The student was admitted to Peking University with excellent results, but when he was about to enter school, he was stumped by a few dollars' travel expenses. Good-hearted people in the same village helped him one after another, and collected enough money for his classmates 10 yuan. Unexpectedly, decades later, the students became billionaires, gave a villa to every household in the village, and led them to raise pigs and start businesses together, with an annual income of at least 200,000 yuan.
He is Mr. Chen from Zhanjiang, Guangdong, a former high flyers of Peking University and now a billionaire.
1. Without the toll, the villagers collected 65,438 yuan for Mr. Chen.
Mr. Chen was born in Guanhu Village, Suicheng Town, Suixi County, Zhanjiang City, Guangdong Province. His family conditions are not rich. He was still 12 years old, and his father left this house forever because of an accident.
After his father died, Chen Sheng, his brother, sister and mother lived alone, and there were only a few acres of thin land at home. It is difficult to support this family only by farming income, so the mother thought of a good way: let Chen Sheng, who has the best academic performance, continue to study, and other children drop out of school to earn money to support their families.
It was the sacrifice made by the whole family that planted a seed for Bobby Chen's future efforts. He secretly vowed that "he must be admitted to a famous university in the future and let his family live a good life."
Since junior high school, Mr. Chen's grades have been among the best, and his name can be heard at every opening ceremony. He always won the first prize in the competition, and his certificate was taken home to his mother, who laughed to tears.
When I was in high school, the class teacher had begun to ensure that "it is very likely that Mr. Chen will be admitted to Tsinghua Peking University".
1980, 18-year-old Bobby Chen took the college entrance examination, and everyone was worried. It was not until the results of the college entrance examination came out that everyone's hanging hearts were finally put down. Bobby Chen lived up to expectations and was admitted to Peking University.
There is a custom in the village that if someone's children are admitted to a famous university or have a promising career, the villagers will spontaneously bring some gifts to congratulate them.
Bobby Chen was admitted to one of the best universities in China, which is naturally the most exciting news in the village. Before long, the villagers came to Chen Sheng's home just like posting.
Some of them are holding two Jin of pork, some are holding a box of eggs, and some are holding sugar, fruit and snacks. These gifts are piled up on the table in Mr. Chen's room, which is almost impossible to pile up.
But Bobby Chen's mother is not happy at all when she looks at these presents. She doesn't lack these things at all. Seeing that Chen Sheng is about to enter school, what she lacks is money to buy her son a plane ticket from Guangdong to Beijing.
Strangely, in Guanhu Village where Mr. Chen lives, almost all the villagers are surnamed Chen. Several old people once said, "In fact, all the people in the village are relatives and friends, all descendants of Mr. Zu."
Because of this, the villagers did not turn a blind eye to Chen Sheng's difficulties. The next day, they gathered at Chen Sheng's house again, each with a few cents in his hand, which was just stuffed into Chen Sheng's mother's hand.
They always collected 10 yuan for Bobby Chen. At that time, there was enough money for Chen Sheng to buy tickets for school, and there were still a few dollars left as living expenses for the first few months.
At that time, the villagers didn't know, "A few decades later, Teacher Chen gave them a luxury villa in return."
Second, I graduated from Peking University and became a rich man.
After entering the campus of Peking University, the pressure on Bobby Chen gradually increased, and the students around him worked harder and harder, and soon Bobby Chen was left behind.
However, as the saying goes, the greater the pressure, the greater the motivation.
Not to be outdone, Mr. Chen has been more diligent and inspirational since then, and has achieved the top spot in his achievements through hard work.
At the same time, he found a key problem, "the gap between people is often not in grades, but in horizons."
"Vision will affect a person's pattern, thus affecting his future development and height".
After understanding this, Mr. Chen no longer spends all his time on study, but takes part of his time to start looking for business opportunities in the society.
He will carefully observe which industries are developing, which industries have prospects and advantages, and what kind of talents these industries need.
Since junior year, Mr. Chen has been aiming at these industries, learning and exercising the ability to match these industries.
By the time of his senior year, Mr. Chen had greatly surpassed others in academic performance and social skills.
1984, Teacher Chen graduated from Peking University and went back to Guangzhou to find an iron rice bowl. This job is undoubtedly the envy of the villagers. It is said that Bobby Chen's life took off from now on, but to everyone's surprise, Bobby Chen resolutely resigned after two years without working.
The villagers don't understand, but Mr. Chen has paved the way for a more brilliant life in the future.
During that time, the whole country was in the period of reform and opening up. As an eastern city, Guangzhou was the first to be blown into the spring breeze of reform and opening up.
Mr. Chen happened to find that selling things in Guangzhou was much higher than farming for one year, and some people even started to open factories, and their income doubled in just a few years.
Bobby Chen, who is rich in social skills, can naturally seize opportunities better than others. After quitting his job as an iron rice bowl, he immediately devoted himself to foreign trade and planting, especially the foreign trade that was in full swing at that time. Bobby Chen can harvest 1 barrel of gold in his life in just over a year, earning hundreds of thousands.
Previously, the villagers were still regretting Chen Sheng's resignation. With such achievements, everyone gave Bobby Chen a thumbs-up sign.
