Wandering the world of film and television begins with the golden years

When Li Hao founded HaoTuan, he wanted to boost employee morale. 🌷🍧 ➅9s𝔥ᑌ𝐗.Ⓒ𝓸𝕄 🐊♨Google search reading

He would hold internal company meetings every few days to share his experiences, and each time he would give a speech. Over time, his speaking skills improved rapidly.

Otherwise, why would every entrepreneur be so eloquent?

That's all there is to it; it's just a matter of familiarity with the language.

He even had the leisure to tease Ye Jinyan before going on stage, before calmly getting up and walking onto the stage.

Li Haoyu is handsome and tall, with a calm and composed demeanor. Most importantly, he is so young, which makes him stand out among the group of middle-aged and elderly entrepreneurs.

As soon as he stepped onto the stage, he was greeted with applause, including enthusiastic cheers from the female university students in the audience.

Li Haoyu walked to the center of the stage and explained before opening the PPT, "Actually, I'm nothing special. The media calls me a genius. But that's not true. Starting a business is seven parts luck and three parts hard work."

"When luck comes, if you don't work hard, it's just luck pushing you forward a bit, and then it stops. But if you work hard, luck might just carry you soaring high..."

"But if you don't have that luck, you might just keep running frantically on the ground, getting slower and slower and heavier as you go."

"So I advise everyone not to fantasize about other people's hardships to move yourself. Not only is it meaningless, but it also makes you look very ignorant."

Nowadays, success studies are very popular and have a large market, but more and more people are beginning to feel disgusted by the rhetoric of success studies.

Li Haoyu's words seemed somewhat inappropriate, even unconventional, for this formal occasion, yet they were so pleasing to the ear that no one present could ignore them.

Sure enough, the discussion from the audience immediately began.

Li Haoyu ignored him and continued speaking.

"Before I begin my speech, I want to clarify one thing: this only represents my personal opinion. Those who disagree are free to keep their own views, and those who agree do not need to imitate me."

"On a side note, success is actually very difficult to replicate, and replicating success is just a trap of the halo effect."

"Ordinary people are content with their old ways, while scholars are immersed in what they have heard. We often get stuck in the knowledge we are familiar with and can't break free, while only by breaking with convention and innovating can we increase the chances of success."

Li Haoyu surveyed the students below the stage with an air of authority.

He saw that the discussion below the stage had stopped.

He nodded to himself and continued, "Then I will begin my speech."

"Everyone here is either a college student or a successful entrepreneur, so today I'm going to talk to you about how to go from being a college student to an entrepreneur."

Although Li Haoyu was disdainful of the previous entrepreneurs' self-praise of their companies, he still felt that praise had to be done skillfully; how many people would actually listen to something so blunt?

Li Haoyu boasted that the upcoming IPO of the group-buying platform was quite necessary. However, he didn't want to follow the usual path; he wanted to create something unique and inspire creativity.

Li Haoyu said calmly, "I don't want to talk about good tours today, because good tours are already too far out of reach for you."

"HaoTuan has long since become a behemoth of a company. It has even become the hegemon in the group-buying industry and a classic case study analyzed by countless venture capital firms."

"I'd like to talk about the problems college students encounter when starting their own businesses."

"Whether a startup succeeds or not is largely a matter of probability." Take buying a house, for example; you might apply to 100 clients, but it's unlikely you'll close a deal with even one.

"But if a customer who's just browsing happens to be served and makes a purchase while you're taking a sip of water, does that mean your colleague is more capable?"

"No...it's mostly luck."

.........

At the entrance to the conference room, Shen Manyu led Zhu Suosuo in.

This was Li Haoyu's arrangement, and Shen Manyu couldn't understand it either.

It's just a regular speech, isn't it? Was it really necessary to make such a fuss and have her bring Zhu Suosuo along? Does the boss really think he can fool a girl like Zhu Suosuo with just one speech?

Li Haoyu continued, "Starting a business is indeed a bastard. It treats everything like straw dogs; it has no emotions, it only operates on the law of large numbers."

As soon as Li Haoyu uttered the vulgarity, a few scattered laughs erupted from the audience.

Li Haoyu ignored him and continued, "It's a feeling that some people never succeed in their entire lives."

"Students who can sit in the audience and listen to the speech are already outstanding among their peers, but I don't know how many of you will achieve success that is recognized by the general public."

The laughter from the audience immediately ceased upon hearing this.

Li Haoyu continued, "But from another perspective, starting a business is also fair."

"The more you try, the more deals you close; the more mistakes you make, the closer you get to doing it right. As long as you keep increasing the number of samples, you might just stumble upon something by sheer luck. This is the survivor effect."

Li Haoyu switched the PowerPoint presentation and said, "This world is cruel. People always try to control themselves and expect to get the results they want, but often, such efforts are in vain."

"Starting a business is the same. But when you set off full of hope and dreams, you are always caught off guard by all sorts of unexpected events and changes, and you are exhausted from dealing with them."

"So the question is, what is the point of this effort?"

A moment of silence fell over the audience, and the atmosphere in the room plummeted to freezing point.

Even Shen Manyu, who was standing to the side, was secretly surprised. Had the boss gone mad? Even if these were all true, he couldn't just say them so bluntly. Wasn't he just asking for trouble?

Even the female host of the meeting couldn't help but try to salvage the situation, saying, "It is indeed a bold idea, but it's also a way of looking at things from a dialectical perspective."

Li Haoyu thought for a moment, picked up the microphone, and said, "I know, someone must have been cursing me in their heart just now. Anyone can say something sarcastic..."

The students below the stage immediately became agitated.

So you knew that too!

Li Haoyu gestured for silence from the audience and then said, "I am already lucky enough and have enough wealth, but I have also been poor before. I know how hard it is for entrepreneurs to beg and plead for a little bit of funding."

Therefore, I am announcing here that GoodGroup will invest 1000 million yuan to establish a startup fund to help eligible college students who are starting businesses but lack the funds to get started.

The audience was silent.

What kind of tactic is this?

Will it provide 1000 million yuan in start-up capital?

Besides the support from Haotuan Group, is this another 1000 million yuan in startup capital? Are they hallucinating?

Zhu Suosuo, sitting in the audience, was also shocked. Everyone present was stunned by Li Haoyu's words.

That's 1000 million...

Shen Manyu, however, was used to it; it was another of Li Haoyu's usual methods of giving free GG (a form of online manipulation). Even a trivial speech could be perfectly exploited by the boss.

1000 million sounds like a lot, but it's not a huge sum for a good group these days.

Furthermore, the definition of "meeting the conditions" is quite complex.

This isn't entirely up to Li Haoyu; more importantly, someone from the media present will definitely write about this ten million, creating another free and highly topical story.

Shen Manyu looked at Zhu Suosuo, who was standing to the side with a face full of admiration.

Well, he also managed to fool the naive young girl Zhu Suosuo.

The boss is becoming more and more shameless.
