Ren Zhengfei 赵凡禹 10138Words 2018-03-16
Max Weber once said that charismatic leaders have extraordinary abilities, special talents and like to deal with challenges. Ren Zhengfei is one of them. He is mysterious and unpredictable. The logic is strict, the export is well-written, and the speech is extremely provocative.Many of his articles published in internal magazines have become must-reads for many employees. He has the wisdom of a leader and the innocence of a child. The great leader Mao Zedong is not only majestic, but also has a strong sense of humanity. He is an amiable elder and approachable; his friendly smile warms people's hearts.

The "good fighter" he "cultivated", Ren Zhengfei is also a very low-key person, and basically has no direct contact with the media.There are many people who want to meet Ren Zhengfei, but very few people can meet him, which inevitably makes him feel a lot of mystery. He doesn't like publicity. He immerses himself in the world he created and obtains spiritual satisfaction from his own practice. Regardless of any praise or slander from the outside world, to a certain extent, Ren Zhengfei has achieved the highest spiritual state of not being happy with things and not being sad with himself.But Ren Zhengfei is a human being after all, not a god.Behind his mystery, there are many stories full of human touch.

Because he was born in the army, Ren Zhengfei is vigorous and resolute, and his execution ability is very strong. This is an important guarantee for Huawei to develop to today.Ren Zhengfei has a strong personality and loves talents very much. Therefore, Huawei can gather a large number of elites, which provides a talent guarantee for Huawei's rapid development.In the process of running the company, Ren Zhengfei adopted an extremely flexible and open attitude, and actively absorbed and learned from advanced Western technology and management models, which made Huawei's technology make rapid progress, and Huawei's management level leapt to the forefront of Chinese companies .

At the same time, Ren Zhengfei is also a man of temperament with a high emotional intelligence. Beneath his resolute appearance, he actually hides a sensitive and weak heart. Ren Zhengfei is full of gratitude to Huawei colleagues who have made great sacrifices for Huawei's development. In the emotional part, Ren Zhengfei would even cry.Ren Zhengfei is very easy to sympathize with the bottom of society and the weak, and has the courage to help. Ren Zhengfei, unkempt, looks like an old worker, with his sleeves rolled up, and he speaks carelessly.When I saw him for the first time, I felt that he was like a big boss, a resolute soldier with true qualities, and he was always hot when criticizing people, without showing any mercy.When I saw him the second time, he was like a generous and kind elder, full of wisdom, and sometimes innocent like a child.

Ren Zhengfei's strength and toughness are well known to everyone.Ren Zhengfei has a bad temper. In Huawei, he is the most irritable person people have ever seen. Many people who have worked under him have experienced being scolded.Li Yuzhuo, who worked with Ren Zhengfei, recorded in his "My Conflict and Cooperation with Business Leaders": "Ren Zhengfei has a very bad temper, the most irritable person I have ever seen. I often see some cadres being scolded by him. Dog blood sprinkler (especially senior cadres). One night, he accompanied a director of the telecommunications bureau for dinner until 9 o'clock. On the way back, I asked him whether to go back to the company or go home. He said back to the company, and some cadres are preparing for the next day (Li Peng is going to inspect Huawei the next day). I accompanied him back to the company. In the conference room, he picked up several manuscripts prepared by the vice president, read only two lines, and threw them on the On the ground: "What have you guys written!" So I started cursing, and then took off my shoes, walked around on the ground barefoot like a monster, cursing while walking, and scolded for half an hour."

In the past, Li Yinan was second only to Ren Zhengfei. Once he did something wrong, he would be scolded and even kicked.In a work meeting, Ren Zhengfei said to his chief financial officer: "You have made great progress recently, from very poor to relatively poor." Ren Zhengfei's critics are even more outspoken and merciless.Once, at the company's high-level meeting, he pointed to Zheng Baoyong, the executive vice president, and said, "Zheng Baoyong, one person can top 10,000." Then he pointed to another vice president and said, "You, 10,000 can top One." Another time, he said to the chief financial officer: "You have made great progress recently, from very poor to relatively poor."

