Lots of us have dreams of doing big business when we grow up.However,Moziah Bridges,a 13-year-old boy in the US,says that we can start now!
Bridges is now the CEO of his Mo's Bows company.He has sold 200,000(1.24million yuan) worth of handmade bow ties(领结)and other men's accessories (饰品).The boy designs all the bow ties together with his seven other workers,including his mother and grandmother.
"Mo is the CEO of the company,but I'm the CEO of Mo,"Bridge's grandma said.
About four years ago,when Bridge went shopping for bow ties,he found they were only in"ugly"black and red.He wanted a change.So he asked his grandma to teach him how to sew(缝),and finally developed the talent of creating bow ties.However,his very first bow tie didn't look nice.
"It's like something that a clown(小丑) would wear,"he said.But the young sewer kept on practicing.He used colorful cloth with different pictures.And his parents and friends started to like his works.He tried to sell them online to several stores in the south.Mo's Bows soon became popular.Bridges met his first investor(投资者),Daymond John,CEO of the famous clothes brand FUBU.John not only invested money in Mo's Bows,but he also introduced Bridges to power players in the fashion and business industries.Now the 13-year-old's business has shyrocked(猛涨).As Bridges'mother said,"you don't have to wait until you're older.If you have a dream,go for it."
