1967, Guo Guangchang was born in a village in Dongyang City, Zhejiang Province. Guo Guangchang's family is very poor. He can only eat vegetables such as corn and yam for three meals a day, and even rice is very economical every day. Guo Guangchang's mother is an ordinary vegetable farmer, and her father is just a stonemason. Although their income is not high, they know the importance of study, so they let Guo Guangchang go to school when he was very young.
And Guo Guangchang also worked hard, studied hard, and made his grades among the best. However, there were some special reasons that led Guo Guangchang to drop out of school to help his parents, so he accumulated some experience in dealing with people. But Guo Guangchang has been unwilling to do so.
It was not until 1977 that the central government announced the resumption of the college entrance examination that Guo Guangchang was finally able to go back to school, and Guo Guangchang's father always supported him and firmly believed that reading could change his destiny.
Unfortunately, it happened again when Guo Guangchang was fourteen. Unfortunately, Guo Guangchang's father broke his right hand at work, which made the poor family worse. However, Guo Guangchang did not give up. On the contrary, in 1982, Guo Guangchang graduated from junior high school with excellent results.
Guo Guangchang, who has a dream, refused his father to go directly to the technical secondary school, made money early and registered in the city. Instead, he chose to go to Dongyang Middle School, which is far from home, but it can make him better acquire knowledge. Being far away from home, Guo Guangchang lost the care of his parents, but learned to live alone.
In the hard high school life, Guo Guangchang always believed in himself and believed that knowledge could change his destiny. Finally, many good things happen. 1985, Guo Guangchang was admitted to Fudan university with excellent results. I chose a very unpopular philosophy when I chose my major. What he didn't expect was that Guo Guangchang would become an excellent businessman and entrepreneur in the future.
Although the major of Guo Guangchang University was very unpopular, it paved the way for him to be a businessman in the future. Guo Guangchang, who is studying philosophy at Fudan University, has more opportunities to gain insight into human nature and create opportunities for his future career.
1989, Guo Guangchang, who graduated from Fudan University, had the opportunity to become a university teacher because of her excellent performance in school, and Guo Guangchang accepted it.
For that era, university teachers were a very enviable job, no less than civil servants at that time. A salary of 500 a month was also a lot of income at that time. Guo Guangchang is not very busy at work at ordinary times, and he has started to prepare some money for his future marriage. So, Guo Guangchang started a part-time job in market research, and it was this part-time job that made him discover the great potential of doing business.
Later, Fudan University found out that Guo Guangchang was working part-time outside the school and severely criticized Guo Guangchang. And Guo Guangchang also deeply reflected on his own practice. But he didn't want to continue to be a teacher at school, so he made up his mind to give up teaching and choose business.
1992, he officially chose to resign as a teacher. He was 25 years old that year. That year, Guo Guangchang founded Guangxin Technology Co., Ltd. with more than 30,000 yuan and his alumnus Liang Youjun in his own name. Although the company was hard at first, Guo Guangchang was free. Later, they successfully received the project and earned the first million in their lives.
Later, they decided to change the company's development mode, changed its name to Fosun, and began to gradually set foot in lucrative projects such as real estate and biopharmaceuticals. Time has proved that Guo Guangchang's choice is correct, and these two projects have made him gain numerous assets.
1998, Guo Guangchang's company went public successfully, and its assets became 350 million. Six years later, Guo Guangchang has become the richest man in Shanghai. Not only in career, Guo Guangchang was a great success, but also in love, Guo Guangchang successfully harvested his own love.
Guo Guangchang and his wife met in a TV interview. At that time, Guo Guangchang was a successful businessman, and his future wife was a famous host. The two people are very well matched, and they soon entered the marriage hall, and their married life is also very happy.
And Guo Guangchang's wife is also a veritable strong woman, who not only has excellent working ability, but also takes good care of her family. Guo Guangchang praised his wife more than once in public. Guo Guangchang himself, also known as Shanghai Buffett, is a veritable winner in life.
From Guo Guangchang's experience, we can know that birth is really not a very important thing for success. Only when you have the ability to seize fleeting opportunities, plus your perseverance, can you change your destiny.
On the other hand, Guo Guangchang knows how to give up something to get a chance. At that time, a famous university teacher was the "iron rice bowl" that everyone envied others, but Guo Guangchang would choose to give up and look for a business world that few people explored at that time. His courage and wisdom are worth learning.
Finally, ability is the most powerful guarantee of success. Only if you are strong enough, can you better develop in various industries, find opportunities and realize your dreams. Dare to think and do, develop your own ability, use your own strength to overcome all kinds of difficulties, seize opportunities, change your destiny, and become the winner of your life.
