At 2: 30 in the morning, in the dead of night in Taipei, a light slowly lights up on the third floor of Formosa Plastics Building/KLOC-0 at the bottom of Dunhua North Road. A 90-year-old man got up to work. He is Wang Yongqing, chairman of Formosa Plastics Group. 52 years is like a day.
Wang Yongqing sleeps 10 every night, gets up at 2: 30 to go to work, and works more than 100 hours a week. Every day, there will always be steady and slow footsteps in the quiet Formosa Plastics Building, and a tall and straight figure will appear.

Wang Yongqing often said: always be on guard against yourself, a little slack will lead to recession, and always be on guard against the wealth of three generations. ? Nothing is difficult in the world? . Wang Yongqing's words run through his life's struggle.
The formation of life beliefs and habits is often inextricably linked with childhood growth experiences. As we all know, Wang Yongqing is a real self-made man. June 5438+0917 65438+10/8 was born in Taipei County. Lover Valley? In a remote place, parents grow tea for a living, and their family circumstances are very difficult. They eat sweet potatoes for three meals a day. Although the Wangs are poor, their father is illiterate, so he attaches great importance to children's education. When Wang Yongqing was 7 years old, he was sent to Xindian Primary School by his father. School is away from home 10 km. Wang Yongqing must get up early in the morning, fetch water from a nearby well, and fill the big water tank at home before walking to school. After school, I often go home to raise pigs with a bag of 50 kg of feed on my shoulder. When Wang Yongqing was 9 years old, his father was ill in bed, and the family's livelihood depended entirely on his mother Wang Zhan's growing vegetables, sweet potatoes and pigs. As a result, Wang Yongqing, who was in the third grade of primary school, began to work and study, looking after cows for her neighbors and earning 50 cents a month to supplement her family. The schoolbag he used in primary school is a pocket made of coarse cloth towels, and the clothes he wears are patched. He is barefoot all day and hardly wears a pair of shoes. During primary school, Wang Yongqing, who was not interested in books, never studied hard, so his grades were always ranked last in the class 10.
As the saying goes, children from poor families are in charge early. Young Wang Yongqing understands his parents' situation very well. In order to share the pressure of family life, 15-year-old Wang Yongqing had no choice but to drop out of school after graduating from primary school. Because I couldn't find a job in my hometown, I got my parents' consent and was introduced by my uncle Wang to work as a coolie in a rice shop in Chiayi. At that time, glistening rice was Wang Yongqing's dream. Because of this, he cherishes this job very much. In addition to working hard, he also carefully observed the boss's knack of running a rice shop to prepare for starting his own business in the future.
Wang Yongqing once said a thought-provoking remark: When I was young, I couldn't study further. When I grow up, I have to work for a living and have no chance to receive formal education. As a person who has no special skills like me, only efforts can make up for it. I often think that because of the hardships of life, I have the spirit and courage to overcome difficulties. The hardships of my childhood may be a gift from God. ? Therefore, hard work is the key to Wang Yongqing's success.
Be diligent in everything and rationalize everything.
Wang Yongqing's simple personal life is the most talked about topic in the media. Before being interviewed by reporters, he poured the creamer into the coffee and washed the milk balls in the coffee three times to ensure that the creamer was completely dissolved in the coffee. When you send the guests away, drink the rest of the coffee at one go. The thrifty personality is revealed.
Formosa Plastics Group entered its 53rd year this year. More than half a century later, Wang Yongqing is still frugal. He thinks everything is important? Rationalization? Making the best use of everything is rationalization, doing the best, and stopping at the best is rationalization. Wang Yongqing's business card holder was developed by Formosa Plastics? Can't you tear it?

His favorite collection of celebrity calligraphy and painting in his life is to go to the opera and insist on jogging all the year round. He opened a vegetable garden on the top floor of Formosa Plastics. Before his mother died, he ate all his vegetables. There is a small piece of soap left, which must be glued to the whole piece to continue to use; Doing fitness towel exercises every day, a towel has been used for 27 years.

Daughter Wang Xuehong once revealed to the media that their brothers and sisters were not rich in the United States before, because their father provided tuition and living expenses accurately, just like managing his business, and he always gave them? Just right? Don't let them have the opportunity to enjoy luxury. In addition, the contact with children is to write letters and never call. Because making a phone call is too expensive? . Wang Xuehong's mother Liao Jiao also confirmed in an interview that her children must write back and report how much they spent, and even write down a piece of toothpaste!
Wang Yongqing is also a very low-key person, and rarely gives personal interviews. In his eyes, as long as a person works hard, he doesn't need to tell everyone about his personal experience. In this chaotic era, he sticks to his own behavior and a traditional industry. His children don't seem to think their father is a rich man. Therefore, Wang Yongqing was once rated as one of the top ten cities in the world by a certain media? The most stingy? The head of the rich.
