China News Service, September 30. According to Japan's New Overseas Chinese News, in 2020, the new crown pneumonia epidemic will spread.
In the epidemic, many small and medium-sized enterprises have fallen, but some entrepreneurs who are good at observation and thinking have bucked the trend.
In a special period, the story of Wu Shidong, the owner of "Snack Yangzhou" in East Shinjuku, Japan, is of great reference value.
The Japanese government has adopted a "self-prevention" policy to fight the epidemic. The catering industry bears the brunt, and many stores have to close.
Many Chinese business owners shift their focus to developing products suitable for take-out.
The various noodles, stir-fries and stews of "Snack Yangzhou" attract many takeaway orders.
Affected by the epidemic, Indian, Vietnamese, and Japanese cuisines near "Snack Yangzhou" are closed.
However, Wu Shidong managed the "Authentic Lanzhou Ramen" from the store next door, and used the space downstairs for skill training. What is the reason for such a bold investment?
Wu Shidong told such a story.
One day, a friend proposed to eat Lanzhou ramen. Wu Shidong noticed that Tokyo, where "Sapporo ramen," Hakata ramen," and "kitakata ramen" are all over the streets, has few "authentic Lanzhou ramen."
There are so many Chinese in Tokyo, why not open an authentic Lanzhou ramen shop?
Seeing the business opportunities, Wu Shidong just did what he said, while arranging the decoration of the store next door, while looking for a master who mastered the skills of ramen.
It was only then that in Japan, there were very few people who knew Lanzhou ramen skills, and the salary was surprisingly high.
Wu Shidong visited the thatched cottage three times and finally impressed a skilled ramen master with his understanding and knowledge of the catering industry.
The pure beef bone secret recipe produces a refreshing and refreshing ramen soup, and the master with amazing arm strength and skillful skills produces nine types of noodles, from "small" to "big wide", with a variety of colors, flavors and shapes.
Before the outbreak of the epidemic, Wu Shidong had just taken the basement floor, expanded the storefront, and added entertainment items such as karaoke.
After the outbreak, close contact is forbidden and all karaoke shops are temporarily closed.
How to transform this hot potato into benefits has become Wu Shidong's heart.
The epidemic hit, and many Chinese who helped cook in restaurants and cleaned in hotels were unemployed. Wu Shidong thought, using the newly rented basement floor to organize a noodle training class to teach ramen and soup technology to help these compatriots create themselves Isn’t your career very good?
These compatriots who are unable to find high-paying jobs because they are not familiar with Japanese, once they master the technology, raise their income levels and improve their quality of life are just around the corner.
Helping others will benefit you as well. Wu Shidong said that he used to work in Germany and had heard too many stories about Chinese embassies and consulates helping and uniting overseas Chinese. With ears and eyes, he also hopes that he can help as many compatriots in need as possible. (Jiang Feng)
