In addition to these dazzling commonalities, they have a less common denominator, all originating in garages. Steve Jobs, or Walt, are starting from the cramped spaces of the garage and finally on the road to success. "We are China's ' garage business '," said Liuyu, 27, who began his career in a shabby apartment. This old residential building 60 square meters apartment, let Liuyu "365 translation" almost not recruit candidates. But in just two years, the "garage" has become a history, Liuyu's entrepreneurial team got the angel funds and "Zhongguancun" funding. They have moved to the Asian Games Village a set of 250 square meters of commercial and residential apartments, and soon they will move into larger office space. America's garage business is Silicon Valley, and China's garage startup is successful in Zhongguancun. The legend of the budding "garage startup" has been rolling in the heart all the biographer's life in the company's founder, Steve Jobs, was inseparable from a garage in California. In American culture, garages seem to have always been a man's space. From an early age, boys followed their father in the garage, fiddling with various tools. Liuyu, who was born in Beijing in 1986, spent his childhood with cruise ships, pigeon whistles and Arctic soda in the North Sea, without any concept of the garage.

Although the cause of small achievements, but "garage business" legend, has been in Liuyu heart tumbling, working, not his ideal, he wants to do a point of his career. Broken ice to do like McDonald's to do translation, standardization, modernization of the March 2011, and friends, in the revival Gate of a 60 square meters of shabby apartment, Liuyu began to start a business. What he wants to do is to use the Internet Translation Service, "365 translation" is the website that he provides the service. "Our entrepreneurial impulses come from a love of the Internet", a world-changing person like Steve Jobs, a common dream of the Liuyu internet generation. With the understanding of the Internet and translation, Liuyu that the translation should also come to the era of electrical business. "Traditional translation, like a small restaurant, and we imagine doing the same as McDonald's translation, standardization, modernization, and provide better service." "In the dark of the corridor, the applicant was" small broken house "scare back Liuyu his career as a" service provider "," as a provider of services, we do not shoulder the huge cost of goods, service electric business margin is very healthy, isThe traditional 1% to 3% of the profit margin of several times; and, because we sell services, not merchandise, we have neither a huge cost of warehousing systems, nor need to operate, heavy Labor logistics team. With the growing sophistication of the domestic Internet process, more and more companies and individuals already familiar with online shopping will accept and embrace the way of online procurement services, and we will be the beneficiaries of this trend. "In view of the characteristics of the" service Electric Business ", Liuyu in the" Small Broken House "in the two computers, pulled a root network cable, then started. Business is good, staff start not enough, Liuyu ready to expand the team, recruitment. But a lot of candidates, the "little Broken House" scare away. "We are the old neighborhood, the corridor is dark, but also plastered with medical ads, especially girls, dare not enter." "The first few months of suffering, we get the wages are 0 forced helpless, Liuyu apply to the location in cafes, fast food restaurants, only to recruit enough manpower." As a result, 6 of the average age of 26-year-old Young, together began the night and night buried rejoined. Tired, lying on the computer table sleep, hungry, lightly two lunch box. Even frugally, "365 translation" or encountered a capital problem, the first few months, including Liuyu, everyone got the wages are 0. "Not to buy the equipment, the meal will cost a lot." Although everyone is otaku, can eat a little bit ah, daily consumption is really big. The most difficult time, the amount of money left in hand, less than 100,000. "But 365 translation" professional, fast and innovative service model, let it quickly in the dead traditional translation market to play a piece of heaven and earth. When earning the first 1 million, Liuyu and the start-up partners, together to the restaurant, a good meal. The rise of the peer formed a shock, so that received a threat phone online orders, pay, translation, receipt--complete translation business, all procedures do not need face-to-face communication, only need to rely on the electricity business platform. "365 translation" in terms of service or price, the traditional translation of the impact, so that Liuyu also received a threatening phone from the peer. But this did not stop "365 translation" to tens the turnover. Now, "365 translations" for the Asian Development Bank, Hewlett-Packard (China) Limited, the Chinese film Group and other well-known enterprises to provide translation services.
