Chapter 1093: Luck or Not Luck

Feng Yiping stood behind the scenes full of steel bars and pipes, with his hands in his pockets, listening leisurely to the host in front of him saying the introduction, "When a person has too many titles, it is actually difficult to introduce him. I encountered such a difficulty today,"

"In the end, in order to be original, I had to introduce him in the way that everyone often introduces him, still using numbers, but this time the numbers are not how young he is, or how much he has achieved, etc., which are familiar numbers to everyone,"

"The set of numbers I want to introduce today comes from Baidu's statistics," the host said with a smile, "Of course, for well-known reasons, I am not sure whether Baidu will be so willing to provide relevant data about him in the future,"

"This must have cost a lot of advertising fees," Feng Yiping smiled and whispered to Fang Yingzhi.

The girl from the TV station who was standing with them and wearing a headset did not refute and laughed.

Feng Yiping is a major shareholder of Google. In the future, when Google enters China, his relationship with Baidu should not be as good as it is now.

"As of the end of last month, 78 million domestic users searched for him 12,783,528 times online, which is 25 times the total number of searches for the other 99 richest people on the Hurun Rich List,"

"This may not be intuitive enough. Let's compare another data. Hong Kong star Andy Lau seems to have a relationship with him. The number of searches by the end of last month was more than 25 million times, and his data is half of that of Andy Lau,"

"As of the end of last month, Baidu's total number of searches was close to 10 billion times, that is, on average, there is one search about him in less than 1,000 searches, which shows how popular he is,"

Feng Yiping can now be 100% sure that Baidu must have paid a lot of advertising fees this time.

"I think everyone already knows who he is. Let's welcome Feng Yiping with warm applause,"

Fang Yingzhi followed the staff to the side and made a cheering gesture to Feng Yiping. Feng Yiping nodded. Unfortunately, it would be great if Zhang Yan or the mother of his two children stood there with their children to cheer him up.

He nodded to Fang Yingzhi, and walked out of the sliding wall with a smile, "Welcome," the host greeted him with a smile.

He was still in his usual suit, but at this time, he looked much younger than he would later see.

"Thank you, host, hello, everyone," Feng Yiping added quickly when he saw the people sitting in the front row, "hello, teachers,"

In the front row, there were several professors from the school.

This should be the one with the best attitude among the guests on the dialogue, and of course, the youngest one, looking like a student.

He was dressed like a student, with a white shirt, a camel-colored sweater, and khaki pants, which was really academic.

The host's first question was also related to the school.

"Yiping, we all know that you started your business in high school and it's going very well, so why did you insist on finishing college?"

"I believe you've heard that there's a popular saying now that some people succeed in starting a business because they dropped out of college to start a business, such as Bill Gates, Steve Jobs, Michael Dell, Larry Ellison, etc. Many people who finish college honestly may not have the opportunity to work later,"

"Since you were already quite successful before going to college, why did you go to college? We all know that in order to get into a good university, high school life is not easy,"

"Because they are geniuses, I'm not," Feng Yiping said with a smile.

"If you say you're not a genius, I guess the audience here won't agree," the host laughed.

"Geniuses, like beauties, are also divided into levels," Feng Yiping said.

His metaphor is quite novel, "So what level of beauty do you think you are a genius?" The host tried to make fun of it.

"The girl next door?" Feng Yiping didn't mind making everyone laugh.

"I want to say that everyone's success is actually not replicable. We only see the two commonalities of those college dropouts and successful entrepreneurship, and simply list this as a causal relationship, which is really not rigorous,"

"Starting a business is not an easy thing anywhere. We know that there are a few dropouts who have successfully started a business, but I believe that the number of people who choose to drop out of school to start a business but fail is at least a hundred times more than them."

"For people with ordinary qualifications like me who want to start a business, it is very beneficial to receive complete higher education, and one thing is certain, although they choose to drop out of school to start a business, dropping out does not mean not learning,"

"Yes, but they may choose to study selectively with clear goals, so that learning efficiency is higher," the host affirmed his statement.

