In a program, the host Cao asked, "Why do you want to build a factory in the United States?" Cao bluntly said: "In China, if I earn100000 yuan, I have to pay 6.8 million yuan in tax. If I earn100000 in America, I only need to pay 4 million tax. If I set up a factory in the United States, the profit is relatively large. "
Cao's life is a model of inspiration. From a poor boy with nothing to today's "glass king", it is admirable, and his struggle experience also makes people want to find out.
Due to the changes in the middle family, Cao was born in a poor family when he was a child, and it was common for him to have many sisters. Under such circumstances, Cao dropped out of school at the age of 14 and began to study business with his father.
Because of his young age and inexperience, Cao has done many things, selling cigarettes, fruits, pulling cars and repairing bicycles ... He has done everything to make money, but even though he works so hard, he still lives a hungry and cold life. Poverty did not defeat Cao, but made him more frustrated and brave.
Later, Cao worked as a buyer in a glass factory in his hometown, mainly selling "staple food" water meter glass. 1983, Cao contracted the glass factory that was about to close down, and miraculously turned losses into profits through his own efforts.
During the period of 1987, Cao did not want the domestic automobile glass market to be monopolized by foreign countries. He thinks that China people should have their own glass, and there should be a sky visible from their own glass. Therefore, Fuyao began to adjust the product direction, specializing in automotive glass. In the end, everything paid off. The success of Fuyao Glass broke the situation that domestic automobile glass depended on imports, and soon 70% of the domestic automobile glass market was occupied by Fuyao.
At the same time, Cao thinks that since foreigners can sell our products to us, why can't we sell our products to them? Therefore, Cao Meng came up with the idea of opening up foreign markets.
At this moment, China joined the WTO, and foreign countries opened up preferential policies to China enterprises. In order to save transportation costs, Cao decided to open a branch in the United States, and in order to get better preferential conditions, the whole family became American citizens.
At this point, a stone stirred up a thousand waves. People in China heard that Cao got the American green card, and all kinds of questions and abuse flocked to him. However, Cao didn't explain too much, but showed by practical actions that he has always been a responsible China person.
As a businessman, Cao went to the United States to build a factory for Fuyao in order to enter the international market, but this does not mean that he will betray his motherland.
In Cao Cao's Mind is Bodhi, he wrote the following sentence: "Fuyao was made in China. Without China, there would be no Fuyao today, and there would be no Cao Wangde today. " In a simple sentence, we can see that Cao is a very patriotic person with a sense of national responsibility.
In 2005, with a stroke of a pen, Cao ordered the whole family to return the American green card. His attitude is very firm. He warned his children: "Whoever wants to stay in the United States can't inherit my property. Do it yourself!"
Why did Cao Wangde do this? In this regard, he said: "Fuyao Glass is getting bigger and bigger, and it is very likely to become one of the representatives of China enterprises in the future. If the whole family holds an American green card, wouldn't it make Fuyao Group, which they have worked so hard to create, an American enterprise? My ancestral home is Fujian Province, China, and I am an upright China native. How can I let the United States take such a big advantage? "
Cao's attitude is actually the attitude of every China person with backbone, but few people are as powerful as Cao and can show the China people's home-country complex to the whole world.
Once, when Cao was talking business with the French, the French got carried away and made fun of China, which made Cao very angry. He threw the contract directly on the table and shouted, "Have you ever been to China? Do you know anything about China? I come from China. Is it really good to say China in person? I laugh at France. Will you? " With that, Cao turned and left.
The French didn't expect Cao to lose such a big temper and paused. In order to recover their losses, they had to make a solemn apology to Cao and fired the representative who made fun of China on the spot. Cao reluctantly agreed to cooperate with them.
Coincidentally, the American anti-dumping case that shocked China and foreign countries once again showed Cao's patriotic feelings to the world. In the face of American slander, before Cao went to war, he said forcefully:
"Since they insult others, we don't have to submit to humiliation. This lawsuit is going to be fought! We must win! Until they take it away! "
After a year of hard struggle, in June 5438+February 2003, the US International Trade Court confirmed eight of the nine claims appealed by Fuyao and sent the case back to the US Department of Commerce for retrial.
This battle won Fuyao Glass a place in the American market and laid a good foundation for him to open the European market. In addition, he also made a live advertisement for the image of China enterprises, and he was the first China enterprise to win a lawsuit against the United States.
In this regard, Cao said: "I am not representing myself, but representing china glass industry, just for our national enterprises to be respected in the international market, and I will fight to the end! No matter how many times! "
Compared with some domestic entrepreneurs, Cao's wealth is far less than theirs, but his fame is much greater than theirs, and his position in the hearts of Chinese people is also very high. Because Cao has always insisted on doing business and charity, he is a real entrepreneur.
From 1983, the first bucket of gold earned was used to buy 2000 yuan tables and chairs for my alma mater. Over the past 30 years, Cao has donated nearly16 billion yuan, and Cao was awarded the title of "the best in China".