1993, Bobby Chen is worth millions, but he doesn't want to stop there. Soon, he devoted himself to the promising real estate industry at that time. Compared with before, this industry undoubtedly has more room for display. In just a few years, the real estate company jointly established by Bobby Chen and others has doubled its profits.
Three years later, Mr. Chen has become a multi-millionaire and the most promising person in the village.
However, Mr. Chen's dream goes far beyond this.
When the real estate was in full swing, Mr. Chen had a new dream, "building his own brand products."
1997 one day, Bobby Chen accidentally discovered that the market for beverages was growing, especially when meeting people or talking about projects. Since then, Bobby Chen decided to create a brand-name beverage.
However, when he started, Mr. Chen discovered that there was no shortage of ordinary drinks in the market, but only some trendy drinks with good taste and creativity.
That day, Mr. Chen bought a bottle of Sprite from the supermarket and began to study it. After studying for a few minutes, he suddenly thought, "What kind of experience would it be if you added some vinegar to Sprite?"
Then I bought a bottle of vinegar and added it to Sprite little by little. Every time you add it to a certain amount, you should taste it and taste it.
The next day, Mr. Chen has made a decision to "make a drink called fruit vinegar".
At the beginning, Mr. Chen took out all his savings to open a factory, hired employees and began to produce drinks. In less than half a month, he produced China's first 1 vinegar-soaked beverage. Although he can't guarantee the future sales of drinks, he has given drinks a very famous name, "Tiandi No.1".
To Mr. Chen's delight, the drinks he produced were very popular as soon as they went on the market because of their novelty and special taste, and by the third month, the sales reached 20 million.
When his career was brilliant and his life reached its peak, Mr. Chen had a new plan in his heart, "using his own ability to repay the 10 yuan toll collected by his fellow villagers."
Give each villager a luxury villa and wait for them to raise pigs and start a business.
In recent years, Mr. Chen has been engaged in many industries, covering almost all aspects, but now he has decided to invest in a more grounded industry. Considering that the villagers are ordinary farmers, the more grounded the industry, the more capable the villagers are.
During that time, it happened that a classmate in Bobby Chen quit his high-paying job and went back to his hometown to raise pigs and start a business. Knowing that he was interested, Bobby Chen went to visit this classmate.
Through a period of observation and understanding, Mr. Chen found that raising pigs is indeed an opportunity.
Because those years were a period of continuous improvement of people's living standards, many families were reluctant to buy meat in the past, but now with the increase of income, almost all of them can't live without meat.
As one of the most common meats, pork is in great demand. In the process of raising pigs, efforts can be made in feed, breeding environment, daily care and pork quality. Teacher Chen believes that "raising pigs and starting a business is a choice with great development space and prospects".
Soon, Bobby Chen turned to the pig industry. From building a pigsty to selecting piglets and feeding them, Chen Sheng does it himself. His goal is to work hard on the quality of pork and specialize in processing some high-end pork.
Very similar to the previous naming method, Mr. Chen gave his own pork a very famous name, "Tuzhu No.1".
I must say, where there is a will, there is a way. Bobby Chen has been working in the front line. Since graduating from college, Bobby Chen has come into contact with many industries, and almost every industry has been very successful.
By 20 18, the local pork sales in Bobby Chen has reached 1800 million, and the value of Bobby Chen has reached over 10 billion.
One night, in Mr. Chen's mind, the picture of villagers collecting 10 yuan tolls for him reappeared. From that day on, he decided to repay the villagers.
On the day of 20 1 1, Mr. Chen made a plan of "investing hundreds of millions of yuan to build a luxury villa for every household in the village".
He soon found a builder and began to build this big project. Moreover, he also discussed the internal structure and pattern of the villa with the villagers and built it according to their wishes.
There are more than 0/70 households in the village/kloc, and Mr. Chen is going to build more than 0/70 villas in/kloc. Total * * * designed three phases, each phase is also equipped with a corresponding leisure park and activity square, and fitness equipment is installed in the square for villagers to use.
This big project took several years to complete, and then it took several months to decorate, but the villagers finally got their wish and moved into the big villa.
However, there was an episode in the middle.
At that time, when Mr. Chen made the plan, he considered it according to the current number of people in the village. But in rural areas, sons must live separately from their parents after marriage. As a result, the number of villas is obviously not enough.
Mr. Chen soon realized this, so he built dozens of villas next to it for people who ran away from home.
When the villagers moved to the villa one after another, Mr. Chen had already started another plan, "taking the villagers to raise pigs and start a business."
He invested millions to buy an open space next to the village, and then asked workers to start repairing pigsty. The scale of pigsty is also large and small. Whoever is big and has the energy will make the pigsty bigger.
Later, it was Mr. Chen who helped pick the piglets. He knew that it was not easy for the villagers and didn't want them to lose money in any link.
After everything was ready, Mr. Chen made a final promise. He told the villagers, "No matter how the pork price fluctuates in the future, he will guarantee to give the villagers a guaranteed price and never let the villagers suffer."
Soon, the whole village had their own careers, and with the help of teacher Chen, they realized an annual income of 200,000 yuan.
This village is very famous now. Each family lives in a luxury villa, and each family has its own pig shed. The income is considerable, and life is thriving. Many people will come here to visit this village, listen to the stories of the villagers in recent years, and more importantly, want to see the elegant demeanor of Bobby Chen.
Mr. Chen is a grateful person and an example for us to learn.
