Raising money is a top priority, so today someone’s self-proclaimed “Kyoden Trident” rarely appeared at the venue of this entrepreneurial competition at the same time.
After Li Jianguo entered the door, he looked around and felt a little flustered: "Why are they all dressed in suits and ties like this? It seems that we are the only ones dressed so casually?"
The trio's outfits were indeed not deliberately arranged. The senior sisters still wore the usual sports and leisure style. As for Lin Yi and Li Jianguo, they were more comfortable and comfortable.
“It’s just right, it matches the name of our website very well.”
Lin Yi taught him a lesson: "Have you seen the gang bosses in old Hong Kong movies? Those who dress like this are the younger brothers. The one who appears wearing a Tang suit and a cane is the leading brother."
"Actually, it's the same in the workplace. You see, those who dress like a fool and rely on their clothes to enhance their status are just minions. The real bosses dress however they want."
What Lin Yi said is actually a bit biased. Elders also dress according to the occasion.
In fact, he didn't dress up for this game simply because he felt it was unnecessary to spend five hundred dollars to buy a low-quality suit at the zoo.
But you can't lose in terms of momentum, and it's easy to find an excuse for yourself: "The autobiography of Apple Joe's gang leader said that he had twenty sets of identical clothes in his wardrobe because he didn't want to waste time picking out clothes."
Then Lin Yi gestured with his hand to the three people who were incompatible with most people in the field, and concluded: "This is what we call geek style."
Li Moyan did not participate in their boring conversation, and imitating celebrities in such a trivial place as the secret to success can only be said to be seeking fish in a tree.
This competition was organized in a relatively formal manner. At the beginning, a special host came out to talk about it, and then grandly introduced several judges present.
He didn't sound like a young person, but neither Lin Yi nor the others knew him.
According to the order of the draw, Lin Yi and the others will appear later, so they need to sit down and watch the other participating teams come on stage one by one to make presentations.
Just by looking at the introductions, these participating teams are quite intimidating. They are basically from prestigious schools. Lin Yi and his team, Jingdian, can only be regarded as unremarkable.
However, after Li Jianguo saw both of them, he realized: "Isn't this an entrepreneurship competition? Why do they seem to be talking about a business plan?"
Lin Xiaosheng explained to him: "Didn't Teacher Li Feifei say that before? Most people in this kind of competition just talk about PPT. To put it bluntly, their real purpose is not to start a business, but to refresh their resume."
After all, the offers from big companies are still very good.
Li Jianguo didn't seem to understand, but at least he wasn't so nervous anymore. Lin Yi was basically convinced after seeing a few.
The teams on the stage changed one by one, and after a long time it was finally their turn. After the host announced the curtain, Lin stepped onto the stage calmly.
"Dear judges and classmates, I am Lin Yi from Beijing University of Electronic Science and Technology. I am very happy to share with you here."
"What my two friends and I brought today is an online food ordering takeout platform called Yiyi Takeout.com."
"If you are a student from a university in Haidian, there is a high chance that you have heard our name before, because our business currently covers almost 20 universities in Haidian."
Lin Yi observed that starting from this sentence, the judges facing him in the audience obviously looked serious, and one female judge even straightened her posture.
As for the other contestants sitting further behind, you can't see their expressions clearly, but anyone with some knowledge should understand what this means.
It can be regarded as giving them a show of strength.
"The origin of our website is very accidental. One night we were all playing games in our dormitory. We all played together until very late and then we all felt hungry. However, everyone knows that boys' dormitories don't tend to stock up on snacks."
"So we had to look for something to eat, but soon found out that all the food places in the school were closed because they had business hours."
"Of course we were not hungry in the end, but we walked a long way hungry before we found a place outside the school where we could have a midnight snack."
"So at that time we were thinking, this is really inconvenient. Is there any way to solve this problem so that we can enjoy delicious food anytime and anywhere without leaving home?"
“So, the idea of this food delivery website was born.”
“The idea excited us so much that we came up with various ideas to improve it and finally came up with a clear plan.”
This time there was no interruption by Li Feifei, and Lin Yi felt refreshed after telling the story he made up.
It's not that he has any hobby of deceiving people. Anyone who has experience in giving speeches knows that a fascinating story is much more effective than dry truth.
"Then we put this plan into practice. Because we are all students in the School of Computer Science, we came up with a sample while learning."
"Initially, we got support from our classmates at our alma mater, Jingdian. This success greatly encouraged us."
"That was in early October."
"Soon we began to move beyond Jingdian University and gradually expanded to other surrounding schools, including Jingdian University of Posts and Telecommunications, Beijing Normal University... and gradually reached our current scale."
"During this period, of course we also solved many problems. For example, our transportation capacity was insufficient at the beginning of the launch. For example, we experienced all the battery cars being stolen at one time. For example, the promotion in some schools was not smooth..."
Lin Yiyi packaged what happened to them before into a short story and threw it out, and then added a lot of data from the operation process, so that it seemed very complete and authentic.
After he finished speaking, according to the rules of the competition, there was a "peer review" session, where other contestants challenged the content he presented.
Lin Yi and the others have not exercised this power just now. To be honest, other teams have made careful preparations and there are not many places where they can challenge.
You can't question something that never happened.
Lin Yi and the others were different. As soon as he came up, he made it clear that this business venture was not just on paper, but had already been implemented and had achieved certain results.
Then you can find faults.
For example, a classmate in the audience raised his hand to pass the microphone, and then asked politely: "Hello, classmate Lin, I am very interested in the original intention of the website you just talked about, because I happen to be one of your users. As far as I know, you
There is actually no food delivery at all in the evening.”
Although he was very polite inside and outside his words, he couldn't hide his desire to slap her in the face. Fortunately, Lin Yi was able to cope with it at this level.
He replied calmly: "This classmate is right. Currently, due to technical limitations, cost-benefit and other reasons, we cannot deliver meals 24 hours a day. This is exactly the problem we will solve in the next step.
, which is also the reason why we came to compete today..."
Lin sent all the contestants away with a bit of chatter. According to the competition schedule, the next step was the judges' comments.
Unexpectedly, the serious female judge just now was a little scary when she opened her mouth:
"I just listened to your entire business logic and feel that there is a big problem with your current operation method. To put it bluntly, it may be a fatal problem."
