Half a month has passed by in a blink of an eye, and it’s July. For the student party, it means summer vacation is here.
For World Cup viewers, the quarter-finals schedule is already halfway through. In the early morning of July 1, France 2:0 Nigeria and Germany 2:1 Algeria both advanced to the quarter-finals.
This carnival for football fans around the world has gradually come to an end, and there are still eight days left before the semi-finals that are destined to go down in World Cup history.
And Ms. Liu Huaiying's patience with Zhou Dongsheng is about to reach its limit.
Half a month has passed. Although Zhou Dongsheng maintains the good habit of jogging every morning and rushes to do the hygiene and housework at home, but so what?
In the eyes of Ms. Liu Huaiying, this is not doing the right job. If Zhou Dongsheng doesn't find something serious to do, it will probably be wrong for him to even step into the house with his left foot first.
Zhou Dongsheng also has trouble saying this, even though he has not been idle these days, getting up early and paying attention to the World Cup schedule in the dark.
Relying on vague fragmented memories and prudent financial management, I will not try my luck with teams whose names I can't even name, and will only attack teams I am sure of.
Even so, the steady Zhou Dongsheng could only manage to win more and lose less. Otherwise, how about losing nine out of ten bets?
Relying on this advantage, the balance in Zhou Dongsheng's bank card quietly became six digits, starting with 2.
Although the source of this money is reasonable and legal, it is sports lottery winnings that are taxable according to law.
But Zhou Dongsheng cannot tell Ms. Liu Huaiying that he made so much money just by watching the World Cup and buying random lottery tickets.
You have earned 200,000 yuan through serious work. My old mother is ecstatic, gratified, full of praise, and proud of you.
When you win 200,000 yuan in lottery tickets, your old mother will be happy, uneasy, and afraid that you will mess around, so she will help you save the money, just like the New Year's money in those years.
Although the old mother is good, when you realize that your parents are not omnipotent, they are just ordinary people with their limitations, it means that you have taken an important step on the road to growth.
And Zhou Dongsheng had already passed.
On this day, Zhou Dongsheng returned home in high spirits after finishing his run. Mother and son happily ate breakfast.
Ms. Liu Huaiying suddenly said: "Dongsheng, why don't you go back to repeat your senior year of high school and take the college entrance examination? My mother is still young, so it will be no problem for you to finish college..."
"Mom, I haven't been idle these days. I have been partnering with a friend to engage in e-commerce, opening an online store to sell things." Zhou Dongsheng said seriously.
If he were reborn on campus, maybe Zhou Dongsheng would really choose to study hard, not only because he had suffered enough from being uneducated in society.
The nostalgia and yearning for campus life have become the eternal white moonlight in Zhou Dongsheng's heart. However, real life can only be a mess.
But now that I have entered society and have plans and ambitions for the future, I don’t want to spend my precious time on campus.
When it comes to becoming the pride of his old mother, it is obviously much more difficult for Zhou Dongsheng to get into a key university or to make a lot of money.
"Oh, that's what you're talking about. I often hear people say in the factory that it's cheaper to buy clothes and things online. Is there any future in this?"
"It's very promising, so don't worry." Zhou Dongsheng assured with a pat on his chest.
"Okay, it's a good thing that you have ideas, but you must never do anything illegal or criminal, you know? The Internet is very chaotic."
"I see, don't you know who your son is? I don't have the courage to commit crimes."
"Since we are going to do business together, we can't take advantage of others. We can pay as much as we have to. Mom will give you the money!"
"It's okay if you lose. You're still young, so just think of it as gaining experience. There will be plenty of opportunities in the future."
The old mother's heartfelt words and Dundun's teachings would have been annoying to Zhou Dongsheng in the past, but now they only feel warm.
"Okay, but it doesn't cost much to do business online. We have computers at home, so we don't need to invest much in the early stage..."
"As long as you have an idea, Mom doesn't understand these things. Just wash the dishes after dinner and Mom will go to work first."