But when talking on the phone with his son in private, Ren Zhengfei's voice will be extremely rare "extremely gentle". Ren Zhengfei was born in the military, and he often talked about Mao Zedong, Deng Xiaoping, the three major battles, the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea with his employees, and he talked passionately; It looks like a voracious wolf; he generally doesn't care about people, and he talks eloquently, and from time to time he will express unexpected insights. Ren Zhengfei is also notoriously paranoid, but occasionally, he will turn a corner. In November 2005, a financial magazine made a cover report on Huawei's internationalization.Its cover uses a photo bought from the International Photo Agency. In the photo, Ren Zhengfei's face is full of dimples and his eyes are full of worry.Ren was very upset after watching it. He didn't want his image to appear in the media, especially on the cover of magazines.Later, people around Ren said that this photo was taken well, and he turned his anger into joy again.A few months later, the Huawei Press Center called and asked for the photo on the cover.

Ren Zhengfei is upright and blunt, which has made many people unable to step down. In 1997, he went to Beijing on a business trip and wanted to drop by to "meet the leaders of big companies".Who are you meeting?Lenovo Liu Chuanzhi is one.At the same time, someone also recommended Yongji, a four-way section that was once one of the symbols of Zhongguancun.Ren Zhengfei said something astonishing: "The defeated general, it doesn't matter if you don't see him!" A deputy mayor of Tianjin once asked Ren Zhengfei for advice when he visited Huawei: "What do you think the government should do to help enterprises develop?" Ren Zhengfei's answer It also surprised the people present: "The government's greatest help to enterprises is to do nothing, as long as the roads in the city are repaired, and the flowers and plants beside the parks and roads are planted, this is the greatest help to enterprises!"

Sometimes, his strength will also bring some unexpected results. In mid-August 2008, Huawei quoted a low price of 690 million yuan in China Telecom's CDMA network bidding, which was much lower than other competitors such as Alang (14 billion yuan) and ZTE (over 7 billion yuan). The offer left other competitors dumbfounded.It is said that the ultra-low quotation of 690 million yuan was not Ren Zhengfei's own wish, but was caused by "movement deformation" in the specific implementation process under heavy pressure.Until the final quotation, he did not know the specific quotation, so that "Ren Zhengfei was furious after being exposed by the media".

Wang Shi, chairman of Vanke, said that Ren Zhengfei "has a good taste in creating a working environment." In January 1996, the headquarters office of a subsidiary of Huawei moved to the Shenyi Building. Ren Zhengfei, who studied architecture, would visit the Shenyi Building under renovation almost every day. Ask one by one.As a result, the previous arrangements were often rejected by Ren Zhengfei on the spot, which made the decoration staff not know who to listen to. Is this the Ren Zhengfei you know?That's right. Inviting Ren Zhengfei from the god-like cloud is just to prove a truth: no one is a saint, and great leaders are all mortals, and their leadership has grown up step by step. The same is true for Ren Zhengfei, What's more, Ren Zhengfei's limitations have not hindered the powerful display of his own excellent qualities.

When Huawei was founded in 1987, Ren Zhengfei was already 43 years old; before 1994, Huawei sometimes had difficulty paying wages; in 1992, at the mobilization meeting for the development of the C&C08 machine, Ren Zhengfei stood by the window of the meeting room on the fifth floor and said to all cadres : "If this research and development fails, I will have to jump off the stairs, and you can find another way out." The words are full of tragedy. By 2005, among the top 50 telecom operators in the world, Huawei ranked 22nd; in 2007, Huawei surpassed Nortel and entered the top five global communication equipment manufacturers; in 2008, Huawei's sales are expected to reach 23 billion US dollars , an increase of nearly 44% year-on-year, which is close to Ericsson.At the same time, Huawei also announced that 72% of its contracted sales came from overseas markets, making it a veritable multinational company, thus creating the fastest record for a Chinese company to hit overseas markets with its "own brand".Under the tremendous pressure from Huawei, Ericsson President Svankel also publicly criticized Huawei's growth method without calmness and determination. In fact, Ren Zhengfei has long known this.As early as May 31, 2008, Ren Zhengfei said within the company, "We are in an era of surplus electronic products, and there will be a surplus. The surplus products will never be sold at high prices. Taking optical transmission products as an example, seven The price has been reduced by 20 times in eight years, and the excess of the market economy is like a war of strangulation. What is a war of strangulation? It is like twisting a towel. As long as water is wrung out, it means that there is still room for competition. If the towel is broken, the enterprise will be over. Only When the towel is wrung out and the towel is still there, that's