This is a history of entrepreneurship in the Tang Dynasty that will make you laugh until you hit the table and learn to stamp your feet!
See how Li Yuan was forced to start a business as a "worker in the Sui Dynasty" and started the "Datang Group" with his three sons;
Look at Li Shimin's transformation from "Military Vice President" to "Zhenguan CEO", and he completed a counterattack in the workplace by relying on the Xuanwu Gate incident;
Wu Zetian was even more outrageous. From "harem intern" to cheating all the way, she directly changed the company's name to "Da Zhou";
In his early years, Li Longji carried out the "Kaiyuan Reform" and his performance exploded. In his later years, he became obsessed with "KPI" and almost bankrupted the company...
Here are the most popular workplace slangs: Fanzhen means "the local branch is fighting for independence", eunuch monopoly means "the logistics manager is evading the boss", and the Anshi Rebellion means "the regional manager suddenly jumped ship and rebelled";
Here are the funniest historical scenes: An Lushan's 300-pound Hu Xuan Dance to flatter his boss, Yang Guifei Ma Weipo was forced to "optimize layoffs", and Huang Chao wrote "The City is Full of Golden Armors" after losing the job to engage in entrepreneurial financing.
From the grass-roots group that launched an army in Taiyuan, to the listed company that proclaimed itself emperor in Chang'an, and then to the edge of bankruptcy in the separatist vassal towns - the 289 years of the Tang Dynasty are a living "survival guide for startups."
Open this book and see how Datang dealt with a good hand of cards and how it managed to hold on in a desperate situation.
Finally, I discovered: It turns out that history is more exciting than workplace drama!
