16 basic knowledge you need to know when starting a business.

Once an entrepreneur decides to start his own business, no matter what industry he is engaged in, he must have certain business knowledge and certain management methods in addition to the necessary venture capital, in order to stand out from the cruel business competition and master more initiative in the ever-changing business society. Learning and flexibly using the following 16 aspects of knowledge or skills will make your own entrepreneurial road go further, smoother and easier.

Professional industry skills

This is the basis of starting a business (whether you have been engaged in this industry before or not). If you know nothing about the industry you want to start a business, I advise you to wait for a while and carefully observe and understand it in this field before making a decision. No matter which industry you want to start a business in, the first thing you need is to have a certain understanding of this industry (or be very familiar with it), and to have a certain understanding of the current situation and future development trend of the industry. This is the truth of doing business if you are not familiar with it. If you have certain theoretical knowledge, practical experience, operational skills and contacts in this industry that is about to start a business, you can make a good pre-business plan. Of course, the following knowledge is also very important in starting a business. It is recommended to dabble in it and use it more.

Equity knowledge

Many enterprises were full of enthusiasm at the beginning of their establishment, and everyone was full of enthusiasm. When they encountered any difficulties, everyone could work together to solve them together, and finally let the enterprises go through the most dangerous period of the previous two or three years. In order to expand their operations, the company needs to carry out market financing or share reorganization (or it may be that the enterprise needs financing or other circumstances in case of business crisis). At this time, there may be different ideas and disputes among shareholders. At this time, we discovered that when we started a joint venture, we came together only by the friendship between friends and friends and the beautiful yearning for starting a business. At that time, we didn’t mention (or didn’t expect) to sign a partnership agreement and formulate the relevant shareholder advance and retreat mechanism out of consideration of face and kindness. Even the articles of association were only drafted by the agency that assisted the company to register according to the legal norms, so there was not much practical binding effect without considering the actual situation. It is conceivable that this kind of enterprise will eventually have a serious situation. Therefore, at the beginning of starting a business, entrepreneurs must sign a partnership agreement, define the form of shareholders’ participation, the amount of capital contribution, the time limit for funds to be put in place, the proportion of shares, formulate the financial use and supervision mechanism, the shareholder advance and retreat mechanism, the risk control mechanism, and formulate the articles of association according to the actual situation and needs of the company. Familiarity with and application of equity knowledge will make your enterprise bigger and stronger.

organizational structure

The organizational structure is the overall structure of an enterprise, including the shareholders’ meeting, the board of directors, the board of supervisors, the management and the departments, etc. The organizational structure of each enterprise is tailored according to its own needs. It will make the operation of the enterprise more efficient for entrepreneurs to understand and set up the enterprise structure according to the actual needs of the enterprise in the early stage of starting a business.

Strategic Planning

Entrepreneurs should have a clear entrepreneurial direction, always know what they are doing and what they want to do, and formulate a strategic plan for enterprise development for at least one to three years or five years, and formulate short-term and medium-term work objectives and detailed implementation plans according to the enterprise development plan. If an enterprise does not have a practical long-term strategic plan, short-term action goals and implementation plans, it will make enterprise managers run around like headless flies, and the entrepreneurial era of crossing the river by feeling the stones with only a courage and enthusiasm has long since ended. Therefore, in order to succeed in entrepreneurship, enterprises must have clear development plans, goals and implementation rules.

Accounting knowledge

Financial management is an important part of enterprise operation and management, which has certain professionalism. However, as an entrepreneur, co-founder and the highest decision-making core of an enterprise, although you don’t need to master too much professional accounting knowledge, you still need to understand some basic accounting knowledge (such as cash flow statement, income statement, balance sheet and other financial statements). Knowing the actual financial situation of an enterprise at any time can make you more flexible and active in daily decision-making and find professionals who can better meet the needs of the enterprise to serve the enterprise.

