Today is Sunday, is it okay?
I remember that we once shared a sentence with you: the meaning of people's work is to work hard for their own happiness.
Perhaps the lack of enthusiasm and self-worth is a more frustrating reality than the "social animal" fatigue.
"To live, to live."
"What ideal is there in life?"
"A stable job, enough. Hobbies can be realized in spare time. ”
Do these words sound very familiar? These few words are enough to make us cowardly as we try to go in the direction we want, to retreat to the "stable" status quo that allows us to keep to ourselves.
I have always liked Xiao Bei's words: I wish you to find your own freedom in the bonded life.
Author Zhang Linyue
My Chinese name: Zhang Linyue, English name: Jenny, went to a little school, did not reach the level of a bully. My friend Xiaobei called me: Yue Yue.
Many times we are faced with this trade-off: at the two ends of the scale, the far side you want to run to, and the one you don't want to abandon behind.
Mr. LEO, President of the Belgian Company Lima, an authentic Belgian.
Mr. LEO and I met in 2005, and it takes a lot of chance for us to meet, and as long as there is any detail that is not coincidental, my fate with Lima cannot happen.
Life is a myriad of coincidences, and the word coincidence is very interesting, she represents uncertainty, can be lucky, may also be unfortunate. Everyone's life probably has a natural pattern, we can change, but there is no way to grasp, everything can not happen in the moment, it is likely that he began his foreshadowing many years ago. The sunlight we see now, he produced many light years ago.
At that time, I was doing some chemical import and export trade, one sunny afternoon that summer, the phone on my desk rang, and the other party was fluent in English, I was a little excited, because the previous trade work was usually done through companies with Chinese agents, and then I talked to him in suffocating English, he seemed to be able to understand me, which made me very excited, I told him my mailbox number, at that time I really hated why can't I have a short mailbox? Why is it so complicated, what if the other party hears it wrong? Luckily, he didn't remember wrong and I received his email very quickly. And so, as if by God/God's arrangement, Mr. LEO and I met and cooperated. My gut feeling, he trusted me very much, from the beginning.
In the summer of 2006, we met for the first time. He was the first European I had agreed to meet in my life. I was very impressed with his first side, he was very tall and handsome, and from his sunny smile, he must have been a very optimistic person. In my memory, at that time, I was a very complicated person, no matter in any way, I could not be said to be a happy person, and there were always many worries. The first time we met, the most profound sentence he left for me was:
No Rose without Thrones.
This seemingly ordinary sentence has given me a lot of strength, so that I no longer think about the unnecessary things that will make me sad, but more to put energy into work, and our cooperation is also pleasant.
In the fall of 2007, he suddenly emailed me and asked if I would be interested in joining his company and working with him. In response to the requirements of major customers, Lima Company needed to transfer the business of the Chinese trade sector to Lima Hong Kong Company, at that time, I really did not know which tendon to smoke, I actually said let me consider it. If I had the same perception as I do now, I would not have hesitated.
The level of cognition determines the height you can reach, and only when there is a goal can there be the momentum to struggle. At a certain level, your thinking and perspective will be limited in it, only by breaking the shackles of the level, cognitive upgrading touches a higher level, you will find a completely different new world, thoughts will be like open valves, gushing out of infinite fresh and energetic thoughts.
Growing up is constantly overturning one's old ideas and experiencing a deeper cognitive transformation. The change and upgrading of self-perception is the essence of a person's growth, and our cognition determines our height.
That's how I started working for Lima Hong Kong in Belgium.
Because in the same way, I also trusted him completely, and that was it from the beginning. He is one of the few big bosses in the world who is truly responsible for his employees. He is the warmest and brightest sunshine in my life. At that time, I was really stupid, but also to consider, if I did not turn the corner, then my life would not be another situation? Working at Lima Hong Kong has taught me to work with an international team to work efficiently, and the high-intensity work has made my comprehensive work quality improve by leaps and bounds, the way of thinking about problems has begun to change, and I have gradually realized that my outlook on life, values and world outlook has become clear. I am very grateful to the company for giving me such a heavy responsibility for so many years, and for allowing me unlimited freedom of working time and space. I am also especially grateful for every minute and every second of the twelve years I have spent in Lima. I have to say that I am a very fortunate person, I have been associated with Lima for 12 years. I have undergone several very critical transformations at Lima.
The Belgian company Lima was founded in 1999, the full english name: LEMAGRO NV. At the beginning of our establishment, we had a joint venture plant in Italy (a fertilizer factory with a history of 100 years) and a small laboratory plant in Belgium, mainly producing dry powder water-soluble fertilizers. By providing the global market with the most advanced and effective quality products in the world at that time, Lima's earliest customers were accumulated. In 2002, based on the breakthrough of new product technology and the emergence of excellent partners, Lima built a factory in Latakia, Syria (a very beautiful Syrian seaport city) and began to produce GEL gel fertilizers, special formulations, for the convenience and satisfaction of Lima's customers in the Middle East, Africa, the Mediterranean and the Red Sea. In 2006, the main formulation of LIMA GEL gel products was finalized, which opened its glorious era in the global market to this day.
