080. The board of directors is the brain of the enterprise, and whether the enterprise has a good board of directors is crucial to the healthy development of the enterprise. The great thing about the board of directors is that it needs to make a choice between development and risk. If it only pays attention to development and ignores risk, the enterprise may collapse; if it only pays attention to risk and ignores development, the enterprise may stop moving forward.

Entrepreneurs should stick to it for a long time, regard the enterprise as a lifelong career, and never slacken off, let alone escape. Third, responsibility.

It is to give positive feedback to the society, take more social responsibility and be a respected entrepreneur.

Corporate culture, also known as "corporate philosophy", is the most important feature of an enterprise, as well as the common values and code of conduct of employees. Internally, it refers to the strong cohesion and centripetal force of the enterprise, and externally, it refers to the great influence and penetration of the enterprise.

099. In the face of difficulties, we should neither be pessimistic nor blindly optimistic. I advocate that entrepreneurs should be pragmatic and philosophical, be open-minded, be able to take up and put down, despise difficulties strategically and attach importance to difficulties tactically. They should not only have a normal mind, not be impetuous or flustered, but also be enterprising and try their best to solve and overcome difficulties.

100. The economic purpose of an enterprise is to be effective, and the social purpose of an enterprise is to serve the society and make the society better. We should stand on the moral high ground to be an enterprise with character, which protects the environment, is enthusiastic about public welfare, cares about employees and citizens of the world. I advocate doing one thing well in my life, that is, to do a good job in our Chinese enterprises.
