What are the struggles of successful people?

Tai Ming Gou

Twenty years ago in Taiwan, he was unknown, and the scale of his company was not even that of Taiwan's top 1,000 manufacturing industries; but now he is an all-powerful and powerful company all over the world. The richest man in technology in Taiwan, his companies span Europe and the United States. He is Terry Gou, the boss of Hon Hai Group, Taiwan’s largest technology conglomerate.

Heroes don’t ask about their low origins, their ambitions and Tianqi

Regarding the growth process of Hon Hai, Terry Gou once said: “The reason why the sacred trees in Alishan (Taiwan’s most famous scenery) are Big, it was decided when the seeds fell into the soil 4,000 years ago, and it will never be known 4,000 years later." Looking back at the ups and downs of Hon Hai's growth, I am afraid that only Terry Gou himself can understand it.

Tai Ming Gou was born in 1950 and is the eldest son in his family. Due to his poor family background, Gou entered Taiwan's "China Maritime College" in 1966 and completed his studies on a part-time basis. After completing his military service, Gou worked as a salesman at Fuxing Shipping Company. In February 1973, Terry Gou invested NT$100,000 and founded Hon Hai Plastics Enterprise Co., Ltd. in Taipei County with his friends to produce plastic products. However, within one year, due to poor management, the original shareholders exited one by one, and the company became a wholly-owned company owned by Terry Gou.

At that time, black and white TVs had just emerged in Taiwan, and Terry Gou started by making buttons for selecting channels for black and white TVs. At this time, Hon Hai was just a small company with a scale of only NT$300,000 and only 15 employees. In 1975, the name was changed to Hon Hai Industrial Co., Ltd. In 1977, the company began to turn losses into profits. Terry Gou immediately purchased equipment from Japan to establish a mold factory, laying the foundation for future development. Later, he successively invested in the establishment of electroplating departments and stamping plants. In the 1980s, the world entered the era of personal computers. Terry Gou relied on his mature mold technology to focus on connectors, casings and other products, and pursued a competitive strategy of "large quantity, low price" to quickly occupy the market. In 1982, the company was renamed "Hon Hai Precision Industry Co., Ltd." and Guo continued to invest 16 million yuan into the field of computer cable assembly. In 1985, Guo established a branch in the United States, began to develop markets outside Taiwan, and created the "FOXCONN" brand. So far, Terry Gou has successfully built his "connector kingdom".

Starting from scratch, he has big goals and acts vigorously and clearly with rewards and punishments

Since the founding of Hon Hai, Gou’s goal has been very clear, which is to become the first in Taiwan, the first in Asia, and the first in the world. To achieve this ambitious goal, he created his own business philosophy.

Terry Gou called Hon Hai "fourth-rate talent, third-rate management, second-rate equipment, and first-rate customers." The first thing he has to do is to choose customers. In order to achieve his goal, he once drove his own car in the United States, stayed in motels for $12 a day, traveled to 32 of the 52 states in the United States, and did business with the world's major manufacturers. Since entering the field of personal computers, Hon Hai's customers have targeted leading international manufacturers such as IBM, Intel, Compaq, and Dell. In order to get an order from Compaq, Terry Gou simply invested in a molding machine factory next to Compaq's headquarters. As long as Compaq had a new design, he could see the model on the same day, and finally obtained a long-term order from Compaq. In order to consolidate the relationship with these large manufacturers, Terry Gou insists not to be his own brand, but only a parts supplier. It can be said that it is the orders from these major manufacturers that have made Hon Hai what it is today. It is said that one in every five computers in the world is equipped with a Hon Hai product.

But just having customers is not enough. What Terry Gou relies on is his own hard work. Since starting his business, he has been an out-and-out workaholic. Terry Gou believes that he should be the first one to go to work and the last one to get off work, so he insists on working at least 15 hours a day. Even if he gets off the plane at night, he will rush to the company immediately, and it is common for him to work overtime until midnight.

“Putting improvement of customer service capabilities first” is the factory motto that Hon Hai employees always keep in mind, and it is also the secret of Hon Hai’s successful development.

In order to survive and develop in the highly competitive world high-tech industry, Terry Gou created the CMM operation method, starting from the assembly of "self-made parts, parts modularization, and rapid logistics", plus the e-information flow to connect global customers. In order to achieve the realm of "accurate delivery, good quality and low cost".

In terms of business management, Terry Gou runs a factory as he runs an army, attaching great importance to discipline and paying attention to details. Terry Gou’s mantra in terms of employment is: “Whether high-tech or low-tech, whatever makes money is good technology.” In order to obtain a high rate of return, he hired people based on their talents and provided clear rewards and punishments. Terry Gou has never been stingy and given huge bonuses to outstanding employees and technical backbones. In recent years, at the annual Hon Hai employee dinner party at the end of each year, Terry Gou has provided prizes with a total value of hundreds of millions of New Taiwan dollars, and the first prize has been as high as tens of millions of dollars. But he treats his competitors as enemies. No wonder the Taiwanese technology community calls him a "hero". Therefore, although Hon Hai Group’s share placement dividends have remained high in recent years, and Terry Gou has become an enthusiastic target of shareholders, Gou and Hon Hai have always been included in the ranks of “poor image”.
