The emergence of Apple phones has set off a reform of smartphones. Because Apple phones are too expensive, some domestic mobile phone manufacturers have emerged, including the Xiaomi mobile phone , which is famous for its cost-effectiveness.
You may not know that The founder of Xiaomi Lei Jun was financially free before founding Xiaomi, so why did he come out to find Xiaomi?
Recently, Lei Jun said in an interview that he was financially free at the age of 37. He had already led the Kingsoft team to complete the IPO. He felt it was time to retire, so he semi-retired for three or four years. During this period, he thought that he had read a book "The Fire of Silicon Valley" at the age of 18.
After thinking about the "Fire of Silicon Valley" again, Lei Jun changed his semi-retired state and decided to start a technology company.
This technology company is now Xiaomi. Lei Jun said that the reason for founding Xiaomi is very simple. He wanted to start a company that can influence the world like the people in "Silicon Valley Fire", such as Microsoft , Google , Apple , etc.
may have led Kingsoft to complete an IPO, which is not satisfied with Lei Jun. This can only represent his own business capabilities. Since he has the ability, why not start a company by himself, a company that can influence the whole world, so that people all over the world will know "Lei Jun".
Since then, Lei Jun has begun his entrepreneurial journey. Once Xiaomi mobile phone was launched, because the mobile phone is cheap and equipped with all the top configurations at that time, it was sought after by young people at that time. Xiaomi mobile phones have become famous since then. Xiaomi has also expanded its business at the same time. Now you can see various smart home appliances of Xiaomi.
