In 2018, Dong Mingzhu was removed from the position of chairman of Gree, and the reason was actually
No dividends were paid to shareholders. After 10 days of recall, the counter-offensive finally began,
At the shareholders' meeting, he shouted like a lion: "I will not give you a share for 5 years."
Red, what can you do with me, the more you give it to you, the more you talk. Two years
Giving you 18 billion is not enough? Is it up to you? depend on
It's our hearts. ”
Dong Mingzhu's words are actually not wrong at all, shareholders invest, and the most
After whether you can make money, in fact, it is only To see Dong Xiaozhu, Dong Mingzhu is there
The bold Iron Lady, who is also a capable leader, is divided into two years for employees
18 billion, which is difficult to be realistic in most enterprises, in fact, change
In a word, it is rare to do this in traditional manufacturing, but
Dong just did it, and this just proved her ability.
But this has fueled the appetite of shareholders, who want to get more
However, in the specific operation of this matter, it is opposed to Dong Mingzhu.
The reason why Dong Mingzhu made such remarks at the shareholders' meeting is because
She wanted to buy Yinlong, but the shareholders thought that the acquisition of Yinlong would cost a lot
Money, and this indirectly harms their interests, the major shareholders can
Enough to understand Dong Mingzhu's intentions, but the minority shareholders can only see what is in front of them
Interests, so the final acquisition of Yinlong failed, Dong Mingzhu was in a hurry to watch like that
show
Just when public opinion was abrupt, Dong Xiaozhu provoked the incident again, and she decided
Employees are set to raise salaries by 1,000 yuan per month, and install an air conditioner for each installer
Add 100 more pieces.
For this decision, many people think that she is taking revenge and gambling, face
For all kinds of doubts, Dong Mingzhu just smiled lightly: "I don't care about others."
Say what I do. ”
Then she explained the deep reason for doing so: "This salary increase,
In order to raise a minimum wage, I want Gree to go out
people are proud and also to set a benchmark for the industry
But no matter what Dong Mingzhu's original intention was, she still got this approach
Most people support a business leader when he understands compassion for his subordinates, too
Will win the respect of others.
There are many stories of Dong Mingzhu, a long time ago. That is, in 2004,
Zhuhai is ready to sell Gree 900 million to the world's top 500 companies in the United States Carrier, which is
Zhuhai is also considered to have the world's top 500.
In order to win over Dong Mingzhu, Carrier directly opened up 80 million years for her
Salary, you should know that Dong Xiaozhu's annual salary is only 2 million, just
It means that it is 40 times higher than the current annual salary.
But Dong Mingzhu did not appreciate it, and she even argued with the leaders on the board of directors
He stood up: "You don't want to sell Gree to Lao Mei."
The leader admonished Dong Mingzhu: "Give you an annual salary of 80 million, a lot!" You want
Contentment!"
Unexpectedly, Dong Mingzhu retorted: "This 80 million annual salary is indeed very attractive."
Force, but just give me 800 million, I don't agree. Maybe now
Force is nothing, but give me 20 years, Gree will definitely be able to become
The world's top 500. If it is acquired by Carrier now, then Gree will be
Utterly failed. “
However, although it has not been sold, the next development of Gree has also encountered great difficulties
Lack of money is the biggest problem! Just dong mingzhu for Gree next
When she was worried, a man came to her office with billions of dollars in cash
The office, expressed willing to buy 15% of Gree shares, this man is
Zhang Lei, founder of Gaoling Capital.
Dong Mingzhu, who has just experienced the carrier acquisition, is very repulsive to foreign capital.
Afraid of repeating the same mistakes, Zhang Lei spoke when she was in a dilemma, he said
Three promises directly dispelled Dong Mingzhu's worries
First, it does not affect the normal development of Gree
2. Do not interfere with any decision-making of Dong Mingzhu
We will not sell our shares for three or five years, and we will also take out 4% of them
Shares to incentivize management
A few words made Dong Mingzhu see that he really wanted to buy Gree shares
he agreed to his request. With the infusion of funds, plus
Under the leadership of Dong Mingzhu, Gree quickly became the dark horse of the air conditioning industry, and later more
It is to become the first national air conditioning brand, and the market value has also begun to soar all the way, Zhang
Lei's investment has paid him a lot of money.
Zhang Lei, who is it?
He was the founder of Hillhouse Capital, and for fifteen years, assets were made from zero
To 500 billion, known as the godfather of China's investment community, China's Buffy
special
Zhang Lei, why is it so cattle?
The investment community is comparable to Buffett's David Swenson, who once said: 1999
In 2008, I was a teacher and Zhang Lei was a student. In 2020, Zhang Lei is a teacher,
I am a student!
Buffett took the initiative to invite Zhang Lei to lunch and personally drove to pick up Zhang
Lei, when taking a group photo at dinner, Buffett took out his wallet and confronted Zhang Lei
Say: You manage money better than I manage, I will give you my wallet
Zhang Lei is very strong in investment, and his vision is very accurate, not only Gree's
Investors, or JD.com, Tencent, Meituan, Blue Moon and other large enterprises back
After the man.
Zhang Lei has been so good, but on many occasions, he is very modest and
And more than once I mentioned that I am very grateful to my mentor, the chief investment officer of Yale Fund
David Swenson. Because it was with the help of the teacher that Zhang Lei had the first
A start-up capital of $20 million + $1,000. To thank the mother
The school and the teacher, Zhang Lei also did 3 things that made people stunned,
First, it donated $8,888,888,880 to Yale, setting a record for a Chinese graduate
Student's personal donation record at Yale College.
Second, donate 300 million yuan to Renmin University to express gratitude to Renmin University
Third, it took 5 years to create "Value", and invested in life.
The feelings of life experience are shared, and all the manuscripts are spent on public welfare
karma
Zhang Lei laughed and said: Founded Hillhouse for 15 years, invested in more than 800 enterprises, the purpose
It's all about writing this book, which shows the value of this book. This book was published
Table, immediately got Dong Mingzhu, Ma Huateng, Li Yanhong, Feng Lun and other 50
Strong recommendation from a number of big guys.
Zhang Lei said: His greatest pleasure is to help outstanding people and enterprises
Now of greater value, he also wrote "Value" to help those who are confused
people and businesses take fewer detours.
