1306 learnersReview
From a mechanical engineering student who delved into Western philosophy before embracing Eastern thought in mid-life, Ji Qi shares a profound fusion of cross-cultural wisdom, hard-won entrepreneurial insights, and intimate life reflections in *The Realm of the Heart*. Tracking his journey founding three publicly traded giants—Ctrip, Home Inns, and H World Group—he unpacks the core logic of building scalable, resilient businesses, from navigating market gaps to balancing speed and strength. Beyond boardrooms, he bridges scientific principles (from relativity to entropy) with philosophical ideas (Buddhism, Taoism, Western existentialism) to explore life’s deepest questions: the interconnectedness of all beings, the illusion of time, and the pursuit of a peaceful, purposeful existence. Blending practical business strategies with spiritual introspection, this book offers a unique lens for anyone seeking to align professional success with personal fulfillment.
