Liu Lirong, a native of Yiyang, Hunan Province, is the chairman and president of Jinli Communication Group, with a net worth of 65.438+0.5 billion yuan. The average monthly sales volume of mobile phones is 450,000, the annual sales volume exceeds 5 million, and the group's annual profit exceeds 300 million. Cyrus, a native of Xinhua, Hunan, a classmate of Liu Lirong University, is now a technician in a company in Shanghai, with a monthly income of 5,000 yuan.

Cyrus and Liu Lirong used to be the best college classmates, but also brothers in distress who broke into Guangdong, shared a dormitory and starved together when they had no money. However, after 10 years, why did these two like-minded brothers in trouble end up like this? Recently, the author interviewed Cyrus and found the profound reason from his reflection …

At the age of four, what I hate most is that I like to make a mountain out of a molehill. Cyrus once hated that Liu Lirong, a college classmate, always took small things too seriously, but he never imagined that it was this difference that made Liu Lirong a big boss with a net worth of 654.38+0.5 billion, and he was still an ordinary employee with a monthly salary of only 5,000 yuan!

Cyrus is from Xinhua County, Hunan Province. 1September, 990, admitted to Changsha Central South University of Technology. I went back to the dormitory after completing the registration procedure that day and saw a classmate playing Go alone. He said, "Brother, do we need two sets?" The classmate agreed and chatted with him while playing chess. Through conversation, Cyrus learned that this new classmate is Liu Lirong, who comes from Yiyang rural area. That afternoon, they played three games, and Cyrus won easily.

Since then, they often play chess and chat in the same dormitory after school. At first, Li Sheng was the overlord of chess, while Liu Lirong never won. However, Liu Lirong thinks seriously every time he plays chess, but Cyrus thinks that playing chess is just killing time and always being careless. After such a semester, Liu Lirong's chess skill is actually much higher than Li Sheng's, and he can have three children. Cyrus was puzzled and asked, "How did you make such rapid progress?" Liu Lirong said, "If you don't think at all when playing chess, how can you make progress ..."

In the second semester of sophomore year, in order to earn living expenses, Liu Lirong proposed to use the time after evening self-study to sell milk and bread in boys' dormitories. The two men work together. Cyrus is responsible for the sales of three or four boys' dormitories, and Liu Lirong is responsible for five or six dormitories. At first, they earned six or seven yuan a night, but soon Liu Lirong earned more and more money, while Cyrus earned less and less. Cyrus was unconvinced, but after they changed the dormitory, Liu Lirong still earned seven or eight dollars more every night, while Cyrus still earned less and less. One day, when Liu Lirong saw Cyrus wearing a sweaty sweatshirt and preparing to go out with a food box in his hand, he suddenly realized, "You are too careless about details. Who dares to buy your food when you are so dirty? " Cyrus listened to Liu Lirong's advice and washed himself before going out every night. After a while, his "business" gradually improved.

After this incident, Cyrus somewhat admired Liu Lirong's attention to detail. After that, Cyrus studied very hard and won the first-class scholarship in 800 yuan in his junior year. However, Liu Lirong likes to study Weiqi and read extracurricular books on economic management, but his academic performance is only average. But what Li Sheng didn't expect was that although Liu Lirong's professional achievements were not outstanding, there were three units vying for Liu Lirong who filled out the student recommendation form meticulously. In the end, Liu Lirong chose to go to Tianjin Nonferrous Metals Research Institute, while Cyrus, who had excellent academic performance, put his work into practice in Changsha Qiandong Locomotive Works.

Although they are separated, they still keep in touch frequently. Cyrus felt that Liu Lirong must be very satisfied with being assigned to this research unit. Unexpectedly, one day in March of 1995, Liu Lirong came to Changsha to find Cyrus and said, "Brother, I have left my job without pay and am going to Guangdong. You come with me! Otherwise, with the growth of age, time will dilute my entrepreneurial passion, and then I will have no enterprise ... "Cyrus was so excited that he immediately agreed to go to Guangdong together.

The next day, Cyrus went through the formalities of leaving without pay. On March 30th, 1995, two old friends got on the southbound train. ...

Depressed: With two subordinates in Guangzhou, I can only "almost" do things. Half a month has passed, but I have not found a suitable job. Liu Lirong suggested going to Zhongshan. Who knows that after a week in Zhongshan, they only have two yuan left and have not found a job yet.

One day, they went to Zhongshan Xiaobawang Electronic Intelligent Technology Company to apply for technicians. Before going out, Cyrus accidentally knocked over the glass and soaked their resumes. They put their resumes in front of the electric fan and blew them. Cyrus put them and other things in his bag and repeatedly urged Liu Lirong to go. However, Liu Lirong put his resume in a book, put his hands on his chest and carefully flattened it before going out. Cyrus couldn't help complaining: "You are really muddling along!"

