一个专注于阳刚的汽车工业,一个致力于精致的时尚社区,看似大相径庭的创业项目,为何在他们的手中却发展地相得益彰,互为支持?
创业夫妻首次同台,与大众分享他们的创业故事!
One would be inclined to think that the nature of the two companies founded by both are from two completely different worlds. One is in a traditionally masculine-dominated car industry while the other isin a traditionally female-dominated fashion / lifestyle industry.But why is it that the two founders managed to run these two completely contrasting businesses and achieve success in expanding them rapidly? What is the secret to them being able to so concurrently?
We areveryprivilegedto welcomethis power couple to share with us their stories on the daily grind of their entrepreneurship journey!
创业公司中的夫妻档向来不少,百度的李彦宏和马东敏,当当的李国庆和俞渝。他们都是夫妻同力,一同参与同一家企业的经营。而这对夫妻却互不干涉,先后在不同的领域开始创业。李斌的蔚来汽车已经成为汽车行业的独角兽企业,王屹芝的光芒APP也正逐渐崭露头角。
It is not often that we hear of stories where two individuals are not just romantic partners but also founders of their own company. Of course, such stories are not impossible but just hard to come by. To name a few, we have Robin Li and Melissa Ma (Baidu) as well as Guoqing Li and Yu Yu (Dang Dang Web). However, the power couple that we are going to be introducing today are unique in the sense thatthey are both founders but coming from different backgrounds and two completely different startups.And this has worked well for both of them. Bin Li’s NIO has already achieved the status of a unicorn start-up while Natalie Wang’s Glamor App is slowly but surely gaining currency among more and more users.
细观二人的创业路径不难发现,虽然二人互不干预,但是在彼此的创业途中,总少不了对方的影子。
蔚来汽车融资,王屹芝是李斌的天使投资人;光芒APP融资,李斌成为了王屹芝的天使投资人。
Despite the fact that both of them try to maintain a distance from each other when it comes to their entrepreneurship ambitions, it is not hard to tell that both of them still cast a certain shadow of influence on each other.
For instance, Natalie is an angel investor to NIO while Bin Li is also an angel investor to Glamor APP.
李斌作为连续创业者,在大学期间就创办了中国最早的互联网公司之一南极科技。1997年李斌又参与创办了科文书业(当当网前身)。围绕互联网和汽车行业,李斌至今参与创办及主导投资了超过40家企业。
李斌的创业之路也并非一帆风顺,2001年底李斌联合创办的易车出现危机,欠债几百万,直到2003年,易车在李斌的带领下起死回生。
2014年,李斌创办蔚来汽车,经过三年发展,成为独角兽企业!
Judging from his entrepreneurship endeavors which dates even far back to when he was still in University, we cannot help but come to a chorus that Bin Li is indeed an avid entrepreneur. While still a university student, Bin Li dipped his toes into the entrepreneurship pool by establishing one of China’s earliest internet company. In the year of 1997, Bin Li once again founded another company Ke Wen Shu Ye, the predecessor of Dang Dang Web. Mainly focusing on Internet Technology and the automobile industry, Bin Li has taken part in over 40 entrepreneurship endeavors ranging from establishing his own company to investing.
Of course, Bin Li’s entrepreneurship journey was not all smooth. There were times where he too had to face with immense challenges and even to the extent whereby the survival of his company was at question. For instance, in the year 2001, one of Bin Li’s automobile company was in debt of a few millions. It was through Bin Li’s hard work and strong leadership that the company managed to be revived in the Year 2003.
And in the year 2014, Bin Li’s Nio Smart Automobile company earned the status of a unicorn start-up within just three years of establishment. What an amazing feat!
而王屹芝走的是另一种截然不同的路,王屹芝是女性纪实访谈节目《不止于她》主持人,原中央电视台英语新闻频道(CCTV-News)主持人,曾主持《链接天下》、《对话》等栏目。从G20到两会,从互联网发展到“神舟”上天,她专注的领域包括时政、科技、环保和公益。采访对象从各国政要、商界精英,到自闭症儿童、贫困农民工。
2018年初,王屹芝离开央视,创办开果科技。同年开果科技与腾讯新闻联合出品了女性人物纪实节目《不止于她》,第一季拍摄了杨幂、文雅丽、胡静、晚晚等焦点女性,在腾讯视频上创造了8000万收看。
2019年1月底,开果科技独立研发运营并上线了中高端女性垂直时尚社区“光芒”App。
On the other hand, Natalie charted a completely different path of her own. She is a CCTV-News News Anchor and host of a great variety of popular Chinese talk shows. She has been actively involved in many fields ranging from Internet business expansion, the Shenzhou spaceflight initiative by China, environmental issues and many more. Because of her job scope, Natalie was able to accumulate a wide range of experiences under her belt. She has interacted and even interviewed people from all walks of life. They include important government personnel, successful businessmen as well as people from the lower spectrum of society like children suffering from Autism or poor farmers.
However, Natalie has since left the Media industry in the early year of 2018 and established her own technology company, named Cogo Technology. In the same year, her company partnered with Tencent News to launch a documentary detailing the life stories of inspirational females. The first season featured popular actresses Yang Mi, Wen Yali, Hu Jing, Wan Wan and many more talented females. The documentary garnered an impressive number of 80 million viewers.
At the end of January in the year of 2019, COGO Technology rolled out their Glamor App which was made available for downloads in App stores.
科技向善,绝不仅仅是口头上的噱头。蔚来汽车的创立,恰恰是来源于李斌对环境污染的深思。
2014年2月24日,李斌在家阳台拍摄了一张天空照片并给自己写了一封信,照片中的天空灰蒙蒙的一片,全是雾霾。
"Tech for Good"is not just an advertising jingle but something taken seriously. In fact, the inspiration for NIO came from Bin Li’s genuine concerns for the environment.
On the fateful day of 24th February 2014, Bin Li was at the balcony of his home when he noticed the gloomy haze in the sky. The scene impacted him so much that he took a photo and wrote himself a letter.
“汽车突破对空间的限制,意味着自由和美好,但是拥堵、环境污染等问题,是不是离这个目标有点远了?我告诉自己要付诸行动了,现在我经常还会去看那封信,这就是我创办蔚来的初心。”
“The invention of automobile has broken limits that were once thought impossible by humans. They signify a positive change for mankind, bringing about greater freedom for everyone but at what cost? Unfortunately, all of these came at the cost of road traffic congestion and environmental pollution. Is this really what we want for our earth? I thought hard about this matter and made a resolution that I must take the initiative to do something about this. Every now and then, I will take out the letter I wrote myself on that fateful day to remind myself of my dedication to saving our environment and to this day it has formed the core and heart of Nio Smart Automobility Company”

“光芒”APP也不仅仅是一个时装、美妆分享社区。王屹芝作为主持人,对人的内在、心灵十分敏锐,这也使得“光芒”APP在分享全球时尚趋势、美妆指南同时,更关注用户的成长、梦想与心灵的故事。
