Champak Ban Gaya Entrepreneur

This is the story of a simple boy named Champak. His family was like every other family in village Sonpur. Facing poverty and somehow trying to make ends meet. But what made champak different from others was his dreams. He dreamt of being in Silicon Valley one day. Often other kids would mock him.  His mother would also shout at him and tell him to help his dad on the farm.  Though, Champak used to be engrossed in books, his circuits, and electronic things.

One day he asks his mom should we ask the village landlord to borrow their laptop for a few days as he wanted to study detailed inventions on the internet. His mom shouted at him: “no need to ask anything from others. How will we be able to return him the favor? What if he asks to mortgage our land?.” Hearing this champak felt sad and dropped that idea for the moment. After a few days, some social workers came to their house along with some interns, they were supposed to study the culture and life of the village along with the standard of living.

When they came to champaks’ house, they were amazed looking at his circuits and notes. Over this Champak told them about his plan for making microchips one day. Among the group, the boy named Avi told Champak, “Dude your idea seems cool, I will give you a laptop for some days. Do your research and if you are successful, I will be the happiest person as I could be helpful to you.”

With this Champak started his research. He wanted some electronic parts also for his experiment. Avi helped in buying those, as even Avi saw the dedication of Champak. Slowly as the days passed, it was time for Avi to leave, and still, champak’s work was incomplete. But Avi surprised him by ordering a new laptop online for him. He told him this is a loan whenever he has money, he can repay him.

Champak worked day and night and finally he was successful in making the code for the microchips. Now he needed a huge amount of money to implement it. He thought hard and went to many landlords for a loan. But everyone refused as they thought he was a novice. During this period, he came to know about the new series ‘Shark Tank’ India where the new business venture would get capital from huge businessmen.

He filled the form and luck favored him as he was shortlisted. His hard work paid off and he got the funding he needed.

Now there was no looking back for him.

Soon he launched his product and patented it. He named his company Jarvis. in. His microchip sold like hotcakes. Soon he became the youngest billionaire entrepreneur. Today he has seven multi-national companies all over the world with a net worth of trillion thousand crore dollars. Bill Gates is trying to reach him. Will Champak be a partner of Bill Gates?

The Lesson Jake Got

It was not long ago when Jake, a 13 year old boy, used to bully people. “AAAAHHHH!!” a kid screams. While Jake “HAHAHA!” just laughs. Jennie, Jake’s older sister, asked him several times to not bully others but Jake, Jake would never listen to her.  Now you must be wondering why I said not long ago. Well, let’s go into a flashback.

Ooooo! I see a new target approaching me, thinks Jake, as he sees the new girl Lisa walking towards him.  “Hi! Could you help me get to room 354?” Lisa asks Jake. “Hello”, Lisa waves her hand in front of Jake as he was too busy thinking on how to bully his new target. “Oh sorry, yeah sure”, Says Jake coming back to reality. After walking some time they reach the room. Lisa thanks Jake and goes into her class. As Jake’s building a plan to bully Lisa his friend approaches him “Jake!! Ma’am is looking for you. Come on let’s go! “

At sports time, Jake sees Lisa walking towards the cricket nets. Ooooo! Is she also in cricket? Yea baby! It’s gonna be super easy to bully her now” this is how Jake normally thinks. In the evening when Lisa was walking out of the school, Jake grabs her bag and pulls her hair. “AAAAAHHHHH! OOWWWW!” Lisa screams in pain, while Jake does what he usually does, laughs and walks away. This continues for sometime, so Lisa asks Jennie to help her out. Jennie and Lisa had become very close friends since the time Lisa joined. Later that evening when the both of them were walking, Jake comes again to do his usual routine when he sees Jennie with Lisa. “Oh no!! Now if I go to bully Lisa Jennie will give me a whole lecture when we get home.” Jake plans on not bullying Lisa that day and just walks away in disappointment. Jake sees Lisa and Jennie together every time he’s going to bully Lisa. He could not tolerate it anymore and approaches Lisa and pulls her hair. “AAAGGHHH”, screams Lisa while Jake runs away quickly before Jennie sees him, but unfortunately Jennie saw him.

Later when at home, Jennie goes to Jake who was sitting on the couch and asks him very politely ”Why do you bully others?” jake was pretty surprised by the way Jennie talked to him. “A-are you ok?” asks Jake considerately, “you have never been so polite towards me. Like EVER”. “Ha-ha!” Jennie laughs. “I am perfectly fine. Now answer my question, why do you bully others?” Jake tells his side of the story, when he was bullied by other kids older to him. They made him think he was weak which made Jake insecure about himself. Until, one day he thought of bullying kids younger to him so that he could prove others that he was not weak.

Jennie heard his story, understood it, and felt pity towards him.  “You should have told this to me before, I could have helped you. Bullying is not the solution to prove that you are strong, it just makes people think that you are a bad person. Which I know you’re not. That way you’ll never find true friends.” Jake thought about what Jennie said over the night. The next day he went and apologized to everyone he had ever bullied including Lisa. Everyone was shocked but they forgave him. He thanked them for being so kind towards him.

“See! Everybody now loves you. That’s why you should never bully anyone. Got it now?” Jennie asks in a playful manner “Mhm” Jake nods his head.
