Chapter 2123 Amoeba
Author: Wilderness Elegy
Kazuo Inamori is currently the only person in the world who has founded two Fortune 500 companies, which is very amazing.
Just say that in 2012, in mainland China, excluding industry monopolies and administrative monopolies of state-owned enterprises, only Huawei and Shagang were on the list. Lenovo and Suning were not on the list because they were both in their own transformation stages.
Of the entire country, only two private companies, Huawei and Shagang, are on the list, and their rankings are far inferior to those of Inamori Kazuo. So it is not surprising that Inamori Kazuo has become popular in China during this period.
They are really awesome.
Kazuo Inamori's business management model is the "Amoeba" business philosophy he created, and many companies will want to learn from it.
Because of the policy-based admiration for Kazuo Inamori, three hot sectors have emerged in the Chengdu Academy industry.
One, Zen.
Because Inamori Kazuo has been a believer in Buddhism since he was a child. After retirement, he converted to Zen Buddhism and left his home and career to go to a temple to practice. Even Steve Jobs was a Zen believer. This has more theoretical basis. Many people began to use Zen Buddhism out of context.
Learn to guide others to start a company.
2. Yangming Studies.
Because Inamori Kazuo is a disciple of Wang Yangming, and "Yangming Studies" happens to be a traditional culture, many success study masters have begun to use this guise to guide others in starting businesses.
Three, amoeba.
Different from the metaphysics of Buddhism and Yangming studies, Amoeba's business philosophy has strong practicality. Kazuo Inamori has summarized it in a book. He has published a book on how to do each item and how to manage each department.
Already.
So this one is also the most deceptive.
The first two are, at most, deceiving some half-hearted people who only have ambitions but no intelligence. Once "Amoeba" came out, it became so powerful that many well-known entrepreneurs were deceived.
It’s not surprising that Boss Wang is interested in Amoeba’s business philosophy.
Zhou Buqi is very calm.
The first point is that he had been in contact with Inamori Kazuo before, and he had already judged that there was no way he could learn his tricks, and whoever learned them would die.
Another point is the experience of past lives.
Zhou Buqi also opened a small company in his previous life, and he was surrounded by a group of friends who ran small businesses. Many people were deceived by "Amoeba" and implemented the Amoeba model in the company.
The results are all miserable, and no matter what, they all end badly.
Seeing how confident he was, Boss Wang couldn't help but ask: "Not optimistic? Is this model bad?"
Zhou Buqi smiled and said, "Have you met Inamori Kazuo?"
Boss Wang shook his head.
Zhou Buqi said: "Everything in China is talking about the Amoeba business philosophy. In fact, in my opinion, it should be a philosophical thought. Except for Inamori Kazuo, I don't think there are many people in the world who can understand this concept."
Let’s play with it and understand. Anyway, I’m not good at it, I’m not mature enough. I’m just a layman, and Inamori Kazuo is a saint.”
"Saint?" Boss Wang frowned slightly, very disapproving, and unwilling to lift a little devil to such a height, "No! No!"
Zhou Buqi smiled and said: "It's not that kind of conceptual saint, it's... it should be a position in Zen Buddhism, layman, sage and saint."
"How to say?"
Boss Wang was very curious because Inamori Kazuo had indeed converted to Zen Buddhism.
Zhou Buqi said: "If the 'ego' is too strong, you are a common person... you care too much about 'me'. To put it bluntly, you are selfish. You only have eyes for yourself and no one else. For example, the money I earn is mine.
Such conventional secular ideas."
Boss Wang smiled and said: "Then we are all common people."
Zhou Buqi continued: "Since there is 'me' and others in the eyes, he is a sage. The money I earn belongs to both me and others, and everyone can spend it together. Most philanthropists can do this."
If you take one step, you will stop at this step. Anyway, for me, I think this is my ultimate goal."
Boss Wang laughed loudly and felt that this guy was very honest.
Zhou Buqi said: "If there is no 'I', and you have reached the state of 'no-self', and you only have other people in your eyes, then you are a saint in the sense of Zen Buddhism. Before Inamori became a monk, he spent all his family wealth and even failed to eat.
He has to rely on alms. He has reached a state where all my money belongs to others and is given to others. This time I went out to save JAL without asking for a penny in compensation."
"Um."
Boss Wang nodded and fell silent.
It's true.
He asked himself that it was impossible to achieve such a state, and he still wanted to leave the company to his son. This is also the traditional thinking of the Chinese people. The company that he worked hard for must be left to his children to take over.
Anyone who can cross this step is at least a wise man.
If you cannot do this, even if you donate enough money, it will be difficult to overcome the "self-grasping" step and reach the standard of a wise man.
The best performer in China is of course Vanke’s Wang Shi. Not only did he give up his shares in the company, but the successor he selected had no personal relationship with him at all.
He has such a high status in the industry not because he is rich, but because he can really do what others cannot.
Especially when it comes to the selection of successors.
