Stanley Ho, the richest man in Macao, said that money should never be taken by one person, but should be earned by others. When doing business, you must know how to give and take. Sometimes, although temporary benefits can be obtained, it is not conducive to long-term plans. You would rather give up than force. It is your own interest, and you should be good at being humble to others; It is not your own interests, let alone evil thoughts. With this mentality, you will cross your own values and gain the gratitude of others. You know, connections have always been the most important asset in business.

On March 3rd, 2006, Kloc-0, more than 60,000 "Tiger" lighters departed from Wenzhou Hu Da Lighter Co., Ltd. and were shipped to Shao Funing, the general agent of the United States.

Dahu Zhou, Chairman of Hu Da Lighter Co., Ltd., was deeply touched by this.

It turns out that there is a touching story between Dahu Zhou and Arvin-born American businessman Shao Funing.

In the early 1990s, Shao Funing had business dealings with Dahu Zhou. At that time, Shao Funing saw that the Tiger brand lighter had a very good market prospect in the United States, so he applied for registration of the Tiger brand trademark in the United States at 1994 and successfully registered it at 1999.

There are many such registered trademarks, and many enterprises often pay huge manpower and material resources for this purpose in order to obtain registered trademarks, and they will also make enemies with each other.

However, this is not the case with Hu Da and Shao Funing.

With the development of "Big Tiger" company, the trademark of "Tiger Brand" has been paid more and more attention. In 2005, the "Tiger Brand" trademark was also identified by the Ministry of Commerce as an export famous brand to be cultivated and developed.

In the world market of export, the American market is very important. When it was discovered that the trademark "Tiger Brand" was registered, Dahu Zhou immediately realized that it had become an obstacle for Tiger Brand to enter the American market. So ... He was determined to get the registered trademark back, so he even resorted to legal means.

However, when they negotiated with Shao Funing of the United States, they got something that moved Dahu Zhou very much: "Tiger brand was registered in the United States to protect this trademark. Now, in order to give Tiger a better development space and strive for a world famous brand, you can take back the trademark! "

Dahu Zhou immediately offered to pay $25,000 for trademark registration and maintenance, and appointed Shao Funing as the general agent of Hu Da in the United States.

In this way, an upcoming lawsuit disappeared without a trace. Dahu Zhou and Shao Funing not only did not become enemies, but became "in-laws", so Shao Funing became the general agent of Tiger Brand in the United States.
