On July 7th, Haidilao International Holdings Co., Ltd. released the overall business report for the first half of the year, which showed that by June 31th, 2121, the overall income of the Group had decreased by about 21% compared with the same period last year, and the net loss had reached as much as 911 million RMB. Haidilao officially stated that the operating losses generated by its company were mainly related to the epidemic situation prevailing in the whole country in the first half of this year. At the same time, because the national epidemic has been significantly controlled, its turnover is gradually picking up. Although Haidilao incurred huge losses in the first half of the year, the leadership and relevant shareholders have great confidence in the prospects of Haidilao. This can't help but make people interested. What is the background of its founder? So that it can still maintain the normal operation of the whole group under the condition of bearing as much as 911 million losses.

Haidilao, founded in 1994, is a catering service organization mainly focusing on Sichuan-style hot pot. Its founder is Zhang Yong and his nationality is Singaporean.

Zhang Yong was born in Sichuan and graduated from cheung kong graduate school of business. He entered jianyang city Air Separation Technical School after graduating from middle school. After graduating from technical school, I entered the relevant tractor factory and worked as a technician in the tractor factory for 6 years. According to relevant insiders, Zhang Yong is a highly motivated, knowledgeable and ambitious person. During the work of other tractor factories, they often visit all parts of the country during holidays to conduct relevant research. The idea of doing business and planning to be in a catering service organization was formed long before the establishment of Haidilao. When the time was ripe, Zhang Yong got enough financial support, and successfully established the 1 th Haidilao in 1994, which developed rapidly. Since the beginning of this year, Haidilao has 91 branches all over the country, and it can maintain the growth rate of 4-5 branches every year for continuous growth.

From the excavation of relevant background, it is not difficult to see that Zhang Yong does not have a very high academic record and a good family background. To achieve such a good achievement, on the one hand, depends on outstanding talent and insight, on the other hand, it is also inseparable from the emergence and collision of related opportunities. At the same time, its flexible business mind and brave ability to act have also prompted it to develop Haidilao into one of the top ten innovative enterprises in China. The development of Haidilao is inseparable from Zhang Yong, and we also believe that under the leadership of Zhang Yong, Haidilao will get longer and bigger.
