Shi Yongqing: The Real Estate Industry

Shi Yongqing was born in Shanghai. He moved to Hongkong with his parents at the age of three. After a hard life, he grew from a migrant worker to the chairman of the board of directors of Zhongyuan group.

Zhongyuan group, the largest real estate agent in China, occupies the absolute share of the real estate agency market not only in Hongkong but also in the mainland.

The group's business includes real estate agents, measurement and valuation, personnel consultants, data integration and map software.

In 1978, Shi Yongqing and his close friend Wang Wenyan each invested 5000 yuan in Hong Kong dollars, from two people sharing a rental desk to a large enterprise now sitting on about one billion assets, which is called "the deification of entrepreneurship".

As the cause continues to grow, the two of them eventually split up because of their different ideas.

After 1992, Wang Wenyan faded away from management and Shi Yongqing was in charge of Central Plains.

With the concept of "govern by doing nothing", the company's business has been developing rapidly. Even in the worst years of Hongkong's real estate market, the company maintained a strong growth momentum.

In 2001, Shi Yongqing was outstanding. He bought the third largest real estate agency of Hongkong, which was on the verge of bankruptcy, "Li Jia Ge", and faced with a continuous collapse. Shi Yongqing's big move made many people worried about it.

However, the unique business philosophy and keen market judgement made the "Li Jia Ge" achieve profitability in second years.

For a moment, Shi Yongqing's wonderful work became a good conversation in the industry.

On the weekdays, Shi Yongqing is good at charity and has a high reputation and reputation in Hongkong society.

He is keen on social services. He is currently a member of Oxfam Hongkong, chairman of the board of the Hongkong Symphony Orchestra and members of the Housing Committee of the Hongkong Housing Authority.

They often teach lectures, host radio programs and write column columns in Colleges and universities.

It is worth mentioning that his humorous language and unique philosophy of life in radio helped many Hongkong people get rid of the puzzled living situation and find a happy life again.

Shi Yongqing saw "wealth life". "After the reform and opening up, Chinese people pursued a lot of wealth. In fact, wealth is not a goal of life, but a part of resources to achieve life goals. I feel that after having wealth, life choices can be much more, so pursuing wealth is not a bad thing in itself, but it must be taken for granted."
