In Tokyo, there is such a "post-80 s" Shandong girl who gave up her stable job in a listed company in Tokyo and chose to study her favorite major. After graduation, she dared to break through self-transformation and start a business. She has the spirit of "post-80s generation" unwilling to be mediocre, optimistic, positive and full of vitality ... She is Qin Li, a China beautician in Japan.

Jiao is now the president of Japanese high-end skin care brand cosmetic beauty salon. Under her leadership, more than 50 beauticians walked out of her 50-square-meter shop. Looking back on the hardships in Japan in the past eleven years, Qin Li was deeply touched.

Excellent people are always excellent.

Qin Li Jiaotong University is an industrial (art) design major. When she graduated from college in 2008, she attended a special job fair for college students in graduation season. At the job fair, an IT multinational listed company in Tokyo attracted students' attention. Qin Qin also submitted his resume to this company without any suspense. After several rounds of written examination and interview screening, the excellent Qin Qin stood out in the selection of all the students and was successfully admitted.

Qin Qin said, "As long as you pay, you will be rewarded. God will not be kind to everyone who works hard. "

In 2009, Qin Qin successfully came to work in Tokyo. Like white-collar workers in other cities, he goes to work by tram every day from Monday to Friday, goes out early and returns late, and is busy with his hobbies at weekends. ...

Qin Qin, who has just entered the society and settled in a foreign country, strives to adapt to various Japanese customs and habits, and requires herself to integrate into the team as soon as possible at work.

From being familiar with the workflow from the beginning, to assisting the team to complete the design, and then to designing the project independently, she quickly became a good helper of her colleagues and became the business backbone of the company. Through more than a year's efforts, Qin Qin's work ability and communication skills in work have been praised by colleagues and leaders.

My work and life in a foreign country are very calm, but Qin Qin feels, "In the eyes of others, my life is very stable and superior, but I am increasingly dissatisfied with my status."

"Zero" Challenge, Start over.

A very common "post-80 s", but not ordinary, "I don't want to work step by step from nine to five. I like art and don't want to be bound. " Qin Qin said.

"I remember attending a fashion show of Japan Fashion Institute with my friends. I was shocked by the design of the live costume works and the atmosphere of the whole event, and I was amazed at the front end of Tokyo fashion. At that time, I made up my mind that I wanted to be a member here. "

20 10 after careful consideration, Qin Qin resigned from the enviable stable job and embarked on the road to study. However, it is not an easy task for Qin Qin to enter the second-ranked college in the world's clothing industry. It is followed by the high level requirements of Japanese and the entrance examination for related majors.

Although Qin Qin has worked in Japan for more than a year, he is still far from reaching the first level of Japanese. In order to pass the Japanese Level 1 exam as soon as possible, Qin Qin began to devote himself to Japanese learning.

However, the moment when Qin Qin successfully passed the Japanese exam was only a small step in her goal process. How many days and nights will there be in the next professional exam?

Everything comes to him who waits. Qin Qin was successfully admitted to the Department of Fashion Design of Japan Institute of Fashion Technology. "At that time, I thought everyone's life was their own choice. Whether it is good or not, I want to take every step in a down-to-earth manner, do what I want to do, and make myself what I want. "

Looking back on the years of studying abroad, Qin Qin said, "full of hardships but very happy."

"At that time, I got up at six o'clock every day to finish my school homework, then went to class early, worked in a restaurant after school in the afternoon, and usually got home after 10 in the evening. The living conditions can't compare with those at work. The money you can earn by working part-time is only enough to pay the rent and the material cost of clothes.

However, despite the great pressure, I feel that life is really colorful after I get used to it. Every time I make a dress, I feel the joy of learning and my inner satisfaction. At that moment, I felt that all the efforts were worth it. "

Life after falling into a trough

After graduating from college, Qin Qin began to look for a job suitable for fashion design. However, the cruel reality is that for a foreigner, in Tokyo, the most popular place in the world, the competition is fierce beyond imagination, not to mention the high salary, and there are few job opportunities suitable for foreigners.

From the beginning, I hit a wall everywhere, and then I was desperate. Faced with the embarrassment of not finding a suitable job, Qin Qin felt that life had fallen to an unprecedented bottom.

"In the face of difficulties and setbacks, facing the confusion of the road ahead, I began to feel at a loss, and even began to doubt my initial decision. This is my persistent and passionate major. Think about how many sleepless days and nights I spent waiting for this day. When I was at school, when I had no money to buy materials, and when I was sick and insisted on working, it was not so difficult. "

"But I don't want to give up. I once read a sentence,' the reason for unhappiness is never what happened, but what kind of mentality you face.' I think no matter how embarrassing my situation is, I must face it with a full state. "

360 lines, each line is a champion. The similarity between clothing and beauty inspired Qin Qin to enter the beauty industry. "After all, it's all about beauty. I think everything from wearing to skin care is the direction I like to pursue."

Determined the direction, Qin Qin tried to stick to it. Now that she has done it, she is determined to do her best. Among many brands, she chose POLA, Japan's top skin care brand. "Encourage yourself to cheer every day. I know everything will be fine. "

A second chance in life

In this way, Qin Qin spent three years in the trough. After professional knowledge, practice, numerous exercises and repeated attempts, Qin Qin finally passed the examination of POLA headquarters and became the first China beautician to join the team. Qin Qin said, "People who love fashion design and beauty must love life. Whether it is clothing or beauty, it is what I want to do most. "

After obtaining the qualification as a beautician in POLA headquarters, Qin Qin began to prepare her beauty salon. But there are many beauty shops on the streets of Tokyo, which can be said to be a huge competition. How can we survive in a competitive environment? Qin Qin also did more homework.

At first, as a girl with no business experience, Qin Qin was confused. At that time, she didn't know how to decorate, how to choose the site, and how to operate the store.

Because of the requirements of the industry, the site selection failed three times, but everything paid off. 20 17, Qinqin successfully opened in Ikebukuro, Tokyo. "At that moment, I firmly believed that as long as I had confidence in myself, I would succeed." Qin Qin said.

"Without operational experience, I will run the store into a small home for all of us. When one person makes a mistake, all his friends have to face it. We will work together to solve this problem. I don't think it can be wrong. "

"At first, customers are naturally flowing, but you have to learn to accumulate. As long as you are sincere, you will gradually win more customers. Especially when serving customers, we must remember not to overemphasize how good the product is, but to value the value of the product to customers. "

Slowly, after the store stabilized, Qin Qin began to focus on training more beauticians. Since she opened the store for more than three years, after her careful guidance, more than 50 beauticians have come out of her shop. "I think, on the one hand, I can expand my team strength, and then I can help more women in Japan realize their life value."

Half is the pursuit of one's own dream, and the other half is the desire for recognition of one's own value. With Qin Qin's gentle hands, she not only brought beautiful transformation to more and more women, but also infected more female friends around her with her independence, optimism and strength. "You are sunny, and the world will be wonderful because of you."
