Jack Ma's three college entrance exams

Ma Yun, an angular, thin strange face, a school of the wild unruly, maverick style of doing things, a pair of ribs, no return of the ancient road hot intestine; The conference room of the company was named after "Guangming Ding", and it was closely associated with Jin Yong and gathered Internet heroes "The West Lake Discussion of Swords". Ma Yun's words and deeds are quite like a hero across the business sea and lake.

Jack Ma let today's countless grassroots entrepreneurs worship, a big reason is that Jack Ma has been like us, is an ordinary person who can not be more ordinary. He failed repeatedly in the college entrance examination. Just think, if Ma Yun failed the second college entrance examination, listen to the advice of his parents, learned a trade, and live his life as a temporary worker safely, so, there will be today's Ma Yun, there will be today's Alibaba?

The first college entrance examination met Waterloo. Although Ma was surprisingly good at English among his peers, he was so bad at math that he scored only 1 point, losing all around. After that, he worked as a secretary, and a porter, and then helped people deliver books on a tricycle. Once, while delivering books to a cultural unit, he picked up a novel called Life. That is the representative work of the famous writer Lu Yao. The novel's protagonist, rural intellectual youth Gao Jialin twists and turns life road to Ma brought a lot of feelings. Gao Jialin is a very talented young man, he has a persistent pursuit of the ideal, but in the process of his pursuit of the ideal, often every step forward, there will be a kind of resistance horizontal in front of him, so that he can not really display the opportunity of talent, and even have to face the situation of falling to the origin again.

From the story, Ma deeply understood that although the road of life is very long, the key is often only a few steps. On the road of life, no one's road is straight, there is no fork in the road, which is to confirm the saying: "life is not happy nine times out of ten." Since the road of life is so tortuous and complex, people should be calm to face it. So Ma made up his mind to take part in the second college entrance examination. That summer, Ma signed up for the college entrance examination repeat class, every day on a bicycle, two, one line, between home and cram school.

Unexpectedly the second time the college entrance examination still failed. This time, Ma Yun's math test was 19 points, the total separation of the score of 140 points, and the results Ma Yun had little hope of going to college parents thought he did not have to take the test.

At that time, the TV series "Girl Volleyball" swept the country and became a household name. Junko's smile inspired an entire generation, including Jack Ma at the time, in an austere but innocent age. Not only because of her sweet smile but also because of her never-say-die spirit. This spirit has a profound influence on Jack Ma in the future. "Never give up" has also become a spiritual symbol of Jack Ma, which has influenced every Alien. Deer Junzi's fighting spirit gave Ma a huge incentive, regardless of his family strongly opposed, resolutely began the third college entrance exam review preparation. Unable to convince his family, Ma worked during the day and attended night school at night. On Sunday, to motivate myself to study well, I got up early and went to the library of Zhejiang University for an hour.

Just three days before the third college entrance examination, Jack Ma has been disappointed in their math scores Yu's teacher said a word to Jack Ma: "Jack Ma, your math is in a mess, if you can pass the exam, my word 'Yu' is written backward."

On the morning of the math test, Ma had been memorizing 10 basic math formulas. During the exam, Ma Yun used the 10 formulas one by one. From the examination room, and the students to the answer, Ma Yun knew that he must have passed. The result, of that math exam, Ma Yun test 79 points. After countless hardships, Ma was finally admitted to the university.
