: Success means making the impossible possible

Author: Fang Yisong

In the Isar River valley in Munich, Germany, it is a vast cotton-growing area. The cotton production here accounts for almost more than half of the total output in Germany, so the related cotton industry is extremely prosperous in the local area. In particular, the production of quilts has almost become the main source of income for the villagers.

Like many private owners, Oston also runs a small quilt processing factory in the local area. However, because the cotton products are very fluffy and space-consuming, transportation and storage have become the most troublesome problem for him: a large warehouse can only stack hundreds of quilts, and a wagon can only transport thousands of quilts. Moreover, due to the increasing transportation cost, he is almost unprofitable. One day, Oston suddenly had a brainwave. If the quilt could be compressed to the minimum, wouldn't it be possible to save and use space to the maximum extent?

As promised, he immediately began to solve the problem of storage and transportation of quilts. First of all, he tried the heavy pressure method, that is, in the process of stacking quilts, iron plates or stones were placed across several quilts. However, this method is only suitable for the goods in the warehouse, and once transported, its weight often exceeds dozens of times that of the quilt. Later, he tried to cross-bind the quilts with ropes, but the effect was still not obvious. Wherever the ropes were not tied, they were still fluffy. Moreover, the quilt after binding, those deep binding marks, also greatly affect its beauty and use effect.

One weekend, Oston went to attend the celebration of a newly-opened local enterprise. The gate was crowded with people and colorful flags were fluttering. In order to set off the atmosphere, the company specially rented a huge inflatable arch from Munich, which is a new thing in the local area and attracted almost everyone's attention. As soon as the auspicious time passed, the workers began to let out the gas in the arch. A huge arch was skillfully folded by the workers in an instant and put into a small backpack. At this time, Oston suddenly came up with inspiration: why don't you try to pump out the excess air in the quilt? In this way, maybe you can put the loose and soft quilt into a small bag?

So, he tried to put the quilt into a thick transparent packaging bag, sealed it, pressed it heavily, and then evacuated the air inside to form a vacuum. Sure enough, after repackaging the vacuum bag, the space is saved most effectively, and the storage and transportation of quilts are greatly facilitated. Once his packaging bag which can extract air was introduced, it quickly won the favor of local cotton farmers, and everyone paid in advance for a large number of reservations, and the demand for packaging bags soon exceeded supply. It can be said that the vacuum bag dug the first bucket of gold for him.

through research, he also found that bacteria could hardly survive in a state of complete hypoxia if all the air in the packaging bag was pumped out. Theoretically, this kind of vacuum bag should also have many functions, such as preservation, moisture-proof, mildew-proof, insect-proof, corrosion-proof and pollution-proof. Therefore, its function is not only limited to the storage and transportation of goods, but also can effectively extend the shelf life and preservation period of products. He saw business opportunities with keen eyes. Later, he sold the cotton field in time and began to develop a comprehensive vacuum packaging machine.

In p>1961, Oston successfully developed the world's first vacuum packaging machine. Due to its outstanding contributions in food, transportation and other fields, this product was quickly accepted by all walks of life. In less than two years, his vacuum products have covered more than 6 countries and regions around the world. This enterprise is the world-famous German Modivik vacuum packaging machine factory.

Many times, if you stick to the routine, you will never be able to innovate. Only by jumping out of the shackles and fetters of thinking, creating demand where there is no demand, and turning the impossible into possibility, is the real success.

When I was young, my father repeatedly warned me never to be a winemaker. Because my grandfather and great-grandfather both made a living in local wineries, they could barely make ends meet on a meager salary. He doesn't want me anywhere near the beer barrel. According to my father's wishes, I studied hard and entered Harvard University with excellent results. In 1971, I became a graduate student of this school, studying both law and business.

in the second year of graduate school, I suddenly realized something. I haven't done anything at all except study. A pressure forced me to think about my career. The future is approaching me, much earlier than I expected.

So at the age of 24, I chose to drop out of school. My parents can't understand what I did. But I strongly feel that a person can't wait until he is 65 to pursue his dream, and he must start to struggle now.

I packed my bags and got on the caravan to Colorado. There, I became a field development training coach. This job suits me very well. I have left my footprints everywhere, from the cliffs outside Seattle to the volcanoes in Mexico, due to the need for a lot of mountaineering and rock climbing.

I never regret taking the time to "discover myself". If a person can take some time out of his life to think about the way to go, then his life will have a different taste. Otherwise, we can only be influenced by other people's opinions.

after three and a half years as a coach, I returned to Harvard to complete my studies. After graduation, I found a well-paid job in Boston Consulting. Although this is a well-known think tank, after working for five years, I feel confused. Is this the job to accompany me until I am 5 years old?

I remember not long ago, when my father was cleaning the attic, he came across some yellow pieces of paper with several ancient beer recipes written on it. He said: "Now beer is basically water, but the surface is a little frothy."

I agree with my father. Americans who don't like to drink domestic beer spend a lot of money on inferior foreign beer. Why can't Americans brew their own fine beer?

I decided to quit my job and become a winemaker. When I tell this message to my father, I hope he will be happy with the revival of traditional beer. However, my father said, "This is the stupidest decision I have ever heard."

