Inspiring story of Soichiro Honda, Honda's Founding Fathers Kingdom

When Soichiro Honda's pioneering business are doomed to failure. He had fallen ill, ran out of money, expelled from college. But he dreamed and dreamed trus ... Try to observe a vehicle that crossed the highway. Sure, your eyes are always hit on a Honda, either a car or motorcycle.
Brands vehicle traffic is dense crowd, so it is worth dubbed the "king of the streets". However, did you ever know, the founder of the "kingdom" Honda - Soichiro Honda - doomed to failure.
He also holds an engineering degree, the more so as does Professor BJ Habibie, former President of Indonesia. He was not a brilliant student who has a brain. In class, his seat was never in front, always away from the teacher's views. "Bad grades in school. 


But I'm not sad, because my world around machinery, motorcycles and bicycles, "said this man, who died at the age of 84 years, after being treated at Juntendo Hospital, Tokyo, due to mengindap lever.
His love for the machine, may be 'inherited' from his father who opened the farm repair shops, in the hamlet Kamyo, Shizuko district, central Japan, the birthplace of Soichiro Honda.
In the garage, his father gave cathut (older brother) to take his nails. He also often played in place of rice mill saw diesel engine into the motor penggeraknya.Di there, the man born 17 November 1906, it can remain silent for hours.
At the age of 8 years, he pedaled 10 miles, just want to watch airplanes. Apparently, his interest in the machine, not in vain. When he was 12 years, Honda managed to create a model bicycle pancal with foot brakes. But, his mind does not dream of becoming the automotive business travelers. He realized from poor families. Moreover, physically weak, not handsome, so that makes it inferior.
At the age of 15 years, Honda moved to Japan, working Hart Shokai Company. His boss, Saka Kibara, very happy to see how it works. Honda's thorough and workmanlike in the matter of the machine. Every sound suspicious, any oil that leaked, did not escape his attention. Six years of working there, adding to his insight about the machinery. Finally, at the age of 21 years, his boss suggested opening a branch office in Hamamatsu. This offer is not ditampiknya.

Hamamatsu keep improving his performance. He has always denied receiving reparations by another repair shop. It works too fast to fix the car so that customers running again. Therefore, the working hours late into the night, and sometimes until dawn. Remain creative genius brain. In those days, the radius of a car made of wood, not good to dampen the shock. He had an idea to replace it with a trellis, metal trellis. The results are extraordinary. Metal trellis trellis-seller, and exported around the world. At age 30, Honda signed the first patent.
After creating a trellis, Honda wanted to break away from his boss, make your own garage business. He started thinking, what is selected specialist? His brain is drawn to making Pinston Ring, which is produced by his own workshop in 1938. Unfortunately, his work was rejected by the Toyota, because they do not meet the standards. Homemade ring is not flexible, and will not sell. He remembered his friends reaction to that failure. They deplored himself out of the garage.
Because of that failure, the Honda is quite seriously ill. Two months later, his health restored. He returned to lead his workshop. But, about the Ring Pinston it, yet also has a solution. To find the answer, he went back to school to increase his knowledge of the machine. During the day, after returning college - early morning, he went straight to the shop, practice the newly acquired knowledge. After two years as a student, he was eventually released because rarely attend college.
"I feel like dying, because when the hungry are not fed, but crammed with long-winded explanation of food law and its influence," said Honda, who infatuated car racing. To the Rector, he explained meant not seeking college diploma. But knowledge. This explanation is regarded as an insult.
Thanks to his hard work, Pinston Ring design is accepted. Toyota-party contracting, so that Honda intends to set up factories. Eh unfortunately, has failed intentions. Japan, as ready for war, did not provide funding. He was not desperate to raise capital from a group of people to set up factories. Again, the disaster came. After the war broke out, the factory burned twice.
However, Honda is not discouraged. He rushed to collect their employees. They were ordered to take the rest of benzene cans discarded by the United States ship, used as a factory set up. Unexpectedly, the earthquake broke out destroying the factory, so it was decided to sell the plant to the Toyota Pinstonnya Ring. After that, Honda tried some other ventures. Unfortunately all of them failed. Finally, in 1947, after the Japanese war shortage of gasoline. Here the Japanese economy in ruins. To the extent that Honda can not sell his car to buy food for his family.
Honda Engine Design
In circumstances of urgency, he installed a small motor on the bike. Who would have thought, "motorcycle" - forerunner to the birth of Honda cars - were enthused by the neighbors. They flocked to order, so the Honda out of stock. This is where, re-established the Honda motorcycle factory. Since then, success is never out of hand. The following Honda Motor mobinya, became "king" of the streets of the world, including Indonesia.
For Honda, do not see success in the automotive industry wrestle. But look at the failures they experienced. "People see my success is only one percent. But, they do not see 99% of my failures," he said. He gives advice when you experience failure, which began to dream, dream mimpikanlah new.