In 2008, due to the replacement of the other high-level of the Italian joint venture factory, also at the time when Lima water-soluble fertilizer technology breakthrough and production equipment needed to be updated, in the need to update the equipment to meet the concept of production upgrade formula, the new generation of successors of the original joint venture factory had serious differences with Mr. LEO, and they were reluctant to innovate. After fruitless negotiations, Lima finally decided to fully divest from the Italian joint venture factory and quickly invested in the construction of a new production line in Syria that can meet the cutting-edge dry powder formulation technology. Through continuous construction, Lima's factory in Syria has become an enviable garden factory. Partners in Syria's large-scale greenhouse agricultural base, can also provide the most convenient test base for the company's newly developed formulas and products, Syria has a vertical world diversified climate can simulate different ecological environments, can grow most varieties of agricultural crops in the world, for the success and smooth production of products to provide a steady stream of strong guarantee and support.
Unexpectedly, in early 2012, the United States launched a heinous Syrian war, which put Lima's production base in Syria in a huge dilemma. The leaders of the company foresaw the irreversible situation in Syria in the future, and we reacted quickly, shipping out most of the main equipment and raw materials for production before the political situation in the local area deteriorated, unfortunately the infrastructure of the garden factory was occupied and destroyed, and the original very good colleagues of the factory could no longer continue to work in the fight to defend the country. As a result, Lima was tested as never before, and re-integrated the factory in Belgium, the company name was integrated: LIMA EUROPE NV, and in just 3 months, we quickly resumed production in Belgium. After the baptism of war, we define ourselves from a new perspective, and Lima is more calm and determined. Our values have since become more quintessential and reached unprecedented heights. We also pay more firm attention to and pursue the accumulation of technology and human capital, leaving aside all the things that are not important in the first place that are illusory and confusing us and that we can see more clearly. Lima is simpler and purer to strive for the ideals she admires in her heart. After suffering and re-recuperation, Lima entered a new period of rapid development, launched a series of gel series biostimulants, and established a test base for Lebanon's climate diversification Lima products. Especially at the end of 2015, the world's unique 5 series of products successful trial production, in 2016, the world began to receive trial orders for 5 series products, in 2017 began to formally commercial production of 5 series products, Lima 5 series is willing to more people who seek knowledge, exploration, innovation, can deeply understand it, use it.
Belgian Lima company in 2005 in Hong Kong established Lima Oriental company and then entered China, when set up a representative office in Beijing, China, Xiaobian is in the autumn of 2007 to join Lima company, experienced all stages of Lima company from 2007 to the present development, I admire us Lima people from the heart, bold, courageous, rapid response, love and dedication to new technologies, full commitment to market problems, to others think that insignificant, dispensable environmental protection problems, Lima has always been a company that has to consider and implement every aspect. Since 2017, we have also made new breakthroughs in the research of bio-fertilizer and biopesticide technology, and have established independent companies in Germany and Spain. We at Lima have always attached great importance to in-depth cooperation with old customers and loyal core customers. These new technologies and breakthroughs in new areas will enrich our agricultural solutions and will also inject new impetus into our loyal core customers, and we will move forward together.
There is still a difference between our factory and the factory that makes the raw materials bigger, and it is not clear from the outer frame structure where our strength is, and when we see the product, we can see the difference with the effect. There are also many technical cooperation with lima companies and the provision of programs and cooperation projects for large European special fertilizer companies, so the industry also knows our position in the field of efficient plant nutrition in the world, and we are also very clear about what we want to do and what we are doing. I don't know what the unexpected world thinks. Those who see the phenomenon and those who see the essence are originally different groups of people.
Lima in a situation without the support of sales and business team, the product can strongly occupy China's key high-end water-soluble fertilizer market, one, we have met particularly good customers, two, the natural flow of products have a strong ability, use is repeat customers. The values of each enterprise are different, resulting in different directions of development, Lima Company is such a company that insists on pursuing technological innovation, bringing unlimited convenience and stable benefits to users, leading the world with core technical advantages, we truly solve the most needed safety, effectiveness, conservation and environmental protection problems in agriculture. We promote and practice the concept of efficient, non-toxic and circular agriculture. This is also moral and social responsibility.
I hope you can also come close to me and join our Lima family so that you can really get to know us.
The author is based in Lima, Belgium
This is our Lima, a company that is different, unique, and worthy of admiration in such a world. What Lima has experienced has also made us a really strong company, facing any crisis, we are more calm and determined, and we can quickly recover from life. Our expectations of the market are not in a hurry, as long as we find the right people, we will advance and retreat together, such a strategic cooperation, can last for a hundred years... Union makes us stronger (the values of the United Kingdom of Belgium) and Lima's values towards its partners coincide.
This is also the story of me and Mr. LEO. Mr. LEO's path to Chinese agriculture is just beginning, and he fully trusts me and trusts and relies on a great family. We will do our best to serve our Chinese agriculture and our Chinese Lima people.
Those who know others are wise, and those who know themselves are wise.
We need to understand not only others, but also ourselves.
What the world needs to iterate most is not just the product, but the most important thing is the people. Understand the change, it is better to be good at evolution, evolve with this ever-changing world, always have a zero mentality, abandon your success at any time, and crawl forward.
