1
Young people.
2
But the great thing is that young people,
3
if they are happy for the future,
4
if they are optimistic for the future,
5
and that means they are optimistic for their country.
6
So today I come here to share some of my ideas how to do business.
7
Like most people here, I was not born in a rich family.
8
I don't have a rich father.
9
I don't have a powerful uncle.
10
And I don't have anything.
11
I failed many many times in school in finding jobs
12
but I think this is all the great experience I have
13
because I feel I learned things from the mistakes I learned things from my failure so even today today,
14
Alibaba is very big, but we still believe there are a lot of mistakes,
15
a lot of failures ahead of us.
16
When we meet this kind of failures,
17
mistakes, I never worry, because I know life is full of mistakes,
18
life is full of failures.
19
But if there's no people to help you,
20
don't worry because no people help you this is a very natural people help you with this unnatural
21
because there's no reason why people should help you I think
22
if you want to open a right business a good business
23
you should pick up a right time with the right people
24
right time I think today the whole world for doing business
25
is a right time we are at the time of the third technology revolution
26
every text technology revolution takes about 50 years oh internet has
27
just a past 20 years the next 30 years those people
28
who make full use of the internet in their business in their life those people will be successful.
29
I feel that next to 30 years,
30
the artificial intelligence, next to 30 years,
31
many things will change, especially in the business community.
32
This century, the business is going to focus on 80% of the small business.
33
This century, because of new technology,
34
we have to rely a lot of the young people.
35
So I think those countries,
36
if they have a lot of young people,
37
if they rely on young people,
38
if they really give the trust on the young people,
39
those other countries has the great hope.
40
If you want to build up a good business,
41
you have to have a good team.
42
And the good team is the most important.
43
And find the right people,
44
not find the best people.
45
There is no best people outside your company.
46
All the best people are the people you hire them,
47
you work with them, you train,
48
you develop together with them.
49
So I think for doing business,
50
the most important thing is not money.
51
The most important thing is you have a great idea
52
and find a group of people who share the same idea with you.
53
Nobody alone, one person, you can run very fast.
54
But if you want to run for a long time,
55
you have to go together with a lot of people together.
56
So in my company, we focus a lot on the young people.
57
We focus a lot on the teamwork.
58
18 years ago, 18 founders in my apartment,
59
we had a dream that we believe Internet is going to be very powerful.
60
We believe internet is going to be the technology to help many small business.
61
We believe e-commerce will be the future of doing business online.
62
Because we believe this, so I invited many young people who believe the same idea with us.
63
So, right time, right people.
64
And the third is very important,
65
is that you always have to know that any successful business takes long time to realize.
66
There is no successful business that you will do today and succeed tomorrow.
67
There is no such opportunity.
68
There is no opportunity that you do today, you win next year.
69
No. For people like us in this room,
70
most of the 99.9% of people remember if you want to do something
71
Today you should say I will be successful in 10 years
72
in next to 10 years I will continue to do it
73
Improve it with many people it only takes 10 years ice can succeed
74
so if you want to do something
75
that you do today a succeed next year
76
or next month there's no such opportunity
77
so based on this right time right people and prepare for 10 years
78
and the next thing is we should believe in future
79
and also remember one thing that I found a lot of successful people in this world,
80
Warren Buffett, Bill Gates, Steve Jobs,
81
I met all of them.
82
I found one good quality they have that they never complain.
83
I find a lot of people around me,
84
they always complain, this is no good,
85
this is not good, this is not ready,
86
and I don't have money, I don't relationship.
87
those people will never have opportunities.
88
Where is the opportunity?
89
Opportunity only exists in the place where most people complain.
90
When other people complain, that's the opportunity.
91
Solve the problems, solve the complaints,
92
and then you have the chance.
93
We always have to learn from the mistakes the other people make.
94
Not necessarily learn from the successful stories.
95
Lot of MBA schools today,
96
they focus on learning successful stories.
97
To be successful, there are a lot of reasons,
98
but to fail, there are only a few reasons.
99
You have to learn the story why people fail.
100
Right, so this is something I want to share,
101
but very important, all the other thing is that people,
102
if you want to do something,
103
you should have an idea.
104
You should have a dream.
105
The idea is about what are the things that you can do the other people cannot do?
106
What are the things that you can do better than the others?
107
What are the things that you can do differently from the others?
108
When most people say this,
109
you should think about why not that.
110
When most people say that,
111
you should think about why not this.
112
You have to be different.
113
In the future that I want to write a book of myself is Alibaba 1001 mistakes.
114
There are a lot of mistakes.
115
All the young people, if you learn from the mistakes,
116
you will be stronger.
117
You will be realistic.
118
When you see all the mistakes,
119
when you see all the failures,
120
you still want to find the future.
121
You have the chance.
122
I'm smarter than you are.
123
I don't think I'm smart.
124
I failed three times for universities.
125
I never succeed in past good examinations.
126
But the thing we do is I never give up.
127
I failed, I tried again,
128
I failed, I tried again,
129
I failed, I tried again until we succeed.
130
So it's not.
131
So these days when I see the Vietnam young people,
132
you are happy, I'm happy.
133
I see so many people happy on the street in the evening.
134
Oh, they're dancing, you know,
135
they're kicking and all great,
136
a lot of funny games.
137
Can you continue to be happy like that?
138
Think about your future.
139
Think about some business.
140
Think about using the Vietnam,
141
because today Vietnam, I saw 54% of the people have mobile phones.
142
But have you a lot of people probably spend time on playing games online.
143
You should start play the best game online that is making money doing business.
144
But if you do not work hard,
145
if you do not learn,
146
if you do not work with follow,
147
embrace the change, you will have a problem.
148
So this is the best opportunity for you.
149
If everything is ready, why they need you?
150
Because all these things are not ready,
151
that is why you can make full use of opportunity to build it up.
152
Thank you.

What is the Shadowing Technique?
Shadowing is a science-backed language learning technique originally developed for professional interpreter training and popularized by polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. The method is simple but powerful: you listen to native English audio and immediately repeat it out loud — like a shadow following the speaker with just a 1–2 second delay. Unlike passive listening or grammar drills, shadowing forces your brain and mouth muscles to simultaneously process and reproduce real speech patterns. Research shows it significantly improves pronunciation accuracy, intonation, rhythm, connected speech, listening comprehension, and speaking fluency — making it one of the most effective methods for IELTS Speaking preparation and real-world English communication.
