Main business:Pilot, sideline:Music
  Producer & DJ

Flight is my pursuit, music is also.

The pilot is a career that many people can’t hope for, and can fly in the blue sky and white clouds all day long. Whenever someone hears that I am a pilot, I will cast a very envious look. The mystery and high salary are the labels that outsiders put on us.

In fact, our work is not much different from the office workers, but the time is not fixed. It depends on the flight arranged by the company, such as flying a single shift back and forth in the morning, getting up in the morning, washing and wearing uniforms to go to work, physical examination, taking materials, boarding the plane, taking off and landing. Then take off and land, go home.

It seems that we have experienced several cities in a day, but it is just a simple two-point line. There are not many stories. Every time I land safely, it is my biggest wish. Due to the working environment, I have to maintain a highly concentrated state of mind every time, and I have not had much communication. Usually, I listen to songs at home and play the fat house life of the game.

The real contact with the DJ was at the time of the university.The empty personnel license theory test rewarded himself with a disc player. The year the junior year spent in the United States. Because of the chance to meet the black neighbors who made music downstairs, the two had nothing to do with exchanges. Under the influence of black friends, he gradually developed into hiphop, and he was greatly praised by his friends. He threatened to buy his beats for four hundred dollars, and then he could not climb out of the pit.

I just started to explore, and after I liked it, I tried to make my own self-study. Two or three years later, I happened to find that the song I made was still making money, and the hobby of playing the disc became a sideline after the flight.

In 2017, I became a contracted musician for VFine. Usually fly the flight home, sometimes the inspiration is bursting, soaking in the computer for an afternoon, making things really happy, sometimes flying abroad, you can meet like-minded musicians from different places, take Computers communicate together, and the collision of different ideas is very interesting.

After the daily flight comes back, if you have inspiration and ideas, you can make songs, arrange songs, and then give the signing company to help me with the distribution and management. The good songs are basically accompaniment to the rappers, and the income comes from The right to use the song, I sell the song copyright on the VFine platform, the platform will be unified pricing for the good songs according to different purposes.

I am a very persistent geek, the pilot likes electronic music, but I can’t accept music, I have to learn to play the disc, and I can’t accept other people’s music. I have to learn by myself. I am not convinced that I can only make one kind of music. I have to try a variety of styles, and I am not convinced that I can only do electronics. I have to learn to do pop and rap.

Since I did it, I did my best. I feel that I am still a DJ who can jump at the age of 80.

“Relying on the sideline business, I paid off the 300,000 debt owed by starting“
 

Zhang Yu, born in 1986
Main business:Content operation of a well-known Internet company
  Secondary business:Gymmate partner, part-time writer
 

I have done this as a sideline business. I have been in business since 2016 and have been doing it for almost 3 years.

Beginning in 2016, part-time writers are my sideline. In the past two years, the sideline business has an annual income of more than 100,000 yuan, which is almost equal to my job. So far, I have used the sideline business to lose nearly 300,000 debts due to buying a house, learning fitness, and starting a business.

I fell in love with fitness, and it was a coincidence that I developed fitness into a sideline. In 2017, I started a fitness studio with my friends. The venue has more than 300 flats and the annual rent is close to 400,000.

The first two months of the performance was better, and sold more than 100,000 class hours, but later entered the “training season”, and the high rent was hard to bear. Soon, faced with operational problems, had to choose to shut down the gym.

In order to do a good job in the gym, I stopped working for half a year, went to the famous teacher to learn, and began to be full of blood. But then the gym did not work well. I earned almost 2,000 yuan a month, and I couldn’t live myself. More importantly, I had to pay for the mortgage of my hometown, and I had to give some money every month to help my family. I couldn’t bear to tell these things to my family, fearing that they would worry.

At that time, I had some energy focused on the sideline of part-time writers. Usually take some technical articles writing and articles in the field of corporate services. In fact, the reason why I have been doing sideline business all the time has been to solve the economic problems by sideline business.

After the gym was closed, I went to a well-known Internet company to do content operations. My work has always been directly related to writing, and I am writing articles 80% of the time. Outside of work, I also take some part-time writing. I have written for medical companies and entrepreneurs in the education industry. From technical articles to corporate service analysis, some blockchain companies have written their propaganda.

The most spelled time, write to two or three in the morning. The most impressive one, because the other side of the manuscript has to be anxious, had to set the alarm clock at three o’clock in the middle of the night to write a manuscript, wrote six points, and finally delivered the manuscript within the time of the other party.

Sometimes, friends or former partners will recommend some big brand projects, and have a fixed income every month, but after several experiences, I found that this kind of similar outsourcing work is too tired, some money I I don’t want to earn.

