I graduated from a lower-middle school in Su North in 2016, and went to the school next door for higher education. I worked at a mobile phone testing company in Suzhou with my friends. They were squeezing students. I only worked there for half a month before they told me I wasn't suitable and sent me away. Then I moved to Shenzhen. I found a job as an editor for a company that made counterfeit tablets. I updated their WeChat articles and blog posts. I got paid 4000 yuan per month. The boss would only pay us once every two months. I brought 400 yuan with me when I arrived in Shenzhen. I had no money to eat. I borrowed money from my friend to buy a Redmi phone, which cost me more than 1000 yuan. I bought it on AliPay with zero interest. At first, some of the managers of the company were relatives of the owner. They lived in Nanjing and played with the P2P platform Jinbao all day long. They didn't care about working. They invested 270,000 yuan into Jinbao and ended up buying a Mercedes C-class car worth over 400,000 yuan. After Jinbao collapsed, most of the money was gone. If the company hadn't collapsed, he wouldn't have been able to find a stable business model. He suggested we make copies of some brand's bags (designs) using their designs. I decided to start making bags and ordered them to be produced by factories in Shenzhen. I had to go through a lot of paperwork. It took three days to get approval. However, after getting approved, we still couldn't produce anything because we needed to get a license to operate in Guangzhou. We were forced to go to the factory in Huizhong, where they already knew our plans. This allowed us to save costs and reduce production time. |
