Chapter 108 Competition



Chapter 108 Competition

In fact, the essence of this matter is competition. It is competition in the Red Sea field, but later generations changed the word, called involution.

It's like you opened a bun shop in the town.

Other steamed bun shops open at six in the morning and close at six in the afternoon. The business hours are fixed throughout the day.

A hard-working man discovered that some people get off work late. When they get off work, if they want to eat steamed buns, there is no place to buy them.

This hard-working man just wanted to stay open for a while, so he closed the shop two hours later than other bun shops.

Sure enough, his measures are still effective. In this way, the business of his bun shop is obviously better than other bun shops, and he can sell many more buns in a day than other bun shops.

When the other steamed bun shop owners saw it, they were unconvinced. They just opened for a few more hours, so they followed this hard-working man's schedule and opened for a few more hours. In this way, these steamed bun shops slowly returned to normal. original level.

But the hard-working bun shop owner had already tasted the benefits and began to increase his business hours. His sales were once again far ahead of others.

Other bun shop owners followed suit, once again catching up with the hard-working man.

In this cycle, instead of increasing their income, the business hours are getting longer and longer, and they are getting more and more tired.

Because those who like to eat steamed buns are always the ones in this town, and there will not be an explosive increase in a short period of time. The demand is fixed, so the total income of these steamed bun shops will not change much.

Overall, the town's economy has not only not gotten better, but has gotten worse.

Because the owners of these steamed bun shops are busy selling steamed buns every day and have no time to travel, consume, or play. The original contributions of these people to other industries are being wasted in the longer and longer business hours.

This is involution.

Of course, the complexity of the real situation is far beyond what a small story can explain.

In fact, when any industry develops to a certain extent, involution will occur, which is inevitable.

Just like the college entrance examination, if the expansion of university enrollment is not considered and only a fixed number of people are admitted every year, the situation of involution will only become more and more serious.

Chu Jianghe thought clearly that before anyone paid attention to the teaching assistant market, they could occupy a favorable position in the teaching assistant market first.

New Oriental, a later generation, started with foreign language training and became a comprehensive education group.

If they get involved in this market so early, their future achievements will not be much worse.

At present, the market for teaching assistants is still a blue ocean field, and it is certain to make money, let alone the huge profits it brings to myself.

In this way, it can also help improve the lives of several classmates in the dormitory. This is Chu Jianghe's ultimate goal of pulling them to become teaching assistants.

Money is important to relive your life, but if you only care about money and ignore the people around you, what's the point of reviving your life.

Chu Jianghe feels that money is just a tool, a tool to make himself and the people around him live a better life.

Although Wang Jianye and the others didn't know how profitable this teaching assistant business was, they vaguely felt that it could be done, and after a moment's thought, they all agreed.

Anyway, they just summarize, come up with test questions, and write essays. These things are not a big deal to them, they are just used to consolidate the knowledge they have learned.

They believe that the most difficult part is the printing and sales parts that Chu Jianghe is responsible for, but these parts have already been taken over by Chu Jianghe.

As Chu Jianghe said at the beginning, they only need to use their brains and don't have to worry about other things, just wait for the money.

Even if they don't make any money in the end, it's just a waste of their brains and nothing to lose. It's always better than putting in effort.

Several people discussed and divided the work, and started taking action the next day.

Early the next morning, Chu Jianghe originally wanted to stay in bed for a while, but was involuntarily dragged to the library of Beijing University by several people in the dormitory.

Chu Jianghe sat sleepily on his seat in the library, watching them working there in boredom.

Feng Yuhui was recording with a notebook, while Wang Jianye and Sun Xiangdong were looking for relevant information.

After finding the relevant information, the three people were busy recording it.

They all let Chu Jianghe's lazy behavior go unchecked. The most difficult work had been assigned to him anyway.

Seeing how powerful these few people were, Chu Jianghe was also infected. He found the familiar "Jin Ping Mei" and once again used his critical eyes to immerse himself in that decadent feudal dynasty period.

Chu Jianghe was busy here, and Ma Liang was not idle either.

Ma Liang, who had received angel round investment, was very high-spirited. He called a few friends with whom he had good relationships and were reliable people, and they were sitting around in a courtyard without a sign.

Nowadays, people doing business are cautious. If you are not an acquaintance, you may not be able to find a place.

Ma Liang slapped a big ball on the table, and said to the boss who came over with a proud look: "If you have any hard dishes, just serve them, and then three bottles of Erguotou."

When he saw the banknotes on the table, the boss's eyes lit up and he said with a smile: "What a coincidence, my relatives in the countryside sent me two chickens. If there are fresh chili peppers, I will stew them for you right away, and then some of my specialty stir-fry dishes. What do you think of it with the pork head that was just braised today?"

Ma Liang looked impatient and waved to the boss: "Look at the arrangements. I'm treating you today, just don't let me lose my rank."

"Come on, just look at it."

The boss agreed and trotted to the kitchen. It was rare for a big customer to come, so he had to wait for him.

Friends here who are familiar with Ma Liang are also a little dumbfounded when they see Ma Liang's generous behavior.

What?

I haven't seen him for a few days, and the old hen has turned into a duck.

Ma Liang, who was originally searching for something, seemed to have changed. Several people speculated that this kid must have some kind of bad luck.

A young man sitting next to Ma Liang saw that Ma Liang wanted to smoke, so he quickly struck a match and came over, lit a cigarette for Ma Liang, and asked the questions that everyone here wanted to ask the most.

"Brother Liang, what have you been busy with recently? If something good happens, don't forget our brothers."

"Easy to say, easy to say."

Ma Liang raised his head and took a long puff of cigarette, feeling very beautiful.

The feeling of making money just now was so great. Brother Chu was right. From now on, the rich will be the boss. Without him showing off to unite, the boss's attitude would immediately change.
