Hefei's "flower armor brother" suddenly became popular and frightened to stop stalls for a day Since childhood, he loved to cook and dreamed of opening a restaurant

According to the Hefei Evening News, Li Haiyang did not expect that the "passers-by" video of his own stall fried flower nails suddenly became popular on the Internet, which made him a little uncomfortable for a while. The young face with a height of 1.9 meters makes him very conspicuous in the snack street, white clothes and black hats, and he is skillfully stir-fried with flower nails with his head down. "I don't want to be an influencer, and I don't plan to sign up for an influencer company. Now I want to sell more flower nails and save money to open my own small restaurant. ”

The sudden popularity of the Internet scared him to stop for a day

In less than two hours, Li Haiyang's flower armor was sold out. In front of the empty pot, there are still long queues of customers.

Apologizing to the guests one by one, he packed up his stalls, mounted his tricycle, and honked his horn to drive the crowd away until he disappeared.

"In fact, I was very scared, and my hands were shaking when I fried the flower nails." On the evening of September 24, Li Haiyang took several detours after closing his stalls, avoiding the crowds and meeting with reporters at a fast food restaurant with few people.

The sudden popularity made Li Haiyang very uncomfortable. This stems from the fact that on the evening of September 22, Li Haiyang posted a video of himself frying flower nails from the perspective of passers-by on Douyin. Because of its handsome appearance, it exploded overnight. "A lot of people say I'm hyped up by the team, but it's really not." Li Haiyang said that the girl who passed by took his video and felt handsome, so she added WeChat and sent it to him. "I posted it on Douyin, and it was only used as a life record."

When he woke up the next day, Li Haiyang's mobile phone was "bombed". Open Douyin, is tens of thousands of likes and comments, "Where to sell flower nails?" I'll go! The message full of praise for his appearance caught him off guard. That night, Li Haiyang's flower nail stall became the most popular place in the snack street.

After closing the stalls, there were even people who claimed to be MCN agencies, chasing him all the way to his residence and signing a contract with him. Li Haiyang was frightened and even stopped for a day. He asked his family for help, and his sister, who was far away in Shenzhen, rushed the earliest plane to Hefei to accompany him to adjust his mentality.

Li Haiyang's sister said that she took a few days off to accompany him out of the stall. "He was originally timid, and when he first started his business, he would talk to customers for a couple of words, and now he is fully armed when he goes out, and he does not dare to talk to people." The sister told reporters that their hometown is in Fuyang, and Li Haiyang stayed in Hefei directly after graduation because he studied in Hefei. "He said Hefei is a big city and is friendly to young people with dreams."

After graduation, choose to cook, and then open a restaurant

In the face of popularity, trepidation and excitement coexist. Talking about the recent business, Li Haiyang was very happy: "Before, I could only earn 80 yuan a night, and now I can sell every day of the nails." ”

Although thanks to the traffic, Li Haiyang said that he does not want to be dominated by the traffic.

"A lot of people want to sign me as an influencer, and I know it's all short-lived. Traffic, like luck, doesn't know when it will stop abruptly. Making quick bucks may be easier than starting a business, but I don't want to. When he was in elementary school, Li Haiyang began to think about cooking vegetables, and the first dish he successfully made was braised chicken. He remembers that he had a whim and sprinkled some sugar in the dish, which was well received by his family. "Cooking was my talent, and I thought, when I grow up, I'm going to open a restaurant."

After graduating from high school, Li Haiyang decisively chose to major in cooking, specializing in Chinese food. His family also knew his desire to open a restaurant and offered to fund him to start a business, but Li Haiyang refused. "We are an ordinary family, there is a risk of failure in starting a business, and the money of our parents is too careless, so we want to set up a stall and accumulate original funds."

At the beginning of the business, Li Haiyang also hit the wall several times. For example, on the first day of setting up the stall, he prepared a large number of ingredients, fried rice, stir-fried vegetables and everything was sold, and only the fried flower nails could be sold; for example, ten minutes late, the stall was occupied; for example, the packaging was not good, and the guests were impatient.

After closing the stalls in recent days, Li Haiyang will hold a live broadcast to persuade everyone to consume rationally and chat with netizens about their dreams. In the face of praise, temptation and even suspicion, he told himself to "stabilize the mentality, seize the opportunity, and do things steadily."

"When I open a restaurant, the kitchen must be big enough for me to reach out and cook well." Speaking of future vision, the shy Li Haiyang opened his heart. (Hefei Newspaper All-Media Reporter Liu Xiaorong/Wen Wang Hao/Photo)