Cao is not interested in the title of "the first good". He believes that donation is out of a kind of * * *, and sharing with the society is just doing what should be done. "China people should strengthen their confidence and believe that there are still truth, goodness, beauty and true feelings in the world."
Now, Cao, who is over 70 years old, has decided to share his business wisdom and philosophy of dealing with people in order to let young people develop better, so he wrote the book "Heart is Bodhi" by himself.
He hopes that through this book, he can inspire contemporary young people to stick to it and tide over the difficulties when they encounter setbacks and hardships.
If you are at a loss, or encounter difficulties, I recommend you to read Heart is Bodhi. There is no flowery rhetoric in this book. Only through Cao's heartfelt wisdom and learning from the wisdom of the wise can we have a better possibility.
How dark is Cao?
Hello, Cao, it's not dark at all. He is a very nice person. Cao donated a lot of money in his life. From the first donation of 1983 to 2020, Cao's personal cumulative donation reached1200 million yuan, ranking first in the country; 202 1 year 10 billion, no one can surpass him for the time being. In fact, Cao himself is not a super-rich man. On the Hurun Report published in 2020, Cao was only 654.38+065 billion yuan, ranking 325th. Boss Cao has a famous saying: "I do business not for money, but for the prosperity of the country." I think the money earned by a truly successful person in my hands must be repaid to the society before I die! "I'm not the best in China, and the best in China is Yuan Longping. "
1 and 16 years old, he risked being labeled as a "speculator" and began to help his father pour tobacco. By about 1966, the tobacco business was unsustainable, so it turned to the fruit business. At 3 o'clock every morning, when I rode my bike from Gaoshan Commune to Fuqing County, it was just dawn. When the fruit farmers came, I began to bargain with them. It's usually six o'clock after all the fruits in the cart are wholesale to the vendors. The difference that can be earned this round is about two yuan. This is two dollars for a family to live on. Then they hurried home. It's almost eight or nine after dinner at home. At this time, they have to go to bed quickly, or they won't get up the next day.
In order to make a living, he planted tremella, worked as a cook and repairman at the reservoir site, worked as an educated youth and an agronomist, and watered the fruit trees. Cao, who struggled to the age of 30 and did everything he could, became an unparalleled "human spirit." 1975, he accumulated more than 50,000 yuan of "huge funds" for himself. At that time, he felt that he was financially liberated.
3. Cao not only started to work as a buyer in the glass factory at 1976, but also contracted this small township factory that suffered losses every year at 1983, and then established Fuyao Glass Co., Ltd. at 1987, which was successfully listed. Under his leadership, it became the second largest automobile glass manufacturer in the world.
4. 1983, Cao contracted this township factory which suffered losses every year. 1985, the main business quickly turned to automobile glass, which completely changed the history of China automobile glass market 100% dependence on imports. 1987, Fuyao Glass Co., Ltd. was established. 1993, Fuyao Glass landed on domestic A shares. It is the first company in China to introduce independent directors. It is a listed company in China stock market, and its cash dividend can be up to 22 times of the raised funds. In May, 2009, Cao won the Business Oscar Award, and was honored as the first Chinese winner of Ernst & Young Global Entrepreneur Award. On 202 1, Cao was selected into the Forbes list of the world's richest people, ranking 705th with $4 1 billion.
The present situation of Cao's American factory
Although many entrepreneurs are rich, they are not all as famous as Ma Yun's father. The protagonist to be talked about today is such a figure, which is not well known. However, his products and enterprises have already flourished. He is Cao, the founder of Fuyao Glass Group and a famous entrepreneur in China.
Speaking of Cao Wangde, people who know him will always remember that he gave up the China market and spent 654.38 billion yuan to build an "American factory" in the United States. Speaking of this, many people began to scold him for being unpatriotic and opposed Cao's move, thinking that the American market was changeable and unstable at that time, and investing in the American market was not a decision conducive to long-term development.
At that time, in the American market, due to the outbreak of the oil crisis in the 1970s, American cars always advocated large displacement and large volume, which made American cars get into trouble in this crisis. What followed was the bankruptcy of the American automobile industry, which caused heavy losses, and a large number of Americans faced the tragic situation of unemployment. Cao saw this situation and immediately saw business opportunities, so he later spent a lot of money to save the American market and let the United States catch a breath from the tragic situation of constant losses. For China people, this is useless. Throw yourself into a dead end and hit the gun. To Americans, he is the savior and benefactor.
So 30 years later, what happened to the American factory that Cao had built? We know that today's American factories are not declining, but becoming stronger and stronger. Fuyao's boss, Cao, made a fortune instead of losing money because he spent a lot of money to build a factory in the United States. Fuyao's current revenue in the United States is19.1100000 yuan, and its net profit is1480000 yuan, an increase of nearly 20% compared with previous years. Such achievements are really excellent, and people have to admire them. Nowadays, Cao's enterprises are getting better and better, which is really impressive and enviable. What do you think of this?
