I was only seven years old when my mother divorced my father. My sister and Zhou gave it to my mother Ling Baoer. 1968 In Hong Kong, it is hard to imagine that my mother takes our three children to make a living. In order to make ends meet, my mother took two jobs by herself. We are all smart and sensible, which makes mom feel at ease. Especially me, because of my excellent grades, I am most loved by my mother.
At that time, our three children were all growing up, so no matter how difficult it was, every week my mother would weigh some meat or buy tail fish to add food to us. Whenever I eat these rich "big meals", as soon as the dishes are served, I will serve them and pick out the good ones. My sister and I are very sensible and never argue with me. But my appetite is so small that I can't eat any more after eating two pieces. Then, I started fooling around. I always pick two pieces, chew them in my mouth twice, and then spit them on the plate. I chewed it, but my sister didn't eat it!
In order not to waste, mother had to eat by herself. My mother criticized me for this, but it didn't help at all. Fortunately, I did well in other aspects. After a long time, my mother followed me. Son, how can you be naughty?
But once, my mother was really angry and gave me a good lesson. On that occasion, my mother didn't get paid for two months, and finally took some money from home and bought some chicken legs, which were golden and fragrant. As soon as the food was served, I climbed onto the table like a little monkey, grabbed a chicken leg with my hand and chewed it, while making faces at my sister. Inadvertently, the hand slipped and the chicken leg fell to the ground, covered with dust, and landed next to a pool of chicken shit.
Mother was angry and distressed. Are these chicken legs easy to buy? Think about my usual naughty performance. My mother took a mulberry tree and hit me a dozen times: "You don't know how to cherish it if you are naughty!" " "It wasn't until my elder sister hurriedly protected me that my mother put down the mulberries and hugged the three of us and wept bitterly.
I cried for a long time before I started eating. Mother picked up the chicken leg, washed it with boiling water and ate it herself. That night, my mother caressed my wound: "Does it still hurt?" "It doesn't hurt." "Will you be naughty next time?" In the dark, I blinked and smiled "hee hee": "Go to sleep, mom, I have class tomorrow."
In 200 1 year, when my mother and I went to Phoenix TV, we talked about the past again.
"Yes, he was really naughty! I don't know, this food is hard to come by, and I don't cherish it at all. " Mother smiled kindly.
"No, mom, I know how to cherish," I stopped, and my voice began to choke. "Do you think, if I don't get the chicken leg to the ground, would you like to eat it? In those years, you gave us all the delicious food, and you ate pickles all day! So we came up with this idea. After I chewed up a few pieces of meat, we had an excuse not to eat. Only in this way will you eat! "
When my mother heard this, she got excited: "Actually, I should have thought of it." You are so smart and sensible, why are you so naughty when you eat? "Mother choked up and took out a handkerchief to wipe her eyes.
I hung two lines of tears and smiled. In front of hundreds of millions of viewers, our mother and son embraced each other. Countless viewers also shed tears at this moment.
Although I have performed it countless times, I want to say that my best play was when I was seven years old. It was a love and affection with blood thicker than water, and the only audience was my mother.

Regarding entrepreneurship, Ma Yun believes that the key to Chinese entrepreneurship is not how excellent your ideas, ideas or dreams are, but whether you are willing to pay all the costs for it and go all out to prove it right. He said: "Entrepreneurship can't stay in ideas and fantasies; There can be countless ideas, but only one action. "
1, don't stay creative.
Nowadays, many entrepreneurs like to talk about the direction and strategy, but often ignore the actual implementation. Ma Yun believes that being a business is not just about being creative. Creativity is an important part of enterprise operation, but it is only a part, and more importantly, it is implemented in every work.
In the first promotion of Win in China in the second season, Ma Yun made an objective comment on the ideas put forward by Xerox, such as taking the road of characteristic integration, making a key combination of sanitary ware, devoting himself to standard setting and brand building, processing original equipment manufacturers, making a national sanitary ware brand, and the positive mentality conveyed in his conversation.
Ma Yun fully affirmed his mentality and entrepreneurial spirit. He also affirmed Xerox's firm belief and insisted on his own merger and integration, which are the excellent qualities of entrepreneurs and gave him great affirmation. But at the same time, Ma Yun pointed out that among the elements of integration, Xerox is talking about ideas and confidence. Ma Yun believes that this idea is not the most valuable thing. What is really valuable is the value created by entrepreneurs, which is the result of down-to-earth work. Many people think that Ma Yun's success is due to his excellent ideas, but Ma Yun said that there are no excellent ideas in this world, only down-to-earth results. Therefore, Ma suggested that Xerox should not use his own ideas to integrate others, but should use the value he created to bring benefits to others.
Ma Yun thinks: Never talk about ideas when the company is still very young. Others may disagree with your idea, but they will do as you say. Let others say that your idea is good, never say that your idea is good, it will be endless. If you quarrel with others, others will agree. If you quarrel with others, you will have a problem. Because the idea is difficult to consider, only the result can be considered.
I don't think having a result is necessarily a success, but having no result is definitely a failure.
2. First-class execution
Ma Yun and Masayoshi Son discussed such a question: which is more important, first-class ideas plus third-rate implementation, or third-rate ideas plus first-rate implementation? As a result, they came to the same answer-the latter is far more important than the former.
In the fierce market competition, the executive power of enterprises will determine the rise and fall of enterprises, which is the inevitable way for enterprises to achieve their plans and goals. The strong execution of an enterprise is itself the core competitiveness of an enterprise.
Alibaba is an executive team, not an ideological team. Its success depends on effective implementation. Ma Yun said: "Alibaba is not planned, but' now, right away, right away'."
