Theory of Disenchantment Nine: Taking Photos/Knowing xxx ≠ Strong Ability

Recently, I saw that some other bloggers also mentioned this topic, and everyone knows a little bit about it. Today, I will explain it in more detail.

Taking photos generally means you are face-to-face with someone, and under normal circumstances, these photos mainly serve as a memento or provide a preliminary impression of the other person. This is a common practice during meetings (group photos shared in TG chats for future memory and collaboration).

However, a small number of people mistakenly think that taking photos and getting to know each other is part of their strength; there is also a small group of people who use this method to create a facade for their business.

In simple terms, it goes like this: Taking photos → Posting for marketing → Screening target users → Driving traffic to related communities/services/collaboration, forming a closed loop.

Every time I see someone posting a group photo with a very touching caption, and later learn about the actual situation on-site, this extreme contrast is often the most interesting joke.

So how can we identify this? You can follow these steps:

➣ Check if the group photo was taken in a public place or a private setting. A public setting likely means it was an interactive segment arranged by the organizer or a coincidence, but that doesn't mean a private setting is necessarily good; they might just be xxx's little brother/front. Therefore, it can only serve as an initial screening.

➣ Whether it's a donkey or a horse, just take it out for a walk, and you'll know. If you really have the strength, when you introduce business/collaboration to xxx, the other party will definitely not refuse; if you can't even call it out, how good can that relationship be?

No more talking, I have to go eat with Lao Ma and Lao Tou, and see if they have made up. See you next time.
