My thoughts after visiting some companies of Liulin Lexus Group

On December 8, 2019, I had free time to visit with my friends the coal consolidation station and coal transportation line built by Lingzhi Group on the bank of the Yellow River in Liulin County, as well as Chen Hongzhi’s private mansion and the house he built for the villagers. New Village. The scale and high specifications are really impressive. However, it is sad that the boss of an enterprise of this scale has been given a reprieve. All these aroused my interest in his ups and downs in life, so I learned about his past experiences from local people and some employees of Lexus Group. All kinds of folk rumors and his life trajectory are touching!

In 1999, Chen Hongzhi founded the "Xinghuo Stone Factory" after retiring from the army. Chen Hongzhi earned his first pot of gold by opening a stone quarry. 2003 was a landmark year for his rise in the business world. At the age of 28, Chen Hongzhi took advantage of the rapid growth of the coal economy and began to get involved in the coal industry. In 2005, he formally established Shanxi Lingzhi Energy Investment Group Company. After the merger and reorganization of coal enterprises in Shanxi Province in 2009, Lingzhi Group owns 4 main coal mines, 4 coal washing plants, 1 comprehensive shopping mall (Liaoyuan Commercial Building), 1 five-star hotel (Coal Hotel), full-time There is one provincial-level demonstration junior high school (Chengjiazhuang Demonstration Junior High School), one large-scale printing factory, and one green ecological agricultural park covering an area of ??1,152 acres.

On November 5, 2019, Chen Hongzhi was sentenced to death in the first instance for organizing and leading a mafia-type organization and intentional injury, with a two-year suspension of execution, deprivation of political rights for life, and confiscation of all personal property . With the announcement of this final verdict, this once wealthy man and the business empire he built came to an end.

According to folk rumors, Chen Hongzhi used to live a relatively simple life, but it was not until this year that he became more luxurious. It is said that Chen Hongzhi is very eager to learn. He took 10 years to obtain four adult undergraduate diplomas, all of which are practical majors for his management of enterprises, and he did obtain them by taking the exams himself. It is said that he would read late into the night every day and write about 20 pages of daily notes. How diligent! He also often invites some university professors to give him lectures, most of which focus on business management. He is serious about work and strict in management. It is said that he does not hire a supervision company for any of his projects, but is all supervised by his subordinates. After seeing the quality with his own eyes, it is really impeccable. The people under him were trained to be very good managers. It is said that he asked a professor from Tsinghua University to plan the Mengmen Yellow River Tourism Project for him. Because he was dissatisfied with the other party's plan, he later integrated two planning agencies to make a plan together, but he was still not satisfied. He scolded these experts for not having any affection for Mengmen, and asked the planners to walk several kilometers along the Yellow River with him every morning. He also organized them to visit and study in many 5A-level scenic spots across the country for more than two months. .

However, its huge disadvantage is poor cultivation and bad temper. Rumor has it that he slapped the then county party secretary and his own father, and often insulted and even beat his subordinates in unpleasant language at corporate meetings. Of course, it was later confirmed that he was also guilty of organizing and leading a mafia organization and intentionally causing harm. It is said that one of the reasons why some employees work hard to do a good job is because they are afraid of being abused or beaten. Instead, they cultivate a group of self-disciplined employees. Harsh government seems to be effective within a certain range. ?

Through Chen's story, I think that in order to succeed in your career, you should have several qualities and requirements: 1. Ability; 2. Mobility; 3. Good moral character. Ability must be continuously learned and cultivated; mobility must eliminate one's laziness, strive for excellence in work, and make unremitting efforts; good moral character is the basic guarantee for all activities, otherwise morality will not accumulate wealth, and morality will not match wealth, and it is very likely that in the end He lost both his life and wealth, and was despised by others. Chen Hongzhi obviously possesses the first two qualities, but unfortunately lacks the latter one. His ability and mobility are extremely strong, but it is a pity that he failed to do the last one, which was also the fundamental reason why he was eventually sentenced to a suspended death sentence.
