Wind Rises 2005

Chapter 55 A Rumor
Every holiday ends, countless people suffer from vacation syndrome.

Reflected in Ma Liang's roommate, it was the first day of class after the National Day, which was listless and weak.

Not only was he late for the first time in college, he didn't even bother to eat lunch after class, so he went back to the dormitory to catch up on sleep.

Even when Ma Liang invited Senior Jiang to dinner, the three guys were too tired to be interested.

Although Ma Liang was tired from setting up a stall, it was good to have a day off.He is not greedy for games, he went to bed early last night, so he is naturally full of energy today.

After class at noon, he came to [Huaxing Restaurant] ahead of time, first ordered a few hard dishes that needed to be cooked for a long time, and then slowly waited for Jiang Yinqiu and Liu Zhaojun to come over.

This is a local restaurant with a small area, but it is well-known in the university town.

Students from Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai like this light but very authentic home-cooked restaurant.

Originally, Ma Liang chose several better restaurants, but Jiang Yinqiu still decided on this one.

No need to guess, he must be too embarrassed to let him spend too much money, so he chose the cheapest restaurant.

After a while, seeing Jiang Yinqiu and Liu Zhaojun walking into the restaurant, Ma Liang immediately got up and waved: "Sister, this way!"

The last time the club recruited newcomers, Liu Zhaojun also said that their dormitories were dispatched collectively, and when Ma Liang had a treat, he had to bring two other roommates to slaughter him.

But when it came time for a real treat, they weren't stupid enough to really do that, so two people came.

"Ma Liang, you've been waiting for a long time! Don't blame me, it's because your sister Jiang University is too busy and came late." Before Jiang Yinqiu could answer, Liu Zhaojun greeted her first.

Hearing the words, Jiang Yinqiu shyly pushed his best friend immediately: "Don't talk nonsense."

"It's okay, I'm just here too, please sit down!" Ma Liang replied politely, and then handed over the menu, "I ordered a few dishes first, the two senior sisters see if there is anything else you want food."

He reported the two or three hard dishes he ordered, forcing Jiang Yinqiu and Liu Zhaojun to add a few more dishes.

"Ma Liang, just add two vegetarian dishes, it's a waste to order too much." Jiang Yinqiu persuaded tactfully.

Ma Liang didn't make things difficult for her, and said directly to Liu Zhaojun: "Senior sister, come and order, if it wasn't for you, Jiang Xuejie wouldn't agree to come for dinner!"

"Then I'm really being rude. Let's have a portion of shredded eel in oil, and another portion of deep-fried shrimp." Liu Zhaojun happily added two moderately priced dishes.

She is a native of Modu, and she is very familiar with the local cuisine, and knows what to order so that everyone can save face.

Although the restaurant is not big, the food is served quickly, and Ma Liang ordered some hard dishes early, and they were served one by one in a short time.

Benbang braised pork, sweet and sour short ribs, hairy crab rice cake, shredded eel in oil, deep-fried shrimp in oil, plus wine and herb head and pickled fresh meat, meat and vegetables, and soup. This is definitely enough for a treat. .

Ma Liang ordered a bottle of Coke himself, and also ordered two glasses of juice for them.

Poured the drink, raised his glass and said: "I sincerely thank the two senior sisters for their help, I would like to offer you a toast, thank you!"

"Ma Liang, you don't need to be so polite, we are all students in the same college." Jiang Yinqiu also picked up the cup and replied politely.

Liu Zhaojun also agreed with him familiarly: "It's the right thing to help my junior. I'm ashamed to be so polite about a little thing."

"Haha, it's my fault, then let's be casual, and I won't persuade you to eat or drink." Ma Liang also likes this kind of unwelcoming intimacy.

So the three of them didn't say any more polite words, and ate and chatted while picking up anecdotes from the school.

Of course, Ma Liang also reported the general situation of his part-time tutoring and stall setting during the National Day holiday. After all, the two seniors in front of him are benefactors who help him make money.

"So you sold out all those discs?" Jiang Yinqiu exaggeratedly asked.

Ma Liang nodded with a smile, and replied frankly: "That's right, and I made up for it a few times later, so I really made a lot of money."

"You are a good junior. You know how to start your own business at a young age. You are amazing." Liu Zhaojun took a piece of braised pork and couldn't help but praise it before putting it into his mouth.

Ma Liang could only be modest: "No, it's all forced by life."

