In ancient times, there were emperors who chose princes, and now there are entrepreneurs who choose successors?
When it comes to choosing a successor for the enterprise, to put it bluntly, the entrepreneurial king has handed over his business map to a person who can defend the city.
It is worth saying here that the successor is not only a virtuous character, but also a successor who supports his own ideas and values!
Regarding the topic of Huawei's successor, many people on the Internet have analyzed what Ren Zhengfei said before.
If you want to become Ren Zhengfei's successor, you must meet the following points:
1. Foresight of value and ability to control the business ecological environment;
2. Have the vision of the global market pattern and the ability to execute transactions and service objectives;
3. Deep understanding of new technologies and customer needs, and the ability not to rest on its laurels;
4. Have the ability to simplify management of a huge number of business flows, logistics, capital flows, etc. of the company end-to-end.
Through the above 4 points, we found that in order to become the successor of Ren Zhengfei, we must not only understand technology and enterprise management, but also have a forward-looking business vision and the ability to control the business ecological environment!
To be honest, within Huawei, people like Xu Zhijun, Guo Ping, Liang Hua and others all meet these characteristics. There is nothing for reason, the reason is that these people have almost followed Ren Zhengfei since the establishment of Huawei, and they can only be said to be familiar with Ren Zhengfei's concept of running a business!
Today we do not talk about Huawei's successor, but want to talk about Huawei's "five tiger generals"! The reason why Huawei can achieve today's height is that on the one hand, Ren Zhengfei is indeed a corporate strategy master who is not born in this era, and on the other hand, it is inseparable from the contributions made by some core executives of Huawei to the company.
So the question is, which five tigers are the Huawei "five tigers" mentioned here? Please read on!
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="14" > Which five tigers will Huawei have? </h1>
Before talking about huawei five tiger generals, let's first pull a piece of history.
Friends who have watched the Romance of the Three Kingdoms know that Liu Bei was able to conquer Jingzhou and Yizhou, and Liu Bei's martial generals were powerful. Therefore, Liu Bei sealed five generals in one breath, and these five were called "Five Tiger Generals!" ”
They are Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Zhao Yun, Ma Chao, Huang Zhong and five others!
Similarly, Cao Cao also had "five sons of good generals" under his command, namely Zhang Liao, Le Jin, Yu Ban, Zhang Guo, and Xu Huang. Note that these five are not from the Cao clan, but they have made great achievements for Cao Wei!
The reason why I say such a small history, the main thing I want to express is that a person's strength is not great, only by gathering more powerful people together and doing one thing, that is really called great!
Well, nonsense is not much to say, next let's talk about what Huawei's "five tigers" under Ren Zhengfei's hands are, ranking in no particular order!
First, Yu Chengdong
Yu Chengdong joined Huawei in 1992 and is now in his 29th year at Huawei.
Yu Chengdong's work experience at Huawei is legendary, yu Chengdong has served as 3G product line director, wireless product line president, European area president, strategy and marketing system president, terminal company chairman /consumer business CEO, and HUAWEI CLOUD CEO.
In the eyes of some netizens, Yu Chengdong likes to talk big and crazy, so much so that many netizens call Yu Chengdong "Yu Dazu"! But within Huawei, Yu Chengdong is a well-known "fire-fighting general"!
Why is Yu Chengdong known as the "Fire Fighting General"? Because Yu Chengdong went to take over the mess every time, the result was that the stall was not rotten, and the business was also enlarged by Yu Chengdong.
For example, Huawei's share of global wireless network products eventually reached the first, which Yu Chengdong has the greatest credit. The slogan put forward by Yu Chengdong in wireless is "vision determines the realm, positioning determines the status", requiring leaders to have "the spirit of the king"!
Speaking of Huawei mobile phones, Huawei's mobile phones at that time could only be described by a "miserable" word. But when Yu Chengdong took over Huawei's mobile phone, Yu Chengdong shouted the slogan of not treating Samsung as an opponent and surpassing Apple.
At its peak, Huawei's mobile phone sales were already the second in the world, and if there were no small episodes in the middle, The sales of Huawei mobile phones were the first in the world.
Speaking of the recent HUAWEI CLOUD business, Huawei's cloud computing started very late, but also under the resource allocation of Yu Chengdong, the growth rate of HUAWEI CLOUD in the past 2 years has been very fierce, and it is said that it has recently snatched away many customers from Alibaba Cloud!
In a word, Yu Chengdong is a man who dares to fight a hard battle and can win a big battle. In Huawei, it is deeply respected by Ren Zhengfei!