Before Alibaba was founded, China's foreign trade channels mainly depended on Canton Fair, foreign exhibitions or existing foreign trade relations, and were also largely controlled by Hong Kong's trade transit. At that time, China's accession to the WTO was imminent, and many small and medium-sized enterprises urgently needed independent foreign trade channels.
Knowing this situation, Ma Yun founded Alibaba in MOFTEC 1999, and his business model was also explored by Ma Yun in MOFTEC. After separating from the China International Electronic Commerce Center of the Ministry of Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation, Ma Yun turned to another project of the Ministry of Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation: online China commodity trading market. At that time, Ma Yun quickly made the net profit of this project 2.87 million yuan. It can be said that Ma Yun has proved the existence of this market and the firmness and health of this business model through practice.
Ma Yun believes that Alibaba can and should shoulder this mission with the help of the Internet.
The general direction of e-commerce has been decided, but the specific operation mode needs careful consideration. In the choice of specific implementation methods, Ma Yun insists on using a model similar to the current BBS.
However, as soon as Ma Yun's plan was put forward, it was immediately opposed by team members. Everyone thinks this simple and ugly design scheme is too non-mainstream. The intensity of the opposition was beyond Ma Yun's expectation, and the gang slapped the table and quarreled with him.
At that time, Ma Yun asked technicians to detect and classify every post on BBS. Technicians believe that doing so will violate the spirit of the Internet. But Ma Yun thinks that only in this way can users use Alibaba conveniently and quickly, so he sticks to his guns. He believes that as long as supply and demand information can be released, it can be classified by industry, and there is no need to be so fancy. They quarreled fiercely, but Ma Yun still didn't change his mind. Finally, under Ma Yun's tough insistence, this matter was temporarily decided by Ma Yun's plan.
1In February, 1999, Ma Yun attended the Asian Electronic Commerce Conference held in Singapore. Some unexpected discoveries at this meeting made Ma Yun realize that his opportunity had come, and he decided to start his own website.
So, Ma Yun sent an email to his partner in Hangzhou, asking the technicians to finish the design of BBS immediately. Unexpectedly, his friend disagreed this time. Ma Yun was angry, and he ordered them loudly: "You should do it right away, now, right away! Now! Now! Right away! "
Because of Ma Yun's insistence, the team members finally accepted this plan.
It is precisely because of Alibaba's efficient execution that it can go step by step and achieve great success today. Ma Yun emphasized more than once: "Sometimes it is better to implement a wrong decision than to be indecisive or have no decision. Because you can have more time and opportunities to find and correct mistakes in the implementation process. "
It can be seen that good execution can make up for the deficiency of decision-making scheme, and even the perfect decision-making scheme will be meaningless if it cannot be implemented in time. It can be said that execution is the key to the success or failure of an enterprise. If entrepreneurs can standardize, control and integrate the factors that affect the results, such as execution, then enterprises can improve their competitiveness.
3, the pursuit of speed and patience
When Ma Yun started with 500,000 yuan in 1999, China Internet pioneer Yinghaiwei had been established for three years. Yinghaiwei adopts the charging mode of AOL in America. Ma Yun, on the other hand, adopts a free strategy, which is free for both buyers and sellers, so as to establish Alibaba's user base. 1999, the Internet set off the first wave in China. In this year, the number of Internet users in China reached 5 million, while in 1995, there were only 3,000 people. However, in this frenzy, Ma Yun is sober, and he thinks:
Internet is a 3000-meter long-distance race that will affect human life in the next 30 years. You must run faster than the rabbit, but be more patient than the tortoise. Before 100 meters, no one is an opponent. You run and run, and you have to run for 400 or 500 meters to distance yourself.
Similarly, on 1999, Netease went northward in a big way, but Ma Yun made the decision to put the company's China headquarters back in Hangzhou. Because at that time, most Internet companies in China, the United States and Europe had an impetuous mentality. Ma Yun believes that the main gathering place of e-commerce should not be close to the information center, but should be close to the enterprise center. It is also thanks to Ma Yun's foresight that his decision has enabled Alibaba to develop steadily.
In 2000, the Internet was in full swing, but what was their mode of making money? What is the return to investors? This is a problem that netizens and investors are very concerned about. Ma Yun said:
There are one, two, three or four ways to make money. The model you can see clearly is not necessarily the best model, but the model you can't see how to make money may be good. Investors all over the world don't know how Microsoft makes money until now, but it is the most profitable enterprise, so it may not be right to consider the network economy with traditional ideas. In addition, in the case of China, it is time to develop the Internet. At low tide, when everyone is not optimistic, it is time to practice internal skills.
In 2002, when the Internet economy was at its lowest ebb, IT Times Weekly wrote: In the past two years, Internet enterprises in Beijing were like elevators descending from heaven to hell. Almost no internet hero can escape the collective madness, and no one can escape the disaster after madness. Relying on Alibaba in Hangzhou, it has now become the best B2B e-commerce enterprise in China.
When other internet companies developed rapidly in their heyday, Alibaba was ridiculed as slow as a snail, but once they all stagnated, they were surprised to see Alibaba's speed. Ma Yun suggested that entrepreneurs should be good at "controlling".
There are no secrets in shopping malls today. Secrets are not your core competitiveness. When it is cold in winter, our slogan is: "Persistence is victory". As long as you live, there is hope if you don't die. Never be luckier than others. I never thought I was luckier than others. I may be more persistent than them. In the most difficult time, they couldn't hold on. I can hold on for a second or two.
The biggest failure is to give up, the biggest enemy is yourself, and the biggest opponent is time. Today is cruel, tomorrow is even more cruel, and the day after tomorrow is beautiful, but most of them will die tomorrow night. So don't give up today.