"What I want to ask is that you have achieved some success in your career, and the study in high school was very hard. Have you never wavered?"

"When I was in junior high school, to be precise, during the summer vacation of the first year of junior high school, I sneaked into the University of Finance and Economics in our provincial capital and got the textbooks of "Monetary Finance" and "Investment". I was very happy at that time, haha, I thought I could teach myself immediately and then seize the opportunity to practice a few times,"

"Who knew that I would be stumped as soon as I opened the book, with advanced mathematics and many professional English terms. If I studied by myself, not only would the efficiency be low, but I might also read the scriptures incorrectly. So I thought at that time that I should study systematically under the guidance of a teacher, so that the effect would be better,"

"Did you read the professional textbooks of the university in junior high school?" the host asked.

"Yes, because I am very interested in this aspect,"

"What happened later? Did you stop reading because you couldn't understand it?"

"The person who lent me the book is now a senior executive of our group. He also gave me his notes. I bought some reference books myself. I wrote to him for help when I didn't understand something. I finished reading those two books in the second year of junior high school. Of course, I didn't understand them very well,"

"Isn't this a genius? You can think so far and work so hard in junior high school. Let's applaud Yiping's efforts,"

"Sure enough, no one's success is lucky. Is your start-up capital also related to this aspect?"

This is also an opportunity for Feng Yiping to tell the source of his first pot of gold in person, so as to wash away the suspicion of "original sin" that many people are talking about.

"Yes, when I was in high school, I had a side income that my parents didn't know about, and then I secretly put some of the things I learned by myself into practice in the financial market. Thanks to the environment at that time, I was lucky enough to accumulate some funds, which was the start-up capital for my development."

"It's not easy to be rich and have a good career, and still insist on studying in high school," the host praised him again.

"I made money through learning, so I am more interested in learning," Feng Yiping stated his reasons bluntly.

"If I can make so much money by self-study, wouldn't I make more money if the teacher taught me more professional knowledge? Do you think so?"

"I really think so," Feng Yiping smiled, "and I insisted on studying in high school at that time, and there was another consideration. My parents are very traditional. Like many parents, they want their children to be successful. Getting into a good university is definitely something that will make them proud and happy. Just for this purpose, it is worth it for me to study in high school well."

The audience who have already married are all applauding. Alas, other people's children, how can they be so sensible.

"I heard that when you were in high school, in addition to studying and starting a business, you also did another very important thing, writing books,"

"Yes, I wrote a novel, and I also sorted out some of my thoughts on business repeatedly,"

The host picked up two books, "This is the result of Yiping's writing books in the intense high school. This novel should be very familiar to many viewers at the scene and in front of the TV. It has been sold in both sides of the Taiwan Strait and Hong Kong, with a cumulative sales of nearly 2 million copies,"

"This one is not only known to many people in both sides of the Taiwan Strait and Hong Kong, but also in many places around the world. I have read it more than once. This is the blue ocean strategy,"

"When writing these two books, did you foresee the results later?"

"Really not," Feng Yiping shook his head, "I wrote novels purely for money at the time, because I was lucky enough to publish some works in junior high school, which had a certain response, and the royalties I received were, it can be said, It greatly improved the lives of my family and myself, so when I needed money later, I habitually thought about this aspect. "

"Blue Ocean Strategy, at that time, I actually hadn't sublimated it into a theory. I just kept thinking about how to start a business successfully with my weak strength at that time. Later, it was slowly formed in practice."

"I heard that if it wasn't for your own magazine, you didn't think about publishing it?"

"In fact, after publishing it in the magazine, I didn't think about publishing it in a collection. There are many reasons why I published it in the magazine at the beginning. One is that I figured out some things by myself. Young people like to show off. I just happened to have a platform, so I put it on it."

"Secondly, it was mainly because the magazine was just founded at that time, and it was difficult to commission articles, so I thought about doing it myself, having enough food and clothing, and saving some costs," Feng Yiping laughed.