Tax knowledge

For enterprises and entrepreneurs (especially entrepreneurs of small and micro enterprises), it is very necessary to know the relevant tax knowledge that is of interest to enterprises. Don’t think that this is just a matter for financial personnel. For hired professional staff, they will only file tax returns according to the process, but not for enterprise decision makers. He can save more funds and ensure the safety of enterprise operation. If the national tax policy can be flexibly grasped and rationally applied, the enterprise can go further and operate more reasonably and legally.

Marketing knowledge

Marketing is one of the skills that entrepreneurs must master. Enterprise product marketing determines the survival time and anti-risk ability of enterprises, and it is also the basis for enterprises to develop. Entrepreneurs must master relevant marketing knowledge and skills, set up marketing teams and train marketing personnel according to the actual situation and development plan of enterprises, fully analyze the market, be familiar with the market, know the customer’s needs, and formulate external marketing plans that highlight product characteristics and meet the company’s interests, market environment and customer’s needs. Formulate the operating norms and learning materials for internal marketers matching the marketing plan, and formulate relevant sales system, commission system, incentive measures, etc.

Logistics knowledge

Modern enterprises will inevitably face a large number of foreign logistics and related goods procurement. The importance of enterprise procurement and logistics management to start-ups is self-evident. Therefore, it is particularly important for entrepreneurs to master the necessary logistics knowledge and procurement knowledge. In the early stage of starting a business, funds are often not abundant, so reasonable procurement and on-demand allocation can alleviate the financial pressure. If you have a certain understanding of logistics enterprises, logistics links, logistics materials and logistics prices, you can make product prices, product packaging, customer commitments and after-sales services.

Computer and network knowledge

Modern enterprise management has been very different from traditional enterprise management. If entrepreneurs or business operators don’t know how to use basic computer and network tools, it is basically impossible to succeed in starting a business (or get twice the result with half the effort), so entrepreneurs must at least master simple computer typing (preferably table making and TTP making), surfing the Internet, sending and receiving emails, QQ, QQ group, WeChat group, Weibo, personal e-banking, WeChat group.

administration management

At the beginning of the business, there are generally not many employees in the company, so the boss (actual controller) is basically in charge of the company’s administrative personnel, or all the so-called offices (relatives or cronies) that have just been established are responsible. This management method is fatal to the enterprise. In the end, if the enterprise can still live, it will basically become a family-owned enterprise. Employees live in the boss’s mood every day, and everyone revolves around the boss. There is no or dare to have independent thinking, and few people are ghosts. Therefore, entrepreneurs must understand the importance of administrative management. No matter how many employees there are, companies must formulate various rules and regulations from the beginning, such as employee discipline, post system, workflow, operational norms, employee incentive system, etc., and strengthen learning and strict implementation, put an end to cronyism and family management, and advocate standardized and institutionalized enterprise construction.

human resources

If an enterprise wants to create a world in competition, talents play a decisive role. How to attract talents, retain talents and make good use of talents is a problem that every entrepreneur and enterprise manager must attach great importance to and think deeply. Many entrepreneurs have been competing with employees since the establishment of the enterprise, complaining that employees are not competent and have poor quality, complaining that talents are difficult to recruit, complaining that employees’ wages are too high to spend, and so on. As a result, there are many ways to default on wages or dismiss employees in various ways and find ways to let employees leave by themselves. As a result, labor relations are tense, employees have no enthusiasm and no sense of belonging, and bosses are busy recruiting and replacing people in batches in complaints, and there are many people who haven’t woken up until the company closes. If an enterprise wants to recruit and retain truly suitable talents, it should strive to create a relaxed, harmonious and harmonious working environment for its employees, formulate a sticky and passionate salary system, performance system, reward mechanism, improve employee welfare and logistics guarantee mechanism, apply for social security and sign a formal employment contract for employees who meet the requirements, etc. The company will manage people with the system, care for them, and retain employees with the working environment and salary and benefits, and employees will naturally repay the enterprise with their work ability and efficiency.

