I was sitting there listening and I forgot I'm going to speak.

I'm getting so excited when we talk about innovation.

It's something that in the past 20 years, people say, Jack, what are you doing?

I call myself innovation.

But most people say you're crazy.

You're doing something that never exists.

And I'm very, very honored to be invited here today.

I think I want to say great congratulations for this great

innovation center the opening I met Simon Paris I think 10

years ago in Davos I listened to his speech his determination

for innovation leadership courage inspired me I would say many of the things

that Alibaba doing that needs courage needs determination needs leaderships

so I think he is with us all the time

and I think this innovation center is also a gift for

the 70th anniversary of Israel four months ago I came to

Israel this is my first trip to Israel I came with

737 Alibaba senior executives why we came here we got a lot of invitations

but the reason we came here because we had a huge debate among ourselves

because of the competition because of the pressure because of all these things

that around us the anxiety and I say let's go to Israel

when you are there you know what competition means

when you're there you know when the people surrounded you how you can survive

and after after four days visited the government companies venture capitalists

and a lot of entrepreneurs we learned two things first is innovation second is who's the courage to challenge

and we find in Israel innovation is everywhere

and just like people it's just like a water it's just like a food it's so natural

and I think to not discuss about innovation is the innovation

in Israel people here all talk about this in the past 70 years for my experience for what we learned

that Israel people proved one thing even you have nothing you haven't anything

or you don't have anything but if you have brain if your heart you can make everything possible

for my understanding brain is the place where you hold the

knowledge education training the heart is the place where you hold the wisdom and IQ is the brain

and EQ is the heart.

If you have a strong EQ, you may be easy to be successful, but people like you, you have a value, you have a friendship, you have trust.

But if you have great IQ, it's very difficult for you to fail quickly.

A lot of people easy to get success, but losing very quickly.

That because they don't have enough IQ.

When IQ and EQ connected, that means when brain and heart connected, that is the knowledge and wisdom connected that is called innovation.

And I believe that if you want to be successful, you should have the good EQ.

If you don't want to fail quickly, you should have IQ.

But if you want to be respected, you should have LQ, the Q of love.

And Israel has all these things.

Israel has the best education systems.

I had a wonderful discussion with the minister of education.

I learned a lot, and I think this is the treasure.

Israel is the country.

They know the most precious resource in the world is not oil, it's not gas, it's the human brains.

You make the human brains great.

And Israel also have the great life experience that very few countries in this world have.

You combine these things together.

And that is the secret sauce of magic of Israel's success.

I'm very happy to hear that today the innovation is for better life

and this is Israel innovate not only for himself not only for Israel Israel innovate for humans for the world

and this is the exact LQ we need today I come

here to discuss my innovation where the idea comes from

and people say Jack after 19 years and you know being an Alibaba founder and CEO.

What you've got?

People say you got rich.

I think the wealth I've got is that I've known and seen, met

so many great people in the world i remember one story

after second world war a grandson asked grandfather grandfather you joined the war so are you a hero in the world

the grandfather said no i'm not the hero

but i have the honor to work with

and fight together with all the heroes i'm lucky enough in

the past the 19 years i have the honor to meet

so many great leaders and make

so many great entrepreneurs innovators i think from them i have the honor this is my wealth

and i want to share with you most of innovations not

because they want to because they will foster to israel there's no water no oil no resources

and most people innovate for success

and I found Israel people innovate for survive you don't have diamond

but you have the biggest diamond exchange in the world

and you don't have you don't make cars

but you have the best car technology in the world you'd have water

and I heard I was first time four months I heard

that you are one of the biggest export of vegetables or fruits to the Europe and you'd have water

that's amazing and the other thing is

that Alibaba you know people say Jack you are amazing how

could you make such a huge investment in nine years ago to develop develop cloud computing

and you know nothing but technology that is true I know nothing

but technology I'm scared of technology

so I was the first to take the product tester of my company

because I said if I can use it 80% of people can use it

if I cannot use it 80% don't want to use it

so nine years ago I know

if we do not develop technology on clock computing Alibaba will bankrupt because we cannot afford the cost of IBM and Oracle.

The cost of using this IT is so too expensive for us, so we have to innovate,

we have to design a technology that is simple enough.

If we can use that technology simple and cost effective, not only for Alibaba, it's also going to support millions of small business.

That was, we were forced.

