When I heard Xue Zhiqian's "Ugly Eight Monsters" this year, I felt like Eason Chan's "Exaggeration" back then.

Eason Chan's "Exaggeration" has been released in 05, and the singing style is amazing, intense and emotional, and it tells a wonderful hysterical story in one song. But the situation at that time was that there were no fires, at least rarely heard on the mainland. But it wasn't until Lin Feng's Peak Love Infinite Concert in 09 that Wang Zulan continued the 'evil' singing method of this song, and this song was widely familiar to mainland audiences.

And this year's "Ugly Eight Monsters" is obviously not a new song, this song has been out for 13 years. Although it feels very good, Xue Zhiqian's singing skills are first-class, and his feelings are delicate and rich, but he has not become popular. In the end, it was Li Keqin who performed this song again on the stage of "I Am a Singer" that it became popular.

This story is clearly telling us, a talented person, to do a great thing. In this era, if there is a lack of a good stage, then gold will often be ruthlessly buried and in the company of loess.

The same is true for some businesses, obviously there are good goods, but because there is no good market, it is not uncommon to do bad business.

……

The second time I went to the second-hand computer market, I went alone, because Luo Hong was already like glue with his good fellow countryman, and the two horses were inseparable. It would take a lot of effort to do it, but apparently I wasn't cruel enough to make up my mind to do it.

So I had to give up this guy's heavy color and light friend, and I had to go alone.

The second time I went to the second-hand computer market, I was entrusted to buy a second-hand laptop. When I went to the second-hand market, I suddenly felt as if an alien had put an idea in my head.

"Oh my God, it's all full brand parts! And so much! ”

"If you can make money at a low price, assemble it yourself and sell it at a low price, won't you make a fortune!" I was pleasantly surprised, because all the thinking about doing business that I had learned in my previous reading was like a button in my head that was suddenly pressed by someone. I clearly feel that all the business ideas I have learned before have been activated at this moment. A map of my centered business came to my mind, and my nerves were more excited than ever!

Excited as I am, I first learned about the origin of these old computers and even accessories:

Source: Except for some from Hong Kong, almost all of the others are from abroad! There are Korean, Japanese, American, British, and more!

Price: It's almost the same as garbage, just a little higher than garbage;

The reason for this once-in-a-century opportunity is that all of these machines are foreign living standards. After these second-hand accessories were eliminated in developed countries, people with intentions made them come from overseas, and all of them were second-hand. For example, Samsung laptops from South Korea, these discarded products thrown away by South Korea, are collected by those who use horns on the street to collect waste, and then sell them to Chinese middlemen, who then use ocean freighters to transport these things to China!

This qiē proves that these things come from a normal way!

My thinking has been spread, and a business structure has slowly come to mind:

First of all, in front of the huge data, if I want to assemble a laptop. The screen, the motherboard, and the old chassis, down to the camera, are all here! In that case, according to the price of old computer accessories here, the cost should be between 300~500 to assemble a second-hand laptop!

In that case, if I go to sell, as long as the price is between 400~1000 yuan, I can earn nearly 100 to 600 yuan per unit! This is sky-high, what business is more profitable than making second-hand notebooks?

Second-hand computers below 1,000 yuan are still in demand in China for the time being, after all, there are so many poor people. In terms of the country's large purchasing power, not everyone can afford a new computer, and the biggest problem with second-hand computers is not whether anyone buys it, but after-sales!

This is a common problem in every second-hand industry, doubting the longevity of its products!

I don't have to worry about that at all, because our college is a science college. Half of the school is the School of Electronic Technology, as the School of Electronic Technology, solving a computer maintenance technology is nothing!

……

When I got back to school, I still remember sitting in front of my second-hand computer.

There are two villains on my desk, one of them says that this business is promising, don't worry so much, hurry up and do it; The other said, "You're just a poor kid from an auto college?" Why do you do the computer industry? Do you have start-up capital? Do you have technical capital? You have nothing......

After thinking about it repeatedly, I think the second-hand computer industry still has a future. But with my ability alone, I absolutely can't do it. So I took a photo of the business opportunities I had learned, added some explanations, and posted them on the school's work-study forum and entrepreneurship forum, and put the matter aside.

Later, I found out about this post, and I don't know who it was, but it had been hanging on the top for many weeks.

……

During this period, I would occasionally help my work-study classmates assemble second-hand notebooks in the second-hand market: "Hey, college boy, are you coming to pick up the goods again?" Lao Wu said with a smile, he was a thin middle-aged man. As for how thin it is, can you imagine it with a toothpick? His figure is more than 1.8 meters tall and weighs only 49 kilograms, which is a true portrayal of Mr. Toothpick.

"Hee-hee, of course, otherwise would you be greedy for a smell here?" I joked that Lao Wu and I did business not once and a half, and this thin middle-aged man gave me the impression of being a very enthusiastic and honest middleman of second-hand computer accessories.

"Hehe, this kid, the business is getting bigger and bigger, this time I actually asked for thirteen units of material at a time, which is the top half a month's shipment volume for us here."

