Let me know when the raw materials are used up.

On April 1 2065438, on the eve of Tomb-Sweeping Day, firecrackers were heard from time to time in a remote mountain village in central Hunan. A woman in white jeans warmly greeted the villagers and put 100 and 200 yuan into their hands. Everyone affectionately calls her the richest woman. Really? Are these people joking on April Fool's Day? Is this poor country the richest man? This is no joke. Half a month ago, Jeans' company went public in Shenzhen, with a market value of 68 billion yuan, becoming the richest woman in China. This is the first time that she went home to visit her father's grave after becoming the richest man. She is Zhou Qunfei, the boss of Lance Technology.

At the same time, a post "The Most Inspirational in the History of Little Three's Growth" went viral on the Internet, saying that the newly-released richest woman left her hometown to work in Shenzhen that year and became the boss's "Little Three". After "success at the top", she started her own business, poached most of the middle and high-level customers of the original company, and married the driver of the original boss ... Suddenly, Zhou Qunfei became a prisoner on death row. So what is the truth? Let's follow in the footsteps of Zhou Qunfei, the richest woman, and explore her growth path!

Zhou Qunfei's hometown, Chongxi Village, Hutian Town, Xiangxiang City, Hunan Province, is located at the junction of Changsha, Xiangtan and Loudi. It is surrounded by mountains and the traffic is blocked. Since 1980s, many people have joined hands to work in Guangdong, resulting in not only the richest woman in China, but also many bosses with tens of millions of assets.

According to Zhou Qunfei's neighbor's aunt, Zhou Qunfei's date of birth was not 1970, but May 29th, 197 1, which was confirmed by Zhou Qunfei's little friend Li Yunhua, because they were born on the same day. When he was a child, he was called Zhou Qunfei's "little sister". They cut firewood, herded cattle and went to school together.

Zhou Qunfei's father is a veteran and likes to play with new things. Unfortunately, he had an accident while playing with explosives. Two fingers were blown off and my eyes were almost blind. At this time, "Little Sister" was not born. When Zhou Qunfei was five years old, her mother committed suicide because of family pressure, leaving her blind husband and three people to support.

What a poor and broken family this is, life is hopeless, but my father, as the backbone, has not fallen. In Xiao Qunfei's eyes, his father is "omnipotent". In order to maintain the life of his family, he has worshipped eight masters, who can build houses, burn bricks, burn tiles, work and treat villagers. Zhou Qunfei also formed the habit of loving learning. She has been familiar with three-character classics and augmented literature since she was a child. She has always been inspired to forge ahead by the sentence "No one asks for poverty in downtown, but distant relatives in the mountains" and "One day the Yellow River will be clarified, how can people have no luck?" This habit has influenced her life. Her first stop to work in Shenzhen was next to Shenzhen University. She studied accounting, computer, customs declaration and driver's license, and later attended a training course in Tsinghua University, which undoubtedly benefited Zhou Qunfei for life.

Besides chopping wood, bamboo and pig grass after school, Zhou Qunfei sometimes takes his blind father to the streets to sell bamboo baskets. Although my father has bad eyes, he can weave all kinds of baskets skillfully as long as he gets a bamboo stick. At that time, the basket was sold at 80 cents each, so you can exchange some oil, salt and money for this difficult family to talk about.

When I get home at night, my father will ask Zhou Qunfei to keep accounts. I can clearly remember how much money I earned and spent that day. This is the earliest commercial enlightenment in Zhou Qunfei! Father's education and bitter childhood have become Zhou Qunfei's precious spiritual wealth, which has always inspired her to work hard.

Despite the hard work at home, the meager income can't maintain the tuition for three children. Xiao Qunfei dropped out of school in the second day of junior high school, despite Zhou Qunfei's beautiful writing and repeated praise for his composition. At this time, the TV series "Foreign Girl" was popular all over China, and working in Guangdong became the yearning of young people. Many students joined the torrent of going south before saying "goodbye" to their teachers. Thin Zhou Qunfei is also a member of the crowd. Although she doesn't know what awaits her ahead, after suffering, she will go out of the mountains and return to her hometown one day, which has been deeply buried in the heart of a 65,438+06-year-old girl.