the best." In an email to Huawei's EMT (core management) and some product line executives, Ren Zhengfei forwarded a short article titled "Cisco Prepares for the Winter" published by the US "Fortune", and solemnly wrote down this article Note: "Cisco's today is our tomorrow. Of course, I am not motivating people, but I am warning people. They perceive the difficulty and cruelty of market competition more than us. Cisco is smarter than us, and their difficulties in the future are earlier. Measures were taken, and we were just numb." In fact, compared with the performance of most companies, Ren Zhengfei is not numb at all. Ren Zhengfei is notoriously short-tempered in Huawei. His relatives, friends and Huawei executives have been scolded fiercely by him.But for ordinary employees, he is an amiable elder who cares about their problems.Once in the elevator room, several young department-level cadres at Huawei began to complain about why the company didn't set up a financial system at the base, which made them constantly running around for business trip reimbursement, and they were so tired that they couldn't breathe.The elevator went to the 7th floor - the location of the president's office. An "old worker" with his sleeves rolled up flashed out from the corner of the elevator without saying a word.Everyone was dumbfounded and looked at each other in blank dismay, "It's over".But just over ten days later, the employees discovered that Hope's base financial system had been established.Employees feel the warmth of spring, "Mr. Ren is the most concerned about people", "Mr. Ren is the most fair in dealing with things", "Mr. Ren is the most loyal"... In 1998, Ren Zhengfei half-jokingly said at a meeting within the company that he never knew why it was difficult for him to get promoted in the army. If you can’t get promoted, it will be hard for you to have a good temper with the leaders. The reason why Huawei people can tolerate your fiery temper is because you are the boss.” Ren Zhengfei didn’t know that he was not angry, but had a look on his face. wry smile. A Huawei employee told a true story: At that time, he was just an ordinary employee. Once, he came back from a business trip and saw Ren Zhengfei at the airport. Ren Zhengfei had just returned from a business trip.He wanted to pretend that he hadn't seen it, but Ren Zhengfei came over to greet him warmly, and asked him where his family lived, and sent him home before returning home by himself.Afterwards, he was very moved. Hu Hongwei, a former vice president of Huawei, said with deep understanding that Ren Zhengfei treats people well because he sincerely hopes for others to be good.Every year, many aspiring young people leave Huawei to start their own businesses.Ren Zhengfei never puts cards on those who leave, but supports them with a positive attitude and silently blesses them. In 1999, Zhang Xiao resigned from Huawei and founded Shenzhen Liyanzhuo Translation Co., Ltd. The first big order was from Huawei.Yihua Times Management Consulting Company, founded by Zhang Jianguo, has provided long-term employee training for Huawei.Luo Tao founded Shenzhen Huarong Technology Co., Ltd. to undertake Huawei's manufacturing business. "Without Huawei, there would be no success in our business." This is the heartfelt words of many people who left Huawei to start their own businesses. Although Ren Zhengfei is grumpy and unsmiling, deep in his heart, there is a delicate emotion.He longs for sincerity, heart-to-heart emotional communication, seemingly strong, but behind it is tenderness like water. "Spring in the North Country" is Ren Zhengfei's favorite song. Whenever he hears this love song, he can't help but burst into tears. In "Northern Spring", Ren Zhengfei revealed his delicate emotions: "When a young man left his hometown and his relatives to fight for his career, only his mother cared for him all the time, so that the city didn't know that the seasons had changed, and when spring came, they sent him cotton clothes to protect him from the severe winter. And I don't have a mother anymore Will send me zheergen (Houttuynia cordata), wild vegetables and sausages, all of which can only last forever in eternal memory. Children travel thousands of miles and mothers are worried, and parents all over the world are the same, worrying about their children. I wrote "I My Japanese friends also translated the article into Japanese and English for employees to circulate. They mistakenly thought I was a filial son. I was so guilty and miserable because I didn’t fulfill my responsibility to take care of my parents. I dedicated all my energy to He lost his job and forgot the safety of his parents. He was actually an incompetent son. "A person leaves home and strives to obtain a better life, and love is the most important part of a better life, but love is like a single-plank bridge. If someone passes by, you can't. It has been five years since I left home. When the stream is gurgling, facing the single-plank bridge that crosses itself, I really don’t know if others have passed, but the girl I love is safe. That kind of melancholy, that kind of loss, that kind of confusion, so what if you succeed? "There are clumps of ditangs, morning fog, quiet waterwheels, huts, and bursts of carefree children's songs are accompanied by the taciturnity of father and brother. Most of