A young man was riding on a train. As the train drove through countless uninhabited mountains and fields, people looked out of their windows, bored.
The train slowed down to make a turn, and a simple bungalow came into view. The passengers were attracted by this break in monotony, and some people even started to wonder who lived there.
The young man’s interest was also piqued. When he booked his return trip on the same train, he exited the train car before his actual stop and went to find the house.
The owner of the house greeted him and told him that trains passed by his place every day and the noise was unbearable. He had always wanted to sell the house at a low price, but no one had taken any interest in it for many years.
The young man was able to buy this bungalow for 30,000 yuan. He felt that since this house was just around the corner, and the trains would slow down when passing by, it would be a good place to put up advertisements. The passengers would be certain to stare at something that wasn’t a meadow or a hill.
He wasted no time in contacting big companies and promoting this excellent advertising wall. Later, Coca-Cola took a fancy to this wall and paid the young man 180,000 yuan for three years to rent the place.
Discovery can be a door to success, and there are many “turns” in life waiting for us to explore!
[是該轉彎了]
拐彎處的發現!
文/佚名
有一位年輕人正搭著火車,當火車行駛在杳無人煙,景色單調的山野之中,人們無聊地看著窗外。
前面有一個拐彎,火車減速,一座簡陋的平房進入了乘客的視野,這時乘客們都被這個特別的景象吸引住了,甚至有人開始討論了起來。
年輕人靈光一閃,返回時,他提前下了車,找到了那座房子。
主人告訴他,每天火車都要從門前經過,噪音讓人受不了,一直想以低價賣掉房子,但多年來一直無人問津。
不久,年輕人用3萬元買下這座平房,他覺得這個房子剛好在拐彎處,火車經過這裡都會減速,無聊的乘客一看到這座房子就會精神一振,用來放廣告再適合不過了。
所以,他開始和大公司聯繫,推薦這面極好的廣告牆,後來可口可樂看中這道牆,3年租期,支付给年輕人18萬元租金。
發現就是成功之門,生命中也有許多「拐彎處」等待我們去挖掘!
註:不是路已走到盡頭,而是該轉彎了!
只是不要讓自己一直的陷在痛苦的深淵中,生命中總有挫敗,那不是盡頭,只是在提醒你,該轉彎了!
