Chu Shijian, former chairman of Yunnan hongta group and founder of Chu Orange, passed away.

According to the news of Chu Orange Manor, Chu Shijian, former chairman of Yunnan hongta group Co., Ltd. and Yuxi Hongta Tobacco (Group) Co., Ltd. and founder of Chu Orange, passed away. Chu Shijian is a native of Yuxi, Yunnan, one of the most controversial financial figures in China, the former chairman of Hongta Tobacco (Group) Co., Ltd. and the "tobacco king of China". Chu's fate curve, many young people who have never experienced the peak of Hongta Mountain know Chu's story through dictation: In 2003, the two met for the first time in Ailao Mountain, and 76-year-old Chu was dressed in a sweatshirt and tanned, squatting in the orchard and bargaining with the old farmer, hoping to cut it cheaper from 80 yuan. Chu Shijian, once one of the most controversial entrepreneurs: a teenager lost his wife, his brother died in battle and made a living alone; Wearing a "Rightist" hat to run a sugar factory, he later took over Yuxi Tobacco Factory, became famous with the enterprise, and was jailed at the peak. 1993 or so, Yuxi Tobacco Factory made a profit and tax of 8.5 billion yuan a year, which was equivalent to the total fiscal revenue of more than 300 medium-sized agricultural counties at that time. Usually, there are more than10 billion yuan in the account of the factory. Chu Shijian, who was reborn after the robbery, took a fancy to Ailao Mountain in the west of Xinping Gasa, which is 3 hours' drive from Yuxi. The mountain road is winding, and banana forests and sugarcane forests can be seen along the way. Opportunity is a very interesting thing. In the sixties and seventies, the lonely "Rightist" Chu Shijian stayed in Xinping for more than ten years, mainly as the director of a sugar factory. 1979 When I left Xinping for Yuxi Tobacco Factory, my family thought I would never come back. But after more than 20 years, he returned to Xinping and took root here. "Xinping is a place that treats our family well," Chu Shi Jian said of Xinping. Hongta Mountain, Prison and Xinping, the old Chu showed extraordinary tenacity to the outside world. For the previous prison storm, Chu played down this ups and downs. He said to "Finance About You": "First, I think there is nothing wrong with life? Second, if you think I'm wrong, I can correct it. Life should make some contributions to society and the country at any time. Different conditions, good conditions contribute more, and poor conditions contribute almost less. During that time, as an ordinary person, I always thought I couldn't do it. The friend said, forget it, don't do it, what will happen if you do it? The state does not recognize it. I said that we have made mistakes ourselves, and we can do it again. I used to work for my country, but I was bound by its rules and regulations. Now I do it myself. Let's give it a try and plant an orchard. " At first, Chu Shijian and his brother Chu Zuo Shi ran the orchard together, but a year later, their ideas were different. These sweet orange varieties originated in Hunan and have been widely planted in Yunnan since 1970s. Starting from the original 900 mu orchard in Ailao Mountain, it expanded to 2,400 mu in 2003. The initial tens of millions of yuan of leased land came from the support of family, relatives and friends; Paid off in 2007. Every detail, repairing the pond, fertilizing, selling oranges ... In the first few years of the orchard, the energy of the old people lost to the young people. Farmers call him "Chu Da Die", and Chu Da Die is strict enough to stare at them to unload every fruit seedling; I will also put candy in my pocket and give it to the workers and children in the orchard; Pat people on the shoulder when they are angry and call them "buddies". Call them "bastards" when they are in a hurry. A string of "mysterious numbers" speaks for itself. 199 1 Chu was sentenced to life imprisonment and deprived of political rights for life for corruption. At this time, his daughter has committed suicide in Henan prison, and his wife is also in prison. This former "king of cigarettes" fell. In 2002, Chu Shijian was released on medical parole. At the age of 75, he decided to grow oranges, a traditional crop in Huaning County, his hometown. He raised 6,543,800 yuan from his former friends and contracted 2,400 mu of * * farm on Ailao Mountain. Walking into the reception hall of Chu Orange Manor, a string of numbers "5 162667 17484" is suspicious. The staff explained to the reporter, "This is Chu Shijian's life." The mysterious figure in the orange manor. Photo: Changhong, 5 1 40 years ago, Yuxi Cigarette Factory, the predecessor of hongta group, was on the verge of bankruptcy. Until 1979, in the second year of China's reform and opening up, 5 1 year-old Chu became the director of Yuxi cigarette factory. In 6266, after Chu became the director of Yuxi Cigarette