Have you ever accidentally gotten on a bus that was going out of service?

What do you expect would happen next? The driver would probably open the door and tell you to get off, and they wouldn't start driving until the bus was empty.

But that's not what happened to two tourists in Kyoto.

When they accidentally got on a bus that was going out of service in early June, the driver just closed the doors and drove away with them still on board.

And yes, he knew they were there.

But he was afraid to talk to them because they were foreigners, and he didn't know how to communicate with them.

As The Asahi Shimbun reported, the tourists — a man and a woman — got on the bus through the back door after all the other passengers exited at Kyoto station.

When they realized what had happened, the tourists asked the driver to stop, but he didn't understand them and just kept driving.

He later said he thought it would be best to deal with them at the bus terminal office.

When the driver wouldn't stop, the tourists called the police. An officer spoke to the driver over the phone, and the driver finally stopped.

They had been driving for around 20 minutes, traveling a distance of about 4 kilometers.

The West Japan JR Bus Company said: "We are very sorry for the inconvenience caused. Our employee training was insufficient, and our employee did not handle the situation correctly. We will thoroughly train our employees in the future."

Kyoto has a number of train and subway lines, but some of its most famous sites are most conveniently visited by bus — including Kiyomizudera temple in the east, and the gold-covered Kinkakuji temple in the northwest.

Shakespeare is a greater author (well, maybe was since he's no longer among us in physical reality) who knows how to play with words. I hope this podcast episode will encourage you to discover his oeuvre and get you interested into finding out more stuff about him!

Everyday English with David

粤读时光，看见生活中嘅光。

前几日我喺得到听到一篇好好嘅文章，
所以同你分享一下。

呢篇文章系关于创业嘅，
不过我觉得无论你对创业有冇兴趣，
呢篇文章都好有启发性，
下面我会用广东话复述呢篇文章。 

如果你想创业，
咁就要了解一个不成文嘅创业标准，
就系1000个粉丝。
意思系一个新产品只有积累咗1000个用户，
先算系站稳咗脚跟。 

点解系1000个粉丝呢？
呢个理论其实系嚟自凯文凯利嘅《技术元素》。
凯文凯利系一个好犀利嘅人，
佢喺另一本书《失控》入面预言过网络时代嘅到嚟，
乔布斯亦都曾经喺斯坦福大学嘅演讲入面提及过佢，
乔布斯话佢嘅佢嘅杂志《连线》系佢嗰个时代嘅圣经。

讲翻转头哈，
点解系1000个粉丝呢？
呢个理论系凯文凯利提出嚟嘅，
理论系，
如果你有1000个优质粉丝，
假设每个粉丝每年喺你身上消费100美金，
咁你每年就有10万美金嘅收益，
一般就足够活落去。

呢个1000个粉丝嘅标准，
我喺Youtube都睇到咗，
YouTube会将自己嘅广告收益分俾上传视频嘅人，
但系要求频道要有至少1000个粉丝。
所以1000个粉丝就系获得收益嘅标准。

到底用乜嘢方法先可以拉到 1000个用户呢？
呢篇文章总结咗三个方法，
第一个方法系：
揾啱地方捞鱼。
意思系你要揾到目标用户聚集嘅地方。
创业公司首先要搞清楚边度先系目标用户聚集嘅地方，
跟住去拉用户。

国外有一个交友软件叫Tinder，
同国内嘅陌陌差唔多。
佢啱啱创立嗰时，
选择咗去大学校园揾用户，
点解要去大学？
因为大学单身嘅人多，
而且佢哋都系拍拖嘅年纪。
Tinder喺大学校园非常受欢迎，
好快就获得咗一大批嘅用户。

打车软件Lyft都系揾啱咗地方，
所以获得咗一大批用户。
佢哋去边度稳用户？
创业公司所在地。
Lyft揾咗创业公司嘅地址，
跟住叫员工免费送雪糕俾佢哋，
再顺便发咗Lyft嘅打车优惠码俾佢哋。
后来呢啲食咗雪糕嘅员工就称为咗Lyft嘅第一批用户。

除咗线下，
都有啲创业公司喺线上揾到咗第一批用户，
好似Netflix，
Netflix请咗一个学生，
扮成电影发烧友，
潜入咗电影论坛，
佢先通站长、版主、活跃用户搞好关系，
跟住在随住时间推移，
揾机会唔经意咁提起有一个叫Netflix嘅新网站，
跟住就帮Netflix拉咗一大班高质量嘅用户。

下面再讲吓第二个快速积累用户嘅方法，
加心理杠杆。
乜嘢叫心理杠杆？
就系利用心理因素，
对用户施加影响。
最常用嘅心理杠杆系“朋友推荐”。
好似Pinterest同Quara啱啱成立嗰时，
都用咗呢个方法。


第三个方法就系借用影响力。
意思系揾大V或者名人帮你宣传。

我觉得呢个方法好有效，
亦都系常见嘅方法。
宜家如果你睇公众号，
你都可以睇到公众号之间嘅互相推荐，
其实呢个方法几好，
可以互相积累粉丝。

我呢个公众号仲好细，
如果有大V觉得唔错，
想帮我宣传一下，
我肯定会好感激你。

除咗揾大V同名人之外，
仲有一种方法，
就系跟紧新闻事件。
写同新闻热点相关嘅文章，
因为同热点相关嘅文章比较容易俾人睇到，
所以如果你有订阅公众号，
你就会发现有好多人都会跟热点写文章，
呢个系快速积累用户嘅好方法。

以上就系快速积累前1000个用户嘅方法啦。

It is very important to use contractions in your speech. They are not informal, they are always required. I discuss this in today's podcast.
