Dong Mingzhu and Lei Jun are both business leaders. Why are they addicted to gambling?

Because I want to realize my marketing means in this way. After all, their gambling contract was also a joke, but the joke had different meanings for the two companies. Moreover, Xiaomi was only established three years ago, and Gree also wanted to expand, so such a bet was the driving force behind them.

Six years ago, Xiaomi specialized in the field of mobile phones, and Gree was an electrical appliance tycoon. Their business models were completely different. Lei Jun said to Dong Mingzhu: If the turnover of Xiaomi can surpass Gree after six years, even if I win, give me a dollar. Dong Mingzhu said that if you want to play, you have to play big, and the bet is destined to be 100 million.

Therefore, in the subsequent development process, Xiaomi gradually increased its fields, from smart home to household appliances, and its business gradually crossed with Gree, and the competition between the two sides in the market became increasingly fierce. The turnover of Gree 20 18 is still much higher than that of Xiaomi, but it is worth noting that the turnover of Xiaomi has grown rapidly. Although Gree has maintained a steady rise, the gap between the two has gradually narrowed.

Therefore, judging from the current situation of Xiaomi and Gree, in fact, this gambling contract is helpful to the two companies, so sometimes the gambling contract in the business community is not only for gambling, but more likely for the better development of their own companies.
