Chapter 1 Prologue

Next Chapter

For nearly 20 years, I have been alone in a foreign land, wandering around, forgetting what my hometown looks like, saying something that doesn't look like anywhere, surrounded by strangers, and outside of me is a strange city, air and wind.

I have always had a dream in my heart that I can take on the responsibility of living, and one day, I can return to my hometown in the bottom of my heart. But how do you live more and more I feel that it is not easy to live, eating and dressing, rent, water and electricity, after paying this and that, the money in my hand seems to be getting tighter and tighter, and it is getting farther and farther away from my dream.

Someone once said that money is not saved, the more you spend, the more you have. If you hear someone say that, remember, throw him a nice big mouth, and then spit on him, don't be polite to him.

Not everyone can earn faster than they spend, and most people always have to deal with increasing expenses.

Chinese have always been more reserved, embarrassed to open their mouths and shut up to say money, always want to talk and be ashamed, cover up, twist and answer, but the heart is golden, looking at the cash truck, blue light in the eyes and clenching fists. In fact, if you analyze it carefully, if you say that you are not bad for money, you must have money more important than your life, and if you say that it is useless to have a lot of money, you must be a big customer of the bank. Real ordinary people, buying a house and saving for 40 years, eating chaff and grass, swallowing several mouthfuls of saliva when watching their neighbors buy a piece of meat, they don't lack anything, they are short of money.

In today's materialistic society, no money can no longer be described as difficult to move an inch, and without money, life and death cannot be done. Eat, drink, wear, sit and lie down, even if you die, the urn will have to be tens of thousands, and if you want to bury it, the cemetery money is not much worse than the house, and it is more expensive to bury it in the funeral home than for the house. That's the reality.

I have heard all kinds of answers: in order to be meaningful, to contribute to the country, to achieve peace for mankind, no one says that it is to make money, in fact, people live to make money, and it is useless for you to think about anything else.

In fact, in this life, people live in a circle of feelings, the love of parents, brothers and sisters, husband and wife, family love, friendship, colleague, neighbor, etc., etc., what do you rely on to maintain these feelings?

Some people say that I am extreme, saying that the real relationship is not bad money, buddy, you have a friend who is in love with your brotherhood, or your own brothers and sisters, seeing your shadow is asking for money to borrow money, otherwise he can't even eat steamed buns and starve to death, you don't hide from him? With money, you can be filial to your parents, your wife and children, your relatives and friends, and only with money can you have all this, this is the real and happy life.

Over the years, I have walked around the whole of China, and the number of people I have contacted has not been hundreds of millions but tens of millions, and I have not seen a single person who doesn't want money, everyone rushed from HLJ to GD, from the Great Northwest to ZQSH, you don't think about money?

Everyone is eager to achieve something, that is, to make enough money, but there are really few people who know how to make their first pot of silver, this is the cruel reality, entrepreneurship is not you get some money to rent an office and hang a license, it is to make movies.

College students are now as many as ants, or their hearts are higher than the sky, and there are more who haven't gone to college, like sand, their hearts are not high, and they can't sleep when they think about money, so they don't know where to go.

There must be a first step in walking, raw rice must be eaten first, water must be found to drink water, and original capital must be used to start a business.

In my life, half of the past is over, and it is estimated that this is the case, but fortunately, I have met a lot, and I can be regarded as having opened my eyes, so I want to take advantage of the fact that I am still a little lively, and write out what I have seen and know, hoping that through Rory's wordy nonsense, it can be helpful to people who want to make money, to people who are eager to start a business, and to people who can struggle, and at least to get a general direction, if someone develops through this nonsense text, you must remember my good, send me some silver, so that I can pay the electricity bill owed last month, and save me from always running to other people's houses at night to borrow it。

In fact, I hate pure theorists the most, they are so poor that they can't stand it, they make a lot of clichés and empty words, and want to cheat some money from others to eat, but there is no way, hungry, theory is theory, you just treat me as an industrialist, remember.

