In the cafeteria of the National People's Congress, Liu Nian ordered some vegetarian dishes and a steamed bun. Li Mu looked a little sad and wanted to order some meat dishes to eat with him, but after a moment of hesitation, he gave up and ordered a vegetable dish himself. A steamed bun, and then a bowl of free pot water soup from the canteen, and sat across from Liu Nian.
When Liu Nian saw that Li Mu had eaten so little, he hurriedly asked, "Brother Mu, do you have enough to eat?"
Li Mu smiled slightly and said, "That's enough. It's good for your health to eat less at night."
The camera kept filming at a fixed position nearby. Li Mu and Liu Nian ate their meal very quickly, and they didn't talk much. But when they were about to finish eating, Li Mu asked Liu Nian: "Are you full?"
Liu Nian nodded and said with a smile: "I'm full, I have a small appetite."
Li Mu nodded and smiled, and the two stood up together, took the plates to the special bucket at the door, and then walked out of the campus side by side.
When I left school, waited for the bus, and took the bus, the photographer followed me all the way, and the machine never stopped once.
After getting off the bus, Liu Nian took the note with the other party's home address and looked at the signs on the roadside. After walking for almost 500 meters, he found a community called Zhichun Nanli.
After entering the gate of the community, Liu Nian became a little nervous and said to Li Mu: "Brother Mu, what do you think will happen if the students or their parents don't approve of my tutoring?"
Li Mu laughed casually and said: "You scored over 670 points in the college entrance examination. As long as you don't be nervous and show your mastery of the knowledge points in the three years of high school, it is impossible for students and parents to disagree."
Liu Nian giggled and said, "I'm just afraid that people will be dissatisfied and apply for a refund directly. Then in my dad's eyes, I will really become a fool."
Li Mu patted his shoulder and said calmly: "Don't worry, you can do it."
The two of them walked all the way to the door of their employer's home. Liu Nian took a few deep breaths at the door, and then rang the other party's doorbell.
Before coming, Li Mu had already communicated with the parents of the other party and asked them if they were willing to cooperate in this special shooting. The other party simply agreed. At this moment, their family of three was waiting for Liu Nian, Li Mu and the two TV station staff to come. Visit.
The doorbell rang twice, and the door was pushed open. When an aunt in her forties saw the four people at the door and the dark camera, she hurriedly smiled and said: "Oh, are they classmates Liu Nian and Li Mu? Come on, right? Please come in, please come in."
Liu Nian hurriedly bowed slightly and said: "Hello, aunt, I am Liu Nian."
Li Mu also bowed slightly: "Hello, aunt, I am Li Mu."
The aunt said very politely: "Come in quickly!"
The two of them walked in first, followed by the two reporters. As soon as they walked in, the man on the sofa stood up and came over to greet him. Another boy, about seventeen or eighteen years old, was a little nervous. He looked at the camera and hurriedly turned his face to the side.
The male host pulled his son to the front and said with a smile: "Xiaoyu, say hello to the seniors, don't you really want to take the National People's Congress exam? These two are your seniors at the National People's Congress."
Xiaoyu was obviously a little embarrassed about the camera, smiled awkwardly, and said shyly like a girl: "Hello, senior."
Li Mu said: "Actually, the TV station is doing a tracking shoot today. Uncle, aunt and Xiaoyu, let's not be too nervous, just let it happen naturally."
Chen Lei, who had been silently following the filming, smiled and said, "Yes, uncle and aunt, when Liu Nian gives Xiaoyu tutoring later, we only need to go in and shoot a few scenes."
The aunt smiled and said: "Okay, okay, let's sit on the sofa for a while and drink some water!"
Liu Nian looked at the time and said, "Auntie, it's almost time. I think I can go to his room with Xiaoyu to study."
Xiaoyu also wanted to get out of the camera's viewing range as soon as possible, so he hurriedly said: "Senior Liu Nian, please come with me. Let's go to the study room."
The two went to the study room, and Chen Lei did not follow them to disturb them. Instead, she said to the host and hostess of the house: "Uncle and aunt, while the children are studying, let's give you two an interview."
The male host had some stage fright and asked in a low voice: "Are you going to interview us again? What are you going to interview?"
Chen Lei said: "Actually, it's just some simple questions, such as why you chose to find a college student tutor for your child in 3321, what do you think about college student tutoring, etc. You don't need to be nervous, just answer everything truthfully."
…
At ten o'clock in the evening the next day, the Yanjing evening news started.
Li Mu and the other five brothers in the dormitory ran out to find a private room with a TV to eat and watch while eating. In order not to embarrass Liu Nian, they did not go with Zhao Ziqiu and the girls in the dormitory this time.
The evening news had just started. The host introduced the main content of today's news. 3321 was in the third one. The host's description was: "Online tutoring is popular in Beijing. 3321 Network is exploring new directions for part-time jobs for college students."
After the official content started, everyone waited for about seven or eight minutes before the special news about Liu Nian finally arrived.