Second place, Guo Ping
In 1987, Ren Zhengfei founded Huawei, and the following year Guo Ping began to follow Ren Zhengfei's career. How difficult Huawei's conditions were at that time, I believe that only the early Huawei people could understand it.
And the reason why Guo Ping traced Ren Zhengfei so early is related to Ren Zhengfei's personal charm, which is what people call the cloud from the dragon, the wind from the tiger, and the wind and clouds.
Guo Ping started as an intern at Huawei, and Guo Ping began to "emerge" at Huawei, mainly leading the Huawei team to win the battle against Cisco.
The battle between Huawei and Cisco can be said to be the key battle that determines Huawei's life and death. Cisco threatened to wipe out Huawei. In the midst of the crisis, Guo Ping provoked the girder, "there are thousands of tactics, the first one must dare to fight", Guo Ping said, no matter how difficult the environment is, we must face it, deal with it, and let it go.
Guo Ping led the team to fight in Cisco's lawsuit, and at the beginning the situation was very severe, from public opinion to the legal level, the situation was bad, but Guo Ping did not flinch and flinched, and finally resisted Cisco.
Since then, Huawei has accelerated the pace of overseas market expansion, laying the foundation for the new pattern of today's communications market.
Of course, what makes me most impressed with Guo Ping is that Guo Ping said that "the only one who can beat Huawei is Huawei itself"!
Third place, Xu Zhijun
Xu Zhijun joined Huawei in 1993 and is now huawei's rotating chairman. Xu Zhijun has a distinct personality and a keen sense of business smell, and Ren Zhengfei once praised him for "always smelling any opportunity before others"!
Compared with Yu Chengdong and Guo Ping, Xu Zhijun did not lead Huawei to fight a domineering battle. But Xu Zhijun is very experienced in company management.
For example, the letter to R&D employees written by Xu Zhijun in that year was highly approved by Ren Zhengfei. To tell the truth, Noh Wen is also a martial artist, which is the weather that a strong company should have. Obviously, Xu Zhijun's strength lies in Wen!
Fourth place, Meng Wanzhou
In the eyes of most netizens, Meng Wanzhou is the eldest daughter of Ren Zhengfei, known as Huawei's "eldest princess"!
Because of this layer of identity blessing, many people believe that Meng Wanzhou is based on Huawei due to Ren Zhengfei's relationship.
In fact, Meng Wanzhou has been working in Huawei for more than 20 years, Meng Wanzhou has a round face, long hair, speaks kindly and competently, acts low-key, rarely appears in the media, and the identity of Ren Zhengfei's daughter was not first exposed until 2013, but she is known as "Huawei's most powerful woman".
The reason why Meng Wanzhou is Huawei's most powerful woman is that on the one hand, Meng Wanzhou is Huawei's vice chairman and chief financial officer. On the other hand, Meng Wanzhou is still in Canada, and Meng Wanzhou is not only a daughter of Huawei, but also a good daughter of our Chinese nation!
Fifth place, Sun Yafang
Born in 1957, Sun Yafang graduated from the University of Electronic Science and Technology of China and worked as a communications warrior. Some commentators from the outside world believe that "Sun Yafang has good eloquence and demeanor, elegant demeanor, and is a master of diplomacy."
Sun Yafang was once named "China's Most Influential Business Woman" by Fortune Magazine, and was called a "more ruthless woman than Ren Zhengfei" at Huawei!
In the first few years of Huawei, Sun Yafang worked hard and complained, because of her pragmatic style, this female cadre will be deeply valued by Huawei's founder Ren Zhengfei and rise all the way in the company.
One year, Ren Zhengfei's body was exhausted and urgently needed to go to cancer surgery, because he was afraid of affecting the hearts of the army, Sun Yafang took Ren Zhengfei alone at the airport to the hospital for surgery, and took care of him at the bedside!
Sun Yafang once delivered a speech at the cadre work conference that "small victory depends on wisdom and great victory in Germany", and she stressed that there are only two criteria for Huawei's successors at all levels, one is to identify with Huawei's core values; the other is to have a spirit of self-criticism.
From Sun Yafang's speech, it can be seen that there is a style with Ren Zhengfei, so there is such a saying within Huawei, men have Ren Zhengfei, women have Sun Yafang!
Conclusion: From Huawei's "five tiger generals", we can see a truth! In order to make a great company, in addition to the founders must have a high pattern, there must also be a "single face" under the hands! Fortunately, Huawei has been a good general for so many years!
We believe that Ren Zhengfei will carry the unchanging faith of generations of Huawei people, and they will surely become great craftsmen born through suffering and nirvana.
