He started his business at the age of 16, and now he has earned billions of dollars, why can he do it?
Chen Qingfeng's childhood was spent playing on construction sites.? I remember when I was very young, my father went to work on the construction site, it has been brought me around.?
The year he graduated from junior high school, Chen Qingfeng played poorly, a few points away from the secondary school filing line, which needs to be self-funded school.
In an accidental situation, heard his father in a conversation with relatives, with ? Reading is not serious enough? to describe him. He was not willing to spend his parents' money anymore and decided to go out on his own.
At the age of 16, Chen Qingfeng began his apprenticeship. Starting from the most basic in this business. Because of his age, Chen Qingfeng at that time was also jokingly called by his fellow workers? child laborer.

The first time I've seen this is when I've had a chance to see the world's most famous man.

I didn't grow up with a golden spoon in my mouth like the outside world thinks. I wasn't born with a golden spoon in my mouth like people think. In fact, I have witnessed the growth of my parents, and witnessed their hard work from the small workshop. Chen Qingfeng said.
In order to prove himself, Chen Qingfeng insisted on starting from scratch like his father, and he vowed to make a show and come back.
For a long time, Chen Qingfeng insisted on living and eating at the construction site, learning about the structure and operation of various large-scale construction equipment, as well as various characteristics within the construction industry.
During the day, he carried rebar, cement, and piles, and his face was covered with dust and sweat.
At night, lying in the temporary shed on the grassy ground, he and his partners used the wooden planks as beds and flashlights as lamps, and often slept through the exhaustion without saying two words. The facilities in the shed were simple, with no doors or windows, and when it was hot, mosquitoes and flies flew all over the place. After only one summer, Chen Qingfeng was tanned, in his own words? My girlfriend at the time came to see me and didn't even recognize me.?
It was under such difficult conditions that he survived and grew. He is from an ordinary apprentice to the group company boss; from a junior high school graduates to the Fudan MBA masters; from the monthly income of only a few hundred dollars to the assets of more than 100 million, each ordinary people need to use more than ten years to complete, or more than ten years can not be completed, but he also handed over three satisfactory report card.

The Bank of Shanghai Cup The first Shanghai youth entrepreneurial pioneers, but also by the *** Youth League Fengxian District Committee, Fengxian District Youth Federation named 2006?

For a barehanded entrepreneur, the most important thing is perhaps not the model or positioning, but the tenacity and courage to go through a hundred turns and peaks.