Zhou Qunfei still remembers when he first arrived in Shenzhen. It was a rainy night in Mao Mao. She got off at Nanshan Hospital with a quilt on her back and a bucket in her hand. The road was dark, and I accidentally stepped into a rice field, and my feet were covered with mud. Just when she panicked, she saw a handsome boy who looked like a college student. She went up to ask which factory was hiring, and the handsome boy took her to a factory called Aoya Optics. Zhou Qunfei still remembers the kind man who helped him find the starting point of his career.

Aoya Optics is a small factory that processes watch glass. It is a three-story dilapidated building. All the equipment is refurbished by old machines, and employees eat, live and work in that building. Zhou Qunfei, who is thin, has become a humble working girl on the assembly line. She works from eight o'clock in the morning to early morning every day, and she can earn more than ten dollars a hard day. In less than 10 days, Zhou Qunfei became familiar with the whole process of product cutting, forming and polishing. After working for three months, Zhou Qunfei felt that "there was nothing worth learning" and offered to resign.

Unexpectedly, Zhou Qunfei's resignation letter attracted the attention of the factory. Maybe her handwriting is very good. Perhaps at that time, a resignation letter from a migrant girl expressing her gratitude was valuable. Instead of approving Zhou Qunfei's resignation, the director asked her to organize a brand-new silk screen printing department.

199 1 year, when Li Yunhua, a small friend in the village, went to work in Aoya Optics, Zhou Qunfei, who was always covered with mud when he was young, was already a management who was very familiar with glass processing technology. At this time, Zhou Qunfei had a little leisure. She didn't go out to play like other girls. She spends all available time learning various skills. At that time, you couldn't learn to drive when you went to learn a driver's license, but you could only learn to drive a van. The steering wheel of the truck was so heavy that her palm was bruised by blood bubbles. When changing the tire, the whole person presses on the wrench and can't turn the screw. Even so, she got a B-photo.

Zhou Qunfei also opened a clothing store, began to learn to do business, and went to the store to shout when he was free. Hard work always pays off, as everyone often says, how to use one's spare time determines one's future. Unconsciously, we who are in a fog have been abandoned by the richest man.

1990, Zhou Qunfei has encountered development opportunities. At that time, Aoya Optics expanded, but the new factory was half built, and the boss was ready to withdraw funds. Zhou Qunfei took the initiative to find the boss to recommend himself: "Get it, the salary is up to you; If you fail, I will give you a lifelong job. " The boss looked at the thin girl's determined eyes and thought it would be better to give it a try than to give up halfway.

This is a brand-new beginning. The whole factory has buildings, wiring, fire protection, filing, customs declaration, production and so on. Zhou Qunfei did everything herself, which laid a solid foundation for her to set up a factory alone in the future. In this new factory, Zhou Qun Fei creatively applied the screen printing technology he mastered to his work, and the effect was very good. The whole factory runs well and becomes the most profitable factory of the company. The boss was also impressed by her intelligence and ability. The boss is called Yang Dacheng. 1994, Yang Dacheng became Zhou Qunfei's first husband.

1993, Zhou Qunfei felt trapped here and left the factory.

At this point, Zhou Qunfei has become a minor celebrity in the industry. When she heard that she had left her job, many bosses rushed to invite her to join their company. A cousin of Zhou Qunfei said to her, "Whoever you work for is a working girl, but you still have to suffer indignities. Why don't we do it ourselves? " ! If you can afford it, we will follow you, if you can't. "Zhou Qunfei, who wants to get ahead, was persuaded.

1993 March 18, a small factory with only 8 people was busy day and night in a three-bedroom and one-hall house in Huangtian, Baoan, Shenzhen (now near Baoan International Airport). This small workshop is engaged in OEM production of watch glass. All the members are as follows: Zhou Qunfei, brother and sister-in-law, sister and brother-in-law, three cousins, and a serious family workshop. The venture capital comes from Zhou Qunfei's salary and more than HK$ 20,000 saved by opening a clothing store.

