☺This business is really hard to get into. I think you have to know the right people. It's really cut-throat. You have to be very determined and very focused and very disciplined and know that there's going to be a lot of work ahead of you to (you know) make it in this business. (It is~) It's a lot of hard work, and (um) you know I think once you're cut out for that and you really understand what that means, I think then you can succeed.
要進這一行很不容易。我覺得，你必須要找對人。而且這一行競爭真得非常激烈。你必須要很有決心，非常專注，非常自律，而且要有心理準備：接下來你還要付出很多的努力，才有可能在這一行出人頭地。你必須非常非常努力，我覺得，嗯～如果你真的是吃這行飯的，而且你也真得瞭解我說得這些，我想你就有可能成功。
【心得】開工囉～努力掙錢期待下個假期到來吧～

這一行大家根本都搶破頭想擠進來。我認為，你首先得有適合的人脈，而且這一行真的十分殘酷。你必須專心致志，且對自己非常嚴苛，並得先做好心理準備：前方會有好一段艱難的路得走，才有可能在這行出人頭地。你得付出許多心力，而一旦你了解這一切的代價後，我想你便有可能成功。
