Introduction to Cao Dewang

Cao Dewang, male, Han nationality, born in May 1946, is from Fuqing City, Fuzhou, Fujian Province. He is the founder and chairman of Fuyao Glass Group. When he was 16 years old, he began to help his father pour tobacco at the risk of being labeled a "speculator". Around 1966, the cut tobacco business was unsustainable, so he switched to the fruit business.

We set off at around 3 a.m. every day, riding bicycles from Gaoshan Commune to Fuqing County. It was just dawn. When the fruit farmers arrived, we started bargaining with them and wholesaled all the fruits in the cart to the vendors. It usually lasts until 6 o'clock. The price difference that can be earned after such a round is about two yuan.

This is two yuan that the family depends on for survival, and then they rush home. After dinner, it is almost eight or nine o'clock. At this time, they have to go to bed quickly, otherwise they will not be able to sleep the next day. Can't get up.
