Match We have been unconsciously fading away from us. sight And the 80s college student, Lu Lu, brought it back to Zhengzhou.

Video chat to find matches
It's a coincidence to learn how to sell matches. In seven November, xiao lu In online video chat with a Hongkong friend, Xiao Lu saw a friend polishing a match when he lit his cigarette. Suddenly, the fashionable match made Xiao Lu fascinated. Friends say that many people in Hongkong use this art match. "I didn't expect a box of matches to be so fashionable and exquisite. Intuition told me that such matches will also have a market in Zhengzhou." Xiao Lu said.
After market research, Xiao Lu found that this art match was still missing in Zhengzhou. He found a factory in Chongqing to produce art matches through the Internet, and advanced a lot of goods to try to sell in Zhengzhou. In this way, Xiao Lu, who was still at school, sold matches.

Signing the Zhengzhou agency by borrowing money and training
With the idea of trying to hold it, Xiao Lu entered 100 sets of personality matches and put up a stall in the campus of Zhengzhou University. I didn't expect that a set of personality art matches were sought after by the young people after "15 years ago." Just two nights of stalls, 100 sets of art matches were sold out, making over one thousand yuan.
The success of the first stall let Xiao Lu taste the sweetness of starting a business. "I was full of confidence in matches and felt that I had found the way to start business at once." Xiao Lu said he had identified the project, even if others poured cold water was useless. He borrowed 15 thousand yuan from his mother, ran to Chongqing and entered 3000 matches, and signed the right of agency in Zhengzhou.
In the next few months, Xiao Lu stalls in 27 places, such as flyover, Zhengzhou University, Zhengzhou University of Light Industry and so on. "On the last night of seven years, I spread my stalls on the 27 square flyover, cold and hungry, and I felt like a little match boy." But let little Lv Xinwei do, the stall business is not bad.
In eight years and a month, Xiao Lu rented a berth in the glorious market, and transferred to Denis of University Road in March. "People there are heavy traffic and business is very hot, and the turnover is 6000 yuan a month." Xiao Lu said. Now, there are agents in Nanyang and Luoyang, and sometimes there are thousands of agents buying goods.
In April of this year, Xiao Lu was officially upgraded to the general agent of Henan province.
Passion
The "Lv matches" with the intent to "be king"
Compared with many college students looking for jobs, Xiao Lu should have been very successful. In the nine months he sold the matches, he made 80 thousand yuan. He not only gave the money back to his mother, but also had his flagship store, and became a provincial agent.
After opening the match store, Xiao Lu also had a new train of thought -- personalized custom matches, which is to design the appearance and shape of matches according to the needs of enterprises, or to personally, for example, wedding photos of new people can be printed on matches, and given to relatives and friends at parties. Xiao Lu feels that matches are small, but they have great prospects for development.
Now, Xiao Lu never gave up any chance to sell matches. When talking about matches, they are full of words and streams. The dealers and agents below call him "Lu matches". Xiao Lu would like to have this nickname. He said, "when I was in college, I wanted to be famous. Now I want to be a match king."
Reporter's notes
Passion and positivity are the genes of success.
After 80, Xiao Lu pursued individuality and fashion. The university student who has not yet graduated has successfully made the first step of entrepreneurship. If we must explore the "successful gene", the reporter thinks that one is passion, the other two is positive.
Xiao Lu's favorite saying is: burn yourself rather than curse the darkness. He is active in his actions, and in his words, "can do, do nothing, do" and "dispensable." It was such a character that when he saw the box match in the video chat, he decided to try it. It was such a character that he boldly decided to take the money from his mother to get the agent.
For the match, Xiao Lu had an almost fanatical passion. When he talked about matches, his mouth would remind people of Deguchi Nariaki's Wedding MC. Xiao Lu said he never gave up any chance to sell matches, and the name "Lu matches" is enough to explain Xiao Lu's passion for matches.
Now, Xiao Lu is not satisfied with "Lu matches", but rather a "match king". Let him seize business opportunities and passion will help him succeed.
Maybe this is how character determines life.
