Pan Ruibin: Will it really be "sissy" to give up foreign translation and go back to the village to knit sweaters?

We always have stereotypes about different genders. For example, girls should wear skirts, like playing with dolls, and be gentle and quiet. Boys should dress neatly, like cars and military affairs, and be strong and brave.

But everyone is different and has his own unique personality, so that the society will be colorful and convenient for the rich development of all walks of life. There is such a little brother born after 80, who likes knitting that seems to be liked by girls since childhood. This is very "feminine" in the eyes of ordinary people, but he has made great achievements with this skill.

Experience of learning to knit sweaters

Different from ordinary boys, Pan Ruibin seems to be a quiet boy who can concentrate for a long time. When other little boys are still running around, he prefers to stay at home with his mother and watch her knit a sweater.

Because Pan Ruibin was born in the 1980s, hand-knitted sweaters were still very popular in those days. Most importantly, mothers of that generation also have the skill of knitting sweaters. At that time, everyone had to wear sweaters and trousers in winter, and these clothes were not bought in shopping malls, but knitted by their own mothers.

Mother can knit a sweater with a beautiful warm pattern after a period of time by stirring the needle and thread. Pan Ruibin, who watched from the sidelines, has been fascinated by knitting for a long time. Gradually, he "described" around his mother and learned how her mother picked the thread with a needle.

Maybe Pan Ruibin has a gift for knitting sweaters, but he actually learned to knit sweaters slowly. He was only six years old when he learned to use needles, and he was only 10 years old when he could knit sweaters skillfully.

Pan Ruibin has been amazing since he learned to knit sweaters. His skills are becoming more and more skilled and he is becoming more and more interested in knitting. He often gets together with his mother and his neighbor's aunt to knit sweaters.

Joke: don't mess with aunt. Who would have thought that a little boy could do well in his aunt's best job, even worse than his aunts?

Of course, Pan Ruibin didn't learn to knit sweaters to compete with his aunts. He simply likes knitting sweaters and enjoys the quiet enjoyment brought by pure handwork.

Give up your old job and go home to knit a sweater.

After graduating from university, Pan Ruibin joined a foreign company as a Japanese translator. His salary was not bad, and he was decent in a large foreign company. His family is very satisfied with his work.

But Pan Ruibin feels that his present job is not so ideal, and he still loves knitting. After work, he can knit a sweater. Gradually, he took knitting as a sideline. Although he can't earn much money, he is doing what he likes.

After such a period of time, Pan Ruibin still feels dissatisfied. He wants to devote all his energy to knitting sweaters.

After some struggle, Pan Ruibin made up his mind to knit sweaters as a career, so he went home and told his family about his decision. Naturally, the whole family is unanimously opposed. Good foreign companies will go home to knit sweaters instead of staying, and they are also boys. It's weird to say it.

Furthermore, hand-knitted sweaters are obviously being eliminated in this era. With big machines, who will waste time and energy knitting sweaters? However, Pan Ruibin doesn't agree with his family at all. He thinks that in the future era of cold machine control, hand knitting will have more temperature and value.

Finally, Pan Ruibin quit his high-paying job and went back to his hometown to knit sweaters. Everyone's dream is beautiful and bright, but it will never be so smooth in practice. After all, reality is skinny. Pan Ruibin, who went home to knit sweaters under great pressure, also experienced many setbacks and tests.

Climbing period of sweater career

Pan Ruibin, who goes home, is very cautious. He didn't listen to his family's advice and went his own way for fear of making a wrong move. Because he has some experience in internet sales, he sold his sweater on Taobao. But he was afraid of losing money and only dared to sell a sweater to buy one.

At that time, his working environment was very simple, that is, putting a computer in the bedroom. Everything from production and processing to sales can be done in his small bedroom. In this way, half a year has passed, and Pan Ruibin has attracted many customers for his Taobao shop with his exquisite knitting skills.

With customers and income, Pan Ruibin finally moved the studio out of the bedroom. He lives in a tin room on the third floor. Don't mention how hot it is there in summer. An iron house is like a steamer. It is useless for him to turn on both air conditioners.

If it leaks in rainy days, we should move the goods in time. Even in such a difficult environment, Pan Ruibin persisted, and the orders were more and more, so that one person was too busy. Pan Ruibin thinks that all the aunts near their home should be able to knit sweaters like their mothers, so they can be hired to help.

Most of these aunts stay at home to take care of the youngest and have no stable source of income. Here in Pan Ruibin, they can use their skills to make some money.

When Pan Ruibin left the sweater production line, he had the energy to concentrate on product design and sales. He even enrolled in relevant remedial classes, studied fashion design seriously, and kept abreast of the fashion frontier.

He has never let go of Internet sales, and he is also studying intensively. In this way, the aunts knit sweaters, and he is responsible for the design and sales of trade.

However, with the expansion of business, various problems have followed. Pan Ruibin's shop has not yet formed a scale, so when the order is large, the knitting speed of the aunts can't keep up. Newly hired aunts also need to know the knitting style of the sweaters they sell, which needs to be taught.

During the teaching period, people still have to pay the corresponding physical labor costs. This makes Pan Ruibin face great difficulties since he started his business. Fortunately, during the period of low passenger flow, he found a professional photography team and took beautiful and fashionable sweater photos, which saved the lost customers in publicity.

Popularity drives rural women to re-employment.

Recently, online stores have set off a heat wave of live selling goods, and Pan Ruibin, who is an online store, can't fall behind. He also actively started the live broadcast, hoping to make the business more prosperous. The image of not being able to find a handsome little brother to knit a sweater is very different, which makes the public feel particularly novel, and Pan Ruibin unexpectedly became popular.

After the internet became popular, Pan Ruibin also appeared in the column "Open the Door" hosted by Nigmat, which can be said to have pushed his sweater shop to a broader field of vision. His studio is also expanding, and he continues to recruit unemployed women in his hometown and rural areas to lead everyone to get rich together.

The most commendable thing is that Pan Ruibin's sweater shop is so big that he returned to Do not forget your initiative mind. He just loves knitting sweaters and hopes that this traditional craft will not be lost with the process of mechanization. He also hopes that his customers can put on their sweaters and feel the simplest and sincere warmth between people.

It can be seen from Pan Ruibing that people should not set limits for themselves. If you like something and do it well, let it go. Break the rules and give full play to your advantages, and you will succeed one day.
