China's most successful story of Jack Ma！
Dare to dare to do
A good individual is not necessarily comprehensive, Jack Ma three entrance failed, and finally went to a very ordinary college, but he aspires to be high, flexible mind, you can engage in activities, can not do, dare to dare to desperately.
Many people want to start a business, but they also seem to have a similarly non-business reasons: I have no money, if I have money, how? ... It seems that as long as the money, he will certainly be successful entrepreneurship.
But Jack Ma's entrepreneurial experience tells us that no money, the same can be a business, the same can create a great career.
Jack Ma has three entrepreneurial experiences, start-up no money.
The first time: founder of Haibo Translation Agency
The reason why Jack Ma is going to run a translation agency is mainly based on three considerations: 1. At that time, many foreign trade companies in Hangzhou needed a large number of full-time or part-time foreign language translators; 2. his own orders in this area were too much and he was really busy But come; 3. At that time, Hangzhou did not have a professional translation agency.
Many people have ideas and never do anything. But Jack Ma had the idea, but it is immediate action. At that time in 1992, Jack Ma was a young teacher at Hangzhou Institute of Electronic Industry. She was 28 years old and had worked for four years and earned less than 100 yuan a month. But no money, not a problem, he found several partners to start a business, all in all the efforts to set up the first professional translation agency in Hangzhou.
Start of business, but also struggling, the first month, the entire income of translation agencies was only 700 yuan, while the monthly rent was 2,400 yuan. So kind colleagues and friends advised Jack Ma do not scrape, and even the confidence of several partners have been shaken. However, Jack Ma never thought of giving up. In order to maintain the survival of the translation agency, Jack Ma began to sell underwear, gifts, medicines and other commodities, marketed like many salespersons, suffered humiliation and looked down upon.
For three years, the translation agency relied on Jack Ma to sell these groceries to survive. In 1995, the translation agency started to make profits. Now, Haibo translation agency has become the largest professional translation agency in Hangzhou. Although it can not be compared with today's Alibaba, Haibor Translation Agency also laid a heavy blow in Jack Ma's entrepreneurial experience.
Haibo translation agency to Jack Ma biggest revelation is: never give up.
No money, as long as you never give up, you can be successful.
Second: China Yellow Pages founded
China Yellow Pages is China's first website, though it is extremely rough a website. The website was built on the experience of Jack Ma to the United States. In early 1995, Jack Ma visited a network company of friends in Seattle and witnessed the magic of the Internet. Immediately after realizing the tremendous development prospect of the Internet in the future, Jack Ma decided to return home to make Internet.
Start business, Jack Ma still no money, all the family members only 6,000 yuan. So he also sold the Haibo translation office furniture, borrow money around with friends and relatives, which cohesive enough for 80,000 yuan. Coupled with the investment of two friends, a total of only 100000 yuan. For a network company, the district 100,000 yuan, it is too shabby.
Many people say that doing network companies, not a few millions of millions is not to play. Others say that today's environment is completely different from the time when Jack Ma founded the China Yellow Pages. At that time, 100,000 was OK and certainly not now. I say this is all an excuse. Those who say such things are unlikely to achieve any great accomplishments in their life because they see all the difficulties in their eyes.
For China Yellow Pages, the initial founding, funding is indeed the biggest problem. Due to large expenses, business and less, the most miserable time, the company bank account only 200 yuan in cash. But Jack Ma overcame difficulties by his indomitable spirit, turning millions into sales from zero.
Of course, China Yellow Pages was later acquired by Hangzhou Telecom. But I think the Chinese Yellow Pages are still successful in Jack Ma.
Third: Alibaba founder
Alibaba is undoubtedly a miracle in the history of China's Internet. This miracle was created by Jack Ma and his team.
However, Alibaba start a business, not much money, 500,000, is a patchwork of 18 individuals patchwork. 500,000, is all their family background. However, this is 500,000, Jack Ma shouted the declaration: We want to build the world's largest e-commerce company, to enter the top ten global web site!
That is 1999. In 1999, the Internet in China had entered a white-hot state. Venture capitalists from overseas ventured to invest money in Chinese Internet companies, and Internet companies also frantically burned money. 500,000, just like Sina, Sohu, Netease such a large portal a small advertising costs only. Alibaba venture start is quite difficult, each person's salary is only 500 yuan, the company's spending penny broke in half to use. Go out to work, carry forward the "go out basically rely on" spirit, rarely taxi. It is said that once, everyone went out to buy things, a lot of things, there is no way, had to fight. Everyone waving to the taxi on the road, came to a Santana, they are not sitting waved, until a Xiali, they sit down, because Xiali cost 2 yuan cheaper than Santana.
Alibaba has been because of funding problems, to almost impossible to maintain its position.
Eight years have passed.
November 6, 2007, Alibaba listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, the market value of 20 billion US dollars, becoming China's largest Internet company market value. Jack Ma and his entrepreneurial team, which created the biggest miracle in the history of China's Internet.
Most Chinese people want to start their own businesses are the same, think thousands of ways at night, get up the same way in the morning. They are smarter than Jack Ma and come up with a lot of good start-ups, but they never did it. Because they have too many excuses and reasons.
"I have no money." They all think so.
So, they continue their mediocre life.
