It is not difficult to find that in the Chaoshan area, there are many people doing small business. They would rather get up early and work late at night, and are exhausted every day. I will never work for others. What is going on?

It turns out that Chaoshan people are also called Oriental Jews. They have too many similar genes. Their family education has been different since childhood, and they have the character traits of "shrewdness, diligence and tenacity".

They are good at making fortunes through small business, and there are many prominent figures in the business world, such as Li Ka-shing of the Yangtze River Group, Ma Huateng of Tencent, Huang Guangyu of Gome, etc. The basis for their success is their magical way of thinking. .

Many friends may have heard a story. One day, a farmer was fishing by the river. A passing monk asked him, if you were given a basket of fish and a fishing rod, which one would you choose? ? The farmer chose fish without hesitation, and the monk smiled slightly and said: A basket of fish will be gone after eating it, but with a fishing rod, you can ensure that you will have fish to eat every day.

Many people only heard this part. In fact, I passed by a Chaoshan man later and the monk asked the same question. The other person still chose fish, but the answer he gave surprised the monk, "Put it on." After selling the fish, use the money to buy ten fishing rods and rent them to people for fishing. This way you can not only make money, but also have fish to eat every day!" After hearing this, the monk sighed: Amitabha, this poor monk does not deal with Chaoshan people.

It can be seen from this that the thinking of Chaoshan people is actually a kind of "sustainable development" and does not care about gains and losses in one city and one pool. This is inseparable from the business philosophy of the enterprise.

So they would rather be poor bosses than live a comfortable and peaceful working life. Dear friends, do you have friends from Chaoshan and what is their current situation?

Can’t work!

On the surface, it is said that Chaoshan people are adventurous, adventurous, talented in business, hardworking, and so on!

But I think the fundamental reason is actually related to the lifestyle in Chaoshan area.

First, the sacrificial culture in the Chaoshan area is very strong. You have to worship gods and ancestors every now and then. If you work part-time and don’t have free working hours, you can’t worship so much. You may become a different kind of person in a minute, or even an unworthy descendant. This seems a bit exaggerated to outsiders, but it is true.

In order to go home to worship their grandparents, migrant workers in Chaoshan can take time off whenever they ask for it. Factory owners who start businesses there often find it difficult to laugh or cry over this matter. It is very common to do a lot of work for the purpose of offering sacrifices. This is almost a force majeure event, especially the tomb sweeping during the Qingming Festival, the reunion during the Mid-Autumn Festival, and the welcoming of the master during the Lantern Festival, which are sacred and unshakable.

Second, Chaoshan people have a strong sense of family. Husbands singing and wives following each other is a reflection of real life in Chaoshan families. In other places, it is very common for couples to work in different places, but in Chaoshan this is similar to family breakdown. But working part-time is never that satisfying, especially for business people. It is common to be sent to one city a year.

For Chaoshan people who attach great importance to the concept of family, they usually have wives, children, young and old, and generally do not travel too far. Even if they go out to work hard, they usually take their families with them. If you pay a little attention, it is not difficult to find that most Chaoshan people travel around their homes.

Third, the business atmosphere that I have been exposed to since childhood. The business atmosphere of the Chaoshan area has a huge impact on a person's growth. Regardless of male or female, it can be said that every Chaoshan person has the desire to be a boss. This little fire has been planted since childhood.

Compared to other places, people should have received more risk warnings about starting a business since childhood. You may have to make more preparations before you dare to venture into the sea. Chaoshan people instinctively have more courage to take risks. Because he grew up there, he had more opportunities to witness the ups and downs of entrepreneurs, and he was able to face entrepreneurial failure more calmly when he grew up.

4. The support of family-based unity in individual entrepreneurship! Let me tell you a story, when I just graduated and started running a business. My director and my manager taught us how to evaluate whether a customer has money, which is nothing more than looking at cars, houses, and clothing.

These judgment criteria are not 100% accurate, but they can generally be used in preliminary target screening. As a result, in the Chaoshan market, they said the method failed.

A person who is idle all day long and has no money may just scrape together three to five million when he decides to start a business. The vice president there repeatedly emphasized when educating new employees that when looking for customers in this place, you must not judge people by their appearance! Chaoshan people’s money is mobile! They may not necessarily have a family fortune, but almost all of them are backed by families who can raise funds to start a business!

Generally speaking, subjectively, most Chaoshan people are affected by the environment and have more desire and motivation to start a business! Objectively speaking, entrepreneurship is a rigid need for many Chaoshan people, and the conditions are still more mature.

Are Chaoshan people as scary as everyone says? Would you rather set up a stall than work a part-time job? It really scared the baby to death!