Started a business at the age of 16, just 25 years old, but he has a billion in hand
He was born to toss, 16 years old, started a business, from selling magazines to sell teaching materials, from selling postcards to sell small gifts, 23 years old is already a billionaire, he is the founder of the gift said, Wen Chenghui.
Where there's a will, there's a way
Born in '93, Wen Chenghui is a native of Shantou, Guangdong. Influenced by his father's generation, he is not satisfied with working, with a small capital, he wants to be his own boss.
His junior high school ran a magazine called "Zero One Degree". On the eve of his senior year graduation, he had another ? June 7 Clear? The company's sales of tutoring materials made a small profit of 10,000 dollars.
In college, Wen Chenghui met Annie Chen, a hobbyist hand-painter, and one had money and one had craftsmanship, so they hit it off and set up a studio, focusing on postcards.
Soon, a set of postcards telling the series of schoolchildren's campus life?2 in Guangwai? appeared to be a hot seller.
On the eve of graduation, Wen Chenghui even customized a copy for graduating college students? I love the university city? series of postcards.
Including Beigang night market, 381 bus, rent a bike ride around the island, the center of the lake lazy afternoon, food center, evening jogging in the inner ring and so on 8 sequences.
Full of youth, full of memories, the final set of postcards sold more than 8000 sets, almost every graduate manpower a set.
After that, Wen Cunhui moved into a 100-square-foot office building in Tianhe, Guangzhou, and set up Sticky Technology.
Considering the traditional postcard, small writing space and limited content, Wen Cunhui invented the sound postcard.
Scan the QR code on the postcard with your cell phone, you can receive pictures, text, audio and video from the sender through WeChat, Weibo, QQ and other social platforms to treasure the time with a painted pen and convey warmth with sound?
The postcard was sent to the public in the first half of the year, but it was not sent to the public until the end of the year.
Six months later, Wen Chenghui took more than 20 colleges and universities in Guangzhou, postcard sales of more than 1 million, he earned the first 200,000 of his life, but also successfully obtained the 1 million angel investment from the Innovation Valley.
In February 2014, Wen Cunhui swung north to kill Beijing.
? Do not be the same after 90?
This time he launched ? Gift said ?
So the question is, postcards sell well, why would you do gift saying?
Because on April Fool's Day 2014, Wen Chenghui was indeed fooled.
Because of the language does not work well, coupled with do not understand the Beijing market, he only 2 months to deal with 3 colleges and universities, and all of them are Miyun, Pinggu and other suburb of the substandard school! You should know that previously in Guangzhou swept more than 20 colleges and universities in a month.
Not a penny in the pocket, but rent, utilities, storage fees, etc. can not be a word.
Wen Chenghui depressed to the extreme, turned to go to the Wudaokou under the footbridge to buy a bottle of erguotou, the results of four people drank down three people, the only Wen Chenghui more and more sober, ? The first thing you need to do is to get a good deal of money and a good deal of money.
Where to turn? The answer is the gift. Because he searched on Taobao? The first thing you need to do is to find a way to get the best out of it. The word "gift" was used in the search for the word "gift", and I turned over 50 pages, but I couldn't find what I was looking for.
And, on Baidu, he searched for? What to send?
Wen Chenghui immediately realized that a small gift inside a big article!
? First, the state banned three public consumption, tobacco, alcohol, tea and other traditional gifts will fade out. Secondly, the rise of the mobile Internet will bring huge business opportunities for small goods valued at less than 1,000 yuan.?
? It's it!?
3 months later in July 2014, ? Gift Said?APP was officially launched.
As the name suggests, Gift Say is recommending gifts for boyfriends, for coworkers, for elders, for girlfriends...?
The home page is the gift strategy, updated every morning at 8:00 a.m. Strategy, selected wear, beauty care, shoes and bags, the latest style, ? Different seasons, different festivals, different recommendations.?
Each gift will be accompanied by 2 pictures, showing the price of the gift, how many fans like it,? You can rate, favorite, share,? Of course you can buy it with one click by clicking on it.
Behind the strategy is big data. Wen Chenghui will calculate the number of likes and favorites of the gift according to the statistical model, and then put the popular gifts together to increase the probability of purchase.
? Beautiful small things? s section, every day will recommend 10 cheap small gifts, stationery ah, snacks ah, trinkets and so on.
However, engage in retail without money, promotion, publicity, who knows what you sell?
The key time, Sequoia Capital and Inno Angel Fund stood out and invested in the angel round.
At the critical time, Annie Chen stepped forward. At this time she is already 8 million fans of the cartoon blogger, casually send a microblogging, minutes to read more than 1 million.
? Today for you to prepare the most massive gift ever, 100,000 postcards, read this story, forward @ a friend, you can fill in the address in the link, I will help you mail for free!!!?
Annie Chen drew a set of cartoons about the story of Wen Chenghui's entrepreneurship, and sent them out 3 times in a row.
As a result, half a month later, the gift said more than 500,000 registered users.
Of course, Wen Chenghui did not idle, he led his staff to more than 50 colleges and universities, such as NPC, free campus hand-drawn postcards, ? Swipe and you can download the Gift Said APP.?
At the same time, Wen Chenghui developed a small game similar to WeChat's Jump One Jump, ? Pouncing on Xiaoming? ,? Users play the game while receiving a small gift of 5 yuan.?
Soon, this game formed a viral spread in the circle of friends, just two days, the number of participants more than 200,000 people.
So on and so forth, the registered users smoothly exceeded 1 million.
On August 12, 2015, he participated in the recording of Youku's summer program "The 90s who know the most about gifts", which had more than 1.78 million hits in two days, and reached 3 million readers a week later.
In September of that year, Wen Chenghui participated in Beijing Satellite Television's "I am a speaker" to tell the story of his own entrepreneurship, and that night? Gift said? The number of fans skyrocketed by 300,000 people.
6 months later in 2016, the gift said more than 10 million users, the transaction amount reached 1 billion.
? When signing the three words of Wen Chenghui, even after completing the B round of financing of 30 million dollars, at that moment, I lamented that my signature was worth so much money for the first time!!!?
Wen Chenghui got the B round of financing so emotional.
? Why are you willing to invest in me?
? We think you have the potential to become the post-1990s Jack Ma, we are willing to bet on you and accompany you!!!?
Since then, Wen Chenghui has had the title of "90s Jack Ma".
Moving forward in the midst of skepticism
However, after entering 2017, the gift said that the news of layoffs was rumored.
Some people said it was a strategic deviation, and that Gift said was a Taobao portal and lacked its own products.
Some say that gifts are pseudo-needs, lack of customized artifacts, and are unlikely to go long.
Others say that user demand is too narrow!
Wen Chenghui responded, ? The essence of entrepreneurship is that good people want to make more money, not a haven for the mediocre.?
This is actually not his first layoffs, the early stage of the venture, Wen Chenghui had cut the team down to only 4 people.
? As long as the judgment that this business is no prospect, immediately cut, without hesitation. The company's bullets are fewer again, and the youth of his colleagues is wasted.
?Post-90s are not like post-80s and post-70s, who join a company to be loyal to the boss, or to be supported by the boss for the rest of their life.
But it's an indisputable fact that startup costs are getting higher and traffic is getting more expensive because BAT intercepts almost all the traffic.
Just as Wen Chenghui is expanding in a big way, Netflix and WeChat public number are also attacking the city in a big way.
A go style, a go entertainment, casually a good article is 100,000 + reading, that is the traffic, that is publicity ah.
Learning from the bitter experience, Wen Chenghui began to build his own brand, he ran through the factories in Jiangsu, Zhejiang and South China, ? to integrate high-quality factories to make some more suitable gifts for people.?
Since then, more than 16% of the platform of the gift said is self-branded.
In May 2017, the snack gift box brand launched? Poetry of Flavor? , had more than $10 million in sales in just five months.
In June 2017, Wen Chenghui opened his first offline brick-and-mortar store on a commercial street in Baiyunshan, focusing on targeting the surrounding college student population.
In early 2018, Wen Chenghui emphasized WeChat marketing.
In February this year, the internal testing of small programs began,? Along the operation method of WeChat red packets, the difference is that the red packets are not cash but gifts.?
Official data reveals that the gift said that the small program already has 3,000 high-end users and more than 500,000 mass users, with a monthly retention rate of 26%.
? Going for the next wave is too much stronger than killing directly into the red sea, although not necessarily how powerful, but it is always a company that is valuable to society.?