Many private companies in the country are now facing the problem of succession. Many companies are going to have big troubles. There are many cases of father and son turning against each other, and some are even suspected of murder.
In some companies, because they cannot solve this problem, the bosses are still in their 70s and 80s and still dare not retire.
Only Vanke is the best in this regard and can be regarded as a model.
Zhou Buqi said: "The entire Amoeba business philosophy is based on such a spiritual concept of 'selflessness'. For example, if the engineering department wants to ask the design department for help, the design department will consider its own income and performance, so it will issue a
The design fee is very high. This will lead to a significant increase in the project budget. In order to adjust the budget, the engineering department will have to cut corners. Or simply go outside to find a design company to cooperate, and the profits that originally belong to the group will be transferred.
To a third party.”
"Huh?" Boss Wang's eyes widened, "You know a lot about real estate!"
Zhou Buqi smiled and said: "If it is an amoeba concept, this problem can be solved. Every employee must be 'selfless'. The design department must be 'selfless', not caring about their own interests, but also helping the engineering department. Engineering
The department will also consider this and be willing to sacrifice themselves to create profits for the design department. In this way, the conflicts within the company will be resolved, the collaboration between departments will be in order, and the group's profits will not be lost."
Boss Wang slowly thought about it and said: "If we divide it according to the standards of laity, sage, and saint, the vast majority of them are laity. It is too difficult to use the standards of saints to demand laity. Employees must be continuously evaluated.
Just brainwashing."
Zhou Buqi smiled and said: "If Wanda wants to be an amoeba, of course she has to be brainwashed. But if Kazuo Inamori becomes an amoeba, that's not brainwashing, it's called example and the power of example. When Hai Rui became an official, he called on others to be honest.
Everyone believes in integrity. This is not brainwashing, it is a matter of course. If Heshen is in power and then constantly asks others to serve the people with a clear mind, then
It’s just a big joke. Who can believe it? This is proper brainwashing. If Amoeba’s ideas were implemented by Ziweixing, it would be a proper brainwashing tool. I am a vulgar person, and my virtue is not worthy of it. If Inamori
If Kazuo does it, then it is a matter of course. Not only will all employees not have brainwashed disgust and resentment, but they will also have a sense of honor from top to bottom."
Boss Wang felt very enlightened, "Wanda's system is profit-oriented and designed for all ordinary people. We are all ordinary people. From this point of view, there is really no way to recommend Amoeba."
Zhou Buqi smiled and said: "So there are only two types of people who can learn to become amoebas, two extremes. One is the true saint level, falling into a state of selflessness from top to bottom. Just like back then.
Kazuo Inamori founded the operator KDDI. His purpose was to reduce Japan's phone bills and make every family use a phone, and even voluntarily gave up his own profits.
, which in itself is a selfless pursuit. There is another kind, which is a scum-level company. As you said, it must be constantly brainwashed. It can wash the brains of employees into fools and help them even after being sold.
The number of people is high. Then a few company bosses quietly make a fortune, and beautiful women enjoy all the glory and wealth. We are all common people, and we should stay away from amoeba."
In the same way, if someone else said this to Boss Wang, he might not even think about it, and he would be confused by what he heard.
Zhou Buqi is different, his outstanding achievements are there.
In Xia Riba's words, every fart he puts out tastes good.
Boss Wang smiled and raised his wine glass, "Common people and common people, let's have a drink!"
The two of them drank red wine, and what they drank was a ritual.
After taking a sip, Boss Wang said with deep understanding: "I heard what you said, it's really like this. When I return to China, I have to talk to other colleagues when I find an opportunity, and I can't blindly adopt this philosophy in the company.
"
Zhou Buqi said: "Anyway, I manage the company with one idea: don't trust the people you employ, and don't use the people you doubt. Once you use them, you have the courage to believe them. The company is getting bigger and bigger, how can we take care of so many things?"
Boss Wang felt that he spoke too lightly and asked sharply: "How to judge whether he is a suspect?"
Zhou Buqi said with a smile: "The industry is different, so I really don't like it very well. It's quite easy to select people in the technology industry. It's very difficult here in Hollywood. There are suspicions everywhere. You really have to be careful when hiring people."
.Do you know who the CEO of Ziweixing Global is?"
Boss Wang nodded, "Jason, what the hell..."
Zhou Buqi said: "Jason Kilar, do you know what he used to do?"
Boss Wang shook his head and said with a smile: "Don't show off."
Zhou Buqi said: "He used to work at Amazon and was Bezos's right-hand man. Later he changed jobs to start a business and founded Hulu. Later, because he encountered too many constraints at Hulu, he joined Ziweixing Global. He is not a suspect.
People are more trustworthy than the president of Universal Pictures, the president of MGM and so on."
"How to say?"
"If Jason Kilar wanted to make money, he would not have left Amazon. Even if he has a lot of wealth, 1 billion US dollars is still very easy. What he pursues is higher career achievements. These people in Hollywood are all for
Making money. I usually just grasp this essential difference to judge."
