Third Entrepreneurship: Reflecting on Lessons Learned
In 2007, Zhuge Feng joined a supermarket company to develop POS systems. Originally a technical researcher, he volunteered to work at the company's Guangzhou branch. Within a year, the Guangzhou branch had established its dominant position, surpassing the Xiamen branch. "At that time, I was willing to be a follower rather than a leader, provided that the boss offered me some assurance," Zhuge Feng recalled. He had repeatedly inquired about his future career prospects, but the boss never gave a clear response. Although the boss verbally promised a redistribution of profits, an excited Zhuge Feng neglected to sign a written contract, and by the beginning of the following year, the boss went back on his word.
"When I left, the boss looked at me like an enemy. However, I have always believed that in the Chinese market, one must learn to share with others," Zhuge Feng said. Since then, whether through collaboration or independent operation, he has been committed to maximizing the interests of others. "I once promised that boss that I would never become his competitor." During his third attempt at entrepreneurship upon returning to the industry, he struggled with what business to pursue, eventually choosing to develop a cash register system.
The development of the cash register system was also not smooth sailing. In October 2008, as the company prepared to launch the R&D of relevant products, Zhuge Feng engaged a long-time friend from a university to handle the development, having agreed on terms and paid a deposit. However, the product, which was originally scheduled to be completed within nine months, had only a design framework at this point.
第三次创业：经验与教训的总结
2007年，诸葛风加入了一家商超公司从事POS系统的开发。原本从事技术研发的他，主动请缨前往广州办事处工作。仅用一年时间，广州办事处就确立了主导地位，取代了厦门的办事处。“当时的情况下，我宁愿做一个执行者而非领头羊，前提是老板能给予明确的保障。”诸葛风回忆道。他曾多次询问自己的职业发展，但老板始终没有明确表态。尽管老板口头允诺重新分配利润，但兴奋之中的诸葛风忽略了签署书面合同，结果第二年年初，老板便变卦了。
“离开时，老板看我的眼神就像看仇人一样。但我始终认为，在中国做市场，必须学会与人分享。”诸葛风说。此后，无论是选择合作还是独立运作，他都致力于实现他人利益的最大化。“我曾向那位老板承诺，绝不成为他的竞争对手。”回归本行的第三次创业过程中，关于业务方向的选择一度让他陷入矛盾，最终，他选择了开发收银系统。
然而，收银系统的开发之路也并非一帆风顺。2008年10月，公司准备着手研发相关产品，诸葛风邀请了一位任职于高校的多年老友负责研发，并谈妥了条件且预付了定金。可是直到现在，原定在9个月内完成的产品却只有一个设计框架。