"I didn't expect that this would make your cutting-edge magazine a success to a certain extent."

"Lucky, really lucky," Feng Yiping said, "How could I have thought that there would be such a high response later?"

It would be strange if I didn't expect it! At that time, those were all arranged one after another.

"So, when I heard that Harvard Business School Press approached you, you were not happy?"

"I was a little reluctant at the time. I saw that the things I had been thinking about seemed to be quite popular and could drive the sales of the magazine. Naturally, I didn't want to publish it all at once. Wouldn't that mean fewer people would buy my magazine?"

"I have to explain to everyone what kind of publishing house Harbin Business School Press is," the host pointed to the line of words on the book and said, "This is the world's most famous and authoritative business book publishing house. It publishes no more than 50 business books a year. The requirements are very high and the review is very strict. It is the dream publishing house of many experts around the world."

"And among these 50 books, only a few are recommended. Before this, there were no books by Chinese scholars. He picked up Yiping's book, which can be said to have helped us break a record, and it is also their annual key project."

"To be honest, I never expected that this little thing I came up with would be so popular. It was really a fluke."

"Yiping, you are so humble. You say all the achievements you have made now are a fluke, but from your experience over the years, it is not a fluke at all. Let's listen to what Yiping's mentor at university, Dean Zhao of Tsinghua School of Economics and Management, said."

"I think Yiping's current achievements are indeed a fluke," Dean Zhao said holding the microphone, "He was lucky to be born in such a good era, which is his biggest luck,"

"Besides that, everything is not a fluke, and it is inseparable from his hard work,"

"The first time I came into contact with him happened to be related to his magazine mentioned by the host. We all know that when his magazine was published, in a general sense, he was already a successful person at that time. Rich,"

"However, in order to make his magazine successful, he was like an ordinary salesman, promoting his magazine to the teachers in our school from office to office,"

"At that time, in order to sell his magazine to me, he waited for me outside the office building in the snow for at least three days,"

"Moreover, during that period of time, in his spare time, he could be said to have traveled to all the well-known universities in the capital to sell them in person. Which rich man can do this?"

In this regard, Feng Yiping is actually not as good as the dean thought. The reason why he did this is because his own promotion effect is the best.

"The data mentioned by the host at the beginning show that he is very popular. Many people should have read the reports about him, and there are many articles reporting on his work and rest. I originally considered myself a model worker, but with him Compared with him, he is really far behind. Compared with his peers, he is even further behind. He has good talent, is so eager to learn, and works so hard. Therefore, I feel that he is as successful as he is today. No fluke,”

"Thank you, dean, for the compliment," Feng Yiping understood. The dean said this in response to the discussions that were unfavorable to Feng Yiping a few days ago.

The host also thought of this, "Yiping, I heard that you have invested more than one billion in your hometown. Your starting point is not to make money, but to change the backwardness of your hometown and let everyone live a shorter life?"

"Because everyone knows that considering the conditions in your hometown, investing there is really not a wise choice,"

"I'm really not as noble as you say. Since it is a commercial investment, naturally there is still a demand for profit, otherwise such a thing will not last long,"

"The geographical location of my hometown is not ideal, but it also has advantages. The land price is low, and all employees have the strongest enthusiasm and sense of responsibility. I cannot encounter it when investing in other places."

Feng Yiping didn't want to label himself as a silly person. Even if he was, he shouldn't say it himself.

"I won't deny that it is indeed a consideration to take care of my hometown, but I think there is nothing to say about it. Just like a child who has to support his parents, when he is able, he should consider his hometown. Isn't that a natural thing?"

There was another round of applause from below.

"Although Yiping always says that all his achievements and achievements are due to luck, we will understand from his junior high school career that this is definitely not a fluke. All his success today is definitely not a fluke. It is absolutely It was achieved through his own hard work and hard work."

The host makes periodic summaries.