In the end, my father gave me full support: when I started the Boston Beer Company, he contributed $4, to help me. With my own savings and the help of my friends, I finally became a beer brewer. That feeling is like rock climbing, free, excited and nervous.

however, as soon as the beer was brewed, I encountered a big problem: how to put it on the market?

wholesalers have said, "Your beer is too expensive, and it's not famous." So I thought about creating a new variety: hand-brewed American beer. In order to get an eye-catching and elegant name, I think hard. In the end, I adopted the name of the brewer and patriot who planned the "Boston Tea Party": samuel adams.

I realize that the only way to make the brand a household name is to sell it on the spot. I put on designer clothes, packed my briefcase with beer and ice packs, and shuttled to various bars.

most bar employees think I work for the tax bureau. But as soon as I opened my briefcase, they immediately became interested. I told my story and invited them to taste it. When I heard the comment that "your story is good and the beer is better", I was filled with emotion and was extremely pleased.

Six weeks later, at the Oktoberfest in the United States, samuel adams Beer won the highest prize in one fell swoop. The rest is all well-known history. I never expected that I would embark on this road, but I really became a winemaker.

My advice to young people is simple: Life is long. Don't make a hasty decision. Life won't plan everything.

I have many notebooks, all kinds of them. Sprouting, sharp, simple and so on. I have a drawer dedicated to storing these books that can be used for writing. Each of these books is so beautiful that I never know what to write to deserve such a unique book. Whenever I decide to write something in a notebook, I always make up my mind. For example, this notebook should keep a diary, and that notebook should copy some beautiful words. But when I open each notebook, I will find that the first few pages are carefully written, and there will be no words until the fifth page. A good notebook, like it is used or not, is put aside and idle.

Assistant Yang once said to me: "When my uncle was doing business in his early years, he read newspapers every day and copied down good jokes. Now in his fifties, he still uses this ancient method. Now he often writes it down in his mobile phone, then goes back to the computer and writes it down with a pen. We should also read some useful newspapers every week and copy down the good content. My uncle can do it, and we will do it from now on. Ten years later, I dare not think about how awesome we are! "

I haven't dreamed of being awesome. I only bought two newspapers, and I put fishbones in one. This is nirvana!

A few days ago, I watched a movie with Mr. A, a film and television marketer. After watching the movie, I ate and drank heartily in the restaurant. Mr. A took a computer and recorded in detail how the various brands in the movie were implanted, which was natural and which was blunt. A jun recorded this information in a form, which has been filled with a lot of film sponsorship information. Obviously, he is accumulating these things. Of course, I won't be stupid enough to worship in front of him. It's an act of self-mutilation. But I will still keep this little detail in my heart silently. I hope that if Mr. A is lucky enough to see this paragraph, he will not be too elated!

I opened the pile of notebooks, and almost every notebook had a little English written on it. So I remembered that when I graduated, HR told me that English was not good, so I began to "paint the wall with shit". Every time it's a storm, it's a little rain. Every time I feel that I can write PPT in English and read English emails, I begin to read gossip at night and sleep late in the morning. Only at the beginning of the month of the annual English Present will we make an English improvement plan in a hurry, at least to improve our spoken English and Present fluently at the conference. Every January, every month, it will be abandoned, and then it will be put to rest! Today, my English is still at the point where PPT and email can barely make do. God knows how proud I would be if I had painted the wall with shit more thoroughly three years ago.

The society we live in is beginning to get quick success and instant benefit, and so is our heart. This society is unwilling to wait for results, so we don't want to wait for ourselves, but like to let ourselves be wrapped up and run. As for where to stand next, it doesn't matter whether you are comfortable or not. What matters is that no matter where you can hide, you can cheat, you can pretend, you can fool, and you think you are comfortable and earn more. Such people are usually envied and greedy by everyone. Our eyes began to become short-sighted and limited, lazy and unscrupulous, and we have long forgotten the meaning of "horse power is known from a distance."

I once wrote a passage: In the first three years of entering the society, everyone should work hard. Because in the first three years, everyone desperately wants to get rid of the hard times, so these three years are the three years when a social person cares least about gains and losses, loves learning the most, wants to socialize the most, and is most easily influenced and moved by education. After these three years, everyone will see through the true appearance of society, such as luck, misery, hopelessness and arachis duranensis. From that moment on, everyone will become more or less eager for quick success and instant benefit, and become not close to their own hearts but driven by money and fame. From this moment on, complaints from the workplace, family resentment, unfair system and imperfect society can slowly disturb our mood. Some people clamor for immigration, others clamour for * * *! Who else can you influence besides disturbing yourself?

I am reminded of Mr. A, who is very arrogant in the film and television marketing circle. I know his past efforts and have seen his fighting in the workplace. I can't envy and hate him at all. If I don't work hard like that, I won't want to get more. There is still some general fairness in this world.

I want too much, so I can't calm down. I feel that the whole world is unfair, and I really want to live in the world of Jesus. Writing here, I think of an inappropriate remark criticizing girls' unrealistic requirements for finding things:

"If you want a boyfriend ... rich, handsome, and good to you, you'd better return your parents to death. Do you think you are Chang 'e ...?"

On the contrary, I think of the opposite sentence. Let's change it. It can look like this:

A person with a brilliant bone can lead a brisk life no matter how noisy the environment and dangerous people flow!