And the other thing is that, you know, we have 11 11 november 11 is the largest shopping day

of china last year for the first minute minute of november

11 we had 18 million people came in for the one sec first the second with

that good technology our company will bankrupt immediately we sold more

than 24 billion dollars last year for one day this year

we don't know how much we will sell for one night it's the technology behind it

so we were forced to do that

and today a lot of people say oh young people have no opportunities i think

that that thing i've heard for 40 years

100

when i was young i oh i hate bill gates

101

because i think microsoft take all the opportunity ibm oracle they take all the opportunity

102

but later i found when people start to complain

103

that is the opportunity most people keep on complaining

104

if you can solve the complaining if you've solved the problems

105

and that is the opportunity innovation is the way to solve anxiety worries

106

and to suspect innovation is for happier life

107

so we believe through the innovation you can grasp the opportunity of the grasp the opportunity for success.

108

The first technology revolution released the physical power of human beings.

109

The second technology revolution released the distance.

110

And this is the third technology revolution, released the human brains.

111

Human beings, like the Prime Minister said last night, we never satisfied with today

112

and the way to make yourself to change to change yourself to embrace this challenge is called innovation

113

and I would like to say who are those kind of

114

innovation innovated the people who are these kind of people I

115

would say those innovators they look like crazy stupid lazy

116

and even lies

117

when we started Alibaba I tell the story about I went

118

to Silicon Valley raising fund I talked to over 30 venture capitalists they say crazy Alibaba stupid crazy name

119

and e-commerce in China won't work

120

because China has no internet China had a censorship no credit card no deliver nothing else

121

so they think it's impossible to make they think Jack you're coming here to tell to tell a lie.

122

But we believe China has the future we believe internet is going to change the China

123

and at that time e-commerce in America style is only supported big companies we believe small business

124

and people say small business they don't make money how could you make money from them they're right we say

125

if small business in America e-commerce for big companies helping big

126

company to cut the cost we think helping small companies not to teach them how to cut the cost

127

because they know better than you do you should help them how to make the money

128

and washing machine a lot of lot of things are designed

129

for lazy people people don't want to wash them washing machine

130

people don't want to climb they have the elevators even the

131

iPhone came a lot of experts of telephone set how could this stupid thing there is no even press buttons

132

when Bell start sell his telephones a new famous newspaper in America's tell the policeman please arrest

133

that guy because he's cheating the people

134

so innovation innovated the people are believers most people seeing is believing people like us we believe

135

and we see it innovation innovators they are not one person they a group of people

136

so when you invest in money in somebody you should see do this guy does this guy have followers

137

if you have a group of people who are crazy like him

138

that would be great i remember early 2000 i went to united states to talk about

139

and make my speech about internet in the future in china

140

i believe internet population in china will be bigger than the usa people say ah

141

that is not true my reason was very simple china have

142

1.4 billion people usa have only 300 million people make everybody online you know 300 million right

143

so china has a huge potential for that

144

but one of the guys said jack what you're talking about internet companies are the values

145

and mission that is crazy and i say sir please come to my company

146

so i came to hanzo my company spent one week

147

and the day he left he said Jack I know you're crazy

148

but I found 100 people your companies they're all crazy crazy

149

people don't think they're crazy they think people outside they're crazy

150

so and most of the innovators are not very successful people

151

because successful people very difficult to change I never tried to

152

convince successful people they will tell you how they succeed they will continue to do this.

153

Those people who don't succeed, they always want the success.

154

So one of the reasons why Alibaba succeed 20 years ago, we never tried to convince those people who are successful.

155

We try to spend time on the people who are 18 years old, 20 years old, they are not successful.

156

So 20 years later, they become successful, we become successful.

157

That is how we did it.

158

Now most of the people who buy online there for 35 to 40.

159

20 years ago they only spent two dollars now they spend three thousand dollars that is the difference.

160

Innovation has nothing to do with the technology.

161

Technology is just a way to do it.

162

When we talk about innovation everybody say ah hi technology it's not about that.

163

Innovation everybody can do it right.

164

Those people who do not know anything like technology like me

165

we can find those people rely on these people try those

166

people who have the technology in our site alibaba site there's a one guy selling shoes 48 inches only

167

and i said how can this guy sell shoes for 48 inches

168

and we find out he's very innovative because people with 48

169

inches feet difficult for him to buy shoes in the shops there's only one on the online

170

and there are a lot of innovative ways those guys design

171

lazy guys you know they watch tv lying on the sofa

172

so they designed a specific glass that you can lie on the on the sofa watch the

173

on tv they sell perfectly

174

and there are also some guys helping people to write letters to say goodbye to boyfriends and girlfriends

175

and write the resign letters to bosses there are a lot of crazy interesting ideas they are all wonderful sellers

176

and most of the innovations today are only talk

177

innovation they think it's an idea entrepreneurs make the innovation reality

178

so we have to share a real entrepreneur have to believe

179

in the future have to suffer have to be ready for the terrible our lives in the future.

