"The world is bustling, all for profit, and the world is bustling, all for profit"

From ancient times to the present, people have been pursuing interests, gathering together for interests, and running around for interests.

But wealth and honor are not so easy to earn. Not only do you have to be separated from your family from time to time, but you may even have to risk your life.

In ancient times, merchants often ran around the world for business. While traveling around, they might encounter robbers one day.

Nowadays, doing business in a war-torn country also requires betting on your own lives at all times.

However, most people who live in peaceful times will not risk going to war-torn countries, and only a very small number of people are willing to take this risk.

There is a young man named Liu Lei in China . He originally worked in a high-tech park in Shenzhen, but in order to make money, he ran to Iraqi , which has been war-torn for many years.

Liu Lei, who bets on his life every day, made more than 3 million yuan in just one year when he was not favored by others.

So, how did he make this money? How did Liu Lei persist in facing the flying artillery fire all day long?

Iraq entrepreneurship

Liu Lei originally had a job with considerable income, traveling back and forth between home and company every day, living a two-point and one-line life, the same as most ordinary people.

However, the outbreak of SARS made Liu Lei feel crisis . He knew that this stable life will be broken one day sooner or later.

So he chose to resign and start his own business, because only by taking the initiative to make changes can he not be too passive in the future.

After resigning, Liu Lei planned to start his own company, but the domestic market was huge and he could not find a suitable direction for a while.

Just when Liu Lei was unsure of his mind, the newspaper news about the war in Iraq gave him inspiration.

Iraq has been in war all year round. Such countries with fire must have great demand for supplies, so there must be more business opportunities there than in China.

However, although there are many business opportunities and more dangers, is doing business in Iraq, where bullets are raging, and it is very likely that you will have money to make money but spend your life. Maybe one day you will lose your life.

After Liu Lei's friends and family learned about his thoughts, they tried their best to dissuade him, but Liu Lei was a stubborn temper and no one could change what he believed.

Besides, I have quit my job, so why not try it out when I have nothing?

After making up his mind, Liu Lei packed his bags and flew to Iraq with a $3,500 startup fund.

When I first arrived in Iraq, Liu Lei was frightened every day. He heard gunshots there every day. The building, which was still intact today, will be bombed into ruins tomorrow.

No one will live easily and freely in such an environment, and Liu Lei will naturally be the same.

, especially when Liu Lei spent almost all the entrepreneurial funds in his hands but still couldn't find the right business opportunity, he became even more anxious.

But since he has arrived, he cannot return to China in shame. After thinking about it, Liu Lei decided to open a restaurant to specialize in Chinese food.

At first, he opened a restaurant near a five-star hotel , because those who can stay in high-end hotels are either rich or noble people, and it is easier to make money from them than from the poor.

, especially if there are no Chinese restaurants in the local area, and those who are tired of eating local delicacies nearby will definitely want to try it out.

Although the restaurant encountered a little difficulty when it first opened, because the guests staying in a nearby hotel had irregular working hours and would rush to the next destination without staying for long, so the traffic of the restaurant was not large.

Until a big boss placed a large order to serve 40 people twice a week, his store's business got better and finally got funds to account.

"make money" of 3 million in a year

However, the money that Liu Lei earned at that time was not considered a big money, and relying on a big order alone is not a long-term solution. If one day people don't order food, the restaurant will have to close.

In order not to get yourself in a passive state, Liu Lei planned to open a store in another place that can ensure customer flow.

After a friend's advice, he decided to open the store near the Rashid Hotel, which is a gathering place for American soldiers and many American politicians.

If you can open the store there, you will not only not have to worry about the traffic, but you will also have to worry about the bombing of shells.

However, Rashid Hotel is not a place that ordinary people can enter, and it is even more difficult to open a store nearby. Without a pass, no matter how good Liu Lei’s plan is, it is useless.

In order to get this pass, Liu Lei tried his best to ask the American soldiers one by one with the recipe and did a market research.

ultimately benefited from the support of these American soldiers, because had already eaten enough of the cold rice and cold dishes in the hotel and was eager to change the taste, so he supported Liu Lei to open a Chinese restaurant here.

Liu Lei's restaurant opened like this, and after the opening, the store was full every day, and he could earn $1,200 a day.

Return to China to settle

Selling food is not enough. Liu Lei will also sell wine, and the profit of wine is higher than that of food.

At that time, There were always American soldiers sitting in a helicopter to buy whole boxes of boxes of them. Whenever American soldiers came to buy wine, Liu Lei could earn more than 2,000 US dollars.

But it’s a pity that the hotel was not long after it was operated, and the local area was bombed by artillery shells. In order to save his life, Liu Lei had no choice but to return to his country.

When Liu Lei packed his luggage and returned to China, he checked the funds in his account, which totaled more than 3 million yuan. In about a year, Liu Lei became a millionaire by himself.

No one expected that he could make millions with the first $3,000, and change his destiny in just one year.

After returning to China, Liu Lei bought a new house, allowing his family to live a good life. While his peers were still worried about money and working, he had achieved economic freedom.

Of course, Liu Lei is not the kind of person who is scattered, otherwise he would not have risked his life to do business in Iraq.

After buying a house in the country, he took out part of his funds to open a company to do some import and export business.

Although the money you earn is not as good as when you opened a restaurant in Iraq, it is enough for the family to spend money and you can still save it in your bank card.

Under the conditions of poor overall environment and being affected by the epidemic, Liu Lei's company has also suffered heavy losses. For a long time, the business was not easy to do.

Fortunately, he did not invest all his money in the company at the beginning, so his family was not affected.

Although his career is in a low point, Liu Lei firmly believes that he can survive it. In his opinion, all difficulties have solutions, but it only takes some time.

Conclusion

"Adventure and opportunity coexist" , because Liu Lei has the spirit of taking risks, he seized the opportunity to make a fortune.

If he hadn't had the courage to start a business in Iraq, a country with fire, he wouldn't have had the inspirational experience of earning more than 3 million yuan in a year, and he wouldn't have had the wealthy life now.

From Liu Lei's inspiring life, we can understand a truth. When facing difficulties in life, instead of complaining about the injustice of fate, it is better to take the initiative to find opportunities.
