According to the current definition: Ye Kai is a standard "rich second generation". His father Ye Huichang started from scratch. But before attending the eight-day training, Ye Kai was never willing to take over his father's business.
The 8-day training is an advanced training course for reserved talents of private enterprises in Wenzhou, which is organized by Wenzhou Municipal Government and participated by many local private enterprises.
"The word' rich second generation' sounds a bit subtle." Mention this hot word, leaves open an embarrassed smile.
There is no doubt that leaves open is a rebel. He opened an Internet cafe and never wanted to work in his father's company. "I like a free life." It was not until last June 165438+ 10 that he got his new business card-general manager of China Resources Materials Company and executive deputy general manager of Okamoto Iron and Steel Company.
Today, there are about 150,000 private entrepreneurs in Wenzhou, half of them are aged 40 to 50, and more than 15% are over 50. Even if 60% of entrepreneurs over the age of 50 and their children start to emerge in their own enterprises, the number of people entering the "exquisite ranks" mentioned by Ye Kai will exceed 1.3 million, and even if the number of private enterprises in Wenzhou remains unchanged in the future 10, the size of this group will be nearly 50,000. In July last year, a research report on the construction of Wenzhou private entrepreneurs from the research group of Wenzhou Personnel Bureau said: "The handover peak of the first and second generation entrepreneurs in Wenzhou in the future 10-the private entrepreneurs team implies a fault crisis."
A month later, a "secret operation" began to be implemented-the government took the lead in cultivating talents for private enterprises.
Although Wenzhou Personnel Bureau has a subordinate unit named "Cadre Training School", it initially trained personnel for the civil service system, and later increased the training for enterprise managers, and hung up another brand-Wenzhou Institute of Continuing Education, but the special "rich second generation" training program has never been involved before.
Coincidentally, at almost the same time, Wang Yiqi, director of Wenzhou Personnel Bureau, visited the family business Evergreen Successor College, which was the first school in China founded by Mao, the founder of the group, at the end of 2006. The two sides are like-minded and hit it off. The latter is the training content exported to Wenzhou to promote the rich second generation project. At this time, President Ye is deeply worried about the global financial tsunami, but for his son Ye Kailai, all this seems to have nothing to do with him. He is still roaming freely in his own internet cafe world.
The name of the "rich second generation" training program in Wenzhou was finally determined as "Advanced Training Course for Reserve Talents of Private Enterprises in Wenzhou". "Although most of the later students came from the rich second generation in Wenzhou,' reserve talents' is obviously an open title, including professional managers and entrepreneurs." Wu Yanfeng, president of Wenzhou Cadre Training School, told Southern Weekend reporter.
This is the reason why Wenzhou was silent when the incident of "training the rich second generation" in Jiangsu was raging in the future.
However, Wenzhou Personnel Bureau was not as calm as it is now at first. On the contrary, it was an "ant on hot bricks"-an 8-day course and an "advanced seminar" with a price of 6.5438+0.28 million yuan per person. Although Wenzhou Personnel Bureau decided to subsidize 8,800 yuan per person, students only need a little "change", but after the news of the seminar was released, it remained for a long time.
In desperation, Wenzhou Personnel Bureau asked Wenzhou industry associations to "support"-I hope the associations can recommend and introduce relevant personnel of member enterprises to register. Ten associations finally responded.
At this time, Ye Huichang, his father, was the president of Wenzhou Metal Industry Association. The research association found a lobbying channel for Ye Huichang's anxiety about his son's unwillingness to take over, so he immediately signed up for Ye, paid 4000 yuan and sent him to "brainwash".
Leaves open like a "rescuer", and his arrival is like a timely rain for Wenzhou Personnel Bureau. However, what he didn't even expect was that after eight days of courses, he became interested in taking over. Since the media revealed that the "rich second generation" in Shunde, Guangdong collectively called on the local government to learn from the good example of Jiangsu and Zhejiang, invest in training the "rich second generation" and help them train their successors, the artillery fire of public opinion in these two days has revolved around "how to spend taxpayers' money to train the rich second generation"-those who get rich first and spend taxpayers' money to train their successors, which is too much (especially in so many places), but the problem is: "
The "rich generation" will never be reluctant to spend money to raise their children. Even if they "dig" for a towel for 27 years (Wang Yongqing) and only wear a 18 yuan tie when they go out (Niu Gensheng), they have a wide range of channels to spend money. I don't know how many famous schools and EMBA classes there are on the other side of the ocean. Compared with this, the government, the "second knife" in the field of education and training, really has no advantage-even if you attend your class, don't pay for it yourself. However, the words of a rich second generation education research expert can help us solve the mystery. The expert regrets that the next generation of private entrepreneurs in Shunde rarely communicate with the outside world and their communication skills are poor. In some parties, the rookie quietly leaves after toasting the government officials and will not discuss with the older generation of entrepreneurs. Think about it, the "rich second generation" has poor communication skills, is no longer "sensible", is no longer interested in the business of the older generation, and knows that they want to propose a toast to government officials and then run away. The weight of "government officials" can be seen. Obviously, the "rich second generation" is not short of money, but they still have to appeal to the government to invest in training the "rich second generation". Local governments are scrambling to build a platform for this highly controversial social event, knowing that they can't cultivate anything, just to close the relationship between officials and businessmen and contact their feelings.
Regarding the funding for the training of the "rich second generation" in the party school, the relevant person in charge of jiangsu provincial party committee once said: "The next generation of private entrepreneurs has high academic qualifications and smart minds, but their understanding and feelings for the party need to be further strengthened compared with their parents." This passage is very confusing. First of all, compared with "understanding and feelings about the party", understanding the party's policies and national laws is more important anyway. I'm afraid you can't cultivate feelings just by listening to the revolutionary history of China for a few days. Secondly, if the "rich second generation" needs to strengthen any concept, it is also a concept of being responsible to shareholders, customers, employees and society-at least you can't drive so fast in the street without restraint after drinking. Although the relevant person in charge of Wenzhou Personnel Bureau has said that Wenzhou will not consider intentionally arranging government and bank resources to connect with the "rich second generation" during the training process for the time being, the "rich second generation" who has attended the official training class and "trained" obviously does not think so. An elderly "rich second generation" in the steel industry once said in an interview that the relationship between politics and business is the focus of their training: "The" rich second generation "of some private enterprises in my industry has begun to" start ". After all, government officials and bank presidents also have children. "
The local government hopes to continue to cultivate "red-top businessmen" who have deep feelings for themselves, and the "rich second generation" hopes that the "rich second generation" (even if they have studied abroad and learned advanced business concepts) will continue their own "red-top businessmen" route, which may be the reason why the two sides hit it off. I remember that Feng Lun, chairman of Vantone, spent a lot of time describing the combination of government and business and "how to invest in a few people for a long time" in his book Wild Growth, which was once dismissed as outdated on the grounds that Feng Lun was still preaching that "success in China society depends not on one's own talents, but on the ability to obtain resources through power". Unfortunately, the "rich generation" who used to rely on "power to obtain resources" to succeed still called on the government to hold training courses to help them train the next generation when they could do nothing. This is really a kind of sadness.
