BINOD CHAUDHARY: AATMA KATHA / विनोद चौधरी : आत्मकथा
BINOD CHAUDHARY: AATMA KATHA
एसएलसीमा बोर्ड पाँचौ भएका विनोद चौधरीले पारिवारिक कपडा व्यापारको घेराबाट बढेर डिस्को खोले । एल्बम निकाले । फिल्म बनाए । वाइवाइ उत्पादन थाले । उनको चौधरी ग्रुप अहिले बैँक, बिमा, फाइनाँस र हाउजिङदेखि सफ्ट डिङ्क, बियर, चुरोट, खाद्यवस्तु र इलेक्ट्रोनिक सामग्री उत्पादनसम्म फैलिएको छ । उनले निजी क्षेत्रको पहिलो औद्योगिक पार्क “ गंगादेवी चौधरी उद्योग ग्राम” स्थापना गरेका छन् । चौधरीले विदेशीसँगको साझेदारीमा दक्षिण तथा दक्षिणपूर्वी एसिया र मध्यपूर्वी होटल, रियलस्टेट र उत्पादनमुलक क्षेत्रमा लगानी गरेका छन् । भारतको ताज ग्रुप र थाइल्यान्डको इनभिजनसँग संयुक्त लगानी गरेको छन् । शाही परिवार, प्रधानमन्त्री तथा नेताहरुदेखि प्रभावशाली विदेशी व्यावसायिकहरुसम्मको उनको नालीबेली सम्बन्ध चाखलाग्दो छ । यो आत्मकथा विनोद चौधरी सँगसँगै नेपालको अग्रणी व्यापारिक घराना चौधरी ग्रुपको आरोह-अवरोहको गाथा हो ।
'विनोद, मैले एपोलो स्टिलको सेयर गोल्छालाई दिने निर्णय गरेँ ।’
'सरकार, यस्तो कसरी गर्न सकिबक्सिन्छ ?’
'किन सक्दिनँ ?’ अधिराजकुमारी प्रेक्षाले हकार्नुभयो ।
'यो उद्योगमा मेरो ५१ प्रतिशत सेयर छ, धीरेन्द्र सरकारले देखाइबक्सेको सदासयका कारण ४८ प्रतिशत सेयर दिएको हुँ मौसुफ कसरी एकैचोटि जसलाई पायो त्यसलाई सामेल गराउन सकिबक्सिन्छ ?’
'हृवाट !’ उहाँले झोक्किँदै भन्नुभयो, 'सो यु आर गोइङ टु डिसओबे माई अर्डर ?’
'म चाहेर पनि मौसुफको आदेश पालना गर्न सक्दिनँ सरकार ।’
'हृवाट डु यु मिन ?’
'मैले यो उद्योग चलाउन बैँकबाट ऋण लिएको छु । बैँकले मेरै नाममा ऋण दिएको छ ।’
'सो हृवाट !’ उहाले अनुहार रातो पार्नुभयो ।
बुवा तर्सिनुभएछ । हात समातेर मलाई रोक्न खोज्नुभयो । म रोकिइनँ ।

interesting tale of a Nepali billionaire. How he achieved smartly and legally when the laws of the land acted as a barrier to move forward. It teaches me to continue working harder, no matter what.

समग्रमा किताब राम्रो छ । एक फरक विषय बोकेको छ । साहित्यिक, राजनैतिक र सामाजिक व्यक्तित्वहरुका जीवनकथा पढिराखेकाहरुका लागि यो एक फरक स्वादको बनेको छ । विनोद चौधरीको आफ्नै संसार छ, जुन हामी आम नेपालीको वास्तविकताको धरातल बाट धेरै पर छ ।
व्यक्तिका अन्तरहृदयका सुख-दुख का घटना भन्दा पनि व्यवसायिक कुटनीतिका कथाहरु नै बढी भए पनि पढ्दै जाँदा एक फरक बाटो र फरक संसारको कथाले एक फरक अनुभूति भने पक्कै दिन्छ ।

Overally I liked this book, except part related to political issues.
Binod Chaudhary has done lot of works. as explained in the box he is adding bricks one after another to build Chaudhary empire.
Wai wai has been a great sucess. It feels proud when foreigner shows wai wai and says It from Nepal, Chatti chauda hunxa.
For me The most interesting part:
When Binod Chaudhary sees wai wai cartoon with nepali workers in dubai & explain how happy, excited he was, I found myself into same feeling while reading, This part is well return foe emotion capturing.

"Manifest your dream life, not just with your thoughts and prayers but with your Actions." - @BinodKChaudhary

What a smart and daring person he is. My admiration for him has gone real high. An ordinary boy who made himself a Billionaire using his inner ability which remains hidden in most of the ordinary people.

The book especially has been able to explain the ups and downs of the entrepreneurial journey of Mr. Binod Chaudhary and his CG group. It was extremely helpful for me as I have developed my interest in these sectors recently. Considering the political instability and thinking about driving the country for economic prosperity isn't child's play. It takes lots of dedication and set up from the failures to rise high.
The basic lesson I learned from the book is that it takes time to reach a successful level. While reading the book, I felt that to carve a successful journey, we need to have a connection with higher authorities. Had some royal members and some international figures not come to the rescue, he might not have achieved the greater height.
From a business perspective, it can be seen that he has diversified his business into different sectors. Some of these include hotels and resorts along with joint ventures with Taj groups, CG foods, Nabil bank, real estate in Dubai, biscuit factory, and so on. When there was cutthroat competition with wai wai, the CG group was able to apply proper strategy due to which they have loyal customers till now.
The book totally changed my perspective about Binod Chaudhary. Earlier he was just a billionaire in my mind, now more than a philanthropist, a political visionary, and a proud Nepali. Even what astonished me is that some of his childhood were resonating with my childhood activities such as rolling tires. I was surprised that he the billionaire had also lived a normal life. The book gave me so insightful lessons from his frank writings that it evoked me to follow his path. It is a story like his that inspires our youth and think about the economic development of the country.
The best and enthusiastic mind deserves the book!!

According to me the author wants to teach us to be thankful and loyal towards any job we are envolved in. And we should always be strict towards our any decision since the decision is decided just once. And a real player do not decides twice or change its decision. Yah but the first and final decision must be made with full concentration. One should not get frightened whether it is death Infront of him asking to change his decision.

Author talks about all the businesses he established. This book will help your realize that it's possible to do so many things in one life time. Although he sometimes talks about his thinking process, what he things about what he does etc etc mostly he only talks about what he has done. This might be a really good book for businessman to keep themselves motivated in whatever they are doing.

एउटा विनोद हुर्कदै बनिया (व्यापारी) हुँदै व्यापारिक घरानाको उद्योगपति कसरी भएँ, के के गर्नुपर्यो, उनको कुशलता अनि चातुर्यता, विचार अनि मान्यताको वृत्तान्त छ यस आत्मकथामा । नव पिढी ले धेरै सिक्न सक्ने ज्ञान
पनि भरपूर छ!

An autobiography is never limited to the life of an individual. I did learn a lot of the times in which Mr. Chaudhary earned his fortunes in Nepal.

Book shows the history , shows the experience , shows the mind and answers the policies for new entrepreneur. it would have been a five star for me if the book discussed about Basanta and Arun Choudhary and their contribution too.
