"Anonymous entrepreneur" is a weekly series launched by PandoDaily, a foreign tech blogger, from first-hand experience of start-up founders and investors in the start-up and investment process. This issue is translated as follows: Mr. Founder, founder, I want to tell you this is the following things, this is the real life of the entrepreneur!—— you need to work all night long, you will forget the time, when you finish the work at hand, sleep for eight hours, you might find out that it is dark. It took you a week to send 150 personal emails in person, only to receive 5 responses. At some point, you'll find that you can't dig a regular developer, because your product is based on the Ruby on Rails development. You put a lot of cost into your website to make sure it doesn't crash, but it turns out that there are only 300 independent visits and only 2 registered users. You spent countless hours researching the market, looking for a glimmer of hope in the investment roadshow, but none of the meetings went well. You spent four hours writing a blog post, hoping to be able to log on to Hacker News's home page, and get the top off in 10 minutes. In order to do the investment Roadshow, you took two weeks to prepare carefully, and the result was screwed up in the first minute. You give investors a very good impression, that the financing is not a problem, but finally received an email, they really like you, but there is a slight conflict with the concept of investors. "You rented a company for the first time and found out you probably couldn't afford the rent because of cam, you might yell, what's a damn cam?" When you get an investor's money for the first time, you'll be very excited, but then you'll say, "Oh, my God, I didn't do anything." If you don't check your email in time after you get up, make sure you're back in the past two days. After you have met with your lawyer for one months, you will certainly feel that you are particularly secure and have a special heart. But if you see a lawyer's fee, you'll whisper that you need a lawyer. Every time you send a monthly report to an investor, it takes one hours to rack your brains and try to weave some positive crap out of it. For a moment, you will feel that you should not and good friends to start a business partnership. One day, when you are lining up to buy coffee, you suddenly feel that you do not want to join the science and technology industry, but also open a coffee shop, there are customers, and income. One day, you're going to be asked by one of your most hated questions about whether what you're doing is really worth it. For a moment, you will realize that you are the luckiest person on Earth, because you are a damn entrepreneur. Take a bottle of Erguotou, dear entrepreneurs, a drunken solution thousand sorrow.
