Reborn Entrepreneurial Giant

Crossing the Mongolian grassland to the border, this section of the road is not easy to walk. It's not that there is no road, but Qu Li also wants to see his "ant forest". Their afforestation speed in the northwest is slow in the early stage and will be slower in the later stage. Come on, 200 million trees have been planted now, and 100 million trees may be planted every year in the future.

Qu Li did not set an unattainable goal. Ant Forest, a subsidiary of Fanxing Fund, is more stable and more famous, and it is not deeply tied to the company.

Ahri's Ant Forest is definitely a good project, but it's a pity that it is too closely tied to Ahri. Especially after the Ant Financial incident, many people have doubts about this environmental protection project. Qu Li did not want to avoid suspicion, but mainly wanted to achieve the success of Fanxing Fund.

"Ant Forest", "Photovoltaic Ranch", "Seawater Rice" and "Quantum Communications" are all supported by Fanxing Fund, or are projects related to it. Galaxy Power is still its wholly-owned subsidiary. Domestic network users do not know what Fanxing Fund should do. Very few anymore.

The launch of Suzaku 3 was announced in advance, and many people knew about it. The gap with SpaceX is very obvious. It is also not leading in the country, so not many people pay attention. On the contrary, Ma Yun's retirement concert attracted more attention.

Yes, after Qu Li announced his "retirement", Ma Yun also announced her retirement from Ali and held a lively farewell party, which was quite eye-catching. Just like his "Gong Shou Dao" last year, it was also very popular.

However, some people still criticize such self-entertaining works on the Internet, trying to sow discord between Qu Li and Ma Yun, saying that "Gong Shoudao" has no artistic quality, and playing Qu Li's underwater dance "Dragon in the Waters" and "Luo Shen Shui Fu" "Kun" amazed the whole world...

Some people also talked about the overt and covert fight between the two. Ma Yun fulfilled her kung fu dream, and Qu Li performed a knife kick in the air during the New Year's Eve speech, and wanted to compete with Ma Yun to see who is more powerful.

These are naturally rumors, and Qu Li would not be so boring, but two of the most well-known entrepreneurs in China "retired" during the period of disruption, which always arouses people's imagination.

There are many articles commenting on the two of them on the Internet, all discussing who is better. This is not a problem. After all, Qu Li owns three Fortune 500 companies and has achieved success across multiple fields. But many people don't believe that this is Qu Li's ability.

"Have we overestimated Qu Li?" A question on Zhihu has caused a lot of discussion. Some people think that the success of Time Jumei is due to the joining of Lin Bing, and the success of Honor is due to the joining of Li Yinan. The two companies have their own technology. The core is what makes it successful.

"Someone has said: If a private entrepreneur starts dating female celebrities, then his company will not be far from bankruptcy. Why didn't Time Jumei and Glory go bankrupt at that time? Because Qu Li has not participated in the management of the company for a long time. He is more like An investor…”

"Qu Li's success is because he did the right thing at the right time. His personal ability cannot be said to be outstanding."

"What does a lucky man who made his fortune from gambling have to do?"

"A scumbag who won't even marry a lousy wife..."

"An orphan with a junior high school education..."

There are as many people as ever who hate Qu Li, but there are even more people who recognize him.

"A junior high school student who opened a store on Taobao not only used Taobao's traffic, but also brought traffic to Taobao; in the second year, he established a company, registered a brand trademark, stepped onto the central stage, and had a clear business model ; In the third year, he was invited by Bridgebus to attend the Apple IPhone launch conference in the United States, and introduced venture capital to establish an e-commerce platform, and also established Honor; in the fourth year, the company went public, and Honor mobile phones were sold in the United States; in the fifth year..."

"Ordinary people may not understand the horror of Qu Tianming. Several of our friends with entrepreneurial experience have discussed that Jumei's China-Taiwan thinking and system design cannot be imitated in the world. Qu Tianming has long been I have my own management philosophy.”

“I won’t talk about the process of Jumei transforming from a fast fashion website into a full-category e-commerce platform. Just say that their self-built Jumei Logistics has chosen to be open from the beginning. Now more than 60% of Jumei Logistics’ revenue comes from the platform. outside……"

"The development of Honor may be more illustrative of the problem. In the early days of its development, Honor had no money to produce mobile phones. It benefited from the help of Lehman Brothers to complete the production and sales of Honor G1. However, the bankruptcy of the company's major shareholder Lehman Brothers did not affect Honor's development. develop……"

"If Honor's lack of money in the early days was not obvious, then supply chain problems directly affected subsequent development. First, the chip supply from Texas Instruments was not timely, which made Qu Li directly bind Qualcomm to cooperate until now; secondly, the screen, everyone Everyone knows that Samsung has cut off supply of AMOLED screens, and Honor has spent tens of billions to support BOE.”

"This is what everyone can see, but what you can't see is the money and effort to support supply chain companies. Now AAC Technologies, Sunny Optical, Lens Glass, Luxshare Precision, Biradi Electronics and other companies have received early support Thanks to Honor’s financial and technical support…”

“Although Honor setting KPIs for cats in the factory is a joke, the high standards and strict requirements from the beginning have undoubtedly promoted the progress of the entire industry. It is said that Qu Li’s attempts in the supply chain did not agree with another founder. so……"

"Another founder of Honor disagreed with Qu Li on product development, so his rights have been restricted these years. What does Qu Li want? Klun smart voice assistant, tablets, drones, Pentax cameras, smart watches, true wireless Bluetooth earphone……"

"Not to mention the patents. Honor was founded less than two years ago and had a serious shortage of cash flow. He was able to spend money to buy professional and patent licenses from Nortel Networks and acquire a large number of 3/4G patents during the financial crisis. There are also Motorola, which I almost acquired..."

"The other is self-developed chips and operating systems..."

"Glory's success seems to have been without any setbacks, but those who have been in business know how many difficulties they have to overcome behind the scenes. If I had to describe Qu Liqu Tianming in one sentence, it would probably be: Those who are good at fighting have no great military exploits! "

Not only stranger netizens praised Qu Li, but also an entrepreneur who failed to start a business and was about to go bankrupt. He claimed to be a high-end version of Qu Li. Apple was his subsidiary. Mrs. Luo, who had made the best smartphone in the Eastern Hemisphere, also vented her anger. He complained as if: "They are all people that even Qu Li doesn't like, and they can't even do one percent of what he does."

"Qu Tianming's understanding of business management and products, including his strategic planning capabilities, are top-notch in the world..."

Perhaps unwilling to accept her own failure, Mrs. Luo took the initiative to praise Qu Li and Honor, saying that in the global market, Apple and Honor are the first, followed by Samsung and Chrysanthemum, and the rest belong to others...

There were many controversies caused by the retirement of Qu Li and Ma Yun, and not many were widely recognized. However, Qu Tianming's evaluation of "Those who are good at fighting have no great military exploits" have remained in the hearts of many people. Looking back and re-verifying, how did Time Gather Beauty succeed? It seems that they all achieved achievements that shocked the Chinese people inadvertently, right?

Think about Jumei and Juhuasuan, Shopee and Shopify, Jumei Logistics and Tongda Network, cloud computing and search, even Xiangyun’s market value exceeds 100 billion softmei coins, and it has unknowingly become the number one in the domestic clothing industry. , may be the third largest sports brand in the world after Adidas and Nike.

Then there is the future. Why is it that no one is surprised at the success of this company?
