Lei Jun told such a story in a recent speech. On September 2, 2019, Xiaomi's stock price fell by 8 yuan, which was already waist-cut compared to the IPO price. Many Xiaomi investors are about to collapse, and some even think that they can fall 4 blocks.
During that time, I was very depressed and did not want to meet investors. But one investor insisted on seeing me, and as soon as he sat down and said a few words of greeting, he said unceremoniously, how you made me lose so much money, I really don't know how you did it.
Then, from xiaomi's management, strategy, production, trained me to be like a primary school student, training for more than an hour, my shirt was wet at the time, after he left, at that moment I sat alone in the office, really very desperate.
Later, someone broke the news in the circle of friends that the person who trained Lei Jun to sweat was Ma Yun's wife Zhang Ying. However, lei Jun soon came out to refute the rumors, saying that he and Zhang Ying were good friends, and the topic of investment in the speech had nothing to do with her.
Regardless of whether the person who trained Lei Jun is Zhang Ying or not, one thing that can be determined is that Zhang Ying is definitely a cruel character, and if she can send her husband to the position of the richest man, she must not be an ordinary woman.
Ma Yun said that his level in Alibaba is M10, which is very high, but there is another person who is higher than his own level, which is M11, and only one person has this level, she is his wife, Zhang Ying.
Ma Yun and Zhang Ying were college classmates, and Ma Yun's appearance at that time was inversely proportional to his wisdom in his own words, and Zhang Ying was the school flower at that time. Although Ma Yun has a lot of characteristics in appearance, he has outstanding abilities and talents and serves as the president of the student council. Zhang Ying was conquered by Ma Yun's talent, and the two became lovers.
After graduation, both went to work at the university, and later Ma Yun came out to start a business, and his wife Zhang Yingyi also resigned to start a business with her husband. When Alibaba was first established, the office address was in the lakeside garden of Ma Yun and Zhang Ying's wedding house, and Zhang Ying took on the role of logistics director, buying vegetables, cooking, cleaning, and more than a dozen people were responsible for eating and drinking Lasa.
It is precisely because of his wife's strength in the rear that Ma Yun can devote himself to finding investment for Alibaba, and finally pulled the investment of Goldman Sachs and Son Zhengyi SoftBank, and Alibaba has since soared, becoming the leader of China's e-commerce industry in just a few years.
Just when Alibaba was in the middle of the day, Ma Yun's family had an accident, because both people were too busy at work, and their sons were not taken care of, and as a result, they became obsessed with online games, and their academic performance plummeted.
Ma Yun was very anxious, he and Zhang Ying talked once, let her return to the family, because the child this time is the most critical period, if you don't care, his life will be over, Zhang Ying did not say that he gave up his job to return to the family to become a full-time mother to take care of the child. Therefore, Ma Yun often says in public that he is very grateful to his wife Zhang Ying.
Last year's 520 Ma Yun took his wife Zhang Ying out shopping and was found by netizens, Ma Yun entered a small shop to buy her a gift, and the two people held hands very sweet.
There is a woman behind every successful man, this sentence is not false at all, there are online revelations that Ma Yun once lost a large amount of money, and finally Zhang Ying's fund was repaid, and there was no way to ask Ali for it, because there was no way to do the accounting. Later, the whistleblower said that it was a paragraph. Whether it is true or not, without Zhang Ying's help, Ma Yun would not have achieved today.
Buffett is right that a person's most successful investment is not to make thousands of times the profit, but to be able to marry a good wife.