180

So we think, I believe everybody has the ability of innovation, but you just don't spend the time to discover that.

181

And lastly, very important is the government.

182

Now, we are entering into a new world.

183

This world is going to be very complex, very disrupted, and every technology revolution caused world problems.

184

The first technology revolution caused World War I.

185

The second technology revolution caused World War II.

186

Now we are into the third technology revolution.

187

We should not have a third world war.

188

But if there is a third world war, it should be the war against poverty, disease and environment.

189

These are the things that human beings should fight together and work together.

190

A government should lead, not to govern.

191

The government should empower and protect the innovation, not control the innovation.

192

And I think the best investment for tomorrow is education.

193

In the past 20 years, we make people like machines.

194

Next 20 years, we will make machines like people.

195

You like it or don't like it?

196

We have to change ourselves.

197

This thing is coming.

198

how what we should do to change our education systems, to teach our kids they can do the things the machine cannot do.

199

This is the thing.

200

It's concerned to every family and every government should pay attention to that.

201

And I think government should also encourage entrepreneurships.

202

I really appreciate Prime Minister yesterday to talk about entrepreneurs.

203

It's the entrepreneurships that make ideas reality.

204

Innovation is always going to destroy of yesterday.

205

A lot of people who successfully yesterday would not like it.

206

So government should know what not to do.

207

Let me tell you one story.

208

In the 1860s, when UK had first cars, the cars came in, automobile coming,

209

they destroyed a lot of jobs of these horsemen.

210

Horsemen at that time are the main jobs of the society.

211

These are white-collar people.

212

They went to the government, pushed the government, say you should stop these cars because they're going to kill people on the road, it's going to destroy the jobs.

213

So the government passed a law called red flag bill.

214

They do not allow any car drive faster than seven miles per hour.

215

And they should always follow behind the causes.

216

That's stopping.

217

Protect the people for some people's interest, but destroy the whole industry.

218

And the other thing, innovation is interesting, and it's also gonna stop by a lot of people.

219

People don't like it.

220

I went to the Museum of Basketball.

221

You know, basketball used to have a basket.

222

People threw the ball inside, and with a ladder to take the ball out.

223

This thing has been lasted for 18 years.

224

And there's one guy said, why not cut the bottom?

225

And it could be easier.

226

It's a great idea, much more basketball become more competitive, but people hate it.

227

It's the people who hate it the most or the guy who wins the letter.

228

He said, I'm losing my job.

229

So this is what I want to say.

230

People start to worry.

231

Artificial intelligence, robots, jobs.

232

But don't worry about it.

233

Human beings are much smarter than machines machines machine can never control

234

because machine only have chips human beings have the hearts I remember 1995

235

when I studied Ali

236

or studied internet in China there is a big meeting there's

237

a small meeting amount 24 people in Beijing in the evening

238

for discussing for three hours there are a lot of experts

239

start to discuss about the Internet they think internet is going to destroy this destroy

240

that a lot of worries they think government should control it.

241

Almost 22 years passed.

242

Those things we worried never come up.

243

Those things we did not worry all came up.

244

And I want to say don't worry about the future.

245

Young people don't worry of the future.

246

And don't worry about the the size of the machine.

247

I think small business don't worry about because small business believe small is powerful, small is beautiful.

248

Using innovation, small business can compete anybody in the world

249

and this is just like Israel the small is beautiful and small is powerful so my ability is

250

that rely on the young people rely on the small business

251

believe the future be optimistic the world is beautiful today is just a beginning

252

but anything remember this is my philosophy of life the past 20 years Today is difficult.

253

Tomorrow is much more difficult.

254

The day of tomorrow is beautiful.

255

Most people die tomorrow evening.

256

Thank you very much.

Wat is de Shadowing-techniek?

Shadowing is een wetenschappelijk onderbouwde taalleermethode die oorspronkelijk is ontwikkeld voor professionele tolkentraining en gepopulariseerd door polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. De methode is eenvoudig maar krachtig: je luistert naar native Engelse audio en herhaalt het onmiddellijk hardop — als een schaduw die de spreker volgt met slechts 1–2 seconden vertraging. In tegenstelling tot passief luisteren of grammaticadrills, dwingt shadowing je hersenen en mondspieren om echte spraakpatronen tegelijkertijd te verwerken en te reproduceren. Onderzoek toont aan dat het de uitspraaknauwkeurigheid, intonatie, ritme, verbonden spraak, luisterbegrip en spreekvaardigheid aanzienlijk verbetert — waardoor het een van de meest effectieve methoden is voor IELTS Speaking-voorbereiding en echte Engelse communicatie.