"Then what are your plans next?" Jiang Yinqiu was still a little worried, for fear that Ma Liang would continue to do the pirated disc business.

After all, it is illegal, and the more you do it, the more likely there will be bad effects.

Ma Liang heard her worry, and immediately assured: "Sister, don't worry, I will definitely not do those things in the future.

Now that I have some funds in hand, I am considering finding some new projects, but after much thinking and thinking, I still can't find the direction. "

"That's not easy, it's for food." Liu Zhaojun was chewing braised pork, and suddenly said this.

Ma Liang was very puzzled when he heard the words: "Eat?"

"That's right, gourmet snacks. Let's not talk about the urban area, just some special snacks in the university town. Look at which business is bad.

If you do something special, the queue can go from Huazheng to Dongwai.

If you are lucky enough to become an online celebrity shop like those time-honored brands in Guangming Village, people from all over the city may travel thousands of miles to line up to buy from you.

It depends on whether you can find the right product. "Liu Zhaojun analyzed carelessly.

As a local in Shanghai, I don't know anything else, but she is quite familiar with the good business of specialty snacks.

The history of some local Internet celebrity snacks in Donghai can be traced back to half a century ago.The common people here love to line up for that kind of food, and they are famous all over the country.

Fresh meat mooncakes and sauced duck from Guangming Village, dim sum from Harbin Food Factory, bad chicken and octopus from Laorenhe, cakes from Shen Dacheng, sorbet and curry beef dumplings from Lao Dachang, eight-treasure rice and glutinous rice balls from Wangjiasha, etc.

These time-honored online celebrity stores are definitely the originators of the queuing frenzy of online celebrity stores in China.

During the most exaggerated time of the New Year and holidays, the queue can travel hundreds of meters. The longest record is said to be 8 hours to buy.

I have to say that the people of Shanghai are willing to spend both money and time when it comes to food.

That's why Liu Zhaojun can say that casually, because it's a common thing for others.

But her reminder pointed out a feasible direction for Ma Liang.

Food and snacks are really a good business field, with small investment and fast returns. If you find the right product, you can accumulate the real first pot of gold for him in a short time.

The small amount of money for selling pirated discs is only enough to do a small business, not the first pot of gold at all.

But he didn't have any business experience in his previous life, so how would he know what kind of snacks to make.

So Ma Liang opened his mouth and asked, "Senior sister, do you have any good suggestions for gourmet snacks?"

"Don't ask me this, I'm just giving directions casually.

If I knew what to do, I would have made a fortune a long time ago, so how can I tell you? "Liu Zhaojun shook his head, saying that he couldn't help.

Ma Liang sighed helplessly: "That's right, but thanks for reminding me, senior."

"Or you can go to the urban area to do more research and find specific directions.

It doesn't necessarily mean that it must be completely innovative. It depends on what kind of snack business is good, and you can copy one in the university town. "Jiang Yinqiu kindly suggested.

After all, as the president of the Founding Association, she still knows a lot about entrepreneurship.

Innovation is so difficult, whether it is business model innovation or product innovation, it is beyond the reach of ordinary people.

Especially for inexperienced college students like them, it is even more difficult to start a business with high ambitions, and they have to come up with some innovations by themselves.

For the snack business, if there are successful cases in other places, copying it to a new blank market is a more reliable entry point.

Upon hearing this, Ma Liang said gratefully: "Yes, it is absolutely possible to copy one, thank you senior sister for your suggestion."

He could feel the worry in the other party's words, and he was still afraid that he would lose his business again if he was not careful.After all, it is not as easy as most people think that starting a business is a near-death experience.

While greeting the two seniors to eat, Ma Liang also fell into deep thought.

Suddenly, he suddenly remembered a rumor he heard in his previous life at a dinner party hosted by a client.

The story of a catering and snack tycoon who instantly made his fortune in Shanghai with an internet celebrity snack.

The reason why I have a deep memory of this rumor is because this catering boss made snacks to an astonishing degree.

Because someone once ran to the office of the investment manager of the mall with 100 million in cash, just to ask for a small booth.

It can be seen how exaggerated the business of this boss's internet celebrity snacks is.

This coquettish operation instantly became the hottest topic of conversation in the venture capital, commercial real estate, catering and retail circles of Shanghai.

Ma Liang had personally experienced that internet celebrity snack in his previous life, and it was indeed a super capable product.

It took two or three years for the boss to make his fortune with this internet celebrity snack, which gave him a lot of room for maneuver.

How about copying one yourself in advance?
