Chapter Eighty-Five: The Story of the Bicycle

The unveiling ceremony of the Young Entrepreneurs Association of Beijing University was held today.

Zhang Yida was also invited to attend the ribbon-cutting ceremony, and also mentioned a certificate of honor for the vice president unit of the association, which cost 100,000 yuan.

He was going to be elected president, but he didn't agree, thinking that there were enough things to do, and he didn't want to be distracted anymore, and his age and seniority were not good.

Therefore, the chairman of the 200,000 yuan membership fee was given to the senior brother, Tang Lin, CEO of Yiyin Loan.

There are more than 10 companies in other vice president units, such as Everyone Letter, Beautiful Words, Pea Tip, Honey Baby, and Da Hook Network. Each family is also a membership fee of 100,000 yuan.

In addition, there are more than 30 governing units, all of which are medium-sized enterprises that have obtained financing, and each has a membership fee of 50,000 yuan.

The most are ordinary member units, there are more than 100 of them, all of whom are entrepreneurs from Beijing University, and the scale of the enterprises is a little smaller, and each company charges a membership fee of 10,000 yuan.

According to the last statistics, there are 162 member units with membership fees of 4.68 million yuan.

Tang Lin, as the president, spoke in the conference room of the hotel, saying:

"Today, 162 of our companies have established the Jingda Youth Enterprise Association here. In the days to come, I hope that all entrepreneurs, brothers, sisters and sisters will help each other......

In addition, the association is divided into two parts for the membership fee.

First of all, the association will rent a 200-square-meter office in Zhongguancun as the association's station.

Then hire 3-5 people to take care of the affairs of the association, coordinate the resources of various enterprises of the association, and strive to share resources and win-win cooperation.

In addition, the remaining membership fee will be added to the association's "Business Assistance Fund".

Later, if a member company encounters difficulties, it can apply for assistance from the aid fund......

All the above accounts will be published, and the financial statements will be sent to the mailbox of each member company every quarter.

All the operating processes of the association are open and transparent......"

After Tang Lin finished speaking, the audience applauded. These operating rules were also added by everyone one by one after a lot of discussion.

According to everyone's meaning: since we want to do this association, we must do it well. It can't be superficial, it's just a formality.

It is necessary to help every enterprise in a real way, so that every enterprise can gain something in this association.

Only in this way can the association operate more robustly and for a longer time.

Tang Lin's speech is more dogmatic, and the content of his speech is also the rules and regulations of the association, and the obligations and responsibilities of members.

When it was Zhang Yida's turn to take the stage to speak, the content was relatively free and allowed to be played.

Zhang Yida came to the stage and first greeted everyone in the audience: "Senior brother and sister, hello!"

There is nothing wrong with this, and there is indeed no junior brother and sister here, and it will take two months to September before he can be promoted to senior brother.

Zhang Yida went on to say:

"I didn't start my business for a long time, so I won't talk to you about management and strategy, and it would be too classy.

I've been working on a poverty alleviation loan project recently, and I'm going to tell you about that. ”

Then Zhang Yida told everyone about the Grameen model and the loans for agriculture, rural areas, and rural areas. We call on enterprises with such resources to expand their rural business and drive farmers to become rich.

For example, in rural areas to build raw material processing plants, rural e-commerce, agricultural product procurement, planting bases, breeding bases and other things related to rural development.

Some entrepreneurs in the audience have some intentions and are ready to contact Zhang Yida after the meeting, and the rural business is still related to their company.

Then more than a dozen vice presidents such as Yang Yihu, Honey Baby Liu Lan, and Xu Yi also took the stage to speak, making some introductions to the company's own business or expressing some views on enterprise management and development strategies.

The inaugural meeting of the association ended successfully, and Zhang Yida was about to leave when a tall, thin boy with glasses called out to him.

"Mr. Zhang, please stay!"

Zhang Yida looked back and looked a little familiar. Asked:

"You ......"

"I'm Dai Wei, a graduate student in economics at Guanghua University. Dai Wei first introduced himself, and then said:

"I started a bicycle company with a few alumni, and I would like to ask Mr. Zhang to visit and give us some suggestions. ”

Zhang Yida now knows who he is, his name and face, as well as the bicycle company, all of a sudden.

"Founder of FOF Bike Sharing, Dai Wei. ”

Zhang Yida suppressed the surprise in his heart, shook hands with Dai Wei with a calm face, and said:

"You are a senior brother, just call me Zhang Yida. Where is your company? Let's go and have a look.

I can't talk about it, we can talk about it and talk to each other!"

"Okay, then I'll call you Yida. Our company is in the third phase of the International Trade Center. Shall it be over now?"

Dai Wei was a little happy, thinking that the invitation would be rejected, but he didn't expect Zhang Yida to be so approachable, and he became famous at a young age but had no arrogance.

After saying hello to Tang Lin and the others, Zhang Yida and Dai Wei left together.

After arriving at the parking lot, Dai Wei looked at Zhang Yida's volcanic ash Paramela and exclaimed:

"This car is really good, the body waistline is good-looking!"

"Hehe, buy whatever you want. There is a traffic jam every day in the capital, and it is not as convenient as the subway!"

Zhang Yida also pretended to be forced lightly.

After the two got into the car, Dai Wei felt the leather seat in the co-pilot, and then said:

"It was quite comfortable. If I succeed in starting a business one day, I'll buy this car too. ”

Zhang Yida laughed dryly twice and encouraged:

"Come on! When the tuyere comes, pigs can fly into the sky. ”

Dai Wei's father is a leader of a central enterprise at the deputy ministerial level, and his family background is still very good, so it is absolutely not a problem to buy a car worth more than one million.