us can go to college because of the silent dedication of our father and brother. As a result, they have worked hard and accumulated little by little to provide for the helpless wanderers far away in other places, but they themselves have no culture. They have built the first step in life and career for us with their hard backbone . "I hope they don't suffer themselves too much. When they are sad, they are relatively speechless and sell two glasses of beer. We must not forget them, must not dislike them, and must not forget to repay them. From this I think, each of us The success of a person comes from the selfless dedication of relatives. The driving force of our life, work and career comes first from the winter clothes of our mothers to keep out the cold, from our taciturn father and brother, from the waterwheels, huts, and single-plank bridges in our hometown, and from the time when we loved you but were separated. someone's girl……" At the end of one year, Ren Zhengfei sat in the front row in a group chorus in the small conference room on the 7th floor of the company.Listening to the employees singing majestic revolutionary songs, I couldn't help but burst into tears.Sometimes, when Ren Zhengfei sees employees performing, singing, or even visiting the Shenzhen Folk Culture Village, it will remind him of the passionate years in the past. The days of joining the army and the struggling years before starting a business come to mind. On February 12, 1997, Yang Lin, director of Huawei's marketing department secretariat, was killed in a car accident while traveling in Hainan. Huawei vice presidents Zhang Jianguo, Zhu Jianping and others immediately flew to Hainan to deal with the aftermath. Expressing deep sorrow, this is something that many companies cannot do. Ren Zhengfei was so sad that he wrote a commemorative article. In 1997, Ren Zhengfei wrote affectionately in the article "Mourning Yang Lin": "Huawei's brilliance is ignited by thousands of tiny fireflies. When the fireflies are desperately shining, they don't consider whether others can see him clearly." When there is no one, they are still shining, maintaining the brilliance and brand of Huawei, unknown, and don’t care. They are consuming their youth, health and life. Huawei is made up of countless unknown Composed of heroes, and countless unsung heroes will continue to pour in, they are already making history, Huawei's glorious history, we will never forget them. When our products cover the world, we want to commemorate these contributions to Huawei's development A firefly with youth and passion." In the article, he stated that Yang Lin hadn't spoken a few words to her during the few years he worked in Huawei, and that he hadn't had a heart-to-heart talk with her, which was his greatest regret. In 1998, Lu Xiaofeng, an employee of Huawei, went to Algeria and Tunisia in Africa to develop markets, but encountered an air crash in Tunisia.Luckily, he survived.After Ren Zhengfei heard about it, he took time to visit Lu Xiaofeng in the hospital in person.Hearing that his coat was damaged, I personally accompanied him to the street to buy new clothes.This made his blood boil immediately, and when it was published in the "Huawei People" newspaper, many people were moved. Regarding Ren Zhengfei's personal feelings, most of Huawei's veteran employees can give a description that they were divorced and then remarried. The details are unknown.There is a small-scale version circulating among Huawei’s old employees: the outspoken Ren Zhengfei once lamented the impermanence of life and unpredictable love during a chat. He was full of enthusiasm when he was young, but frustrated in love. Huawei is a high-tech enterprise that starts from high technology and focuses on large markets, large systems, and large structures.With its historical mission, it requires all employees to persist in cooperation and take the road of collective struggle.Otherwise, it will be difficult for individuals to display their ingenuity and achieve something, and it will be difficult for enterprises to achieve success, and even affect their survival.Therefore, Ren Zhengfei requires employees to cooperate with each other, avoid individual combat, avoid individual heroism, and realize their own value in collective struggle. In addition, Ren Zhengfei also emphasized that Huawei's leaders must be warm and friendly with employees.In Huawei, it is common for leaders to invite subordinates to dinner in Huawei, and it is also one of the traditions handed down from the beginning of the company's entrepreneurship.During the start-up period, Ren Zhengfei gave funds to all department managers, asking the managers to treat their subordinates to dinner, basically once a week.This is actually a mode of team communication, which in turn enhances employee cohesion.Ren Zhengfei said specifically about this: The leader of the Iron Army must care about his subordinates, and he must invite them if he does not invite them.The door of the company is completely open to employees.People come to welcome, people leave to see off, and if you come again, you are still welcome.In Huawei, there are many old employees of second-entry companies or third-entry companies, which are enough to witness Huawei's mind and charm. Humor is an art that can bring people a relaxed and comfortable feeling.Mark Twain is a