    An international sensation, Dragon's Den features entrepreneurs pitching for investment in the Den from our Dragons, five venture capitalists willing to invest their own money in exchange for equity.

    This guy is a genius. He knew he was very unlikely going to get any dragon, but he went there marketing his product impeccably. And I now can see he's doing well.

    well the dude is the most stoic ive ever seen on these shows. Ive never seen someone took so many nos with such a open door mind that ive ever seen. Its like everything went perfectly well despite the dragons not wanting to invest

    @algalgod159 9 месяцев назад +3

    Everyone talking about how he overturned Peter's argument, but he was actually very wrong: he said proof of online sales translate to offline retail sales, but that is completely false: when people see competitor bottles side by side on a shelf with one clearly being an outlier, the decision of the customer is then way different from going through an exclusive web sales funnel augmented with lots of advertisement. So he might have overturned Peter, but he won't overturn me ^^

      Your part on English is correct; young HKers speak very, very good English these days.
      But the name - his Chinese name (given by parents) won’t be Christian. His English name will likely be self-given in his teens / at some point during studies. Extremely common in HK.