Emotional quotient management

Many times, the entrepreneur’s personal emotional intelligence management, human behavior and emotional control ability determine the ultimate success or failure of the enterprise. Entrepreneurs who are low-key, modest, capable of being a person, have high emotional intelligence, know how to respect others and understand mutual benefit are often popular, cohesive and persuasive, and are like a duck to water in business operations. Entrepreneurs should strengthen the cultivation of personal emotional intelligence and exercise their self-emotional control, understand that harmony makes money, and don’t act on impulse.

honesty and trustworthiness

Honesty and trustworthiness is the basic principle of dealing with people, and it is also the essential factor for entrepreneurs to succeed in starting a business. Only honest and trustworthy people can make real friends. Without friends in business, friends have connections. Connections are the pulse of money, business opportunities and the basis of development and cooperation. Only by adhering to the principle of being honest and trustworthy can we go further. Those century-old shops, famous brands and business giants have all come out in this way.

Focus. Focus.

There are many entrepreneurs who can persist in an industry or enterprise for three years, but few can persist for five, ten or even fifteen years. Entrepreneurs should avoid looking at other mountains while starting a business, trusting or admiring other people’s projects to make more money, and constantly introducing or changing projects will make their business a mess and ruin their original career. For beginners, it is more important to do, love and specialize in one line. Only by concentrating and persisting in doing one thing well can we make some achievements in the field of entrepreneurship we choose.

Time concept

Entrepreneurs should have a strong sense of time, all business operations should be carried out according to the planning and time frame, and they should respect both their own time and others’ time in business contacts. Don’t easily promise time limits for things that are uncertain, but do what they say on time. If they can’t do it, they should communicate with others in advance and provide remedial measures or compensation schemes. Only by being punctual and keeping promises can they get higher benefits and win respect.

social etiquette

For entrepreneurs, it is essential and frequent to participate in various social activities. Accumulating more resources and contacts through social activities will promote personal horizons and increase business opportunities. Before participating in various social activities, you should have a certain understanding and familiarity with some basic social etiquette in the corresponding social scenes (telephone communication, meeting, dining, meeting, gathering, negotiation, activities, etc.). For example, it is best to say your full name when introducing yourself, stand up or smile and nod to others when introducing yourself, don’t cross your legs when sitting, and ask guests to order first when eating. If the guests are not polite, try to order according to everyone’s regional taste (pay the bill in advance as low as possible before the end), avoid packing after meals (except for family dinners), treat people politely and equally regardless of their status, avoid taking photos casually and sending WeChat friends when socializing or dining, don’t pry into other people’s privacy, don’t spread negative news, don’t gossip, don’t drink too much, keep everything in mind when you see through some things, and don’t whisper to others at will to avoid misunderstanding. Don’t care too much about trifles or gossips, learn to be patient and tolerant, be able to bear losses, and don’t haggle over trifles to gain respect and respect from others.

Switching to the business camp, Deep Blue S09 debuted at 350,000, and large-scale hybrids will be listed next year.

Car See Wan Yixun-The domestic large-scale SUV market occupied by M9 and Ideal L9 has now joined the new showstopper. Deep Blue Auto launched a new flagship SUV-Deep Blue S09. The car is expected to be launched in the first half of 2025, with a starting price of about 350,000 yuan. It is based on the brand-new special electric vehicle platform of Chang ‘an, featuring the extended-range hybrid system and Huawei Gankun ADS3.0 intelligent driving system, and has entered the market competition. At the beginning of the appearance of the new car, it even triggered a craze because the ideal party was suspected of plagiarism.

As a large SUV that does not emphasize sports, this deep blue began to focus on business and family camps.