humorist who is popular all over the world. His works are humorous, full of laughter, laughter, cursing, satire and whipping.Mark Twain was suddenly fired by the editor-in-chief after six months on the editorial board of the San Francisco "Call".The editor-in-chief explained: "Because you are too lazy and useless at all." Mark Twain replied with a smile: "Ah, you are really stupid. It will take you six months to realize that I am too lazy." It's useless, and I knew you the day I came in to work." People who don't know Ren Zhengfei think that he has a rough temper and will teach others with a straight face all day long.In fact, talking to him is also humorous and approachable. In the early days, Ren Zhengfei often said to dozens of employees, improve the food today and cook some pig tail soup!Everyone ate happily by pulling the pig's tail.After every newcomer comes in, everyone treats guests with the same food, and as time goes by, they also fall in love with this mouthful. Ren Zhengfei advocates doing things in a down-to-earth manner and opposes unrealistic fantasy. Regarding this, he said humorously: "Our strategic planning office is to study the company's 3-5 year development strategy, not to study the company's 10 or 20 years later. Regarding the development strategy, I don’t know if the company can survive 20 years, but if someone can say what Huawei will do in 20 years, I can demonstrate that in 20 years, human beings will not eat food, but dung.” In 1996, Ren Zhengfei gave a pair of work boots to each of the directors of production planning and sales planning after listening to the reports on production planning and sales planning.Everyone, you look at me and I look at you. I don't know what the boss's intention is by doing this.Ren Zhengfei said with a smile: "In the future, you will take the road of combining with workers, peasants and soldiers." In 1997, Huawei held a general meeting of employees stationed in Shenzhen in the cafeteria on the 7th floor. While talking, Ren Zhengfei suddenly said: Huawei's top management is ugly. Look at Li Yinan and Hu Houkun, how ugly they are!Stand up and show everyone.The two of them really stood up for everyone to see. The atmosphere in the venue of 2,000 people suddenly relaxed, everyone smiled happily, and he himself smiled like a child. Ren Zhengfei often said: "Huawei needs to loosen the soil and renovate. The seeds are planted by ourselves. The experts invited from outside and the introduction process are like sunlight projected in. If we leave this field, we can pick up corn from the outside, but Maybe the first seed sown dies." Regarding Huawei's integration into the international trend, Ren Zhengfei once said a famous saying wittily: "When you are a guest at someone else's house, you can't pick your feet." If you can’t pour it out, it’s not a dumpling.” At the Huawei staff meeting, Ren Zhengfei asked: "What is the biggest problem for Huawei after 2000?" Everyone replied: I don't know.Ren Zhengfei told everyone: "It's because you have so much money that you don't know how to spend it. When you buy a house, the living room can be smaller and the bedroom can be smaller, but the balcony must be bigger and you need to buy a big rake. Forget to hang your money on the balcony frequently, otherwise your money will all be moldy." Later, when someone asked Ren Zhengfei why he chose the communications field, he just smiled and said, "We were very naive at that time." Once, a deputy mayor of Tianjin came to visit Huawei. Seeing Huawei's thriving performance, he wanted to ask Ren Zhengfei for advice and asked, "What do you think the government should do to help the company develop?" Surprisingly, Ren Zhengfei's The answer shocked everyone present: "The government's greatest help to enterprises is to do nothing. As long as the city's roads are repaired and the flowers and plants beside the roads are planted, this is the greatest help to enterprises." Face, really makes people sweat for him! In 2001, when Yang Yuanqing visited Huawei, Yang Yuanqing expressed that Lenovo wanted to increase investment in research and development and make high-tech Lenovo. Ren Zhengfei said to him in the tone of an elder: "Development is not an easy task. You have to do it well. Invest billions of dollars, prepare for a few years without bubbling." In recent years, Ren Zhengfei has frequently visited overseas, and his English level has been "improving by leaps and bounds" in the conversations. After returning to China, he occasionally speaks some Western-style humor to entertain everyone for a while. Ren Zhengfei's speeches are very popular, with fluent eloquence and humorous art, people applaud warmly every time he takes the stage.He always said: "Don't applaud, if you applaud again, I will leave." Family affection is an emotion that everyone cannot give up.Family affection is the special feeling between relatives. No matter what the other party is, we must love each other, no matter how rich or poor, regardless of health or disease, or even good or evil.It has two characteristics: one is mutual, not unilateral, maternal love is family affection, and loving mother is also family affection; Love, mother-child (mother-daughter) love, sibling love (brothers and sisters), grand-grandson love (grandchildren and grandchildren)... The definition of family affection in Chinese Happiness