last century, a large number of Chinese businessmen emerged in Southeast Asia, which not only changed their lives, but also spread their branches and leaves in Southeast Asia, creating a large family business. Everyone
has his own legendary story. Today, the know-it-all wants to introduce to you the world's glassware king who started from a fishing net and was the first "emperor" invited by Tianjin Technological Development Zone!
Lin Ruguang had a hard time when he was a child, and his family lived on his father's fishing. His father died when he was 13 years old, and the only property left to Lin Ruguang was a fishing net.
According to common sense, Lin Ruguang will "inherit his father's career", take over his father's fishing net, and like most people, fish in the sea to support his family.
But to many people's surprise, Lin Ruguang, only 13 years old, after three days of serious thinking, resolutely sold the only means of livelihood-fishing nets, gave up fishing, and took a new road to completely change the poor life.
young Lin Ruguang got his first sum of money by selling fishing nets. Start a small business to make a living.
, Indonesia was in the midst of social unrest." Countless people have chosen to leave Indonesia for other countries. Lin Ruguang chose to go against the trend and contracted a plastic factory of 1500 square meters with only 60000 yuan on hand.
Then he went to Hong Kong to "worship Buddha and seek sutras", learned the manufacturing technology of slippers from the old masters in Hong Kong, and imported a shoe-making machine, which became the earliest shoe factory in Indonesia.
I have to say, Lin Ruguang's eyes are very vicious. Indonesia is located in the rainy tropics and has a large population, but because of the turmoil and the lack of materials, Lin Ruguang's slippers were welcomed by many people and earned him the first pot of gold in his life.
However, due to the sharp increase in import tariffs in Indonesia at that time, the import tariffs on glassware gradually increased from 25% to 75%. In order to reduce costs, Lin Ruguang came up with the idea of running his own factory.
Just do it!
Even so, Lin Ruguang still did not give up, and he went to Japan's Toyo Company many times to discuss the purchase. After many efforts, Lin Ruguang finally gained the trust of the Japanese boss by virtue of his credit and courage in Indonesia.
at that time, Lim's factory was the only one producing glass in Indonesia." Lin Ruguang not only exported glass products to the outside world, but also sold some other products as gifts, which further promoted the sale of glassware.
Since then, Lin Ruguang has begun to develop into a variety of glassware, from raw materials to production to sales. It has also expanded its glass production base to Malaysia, China, Egypt and other regions . When Jiafeng Group's industrial scale in Indonesia continued to expand, Lin Ruguang moved to Singapore when he was looking for a new way out.
This also has the world-famous Jiafeng Group, Lin Ruguang is also known as the " world glassware king ".
But Lin Ruguang was not satisfied with being the king of the glassware industry. In the following time, he continued to extend the business of Jiafeng Group, gradually transiting from glass to glazed tiles, porcelain, stainless steel tableware, moulds and other industries. Become a truly multinational company ~
the development zone at that time, He took the lead in putting forward the idea that "investors are emperors and projects are lifelines". The first "emperor", Lin Ruguang, was invited by the then mayor of Tianjin.
In 1984, Lin Ruguang invested 12 million US dollars to set up the first foreign-funded company in Tianjin Development Zone: Jiatai Ceramics. However, as diplomatic relations between China and Indonesia had not yet been restored at that time, Lin Ruguang had no choice but to change his name to Lin Daoyou and act as an investor in Tianjin. It was not until 1993 that the original name was restored.
Deng Xiaoping inspected Tianjin in 1986, he presented the Tianjin Technological Development Zone with seven Chinese characters: The development zone has great hope.
to give back to the community
Indonesia's first company
to consider employees with disabilities Lin Ruguang has won the Southern Charity Chinese Award
. Basically, after overseas Chinese become rich, they all have a common characteristic: doing charity to give back to society. This is also the excellent moral character of China for 5,000 years.
The Chia Fung Group, founded by Lin Ju-kuang, was the first company in Indonesia to focus on the employment of the disabled. As early as 1977, Jiafeng Group began to introduce machinery and equipment suitable for the disabled. After
Lin Ruguang was sent to the operating room, many disabled employees prayed for him to recover soon.
