The Most Successful Entrepreneurs In China!

It is difficult for a man and a woman to spend 12 years as a husband and wife. In the 12 years, two people not only have to make a living in the evening, but also have a partnership to do business in the daytime. This is really a difficult task. In a short span of 12 years, it is hard for a couple to turn into a billion rich.

But the 43 year old Pan Shiyi and Zhang Xin, 42, have stepped on these difficulties.

At 9:30 a.m. on 2007 October 8th, SOHO China (Hongkong exchange code: 410) was officially listed on the main board of Hongkong stock exchange.

The first day of listing opened at HK $10.10, closing at HK $9.55, a rise of 15.06% over the issue price of HK $8.30.

At the closing price of the day, SOHO China's total market capitalization has reached HK $47 billion 700 million, and Pan Shiyi's worth has soared to HK $35 billion, becoming China's richest couple.

When the "China pan" with a black mirror frame and a "American Zhang" with a yellow hair were picked up, and after 12 years of intense running in and collision, finally, the young couple of the world were ready to start a new boom in husband and wife business starting up in the Hongkong stock exchange.

In the "husband and wife" enterprises, the husband and wife are usually dominated by men, and the woman acts as a good wife.

For example, Wong Kwong Yu of Gome and his wife, cuckoo.

Cuckoo graduated from University of Science and Technology Beijing and worked as a loan officer at Bank of China.

In 1993, Wong Kwong Yu met with azalea because of his working relationship.

That year, Wong Kwong Yu just broke up with big brother Huang Junqin and was at the critical turning point of his career.

Du Juan, who is beautiful, capable, and has a good educational background and working unit, undoubtedly makes young Wong Kwong Yu heartfelt. But Wong Kwong Yu, who has not graduated from junior high school, has a bright mind and enterprising spirit. Du Juan also has to look at it.

In 1996, Wong Kwong Yu and Du Juan finally "integrated".

In 1999, Du Juan resigned from Bank of China and threw himself into Yu Zheng's fast developing Gome.

She has long served as executive director of Gome, a listed company, manages Wong Kwong Yu's business in Hongkong, and is also vice president of Peng run investment, which is mainly responsible for overseas business and acquisitions of the group.

In March 20, 2007, Bell Sten Commercial Bank of Peng run investment group and private equity fund signed a memorandum of understanding, setting up a joint investment fund with a ceiling of 500 million dollars to jointly invest in Chinese retail enterprises.

The direct trader in this major battle is Wong Kwong Yu's wife, cuckoo.

At the signing site of the memorandum, the cuckoo beside Wong Kwong Yu looks quite dazzling. She speaks fluent English and exchanges ideas with her American partners swiftly.

There are also many phenomena of "Yin Sheng Yang Yang" in the "husband and wife" enterprises.

At a trade meeting, Zhang Yin met his later husband, Liu Mingzhong.

At that time, Liu Mingzhong was a successful doctor and worked part-time in steel trade, and he was proficient in many languages.

Encouraged by Zhang Yin, Liu Mingzhong threw away her career and started her own business together.

In 1990, Zhang Yin and her husband, Liu Mingzhong, decided to relocate their businesses to the world's largest raw material market, the US Central South company, to buy and provide recyclable waste paper for its factories in China.

When I first came to the United States, I couldn't speak English. Zhang Yin, with her husband, was looking for a client.

Zhang Yin said afterwards that when a woman chooses the other half, she must pay attention to whether or not the other party is equally focused on their careers, otherwise they will not understand each other and will be tired after a long time.

Liu Mingzhong can do that. He is even more powerful than Zhang Yin in the development of the company and in dealing with the affairs of the company.

Some people will mind: as a man, he lives under a woman.

But Liu Mingzhong didn't care at all. He didn't care about vanity.

The principle that two people get along with each other is to admit mistakes when they are wrong, and to be wrong with others.

Zhang Yin, the chairman of the board, sometimes does something wrong. Liu Mingzhong, the vice president, will be severely criticized.

In the "husband and wife" enterprises, there are two couples who are equal.

