The "Danzhen Street Vendor Company" Dream of a Woman Vendor When the time was ripe, she hoped to establish the Danzhen Wild Street Vendor Company, gathering the street vendors together for unified training, achieving corporate management of the street vendor business. In late 2005, Ma Le Ping came alone from Hubei to Shenzhen. To make ends meet, he started selling roses, mobile phone accessories, bubble tea, and more on the streets. He also opened restaurants and hardware stores... Through the hardships of struggling alone in this foreign land, Ma Le Ping conceived the idea of personal entrepreneurship. In Danzhen's Shajing area, the developed commercial zones and large floating population provided substantial economic returns for street vending, which Ma Le Ping saw as a business opportunity. Accustomed to collecting information online, he directly created a QQ group for street vendors, discussing supply and sales conditions with netizens from all over the country within the group. According to Ma Le Ping's disclosure, by now, he has established more than 30 such groups. These not only gathered street vendor information from all over the country but also allowed him to meet like-minded friends. It was here that Ma Le Ping took his first step in entrepreneurship. "An individual's strength is always limited; pooling collective strength is necessary to achieve great endeavors." To provide a broader exchange platform for street vendors, Ma Le Ping decided to create a street vendor forum. After confirming his idea, Ma Le Ping, with only primary education, began working on the website's creation. Buying books, reading, consulting friends, early planning, building the website... Every day after work, Ma Le Ping would start studying his own site. Time does not betray those who strive; by October last year, the street vendor forum was successfully created. Creating the website was just the first step; making it survive was a crucial question. Every day before work, distributing business cards became another part of his job. The reality proved that his efforts were not in vain. "Not long after, people started registering and posting on the website. Gradually, the street vendor forum became known to people. Now, when you search 'street vendor' on Baidu among all the national street vendor websites, our forum ranks first," said Ma Le Ping proudly. "This forum builds a bridge between people who vend on the streets in different regions and those who have ideas about street vending," he said. In the newcomer reception area of the street vendor forum, apart from mutual help among vendors, newcomers can learn how to realize their dreams in the Entrepreneurial Sales Classroom; the Vendor Experience Sharing Area is where one shares experiences and insights. Those who forget to write down their joys and sorrows while vending can record them in diary form. In the Goods Supply Exchange Area, there is not only regular goods supply information but also urgent purchasing areas opened for vendors, greatly facilitating the vendors. Additionally, Ma Le Ping specifically opened a network entrepreneurship section to provide services for those opening online shops. This news spans two pages, currently on page 1. 1 2
