The friendly atmosphere of one question and one answer was broken in an instant, and everyone looked at Roy who was jumping to his feet in amazement, I don't know why, why was it that there was a ball of harmony just now, and suddenly there was lightning and thunder?

"Mr. Roy, is there any problem?" Wang Zhi subconsciously reflected on Roy, an authoritative senior.

Jamie also reassured beside him: "Yes, Roy, you say something, and they will listen to your advice." ”

Doyle pondered, could it be that Roy didn't like this kind of small business?

Roy was really speechless, just now he had a lyricism about the entrepreneurial world, and all of them played the piano to the cow, "Alas, when you say that you open a store, you say that you open a store, or say that you do business, even if it is a business, why do you need to use the word 'entrepreneurship'?"

Wang Zhi completely understood at this moment, Roy didn't look down on him, and he said stubbornly: "Then what are you talking about when you say 'starting a business'? In your eyes, what kind of business is called 'starting a business'? Aren't McDonald's and Starbucks just developing from a store to a multinational chain company? Can you say that their founders are not starting a business?"

"You're just hesitating to open your first store, you haven't even considered a lot of basic issues, you've just gone through the initial stage, imagining that you've opened your store all over the world, and you're comparing yourself to McDonald's and Starbucks? Children, let's make sure that your first store doesn't close down before we talk about anything else. ”

It's not that Roy is hitting the other party's self-confidence here, but after he communicated with Wang Zhi just now, he knew that this guy had no experience in opening a store at all, and the catering industry was quite cumbersome and the management difficulty was also very high, no less difficult than a small company. The other party may succeed in the future, but without hitting a wall in three or five years, it will definitely not even be able to find an entry into the industry.

Roy continued: "The most important characteristic of entrepreneurship is that you are not being asked to make the company very big. If so, then you're starting a business: if not, or if you can decide whether or not you don't, you're not the kind of 'startup' we think of as we are now. ”

Imagine the difference between opening a restaurant and doing a company like Google?

Suppose you open a restaurant, then your customer base must be relatively limited, such as an office building or family near the restaurant, and at most some other customers from a little farther away who come to eat your food. If you open a restaurant in Shanghai, you don't need to think about the competition between restaurants in New York, restaurants in Paris, and restaurants in Tokyo.

However, if you want to be Google, you have to take into account that there will not be 1,000 search engines in this world, there will probably only be three or five, and the volume of the first place will be much larger than the next few in the world. At this time, the competition and users are completely different.

In other words, if a person chooses to start a business, then he has no other way out than to become big. Any business that does not need to face a lot of competition and different customers, can choose not to make the company bigger and stronger, and can still survive, does not belong to entrepreneurship.

Now not only Wang Zhi and Yao Mengyu were surprised, but Jamie was even more speechless, in her heart entrepreneurship is investment and business, who knew that there was a distinction in this way, she suddenly felt that the proprietress of the "Fan Partner" business incubator seemed to have a lot of things to learn.

Jamie smiled awkwardly and asked stubbornly, "What's the difference between a company being big and not being big?"

Roy looked helplessly at Jamie, a delicate and petite little girl with lingering aura, and really admired her courage and execution. Jamie seems to have a fearless courage in this girl, as long as she believes in things, she will do what she says, and test her true knowledge in practice.

Jamie's attitude towards life, which bursts with a strong will, is destined for this girl to have certain achievements in the future.

"In fact, it is also very easy to understand, that is, when your business needs to become bigger, your management level, your level of introducing cattle, the ease of use and safety of your products, your impact on society as a whole, your relationship with competitors, shareholders and the capital market, etc., are completely different from opening a small store.

"And, most likely, you need to not only make your company bigger, but you need to make it bigger within a certain window of time. This requirement, in turn, has completely different requirements for your decision-making, operation, and management actions. ”

Jamie felt something, "You mean, the companies we fund in the future of the incubator must ask them to make the enterprise bigger?"

"Nonsense. Roy estimates that he can't explain clearly to Jamie, which involves the foundation of the VC (venture capital) industry and the law of making money - the "power rule" of investment - so for VC investment companies, he has no choice, not allowed to be "small and beautiful", if he only opens three restaurants and earns millions a year, they don't make any sense to VC.

Therefore, some companies and industries in the world are naturally suitable for taking VC money, and some do not need to take it at all, and even there are disadvantages to taking it.

If Jamie continues to build this incubator according to her current logic, she will definitely lose hope in life.

Wang Zhi snorted: "No matter what, the pizzeria, I've opened it." ”

Yao Mengyu Xizi sighed heartily, "Then I'll forget it, I didn't expect it to be so troublesome to open a café." ”

"Huh, aren't you two together?" Roy wondered.

Yao Mengyu smiled: "It's together, he's my cousin, we originally made an appointment to open a store by ourselves." ”

"This ...... That one...... Girls can drive. Roy suddenly found his conscience, and his tone was much softer.

"But, after I heard what you said, I was so worried. ”

"Dream Feather, every bird is an egg at the beginning of the period, and every successful entrepreneur starts without a company. ”

"But...... Didn't you say...... It's not a business. ”

"This ...... Men and women have different standards for entrepreneurship......, why? By the way, because of the different social division of labor between men and women, for women, the pressure of opening a company is likely to cause their own imbalance, but opening a small shop is definitely more than enough. Roy patted Yao Mengyu on the shoulder and encouraged: "You not only need to have an idea, but also believe in it, so that you don't give up easily!"

"Can I really do it?" Yao Mengyu's eyes blinked, full of hope, and she looked straight at Roy, waiting for the savior to give her a reassurance.

Wang Zhi, Jamie, and Doyle are all embarrassed and cancerous on the side, and the difference between your services is too great.

"You can. All glory comes from having the courage to start. Roy was well-dressed and upright, and poured chicken soup on Yao Mengyu.

Yao Mengyu nodded excitedly, but there seemed to be a little hesitation, she asked hesitantly: "Mr. Roy, will my store become a multinational chain listed brand like Starbucks in the future?"

Roy's face flushed, Nima, if Lao Tzu still echoes you, wouldn't it seem that his quality is too poor, am I that kind of person?

He pondered seriously for a few seconds, then suddenly looked directly at each other with his eyes, and nodded fiercely, "Mengyu, if you have the ability to grow, even if you are very young today, the future may be yours." ”

Yao Mengyu originally saw Roy's initial hesitation, and thought that her dream was unrealistic, but after a few seconds, this sincere determination made her immediately rise to the clouds, and was praised and recognized by her predecessors, which made her whole body erect outward, and her face turned into a red apple with shame.

Wang Zhi, Jamie, and Doyle on the side have already dropped their mouths to the ground, this differential treatment consultation is too obvious, right? What kind of shameless person can do this?

When they were chatting about the same, Jamie came out and solemnly apologized: "I'm sorry, I can't invest in your startup project." ”
