May 10, 2014, the IDG Capital and pioneering state jointly held the IDG Campus Entrepreneurship Competition, Huazhong University of Hust lectures. The campus entrepreneurship competition is facing all the undergraduate and graduate students, aiming at excavating the talented developers and technical geeks on campus. Face Meng CEO Guo Lei a keynote speech at the meeting, telling his entrepreneurial story. He felt that the experience of entrepreneurship is very wonderful, even if sometimes very bitter, others do not understand, but very happy, because it is to follow their inner feelings. He said: "Your heart is the most understand you, when you insist on doing it, God will not treat you." "The following text is Guo Lei's speech excerpts, without my review: I graduated in 2011, now just graduated three years." I have some small partners just at the scene, now he is five, just have a chance to meet, not even four years to see, I feel very good. I am a mechanical school design graduate, you are really very good, because you are very satisfied with the two of entrepreneurial conditions. The first one, the next week Exam week also come to participate in activities, you are learning slag. You do not follow the rules of the school to do things, as well as their own judgment, which is very good quality, I am also a learning slag. The second one, rain today, we come all rain and shine, very can endure hardship. I am sure that the people who are there will also appear to be very good players behind the game. I now mainly share two stories, one is my university to participate in the entrepreneurial competition story, the other is I come out to work after the story of entrepreneurship. The story of college entrepreneurship is about my high school life. I want to be as cool as my idol, I summarize three experiences: first, the study is poor, otherwise not handsome; second, must have a girlfriend more, so I have five girlfriends in high school; third, must have the Brotherhood, the occasional fight, so I was in high school two times, and later was left to check the school. At that time is the senior three, the headteacher said not so, you are hopeless. At that time I was very guilty, want to drop out, the family said it doesn't matter, fighting won a very powerful, I am very moved, said to do things to repay the family, so then very hard to learn, from learning Slag became Couba, the college entrance examination first to the Huazhong University of Science and Education. In Huazhong University of Science and Engineering, I quickly became a learning slag, I do not like my major, for this reason I wrote a letter to the class, now think it is silly. I was the monitor in freshman, and the students are very close, then I look for the things I like. I did not think of this thing although it is cool to write, not to do their own professional, but also have a lot of benefits, the teacher regardless of you, the students understand you, help you roll call, you have a lot of time to participate in many student organizations of the entrepreneurial competition. But very painful is difficult to graduate, graduation, the elective course is not full, so I was the last one to get a degree certificate. I think if I did not get the diploma, now may be a more smooth financing, they all like to vote did not graduate smoothly. It depends on how you do it, I did not study that time, in fact, did not empty, did two things. First, to join the association, and exchange with foreign students, I teach Chinese, they teach English, make friends with each other, I became President of this association. But our association's people English is especially good, every time someone joins our association to ask me, speaks English not good may not join? I didn't have a level four, I said I could. I met a lot of foreign friends, and they told me a lot of different values. Speaking of entrepreneurship here, there is a (entrepreneurial) before the Challenge Cup entrepreneurial competition, he told his experience, I feel like there is a Buddha behind him, I followed his footsteps to participate in an entrepreneurial competition. This entrepreneurial competition is a public entrepreneurship competition, helping people in need, helping them earn money, and then you can improve your entrepreneurial skills through this competition. When I was alone, I wanted to get some people to come in, so I posted flyers and I got my first very good little partner in a booth. Then our people slowly more and more, we in this small partner's home to build a studio, we put the banner of entrepreneurship hanging on the wall, where I took off the heel of people talk about things. One day, his mother came back, we were in class, his mother saw a banner on the wall, a lot of leaflets, she and her son called to say that there seems to be a cult in our home, he said it is our entrepreneurial team. Then his mother backed us up and took the room to the end of the race. For a whole year, the whole business is not so easy, when the most difficult time every night two o'clock clock to sleep, after lights out to borrow classmate notebook dry two hours, six o'clock in the morning get up. There are a lot of bitterness, the most bitter period of time is a person in the McDonald's inside bitter, I and small partners to call, I said too bitter. At that time I felt that this thing had a little perseverance. Later, I feel that if I give up this thing, the main is no face to see them, at that time they fooled in, later too humiliating, no high school so handsome feeling, I want to forget, teeth to do down. After finishing the race to the end. Go to Chengdu to participate in this game, when grading, two teams, the judges gave the same points, they do not know how to decide who wins, all of us are anxious to publish the results. On the last stage a TCL executive said the winning team is Huazhong University of Hust, we all cheered up, many girls are crying, I borrowed them on my shoulder. The biggest harvest is the 12 people who started the