Can you imagine your legs never being able to walk again? Can you imagine that you can no longer go out shopping with friends for physical reasons? Can you bear to see you differently because of these people?
All these unimaginable encounters have been placed by God on a cute girl, she is only 85 centimeters tall, was carried by the famous Mohe entrepreneur Zhu Xiaohong who became a multi-millionaire by selling cosmetics.
The beginning of the ugly duckling
In May 1971, Zhu Xiaohong was born in a poor family in Hulan County, Heilongjiang, and a loud baby cried, and the Zhu family's child was born.
The child symbolizes the continuation of life, the birth of the newborn is undoubtedly a happy and sweet burden for the family, waiting for the Zhu family outside the delivery room, the face is full of joyful smiles.
But this joy was quickly dissipated by a scream, and when the mother hugged the child, she found that the child's calf was only the thickness of a thumb.
Everyone stood still, looking at the child in front of him whose eyes had not yet opened, his face was solemn, he didn't say a word, just when everyone didn't know how to be good, the most experienced, the oldest grandfather said: "This should be a congenital disease, let's go to the hospital to check it out." ”
The doctor quickly gave the diagnosis: it was due to the child's mother being severely malnourished when she was pregnant, the child was not well developed due to calcium deficiency, and she suffered from congenital hypochondriasis when she was born, weighing less than 3 pounds.
This result struck everyone's head like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, and the mother blamed herself and collapsed, and in the days that followed, they took their children to and from the major hospitals, but the hope was gradually consumed by the doctors' shaking heads and sighs.
The family was not rich, and seeing a doctor for her also consumed the few remaining family funds, there was no way, the family could only temporarily give up seeking medical treatment.
But giving up the consultation does not mean giving up this lovely child, on the contrary, the family is more and more protective of her, giving her family all the love and care.
As Zhu Xiaohong grew up slowly, her legs gradually could not support the gradually growing body, and she watched her former friends carry their cute little school bags to the kindergarten, but her range of activities was on the small bed in the house.
Grandpa looked at his increasingly sullen granddaughter and took her to the kindergarten, so that he could finally let Grandpa hold her and sit in the back of the classroom to listen.
But the good times are not long, the primary school has started, Grandpa will carry her to school as usual, this will not work, the school said that there has never been a parent to accompany the class, which will affect the psychological development of other children.
Grandpa said to let herself be here, after school he will come to pick up, the school said that there are too many uncertainties in the school, what accidents the child has, the school can not bear the responsibility, Grandpa listened to a word, held the child and returned home.
Savage growth
Grandpa had gone to private school before, and he was also more good at traditional Chinese medicine, engraving, and repairing watches, grandpa said they didn't teach you, I taught you, looked at the granddaughter's unhappy little face, and grandpa patiently comforted her and explained the reason with her.
Grandpa also taught her self-acceptance, and this kind and wise old man took her to buy teaching materials, which were bought from the first grade to the third year of high school.
As she struggled to grow up, her three younger brothers also came into this world one after another.
She Zhu Xiaohong is unfortunate, her natural disability is like an eagle being cut off its wings, but she is undoubtedly lucky, she has not been abandoned, she has loving her parents, taught her to grow and learn from her grandfather, she was educated cheerful and lively, not at all because of her body and inferiority.
In 1987, because his father failed to invest, not only lost the money invested, but also signed a lot of foreign debts, Zhu Xiaohong wanted to share his father's worries and difficulties, and wanted to go to the society.
So, in 1988, 17-year-old Zhu Xiaohong was held by her brother, and with a few thousand yuan from her father, she began her entrepreneurial journey.
She first rented a counter in the mall to sell cosmetics, and at the beginning there were many people around the counter, but these people did not come to buy cosmetics, but to watch the lady boss who was only a few years old.
She did not feel inferior and embarrassed, but seized the business opportunity, shouted loudly to buy and sell, and personally tried on makeup, and also helped customers make up.
As her makeup skills got better and better, her optimism and cheerfulness infected the people around her, and she also had more and more customers and friends, thus establishing her initial connections.
Break the cocoon into a butterfly
Mencius said, "The heavens will send down a great task to the People of Si, and they will first suffer their minds, strain their bones, starve their bodies, empty their bodies, and act in a disorderly manner, so that they will be moved to endure, and they will benefit from what they cannot." ”
In this way, Zhu Xiaohong spent 6 years from the cosmetics industry into the clothing industry and video industry, earning her first bucket of gold, a total of more than 800,000 yuan, which was undoubtedly a huge amount of money at the time.
But the strong Zhu Xiaohong did not stop here, did not live up to her grandfather's teaching to her, she turned the battlefield to agricultural and sideline products and grain enterprises.
She pointed her gun at the gap in the northeast grain industry, acting as a middleman between farmers and buyers, and earning the difference in price.
After this road was opened, she thought of her hometown, her hometown also has a vast black land, soybean production is extremely high, if you can sell the soybeans in your hometown, it is a huge business opportunity, but also a good deed to benefit her hometown.
After deciding, she immediately took action, but the business industry was still different from the food industry, and it was inconvenient for her to walk, so she asked her brother to hold her and persuade her one by one.
With her unremitting efforts, her career has become bigger and bigger, and gradually stabilized, and by 2010, Zhu Xiaohong has become a small and accomplished entrepreneur, involved in various fields.
One year she traveled to Heilongjiang, saw the blueberries planted by the local people, and thought that blueberries can extract anthocyanins, and a wonderful business opportunity appeared in Zhu Xiaohong's eyes.
She began to invest in the construction of a factory specializing in anthocyanins for cosmetic companies, and in just a few years her value doubled several times.
No one knows how many blank eyes she encountered when she started her business, how much ridicule she was ridiculed, how many closed doors she ate, and what kind of setbacks she experienced.
When we met her, she was already Zhu Xiaohong, a famous inspirational entrepreneur worth tens of millions, and probably people who had been drenched in rain wanted to hold up umbrellas for others.
She dedicates 20 million a year to philanthropy to help people with disabilities, her optimism, perseverance, kindness, like the sun, she has made herself and helped others.