Unlike the rumor that Zhou Qunfei stole all the customers of the original company, the customers of the original company were all foreign merchants, while the Zhou Qunfei factory made domestic orders at first. In order to find customers, Zhou Qun flew around and visited everywhere. Needless to say, humiliation, even the German shepherd is "welcome". However, we finally received several business orders, and the number of employees increased to dozens, slowly gaining a foothold.

It is worth mentioning that in the second year of Zhou Qunfei's business, her current husband Zheng also joined in to buy materials, take orders and deliver goods together. Zheng, a native of Ningyuan, Yongzhou, Hunan Province, got married in 2008 after Zhou Qun Fei divorced Yang Dacheng for seven years. Zheng is not a boss driver, but he is also a driver who delivers goods to his home.

Although starting a business is hard, it is also fun. At that time, 1.5 yuan OEM fee was charged for printing a piece of glass. A person can print 7000 copies a day, and the profit is considerable. Zhou Qunfei tasted the joy of success for the first time.

This small workshop lasted for four years, and the turning point came from the Asian financial crisis 1997. At that time, many customers could not afford the processing fee and used equipment to pay their debts. Zhou Qunfei seized the opportunity, bought several machines at a low price, became an independent supplier of watch glass, moved the factory to a new factory, and hung up the signboard of Hang Seng Optics Co., Ltd. ..

By chance, Zhou Qunfei received an order to process mobile phone panels. She applied the previous watch glass technology to the mobile phone panel. Unexpectedly, this mobile phone is very popular. This is the very popular TCL3 188 mobile phone endorsed by Korean actress Kim Hee Seon at that time. Subsequently, other domestic brands of mobile phones demanded cooperation one after another, and Zhou Qunfei's career ushered in rapid development.

In 2003, Zhou Qun Fei established Lance Technology Co., Ltd. with technology and equipment as shareholders, and began to fully transfer to the production of mobile phone glass. Lance is a homonym for the English word "LENS". This name has brought wealth to Zhou Qunfei, and foreign merchants will jump out of her company as soon as they search for "camera".

In 2004, Reims ushered in greater development, but at the same time it also ushered in the biggest challenge, which almost made Zhou Qun fly to extinction.

Just this year, Motorola, the then mobile phone giant, came to the door to buy glass screens. At that time, Lance was less than 1 0,000, and the customer was not at ease. They asked such a question: "If the screen of the mobile phone is broken, can you afford to hack our president or a big star?"

In order to meet the requirements of customers, Zhou Qunfei plunged into the factory and led technicians to do experiments and find parameters. After three days and nights, the glass screen collision test finally met the requirements of the other party. Motorola's purchasing director called and asked to "transfer all the production capacity of Lance to Motorola". Happiness comes too suddenly for Zhou Qunfei to hesitate. At that time, I could only say "yes or no", and Zhou Qunfei accepted the order decisively.

To tell the truth, Zhou Qunfei really crustily skin of head took this big order at that time, because she wanted money but no money, talents and raw materials, and the other party was in a hurry to get the goods. Just now, the partner withdrew the investment of 2 million a year ago. The company doesn't even know English, and the competitors are making trouble again. They joined forces with Japanese raw material suppliers and demanded payment in advance.

No way, Zhou Qunfei can only sell his only house cheaply and pay it to a Japanese supplier. I didn't expect the other party to collect the money and still not deliver the goods. Zhou Qun flew to Hong Kong to find a Japanese businessman to "rescue", but the Japanese refused, with a strange smile on his face. This scene lingered in Zhou Qunfei's mind for a long time.

While waiting for the bus at Hung Hom Station, Zhou Qunfei thought he would leave empty-handed. The raw materials in the factory have been used up, and the employees are pitifully waiting for the good news. Without raw materials, the factory can't go on, the house is sold and the home is gone. His efforts came to nothing. At that moment, Zhou Qunfei really wanted to jump into the tracks.

