Ren Zhengfei said: It is not the Americans who really stuck in Huawei, but the Chinese. I felt very uncomfortable when I saw this report recently.
A few days ago, TSMC, which accounts for more than 60% of the world's market share of , announced the opening of its US factory. Executives of semiconductor chip related companies and celebrities from all walks of life, including American politicians, appeared at the ceremony, more than half of which were Chinese faces.
As we all know, the global semiconductor chip industry should be the world of Chinese. Looking at the global chip design list, among the top 10 companies, Chinese companies account for 75.48%; the founders or CEOs of the top 10 companies are also Chinese, including well-known semiconductor giants such as TSMC's Zhang Zhongmou , Nvidia's Huang Renxun .
The reality today is that mainland China's chips are backward and sanctioned. Chinese people have developed high-end chip technology in the United States. China bought it at a high price, which is sad.
Regarding the problem of "chicken runs into other people's nests to lay eggs", Ren Zhengfei once hit the nail on the C9 University Alliance: the problem of chip chokes does not need to be solved by universities. Domestic universities should dare to break the ground and cultivate more patriotic talents.
A flash, Ren Zhengfei is already 78 years old this year.
Today I will talk to you about this 44-year-old who is in debt of 2 million yuan and divorced, and has difficulty starting his entrepreneurial journey, saying that he "really matured when he is 50 years old" - Huawei founder Ren Zhengfei.
1. I can’t eat enough, but I have the unconditional love of my parents
is the president of Huawei. Ren Zhengfei can’t eat any delicacies. But who would have thought that it was a luxury to be able to eat enough in his childhood, and hunger was the norm. Even the simplest wish to eat a white flour bun was not realized until he graduated from high school.
Ren Zhengfei was born in 1944 in a rural area in Ning County, Anshun Town, Guizhou Province. Both of his parents were middle school teachers. How do two intellectuals with meager income support seven children?
In that era, I could only rely on "stinginess" and frugality. The meals for each child are distributed by the mother according to the quantity. Ren Zhengfei was preparing for the college entrance examination and was often hungry, which led to inattention. He had to use the remaining rice bran and vegetables at home to eat it. After his mother learned about it, she saved him a small corn cake every day. Ren Zhengfei was even more afraid to let his mother down and tried hard to get admitted to Chongqing Institute of Architecture and Engineering (later incorporated into Chongqing University ).
Ren Zhengfei
when he was young, "I was able to get into college, and the little corn cakes have made great contributions. If this is not the case, maybe I can't get into a company like Huawei. There is an extra pig farmer in society, or a skilled craftsman on the street."
Although there is a shortage of material resources, my mother gave him unconditional love. Not only did he satisfy him in food, but he also made him dress decently. At that time, each person had a cloth ticket of only 0.5 meters per year, and he was reluctant to wear new clothes. In order to make Ren Zhengfei happy, he "gives his fortune" and made him two shirts. The corn kernels that the neighbors fell on the ground were picked up by their mother to make cornmeal for him to make dry food on the road.
In order to make a "new quilt" for Ren Zhengfei, his father and mother asked the whole village for the head of cloth before they could get it together.
Ren Zhengfei’s father
The father was defeated in the next ten years of catastrophe. After suffering all the hardships, he still gritted his teeth and held on for his son, and even gave Ren Zhengfei his only pair of leather shoes. Decades later, Ren Zhengfei still blamed himself when he thought of this:
"My father was locked in a cowshed and had to do a lot of hard work. He needed these shoes more than me, but I put them away."
2. When he was middle-aged, he had nothing and had everything
After graduating from university, Ren Zhengfei became an infrastructure engineering soldier and also ushered in his first marriage. Governor 's daughter Meng Jun fell in love with this aspiring young man who had no money but was very talkative. The rich and beautiful woman were willing to follow the poor boy and only seek love.

The two had two children after marriage (the eldest daughter was Meng Wanzhou ), and they have been living a plain and happy life. It was not until 1987 that Ren Zhengfei suffered a Waterloo in his life. In a TV business, he went into production without even paying a deposit. As a result, the person ran away and wasted more than 2 million yuan (the average monthly salary in mainland cities was less than 100 yuan at that time, this amount was a sky-high price for ordinary people). The company decided to fire him.
To make matters worse, his career was not going well and his family's backyard also caught fire. Because my wife was not rich in raising children, she suddenly owed a huge amount of 2 million yuan in debt. In addition, she had conflicts with her parents-in-law, so she filed for divorce directly.
43-year-old Ren Zhengfei is middle-aged and has nothing to do. His family and career failed. He lives in a rental house of more than ten square meters with his parents and nephews. He has to rely on him for a young and a young man. How can he be miserable? When he was in the most impoverished, his mother rushed to the vegetable market to close the stalls every day to pick up rotten leaves that the stall owner wanted and buy the lowest price of dead fish and shrimps, which helped the family to survive the most difficult days.

The crisis also contains a turning point. In 1988, 44-year-old Ren Zhengfei bottomed out and took the 21,000 yuan he borrowed from all over the world and embarked on the road of entrepreneurship - registering Huawei company . Everyone knows the story later. Huawei has become one of the world's equipment supplier giants, and it is China's pride.
Every step I took in the past is full of dangers and difficult roads. Ren Zhengfei did not have the courage and courage to persist for a second, and he would not have everything he has now.
3. Eternal regret, lifelong regret
The biggest regret in life is that the son wants to support his parents but his parents are not waiting for him. Ren Zhengfei made the company so big and got the whole world, but his old age was not taken care of by his mother, which became an eternal pain in his heart.
Mother's love supports Ren Zhengfei through many cold winters of his life, but Ren Zhengfei, who is always talked about by his mother, goes on a business trip abroad during the Spring Festival every year. In 2001, Ren Zhengfei was praised in person for accompanying national leaders to Iran. He originally wanted to call her to share happiness with his mother, but he gave up because he was afraid of being nagged by her mother. He decided to go back and talk later. Anyway, he would accompany her well during the Spring Festival in the future.
Ren Zhengfei, who was queuing alone to take a taxi on a business trip, never thought that a hesitation would end happiness abruptly. My mother, who was far away in Kunming, Yunnan, had a car accident while going out to buy vegetables. After receiving a call from her family, Ren Zhengfei redirected from abroad for many times overnight. Good fortune makes people feel bad. When he arrived at his mother's bed, he glanced at his mother for the last time, and it was always separated from heaven and man.
Later, Ren Zhengfei, who could not let go of his feelings for a long time, always recalled over and over again: If he had called his mother in time that day, his mother would have been one or two minutes late when she went out. Wouldn't she have encountered that car accident?
It's a pity, there is no if.
What made Ren Zhengfei cry even more was that when he was sorting out his mother's relics, he discovered that his mother, who was frugal by nature, had specially left him with tens of thousands of dollars he had saved with hard work. Behind it is the mother's good intentions. The mother is worried that if he encounters difficulties in his business in the future, the money can at least make his son feel safe.
Mother is so great, always thinking about protecting the children. Even if he succeeds like Ren Zhengfei, this tough guy in the eyes of outsiders is just a child who will be worried about whether he has a good meal.
Of course, no matter how old you want to do, you can start as long as you want, it is not too late. Life never lacks the courage to start over again. "When you are smooth, you are full of crisis awareness; after being in a desperate situation, you show hopeless optimism," paying tribute to Ren Zhengfei.