The design of Deep Blue S09 is a long, narrow, simple and large SUV style, which is different from the sports attributes of the previous Deep Blue car. The new car is aimed at the business and home markets. In the front face, the enclosed front grille is rounded, and the upper penetrating light strips are connected with the LED headlight groups on both sides. This layout is similar to the design of some existing models while ensuring a certain degree of recognition, but the internal structural design of the light group and the connection with the surrounding lines have their own characteristics, such as the arrangement of light-emitting units inside the light group and the details of the transition with the edge lines of the front grille. The lower enclosure adopts segmented design and presents N-shaped shape, which increases the sense of layering and movement in vision to a certain extent.

The side of the car body presents a relatively square box outline, which makes the interior space of the car better guaranteed in theory. The ultra-high ground clearance gives the vehicle a certain passability advantage. Its Dover aluminum alloy wheels add some business flavor to the car body, but this style is also common in medium and large SUVs of the same type.

The body size of Deep Blue S09 reaches 5205mm long, 1996mm wide, 1800mm high, and the wheelbase is 3105mm, which creates a spacious space environment for the car. The six-seat layout has certain adaptability for family multi-person travel and business reception scenes. However, when large-size car bodies are driving in cities, especially in narrow streets and areas with tight parking spaces, they will face the problems of inconvenient traffic and difficult parking. Moreover, the actual use efficiency of the interior space, such as the flexibility of seats, the convenience of storage space and the comfort of each seat, needs to be felt and judged by consumers in actual experience, and the absolute advantage of its spatial layout cannot be judged only from the size data.

The Deep Blue Super Extended Range 2.0 technology carried by Deep Blue S09 is equipped with the new Blue Whale HE1.5T ultra-high pressure direct injection hybrid engine, with the maximum power of 110kW. The dual-motor four-wheel drive system makes the total motor power reach 362kW, and the pure battery life is available in 170km and 180km versions. It shows certain competitiveness in power data, and the pure battery life can meet daily short-distance travel when commuting in cities, reducing fuel consumption and exhaust emissions. When driving long distances, the extended range system can alleviate endurance anxiety. However, in the field of hybrid technology, compared with some mature brands, more practical driving tests and market feedback are needed to verify the ride comfort, energy consumption optimization under different working conditions and the reliability of long-term use. For example, noise control after engine intervention at high speed, smoothness of power connection and fluctuation of fuel consumption under comprehensive road conditions are all important factors to measure the quality of its power system.

In terms of intelligent configuration, Deep Blue S09 is equipped with a multi-sensor system composed of laser radar, millimeter wave radar, panoramic camera and ultrasonic radar, which can theoretically provide multi-directional guarantee for driving safety. If Huawei Gankun intelligent driving system can be equipped, it will have high intelligent driving potential. For example, the high-speed automatic driving assistance function can reduce the fatigue of long-distance driving, and the urban intelligent driving function can help to cope with complex road conditions, but the intelligent driving system has not yet been determined.

Deep Blue S09 is priced at 350,000 yuan, facing the competition in the high-end new energy SUV market. In Changan Deep Blue brand, Deep Blue S07 has a certain market sales base, which provides some brand and market experience support for Deep Blue S09. Deep Blue S09 is the main price advantage in the competition with the M9 and ideal L9 models, but after bidding farewell to the sports camp, it seems that Deep Blue S09 has no unique and special brand imprint, and the models lack bright spots and differentiation. Ask the world to focus on the cockpit and intelligent driving, and ideally focus on the back row and family. What kind of housekeeping skills does S09 have? More car news needs to be released. If Deep Blue S09 wants to break through, it must accurately tap the differentiated selling points of its own products, such as in-depth development and optimization of intelligent driving function, balanced innovation of power system and energy consumption management, flexibility and comfort improvement of interior space, and at the same time, strengthen brand promotion and customer service system construction, and enhance consumers’ sense of identity and belonging to Deep Blue brand, so as to gain a place in the highly competitive high-end new energy SUV market.

