Coffee outside the garage is 'Haidian Book City Walking Street', this street but two hundred meters, just three years has gathered between 3W coffee, 'Entrepreneur' dark horse global roadshow center, Pegasus Brigade, Bingo coffee and coffee concept garage the same meeting place for entrepreneurs. The nest has been on the second floor of the garage hotel Xin Ding coffee, a bit of the original rough, compared to those elegant decoration, the location of the eye-catching newcomer who now looks a little shabby garage. 'I feel so good, what is competition between the garage and they do not exist, as long as this street allows entrepreneurs to have a gathering place on the line,' garage coffee creator Sue lit a China-di, 往沙发上一 by, speaking mouthful standard Beijing dialect, said: 'I've Air Jordan 4 Retro seen thousands of entrepreneurs it, this is very interesting, I do not intend to rely on earnings garage, does not intend to expand in fact there are a lot of people want to invest in the garage, but it remains now. very good, because it is pure. '' Walking Street, Haidian Book City ', will be replaced in the coming years in people's minds as a' Zhongguancun Venture Street ', while the first gathering of entrepreneurs in this street is the Su-di garage coffee. Spring of 2011, the Soviet Union-di Zhongguancun find a less expensive place to rent opened this café, because he found when making investment 'Beijing entrepreneurs are too dispersed to find an entrepreneur you have to open a few hours by car, but also the old Beijing traffic jam, the day can not see the two entrepreneurs. 'Su-di said that he is a utopian plot, he found a group of entrepreneurs is particularly strange person, group of people need a pure' Utopia 'to grow. Why do garage? Because i've seen their crazy dark horse Thursday afternoon visit garage, 800 square meters of the place is still overcrowded, basically entrepreneurs. Su-di seem familiar garage coffee every guest, constantly introduces 'Some of them come every day, the bespectacled boy programmed only 18 years old, from 12-year-old started programming, now doing new projects. The couple turned out to be beef do business, to the garage started Bitcoin media. come to introduce a HIT Lab out of the entrepreneur, he invented the motor may subvert the electric vehicle industry, his motor Bitesila Also on the motor is 20% last year and when I said I still think he was bragging force, think of yesterday have brought a prototype to ...... 'and cafe entrepreneurs who, many have stood up and Su-di hello, calling it 'old Soviet Union' or 'Soviet boss.' That scene, like the movie 'Dragon Inn' in the treasurer Wu Ning greeting from all directions gathered from the Jianghuhaoke. Su-di also say of myself as a gas arena people, like friends, like chat, like interesting people and things, but he made the best coffee garage initial reason, it is seen a lot of crazy and interesting entrepreneur - he like these people. Su-di is an Internet veteran, and the first four students in the Zhongguancun do PC sales agents, after the renowned electricity supplier website 8848 work, starting from the common channel sales, so Nike Shox agents in Jiangsu Province, from scratch established 8848 Nanjing Branch. Later, the collapse of 8848, he went to the Chinacache blue flood in sales. Su-di in broadband sales Air Jordan 18 chinacache do, just do not resources, then less than a big list, he had to go to a small Internet company. At that time the Soviet-di contacted no less than 2000 Internet companies, including start of the happy network, 58 city, the car home and so on. 'At that time I met still small office ready entrepreneurial happy, cool, 6, car companies such as car home, I found particularly interesting group of people, only 7-8 individuals, nothing, not even have broadband fees installments, on planning the next few years to go to the US market, the largest automotive website do something, I felt these guys can really blow. 'Later, Su-di contact with more and more Internet entrepreneurs, found that a group of people not only bragging, work is also very fierce, a lot of people in the years have 'done by blowing then regressed.' Su-di and many entrepreneurs have become friends and gradually the shock of what they do. He even began to help a number of start-up companies like extended account of the cost of bandwidth to ease their pressure on cash flow. Love and entrepreneurs together, let Su-di business is getting better, as these emerging Internet company's rapid development, responsible for the bandwidth they sell Su-di revenue also grew and grew. Until 2010 chinacache blue flood in the US market, company-wide revenue of 250 million, of which 40 million are Su-di do. Blue flood after the US Nasdaq-listed company that Su-di watching startups vision, then let him in charge of the Investment Department chinacache, bringing Su-di have more opportunities to reach entrepreneurs. At that time in Beijing, Zhongguancun was not like today, entrepreneurs who do not gather, as well as information shared circle. Su-di to find one entrepreneur is very troublesome, it is to talk about investment, each to spend several hours on the road, Beijing also frequent traffic jams. At that time entrepreneurs were very scattered, either geographically or information (i horse Note: This is exactly 2011 years later, the reasons for the rise of science and technology blog entrepreneurial community, entrepreneurial community groups and investors, entrepreneurs and the outside world, At that time needs more 'connected.') SU-di decided to establish a 'gathering of entrepreneurs' Geographically, he quit his job and serve the investment to create the garage of coffee, when family and friends are not supported Su-di, but he said he would remember the words, 'some things when I was younger does not buckle down, since you have no chance,' he likened the car Coffee-like 'go to Tibet on foot,' the same things funny. Su-di was thirty, finance