Treasure for entrepreneurship, ten-word mantra

1. "Speed" Maxim

That is, as the saying goes, "When sailing, compete to cut the rope; I sell mooncakes first." In short, doing business requires being the first to seize opportunities. These money-making strategies that emphasize speed mostly appear in businesses dealing with trendy and seasonal products.

2. "Precision" Maxim

The image of a meticulous person represents the new generation of entrepreneurs in Hong Kong city. The image of being smart and achieving success at a young age is always what people like to see, and these images greatly help promote their personal and business livelihoods.

3. "Possession" Maxim

One must have a decent "stall" or "facade." Generally, people believe that business is built on the foundation of "having people and resources." Therefore, you must give others the impression that you are far from "having nothing," and that they are not your first "customer."

4. "Courage" Maxim

That is, "the brave know no fear." Thus, some say that Hong Kong people are especially rich in the spirit of adventure. Whenever there is a new market or a new business idea, there are always people willing to try it out. Of course, courage must be accompanied by strategy. However, for those known as skilled "reversal players," the courage to fear nothing brings even greater benefits.

5. "Oneness" Maxim

Hong Kong people particularly favor the number "one." Despite being serious about everything, which might seem a bit arrogant or aloof, becoming "Number One" is the ultimate goal for countless entrepreneurs. It also satisfies the public's habit of adding to one's glory, packaging oneself as the best targets everyone's tendency to follow.

6. "Naivety" Maxim

The underlying meaning of the "naivety" maxim is that beneath the naivety lies astuteness. "Naivety" is just a packaging tactic. Chinese people often use traditional wisdom such as "feeding pigs on your knees, watching money closely" and "pretending to be stupid to outsmart others." The most successful salespeople may outwardly appear as someone who fits the "clumsy type" but can cleverly manipulate situations.

7. "Fun" Maxim

Many entrepreneurs would say, "I run my small business purely for fun." You might admire their carefree and elusive style, but if you buy their products or services, you might find that their fees are not so amusing. Fun should be played with sophistication and cannot give off an impression of cynicism.

8. "Diligence" Maxim

This is one of the oldest entrepreneurial mottos. Diligence means not only physical effort but also mental effort. Only those who think more, have brains, and are good at seizing opportunities will succeed.

9. "Trust" Maxim

"Trust" has two meanings: the first emphasizes "credit," and the second emphasizes "confidence." This is the oldest business ethics.

10. "Follow" Maxim

Not everyone wants to be a trailblazer because the risks are great. Most people just follow trends - "whatever is popular, I'll do." In short, staying close to the trend ensures no loss.
