Look at the past

Zhou Hongyi was born in the 70s, from a young age, personality between the bear child and a good boy, like literature, hands-on ability to rebel, from a young age, planted a computer seed, and then was sent to Xi'an Jiaotong University. Self-proclaimed university time is a mouse fell into the rice bowl, the school class environment so that he did not have the slightest relaxation in learning, scrambling to learn, because of individual as well as life reasons to start the first commercial behavior using the computer "fortune-telling", extracurricular part-time activities to broaden his business activities as well as the ability to speak and express themselves.

At that time, because of the impact of the Silicon Valley fever and the virus epidemic, research anti-virus card, the first venture, the use of school computer room and was sent to the Public Security Bureau, their own round-trip to the Special Administrative Region for the purchase of production and sales, for the beginning of the entrepreneurial zeal, perseverance, enthusiasm was ignited.

The second venture was "blacklisted" because of the lack of management experience, resulting in another crisis. After graduation, the first entry into the workplace, creating "Flyer". Entered Beifang Founder because of the character of the reason was banished to Xinjiang to hone, closed to sink the heart to hone the product. Returned to Beijing to meet his wife, Hu Huan, and was recognized for his successful debut based on market emails. He created "Flyer", which was aborted due to the lack of optimism, and left Founder.

Started a garage-style business to make 3721, all for the sake of saving money, after bumping into walls by the capital, the continued development, and then due to management problems, personal apathy, capital indecision led to the project worsened.

Stuck between professional managers and founders, missed the search engine board, after the creation of "rogue" plug-ins to promote themselves, and Baidu head-to-head after defecting to Google unsuccessfully, the last 3721 120 million dollars resold Yahoo.

When he first joined Yahoo, he was very ambitious and helped Yahoo China to develop, but because of the culture and communication, Yahoo's development was blocked and he left Yahoo.

After hibernation, it is difficult to ride the tiger. The birth of Qihoo, the layout of the community search failure, impatience, platform transformation is not focused. The early days of the Internet rogue software proliferation, accidentally entered the field of security, the four sides of the tree enemy. Lone heart to free to win the market, and finally stood out. Starting a business again has been quite experienced, grasp the opportunity.

3Q war started because Tencent into the game, after the initial failure to regroup and attack again, the two sides fight fight desktop, 360 buckle bodyguard detonated the war, and finally faced with a second choice. After the government capital intervention to end the war, tencent open platform. Behind a wave of twists and turns, experienced a variety of emergencies, successfully knocked on the New York Stock Exchange listing. It looks like the scenery is actually painful.

The above is Zhou Hongyi growth, entrepreneurship process. The difficulty of entrepreneurship. Teachers in Zhou Hongyi's growth in the road to help a lot, almost can be said to save Zhou Hongyi, in the late entrepreneurial any step is not easy.

What can we learn from Zhou Hongyi?

Entrepreneurs should always have a "brave heart"

Anything that doesn't kill you will eventually make you strong!

A trapped beast has come back to life. People who keep running forward can't live a clean life for too long, and I feel like - I'm going to start again!

How do people make decisions without the precedent of precedent, and how do they make optimal judgments under Tarzan-like pressure. For entrepreneurs, every day is a stress test.

I firmly believe that no matter how rough the road ahead is and how hard it is to walk, as long as the direction is correct, you are closer to happiness than standing still.

True bravery is not prima donna, but the purity of not forgetting the beginning, keeping the faith, and upholding one's own will never give up, no matter when or where you are.

As a young man, the real luck is not to get a lot of wealth at a very young age, but before adulthood to feel the mission of their own to the world, and have a goal after the effort is not blind.

I suddenly realized that many young people not only do not have ideals in high school, but also do not know what they want to study in college. Many people have even worked and still don't know if the industry they're working in is their true passion.

Through a lot of things, I understand the truth, do something always have to do not count the return, once invested all the feelings, the final return will always come unexpectedly. What I enjoy the most is not the final result of doing something, but in the process of devotion, the kind of indescribable inner peace.

As stated in the 10,000 Hour Genius Theory, to excel in any field is only possible through at least 10,000 hours of practice. And, that practice isn't done in your comfort zone, but rather, it's a matter of practicing intensively in the areas where you're prone to make mistakes.

The biggest cost of working in a foreign company is nothing else but communication. If you don't practice a strong style, it's almost impossible to implement anything.

A big lesson for me is that you have to look ahead, you must be forward-looking. So, I later summarized, success is simmering out, success is forced out, a lot of times, it is to see if you stay up.

Position, money, fame, public attention, these things are in fact external things, are phases, these things are easy to get or lose, the most important thing is that your own ability to enhance your own view of things, your ability to solve problems, these things are your internal accumulation of things, it is someone else can not take away.

The real light is never without dark time, just never be covered by darkness. The real hero is never without humble sentiments, just never be humble sentiments to succumb to.

The mall is the battlefield, we are the same soldiers on the battlefield, business competitors is the enemy we need to face, they are like hungry wolves waiting at our side, ready to devour our customers. If we are afraid, give in, then they open the bloody mouth will even swallow us together.

I remember a quote from Starting a Business: "People always ask me, 'What's the secret to being a successful CEO?' Unfortunately, there is no secret sauce. If such a skill exists, it is in its ability to focus and choose the best route when there is no way out. The moments that make you want to hide or simply die the most, compared to the average person, are what sets you apart from the norm as a CEO."

I've always hoped that 360 wouldn't lose its risk-taking gene

Focus and perseverance became the hardest thing for entrepreneurs.

Looking forward to the future

Zhou Hongyi now became the guardian of network security "national team", from the September 3rd parade, G20, BRICS, the 19th National Congress, and other major conferences and events in the network security (quite a few) are led by 360 to lead. As one of the outstanding team of Internet companies, Qihoo 360 was notified and recognized by the Ministry of Public Security.

There are voices that Zhou Hongyi was "recruited" belonging to his era has been curtains, no longer subversive,

In fact, not recruited just from the front of the stage to the back of the curtain, show their faces less.