When I arrived at the recruitment site of Xiaobawang Company, the vice president in charge of recruitment was very satisfied with their good professional knowledge after talking. However, when they handed in their resumes, Cyrus's resume was not only covered with water stains, but also crumpled in the bag and scratched by the key. The vice president frowned. In the afternoon, Liu Lirong was told to go for an interview, and the application was successful. Cyrus, who didn't get the interview, cried! Liu Lirong said, "Let's ask!" When they asked, the vice president immediately asked Cyrus, "You can't even keep your resume well. How can I trust your ability to work? " Liu Lirong dared to say, "He is my classmate, and his major is better than mine. Since you believe me, you should also believe him ... "Cyrus got an interview. Fortunately, he did well in the interview, and Cyrus was finally hired as a technician by Little Overlord Company like Liu Lirong.

After work, they shared a dormitory, went to work together, ate together, smoked a pack of double happiness cigarettes for 7 yuan, and even pooled their money to buy a Romon suit to wear in turn, helping each other at work. At the end of June, 1995, the technical director asked them to design a scheme independently. With excellent professional knowledge, Li Sheng finished it in one night. The next morning, he had a good sleep in the dormitory. When he walked into the office in the afternoon, he found that Liu Lirong's eyes were bloodshot and he was still looking for information. He said, "You still love to dawdle! Let me help you! " With his help, Liu Lirong also finished the design this afternoon. Cyrus said, "That's enough. Let's have a rest." Say that finish, he went back to the dormitory to sleep.

After Cyrus left, Liu Lirong, who didn't sleep for two days and one night, checked the program several times. Even though he thought there were no flaws, he copied the picture again until he was satisfied. The next day, the technical director looked at the drawings and said, "Judging from the drawings you handed in, Xiao Li's professional foundation is solid, but the drawings are sloppy and messy, and he is too hasty in his work;" Xiao Liu's paintings are meticulous, practical and reassuring ... "Cyrus thought unconvinced: If you can understand the drawings, why do you have to clean them? What a picky person!

Soon, for the convenience of drawing, the technical department is going to replace a new computer, and they need to sign the report. After writing the report, Leader Li signed his name with a pen. Liu Lirong reminded: "Your signature is so big, where can you write the name of the leader? Write another report. " Cyrus said, "Are you making a mountain out of a molehill? Can't they just sign it? "

1995 10 at the end of the year, when a lathe in the technical department was started, the landing gear could not be retracted, which made it impossible to operate. The vice president in charge of technology found that the bolts on the landing gear had not been pulled out. After troubleshooting, Liu Lirong wrote a standard operating specification and posted it on the machine. Not only did he write clearly not to forget to pull out the bolt, but he also wrote clearly how to pull out the bolt, step back after pulling it out and put it where. Cyrus said dismissively, "you this is not redundant? Everyone has learned the lesson and should remember it. " However, when the vice principal came to inspect the work, he saw this note and said happily, "Well written. If everyone leaves a note like you, new employees can avoid making the same mistake. "

Seeing that Liu Lirong was so devoted to his work, Cyrus still disdained to think: You will kill yourself, and you will get the same salary as me. Why bother? However, in June 1996 1 1, after the head of the technical department resigned, the company leaders thought that Liu Lirong was meticulous and handled things with few mistakes, so they promoted Liu Lirong, whose professional knowledge was inferior to that of Cyrus, as the technical director, and gave Cyrus a symbolic salary increase of 200 yuan.

In order to encourage Liu Lirong, the company gave him a house with two bedrooms and one living room. On the day of moving for him, Li Sheng was very depressed: How did he become my boss after only two years in the company?

Now his net worth is 65.438+0.5 billion, and my monthly salary is 5,000.

1April, 1998, Yang Minggui, vice president of Xiaobawang Company, went to Dongguan to set up Gionee Digital Technology Co., Ltd. by himself. He brought Liu Lirong, whom he had always admired, to Dongguan as the vice president. On the recommendation of Liu Lirong, Yang Minggui also brought Cyrus to Dongguan as the technical director.