business is my very good friend, recall this experience is also very good. In addition I harvested two good base friends, when a base friend girlfriend said that we two people together more time than they together. After the start of this period of time, I was very fascinated by the Internet in junior three, maybe two or three people can do a very good product, and then millions can be used, and in the world's small partners through the Internet can be used, I feel very fulfilling. I was very want to go to Tencent, think Tencent is a good internet company, very want to go inside to learn, so very hard to learn some knowledge of the Internet. In the search for Tencent internship, actually internship did not want me, I did not find an internship. A whole summer vacation two months, I was at home, read some Internet books every day, and learn something that interests you. At that time I was the only one who did not find an internship, my mother is very anxious to say that drag relationship to get a factory workers, open a proof, I said do not need to do some fun things. September that year, Tencent came to recruit, I did not pass the interview, I have the cheek to go to the interview, they feel good, they walked all the way to Tencent. In Tencent, there's no imagination. This work experience gives me the idea that there is not a group of people who really like to do a very like thing, so this experience made me quickly decide to resign and come out to do something I am interested in, I resigned early last year. I am a cartoon mystery, I see the King of the sea every day, we did the sea thief Wang inside the phone worms, we three months time to build up the line. At that time to find a small partner is not easy, only I a full-time, the other are part-time, they come over the weekend, I usually are a person, particularly lonely. In order to save costs, I basically do not go out of the house 500 meters away, so the province transportation. At that time there is a small partner, I with him at home cooking, 6.5 yuan of rice two people eat, than the outside to eat cheaper, so every day at home he cooks, I wash the dishes, my weight dropped to 100 kg, mother very distressed. We started the room, very small, three computers. I was using a chassis to top the computer, I sat on the bed, so I spent half a year, the first product finally online. Called micro-letter expression said that 100 to 200 people a day to download, we have another idea, want to continue to do now face Meng. Then began to bite the bullet to continue to do the second product. At that time there is one thing I particularly want to give up, is the father had a heart attack, I went back, the father was hospitalized, feel that they did not do anything very sorry, face, or did not say to bring some surprises to my father back, very want to say to go back to work, so that they feel Later, my father encouraged me, my father also had a pioneering experience, but also when the civil service experience, he felt that entrepreneurship is his life unforgettable memories, he also regretted not adhere to entrepreneurship. He said he should stick to it and I went on with it. Our products in October on the line, about a week after 360 to call us, said our products are good, or to provide proof that this product is genuine, to help us recommend. We tried to provide some proof that we are a genuine software, a week after 360 of the recommendation is indeed on the. Not long after, the millet also began to recommend, Apple also began to recommend, 91 assistants also began to recommend, Shanghai subway station can see the sign of the face, we feel this thing may be a period of ignition. Because the first product has been done for a long time only 10,000 downloads, this time we aim to do 100,000 of the download, we would like 100,000 of the download, Android 50,000, iOS 50,000, three months refueling. Result two weeks time, we have 100,000 download conquer, now have millions of users. See people use this product, will feel proud, or think of their own productionThe product has many people to use the feeling, really is very good. We wanted to make it bigger, so we found some investment. I met Sun Liang at an event and voted for him. I didn't hold much hope. Then he called me about one hours later, asked me to meet him, and we were at KFC. He soon met for the second time, a partner at IDG, who had worked in New Oriental for seven years. I found some information on the Internet, I think it is a serious partner, at that time, the association is not like the interview when some of the interviewer's feelings, the result of their meeting at the bar, I think there will be no unspoken rules. Later, when everyone was drinking and chatting, the first time they saw our products, I talked to them about the idea of a lot of products and the future, they agreed, so soon determined the investment intention. Then I met with steady, I am very excited, feel like the lottery, is very happy feeling, very excited. At that time steady spoke to me, I can not hear clearly, I spoke a lot of myself, home, I have been sleepless, very happy, until dawn. Later every day to get up and sleep Brush company bank account, money has not arrived, looking at it from 0 to a lot of 0, feel very happy, if replaced by hot noodles, you can circle a few laps. I would like to tell you that the main point is that the experience of entrepreneurship is really wonderful, I was also listening to the seniors, I would like to try. I really feel very happy after starting a business, although sometimes very bitter, although sometimes their own decisions to make others feel a little silly, why quit work, why not engage in their own professional? I think it is the last word, to see what you thought at that time, if you want to go abroad, go abroad, if very much want to study, study, if the heart very want to start a business, follow their inner feelings to go. Because your heart is the most understand you, when you insist on doing it, God will not treat you, thank you.