Studies is: Family affection is the affection between relatives, the affection between parents and children, and the affection between brothers and sisters.Parents' affection for their children is to love the strong and love the weak even more. For a blind and deaf child with a broken leg, parents love him even more, but love is not the case. Love is to love the strong and not to love the weak .Parents love their children for too long, too long.From the birth of the children to the adulthood, extending to the next generation of the children, and then the next generation, all fingers are connected to each other.Family affection is defined as the desire to give some or all of one's thoughts to a loved one. But family affection has another interpretation for a successful entrepreneur.Zhang Ruimin, president of Haier, said: "Entrepreneurs don't need a home for the sake of the enterprise." Ren Zhengfei is different from Zhang Ruimin. He is busy with his career, but he always cares about his family. When drafting the "Huawei Company Basic Law", he added the expression "Love the motherland and people are the source of our cohesion": "Love the company and love your relatives" and Be realistic. Ren Zhengfei has a warm family of blood relatives, where he has the love of his parents and the selfless help of his brothers and sisters.With this warm home, he found a haven for his tired heart after struggling in the mall. Ren Zhengfei's daughter and younger sister work at Huawei and both changed their names.My daughter graduated from a famous university with a master's degree, and several other relatives have a bachelor's degree or above. They have no privileges in Huawei and have a very good reputation.They are low-key and unassuming.From them, we can see the influence of Ren Zhengfei. Ren Zhengfei has taught his relatives by his own words and deeds, to be down-to-earth, not to show off, and to rely on his own efforts to develop himself. Said: "Father gave birth to me, mother gave birth to me, raised me, nurtured me, took care of me." There is nothing more unforgettable than the love of parents. Traditional Chinese people have a strong sense of family, and filial piety is the main thread that maintains traditional Chinese social ethics.It goes: "Filial piety is also the foundation of benevolence!" "When a disciple enters, he is filial, and when he leaves, he is fraternal." In China, children are the continuation of their parents' lives, and parents dedicate selfless love to their children.The father is kind and the son is filial, the sheep have the kindness of kneeling and breastfeeding, the crow has the filial piety of feeding back, a warm family finds a harbor for an unsteady heart. Ren Zhengfei clearly remembers that when the difficult years of the "Cultural Revolution" finally came to an end, his father finally waited for liberation. In 1984, Ren's father retired at the age of 75.In the early days of Ren Zhengfei's business, his parents lived a hard life in order to save money.After vicissitudes, before he had time to enjoy the blessings, his father quietly left. In 1995, my father bought a package of soft drinks from a small stall on the streets of Kunming. Due to poor fresh-keeping equipment and poor resistance of the elderly, he suffered from diarrhea after drinking and finally died of systemic failure. The death of his father made Ren Zhengfei feel the darkness of the world. In 2001, Ren Zhengfei went abroad with then-Vice President Hu Jintao for a visit. Right after the visit, he received a call from the company that his mother had been in a car accident.He hurried to Kunming overnight, seeing his mother lying on the hospital bed, dying and waiting for Pan'er to return, his heart was broken. The successive deaths of his parents left Ren Zhengfei with infinite regret.In the past, I was often either busy or on a business trip, and missed the opportunity to accompany my parents time and time again.Parents look forward to the stars and the moon, but they just don't see their son coming back.It's a pity that life is too short, they couldn't wait that long, and passed away one after another, leaving Ren Zhengfei, who has not fulfilled his filial piety, with lifelong regret. The love of parents is the most selfless, they will not care about anything with their children.My mother often calls and chatters with him: "You are on a business trip again", "Your body is not as good as mine", "You have more wrinkles than my mother", "Your walking is not as good as mine." Well, you are so sick at such a young age", "Feifei, diabetes, you have attended too many banquets, the disease will get worse faster, and your heart is not good"... What a strong family relationship behind this nagging !Before the mother died, she gave a sum of money to her sister, saying that it was waiting for her son to use it urgently. Ren Zhengfei felt very guilty about the departure of his parents because he did not fulfill the filial piety of his children.He wrote something like this: "After Huawei has grown to a large scale, the pressure of management transformation is very huge. Not only can I not take care of my parents, but I can't even take care of myself. My body is also exhausted during that period of time. My parents at this time Then I moved to Kunming to live with my sister. I also understood that if there is struggle, there will