Qiu Lirong: Tears Accompany The Billionaires' Bitter Entrepreneurial Road

An ordinary woman worker has become a billionaire woman after 18 years of arduous pioneering work, and which one hundred million of the 600 million assets she earned has not been soaked in tears?

Her history of entrepreneurship may be a profound and useful revelation for people who are eager to start their own business and worry about choking water at sea.

If you choose to quit your job, you will only be able to find your own world. The bigger your dream, the bigger your sky will be!

In order to have a place where he could dominate, Qiu Lirong resigned after the reform and opening up, and went to the road of entrepreneurship early.

Qiu Lirong, who owns more than 600 million yuan assets, is now the chairman and President of Dunhuang group of Sichuan province and vice chairman of Sichuan Federation of industry and commerce.

At a meeting held by the Women Entrepreneurs Association of Sichuan Province, she talked about her "family history", and her tears kept flowing down. As a result, several female entrepreneurs who followed the speech cried.

Qiu Lirong said with a smile that she had not taken the lead with her time, and that the introduction of experience had become a complaining meeting because of the difficulties she had encountered in her life.

She said she relied on faith and luck to spend his 18 years of his own business - the clothes I made all year round in Chengdu City, 1986. I worked as a worker in a shirt factory in Chengdu.

But our factory only produces men's shirts, and my talents can only be displayed on workmates.

At that time, I thought that if there was a heaven and earth let me control myself, that would be great!

After the reform and opening up, I resigned.

It is hard for women to start their own businesses.

Qiu Lirong, with a firm belief and a strong desire to admit defeat, only started one step at a time and created the world of his own.

It is difficult for entrepreneurs to quit their jobs. Entrepreneurship requires not only capital and market, but also management.

I don't like to flinch from my 100 thousand yuan of money from my relatives and friends. I started my own clothing factory.

I can't afford to buy Sewing machines. I let the workers bring them. I have no money to invite people, factory directors, technicians, salesmen, purchasers and even security guards.

But it was a woman. I could not be frightened by the vigil at night, so I had to take my two-and-a-half years old daughter to courage.

Which link needs raw materials, I cross the bike to buy, run from the east gate of Chengdu to Simon, and then from the west gate to the south gate.

Sometimes, when they just bought something and sent it to the factory, the workers shouted again: what material did the director of factory director have left?

As soon as I heard it, I was in a hurry. I could not afford to work hard.

One day, when I was riding a bicycle, I suddenly collapsed in the street. I woke up to see many people watching. I wondered what I was doing today. Sitting on the ground for a long time, I remembered that I hadn't had a bite to eat all day.

After the first batch of products came out, I went to the shopping mall to sell myself, but when I heard about the production of private enterprises, they simply ignored you. They waved repeatedly to say no, take it away!

I patiently told them: you look at my product style, hang it for 3 days, if there is no sale in 3 days, you return it to me.

They finally agreed, and hung up my clothes in a very humble place. I went to the waiter to discuss with them and ask them to hang up my product a little more conspicuous.

I even ran to sell them in a shopping mall and a shopping mall.

Because these clothes are designed by myself, and the style has the advantage. In the 3 days, the clothes hanging out are sold.

In this way, my factory has gradually entered the right track. In a year, the clothes produced by our factory are all over the city of Chengdu. But the new problem has emerged again: I design a design today, and someone will copy it tomorrow. Consumers can no matter who is the right brand, the style is the same, who will buy it cheaply.

This gives me a lesson, and I should do something that no one else can think of and what is not on the market.

After listening to my friend's advice, I bought a motorcycle.

Because I was too busy, I only went to school in a very short time.

One day, when I went shopping, three children suddenly crossed the road, and I brake quickly.

The child ran past. In panic, I opened the accelerator and released the brakes. The motorcycle crashed into the crowd.

I was scared to death. The only thought was that I could not bump into people. As a result, in the right direction, there was a telegraph pole on the roadside, and the moment I bumped into it, I grabbed the pole with my hand, and the car was hit up and my leg was stuck in the wheel.

I pulled the brake with a little bit of consciousness, but my foot twisted into the wheel and made a big circle. Later, someone pulled the steel wire with a pair of pliers to pull out the foot that I had broken.

In the hospital, the blood blister on my instep was broken. The doctor came to clean up the rotten meat every day. I didn't know it was hurt. The doctor said I had developed osteomyelitis, and I had to amputate if I wanted to save my life.

I think I just want to start a business as a cripple. If I can't do my own work, I have to take care of others. So I have a heart to heart: I can never amputate. If I want to take my life, I will recognize it.

I left the hospital.

From now on, I have more Zhang Hangjun beds in my office, with pillows on my back, and high quilts on my feet. I work while I receive treatment.

I gained weight later because I used a lot of hormones at that time, while playing the closed needles, taking human globulin and doing business reception, all were in bed.

At that time, many customers said, "your life can't be saved. What else do you want to do?"

I say I don't care. The enterprise that I just founded, I must do it.

At that time, our company's name was Dunhuang embroidery factory, because in the past China's products went along the Silk Road into the international market. I think I will launch my products one day, so I used the name of Dunhuang.

The first order I received at the Canton Fair was in the United States.

But making mouth products is too difficult, and the main difficulties are tight schedule and strict fabric requirements.

Our domestic cloth blue is blue, red is red, but abroad requires the blue to be red, blue and gray, and the gray, yellow, blue, green and other colors that the naked eye can see can not be deep or shallow.

