Speaking of dou liguo, a courier brother, more people see the countless labels on his body.
When Alibaba was listed, it was one of the eight bell ringers in the United States; the primary school graduation courier brother who pked out peking university high-talent students in the knowledge quiz program; the bullish courier brother who drove a Mercedes-Benz to send a courier...
In the face of these labels, in fact, Dou Liguo prefers the public welfare person to express the little brother Dou Tease
1, no high education, but willing to use their brains, willing to endure hardships
In 1975, Dou Liguo was born in Paoshantun, Siping City, Jilin Province. If he accepted his fate, perhaps Dou Liguo would be like his father, and he would live a life of facing the loess with his back to the sky.
Dou Liguo did not want to be trapped in a small mountain village like his father. However, Dou Liguo's academic performance was not good, he only dropped out of school after reading until the second year of junior high school, and he worked everywhere.
In 1996, Dou Liguo, who was in his 20s, decided to go to the big city to look for opportunities, and he also joined the ranks of the North Drift. However, Dou Liguo had no culture and no skills. He had to work as a security guard in a restaurant.
At that time, Dou Liguo was a young man, and he looked at the waitresses of the hotel, all of whom were young and beautiful little girls. He set himself a goal, to find a waiter to be his daughter-in-law.
But after a period of observation, Dou Liguo found that these waitresses did not pay much attention to the security guards, and they preferred a skilled chef.
Dou Liguo knew that if he wanted to fulfill his dream and find his daughter-in-law, he would make himself a chef.
People always say, "Opportunities are always reserved for people who have dreams and are down-to-earth." "Dou Liguo really waited for the opportunity.
One day, it was raining heavily, and many customers who had come to eat were stopped in the car. After Dou Liguo saw it, he took a big umbrella and ran to the rain to pick up guests.
In order not to let the guests get rain, Dou Liguo almost completely covered the umbrella on the side of the guests, and Dou Liguo soon drenched into the soup chicken.
This incident just let the owner of the store see it, and he was touched by Dou Liguo's serious attitude towards work. He asked Dou Liguo if he let him pick, what would he want to do?
Dou Liguo became a helper cook as he wished, and he really said that within two years, he really found a waiter to be his daughter-in-law.
2. In order not to let his wife and children suffer hardships, work hard to be strong
With a wife and a home, the burden on my shoulders is heavier. Dou Liguo also created his own business, but the business of the small shop was not sluggish.
In 2008, Dou Liguo and his wife chose the express delivery industry. Because it is a piece-rate wage, the recruitment threshold is not high. At that time, they and their children lived in a rented 7 square meter house, and the only furniture was a large bed that they had picked up.
Dou Liguo said: "The days during that time were really difficult, and children who could eat a chicken leg were happy like the New Year." I thought, I am a big man, can't my wife and children follow me to suffer.
I told my daughter-in-law, you get me money, I'm going to print a hundred boxes of business cards, and I'm going to print ten thousand small ads. ”
Dou Liguo later recalled that his wife really believed in herself, and to know that these prints would cost 2,000 yuan, which was equivalent to three months' rent.
Although her wife felt pain in her flesh at that time, she still printed a hundred boxes of business cards and 10,000 small advertisements for Dou Liguo.
Since then, Dou Liguo has been holding a business card to hand out every day. I didn't expect to see the money back the day before.
After a customer took the business card, he contacted Dou Liguo by phone to send a message. That one piece earned 8 yuan. Dou Liguo was energetic this time, and this single earned back half a box of business card money. This business card and the small advertisement sent the value too.
Subsequently, Dou Liguo also improved the business card. The phone of a nearby restaurant for fast food was printed on the back of the business card, which greatly increased the retention of the business card.
In this way, the wife was pleasantly surprised to find out in the first month that their courier income exceeded 10,000. This also dou liguo more attentive to run their own express delivery business.
Dou Liguo will also send peace fruits to customers at Christmas. During the Spring Festival, tell customers not to close during the Spring Festival. He has been carefully running his work and running his own life.
Dou Liguo also really realized that he did not let his wife and children suffer with him, and his express delivery business became more and more prosperous.
3. Successfully counterattacked, earning 2.6 million yuan in 5 years
Dou Liguo saw that he had found the right way, and he worked harder. His idea of making money is actually very simple. It is to let the wife and children have a good life, and have money to support the elderly in the family.
From 2008 to 2013, Dou Liguo earned 2.6 million yuan. He bought a 150-square-meter house in his hometown, and as the business continued to expand, he later bought himself his first car.
At that time, Dou Liguo thought that he had time to take the old man out for a walk. So he bought a Mercedes-Benz SUV, and later many customers called him a courier brother who drove a Mercedes-Benz.
But in 2010, a customer Dou Liguo knew took him to a public welfare event to deliver food. This activity changed Dou Liguo's mind, and Dou Liguo seemed to see the mountain village people like his father, and he wanted to help them.
After so many years of hard work, Dou Liguo knows the importance of knowledge to a person. He began collecting books, clothes, and then sending them to Liangshan, Sichuan, and other places.
Dou Liguo believed that he did not have the money to build the Dao experience and could not let them out, so he had to send them books and let them find a way out in the world of books.
After years of hard work, Dou Liguo knows the importance of learning for a person. It is precisely in continuous learning that he has found his own direction.
In 2014, Dou Liguo participated in "One Stop to the End" and defeated Peking University Gao Caisheng, making him famous in one battle. In September of the same year, Dou Liguo was invited by Alibaba Group to participate in Alibaba's listing in the United States as one of the eight bell ringers.
Just like Dou Liguo said, when he received the call, he thought it was a fraud group. Until his own company called again to inform, Dou Liaoguo also asked people sincerely, and went to manage the meal, and the ticket was not. And when he returned from the United States, he immediately changed into his overalls for delivering couriers and returned to work.
Write at the end:
Some people say: "Take your time, be down-to-earth, what you want, society will give you." ”
Dou Liguo used his own personal experience to tell us that being a real person and doing things in a down-to-earth manner will naturally bring good luck.