In this trance, the mobile phone in the bag rang, and the voice of my daughter's milk came from inside: "Mommy, when will you come back for dinner?" Zhou Qunfei suddenly realized that she was the mother of the child, the wife of her husband and the boss of thousands of employees. So many people need me, I can't leave them alone. Zhou Qunfei wiped the tears from the corner of her eyes, and the bullying Hunan girl bravely set foot on the train back to Shenzhen. Just like this roaring train, there is always a road waiting for it ahead.

With the help of friends, Zhou Qunfei found another kind of glass raw material from Switzerland, which was recognized by customers. Finally, she worked overtime and delivered it on time. After the launch of the first Motorola V3 with Lance screen, it sold well all over the world. Since then, orders from Samsung, Nokia and Sony have poured in, and since then, Lance has been focusing on big foreign brands.

In 2006, Lance once again reached an important juncture and reached a cooperation with Apple's mobile phone. At that time, the factories around Lance's Shenzhen factory were fully rented, so it was impossible to expand on a large scale. Zhou Qunfei wanted to go back to his hometown in Hunan to build a factory, in fact, to respect his father's wishes.

As early as 2004, Zhou Qunfei returned to Hunan to inspect the factory. On June+10 this year, Zhou Qunfei came to Liuyang Biomedical Industrial Park, wearing simple jeans, a red coat and a backpack. It is only 30 minutes' drive from Changsha Huanghua Airport, and the traffic is very convenient. At that time, just after work, the director of the management Committee warmly left her for dinner, giving her a feeling of home. There has been a rumor that Zhou Qunfei's backpack is full of money. In fact, everyone misunderstood. Like us ordinary people, her bag is full of clothes and toiletries. She said that she would not be such a "local tyrant". It is enough to bring a bag of money and a credit card with her.

After reaching a cooperation with Apple Mobile in 2006, it is urgent to build a new factory. After visiting Qingdao and Kunshan, Zhou Qunfei decided to build the factory in Liuyang. The local government completed the land requisition, demolition, land leveling and related facilities construction at the fastest speed, which Zhou Qunfei was deeply satisfied with.

In 2008, Apple came to Liuyang factory for certification. At this time, the whole production base is still a big construction site, which is catching up with the snowstorm. Zhou Qunfei bought stainless steel plates for bedding, and precision machines were invited in. Zhou Qunfei, who has just given birth to a second child, kneels on the ground with a shovel, a steel ball and a brush to clean the toilet, and greets customers with the cleaning standards of five-star hotels. In April 2009, the Liuyang factory was put into production, and the headquarters of Lance was moved to Liuyang on 20 18. At present, Lance has several factories in Hunan, providing nearly 654.38+ten thousand jobs and paying billions of salaries every year, so that local people can find jobs at their doorsteps.

18 on March 20th15, two years after starting a business/kloc-0, Zhou Qun took Lance Technology to the market. In that year's Hurun Report, Zhou Qun flew home 50 billion yuan, and a generation of working girls eventually became the richest woman. In the latest Hurun 2020 Rich List, Zhou Qunfei and Zheng became the richest people in Hunan with11500 million yuan, an increase of 79 billion over last year, earning an average of 200 million yuan a day.

The biggest influence on Zhou Qun Fei is her blind father, and she is also the most filial to her father. When the living conditions were better at the beginning of her business, she took her father to live in Shenzhen. At that time, she was very busy every day, but no matter how late it was, even if she came home at midnight, her father would sit on the sofa and wait for her. The blind father couldn't turn on the light, and when he heard the sound, he staggered to open the door to meet his daughter. What a warm and affectionate picture of father and daughter!

Born in a broken and poor family, she kept learning and grew from a working girl to an excellent entrepreneur. This is a history of the hard work of bullying Hunan girls, a history of struggle for innovation and change, and a history of blood and tears of humble people unwilling to fate. Zhou Qun Fei vividly interprets this well-known famous saying with his own personal experience: "If God wants to entrust the Sri Lankan people with a heavy responsibility, we must first work hard to make them hungry ...".

All cow force comes from hardship, and all greatness comes from humbleness. As Zhou Qunfei said, bosses are driven away from the mountain. Push yourself, even if you are humble, there will be tomorrow!