I don't know how many samples have been played. Finally, when foreign businessmen say OK, they dare to start cutting and making. In the process of production, the front chest of clothes is not allowed to have a yarn head, otherwise the clothes will be scrapped.

So long ago, I really had a very short production period.

The delivery process is connected by land and sea.

I have booked the train in advance, and I signed a contract from the Shanghai port to the United States, so the deadline is non delivery.

The workers can rest in shifts. I can't, because I'm afraid of my heart. - I reckon the accounts. If the goods can't be delivered as scheduled, all the money I spent before I have to pay for it, I bite my teeth, I haven't slept for three hours or even one hour, and I don't know fatigue.

After the slack, the people immediately relaxed and put on airs. I slept on the bed in a dark state like a boat.

I could not keep my eyes open, and I would not speak.

After waking up, I realized that I had slept all day and night.

The first hurdle has passed, and my foreign trade business is getting better and better.

I attend the Canton Fair every year, and I have received orders from the United States, Canada, Sweden, Australia, the United Kingdom and Germany, and I even do all the clothing exported to France.

My pollution-free products have become a fashion gift from Chengdu people.

As the product entered the international market, I began to participate in various international fashion fairs.

On one occasion, I accidentally walked into a supermarket in Losangeles, a new idea appeared in my mind.

It's a garden like supermarket. From vegetables, fruits to flowers, it is clean and good-looking. It allows people to go in.

In 1989, Chengdu's agricultural products were still stalls, and the streets and alleys for selling agricultural products were always dirty and smelly.

I don't know what ecological agriculture and pollution-free agriculture are. We just want to be a big agricultural country. How can farm produce be good for others? So I proposed to visit the American manor.

In this way, others went to Disneyland to play, but I left the team to see the grapes and crispy pear farm.

In the United States, a farm with only 10 labor force can cultivate hundreds of hectares of land, all mechanized operations. It is absolutely magnificent.

Since then, I have visited their agriculture and farming in every country, and I have become more and more determined in these two aspects.

In 1994, I visited Sichuan province's friendship province county - Yamanashi Prefecture, Japan, and established close ties with the Local Academy of natural science and technology. They became the technical support force for my future development.

I think if you take your lifelong savings to do agricultural projects, you can also contribute to society.

As a result, the pollution-free vegetables and ecological science and technology parks were decided to return the clean and unpolluted food chain to consumers.

In 1995, I bought 550 acres of land in Dujiangyan, 30 kilometers away from Chengdu, and officially started my own high-tech agriculture.

I bought a farmer's land and couldn't use it directly.

Long term use of highly toxic pesticides and fertilizers has led to the salinization of these lands and many harmful substances.

I started from pig farms, invested 5 million yuan, made pig waste and made biogas digesters, made a bio fertilizer small processing plant to make bio fertilizer, and then produced pollution-free vegetables according to strict standards.

I also made a feasibility report, put forward the principle of "high starting point and large scale", and estimated the total investment of all projects must be 320 million.

Because of the high starting point, the government has incorporated my park into a relatively high level of management in the country, and my company has become a leading enterprise in the production of pollution-free vegetables.

After the government began testing the pollution-free vegetables, my company was the first one in Sichuan to get the green vegetable label, and the product was put into all the 48 supermarkets in Chengdu.

There is no man who silently pays for her success.

During the arduous pioneering process, Qiu Lirong's other half split up with her.

Her daughter lacks motherhood from childhood.

But for the sake of success in business, Qiu Lirong has also gained another kind of happiness when he sacrificed too much time.

In the past, I used to spend more time in doing business than I used to do. Now I use my brain more. If I am old, I will easily be eliminated.

Now I have 4500 tons of cold storage, and I need to build a fresh storehouse immediately so that the vegetables can keep fresh for 6 months, and the fruits can keep fresh for 14 months.

I want to let my fresh vegetables go abroad and put them on the shelves of foreign supermarkets.

My daughter said, "I want you to be happy".

Although I have more money than I used to, I still live a simple life.

I do not drink or smoke, nor do I have the habit of drinking tea. Every day I am too busy to remember to make tea for myself. Thirsty with a glass of boiled water will solve the problem.

I eat food from my farm and wear clothes made by my factory. I can't spend 1000 yuan a month.

It's not just to eat and wear two words, but doing business has become my hobby.

Now I am afraid to take a long vacation. At the beginning of those two days, I may feel very relaxed. At last, I can have a rest. On the third day, I will feel empty in mind. I am not interested in playing. I will not learn mahjong. I will sleep in a daze every day.

I thought, "what can I do today?"

Why don't you go to work?

I really don't know what I will do when I retire in the future.

Others say male success is half that of women, and women's success is half of that of men. Unfortunately, I have been fighting alone.

Since I have been an enterprise, my family has not been able to manage much, and the communication between two people is few.

My biggest regret is that I didn't spend more time to care for my daughter. When I was a child, I threw her to my sister and brought sand and stones at the factory door. She played at the door every day and was bullied and ran back in tears all over the mud. When I went out to work, she took my bicycle to stop, but as soon as aunt came out, she would immediately let go and say, "it's not a good boy who drives her mother, you'll come back early, mom!"

So, I often go crying on my bicycle.

Now, my daughter is 21 years old. I told her that mom was very sorry for you. The children of other families had love from their parents, but I gave them to you.