After the host's introduction, the screen cut to the dormitory of Renmin University. At this time, Liu Nian and Li Mu were about to go out. The narrator said in a tone similar to "China on the Tip of the Tongue": "At six o'clock in the evening , Liu Nian, a freshman in the 01st class of Renmin University, packed his backpack and, accompanied by his roommate Li Mu, prepared for his first home tutoring. He listed 20 classes on the 3321 website, and the transaction price was per class hour 43 yuan. After the one-week course, he will receive more than 800 yuan in remuneration. This price may be surprising at first, but the reporter learned that the transaction price of the 3321 online bidding king reached 588 yuan per class hour. "
"Eighteen-year-old Liu Nian comes from a mountain village under the jurisdiction of a national-level poverty-stricken county in southwest Guangxi. Due to the geographical location and lack of economic development, Liu Nian's family annual income is only about 3,000 yuan. Today, Before that night, he had never dreamed that he could find a part-time job that paid more than 800 yuan a week. Some time ago, he also hoped to find a work-study position on the Renmin University campus. The latter's salary was The salary is about three yuan per hour. Although it is higher than the minimum wage standard in Yanjing City, it is more than ten times lower than the salary Liu Nian received in 3321."
"Li Mu, who is next to Liu Nian, is the founder of 3321. This is a platform that specifically serves college students, high school students, and parents of high school students. Its core operation is to recommend college students to high school students as tutors. In the past, During this week, 3321 has become the most concerned term for parents of senior high school students in Yanjing."
At this time, Li Mu and Liu Nian were already out of the dormitory. As soon as the narration ended, the scene switched to a studio. Li Mu was sitting on a single sofa. The yellow chasing light hit his face, and his back was blurred. Black, it looks very prominent.
Li Mu in the picture smiled and said: "The creation of the 3321 website was an unexpected opportunity. At that time..."
Li Mu on TV roughly talked about what happened when he came back from vacation and saw the sick Liu Nian worrying about part-time work.
"I found it difficult to accept at the time. No matter what, the students who can get into Renmin University have absolutely top-notch college entrance examination scores. Only after they have learned the knowledge in three years of high school can they achieve such excellent results in the college entrance examination. Why can they only Getting a part-time salary of less than three yuan per hour? So I decided to make a website like this to let them find their own life value."
The reporter who did not show up asked Li Mu about the source of funds for establishing 3321. Li Mu directly answered that his family supported it.
The reporter then asked Li Mu that 3321 charges a 5% commission between parents and students in both directions. What is the purpose of this commission
Li Mu also explained his motivation again: "After deducting the normal operating funds of 3321, all the remaining profits will be used to establish a college student aid fund."
The reporter asked again: "We roughly calculated that 3321's profit in the first week exceeded 150,000 yuan. Assuming that after earning the initial investment cost, it has a net income of 50,000 yuan per week, then it will be 200,000 yuan per month. , this is a very large sum of money. It is naturally a great thing to use it as a college student aid fund, but who will control this money? Should 3321 set up a student aid fund by itself, or donate the money to A charity in society?”
Li Mu said in an extremely serious tone on this issue: "3321 is a public welfare platform. We will make all profits public and transparent. We also welcome all walks of life to review and supervise our public data. This is not yet the case. Which charity can do this, so our net profits will be used to establish our own student fund and implement fund transparency. We will announce every income and every donation on our website."
Later, the screen switched to Liu Nian being interviewed. The reporter asked Liu Nian: "Before coming to Yanjing, have you ever thought about doing a part-time work-study program after you get here?"
Liu Nian was silent for a while, then raised his head and said, "I thought about it all night before I came to Yanjing, and I think about this problem every day after that. It's just that my physical fitness is too poor and my stature is too short. I can't get a part-time job in general." Don’t want me.”
The reporter asked again: "Have you ever thought about being a tutor before?"
"I have thought about it, but there is no way. The students' parents will not come to the university to find us, and we don't know where to find the students' parents. We can only write some notes and post them in nearby communities, but no one seems to care."
"Then why do you think that when college students put up stickers to find employers, no one paid attention, but on 3321, employers took the initiative to bid to hire college students?"
Liu Nian smiled shyly and said, "Brother Mu told me this problem. At the beginning, I couldn't imagine that I would be a tutor for senior high school students. Because the age difference was small and the stakes were so important, I wasn't confident enough. In fact, it wasn't just me. , the same goes for other college students. We usually tutor junior high school students more, so there is less pressure. However, after Brother Mu heard about it, he called me a fool and scolded me for not realizing that my biggest advantage is in the college entrance examination. In mastering the knowledge points of the three years of high school.”
As he spoke, Liu Nian's eyes flashed: "It was he who realized the value of us freshmen, and even more aware of our advantages for senior high school students. It was also he who conveyed this advantage to the parents of the students. Parents have really begun to recognize the special value of our freshmen, so they will bid to hire college students on 3321."
