Ching, I won't do it.

About work

Liu: Lenovo Holdings listed in 2015

Next year is an important year for Lenovo Holdings, introduce me now, always said I was Lenovo Group Honorary chairman, founder what, in fact, is not, the most important title is Lenovo Holdings chairman, Lenovo Holding is the parent company, there is a vision, but this vision in the farther, five years ago, set the right, Now set is the overall listing in 2015, if the overall listing, smooth, after two years is very stable, my career is facing a good end, no longer with Wang Shi play, so this is very important.

After the listing to protect two years of stability, I draw a period, if not smooth, no matter what things will be desperate.

Wang Shi: Promoting public welfare, despite the shyness in the bag

For me it should be the eyes open is a new life, eyes closed is a rest, so every day is a new life, but just a specific answer now feel that money is more and more important, refers to what? refers to how you assume social responsibility, promote public welfare activities, light has the spirit of power, there is no use of light entrepreneurs, spend time, Energy on it, of course it's important, money is very important, Bill and wife spend their energy to run the Gates Fund, but their money is the largest fund (source), as I say, 1988, I gave up the equity, so in the promotion of public funds, public welfare activities, indeed a bit shy, So how to promote public welfare activities, I am not only doing my best, let Vanke performance better, my income more, can do public activities, also with my face, in the corporate influence, to call more enterprises, a piece to do social welfare activities, such as the establishment of hospitals, schools, libraries, A lot of this built, I think the money is more and more important, but the key to see the money who to use, how to use.

About new Life

Liu: I hope work only takes up 20% of life.

I have a lot of favorite things, do not think I like to spend a lot of time every day in the working hours, I hope that the workload remains 20%, other time to make me free more comfortable.

20% of the workload is enough, in fact, Wang Shi played enough, but also climbing, while working, while tossing, I draw a full stop, at that time rest assured toss better, will not like Wang Shi to open up a new life, I do not have that ability.

Wang Shi: 72 years old to climb Everest

Get ahead, Mount Everest, go up once, also went up two times, for what is different, ego is not satisfied, not oneself and oneself than, and oneself than is not progress, must compare with others, not only compared with others, national and other nationalities than, countries and countries than. After I climbed Mount Everest in 2003, I am praised as China's oldest Mount Everest, I very much disagree, I am compared to the international, then the global record young 61 years old, I am 52 years old what, in my summit at the same time up a Japanese, called Three Pouchon Matsuura (sound), that year 71 years old. After I went up, CCTV was hailed as the great, when China's oldest climbed Everest, I have been secretly fixed, 72 years old Mount Everest again, must surpass him. Ambition is what, I care about this thing more than material things care more, of course money is very very important. Without money, a lot of things can't be done. So maybe I don't care about money, not care about money, but more important than money is your name, dignity, you in the community how others see, this I think more important than money.

About young people

Liu: I want young people to know what it's like to starve.

I often say that the people who love to work eat red around meat and do not love to work people eat braised pork taste different. I particularly hope that the young people behind know what it's like to be hungry. It seems that the young people feel that everything is born, the original work is. I'm really afraid of this. The last time I saw Feng Xiaogang's "1942" film, I sat in the cinema for half a day, but my son they do not want to see, not to see, not willing to see bitter, but that bitter even if I do not like to see the bitter things, but I particularly love to see movies like that, especially want to put that kind of situation, although 1942 I was not born , but in 1944 my father in Shanghai and my mother held me back to Zhenjiang hometown, at the railway station to give the Japanese soldiers bowed, that kind of embarrassment and psychological situation, I remember very detailed.

Recently, on the reference message, I saw the Sino analysis written by General Liu Yazho, after talking about the Sino-Japanese War after the Chinese defeated, I feel very profound, and then I wrote in our company online, if China 50% love to see the article of Liu Asia, Chinese people still have hope, Chinese still have the blood, this word may cause 85, The young children are unhappy, said Liu Grandpa said what, we simply do not understand, completely possible, I was scolded or want to say so, because China's economy, no matter how rich, if really people scattered, no faith, no pursuit, China in the world will not stand foot.

About death

Wang Shi: Only face death, life is complete

As an entrepreneur, I was 1983 to Shenzhen, in the beginning of entrepreneurship, it should just feel that will not consider death, but also consider how to change their lifestyles, and then to work. After more than 10 years of hard work, I resigned as general manager in 99 and started climbing. Many people wonder, as an entrepreneur, why do not go hiking, in fact, so many years passed, I want to say is because mountain climbing so that I can face death, this is the biggest harvest I climbed. In fact, life is a process, from life to death, if there is no death can not have life, how to face death, attitude is very different. Just because of mountaineering, after entering the mountain, even do not know tomorrow morning, still can live in this world, such experience, so you have to consider the original avoidance of the problem, how to face death.

It is because of this experience that I know death, cherish the life, although said that life is a process, is a process from birth to death, of course, how to care about every moment in life, today special period, I and Liu, please come here, obviously and time is related, 30 years ago today, Old Liu and I succeeded in creating our company, and successfully came to today.

From the Chinese tradition, many people believe in Buddhism, the founder of Buddhism, Sage said, why the monastic enlightenment, the feeling of life and death, impermanence, so it is enlightened. For Buddhism, compassion and love in Chinese traditional culture is a very important part, but see the impermanence of people, death, see people must die and the monk, this logic, I have my own feeling, since life is a process, you should accept your old age, accept your old age in a state, is life is perfect, We can't avoid it. So in the 30 anniversary of the company, life expectancy, will be longer, or even hundreds of years, no matter how, life is limited, must continue to metabolism, fortunately, a business growth is not dependent on a person, relying on a generation of people.

I remember very well that ten years ago, Lenovo in the founder or the prime of the year, the CEO of the banner hand over to the 30 we also active on the stage, the stage is different, because the company mainly created in the next generation of people, we in the middle of society for young people to create a better future, so in time, We should face the time, so life, good life, not only to face the naïve birth, the growth of the courage, the middle of maturity, but also to face, when you go to old age, face of death, face the decline of the body. Only this face, life is a complete, glorious life.
