If you dare not go out of the inherent mode of life, you will not gain


Most people may not have thought that quite a few billionaires started their homes eight hours away.

Eight hours away from the gold rush, accidentally became the billionaire to promote Ma Huateng.

The value of Ma Huateng is now about 2 billion yuan. When studying at Shenzhen University, Ma Huateng's computer technology level has made the teachers and students look at each other. He can become a nemesis of various computer viruses, and can provide a good solution for the maintenance of school computer networks. At the same time, he often does some hard disks. The "locked" prank made the school room manager cry and laugh.

After graduating from Ma Huateng, he entered Shenzhen Runxun Company. He is a tossing person and can't spare himself in his spare time. He once invested 50,000 yuan, built four telephone lines and 8 computers at home, and assumed the role of a website station in Shenzhen. He was busy every day after work. Through the Internet, Ma Huateng has met quite a few friends. For example, Ding Lei of NetEase is his old friend. This has a great inspiration for Ma Huateng to embark on the road to entrepreneurship: "When we were drinking beer together, we were just wage earners. We still don't know the future. Ding Lei's success has inspired me, just go Nothing is impossible."

In his spare time, Ma Huateng also constantly solves software problems for his friend's company. The stock card that he and his friends have developed together has been selling well in the SEG electronics market. This made him not only famous in the circle, but also had considerable original accumulation. Coupled with more than 700,000 yuan earned in spare time stocks, Ma’s venture capital accumulated more than 1 million yuan. Moreover, because of the frequent use of foreign chat software chat on the Internet, Ma Huateng moved the idea of ​​developing Chinese chat software. The accumulation of this fund also allowed Ma Huateng to have the idea of ​​creating a Tencent company and becoming a Chinese Internet giant like Ding Lei.

In October 1998, Ma Huateng resigned, and then he founded Tencent. When deciding to do chat software, there are already two companies in China, and the products have more market reputation than Tencent. Ma Huateng did not think more, just thinking that he could make money quickly. Ma Huateng once wanted to sell his project to China.com, who said that he would buy it only after 30,000 users. Now, he is glad that he did not act rashly. Now, he often warns his peers: "To nugget on the Internet, you can't just see the immediate benefits. Many talented Internet talents often lose their long-term opportunities without paying attention to this."

Ding Lei, worth $10.2 billion, has been China's richest man for three consecutive years. A considerable number of people may not think of it. Ding Lei’s first bucket of gold, about 500,000 yuan, was mostly earned by writing hard software for 8 hours. With these hard-earned money, Ding Lei started the first step of his own business in a room of only 7 square meters.

Taking advantage of 8 hours will also give you a lot of unexpected gains. For example, one of the cadres of Liu Chuanzhi, Zhao Linghuan, president of Hony Capital, is also in the "8 hours away" and Liu Chuanjie's fate.

Zhao Linghuan graduated from the Physics Department of Nanjing University in 1984 and went to the United States to study in 1987. Former chairman and CEO of Infolio, Inc., VademLtd, USA, and vice president and general manager of USRobotics Inc. Under the introduction of Ma Xuezheng, he came to the old office building of Lenovo Group in the second half of 2001, where he and Liu Chuanzhi first shook hands and became part of Lenovo's "strategic advisor." Since then, almost every month, Zhao Linghuan flew to Beijing, dating Yang Yuanqing, Ma Xuezheng, and stayed in Beijing for a week to "develop a plan for the internationalization of Lenovo Group."

Liang Dong, the current vice president of Baidu, currently owns 120,000 shares of Baidu, worth about 10 million US dollars. His "windfall" is definitely "out of 8 hours." Liang Dong was originally the entertainment host of Phoenix TV. Later, because of an occasional opportunity, he met with Baidu’s senior officials and became a consultant to Baidu. After the labor contract with Phoenix Satellite TV expired, Liang Dong became the vice president of Baidu and got a 0.4% stake in the company. After Baidu's listing, Liang Dong quickly became rich.

Where Li Zhengdao really eats

Li Zhengdao’s main income comes from his part-time job, not his research work. In the traditional Chinese concept, scientists are very human, honest, and consider money as dirt. However, today, when the revolution does not forget to get rich, this traditional concept can be changed.

The famous physicist Li Zhengdao has two business cards, one is the title of "International Chinese Technology Industry and Commerce Association President" and the other is the staff of "Lehman Brothers Co., Ltd.". When Dr. Li Zhengdao handed the second business card to people, he often said: "This is the place where I really eat." The famous American Shibuya, just because of the part-time system, has become a holy place for global technology.

Currently, in China, using a free time to start a company is becoming an option for university professors. Li Weiwu, a professor at the School of Economics of Huazhong Agricultural University, although an ordinary master's tutor, is a well-known "wealth professor" in the eyes of students. Not only is the class very good, but also has the largest private company in China--Hubei Changsheng Biotechnology the company. At present, Li Weiwu's worth has reached 40 million yuan.

The poor university professor experienced the hardships of "tuberculosis" in youth and the bad luck brought to him by that special era. He also made him an economist with an advanced "money making" vision.

Li Weiwu found that there are a group of experts and professors around him who have strong research capabilities and inventions, but they are not industrialized in the laboratory. On the contrary, in the United States, university professors are proud of starting a company. So, in addition to teaching, he pondered about starting the company. Under his leadership, the company, founded by Stanford University and some colleges and universities, research institutes, professors and doctors in Wuhan, has developed a strong scientific and technological capability and operational capability. The Changsheng EM biological series products developed by them have pushed China's biotechnology development and application to a new stage.

It is said that this is a product that allows rice fields to grow only in long rice, and can make the cow dung piled up like a mountain without flying and smelling a little smell. The product is sold in 1000 regions of 11 provinces and cities in China in a short period of time, with an annual turnover of several hundred million yuan.

The process of Li Weiwu’s Nuggets is not going well. In addition to the difficulties in cash flow that have occurred before, the biggest blow came from his family. The wife who used to support him changed his attitude, worried that he would influence the teaching, the exhaustion of his body and the image of his school. Fame, future pensions may also be affected.

However, Li Weiwu is willing to take this risk. He served as the vice president of Wuhan University and the younger brother of the chairman of Wuhan Huasoft Group to help him solve most of the funding problems. At present, Li Weiwu personally owns 20% of the company's shares. "According to the stock market value of 10 yuan, I have 40 million yuan in assets after listing." Li Weiwu laughed.

"Money is a number, and it is important to change people's minds." Recalling the entrepreneurial experience of the past, Li Weiwu's biggest feeling is that "the things I learned in business are beyond imagination, and I have to deny myself many outdated things. Many people are afraid of risk." Worried about failure, not afraid to get out of the inherent mode of life, it will not be harvested."

Li Weiwu's bold eight-hour excavation not only made him a successful company, but his success was recognized by the school and his colleagues. His economics course is more popular with students.