National Wushu: Originating from the Nation Going to the World

  Xinhua News Agency, Sanya, November 25th (Reporter Geng Huihuang, Zhou Xin) On the 25th, the national Wushu event of the 12th National Traditional Minority Sports Meeting (hereinafter referred to as the "Games") will end in the gymnasium of Sanya University. Bagua Palm, Tongbi Boxing, Elephant Boxing, Taiji Sword, Shuangjian, Shuang Bian, the boxing equipment has its own characteristics, and the national culture has its own style.

  Wushu originated in China, and after a long historical evolution, it has developed into many different styles of boxing, each of which includes the techniques, theories and methods of attack and defense fighting with bare hands and equipment. Traditional Wushu is the root of Wushu, which has evolved and passed down from generation to generation, resulting in many schools, boxing types and categories.

  In 1991, the fourth sports meeting listed national Wushu as a competition for the first time. The national Wushu events of this Games include traditional boxing, traditional instruments and duet, which are divided into men’s group and women’s group.

  Li Yingkui, the referee of the national Wushu project, said that 253 contestants from all over the country were outstanding boxing representatives from all regions, ethnic groups and schools.

  The red headrope was tied, and the phoenix was flying in black. In the women’s traditional first-class boxing final held on the afternoon of 24th, Duan Jing, a player of Yunnan team, had a set of bagua palm, which was rigid, flexible, quick and slow, and connected in style.

  Duan Jing introduced that this set of Eight Diagrams Palm combines the Eight Diagrams Chain Palm and the Eight Diagrams Lion Palm created by Sha Guozheng, a Yunnan martial artist. Starting from the characteristics of various types of martial arts, the exercise method of the movements is appropriately exaggerated, which increases the difficulty of the exercise and also enhances the appreciation.

  Duan Jing is from Kunming, Yunnan Province. She is 8 years old and 35 years old. She has participated in many competitions and won the championship in the 14th World Wushu Championships held in 2017. This is the first time that she has stood on the national traditional sports meeting of ethnic minorities. Here, she met her teammates who had trained together, exchanged information about her participation in martial arts events and activities in recent years, made new friends, and introduced her boxing skills and shared her practice experience with martial arts inheritors and fans from all over the world.

  "National martial arts and competitive martial arts are in harmony. Competitive Wushu has increased the difficulty of exercise in the form of expression, improved in speed, strength and range, and is highly ornamental. National Wushu puts more emphasis on the use of attack and skill in action drills. Although there are various kinds of boxing and equipment, each event is the core content of Chinese Wushu, such as kicking, hitting, falling, jumping, rolling and turning. Here I see the unique techniques displayed by everyone, which is a good platform for communication, exchange and integration. " Duan Jing said.

  Wushu, with its distinctive characteristics of attack and defense and profound cultural connotation, is deeply loved by people all over the world and has now developed into a global sport. The International Wushu Federation was established on October 3, 1990, and currently has 160 member associations spread across five continents. On January 8, 2020, with the approval of the International Olympic Committee, Wushu became the official event of the 2026 Youth Olympic Games, which was the first time that Wushu became the official event of the Olympic Games.

  At this sports meeting, the athletes showed their talents and the audience feasted their eyes. Li Xiangchun, a tourist from Guiyang, Guizhou, took his mother and daughter to the stands to give shouts and applause to the players, and at the same time, he repeatedly expressed his amazement. "We saw the Monkey King’s golden hoop dance, Guan Yu’s broadsword playing, drunken boxing, and the unique costumes and equipment of various ethnic groups. It was a special surprise. The national martial arts was really profound."

  Li Yingkui said that national Wushu shows national culture and regional characteristics, and the display of martial arts in various places and nationalities on the field is conducive to promoting the development of national Wushu projects in the future. Li Yingkui also expects that more traditional boxing techniques and instruments can be scientifically and systematically excavated, sorted out and protected, and displayed with the help of the platform of the Games.
