An acquaintance was born in a rural area with an ordinary family. He was admitted to a university in another place and worked in a local company after graduation.

Later, through someone else’s introduction, I met my current wife. My wife’s father is a moderate official in the local area.

Under the arrangement of his father-in-law, he entered a management position in the largest local state-owned enterprise. Fortunately, this acquaintance was also diligent and studious, and was appreciated by the leader, and established a firm foothold in the unit.

My career has been smooth sailing without any detours.

My wife also teaches at a local university and is quite virtuous. With a pair of children, I can say that her life is complete.

Looking back at the people around him of the same age, some have higher academic qualifications than him, some graduated from better schools than him, some have a broader vision than him, and some are even more capable than him.

But the wife has no so-called background. She is just an ordinary local or outsider who married into the local area and has no foundation. Doesn't help a man's career. Their careers are also lackluster, with no room for growth in sight.

There are many factors involved in a person's success, and the fate of those who can leverage them is indeed significantly different.

There are many successful people who rely on marriage to leverage resources or achieve their own success.

Wang Shi’s father is a veteran of the Red Army and a subordinate of Wang Zhen’s 359th Brigade. He followed Wang Zhen to Xinjiang to form the Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps, and later served as deputy commander of the Corps.

Wang Zhen later led the engineering corps to Shenzhen to develop the Special Economic Zone, and his father also went south to Guangzhou with his family. Wang Shi's father later served as director of Liuzhou Railway Bureau.

Wang Shi, an ordinary red boy, works in the Railway Bureau and leads an ordinary and stable life. Until one day, a woman, Wang Jiangsui, appeared...

Wang Jiangsui's father, Wang Shi's former father-in-law, Wang Ning, was once a comrade of Wang Hui. From 1982 to 1993, he served successively as the Central Military Commission. ***Secretary of the Guangdong Provincial Party Committee and Secretary of the Provincial Discipline Inspection Commission, Deputy Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee, Secretary of the Political and Legal Affairs Committee, Director of the Guangdong Provincial Advisory Committee, etc.

When Wang Shi tells his story of success, he often mentions the story of making his first pot of gold by reselling corn. The details are very thought-provoking.

Wang Shi discovered that corn from northern China has to be transported from Hong Kong to the south, and the price has gone up. If it can be transported directly from the north to Shenzhen, it can make a lot of difference.

So Wang Shi went to the Guangdong Shipping Bureau to ask them to open the northern route. But Wang had no money, so he asked the other party to ship the goods first, and he would settle the payment six months later. If he was just a poor kid, who would care about him? But he is the son-in-law of the provincial party committee secretary, so everything is different. In just eight months from April to December 1983, Wang Shi earned more than 3 million yuan.

"This is the first pot of gold I dug out of the sea. It's clean." Wang Shi was quite proud when he mentioned this.

Wang Shi claimed that his former father-in-law was familiar with the background of the Shenzhen Special Economic Zone and had a positive influence on his own business. But he also emphasized that his former father-in-law was an honest official and strict with his children.

"Compared with entrepreneurs from rural areas and ordinary families, I obviously have a huge advantage. But everything is a double-edged sword. While I have the advantage, I also need to pay more than others. effort".

Let’s talk about another big boss, Wang Jianlin.

Sicong’s mother’s name is Lin Ning.

Lin Ning’s father is Lin Lianzhang, a senior colonel, from Hebei. He joined the revolution in 1935 and participated in many wars such as the Huaihai Battle, the Crossing River Battle, and the Sixian Battle. He received the third-level "Independence and Freedom Medal" and the third-level "Liberation Medal".

After the founding of New China, he successively taught at Nanjing Artillery School, Artillery Engineering College, and East China Institute of Engineering (now Nanjing University of Science and Technology), cultivating a large number of outstanding military talents for the country.

After his death in 2011, Lin Lianzhang was buried in the Gongde Garden in Yuhuatai, Nanjing. In this Gongde Garden, more than a hundred founding generals are also buried.

Lin Ning has a famous saying: "Whether I marry the richest man or not, I am from a rich family." Her confidence comes from her business talent. The family business is well managed and she manages one of the top clubs in China, Europe. Rand, celebrities from all walks of life come here to communicate. Celebrities in the industry, such as Jet Li and Xiao Yanzi, the female version of Warren Buffett, have all crossed paths with Lin Ning.

Big bosses in politics and business, even the British royal family, founders of jewelry brands and luxury brands are all friends of Lin Ning. It cannot be said that many of Wanda’s important business partners do not have Lin Ning’s support behind them.

Wanda was surrounded by crises and owed more than 400 billion yuan in debts. In the end, Wanda was able to turn the crisis around, and it could not do without Lin Ning's help.

Of course, whether they are big bosses or ordinary acquaintances like the ones I mentioned, they themselves also need extreme efforts and concentration. If they want to wear the crown, they must bear its weight.

Their wives are evenly matched with them. They are not climbing flowers, but a kapok beside a man, able to stand side by side with him and share the wind and rain.

It is said that women are afraid of marrying the wrong man. On the other hand, many men around us have their careers affected and cannot focus on their careers because they have found the wrong wife.

I have a neighbor next to me. His wife loves to eat and is too lazy to work. She never cleans up the house. When she is not at home, she uses her mobile phone to browse Douyin. Her mother-in-law also takes care of her children. She never cooks for her husband in the morning.

Every time the children kiss and sleep with their father, they rely on their father to take care of them when they are sick and often ask for leave.

Every time I see the haggard figure of this neighbor, I sigh with emotion. If the family does not have a good woman to back it up, it will really be a disaster.

A good woman raising three generations is really the wisdom of our ancestors.

In essence, marriage is a partnership to open a company. To find the right partner, you need to put aside some emotional factors and think more rationally about this cooperation. It really cannot be covered by the word utilitarian. This requires wisdom and vision, don't follow your feelings.

Buffett said that the most important investment in life is marriage. When it comes to choosing a partner, if you choose the wrong one, you will lose a lot, not just money.

Loving and being loved are both abilities.
