Summary

In the 30 years since Huawei was founded, Ren Zhengfei has focused on doing just one thing: answering, through action, the question of how to survive and what the reasons and values of survival are. Over those 30 years, Huawei has stumbled and struggled through arduous exploration and practice, gradually forming a complete set of standardized, effective management rules. These rules have shaped the genes of hard struggle and the enterprising style of Huawei people. Huawei advances with the times, and its internal spirit is worth studying in depth. This book offers a comprehensive, systematic interpretation of Huawei's discipline, its taboos, and the code of conduct of Huawei people. Organized from values to methodology, it details the secrets of how Huawei people learn, work, and succeed. The content is systematic and thorough, deep yet accessible, with careful analysis, combining theoretical depth with practical insight. For anyone committed to pursuing efficient management, or anyone seeking to study Huawei in depth, this book has high research and reference value. We believe you will find in Huawei's rules the factors that drive sustained corporate development and continuous personal growth.

Editor's review

Published by Beijing United Publishing Company, ISBN 9787559604989, The Rules of Behavior is a social science title. Author Xing Bo has long followed the field of social behavior studies, and his books often explore the psychological mechanisms behind modern behavior patterns in an accessible way. Based on information available online, this book focuses on analyzing the causes and evolution of norms of individual and group behavior in contemporary society. Xing Bo excels at starting from everyday scenarios—social media interaction, workplace etiquette, consumer decisions—and using behavioral economics and social psychology to deconstruct how seemingly natural "rules" are shaped and influence our choices. The author proposes a core perspective: many behavioral norms are not inherently reasonable but are products of historical accumulation, power structures, and group pressure. This inquiry into the origins of norms lets readers re-examine their own behavior and consider the balance between compliance and transgression. The book's value lies not only in offering an analytical framework but also in inviting readers into a reflection on "freedom and constraint"—in an increasingly complex modern society, understanding the underlying logic of behavioral rules may be key to preserving individual independence while adapting socially.

Who it's for

A good fit for

  • Introductory readers interested in social psychology and behavioral economics
  • Thinkers who want to understand the logic behind everyday rules
  • Professionals working in interpersonal communication or management
  • Observers curious about patterns of group behavior in modern society

Not a good fit for

  • Readers expecting concrete behavioral guidelines or immediate practical methods

Reading tips

  1. Start with the life scenarios you know best, reflecting as you read on habits you take for granted
  2. Compare and analyze the book's ideas against real cases from work or social life
  3. Don't rush to finish; allow time after each chapter to digest the concepts

About the author

邢柏 Author

Xing Bo is a writer whose limited public information restricts a fuller profile; his works focus mainly on management and corporate culture, with some forays into history. Judging from the three titles listed here, he is concerned with how organizations operate and how people are shaped. The Key Minority: Ren Zhengfei on Cultivating Cadres, together with its hardcover collector's edition, centers on Ren Zhengfei's remarks about selecting and training cadres and sorts through his management thinking, while The Rules of Behavior turns to questions of conduct and order. His writing usually starts from specific figures' statements or codes of conduct, in plain language aimed at general readers rather than specialists. Because details of his life and professional background have not been disclosed, readers can know him mainly through the books themselves, which makes his works read more as topic-driven titles than as a portrait of the author.
