Young Liu ran away from home. What did his anxious family say to him around the world?

Liu, a teenager, ran away from home and his anxious family searched all over the world. Liu: I went on a trip.

Liu is the founder. He has been on the cover of 20 16 Forbes magazine (Asia edition) and is already a billionaire. In China today, only JD.COM can compete with Alibaba in the field of e-commerce.

But people familiar with Liu's experience know that Liu was born in a poor town in Suqian, Jiangsu. That place is called Longzhen, which is a reclamation and immigration town. According to Liu, the environment in which he grew up was extremely bad, especially the people around him were not rich. Because Liu's father has his own boat, Liu's family is not bad. However, compared with other Internet tycoons, such as Ma, Ma Yun and Lei Jun, Liu is a real person from the bottom of society.

But great men must have had some different experiences when they were young. Liu ran away from home after graduating from junior high school. He bought a ticket, took a bus, a train and a boat, and left this poor village for the first time. But this time, I left without saying goodbye.

It turned out that my father Liu said that if you were admitted to high school, I would take you to a big city like Shanghai. But Liu's father was too busy with farming to take him. One day, I thought, why can't Liu go by himself?

So at 1989, Liu, a 14-or 15-year-old farmer, dressed in 50 yuan money, slippers, big shorts and undershirts that he had saved for a long time, searched all over the village and found a map, as well as a small partner of his peers, Xiaoshi, a neighbor's child.

Although Liu assured Xiaoshi that all expenses would be borne by Liu, Xiaoshi still dared not go with him on the day of re-departure. The reason for Xiaoshi's retreat is simple: we have never been out. What if we lose it and never come back? For rural children who have never been out, Xiaoshi's psychological state should be the most normal. I believe Liu also has this kind of psychological worry, but he went firmly.

The destination of his trip is a town in Huangmei County, Hubei Province. This is the address he saw on the envelope, and the writer is aunt Liu. He bought a ticket to Xuzhou first, and then while waiting for the bus at Xuzhou Station, a little girl held out her hand and said to Liu, Brother, give me some money. Liu, a kind person, didn't think much, and soon gave her twenty cents. At that time, twenty cents was not a small sum, and beggars only gave a penny. Sure enough, the little girl was very happy and soon attracted forty or fifty children around Liu to reach out and ask him for money. Liu was so scared that he ran out for several blocks before he got rid of them. He didn't dare to return to the railway station until evening.

Liu is doing farm work.

On the train, Liu met a "child from another family". A little girl, a family of four traveled to Nanjing by train. The little girl is very beautiful, wearing a skirt and pigtails, sitting in her seat eating cookies and reading new books.

Later, in an interview, Liu said, I didn't know what inferiority complex was. At that time, I stood by and knew what inferiority complex was for the first time. So he sat in the aisle, buried his head and didn't look up all night.

After arriving in Nanjing, Liu looked around and never saw a 10-storey building or a city with lights on at night. He heard that Jinling Hotel has 37 floors, so he asked around and wanted to see it. When he arrived, he made a dozen rounds in Jinling Hotel. He can't imagine what it's like to eat in such a gorgeous upstairs. So he secretly vowed that he would come to Jinling Hotel for dinner in the future. Later, he said that this was the first time he had such an ideal and ambitious mentality.

Later, I went upstream by boat in Nanjing. He said the river was flowing fast. He couldn't help thinking about his life. He thinks that life is so short that he can't live in a village without success. He must go to a big city like Beijing and Shanghai, and don't fall to the bottom of society. This reflection on life also laid the foundation for Liu's later extraordinary.

Liu was interviewed by CCTV.

It took him four days to find his aunt after he went ashore. Here's a detail. He bought fruit with the last dollar because he remembered what his grandmother had said to him. No matter how poor you are, you can't come to the door empty-handed, even if it is two eggs.

When he arrived at his aunt's house, he almost fainted, because Liu's father had just sent a telegram asking if he had arrived here. Not only his aunt's house, but also relatives all over the country. At that time, there was no telephone, and telegraph was the fastest way. Liu's parents have lived in the post office for several days, waiting for the reply of the telegram. They can't eat well or sleep well.

Later, Liu came home and his father didn't hit him. Liu said that his father had never beaten him. That trip left a great shock to Liu, a teenager. For the first time, he felt the vastness of the world, the prosperity outside, and his thoughts on poor life.
