Yanzi Valley of Jingcheng

Chapter 173 Probability Distributions

Lying on a second-hand single bed bought from "Xianyu", Shen Li couldn't help but think of Xiao Jie again. This man's thoughts are as extraordinary as his temperament.

Now Shen Li finally understands why Xiao Jie can make Guan Sha admire and admire him so much. He seems to be able to see through the essence of things in a second. The thinking frame in Shen Li's mind is far from Xiao Jie's.

Investment guru Charlie Munger once said, "To a man with a hammer, everything looks like a nail." This sentence just mocks those who only have one thinking frame.

Shen Li is such a person.

She thought that to realize her life goal of taking root in Qingyang was to squeeze out all her time to make money. She thought that her hard work and desperation would eventually be rewarded with God's favor, and she would be able to get closer and closer to her goal, but the truth was that on the contrary.

The house price in Qingyang is now so expensive that she can't even make up the down payment. Liu Qinqin is also more and more resistant to the tutoring and remedial classes that Shen Li spent a lot of money on. The relationship between mother and daughter is getting more and more rigid. I feel physically and mentally exhausted every day. The last time I fainted, my body was already sounding the alarm to my master.

"It's not just your hard work that determines your income, but also your cognition." Xiao Jie said.

For Shen Li, it is indeed difficult for her class to earn enough money in a short period of time, so she must find a way to change, at least try to change.

Xiao Jie told Shen Li that there are different models of people's income distribution in this world, one of which is the normal distribution. The curve of the normal distribution is like a bell shape, with short ends and a high middle, so the normal distribution curve is also called bell curve.

The wages of the working class are relatively close to the normal distribution, the maximum and minimum values ​​will not be far apart, and the increase in wages and bonuses at each level will not be very large. The wages of ordinary production line workers are more than ten yuan. Now if you live in a second- and third-tier city, your immediate superior may earn a few thousand more than you every month. In a first-tier city, it is 70 to hundreds of thousands. gap.

But with the amplifier of the Internet, the distribution of self-media income for personal brands is no longer a normal distribution, but a power-law distribution.

The power-law distribution is represented as a straight line whose slope is a negative number with a power exponent. Statistical physicists are used to calling the phenomenon that obeys the power-law distribution a scale-free phenomenon. The scales of individuals in the system vary greatly, and there is no optimal scale.

The commonality of this distribution is that the vast majority of events are small in size, while only a few events are of considerable size.

Xiao Jie gave an example Shen Li was familiar with, Ni Die and Yun Xiabai.

Ni Die and Yun Xiabai are both the leading anchors in the live broadcasting industry. Just the two of them can take away more than 50% of the wealth in this industry. It will account for 5% of the total number of people, but it is these 5% of people who have taken away 95% of the industry's wealth.

The distribution pattern in which a very small number of people take the vast majority of wealth is close to a power law distribution.

"This road is very difficult." Xiao Jie said to Shen Li, "But as a kind of experiment, you might as well sacrifice one or two part-time jobs to explore. In fact, you won't make much less money every month, but if If it succeeds, it will bring you huge profits.”

Shen Li clenched her fists when she recalled this, Xiao Jie was right, she should really try, not to mention that she had achieved little success in writing official accounts.

Why didn't I realize that this was an opportunity to cash in?
Why didn't you stick to it when you wrote it at the beginning, but went to live broadcast and deliver food?
Thinking of this, Shen Li began to blame herself extremely.

I hope it is still too late to think about how to do self-media and which content is worth digging deeply.

Thinking of this, Shen Li has decided to reduce the delivery time to 3 hours a day, and she does not intend to continue to do brainless part-time jobs on Little Blue Book. She has to change. Although there is a high possibility of failure after the change, but If the status quo is not changed, it will only get worse day by day.

Working hard to develop a personal brand is indeed a good suggestion that can overtake other cars in a corner. As long as the content is good, personal income can increase exponentially through the amplifier of the Internet.

"Dong dong dong!" At this time, Shen Li's door was knocked several times, "It's time for lunch!" Guan Sha's voice came from outside the door.

Guan Sha actually ordered a table of sumptuous takeaways at noon today, including spicy pig's trotters, yellow braised chicken, and salt and pepper pork ribs...

"Thank you for making breakfast today!" Guan Sha bouncing over with chopsticks.

Shen Li opened the chair and sat down, "You're welcome, it should be, isn't Xiao Jie your friend?"

"No no no! It's my boyfriend now!"

"Ah?" Shen Li was astonished.

"Don't rob me!" Guan Sha pointed at Shen Li and warned.

Shen Li smiled, "So fast?!"

"That must be!" Guan Sha was very proud.

While eating, Shen Li said, "Xiao Jie...oh, no, your boyfriend...was he good at math before?!"

"Yeah, I heard that he had an international competition that collided with some job interview, so he didn't participate, or he might come back with a world-class gold medal." Guan Sha looked proud, "Oh, wait for you to get in touch with him more. I know, he is good everywhere! He is really very powerful! He also told me today that starting a business is to solve problems for ordinary people and make some money by himself. If the problems my business solves are bigger, I will earn more more money."

Shen Li fell into deep thought when she heard the words, and asked after a while, "Then my self-media is also the same? Doing self-media is similar to starting a business, right?"

"I think it's pretty much the same." Guan Sha's cheeks are bulging, "But you can work part-time at the beginning, and I'm different. I have to devote myself... I don't have a direction right now, it's a big headache."

"Didn't your boyfriend tell you the direction?" Shen Li asked with a smile.

"Don't mention it!" Guan Sha frowned, "I was about to ask! I was interrupted by the fat security guard who sang loudly downstairs..."

"Ding……"

Just as Guan Sha said this, the WeChat notification sounded on her mobile phone, and she looked down to see that it was Ren Tianxing.

Ren Tianxing: Guan Sha, a note was posted on your house...

"What? Posted a note?"

Guan Sha immediately stood up and ran to open the door. Ren Tianxing was standing at the door, and a piece of handwritten paper was pasted right under the cat's eye on the door, which read:

Miss Guan, you are in arrears with rent for two months, please make sure to pay it on time, otherwise there will be no water or electricity in three days.

The payment office is written with the landlord's name, collection account, account opening bank, and rent payment in arrears.

"Did you make a mistake?! I don't owe rent!" Guan Sha was astonished.