Factory, he boldly carried out technical transformation, introduced first-class equipment from abroad, learned foreign tobacco planting technology, taught local farmers tobacco planting knowledge, and reformed and innovated tobacco production system and management, making Yunnan cigarettes sell well all over the country and enjoy a high reputation in the world. He single-handedly developed this shabby small factory into a "printing machine", with fixed assets of 7 billion yuan and annual profits and taxes of about 20 billion yuan 1998, and founded the first brand in China, "Hongtashan", with a value of 33.2 billion yuan, ranking first in Asia and fifth in the world among tobacco enterprises. Chu Shijian's practice in Yuxi cigarette factory proves that choosing reform and opening up is the right way. A small billboard in the manor reads, 1990, Chu Shijian was named one of the top ten entrepreneurs in China at the age of 62; 1994, 66-year-old Chu was named as one of the top ten reformers in China. 7 1, a tip-off letter sent La Chu into the trough of his life. 1995, the Commission for Discipline Inspection of the CPC Central Committee received a tip-off letter, reflecting that individual cigarette dealers in Luoyang, Henan Province colluded with tobacco companies to obtain cigarette indicators by bribing Chu family. After 20 years of reform and opening up, a "59-year-old phenomenon" trap became popular. Chu fell into the trap before retiring at the age of 67 and became a footnote of the times. The Yunnan Provincial Procuratorate filed a public prosecution with the Yunnan Provincial High Court for the crime of suspected corruption and the crime of unclear source of huge amounts of property. 1999, Yunnan Provincial High Court sentenced him to life imprisonment and deprived him of political rights for life for the crime of corruption and the crime of huge amount of unidentified property. Chu Shijian 7 1 year old. The punishment of Chu once aroused heated discussion from all walks of life, and also promoted the establishment and improvement of some systems such as the salary of the heads of state-owned enterprises at that time. In 2002, 74-year-old Chu Shi Jian was released on medical parole for suffering from severe diabetes. He began to grow sugar oranges in Xinping County, Yuxi. A documentary of "Chu Orange Manor" shows that Chu Shijian, who was full of silver hair at that time, started his second venture on this mountain. "At that time, Chu Shijian was penniless," said Lin An, director of Chu Orange Manor Office. "It was the overseas Chinese in Singapore who funded him." Chu loves spicy chicken and spicy fish. Spicy people are enthusiastic and brave, and they often have a good time. Chu's view on reform and opening up is very accurate: characteristic agriculture and the Internet are the future trends. He and his wife made up their minds to contract barren hills and start planting sugar oranges. Chu once said that the cultivation of citrus was investigated. From the natural conditions such as temperature difference, soil, sunshine and water source, Xinping in Yuxi is suitable for planting chilled oranges. In the early days of reform and opening up, Chu paid attention to the scientific cultivation and production of tobacco, which made him embark on the peak of reform and opening up and become a figure in reform and opening up. When he started his second business, he did the same, and he also relied on technology to grow oranges. After planting citrus reticulata, Chu Shijian constantly improved the planting method. In order to ensure the sweetness of each orange, he strictly stipulated how many square meters a tree should be planted, how many trees should be planted in an acre of mountain, how many fruits should be hung on each tree, and how to water it in drought. All these require Chu Shijian and technicians to communicate with fruit farmers from door to door, teach them technology by hand, and explain to them why not more is better. Title #e#, after harvest, there is a professional evaluation machine to classify oranges and determine the income of fruit farmers. Most farmers in Xinping are poor households, but those who planted fruits with Chu later got rid of poverty, and their annual income can reach about 100 thousand. When Chu was 84 years old, Chu orange entered the Beijing market on a large scale and began to be sold all over the country. Facts have proved that the success of "Chu Orange" benefits from the new industrial chain created by the rapid development of Internet in China in recent years. Now, the story of Chu Shijian and Chu Orange has become a household name, and it has become a representative case of "Internet plus plateau agriculture" in China. This is also the second miracle created by Chu in the reform and opening up, while China's reform and opening up has created a miracle in the history of human development.
