Jack Ma’s success story

A successful entrepreneur has three factors: vision, mind and strength. Never forget your dream on the first day. Your dream is the greatest thing in the world, which is to help others succeed. The following is what I compiled for you. I hope it will be helpful to you!

Chapter 1: Regretful Investors

On March 22, 2013, the 20th meeting of the Huaxia Alumni Association Held in our company. My idols such as Ma Huateng, Li Yanju, Feng Lun, Shen Guojun, Chen Dongsheng, Li Dongsheng, etc. are all here.

The morning meeting was held in Binjiang Park. Ma Huateng said: "This is my first time here, but I have been to Alibaba once before and participated in the 'West Lake Sword Forum' 10 years ago. At that time, everyone's company When I was very young, I remember that Ma Yun still used a broken car.”

Ma Yun corrected with a smile: “It’s not a good car, it’s a white Honda, but it’s new, haha!”

Ma Huateng said, "When Taobao was first launched, Jack Ma told me that I had the opportunity to invest 15%. First, I was not optimistic about it, and secondly, I felt that the proportion was too small, so I had to invest It only accounted for 50%. Now I regret it to death."

At this time, another entrepreneur said: "Me too, I had 500 million yuan in hand, and someone suggested that I invest in Tencent. , I often see Ma Huateng, but he never once explained to me what Tencent is, otherwise I would do whatever I want to do in charity."

The bigger my career gets, the more I do. The more things we miss along the way, the bigger things we miss. This is dialectical.

Although the big guys acted very relaxedly when sharing, and the audience laughed it off, in fact, some "misses" will become eternal pain in their hearts, I think.

Chapter 2: Revitalizing Yue Opera

Zhejiang Shengzhou is the hometown of Yue Opera. Song Weiping, the boss of Greentown Group, is from Shengzhou, Jack Ma is the son-in-law of Shengzhou, and Mao Weitao is the first person in Yue Opera, so the three People often gather together for the development of Yue Opera.

Ma Yun and Song Weiping have already prepared a project for joint investment in Yue Opera, but everyone feels that it is not enough and the investment method is not hesitant enough. So, at a recent gathering, they came up with a new idea: Jack Ma and Song Weiping will play 10 card games in 2013, with five players from each side, and the losing side will donate a sum of money to the project. Everyone thought this was a good idea, and the bickering started before the fight started.

Ma Yun said: "Although I have only played this kind of poker for three years, I am already invincible."

Song Weiping said: "People who have only played for two or three years will know it. If you have this illusion, we will let you know how big the gap is between people who have been playing poker for 50 years and those who have been playing poker for 3 years."

Ma Yun: "Poker age is the same as age, not more. The bigger the better. When I was young, I was like "peeing ten feet in the wind", but when I was older, I was like "bowing down and getting my shoes wet."

In the end, everyone still proposed that in addition to the losing side each time, the total score at the end of the year would be if Jack Ma. If he loses, Jack Ma will go to Greentown to work as a security guard for a week; if Song Weiping loses, Song Weiping will go to Alibaba to work as a security guard for a week. And you must wear a security uniform. If there are people watching, you must hold your head high like in the Spring Festival Gala sketch and say in Henan dialect: "Chewing up makes me proud."

Ma Yun was extremely excited after hearing this suggestion. He made fists with both hands and kept beating the dining table.

Let us wait and see whether "Song Baoan" or "Ma Baoan" will be on guard at the end of 2013.

Chapter 3: Haircut

Ma Yun’s brain works quickly, so his hair grows quickly. During the National Day in 2012, Jack Ma went with the Nature Conservancy to inspect the primeval forests of Scotland with environmental protection issues. For the sake of convenience, Ma Yun shaved his head before departure. Although Shi Yuzhu did not go, a friend who went with him sent him the photo, and Shi Yuzhu posted the photo on Weibo.

As a result, Ma Yun's bald head triggered various speculations in the media. One of the more "consistent" opinions was: There were two small e-commerce websites that were competing for prices in a lively manner. Who would Ma Yun and Shi Yuzhu bet on? Will win, but in the end Jack Ma lost, so he shaved his head. When friends came to ask Ma Yun for confirmation, Ma Yun always said: "I never bet with others when the answer is not in my pocket.

"

It is impossible for Jack Ma and Shi Yuzhu to bet about small websites. I also posted on Weibo: "Have you ever seen senior classmates bet about things in lower grades?"

George is Jack Ma’s “royal” barber and also our friend. He often serves as the only or “only two” Chinese judge in hairdressing competitions held in Russia, Germany, Japan and other places. George’s hometown is. Jiangsu Xuyi, we often "praise him": Xuyi has only produced three things in history, Zhu Yuanzhang, Crayfish and George

Having a haircut is a good leisure activity for Jack Ma, starting from shampooing. You can't make phone calls or watch the news for an hour and a half before your haircut. Many of Jack Ma's interesting stories and classic sentences were told to us during the haircut, such as "The deaf heard the mute say that the blind saw ghosts" and so on. , Ma Yun often laughs so loudly that sometimes he will startle three or four people outside the barber box. When he is getting a haircut, someone will often come over and ask: "Ma Yun, do you still know me?"

What follows is usually something like this. In such a scene, Ma Yun said: "It looks familiar. If you remind me of the 3 words in your name I will know who you are. ”

“I am Liu Yufeng, who attended the second Internet Business Conference 8 years ago, and you even shook hands with me. "He and the others obviously overestimated Ma Yun's memory.

But in recent months, they have been very busy every time they have to get their hair cut. One time was on Wu Xiaoli's show - "Walking with Excellence" on Zhejiang Satellite TV , people couldn’t stand it anymore, so they cut Ma Yun’s hair on the spot. Another time was the Entrepreneurs Club annual meeting, and Ma Yun had a show, and another time he was getting his hair cut on the spot, and then there was the annual economic figure award, and he was doing it on the spot in CCTV’s “Big Pants”. After cutting his hair, Ma Yun joked: "I have saved a lot of money by cutting my hair in the past few months. ”
