See Ma Weiqiang in Shaoxing, Zhejiang Province, how to find business opportunities on the fish skin and create wealth.

On October 28, 2015, when the reporter came to Shaoxing, Zhejiang Province for an interview, Ma Weiqiang was holding a tasting activity here. The form of the tasting was so special that participants were not only blindfolded, but also guessed what they were eating without seeing it.

Ma Weiqiang: cover your eyes.

Citizen: can't see.

Ma Weiqiang: that is, you can't see, cover up, and don't peek. Today we mainly hold a tasting activity. You cover your eyes, and I'll let you have a try. What is this? guess the riddle. I'll give you some small rewards.

Ma Weiqiang is a small boss in Shaoxing. He can always come up with many interesting ideas to attract business. After announcing the rules, Ma Weiqiang quickly distributed the food. At this time, everyone was blindfolded and had no idea what they were going to eat later.

Ma Weiqiang: guess what this is. Come on, this little sister. Taste what's inside.

Citizen: did you get it?

Citizen: did you clip it? Where is it? I can't feel it.

Citizen: I can't get it. How can I eat it?

Ma Weiqiang: do you know what this is?

Citizen: I can't eat it. I can feel it. Pink skin or something. It's slippery.

Citizen: it's a little sweet, a little sour, a little spicy, like salad seafood fish.

This cup is filled with a new dish just developed by Ma Weiqiang. Some people guess it is flour, some people say it is fish, and no one can tell what it is. Seeing that everyone was eating hard, Ma Weiqiang was in high spirits. He took out a new dish and asked everyone to guess.

Ma Weiqiang: try it. The second course. This is the same thing. Is it the same?

Customer: it's different. It was boiled just now, but now it's cold or something, but it's very chewy.

Customer: like jellyfish, jellyfish is not like this.

Everyone guessed for a long time what kind of food they were eating, but to no avail. Finally, Ma Weiqiang simply asked everyone to take off their masks and take a look, but who knows, after seeing what was in the cup, everyone suddenly became a little scared.

Interviewer: what kind of skin is this?

Customer: I don't know. It's like frog skin again.

Customer: I really can't eat this. It's a little scary. It looks like snakeskin.

Customer: it's kind of like snakeskin.

What we all eat is actually ordinary fish skin. Because fish skin is seldom made into a single dish, many people can't taste it. By making fish skin snacks, Ma Weiqiang achieved sales of millions of yuan in 2014.

Ma Weiqiang, 40, is a famous little boss in Shaoxing. Because he wears more than a thousand degrees of myopic glasses, he likes to giggle happily and everyone gives him the nickname "Bean". "Bean" Ma Weiqiang looks happy wherever he goes.

Friend: the glasses look funny. Do you think they are careless? we all call him stupid and make everyone happy.

Ma Weiqiang: although the shop is small, it has all the internal organs.

Anyone who knows Ma Weiqiang knows that he is a real pistachio. Because he can do business, he can not only sell ordinary grass carp worth more than 20 yuan to more than 100 yuan each, but also increase the price fivefold. Also in Shaoxing City to create a collection of breeding, leisure as one of the fish fry breeding base, leading more than 20 farmers with fish culture. In addition, Ma Weiqiang owns two restaurants in Shaoxing and cooperates with the school to contract the canteen. Ma Weiqiang is the envy of everyone around him. However, the reporter found that behind his smile, there were not only many bitterness that ordinary people could not understand, but also two scars left by suicide on his wrist. So, what exactly did Ma Weiqiang go through, and how did he find business opportunities and create wealth on the fish skin?

This is Ma Weiqiang's hometown, Gulai Town, Shengzhou City, Zhejiang Province. On this day, Ma Weiqiang made a special trip to visit his son who was still at school, and father and son had not seen each other for more than half a year. Once upon a time, Ma Weiqiang failed to start a business and owed more than 200,000 yuan in foreign debt in his hometown, and even his children's tuition fees could not be taken out.

Ma Wei-Qiang blames himself. In extreme despair, he chose to commit suicide. In September 2003, it was in this house that Ma Weiqiang cut his wrist, and if his father hadn't found out in time, he wouldn't be alive now.

Ma Weiqiang: at that time, I really didn't want to live any more. a man in the mountains in the countryside started his business like this and failed like this. Now that I think about it, I'm so sorry to my dad. As soon as I saw these two places, the scars reminded me that I must be strong, think of ways, and do everything more than ordinary people.

The suicide caused serious trauma to Ma Weiqiang's body. Because he had lost too much blood and his brain was deprived of oxygen for too long, his reaction ability and movement speed were much lower than before.

In order to support his family, Ma Weiqiang went out to work and drifted for seven years. In March 2010, he heard that raising grass carp was cheap and quick, so he built a fish pond covering an area of more than 50 acres on the outskirts of Shaoxing, hoping to make money by raising grass carp.

Knowing nothing about fish farming, Ma Weiqiang is like a living bean, working with myopic glasses of more than a thousand degrees, clumsy, often casting a net, and he can also drop himself into the water. In order to raise the fish well, Ma Weiqiang worked very hard, but before he learned to cast a net, something happened in the fish pond.

One day in September 2010, Ma Weiqiang was mowing grass in the field when suddenly he heard a loud crash coming from the fish pond. Feeling wrong, Ma Weiqiang hurriedly ran to have a look, but the whole lake was glowing and tens of thousands of fish fluttered hard, and the scene made him directly frightened and dumbfounded.

Ma Weiqiang: "it all jumped up. I thought this fish was very successful this year. It must be a bumper harvest year." Unexpectedly, it all sank after a few minutes. I was stupid at that time.

Within ten minutes, all the fish in the pond had died. The petrified Ma Weiqiang suddenly remembered that when installing the aerator, in order to save money, he did not hire a professional electrician to install it entirely on the basis of his own experience. The aerator accidentally leaked electricity, and the fish was electrocuted alive. In less than half a year, he lost more than 30,000 yuan.