The combination of Yang Lan and Wu Zheng is a typical commercial success case of a famous woman plus her husband.

In the division of labor, Wu Zheng is mainly based on capital operation and management. Yang Lan is more creative, and at the same time, he is also the image ambassador of the company, and he will show more outside.

In the overseas Chinese circles, Wu Zhengzao is a famous young Chinese businessman. In the mainland, Yang Lan is a star, and he receives more attention than Wu Zheng. In Hongkong, the fame of two people is almost the same.

Two people share common cultural ideas and each has their own strengths.

In April of 1994, Pan Shiyi, who had just arrived in Beijing from the "great escape" of the real estate bubble in Hainan, met Zhang Xin, who worked at Goldman Sachs, Wall Street, after Feng Lun's introduction.

The love of "woodlouse" and "sea turtle" quickly blossom and blossom in half a year. The two people held a wedding ceremony in October of that year.

New people need new faces.

In September 1995, Pan Shiyi left Wantong under the encouragement of his wife and founded Hongshi industry together.

In the eyes of a former business partner, he left a deep impression on him: "at the beginning, Zhang Xin had not resigned from her office, but still worked on the thirty floor office building in the center of China World Trade Center.

Sometimes I went to Zhang Xin with Pan Shiyi. Three people often stood in the office near the window. Pan Shiyi excitedly pointed to the two pieces of land in the distance between Jian Wai SOHO and modern city. This is our site.

We listened to the passion and had a strong impulse to do a great undertaking.

After a period of marriage, the two people's entrepreneurial life is not so tacit, but full of differences and disputes. Although once intense, but after years of running in, this pair of husband and wife cooperation has become increasingly familiar and familiar. Even Zhang Xin's name has been changed to Pan Zhang Xin.

The two people gradually formed the cooperation mode of "Zhang Xin building, Pan Shiyi selling houses". Everything outside the company and business decisions, such as building design and project management, was done by Zhang Xinlai; and negotiations, sales, government relations and all matters related to money were Pan Shiyi's responsibility.

Pan Shiyi once played a very vivid analogy: "like before playing monkey business, I first came out to beat Gong, and then Zhang Xin came out to play monkey, and finally came out to get my hat and collect money."

It is precisely because of this equal cooperation, and then created the overall situation of SOHO China.

In order to prevent bedside dalliance from being in a "husband and wife" enterprise, if the party can not continue to manage the enterprise due to a major accident, the other party is undoubtedly the best substitute.

Nina Wang, who was weak in appearance, helped her husband Wang Dehui to start a business together in the early years.

When the company developed rapidly, Wang Dehui suffered two kidnappings in 1983 and 1990 respectively.

The previous kidnapping was released after paying $11 million, and the second kidnapping paid off a ransom of 60 million dollars, but Wang Dehui evaporated from the human world and never heard of it.

Nina Wang was not knocked down by this sudden blow. Under her continuous leadership, the company's power is growing and assets are multiplying.

With the continuous efforts of Nina Wang, the China Mao Group has developed into Asia's leading investment company. In July 1997, in the world's super rich list published by the US magazine Forbes, Nina Wang ranked the richest Chinese woman in the world with $7 billion personal assets.

Of course, "husband and wife" family business is also a harmonious story, which is a case of eyebrows and eyebrows.

Li Shuang was a ballet dancer and later married to a Real Estate Company boss.

Unwilling to be lonely, Li Shuang, after a comfortable "full-time wife", began to enter her husband's company to engage in sales work, and served as deputy general manager of the company.

Li Shuang did not disappoint her husband. In less than two years, he became famous. He won the honor of "beauty trader" and "real estate beauty" in the industry.

But the success of the business did not add any lubricant to the marriage. On the contrary, the advantages of young, beautiful and extra strong women accumulated a lot of irreconcilable contradictions between her husband and her much older husband.

Finally, the tragedy of a pillow on the side of the gang was created. Li Shuang was accused of taking office by her husband and was in deep jail.

In his life, he talked about love and pursued close relationships. He reasoned in his career, striving for clarity of interests and division of labor.

This is the most important principle for husband and wife enterprises.
