The success of a confused young entrepreneurs

Hung "chairman" of the title of countless people now, various kinds of "principals" many people. Xie Tao, only to the "managers" title, people Juezhe fresh.

Xie Tao can Guangdong Baiyun Institute, the Guangzhou Institute of technicians and senior technicians Guangzhou Trade and Industry, chairman of the school, but people always used to call him "the Council." "He is not an ordinary investors, but a professional educator." This is the Executive Director of feng schools can be reluctant to praise for the Tao, chairman of the reasons.

A confused young people's choice

Family with a child to do factories, business-to-tao, at the age of 24 with a 20 million yuan of deposits.

1989, the PRD began to build a film of the factory, there are opportunities, there are all business. All this gave the lead just 20-may-tao was confused and uneasy.

Clearly, Xie Tao may have lost money on interest. He sold his factory, hand over all the business, intend to go abroad to play.

Waiting for a visa those days, confused and do nothing, he started thinking: Zhenggou the money now, so in the next Ban Beizi Chihewanyue spent in the right »

Xie Tao can be done as early as in the factory when eyeing a business: each bring Yibo children of migrant workers, the factory will be invested great energy, space and manpower training. "Who can liberate these factories throughout the Pearl River Delta, who will be able to get tremendous benefits return."

In the days such as visas, this thing in the Tao-can continue to linger in their minds: China's future there will be more factories, but for those who will train skilled factory workers? »

Vocational education - Xie Tao in the library, can find the answer

Xie Tao decided to give up to go abroad, but has run its own school - the first application of technical schools in Guangzhou Baiyun. Rented a waste of troops barracks, schools and factories around the digging of the 78 teachers, and to a nearby factories one by one single child dissemination of information.

The beginning, the school only motorcycle repair, maintenance of equipment and clothing several professional beauty salons. "The first training course, more teachers than students." Xie Tao recalled to the original scenario, could not help but laugh. However, by the end of the year, the students have reached nearly 1,000.

Xie Tao now be in possession of three schools, the number of students has more than 16,000 people. From the first school run so far, it is 16. "An annual average of 1000 to increase the number of people." Xie Tao can be said that in order to ensure the quality, and he now has to control the scale of enrollment.

From the original 20 million yuan, to the present owner Ji Yiyuan assets, changing not only the book on the figures, but Xie Tao of life can choose. He then that is no longer confused youth, is no longer only focused on the business of businessmen, but a respectable professional educators.

The needs of the market is our culture

Give thanks to Tao for the professional educators, the Office of Vocational Education in Schools "star principals" Wu Weicheng. The old principal, once led by the metallurgical industry in Guangzhou Guangzhou caused by a technical school run vocational and technical institutions of the "Star." National Vocational Education was the big slide, a principal of a private two remote phase encouraged, Xingxingxiangxi.

"The most difficult days, a number of vocational schools run by the closure of one. Baiyun schools but not quite over, but large-scale Yuezuo Yue." Wuwei Cheng-tao that can be truly grateful to find a vocational education law, "If he Is a pure businessman, certainly can not do today. "

Xie Tao can be recognized, in the way of vocational education, has encountered strong resistance, but also encountered a lot of temptations. The mid-1990s, while vocational education is recession, the other side, various elite primary and secondary schools, all types of private universities swarmed the sky. However, Xie Tao can not move away his view, does not depend on the rejuvenation of the Chinese people have become each university-educated elite talent, but must rely on more skilled personnel.

Insiders know, do the results of vocational education in slowly, not only have to buy their own land for school buildings, but also the basis of market demand for buying the most advanced experiments, training equipment. These devices, often hundreds or even several million yuan. This alone, the annual school expenditures have more than 10 million. "We are engaged in vocational education, rather than academic education." Xie Tao can always remind the staff. He judged on the quality of teaching standards are: the needs of the market is our culture. Therefore, every two years, Xie Tao will be organized all teachers, many of the country to revise curricula and teaching materials, or simply write their own material.

When businessmen in the minds of a vision

This year turned 40-year-old Xie Tao can, in many domestic and foreign schools to read books, "but did not won a graduation certificate." Schools Chief Executive Officer feng look seriously said each to a school, he only pick their favorite Knowledge Learning, the other on the natural course of the test, however.

"Every school to the development of the most critical juncture, he will learn from." Feng this can be summed up even Xie Tao not aware of their own.

1992, the Office of Vocational Education two years later, Xie Tao can, to study in Singapore. Studies upon returning, the Guangzhou Baiyun application of technical schools upgraded to the Guangdong Baiyun Vocational and Technical College.

1996, the Guangzhou Baiyun schools to set up industrial and commercial craft. At that time, Xie Tao can participate in the East China Normal University, the first phase of post-graduate vocational education management classes.

……

"I would like to not understand the time, it will take some vocational education in front of the country to learn" he said. "Managers" come back into the school at that time, school principals and middle cadres of the most headaches. "Once learn new things, he will be in school to try drastic." Guangdong Baiyun Institute of small-hung, vice president of Dr Sun Yat-sen University from digging up the talent.

Speaking of "managers", where small-and Teachers are afraid. "He rarely subject to the traditional concept of education
The shackles, but the perception from the community to things to experience, explore, to not understand the time, similar to those in schools abroad to study. "He small-hung said that today's white clouds, many things with foreign vocational education fully synchronized.

Early this year, the Ministry of Education approval of the Guangdong Baiyun Vocational Institute of Technology upgraded to universities, and changed its name to Guangdong Baiyun Institute. School principals, teachers are very excited, "we can finally has the actual business of learning." Xie Tao may have seriously told them: "We should train undergraduate application of high-tech innovation, rather than the traditional theory of talent."

Xie Tao could be the target is to bring clouds into application-oriented university, we must cultivate is China's "Hui Ling" and not "white-collar workers." However, he could not convince the school so many professors, lecturers and management staff. "The world's best vocational education experts to go to school, for everyone to brainwashing." This is the executive director of LIU then received the order.

Soon a cost of more than 100 million international forum for senior vocational education held in Baiyun, China Vocational Education experts Pan Maoyuan, Wang Jisheng, and so on and Germany, the United States, Australia, and other nine countries in more than 20 experts and scholars, in the Baiyun Institute a three-day brainstorming.

"I said we could not, but these top experts said, everyone of the letter of it." Kingboard like to thank the help of outside forces to solve their own problems. Over the years, he will leave with each of the schools and teachers at all levels responsible for overseas study.

He said small-hsiung, the school holidays every year to send teachers to study abroad, after the end of each school teachers have got the certificates, or to go abroad all the costs are not reimbursed.

"We must cultivate the best of Chinese talents." Xie Tao can be said that the board had decided in the next five years, and then invested 500 million yuan, China's Baiyun a result of the application of the best engineering and technology universities.

Perhaps with the characteristics of the vocational education, Xie Tao can never not talk about "ideal" of the word. But in the eyes of many colleagues, vocational education is his greatest ideals. "When businessmen in the minds of a vision." This is grateful to Tao Wu Weicheng of the evaluation.