After the debt was paid off, I didn’t want to continue to be so tired, so the work started to decrease, but the unit price will increase. Now, I basically write on weekends, two or three times a week, or less. A little income, you can have more time to do what I like, such as reading, traveling, photography.

I basically don’t have entertainment activities, don’t watch TV dramas, don’t watch variety shows, don’t watch Weibo, don’t brush, and insist on fitness, reading and writing. I like to repeat what I like, maybe after 5 or 10 years, I might once again do the fitness business.To turn the sideline business into the main business again, but at this stage, I still have more to learn.

My most real feeling is that you can’t rely solely on the sideline business. You must have the main business to strongly support your basic economic needs. There is a saying that is particularly good: don’t use your hobby to challenge the ability of others to eat.

“It’s hard to make money,”Get ready to play with kids“

Liu Yiyi, born in 1991

Main business: blockchain media reporter, sideline: speculative stocks

No matter whether it is speculative or stock trading, it is actually an investment.

I just graduated in 2014 and worked as an intern at an accounting firm, related to finance. At that time, it was a small bull market in the stock market, colleagues around me, and even went downstairs to buy a dish, and found that the aunt was speculating.

At the time, I basically didn’t understand anything. The operation was very stupid, but I also earned money. The principal invested in the first time went up by 20%. But I also know that this kind of sideline is impossible to support oneself, and the principal is based on wages, which is nothing more than thousands or tens of thousands.

The profit is not high. If you invest 10,000 yuan in it, the doubling of the income can only be 20,000. Basically, it can only be a short-term investment.

The stock, without market news, without knowing anyone or having any understanding of the operation of the capital market, is not making big money.

In 2017, the stock market began to move sideways, and I didn’t play much. The reason why the stocks, or after the speculation, is only hope that you can earn some pocket money by relying on poor information or judgment. At that time, the wages were not high. The stocks were looking forward to earning more than 1,000 yuan and eating a few more.

In March 2018, I switched to a blockchain media to be a blockchain reporter. Since then, I have started to buy Bitcoin and other virtual digital currencies in the true sense. More than 10,000 yuan was invested. In June, the wallet balance doubled and became more than 30,000.

It was a small Bull market, very soon, did not wait for me to heat this money, the market fell down. One of the coins fell by 90%, and my 20,000 pieces were reduced to 2000. The situation of diarrhea in many cottage projects has also occurred from time to time.

The speculation has been fried for so long, and it is really difficult to make money by frequent trading.Because most “speculators” or “investors” have their own trading behaviors that are very bad, chasing up and down, without a trader’s professional literacy, at most they can only earn pocket money.

As with most people, because the main business does not achieve satisfactory income, it can only be supplemented by another way. Some people do micro-business, sell specialty products, some speculate coins, speculative coins, and fried shoes. There is also a sideline that is a certain kind of technical or related to the job, through the sideline to let their future career more choices.

Humanity is profitable and greedy. Many times, even if I know some internal trading information, I know that the dealer will pull the plate, but if I choose not to throw it, it is easy to lose the money I earned.

A lot of people claimed that they realized financial freedom by buying bitcoin. But now, it’s already hard. When are I going to learn about children’s programming, maybe I will do programming in the sideline and do “a teacher who knows the programmer” is not bad.

“Rap rapper during the day, nightclub bartender”

Sun Hang, born in 1995
 

MainBusiness:rapper, sideline:Bartender, music teacher

I have loved music since I was a child, and my sideline is also related to music. ,

My dad is a music fan who has been exposed to music since elementary school. From the elementary school electronic piano vocal music, went to the trumpet of primary school, and later has been in the military band, as the chief trumpeter.

After graduating from the first division in the previous year, I just started thinking about engaging in the business to enter the orchestra, but then I thought that I would practice whispering every day, and I would feel dull. I chose my favorite rap music, and I participated in 2018. The new rap nationwide 46, 18 years and 19 years won the listen up national runner-up.

Don’t love class during college I always like to go outside the school to do some part-time work. At that time, the orchestra would hire us to teach the children. There are 2-4 classes a week, and a class of 300 yuan for 2 hours. There is a special car transfer, just use your spare time to earn some pocket money.

For four years in college, teaching children to teach has become a stable sideline. But as I graduated and started to work full-time, I rarely go to the teacher to teach, and the music is more happy.Happy career.

At present, I am doing music alone, composing myself and making my own performances. I usually go to some livehouses, and the cost per performance is 2000. Performances are not available every day, sometimes up to 6-7 games in a month, sometimes only one.

It’s all about making music, not as fixed as going to work. When time permits, I will go to a clear bar to be a bartender. Originally because I often went, I gradually became a frequent visitor and a boss. Later, I also had time and I was very interested in bartending. I started a bartender.