Chaoshan people are Chaozhou people, smart, adventurous and good at doing business. "If you love to fight, you will win!" is their motto. The representative figures are always Li Ka-shing, but Ma Huateng is rare. I would rather starve to death than work, and I would rather sleep on the floor than be the boss. In their eyes, working as a job can only make a living, but being a boss and doing business can make money and make a fortune even in small businesses. What is the reason why Chaoshan people would rather set up stalls than work part-time?

1. Since the Ming and Qing Dynasties, pirates have been rampant, clans have fought with each other, and more men have died in battles. A family, a village, has more men and more money to determine the outcome of the struggle. Frequent fighting has led to the inability of agriculture to recover normally. Work, focusing on business rather than farming. Sons are preferred over daughters, and they are proud of having sons. To have a boy, you need strong financial backing. Agricultural production cannot support more men. Only doing business can make you rich, thus giving birth to more men.

2. Chaoshan parents do not want their children to work in the same industry and take pride in doing business. If one stays at home and works as a farmer, the other goes into business. Even if two people are doing business, they will be in different industries. This is explained to prevent internal strife.

3. Chaoshan is at the junction of Guangdong and Fujian. It has many mountains and few fields. The geographical environment is not suitable for farming and running a household. There is not enough food at home, forcing Chaoshan people to make a living elsewhere.

4. Chaoshan people have been taught since childhood that doing business can make them rich. The grandfather started the business, and the father continued it. When the father got old, the son took over, and it was passed down from generation to generation. Even if some Chaoshan people go to work to accumulate initial capital, it will not last long. Once they have some money, they will go into business.

5. Generations of Chaoshan merchants have been doing business in a turbulent time. The younger generations of Chaoshan people follow their example. They have lived in poverty since childhood, are perseverant, diligent and frugal, and will never give up until they make money.

Engels, the great teacher of the proletariat, pointed out in his masterpiece that the only business-minded city in China is Shantou. Such a high reputation is due to the hard work and hard work of Chaoshan people from generation to generation. Today they set up a stall and tomorrow they open a shop. They are not afraid of small business, and small money can turn into big money. If you want Chaoshan people to work, unless they have a genetic mutation, they are in their bones. The word "business".

As the saying goes: You will make a fortune in a small life, but you can only spend your life in spite of your hard work! This means that there is more room for development in business, and you will grow from a young age to a big one, and whatever you earn is your own. The salary for working is determined by others, and it also depends on other people’s faces. It’s not free! Therefore, fashion people adhere to this sentence and insist on doing this kind of thing according to this concept.

This is local characteristics and habits.

Set up a street stall. No matter how small the business is, you are still the 'boss'. You can train yourself in practice, discover yourself, and find yourself in action. Once you succeed, you will be the ‘big boss’.

Isn’t it shameful to work for others, toil every day, every month, for a dead salary, to look at other people’s faces, and to listen to other people’s orders?

What do you think?

If you want to gain wealth. You have to start a business. You can never get rich by working part-time. Even if you graduated from Tsinghua University and Peking University. It’s just a salary. Come start a business and your wealth will be endless. People must have dreams. Want to gain financial freedom. Entrepreneurship is the only way to go.

Don’t deify us Chaoshan people. There are always more people working than doing business.

It’s just that the proportion is a little higher than in most areas, just a little more

To be honest, excluding state-owned enterprises and civil servants, the money earned by setting up a stall is no less than that of ordinary migrant workers. Setting up a stall is also a technical job. If you have this skill to make money, why bother to work a part-time job with less money and more frustration?

First of all, it is the way of thinking of Chaoshan people, and secondly, the geographical location is good, at the cusp of reform and opening up, there are business opportunities everywhere, so they look down on the benefits brought by working. A long time ago, Chaoshan people relied on small businesses to make a living, and this continues to this day. Growing up in business families, Chaoshan people have been immersed in business, so Chaoshan people have had a business acumen since they were young.

Most Chaoshan people who are bosses are uneducated. Although they are not good at studying, they are good at doing business. They are good at discovering business opportunities around them and constantly practice while learning. , which is also inseparable from their naturally smart minds. They don't have much interest in a comfortable life and a stable job. They would rather get up early and work late at night to do business than work for others. Although they will have a hard time every day, they believe that their efforts must be better than working part-time!

In addition, most Chaoshan people have ambitions. Making money by working is not what they want. Although starting a business is risky, it can satisfy good material needs and is better than working. For example, a small pendulum Street stalls can earn hundreds of dollars a day. This is the difference between working and running your own business.

Looking at China’s entrepreneurs worth over 100 million, most of them are Chaoshan people. Chaoshan people are famous for being proficient in business!
