Dropping Out From Junior Classes And Doing Business Chen Xi'S Entrepreneurial Life

Chen Xi, partner of Chang net technology, CEO, was born in 1981.

At the age of 14, he was admitted to the Tianjin University youth class. He used to study in three universities and start his own business four times. He used to be worth tens of millions of dollars, and he used to have only $50.

But all these experiences did not affect his persistent heart, "because I know what I want."

In 2005, he stood out from more than 10 thousand competing entrepreneurs and won the champion of Oriental TV's "intelligent winner".

At present, he founded the company's mobile phone game users have reached 150 thousand, in the industry's top three.

In the eyes of outsiders, Chen Xi Li, who was admitted to the youth class at Tianjin University at the age of 14, should, of course, choose a path of academic research and become a scientist.

Although he was quiet, he had a "restless heart", though he longed for one day to sit quietly in the research room to study some theories, or to give lectures to others in the afternoon. He also liked economic theory and philosophy, and worshipped Nietzsche, Sutter, Schopenhauer and Hagel.

But he chose to quit school and embark on the path to entrepreneurship.

Chen Xi's explanation is: "choosing to become an entrepreneur is due to my ignorance of talent and not becoming a scientist. It is very difficult to benefit from this scientific theory.

I hope to become a valuable contribution to society and others. I hope I can take responsibility for more people. Entrepreneurs are a good role. I want to change the society with business.

Besides, I think I was sensitive to the economy and have the characteristics of being an entrepreneur.

Indeed, he showed the talent of entrepreneurship earlier than ordinary people.

Chen Xi started business when he was a junior school student.

In early 1997, when many people were very familiar with the Internet, he had used the B2C mode to make a profit, "a few years ahead of Ma Yun's Alibaba."

A Vc firm in Hongkong threw 4 million dollars at a time, which was absolutely astronomical at that time.

Chen Xi resolutely left the school, and his partners in Tianjin, Beijing, Hangzhou and other places opened their own company, he served as the company's CTO (Chief Technology Officer), the price also rose to tens of millions of dollars.

In 1999, Chen Xi fell into 50 yuan in 1999. He founded second companies in China.

The young Chen Xi's desire to go public is very strong and incorporated into a company that is said to be on the market. Eventually, the company is not listed, but the company's stock rights are very complicated after the merger, and the situation is hard to control.

The failure of shell buying listed him in the first defeat of his life, and his worth dropped from tens of millions to 50 yuan.

He still clearly remembered sitting in a bankrupt company, watching the workers empty the furniture and guarding a little yellow light alone to see that the sky lit up.

He didn't get knocked down by failure. "I don't have many successful experiences, but there are many failures. I am lucky enough to be able to experience failure at a very young age.

Failure gave me more opportunities to think. A truly great fighter is not reflected in knocking down his opponent, but after being knocked down by failure.

After the second failure of the business, Chen Xi, 22, returned to the university campus. During this period, he often went to the philosophy department to get lessons.

In 2001, Chen Xi founded a software company with his peers, and then went to university to learn macroeconomics, microeconomics, financial management and other knowledge.

"I choose one thing today to be very focused and patient. Even if people around me don't believe me, I will stick to it."

He also often thinks, maybe everything we do today will be gone tomorrow.

"This industry is cruelly touring, but I am not afraid.

I am an optimistic pessimist. I will be pessimistic about some problems and face it optimistically.

I believe that life is a tragedy after all, but the more people who can sense the tragedy, the more brave they are.

Faced with the tragedy of life, I choose to be vigorous, even if the curtain falls, I hope there is no regret.

He said he compared with Chen Tianqiao, the common advantage is to dare to think and dare to work, big bet big lose big win, "but Chen Tianqiao is more stable than me."

Today, regardless of temporary pride and disappointment, Chen Xi seems to be a mere process.

"The realm of life lies in" the best of all, "and there will always be a better next time.

Perhaps it is because of the ups and downs of life and the success and failure of career.

Chen Xi appears to be more mature than his peers. The judges of the "creative intelligence winner" commentary on him is: resilience, passion and age.

He is also the most crying girl among all the players except girls.

Chen Xizi thinks that he is a strict minded but affectionate person. "I may be different from other peers in certain problems.

Career will be very rational, using knowledge and experience to solve problems; life is also very emotional, relying on intuition and belief in life.

In 2004, Chen Xi and his partners jointly invested 1 million yuan to create the technology of Chang net in Shanghai. The project he chose was mobile Internet game, which was 18 hours a day.

In the process of founding a company, Chen Xi called "all the VC in China".

By the end of this year, once the second round of financing is available, the market value will reach US $30 million.

But Chen Xi knows that the survival of the company may be overnight.

"Only the first person can survive and be remembered. We must form an absolute advantage in competition. By then, every cell phone will have our game."

Compared with previous ventures, Chen Xi said he was improving himself from the perspective of a small company's tunnel.

In addition to constantly emphasizing executive power, he is more interested in the way of operation and operation of products, teams and markets, as well as the value of products to the users, the value of the company to the industry, and the value of the company to investors.

"I pursue these values to exist and consolidate in an orderly way".

In addition, he has developed a better entrepreneurial mindset.

"Business must be a million meters run, not a hundred meters run.

I don't care much about the gains and losses of a moment. I know my rhythm, good attitude and good rhythm are destined to succeed.

What I pursue is an open and pparent pattern. "

Chen Xi's life plan is to be a real entrepreneur.

Now he is the biggest shareholder of the company and also the core of management.

"When a company is small, it must respond quickly.

At this point, I will lead the staff in the front line, playing the role of coach and player.

When I enter the growth stage, I think about strategic planning and sort out resources.

At this stage, I mostly hide behind the scenes, and the biggest change is from result oriented to strategic orientation.

Chen Xi, who has returned to school many times, has always attached great importance to learning. "No successful entrepreneur has learned a lot of systematic theoretical knowledge.

A lot of experience is wrong. Only by studying can we see the problems in the enterprise systematically and comprehensively.

But there are many ways to acquire knowledge. "It doesn't matter if you are studying and keeping up with the University."

Chen Xi now works 16~18 hours a day, focusing on one thousand or two thousand blogs, reading a lot of business books and magazines, and communicating with friends from all walks of life.

"I am not a genius. If I have some achievements, it is only because I am lucky and I work harder than others.

Life is too short. I am always ready to accept challenges. "

Speaking of many successful predecessors, he said, "today, Liu Chuanzhi (Liu Chuanzhi news, Liu Chuanzhi)" a generation of entrepreneurs has basically withdrawn from the stage of history.

Tomorrow maybe Chen Tianqiao and Jiang Nan Chun will withdraw from the stage of history. I don't know if I can become a classic hero, but running the country is the pursuit of the world. I hope to make the world different because of my existence.

With more and more attention, Chen Xi said soberly, "I always remind myself not to be a meteor. If I fail to contribute to society, naming is a great irony."

A little pause, he added firmly: "of course, I always believe I will be a celebrity."
