Innovation
Innovation is the source and driving force for the sustainable development of a country and nation. Innovation is a practice that combines responsibility, courage, methods, attitude and spirit. It is the magic weapon for the tobacco industry to survive and develop.
The so-called innovation, in a nutshell, means inheriting the predecessors without following the old ways; learning from others while being original; striving to have new perspectives for observing the situation, new ideas for advancing work, and new solutions to problems. Methods should be adopted to ensure that all work embodies the characteristics of the times, grasps regularity, and is creative.
Practice is the foundation of innovation. Without practice, innovation will become a tree without roots and water without a source. Experience tells us that innovation should proceed from reality, center on my country's reform, opening up and modernization, focus on the application of Marxist theory, dare to abandon outdated understandings, concepts, and practices, and form realistic lines, principles, and policies, Grow our tobacco business. There is a Chinese proverb: Always having doubts is the beginning of innovation, and having the courage to overcome doubts is the energy of innovation. Mr. Lu Xun once said that the first person to eat crab is very admirable. The first person to eat crabs, in addition to being brave and fearless, was first of all a discoverer who was good at questioning. A large number of facts show that discovering regularities from common, universal, and recurring phenomena is an important method; being brave enough to question and being good at discovery is the source of continuous innovation and creation. A writer said: "Learning is a person's true special skill, the first strength, the first wisdom, the first origin. Everything else is the result of learning and the blessing of learning." Innovation is also the blessing of learning. Whether it is a country, an enterprise or an individual, if it wants to progress and develop, it must have a driving force to continuously improve it, so that people can have a strong desire for knowledge and creativity, thus promoting people to strive for self-improvement and hard work. The formation of this motivation is based on diligent study and accumulation of knowledge. The more people learn, the bigger the unknown world becomes, and the more people feel their lack of knowledge; and the more they continue to learn and accumulate, the more they can continue to create.
Innovation requires honesty and humility. Some people say that humility is a spiritual state that faces achievements and honors calmly, and it is a kind of ideological character that is truth-seeking and pragmatic and willing to be a student. Times are developing and society is progressing. In the great practice of building a moderately prosperous society in an all-round way, we need to adhere to the theoretical quality of Marxism that keeps pace with the times, consciously regard innovation as an unremitting pursuit, and always maintain a sense of aggressiveness, momentum, and tenacity to "break through the waves with long winds." Sometimes, we will pioneer and innovate with our broad mind and magnanimity.
In this way, we can strive for first-class work standards and performance, and continue to invent, discover, create and advance in great practice.
The American rich man Yamer was originally a poor farmer. After gold was discovered in California, he joined the gold rush like many others. In the harsh natural environment of barren mountains and wild valleys, scorching heat and a severe shortage of water sources, gold diggers die of thirst and heat every day. Yamer, who was also in trouble, saw the tragic scene before him and resolutely changed his original intention, giving up gold mining and looking for water. He surveyed the geology, dug canals, diverted water into the pond, filtered and clarified the water, and packaged it in bags for sale. Over the past few years, most of the people who originally panned for gold with Yamer have become beggars, or even abandoned their bodies in the wilderness. However, Yamer made enough money from selling water and suddenly became one of the few millionaires in the United States at that time.
An old saying goes: "If you are poor, you will change, if you change, you will be general, and if you are general, you will be successful." This saying reveals the true meaning of innovation. In market competition, whoever can carefully discover the ever-changing market demand and then use the best way to meet this demand will experience the joy of success brought by innovation.
Dare to take risks
A publishing house published a book called "Intellectual Development of Children XX" written by a foreigner. After the new book was launched on the market, it suffered from poor sales. The misfortunes were piled up in large quantities in the warehouse.
At this time, a bookstore owner heard the news and immediately bought a book to study. He felt that the book was actually well written, but the title lacked visualization, causing many readers to mistakenly think it was a theoretical book. When reading, I worry that I can’t understand it, so no one cares about it. After carefully studying and analyzing the market, the bookseller made a decision that shocked almost everyone: he bought all the books and the copyright of the book at cost price. In the eyes of others with suspicion, he began to invite celebrities to promote the book in major media and introduce the wonderful contents of the book to readers in detail. As a result, all the books were sold out. Because he owned the copyright to the book, he printed it many times and made a lot of money from it.
Adventure is a "double-edged sword." If you want to achieve greater success, you must learn to take risks. There is no foolproof way to make money in the world. No matter what you do, there will be certain risks, but they vary in size. As long as you dare to pay, there will be rewards.
