Chinese heroes don't ask about their origins, many rich people were actually just ordinary people before they started out, but they have become rich people by their own efforts. For example, when Li Ka-shing was young, he was poor and white.
Li Ka-shing lost his father at the age of 14, and after that, he worked as a runner in a tea house to earn money to support his family. Until the age of 72, Li Ka-shing finally became the richest man in China.
Wang Jianlin was actually just a small civil servant before he made his fortune. But Wang Jianlin later became the richest man in China, and now he owns more than 400 Wanda Plazas in China. Some netizens met Wang Jianlin to go to fitness before. The richest man fitness pomp is different, Wang Jianlin is exercising on the side, accompanied by two or three fitness trainers, and a group of bodyguards waiting next to him.
Of course, with Wang Jianlin's wealth, these are very common. Wang Jianlin's more than 400 Wanda Plazas can receive more than 40 billion yuan in rent every year. Wang Jianlin once said that if he lacks money, he has more than 100 billion shares in Wanda, and he can cash out at will.
In 2012, 2013 and 2017, Wang Jianlin was elected China's richest man three times. Wang Jianlin was not born into some rich family, and many people always speculate that Wang Jianlin's wife is not small. In fact, Wang Jianlin's father-in-law and mother-in-law are just ordinary people.
Wang Jianlin went to the army when he was young, and later he retired from the army and transferred to Dalian. Many people think that Wang Jianlin is from Dalian, but in fact he is from Sichuan. After working as a civil servant in Dalian for many years, he was transferred to work in a real estate company. Wang Jianlin just began to deal with real estate.
Later, Wang Jianlin chose to go to the sea to start a business. His first pot of gold was not easy to earn. Wang Jianlin once said, but he took loans from several enterprises, and the interest rate was very high. Wang Jianlin relied on borrowed loans and then developed a project for the renovation of three old ones in large quantities.
Wang Jianlin later said that at that time, a large number of property prices were about 1,000 yuan a square meter. Wang Jianlin calculated, if he sold at this price, he would definitely lose money on this project. So Wang Jianlin thought of a way to sell the price of 1,000 yuan to 1,500 yuan.
Of course, if you want to sell it for 1500 yuan, you naturally have to come up with something different. After some investigation, Wang Jianlin found that the products in the Dalian market at that time were relatively backward, so Wang Jianlin ran to Hong Kong, learned the design concept of Hong Kong houses, and introduced a lot of advanced design.
As a result, after Wang Jianlin's project was launched on the market, it was a great success. His risky act was also a success. Subsequently, Wang Jianlin began to launch many new projects in Dalian and other cities.
In the mid-90s, Wang Jianlin began to engage in football, when the Dalian Wanda football team swept the first class and won the championship for several years in a row. With the success of football, Wang Jianlin also developed Wanda's business to more places.
Many people don't know that between real estate and commercial real estate, Wang Jianlin has also made many attempts to transform. Around 2000, Wang Jianlin felt that doing real estate was too tiring, one project after another, and the previous project made money, not necessarily guaranteed that the later project would continue to make money, and the business was not accumulated.
So Wang Jianlin began to transform, in fact, many people don't know, when trying to transform, Wang Jianlin even opened a factory. After many failures, Wang Jianlin decided to do commercial real estate. He finally thought that he felt that at least opening a shopping mall, in terms of building a shopping mall, they understand, then introduce some operational talents, then it can be done.
After the launch of the first Wanda Plaza, it took Wang Jianlin 8 years to build more than 20 shopping malls. This transition was also very difficult at first. Commercial real estate investment is large, and the payback period is very long. Later, Wang Jianlin came up with a way, he built some shops and apartments around the mall for sale.
Because many people are optimistic about the development of Wanda and the driving effect of these assets in the future, they invest in it. Wang Jianlin used the funds from the sale of the property to build a shopping mall. Wang Jianlin said that only 20% of the Wanda Plaza has its own funds, the remaining 30% comes from banks, and another 50% comes from sales properties. Wang Jianlin's success did not come overnight, but also through his hard work.
