On a cold winter day, I was standing on the balcony, receiving the gift of warm sunshine, "Recycle xxx,xxx,xxx" once again cut through a brief period of tranquility, the words were powerful, as if the whole world was compromised by his thick and noisy voice.

The newborn baby birds are shrinking in the nest, chirping and chirping, and the mother bird caught the insects and flew back to feed the loudest one.

A while ago to go to the gym, the coach forced to talk to me, and he talked about the theoretical knowledge of sports for a long time, and finally he sighed helplessly: in fact, our line of work is to eat by mouth.

I can't help but think, what is the core competitiveness of those who collect rags? This is an underestimated profession, people think is to pick up cardboard boxes on the side of the road, recycling empty bottles so simple, but also, that kind of people have, are some 5, 60 years old ladies, and I am here to discuss, not them, but the type defined in the previous article: riding a battery car, carrying a trombone, perhaps wearing a broken duck-tongued hat on the head, dedicated to surround the interior of the neighborhoods of the uncle and They are mostly distributed between 40-60 years old.

After a short reflection, I came up with the answer - sound, their core competence is sound. The physical aspect is of course important, as it determines the length of time they can work and their ability to resist weather changes, but it is all about the foundation of a substantial sale. Assuming they are merchants and customers are neighborhood residents, the only link that can establish the relationship between the two is "sound," the vocal cords vibrate, or the electronic speakers play out, or the bells shake out, a variety of sounds intertwined, looking for potential customers who prefer a certain sound, so the sound of the item, there can be A variety of ways to play, serving the same purpose - the transaction.

Experiments have found that people believe that a thick voice represents a certain kind of authority, and they are more likely to work with and follow the advice of someone who has such a voice. Besides, as a student of phonetics, phonemic, semantics, pragmatics and lexicography, I found that even for short sentences consisting of only a few words, the choice of the level of the vocabulary, the combination of words, the change of intonation, the structure of syntax and the duration of pauses can greatly affect the customer's perception of the sentence. ...... It also greatly affects the customer's preference for ragging. As you can see, the success or failure of competition is often in the details.

A highly intelligent rag collector, in addition to the application of the above expertise, of course, know how to adapt to the time and place, flexible. But human nature is always the same, the same as always, to win the favor of customers, some key points must be maintained as always, people want to "hear" you: every day to collect - that means you are diligent; every day the voice is the same - research shows that "familiarity "The other, according to local conditions, such as to meet the cultural level of local people, appropriate adjustment of the wording of the collection of rags, a good survey of the community's demographic structure, more women? ..... The length of each syllable, the force of the occurrence...etc. can be modified accordingly. . etc, if in the rainy day also insist on coming out to collect, it will more win some people's sympathy and compassion, good feeling plus points, help improve the secondary transaction rate, establish a stable trading relationship.

All of the above are applicable to the human voice, but the vocal cords or speakers, the output effect is still different, the advantages and disadvantages of the vendors also need to think about the trade-offs. Not listed here.

For shaking the bell, that is some of the older, favoring cardboard boxes and empty bottles, and occasionally collect some discarded electronic products, they have been advanced equipment in this era of rapid development of the old man has been thrown off a small distance, and the limited changes in the bell, but also more difficult to expand the possibilities of this medium for trade. Sympathize with them.

By the way, recently there are a few more rice sellers in the community, all walking, relying on vocal cord vibration sound, and infrequent old man sharpening kitchen knives the same.

The development of technology has pulled this group of people back from the edge of their declining professions and back to the streets; but time has changed, society is not the same as it was then, and it seems that an aging society has stimulated the rise of this group, but the total demand is decreasing. And technology in their hands has caused noise pollution to the general population, which is a side I do not want to see. (The first half of the sentence a write feel the pattern so high oh, the second half of the sentence fall back to the grassroots reality ...)

What am I worried about? Once the people are many, they will have to align again.