Since Cyrus became the technical director of the new company, his job has become much easier. So he often goes to local bars and foot washing city for entertainment at night. One Saturday after work, Liu Lirong stopped him and said, "Brother, I haven't played chess for a long time. Shall we play a few games? " At 9 o'clock in the evening, while they were playing chess, Liu Lirong received a phone call from a client. He immediately said, "Let's call it a night. I have to go to Guangzhou to meet an important client ... "Cyrus said inexplicably," You have to meet someone in Guangzhou so late? No need! " However, Liu Lirong said, "If I pick him up, I will satisfy my customers in this small detail and bring benefits to the company. What reason do I have not to do it? "

In March 2000, when Liu Lirong checked the production process report written by Cyrus, he found that the report actually-global brand network-wrote 200 yuan as 2 million yuan. He said angrily, "How can you be so careless? If I don't find out, who will bear the responsibility? Work should not be sloppy. Think about it. If you are the boss, can you trust the employees who make such mistakes? "

Although Cyrus nodded in agreement with Liu Lirong, his heart still disagreed. One night in May 2000, when Liu Lirong was playing chess with Cyrus, he called the company clerk and repeatedly told him: "When you go to Guangzhou from Dongguan, you must buy him a ticket on the right window so that he can see the Phoenix Mountain in the car; If he goes to Shenzhen, you have to buy him a ticket on the left window ... "Cyrus asked inexplicably," Who are you receiving, such a mother-in-law? " Liu Lirong said: "Yang Zong of Taiwan Province Shunxiang Company prefers to go out by train rather than by car. So he can enjoy the scenery of Phoenix Mountain all the way. " Cyrus smiled and said, "Are you tired of keeping these little things in your heart?" What he didn't expect was that this small matter brought 20 million yuan of business to the company.

It turned out that four months later, Yang Zong of Taiwan Province asked this question when chatting with Liu Lirong. Liu Lirong said, "When the bus goes to Guangzhou, the Phoenix Mountain is on your right. When the bus goes to Shenzhen, Phoenix Mountain is on your left. I think you must like to see the scenery of Phoenix Mountain on the road, so I bought you different tickets. " Yang Zong was deeply moved and said, "I can't believe you pay so much attention to details. Working with you can make me feel at ease! " Yang Zong immediately handed over the 20 million yuan order that had been decided to be handed over to other companies to Liu Lirong. Cyrus was shocked when he heard about it!

200 1 10, Zheng Jin Digital Company developed into a group company, and Liu Lirong was promoted to vice president of the group company. But soon, Cyrus brought huge losses to the company: after the production department produced samples according to the newly developed molds of the technical department, it found that there were problems with the mold design. The parts that should have been on the right were designed to the left, and a production line worth more than 4 million was completely scrapped. When the chairman was informed, he flew into a rage and made a disciplinary decision to cancel the year-end bonus of all employees in the technical department and directly dismiss Cyrus, the person in charge of the accident. Liu Lirong is busy pleading with the chairman. Although the chairman finally revoked his authorization, he still removed Cyrus from his post and made him an ordinary technician.

A few days later, Cyrus found Liu Lirong and said, "I know you are good to me, but I can't hold you back. I'd better leave the company ... "It's hard for Liu Lirong to retain talents by force. After leaving Zheng Jin Digital Company, Cyrus found a job in technology development in Li Xing Electronics Company in Humen Town.

One day in July 2002, Cyrus and Liu Lirong met in Humen Town. Liu Lirong told Cyrus that he was going to resign and raise money to set up his own communication equipment company, and invited Cyrus to cooperate with him, but Cyrus shook his head and said, "I have bought a house and don't want to run around any more ..."

Since then, Liu Lirong has recruited and founded Gionee Communication Co., Ltd. Seven years later, Cyrus is still just a technician, still smoking a pack of double happiness cigarettes from 7 yuan and squeezing the bus to and from work; Liu Lironggui, president of Gionee Group, became a billionaire driving a Mercedes-Benz 600 sedan.

In March 2009, Li Xing Electronics Company went bankrupt due to the financial storm-a global brand network-and Cyrus had to find another job in Shenzhen. At this time, Liu Lirong's Gionee Group has become an important brand of domestic mobile phone enterprises, and his own net worth is 65.438+0.5 billion. Cyrus thought about asking his old friend Liu Lirong to help him find a job, but he felt embarrassed to ask. In September 2009, he found a new job in an electronics subsidiary in Shanghai with a monthly salary of 5,000 yuan.

Cyrus reflected in an interview: "In the past, I always felt that it was an accident and luck that Liu Lirong's status soared and its career flourished; I understand now that he is making progress because he pays attention to details in everything. Details determine fate! "

Details determine fate, and Cyrus' reflection is really reasonable! Whether we can pay attention to details in our life or work will definitely affect each of us. When I was young, my partner with the same height might only be one millimeter taller than myself every month, and the gap was not noticeable. But in ten or eight years, he may grow into a giant, but he will be a dwarf himself. Liu Lirong's success is definitely due to his many advantages, but his attention to details is definitely an important reason for winning every step of his life. Because paying attention to details is not only a habit, but also an advanced professional spirit, which can lead you to continuously improve your personality and ability and step by step to success! Liu Lirong's successful experience is worth learning and thinking for every newcomer in the workplace!

I wonder if this is what you need?
