A teenager heard that Jack Ma, the president of Alibaba Group, came to his school to give a speech, so he rushed to passed. It happened that there was an interactive session in Jack Ma's speech, where the audience was asked to ask questions, and Jack Ma answered them on the spot.

Although I feel that I am not a piece of gold, I regard myself as a piece of gold." Treat gold like gold, get up early and work hard every day, I believe gold will always shine, but why is it not appreciated by the classmates?"

The young man asked: "What should you position yourself as?"

Ma Yun said: "You have to position yourself as gold. A seed." Then, he explained, "It is true that gold will always shine one day, but gold is passive.

Life is limited and we cannot afford it! Therefore, when we are buried, we might as well be a seed and take the initiative to bury it. The soil on your body should be regarded as the soil that stimulates your own growth, constantly absorbing nutrients, accumulating upward power, allowing your dreams to take root and sprout, and it will grow into a tall tree in a few years. Think about it, a tall tree. A tall tree towers in front of you, who would turn a blind eye?"

2. Classic examples of celebrities who inspire self-breakthrough: It is a lucky person to have Bole in the world

Jiang Kun and Ma Ji met each other , in 1976. This year he and Shi Shengjie went to Beijing to participate in the national folk art performance. As a judge, Ma Ji was already a mainstay in the cross talk world and the final word. He fell in love with this new cross talk talent, and told the experts around him that this young man was very talented and intelligent. As long as he practiced more over time, he would definitely become a great cross talk talent. He wants to transfer Jiang Kun to Beijing and accept him as his disciple to help Jiang Kun become a talent as soon as possible. At that time, Jiang Kun was already well-known in the Heilongjiang Construction Corps and was known as the "New Talent in Quyuan". Transferring him to Beijing would be tantamount to taking money from the bottom of the cauldron for the Corps, and they were unwilling to let him go.

But Ma Ji was not willing to see this young man with training prospects buried at the grassroots level. He thought about it again and again, and finally came up with a clever idea. In order to please the corps and establish a good relationship with the corps leaders, he led a folk art performance team and went straight to Jiang Kun's corps. He staged a condolence performance and did not mention Jiang Kun's affairs to the leadership. He just led the folk art troupe to perform hard. They performed one performance after another, which moved the corps leaders who usually rarely see these stars. Also moved by Ma Ji's spirit of recognizing and loving talents, he decided to let Jiang Kun go to Beijing. Jiang Kun eventually became a new generation leader in the Chinese cross talk industry.

Jiang Kun became successful because of Ma Ji's discovery and recommendation. Fortunately, Jiang Kun inherited Ma Ji's character and always regarded it as his sacred responsibility to discover talents from the grassroots level. In August 1987, Jiang Kun, then the head of the China Radio Rap Troupe, led the troupe to Tieling City, Liaoning Province. However, after just one performance at the stadium, Jiang Kun found that the audience was not interested in the program at all. Jiang Kun, who had never received such a cold reception, quietly went among the masses to understand the situation. The audience told him sincerely: "Your program is not funny at all, and it is far inferior to Zhao Benshan from our Tieling Troupe!" Jiang Kun said doubtfully: "Then let's watch Zhao's program, and we can learn from each other. ”

When Zhao Benshan heard that the performance was for a big celebrity like Jiang Kun, he immediately grabbed a few actors and came with a few broken props in his hands and shoulders. At that time, they performed two programs: "The Blind Man Watches the Lantern" and "1 1=?".

The performance started. Including Jiang Kun, the actors in the rap group were reserved at first, with serious faces and neither talking nor laughing. But as they watched, they couldn't help laughing. stand up. At the end of the performance, Jiang Kun kept praising his performance.

He said that he would recommend Zhao Benshan's program to CCTV, and when he returned to Beijing, he would ceremoniously recommend Zhao Benshan to the folk art circle.

At the National Day Gala that year, Zhao Benshan's "1 1=?" was launched as the opening program. Zhao Benshan became an instant hit on CCTV, and has since become a dazzling star in the Chinese folk art circle and the king of sketches in China!

Without the discovery and recommendation of Ma Ji, there would be no Jiang Kun today; without Jiang Kun, there would be no such thing as Jiang Kun. Bole's discovery and recommendation would not be as successful as today's Zhao Benshan. From these two stories, what we feel is the broad mind and noble character of Bole.

This is the reason why Ma Ji and Jiang Kun became masters of a generation, and the reason why they are respected both in their own industry and in the whole society. Therefore, becoming a Bole requires not only ability, but also a broad mind.