"Well, this batch of goods is from my classmates, we are all children of poor families, and I am doing unpaid voluntary work." I explained that I was very happy to be able to help people, and that we were all children of poor families, so we should support each other.

"Hehe, I'm a big boss, do you have to go back with my back this time?" Lao Wu was a little surprised by a large schoolbag I took out.

"Less nonsense, I'm a poor boy from the countryside, can't I carry thirteen laptops?" I smiled and said, throwing the goods on my shoulders, yes, it's really not light, old-fashioned notebooks are generally about 7~9 pounds. All of a sudden, there are seventy or eighty pounds of things on my shoulders, and it is estimated that people will feel struggling.

……

As for the reply on the forum, I definitely didn't think about it, and the first person who thought of contacting me was Ma Guoliang. And I always thought that most likely the work-study guy would be the first to find me, and he told me that he saw a post on an entrepreneurship forum.

This is a bit out of place, because in my imagination, generally speaking, work-study students need to work more to earn money, right?

I realized later that I had made a mistake. That is, work-study students are more cautious than those who are ambitious to start a business. It is a fact that they are short of money, but equally afraid of change. Entrepreneurship is something that can change their three views, and what they want is a stable job, not this kind of passionate thing that will bring about change.

"Why do you think you're going to succeed?" Ma Guoliang, dressed in very fashionable clothes and wearing flip-flops on his feet, like a rock star, stood proudly at the door of my dormitory, touched his nose and asked strangely.

"I didn't say that entrepreneurship will be successful." I said, to be honest, I didn't have a good impression of Ma Guoliang at first sight when I saw Ma Guoliang's trendy dress, especially in terms of entrepreneurship.

"There are risks in any business, and entrepreneurship needs to be cautious." I added.

"Cautious people are not wrong and are not easy to make mistakes, but their hearts are too humble to be suitable for being a wage earner." Ma Guoliang said, making a posture of Bruce Lee's nose scraping.

The fact that he could say such philosophical things made my eyes shine. Maybe those work-study students are 'too humble in heart', I think.

"If I were humble at heart, would I still post to pull the team?" I asked rhetorically.

He hesitated, savored my words, and after a long time, asked, "The last question, start-ups must have no money, what do you think about the role of money in the entrepreneurial process?" ”

"Those who achieve great things cannot do without money, and it is not just about money."

"Okay, Boss, I'm asking to join!"

Me: The impression that this kid "......" gives me is very complicated, very complicated......

……

"Hey, brother, it's you."

The third time I went to the second-hand computer market, I had already brought Ma Guoliang with me, but I didn't expect that there would be his acquaintances who recognized him in the market.

"Oh, you know me?" Lao Ma also expressed curiosity, and the atmosphere was a little awkward.

"Of course, my brother's electronic maintenance skills are so good, haven't you won a lot of awards?" The person on the other side said to Ma Guoliang.

I realized later that the old horse is not amazing. Dress is not mainstream, but it is a real technical control. This kid likes computers since he was a child, he came into contact with computers at the age of seven, he can play computer games at the age of eight, and later he also learned the web system for a few years. Although the web page later encountered the financial turmoil in 2008 and 2009, China's web page system was excessive, and the guide zhì failed to make the web page. But he came to this school and learned hardware technology, which shows his dedication to the IT industry.

"Senior brother mentioned so many motherboards." The classmate said with a puzzled expression.

"Yes." The old horse was too lazy to answer.

"Didn't you call a taxi?"

"Nope. I'm going to pack it back in my suitcase. "I was a little embarrassed to take over the conversation and said, we have just started a business, and now at this level, everything has to rely on selling labor.

"I can't fit my suitcase."

"Hehe, this is my father, he sent me to see if there was an internship position, and I will send you and the goods back later." The four-eyed classmate pushed the thick lenses on his eyes and said.

We were so enthusiastic that we got into the classmate's car. This incident shows that Lao Ma was the lucky star of our entrepreneurial team from the beginning.

“……”

Later, I asked Lao Ma, he has such skills and capital at home, why do you follow me as a hard-working little person?

His remarks choked me again: "Of course I know that I am not a person who resists the banner, because I have not learned a little business knowledge at all, I have just been picking up girls recently, I need a boss like you who is aggressive, knowledgeable and directional......"

"I'm not sure I'll succeed either." I spread my hands and said.

"I'm not sure that I must follow the right person, I only know that you are the best I have ever seen, knowledgeable, practical, and don't cheat people."

The size of the ability is not important, the most important thing is the boss, Lao Ma said.

"You're the first investment in my life, I'm not a reckless person, but I've spent time getting to know you; A college student, spending countless scheming, using the No. 11 bus every day, running the market, your diligence and intelligence are directly proportional, and it is worth investing. ”

Me: "......" Actually, I am not as godly as he said, sometimes I walk on the street on the 11th Road, just to see the girl go, and it has nothing to do with business.

But I won't tell him about this. It's nice to be complimented.

I turned my face sideways and smiled inwardly. Because I feel like I've learned how to take in my little brother.
