Near graduation, kazuo inamori was frustrated on the road to employment, and even came up with the idea of "simply being a literate gangster", and put it into action, and ran to the door of Woody Sakura Group Office, a triad organization on the planetarium road in Kagoshima City for a long time.
Later, at the suggestion of Professor Takeshita, he joined Song Feng Industry, an insulating porcelain company in Kyoto at that time.
However, the road to employment is not smooth. Ceramic art belongs to the field of inorganic chemistry, and kazuo inamori's major is organic chemistry.
In order to enter the Song Feng industry, the graduation thesis must be related to ceramics. With the help of Professor Takeshita, Professor Teru Shimada Shinji, majoring in inorganic chemistry, directed his graduation thesis. I spent less than half a year studying my field outside my major and writing a thesis. However, kazuo inamori did it. After a lot of hardships, his graduation thesis "Basic Research on Burying" became the most highly appraised one that year. The time is 60 years.
Kazuo inamori entered Song Feng industry with excellent papers. He was taken to the dormitory when he reported to the company with infinite expectation. At that time, kazuo inamori looked at the dilapidated dormitory, and her dream was shattered. Suddenly, he came back to reality.
In fact, kazuo inamori didn't know that this well-known company at that time, once brilliant, had already faded, and went through debt, restructuring and teetering.
Kazuo inamori was assigned to the research department to study forsterite, a high-frequency insulating material in special ceramics.
Kazuo inamori always takes the initiative to look for and undertake work, and at the same time gets help from people around him. Hard work pays off, and forsterite ceramic materials are successfully developed. This is the first time that Japan has synthesized a practical forsterite material, which can be used to make U-shaped insulators with great commercial value at that time. This is the summer of 1956. Kazuo inamori is 24 years old, in the prime of life.
Panasonic heard that forsterite ceramic materials were successfully synthesized, and immediately placed an order, and Song Feng Industry officially began to produce U-shaped insulators.
With the development of technology, the accuracy and efficiency of U-shaped insulators have been improved, and orders are constantly coming. Kazuo inamori's team's department became the only profitable department of Song Feng Industrial Company, which suffered long-term losses.
1956165438+10. In October, kazuo inamori and others separated from the research section and established the Special Magnetic Department. Kazuo inamori also became a young leader in charge of the special magnetic department.
At that time, with the rapid development of TV market, the demand for U-shaped insulators was increasing, which was in short supply. Kazuo inamori broke through many difficulties and personally designed and commissioned Donghai High Thermal Industry Company to make an electric tunnel furnace instead of a "debugging furnace", which truly realized the mass production of U-shaped insulators, and the special magnetic system was also growing. This is 1957.
Under the leadership of kazuo inamori, the special magnetic department has been growing and made great achievements, which has brought new hope to Song Feng Industrial Company, which has suffered losses for many years, and won high praise from the company. At the same time, many department leaders condemned kazuo inamori as "an arrogant guy" and "kazuo inamori's special magnetic department is simply a special force".
1957 In May, due to the differences between employers and employees on the issues of wage increase and layoffs, Song Feng Industrial went on a large-scale strike. In order not to bring trouble to customers, kazuo inamori opposed the strike and tried every means to secretly organize production and deliver goods to customers.
1in June, 957, the strike ended, and Song Feng industry also welcomed a new president and a new technology minister, that is, kazuo inamori's immediate superior.
Because of the mistake of the new technology minister, the company's performance declined. In the face of the company's predicament, kazuo inamori argued that "the field of special ceramics is bound to grow rapidly. We must adjust the system in time, seize the opportunity to make more money, and turn losses into profits in order to revitalize the company." However, kazuo inamori's appeal was not taken seriously, but with the help of various forces, kazuo inamori was assigned a new R&D task. Later, he had an argument with his boss and resigned angrily.
Immediately, kazuo inamori declined the retention of Song Feng's industry and Pakistani high-paying employment.
When kazuo inamori resigned, the Minister of Technology boldly said that kazuo inamori's work could be completely replaced by other outstanding talents, but in fact no one could replace it at all. Five years later, Song Feng industries declared bankruptcy.
Kazuo inamori and several colleagues are determined to set up a new special ceramics company, which has won the full support of Xijiang Branch.
1959 65438+1October 6th, the preparatory work for the new company was officially started. It was proposed by President Miyagi and named "Kyoto Ceramics".
1 959 On April1day, a commemorative ceremony for the establishment of the company was held in the rented office building atNo.112, Xijing District, Kyoto Prefecture. The new company * * *1/cadre, newly recruited junior high school graduates 1 1 male, 6 female, ***28.
Kyocera, set sail!
On the night after the company's anniversary, all employees gathered in a Chinese restaurant near Nijo Castle, Kawahara-CHO for a celebration banquet. During the dinner, kazuo inamori suddenly stood up and made a speech: "Now, we must strive for the first place in Haramachi! Later, it became the first in Xijing, the first in Zhongjing District, the first in Kyoto and the first in Japan. In the end, of course, we must become the world's number one! "
According to Kobayashi (former director of Kyocera), kazuo inamori has been repeating the following sentence:
"Although there is a saying called" implementation without words ",I think it is better to" implement ". Because, if you don't put it into practice, people around you won't know your determination, so you leave yourself a way out. However, once' words must be done', it must be completed. "
"Japan must be the first, and then the world first!" This sentence is not the company's development blueprint or strategy, but kazuo inamori insisted on saying this dream.
Dreams drive reality!