The bartender is a technical job, and he learned it for three months with the boss. We are from 6:30 to 12:00 every day, from Sunday to Thursday, with a monthly income of 5-6000. I can also compose songs and songs in the usual time. I will be a bartender at night, look at the various guests in the store, and enjoy the wine with my friends. It is very pleasant.

“Swimming coaches and dramas to explore different possibilities of life”

Jiang Fengmian, born in 1990
  Main business:
  A foreign enterprise engineer: Sideline:Swim coach, rehearsal drama
 

In 2012, after I graduated, I worked as an engineer in a foreign company in my hometown of Jiangsu.

At that time, after work, I often participated in swimming competitions in the city and district, and made some famous names. Many people came to ask me how to learn to swim. At the beginning, I provided free and verbal instructions. Later, I began to officially write lesson plans, do propaganda, and start work on this subject. I earned 1,000 yuan in 7 classes.

In that time, my daily schedule was very tight – I got up at 7 o’clock, took the shuttle at 7:30, went to the company at 8:30, got off work at 5 o’clock in the afternoon, went to the swimming pool at 5:30, and had dinner near the swimming pool. At 6:30, I will finish at 8:30 and arrive home after 9:00.

During

, I also participated in a drama performance. After teaching the swimming at 8:30 in the evening, I rushed to a place outside the 10-minute drive to play, usually after the morning. So that I only sleep 5 or 6 hours a day, I have to rely on coffee to support my work.

All those who have heard my story feel that I am tossing.

After half a year, I earned 30,000 yuan by teaching swimming. The performance of the drama is mainly based on the nature of public welfare. Only 2-3 commercial performances have earned thousands of dollars.

The original intention of my sideline business is to buy a house to buy a car, but relying on a monthly salary of more than 8,000 yuan is definitely not enough. But I don’t just want money, the swimming training on the market is fast, my inner impulse is to letMore people are receiving better swimming training.

In addition, for me, swimming and drama are not only the process of output, but also the process of input. They taught me time management and exercised language skills. More importantly, I met a group of people who can play together and care for each other. Although I encountered some bottlenecks and disappointments at work, I was in a good state because of the adjustment and supplement of the sideline.

I believe that the same as the drama and the drama performance are exploring different life possibilities. The drama seems to have a variety of characters, but in the final analysis, it focuses on the curiosity of people and the constant exploration of the professionalism of actors. The same is true for the sideline business. It seems that there is no connection with the main business, but it is also necessary to find deep links and find a little focus.

“Unfinished entrepreneurial dreams, always as a sideline”

Shen Chao, born in 1991

Main Business: Product Manager, Sideline: Content KOL

Since the university, I started to work as a sideline until now.

In 2015, I was admitted to the graduate school of Beijing University. The academic course is relatively easy. I have always had the idea of ​​starting a business and I want to earn some money based on my own ability.

Occasionally, I worked in Beijing for a week, let me go to his house to help him feed the cat, and live in his house. Sending a small business trip, there is a computer at home, let me write it for him. With the increase in the number of help, I later learned that he was doing store marketing in Jingdong, and would meet the needs of the store’s merchants. He thought that he could start a business with friends during the graduate study.

At the time, Taobao had a 1.0 person plan. We set up an account on the platform, and friends contacted the merchant docking resources. We will help the business to promote the business according to the needs of the merchants. Taobao Daren 1.0, 2.0 we are all in sync, and later Jingdong also began to do the recommendation of the live broadcast, we are also following up.

At that time, there could be at least 2000-3000 income in a month, and there are already many among our fellow students. However, due to the unstable amount of orders, the university’s entrepreneurial projects have not been fully implemented. Therefore, after graduating from graduate school in 2018, I chose a professional counterpart product manager with a monthly income of 12K.

Working at 10 o’clock every day at 6 o’clock in the evening, the work is mainly based on the requirements document writing, prototyping, business matching needs, daily operation of the app, etc. The original entrepreneurial project has become a sideline business has been doing.

Now, we are working in the form of an organization, usually writing small manuscripts, taking a product video, 500 yuan per order.And sometimes we will give the product to us. It is easier to write a manuscript. The cycle of filming is not good. You can shoot 2-3 in a short night. You can get it in two days. You can have 1-2W in one month.

Before the editor of the undergraduate science, so the interest in the sideline is higher, and the money earned by the sideline is all invested in equipment. If it is not because it is not so stable, I really want to develop as a main business.

In my mind, the content of KOL’s sideline business is more obsessive than the product manager’s main business, after all, doing what you like is more motivating.