With a smile on her face, Liu Huaiying drove her scooter in the direction of Guzhen.
Zhou Dongsheng's hometown is a small village under Gu Town. In the 1980s and 1990s, Gu Town was just an unknown town with a timber business.
However, with the spring breeze of reform, large and small textile factories sprung up like mushrooms after a rain, which not only made a group of people rich, but also provided more jobs and attracted a lot of immigrants.
Because the main textile products in Guzhen are underwear, it is also known as the "famous underwear town".
Thanks to the jobs provided by factories, Liu Huaiying, a single mother, was able to raise Zhou Dongsheng with her hard-working hands, and she also saved a little money by frugally.
After so many years in the textile factory, Liu Huaiying also became a small leader in the workshop. She didn't have to work on the sewing machine day and night, but it was still very hard.
After all, the factory's schedule is 8107, so in their eyes, 996 is really a "blessing".
It is not easy for a working woman who has worked hard all her life to be free all of a sudden. Zhou Dongsheng plans to wait for the e-commerce stall to be built, and then let his old mother take a back seat and take care of herself.
As for e-commerce matters, Zhou Dongsheng has no intention of conniving his mother.
At first, Zhang Xuhui thought Zhou Dongsheng was just joking. After many exchanges, the two of them took it seriously as a serious matter. During the exchange, the two hit it off and now consider themselves partners.
After discussion, the two people decided on the prototype of starting a business, which was to open an online store to sell goods. It can be said to be a simple and unpretentious start-up, and it is in line with common sense.
After all, being backed by a textile industrial town like Guzhen has a natural supply advantage, and products are easy to find. As a local, there is always a relative who has made a fortune. This is a network.
The first step in starting a business is naturally to integrate your own resources, find ways to utilize them, and take advantage of them. Just like Deng Bin and others, they brought resources to Spring City on the plateau.
They chose the online store route. Zhou Dongsheng was responsible for setting up the online store, while Zhang Xuhui found a cooperative factory and found products to test the waters and put them on the online store.
Zhou Dongsheng also used some of his PS skills accumulated in his previous life to create detailed pictures and related introductions of the products. In addition to organizing the online store, Zhang Xuhui also went to learn from his peers.
What kind of online store needs to be run? The title should have keywords. You need to generate orders in the early stage to generate traffic. If you can make a hit, everything will be fine. Zhang Xuhui copied them all, but with little effect.
Zhou Dongsheng has invested 4,000 yuan of his salary, and Zhang Xuhui has also invested 4,000 yuan with the support of his family. At present, the store is still half-dead.
After all, with such a simple prototype of a business, they naturally cannot be the first to try it out, and the factory in Gu Town that has completed the accumulation of original capital is not a vegetarian either.
It's not difficult to open an online store. You can just find someone to manage it. How difficult can it be? If it doesn't work, just throw money at it. Factories with deep pockets have plenty of confidence.
In the circle of friends and classmates, there are countless people who will be engaged in the e-commerce industry in the future. Only Zhang Xuhui stands out and stands out from the crowd, turning from a worker into an entrepreneur.
Why?
Many people can't understand it, and Zhou Dongsheng can't understand it either, so they are ordinary people and can only envy him.
But in this life, Zhou Dongsheng has already hugged his thighs, so he can just win and be done with it.
Zhou Dongsheng didn't panic at all and waited for Zhang Xuhui to take off.
At this time, Zhou Dongsheng's phone rang. When he picked it up, Zhang Xuhui's somewhat squirming voice came from the other end.
"Brother Sheng, I have something to discuss with you. I have found a product that I think is very promising, but..."
A breakthrough was found so quickly? Zhou Dongsheng was very surprised. Is this the feeling of winning without hesitation?
"What product? I happen to be at home. Come directly to my house and we can talk."
…………
PS: Can anyone guess what product it is? It is adapted from a real case and is also a type of underwear...
