Check the progress here! TIME-STAMPED SHOW NOTES: [00:27] Today’s Topic: What You Can Learn From the Chinese About Business [00:35] Eric has been reading a book AI Superpowers. [00:54] As China was becoming a big world power, they had a lot of catching up to do when it came to the internet/technology. [01:15] So, there was a lot of copying. [01:28] Look at what other people are doing and out-execute them. [02:05] Copying caught them up, but now they are the innovators. [02:20] The Chinese don’t just work five days, 9-5. [02:35] If you love what you’re doing, you won’t get burned out. [02:50] You don’t need a life. [03:10] The Chinese work 9am-9pm, 6 days per week. [03:33] Eric and Neil work 7 days per week and they don’t get burned out. [04:15] Even in America, copying is becoming more acceptable. [04:45] All the apps with “Stories” copied Snapchat. [05:25] Noah Kagan copied a lot from HelloBar. [06:00] WeChat is a powerful app. [07:03] Leverage the best concepts and apply them to your business. [07:26] That’s it for today!
