Features: The ability to make investment decisions is a crucial capability for top-level business managers. Therefore, as a business management graduate program (MBA) that primarily aims to cultivate top-level business management talent, MBA programs worldwide almost universally include Investment as an important course in their curriculum. Investment itself is an interdisciplinary science, which can be divided into fundamental investment theory, financial and securities investment, and investment project operations management (some universities may set it as "technological entrepreneurship" or "entrepreneurship" based on teaching realities and market needs, but essentially, these are all theory and theoretical systems established around the operation of business projects). Investment project operations management can also be called investment project planning and operation, and it is the most important discipline in investment science, as well as an interdisciplinary field, representing a brand-new topic. In the past, investment science did not include this, but I proposed it as a new discipline after long-term theoretical reflection on the practice of the investment field. I strive to combine investment theories from both domestic and international sources, planning and operations management theories, and the investment practices of entrepreneurs, integrating my own insights to make it more universally applicable and reveal general principles. I hope to systematically and vividly elaborate on the theory of investment project planning and operation from a new perspective, new ways of thinking, and even new modes of expression, making this theory more systematic, comprehensive, closely tied to practice, and highly scientific, standardized, operational, and practical.
In the past five years of MBA teaching practice, economists, professors, and many entrepreneurs from the economic field have provided invaluable assistance to my course, offering many good suggestions and compelling case studies, which have helped to continuously refine the course. It can be said that this theory is the result of a collective effort. Failure is the mother of success. This book analyzes some unsuccessful planning and operations, and I express my admiration and gratitude to these planners and operators. Their brilliant ideas, bold courage in practice, and lessons learned through spending money have become a valuable asset for humanity, offering great help and profound inspiration to those who come after them. The book includes a substantial number of cases to deepen the understanding of the theory. Some of these cases have stood the test of time and continue to shine with wisdom, remaining included in the book, while others have lost their guiding significance due to obsolescence and have been removed.，，。 Visual representation is not only a powerful planning tool but also an emerging trend of the future. To this end, the author has personally drawn and annotated charts, on one hand, to help readers more vividly grasp the ideas expressed in the book, and on the other hand, to demonstrate the effectiveness of visual representation. These charts are used to help readers quickly establish basic concepts of capital operations and investment planning, to show the methods and steps of investment planning, and some charts reveal the author's perspectives and approaches in thinking, analyzing, judging, and making choices, for reference and application by readers.
