According to comprehensive land media reports, Dong Mingzhu, chairman of Gree Electric Appliances, a well-known mainland electrical appliance brand, made a public response on the talk show “Super Interview” on the 19th for the first time about Gree Electric Appliances being dropped from the 2023 Fortune Global 500 list. Said: “It’s not sad at all. I’m happy to see the company’s health. It’s better than the Fortune 500 that exploded.” It seems to be alluding to Country Garden, which has recently fallen into a debt crisis. At the same time, regarding job recruitment, he said, “We don’t recruit people who only want a salary, and hope that young people know what they can do.”
Dong Mingzhu said, “Seeing the company (Gree Electric Appliances) so healthy makes me happy. It’s better than the world’s top 500. What’s the point of the world’s top 500? It only depends on the sales revenue. I know whether the company is good or not; Is there any disease? I know.”
She pointed out that the benefits of being a Fortune 500 company include: first, the government will give you a high regard; second, it is easy to get a loan from a bank. But the real development of an enterprise depends on its internal capabilities, innovation strength, talent accumulation and management level.
In July 2019, Gree Electric entered the Fortune Global 500 list for the first time, ranking 414th. From 2020 to 2022, Gree will continue to be on the list, ranking 436th, 488th, and 487th respectively. However, in August 2023, when the list of the world’s top 500 companies was released, Gree failed the list.
It is worth noting that Country Garden, a real estate company that has recently reported a debt explosion, ranks 206th in this year’s list of the world’s top 500 with an operating income of approximately US$63.9 billion in 2022. Since its debut in 2017, Country Garden has been on the list for seven consecutive years.
And Dong Mingzhu also put forward her views on the employment of young people. She mentioned in the program that although young people can get a college diploma, they have to consider and ask themselves what they can do, not because of how much money they can get with a college diploma, but because How much can you do to get paid. She said to tell the employees, “When you recruit, don’t say, ‘I come here and how much salary I want, will you pay me?’, there is no need for such a person.”
Dong Mingzhu said that she hopes that the recruits will know “What can I do? What can I do? What can I do for you? Such children have the opportunity to be cultivated.”
And Dong Mingzhu’s response to the recruitment was on the mainland’s hot search on the 20th, causing many netizens to rebound, “Work is to make money, and it is not good for me to dedicate to the company”, “If the money is enough, I can go to heaven”…Most netizens They think that wages are just to support their families. If there are good development prospects, most of them will pursue better development, which is not inconsistent with asking for wages.
It is worth noting that Meng Yutong, who Dong Mingzhu had previously promoted and was regarded as his successor, resigned from Gree Electric just a while ago. Before and after leaving the company, Meng Yutong first posted on social platforms: “Relying on others is never as good as relying on yourself.” After deleting the blog post, he said, “Without Gree’s platform and Dong Zong, I am nothing.” Meng Yutong has repeatedly stated to the outside world that “the work intensity is too high” and “the working hours are too long”. He also said that “the monthly salary is less than 10,000 yuan”.Dong Mingzhu, chairman of Gree Electric Appliances, responded to recent hot issues on a talk show on the 19th, saying that it is not sad to be out of the world’s top 500, and it is better than thunder.
