Tạo 4000 tỷ từ hai chỉ vàng và chiếc xe cà tàng| Cô Gia Thọ - Chủ tịch TĐ Thiên Long | 5W1H Podcast

Thien Long ballpoint pens have probably become an iconic image of the school days of many generations of Vietnamese people, especially from the 8x generation of students. After more than 40 years of development, Thien Long Joint Stock Company's products have accounted for more than 60% of the domestic stationery market share and have reached 67 countries around the world with a total capitalization value of up to 4 trillion VND. However, few people know and remember that it all started with the first capital of 2 taels of gold and a dilapidated bicycle that Mr. Co Gia Tho, the founder of Thien Long brand, used to deliver small ballpoint pens and wrote a part of the history of Vietnam's economy during the renovation period. In this episode of the 5W1H podcast, journalist Vu Kim Hanh sat down to chat with her long-time friend, Ms. Gia Tho - Chairman of the Board of Directors of Thien Long Group - and reminisced about the journey of establishing and developing the Thien Long brand in the footsteps of the title of High Quality Vietnamese Goods since its inception, in harmony with the vibrant rhythm of the domestic economy for 4 decades. #5w1hpodcast #maybevn #maybepodcast #vietnamleaders #thienlongcorp #CoGiaTho Main contents 02:03 - THE BICYCLE AND 2 TALES OF GOLD 02:57 - (How) What is your greatest emotion in the journey of more than 40 years of Thien Long? 05:00 - (What) What hardships did you experience in that first stage? 05:52 - (What) What chance did you have to meet your wife when you were just starting your career? 07:59 - JOURNEY OF MEMORY 09:00 - (Why) Why did you choose a ballpoint pen to start your business? 10:35 - SMALL BUT SOPHISTICATED 10:47 - (What) What materials does Thien Long currently produce for ballpoint pens? 14:39 - (How) How does Thien Long invest in machinery and materials? 16:29 - RESONANCE WITH THE COUNTRY'S ECONOMIC BEAT 18:31 - (What) What are the biggest differences between the role of managing a production facility and a corporation? 20:26 - (What) What experiences has the journey of accompanying the country's economic changes given Thien Long in development? 20:49 - REVERSE MANAGEMENT MODEL 21:43 - (How) How do you transfer the knowledge gained from studying abroad to your team? 23:15 - (How) What is your experience in recruiting, retaining and developing people's capabilities? 25:55 - PERFECTING THANKS TO DIFFICULT CUSTOMERS 26:26 - (What) What is the secret for Thien Long to penetrate and develop quickly in foreign markets? 29:27 - (How) What is Thien Long's strategy for difficult markets like Japan and the US? 30:39 - HIGH QUALITY VIETNAMESE PRODUCTS 31:27 - (What) What are the most memorable memories in your long journey with the HVNCLC Business Association? 34:34 - LONG STEPS ON SHORT LIFE CYCLES 35:54 - (How) What is Thien Long's upcoming development strategy? 38:55 - ADVICE FOR YOUNG STARTUPS 40:07 - (What) What advice do you have for young entrepreneurs? 45:53 - CAREER AND FAMILY 46:05 - (What) What is the secret to maintaining balance between all aspects of life? 49:07 - (How) How do you balance the need to communicate after work and time for family?
