Starting with selling vegetables
1957, Wang Jincheng was born in an obscure village in Dongguan, Guangdong. There are seven brothers and sisters in his family, and there are not enough economic conditions for each child to study. At that time, the family didn't attach importance to reading. As the eldest son, Wang Jincheng sold idle fish in the village with his father after graduating from junior high school. In this process, he also learned a little business for the first time.
In this way, Wang Jincheng has been doing small business with his father. Until the reform and opening up, he smelled business opportunities and found some friends to come to Hainan with the call of the country. Wang Jincheng and his friends can't afford to do big business for the time being because of insufficient funds, so they choose to sell vegetables, buy them from Hainan and then sell them to Shenzhen.
The process of selling vegetables is very hard. They get up early and get greedy for the dark. They want to ensure the freshness of vegetables and plan the most convenient and fast transportation mode by themselves. In this way, Wang Jincheng earned the first bucket of gold in his life. In this process, Wang Jincheng's business mind gradually formed. More importantly, he is not satisfied with the status quo and wants to use his existing property to do bigger business.
1985, Wang Jincheng returned to his hometown with his "first bucket of gold". After all, Dongguan is the first of Guangdong's "Four Little Dragons" and is known as the factory of the world. Due to the developed industry, there is a great demand for metal materials. Wang Jincheng chose to set up Xingye Aluminum Alloy Factory with his own money. Although Wang Jincheng is a businessman, he is not mercenary. He chose the most suitable materials and materials, so his factory was recognized by many people in the local area. Because of this, his aluminum alloy factory quickly established itself in his hometown and took over almost all local businesses.
The price went up accordingly.
Wang Jincheng's assets continued to appreciate, so he stepped up and expanded many industries, such as stone, chemicals, furniture and wood. Among them, Dongcheng Stone Factory, which he founded in 1990, is now one of the largest comprehensive professional stone processing factories in South China. It is said that all the marble used for urban construction in his hometown of houjie town comes from his factory. In addition, his furniture city is 300,000 square meters, and Jiahua Hotel has 56 floors.
Xingye Aluminum Alloy Factory and Dongcheng Stone Factory can be said to be the basis of Wang Jincheng's commercial growth. With the support of these two factories, Wang Jincheng's career is getting stronger and stronger. He found his three younger brothers to run a business with him. He thinks that a monopoly can't do great things, and the Qixin family needs the cooperation of Qi Xin to do it well. He arranged different industries for his younger brothers to support each other.
He is not only good at doing business with his family, but also knows what kind of people are suitable for what position. Every year when the town allocates college students, Wang Jincheng will take the initiative to select some college students and arrange them to enter suitable positions. Because Wang Jincheng attaches great importance to these young college students, they all work hard under his guidance.
Become the richest man
Wang Jincheng's industry is developing smoothly, and his identity is no longer just the factory director. He began to invest and even became the chairman of the companies that invested in the four major groups. His investment scope has also expanded to the whole country and even the whole world, and he has dabbled in Beijing, Shanghai, Hong Kong, Macao and Canada.
In 2006, he invested US$ 654.38+0 billion, covering an area of 563 mu, and built Dongguan Kang Hua Hospital, the largest private enterprise in China, which attracted media attention. In addition, he also invested 600 million yuan to build a cardiovascular hospital in Wuhan. It is said that his worth has exceeded 30 billion yuan at this time, but he refused all interviews, and the outside world could not know how much his specific assets were. But he can fully deserve the title of "the leader of private enterprises in Dongguan".
As we all know, Guangdong has a Hurun Rich List, but Wang Jincheng, the richest man in Dongguan, is not among them. According to Hurun, he met Wang Jincheng once in 2003 and knew his economic strength and the name of the richest man, but he was too low-key to be interviewed by the media and could not find any relevant information about him on the Internet.
Rich and virtuous
Wealth is important, but besides wealth, a person's good character is more worthy of respect. Wang Jincheng is such a rich and noble man.
After Wang Jincheng became rich, he did not leave his hometown, and continued to contribute to the construction of his hometown, trying his best to help the villagers. On weekdays, he has no shelf at all and likes to wear slippers and shorts. Once in an alley in the village, his Mercedes was damaged by a tricycle that suddenly rushed over, but he didn't blame the other party and didn't ask for compensation. Seeing that the other party was scared, he just smiled and left.
Although it is the responsibility of the other party, he will also consider others. The money for repairing the car may be nothing to him, but it is a lot of money to a driver riding a tricycle.
According to incomplete statistics, Wang Jincheng invested in various infrastructure projects in Dongguan, and all kinds of donations totaled more than150,000 RMB. Every holiday, he will give a few hundred yuan of red envelopes to the elderly in the village, which is considered filial piety. All the old people in the village are like this, not to mention the way Wang Jincheng treats his parents. In addition to filial piety, he also donated money and school buses to many local schools in the name of his mother.
Regrettably, in 2007, Wang Jincheng was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer and was treated in Beijing, but eventually died at the age of 50 due to uncontrollable deterioration. After Wang Jincheng died, he received more than 800 wreaths from all walks of life. Among them, many politicians and businessmen sent wreaths, showing Wang Jincheng's outstanding life and achievements.
Wang Jincheng has two sons and a daughter in his life. There is a single-family house in the village, which contains three villas built by himself, adjacent to the artificial lake in Serene Park. Before leaving, Wang Jincheng always cared about his children and made specific arrangements for the inheritance of various properties of his enterprise group.
Everyone's efforts will be rewarded. Wang Jincheng was diligent and pragmatic all his life, with excellent business acumen and ability of employing people. These excellent qualities and abilities contributed to his success. What is even more rare is that he has never forgotten his roots and the land where he was raised, and has made many contributions to the construction of his hometown.
He didn't like the title of "rich man" before his death. He felt that he didn't reach this level and was disgusted with such a title. In fact, people call him that now, not only because of his wealth, but also because of his respect and admiration. Wang Jincheng is rich and virtuous, but unfortunately he is deceived by nature. He died of cancer at the age of 50, but such an excellent and kind person should be respected and remembered by the world.
We can't know what our efforts will eventually yield, and we are not sure whether the result is good or bad, but the most important thing is to have a clear conscience and work hard.
