西單女孩身價過億 自主創業賣牙膏

Ren Yueli was once a street singer in an underground passage in Xidan, in downtown Beijing. Her interpretation of the song "Angel's Wings" went viral online in 2009. Netizens named her the "Xidan girl."

任月麗曾經是北京西單地下通道的街頭歌手。2009年，她因翻唱歌曲《天使的翅膀》而在網上爆紅。網民也把她稱作“西單女孩”。

More recently, Ren once again entered the public eye. This time it was not her songs but her successful transformation into a businesswoman that drew attention. A tooth paste advertisement for the brand of a toothpaste that Ren now manages got played on the big screen in New York City's Times Square.

最近，任月麗再次進入大衆視野。這一次，引來人們注意的並不是她的歌聲，而是她成功轉型爲一名商業女性。在紐約時代廣場的大屏幕上，播放着任月麗經營的一款牙膏的廣告。

Well-known writer Su Qin said on her Weibo that Ren's business enterprise had already propelled her into the stratum of multimillionaires. "Xidan girl" seemed to approve of the writer's message, re-posting from her Weibo with a smiling emoji added at the end.

知名作家蘇芩在她的微博上表示，任月麗的企業已經把她推入了千萬富翁的行列。“西單女孩”似乎同意作者的觀點，在她的微博上轉發了這則評論，並在結尾添加上了一個笑臉。

However, Ren said in an interview with Chengdu Commercial Daily: "It is an exaggerationto say that I'm a multimillionaire. That's just the valuation of our products. Business is sort of a secondary profession for me; I am still a singer, and that's my main career."

不過，任月麗在《成都商業日報》的一次採訪中說道：“說我是千萬富翁有點兒誇張。那只是對產品的估值。商業是我的第二職業；我還是個歌手，這是我的主業。”

Ren said the idea to invest in toothpaste came from a friend of hers, who successfully convinced Ren to get involved. Compared with her singing career, Ren said business has been going very smoothly: "I have the best partner and the best team, so I do not worry about sales or recognition," said Ren.

任月麗表示，投資牙膏的想法來自她的一個朋友，這位朋友成功地勸說任入夥。相比歌唱事業，她說，商業發展很順利：“我擁有最好的合夥人和團隊，所以我不用擔心銷售和品牌認知，”

When asked about the future, she made no secret of her ambition. Ren said: "I want to be the next Dong Mingzhu!”

當被問到未來時，她並沒有隱藏自己的野心。任月麗表示：“我想成爲下一個董明珠！”
