This sentence is an inspirational speech by Li Ka-shing. The entire sentence is as follows:

When you put down your dignity to make money, it means you are mature.

When you use money to earn back face, it means you have succeeded.

When you can make money with your face, it means you are already a character.

When you still stay there drinking, bragging, pretending to understand nothing, and only love the so-called face, it means that this is what you will do in your life.

This is very important. This is the only way for everyone to mature.