Although it's a story, I'm talking about entrepreneurship, and some of the data in it may increase or decrease due to regional differences, so don't compare with me.

Everyone mentioned in the article is a real grassroots, whether they want to study or not, whether they want technology or not, and they don't have any illustrious families, they count eight generations, they must not exceed the sub-department level, they must not have more than 100,000 deposits, they are all genuine little people. The order of the story is written according to my personal age and experience, no special meaning, purely a habit of thinking, the approximate starting point is the late eighties, so because of the relationship between the era and social development, there are some data in it that must be wrong with reality, I have tried my best to avoid it, and please rely on yourself to verify one by one, entrepreneurship is a high-risk thing, the more fully prepared in the early stage, the higher the possibility of success in the later stage.

Another point is to control and grasp their own mentality, this kind of control is not a day or two things, is a lifetime of events, many people have succeeded in starting a business, and finally fell on their own mentality, the typical representative here is myself, I left home at the age of seventeen to break out on my own, twenty-nine years old small assets, but finally at the age of thirty-one bankrupt, since then struggling in life.

Don't be young and frivolous, and think that you are also a character, so you talk about pomp and luxury, and the focus of life shifts to play, and there is nothing left after a year. It takes one or two years to build a building, and it only takes ten minutes to demolish a building, which is an eternal truth, which must always be remembered in mind, written on the wall, and constantly reminded yourself.

Mindset also includes attitudes towards oneself, toward others, and toward society. I have seen too many successful people, and I wish the whole world knew about my success, although this success may not even be a fart in the eyes of others. So whether it is family or neighbors, they don't pay attention to it, the money is a little, and the favor is gone, which is the most outweighed loss.

There is also a little bit of money, you have to be scared, you feel that you are a character, and no one cares about it, this must be the iconic mentality of suffering a big loss. There is an old Chinese saying: Don't deceive yourself when you're frustrated, don't deceive others when you're proud, and no one knows what the future holds. Among the people I know, there are hundreds of millions of families who smoke cigarettes for two yuan and five dollars per pack, and there are at least two people who wear work clothes and ride bicycles, one is a shoe maker, and the other is a shoe seller, of course, not a brand, and they don't have anything to do with it. At that time, I laughed at people behind my back, and at that time, everyone was about the same net worth, and I thought they were too dirty. Now people have hundreds of millions of assets, I don't have anything, people are still riding bicycles, oh there is a car, Chery QQ, look back and see, it is this kind of mentality that makes people stand tall, I want to learn too late.

In entrepreneurship, the attitude towards failure is also very important.

Failure is like a utility bill, no matter how much you resist it, it still comes back once a month, and you pay a little, because of your behavior, you use water and electricity. Yu Qi took out the money and scolded with the list, it is better to think about how we can save some money next month. Take myself as an example, at that time, after the failure of SH, I was in a state of self-abandonment for almost five years, and as a result, I couldn't do well at work, and I couldn't handle my family well, let alone make a comeback.

Failure is an experience, not a burden.

Networking is also very important in starting a business, and sometimes it can be more important than your capital and preparation for preliminary examinations. Now society is a super-realistic society, most people's rules for dealing with people are to pay now, if you can't drink, you can send money, and if you can't send money, you can't send beautiful women, which is also a way to deal with connections, but it's the lowest level. Don't look down on anyone, respect anyone, get along with anyone with your heart, and rely on the connections accumulated bit by bit to be your own wealth. Shi Bai Jin fell with the Giant Mansion back then, if it wasn't for Liu Lian to help him lend him money, there would be no Shi Bai Jin now.

Finally, I would like to say: when we are at the bottom, others can look down on us, and we must treat ourselves as a character; when we are at the top, others can flatter us, but we must not treat ourselves as characters.

In this world, there are few things, but there are the most cattle.