However, Zhang Yida will not be stupid to ask about people's family situations, after all, they have only known each other for less than an hour.

Zhang Yida was driving and chatting with Dai Wei.

"Why did you choose to start a business in the bicycle field?" Zhang Yida held the steering wheel and looked at the road ahead, and casually asked Dai Wei, the co-pilot.

"Personally, I like to ride and I like bikes. Because of my hobby, I want to start a business in this area. Dai Wei looked out the window at the traffic and replied.

"That's great! I can think of what I like as the direction of my business. Zhang Yida said with a smile.

"Bicycles are not easy to make!

We have done mountain bike online rental, with only one order in two months, we have done financial installment of high-end bicycles, and we have sold a total of 5 bikes, and we have done second-hand bicycle trading platform ......"

Dai Wei began to complain to Zhang Yida and listed his past entrepreneurial projects. Without exception, they all failed.

"It's too low-frequency to scale!" Zhang concluded.

"yes, the frequency of transactions is too low. I can't get through it anymore. Dai Wei sighed.

"Is it that bicycles have been eliminated with the development of the social era?

Otherwise, I have done so many projects, why haven't I done any of them?"

Dai Wei couldn't help but ask Zhang Yida.

"Anyway, as far as I know, Forever and Phoenix haven't had a good time over the years.

You can try it in the direction of high-end bicycle manufacturing. ”

Zhang Yida suggested.

"High-end bikes need to create a new brand, that's too hard!

This market has always been firmly controlled by foreign veteran bicycle manufacturers. ”

Dai Wei shook his head, this suggestion is definitely not reliable.

Zhang Yida didn't speak, concentrating on driving.

After a while, Dai Wei asked again:

"You say, how about cycling tours? Rent bikes to tourists and take them around. ”

"I feel like this has been quite popular lately. Do you want to try it in this direction?"

Zhang Yida knew that this was Dai Wei's last project before doing bike sharing, and of course the result was also a failure.

However, there is also progress, and it is said that it has received 1 million angel round financing!

"Yes, I think there should be a good opportunity in this direction combined with tourism!"

Dai Wei said wistfully.

"If you feel you have the opportunity, do it, don't be cowardly, just do it!"

Zhang Yida cheered him on.

Dai Wei is stupid, he also thinks that the direction is good! The main reason is that there is a lack of money and investment. But when I first met Zhang Yida, it was difficult to say it clearly.

After a while, the third phase of the International Trade Center arrived. Zhang Yida parked the car and went up to the 56th floor with Dai Wei, and arrived at their company, Beijing Baike Technology.

Walking into Baike Technology Company, the first impression of Zhang Yida is "narrow and small".

Narrow means that the entire company office area does not exceed 100 square meters.

If it's small, it's like a dozen people in the whole company.

"I'm sorry, our company has just started, so I'm smiling. Dai Wei said a little shyly.

"It's okay, it's okay. It's good, it's quite an entrepreneurial atmosphere. Ruixiang used to work in the Entrepreneurship and Entrepreneurship Center, and that kind of shared office is not as good as you. ”

Zhang Yida waved his hand again and again, indicating that it was okay.

Then Dai Wei introduced to everyone:

This is the founder of Ruixiang Jinke, Zhang Yida and Mr. Zhang. Mr. Zhang is also an alumnus of our Beijing University, and in less than a year after starting his business, Ruixiang has achieved a scale of 3 billion US dollars.

Now I would like to ask Mr. Zhang to tell you a few words!"

The other four partners of Daiwei, including some employees, also heard about Zhang Yida's deeds and applauded at this time.

Zhang Yida couldn't resist his enthusiasm, so he spoke:

"Hello everyone, I am honored to be able to visit and study at Baike Technology today.

I will tell you about the entrepreneurial process of Ruixiang! Ruixiang was established in October last year, when it was still crowded in the office of the Entrepreneurship and Entrepreneurship Center......

Later, I was lucky enough to get a $50 million Series A financing from Blackshirt Capital and Zhenke Fund, and Ruixiang was on the right track step by step......

Later, with funds, Ruixiang started product research and development in many fields such as mobile payment, credit management, and financial technology......

Along the way, my biggest feeling is that entrepreneurs must have tenacity and the courage not to admit defeat.

Seeing Baike Technology is like seeing the original sharp direction.

Come on, everyone, I wish the development of Baike Technology better and better!"

After Zhang Yida finished speaking, everyone applauded. Dai Wei called the other four alumni founders to the conference room and introduced Zhang Yida one by one.

A few people sat together and chatted about cycling tours. Zhang Yida now has a clearer understanding of their entire team and business.

After chatting about the same, Dai Wei looked at Zhang Yida with a smile and asked:

"Yida, what do you think of our project?"

"I think it's okay, that is, we must pay attention to the safety of customers' riding during the operation process, and don't make any accidents. ”

Zhang Yida truthfully suggested that in the previous life, it seems that there was a safety accident because of the tourist's riding, which led to the difficult birth of Baike Technology's cycling project.

"Well, cycling safety is a point that must be paid attention to in the operation process. We'll pay more attention to this. Dai Wei also nodded, feeling that Zhang Yida's suggestion was very pertinent.

Then Dai Wei asked with a look of hope:

"Riding safety aside, what do you think of the prospect of this project?

Do you want to invest and get involved?"