is not nervous, I thought I should do a funny thing, let alone is a significant and interesting thing. Garage core value: the entrepreneur community Su-di rented Haidian Book City pedestrian street Xin Ding Hotel 800 square meters of floor space to fight cafe, find a few acquaintances, Lianzhong founder Bao Yueqiao, Air Jordan Fusion Haihong Holding Shangguan Yongqiang vice president, Eric founder Henry Yang and other 10 investors, voted more than two hundred thousand into the garage of coffee in April 2011 the official carrier. Since Su-di already have some influence in the industry, Cai Wensheng and other chiefs also helping on the microblogging publicity, coupled with accurate positioning, garage coffee soon to fame. Three months after the opening, to the garage entrepreneurs have flocked to the garage but any natural nest in Xin Ding Hotel on the second floor, the identification is not obvious that this is a deliberate Soviet-di 'are really looking for here only to come entrepreneurs, rather than passing a couple of white-collar or leisure. ' Gettin garage coffee breath, Su-di extremely excited 'at least the year I talked one thousand entrepreneurs, I have talked myself lost ten kilograms, feel particularly good state' and later more and more entrepreneurs, Su-di is no way one talked, and now his team has five people dedicated to operating cafe entrepreneurial community. 'I think the most valuable parts of the garage of coffee is not to provide office space for entrepreneurs, nor events, but entrepreneurs gathered from the community' garage coffee now has its own membership system, entrepreneurs can apply to join After accepting the garage of the audit, to pay 1200 yuan per year annual fee can be added after the addition can share a lot of the garage entrepreneur community resources. Garage also has its own entrepreneurs CRM system, all the 'membership' information will be entered entrepreneurs. 'I do not rely on this to make money, is to maintain the basic operations. You want Nike Shox hundreds of entrepreneurs, it can only be charged a total of about 300,000 annual fee, I recruited a few more operations personnel and even the costs are not covered.' But the value of this community of entrepreneurs is huge, Zhou Botong recruitment recent startups to obtain financing, are in the garage of the entrepreneur in the community system contributed, they have their own circle, usually with micro-channel contact, organization . Investment institutions have approached the Soviet-di hope the establishment of 'Garage fund', but did not promise Su-di 'I still want to become a pure garage entrepreneurs utopian, do not require it to profitability, or do something else. Now good , so after a while I'm going to put it aside to management, remains intact on the line. 'Although the Su-di not directly depend on the garage of coffee to make money, but in return he received absolutely worth it. When the platform since Garage coffee, government, banks, investors, entrepreneurs resources in polymerization to him, i-di Su horse to interview, he had just returned from a bank. Banks hope to millions of coffee garage business loans to entrepreneurs who, while many investment funds are also flocking to the garage of coffee, as long as the Su-di come forward to match the investment in general can become. Garage Coffee has formed a good ecological system prototype - the coffee itself garage entrepreneurs gathered community (garage coffee also used CRM system to manage the 'Member' entrepreneurs), then these communities will have a huge energy resources, be able to attract investors, government, banks and other resources. Su-di 'no coffee to profit by the garage,' the thinking is precisely in order to allow the maximization of the value of the garage, the garage of coffee purity, can gather more community entrepreneurs, entrepreneurs need community resources will be a strong demand coffee cooperate with garage. It's like now play each vertical social networks, to gather a class of users, as long as a certain magnitude, vertical communities will naturally have a great value, the key is to consider keeping the purity of the community, there is no need to consider the issue of short-term revenue . Garage Coffee has maintained a very open and inclusive mode. 'There is a Anhui to entrepreneurs spend 60 bucks to sleep every night next to Gwongeumseong Nike Shoes Nike Basketball hotel lobby, the garage during the day to do their own business projects. To be honest I am not optimistic about his current project, but I think there is such a always a spiritual entrepreneurs, and his heart is happy. Whatever the final success of the process of chasing the dream of feeling the best! Also some entrepreneurs put the coffee house to rent in the garage around him do one thing can so enthusiastically, that they'll do what is easy into. ' Su-di contacted too many entrepreneurs, the entrepreneur is to understand what kind of group. Just as he met Lee just starting thinking, Mao Kankan, Cheng Binghao like when he doubts their perspective, they always surprised him, Su-di indeed benefited a lot. So Su-di that, no matter now looks entrepreneurs do not fly, they always have an amazing body of energy, you need to respect it. 'So do the garage must be inclusive of coffee, innovation is allowed to fail, it is not profitable coffee I insist garage reason not to fund a taste will do. I hope garage coffee very inclusive, any entrepreneur can You can come in, we do not exclude anybody. 'Postscript i horse went out from the garage of coffee, gradually glare of the sun mixed with the hustle and bustle Zhongguancun Venture Street. This street has been very different from three years ago, and gradually developed into China's most important gathering of entrepreneurs. Three years ago, the founder of the Soviet Union came to the garage-di coffee, he suggested a year ago in the garage of coffee within government leaders to create 'Zhongguancun Venture Street.'