be sacrifice. Huawei's success has caused me to lose the opportunity and responsibility to honor my parents, and sacrifice my own health. "Looking back at the history I have gone through and asking myself, I have never been ashamed of my motherland, my people, my career and employees, and my friends. The only thing I am ashamed of is my parents. I didn't take care of them when I had no conditions. Didn't take care of them either. "Mom and Dad, thousands of voices are calling for you, and thousands of voices can't call you back." The deepest pain in the world is the departure of relatives. Ren Zhengfei experienced the death of his parents and was in great pain. He wrote "My Father and Mother" with tears and bitterness to pay tribute to his parents. Ren Zhengfei's parents had a huge influence on him, which he showed vividly in "My Father and Mother".The unselfishness of his parents made Ren Zhengfei selfless in his work, the prudence of his parents made Ren Zhengfei cautious everywhere, his parents' thirst for knowledge made Ren Zhengfei firm in his belief that knowledge is power, and his parents' loyalty to his career made Ren Zhengfei understand that if there is struggle, there will be sacrifices. In the minds of Chinese traditional scholar-bureaucrats, meritorious service, reputation, and morality are their greatest pursuits; blood lineage and fame are their greatest wishes.Therefore, the writer wrote to tell his children.Mao Zedong's education for his children was ingenious.He sent Mao Anying and Mao Anying to study at Moscow University.After Mao Anying returned to China, he was sent to the countryside to work in the fields. He even changed the surnames of his two daughters to Li.He taught the children to be down-to-earth, self-reliant, and constantly improving. As a "student" of Mao Zedong, Ren Zhengfei's tutor is very similar to Mao Zedong. Due to the myriad of tasks at Huawei, Ren Zheng has no time to take care of his children.When his son Ren Ping was very young, he asked Zheng Bao to be Ren Ping's teacher.Many years later, Zheng Baoyong still has a fresh memory of that experience: Ren Ping was very naughty at that time and often caused trouble outside.Therefore, in addition to positive persuasion and education, Zheng Baoyong can even use his belt to "speak". Most of the people around him doted on him openly or secretly. For Ren Ping’s future, Ren Zhengfei sent him to the University of Science and Technology of China in 1994 to study with the students of the University’s junior class. Why choose USTC instead of Peking University, Tsinghua University, or Huazhong University of Science and Technology, which has trained a large number of Huawei executives, including Zheng Baoyong and Li Yinan?This mystery was revealed in 1997 when Ren Zhengfei met with the visiting president of Huazhong University of Science and Technology Yang Shuzi.When talking about the education of Chinese universities, Ren Zhengfei made a comparison between HKUST and Huazhong University of Technology.He believes that with the development of the market economy and the improvement of material living standards, most students in Chinese universities generally lack the hard-working spirit of "hanging beams and stabbing stocks".Only in HKUST, not only are the classrooms brightly lit at night, but you can often see students who can't occupy a seat reading under the street lights.From this, he sighed: "China is so big that only the University of Science and Technology can accommodate a peaceful desk." After Ren Ping went to Hefei to study, Ren Zhengfei did not neglect his education.Ren Zhengfei would come to communicate with teachers almost every year during his visits to the Hefei office to learn about his son's study and life, and asked all teachers to be strict with Ren Ping. In 1997, Ren Zhengfei learned that Ren Ping often borrowed vehicles from Huawei's Hefei office. He immediately called Xu Zhijun, then vice president of the marketing department, and Liu Jingqing, director of the Hefei office.He also wrote instructions to the human resources department: "Hefei office director XX, if you lend the office car to Ren Ping in the future, I will punish you. You can't do him any favors in Hefei." In addition, Ren Zhengfei would communicate with the teachers of the junior class of the University of Science and Technology of China almost every year during his visits to Huawei's Hefei office to learn about his son's study and life, and asked all teachers to be as strict with Ren Ping as they are with other students. After 2000, Ren Ping went to the UK to study for an MBA. When he came back from the holidays to gather with friends, he occasionally complained about his father’s strict discipline: many Chinese students who studied with him in the UK had “family backgrounds”. In life, "spending money like water" means winning or losing tens of thousands of pounds a day in casinos. Many people have become VIP customers of local casinos and banks, and they have special Rolls Royce to pick them up.He looked much poorer, more like one of the many poor students, not entitled to the VIP treatment of local casinos and banks, luxury cars, and even foreign car insurance was too expensive to afford. After returning to China, Ren Ping worked for Huawei for a short time, and then started his own company, following the path his father had walked.
