1
scared of in the next 30 years?
2
Yeah, we people are very lucky because we are in the area
3
that the world is in a very big transformation because of the technology.
4
I think we read a lot on the books
5
that 200 years ago when the first industry had a lot of great people, and then 100 years ago,
6
electricity revolution come, a lot of success people.
7
So now the technology comes.
8
This new technology will also create a lot of successful people, interesting careers.
9
But honestly, every technology revolution comes, is going to create a lot of social problems.
10
And my view is the first technology revolution caused the First World War.
11
Second technology revolution caused the Second World War.
12
Now we're on the third.
13
So what is going to happen?
14
People worry about artificial intelligence.
15
People worry about robots.
16
People worry about computers and data and privacy and securities.
17
People start to worry.
18
But whether you worry, it will come.
19
You don't worry, it comes.
20
So the thing is how you change yourself.
21
So I think next 30 years, the world is going to be a huge change.
22
If there is a third world war, I think the world war should be a war against the disease, a war against environment pollution,
23
a war against poverty together.
24
We should not war against ourselves.
25
But if we do not see clearly that using the new technology to solve this problem, if we do not unite,
26
align together, human beings are going to fight each other.
27
Because every technology revolution will make the world unbalanced.
28
When something unbalanced coming, somebody used to be number one suddenly become number two, and somebody was number three and then become number one, it's all comfortable.
29
So we people, if you're 30 years old, my view is that when you're 20 to 30 years old,
30
you should follow a good boss, join a good company to learn how to do things properly.
31
When you're 30 to 40 years old, if you want to do something yourself, just do it.
32
You still can't afford to lose, to fail.
33
But when you're 40 to 50 years old,
34
my suggestion is that you should do things that you are good at, right?
35
And not do things that, oh, that's very interesting, I want to try something new.
36
It's a bit dangerous more.
37
When you're 50 to 60 years old, spending time training and developing young people, the next generation.
38
When you're over 60 years old, better stay with your grandchildren.
39
But this is normally general like that.
40
Not everybody like that, but most of the people are like that.
41
So 30 years old, we people, next 30 years, are the luckiest period.
42
We have a lot of challenges, a lot of things that are happening, and with our knowledge, our physical power, it's time you need to change.
43
You have to think we all, if you want to be successful tomorrow, it's impossible.
44
If you want to be successful a year later, it's impossible.
45
But if you want to win ten years later, you have chance.
46
That is what I think.
47
Wonderful.
48
And moving on to a topic which is kind of impossible to ignore after 2017.
49
So a third of all the people in leadership positions in Alibaba are women.
50
But the picture elsewhere is a bit more bleak.
51
And a friend of mine recently said something that has really stayed with me.
52
Women are tired of empowerment programs and we want power.
53
In 2016, venture capitalists invested $58.2 billion in male-founded companies, while women received just $1.46 billion.
54
And as 2017 showed, it was a year of sexual harassment scandals, the gender pay gap still exists and unfortunately the list does go on.
55
So how do you think we can move beyond tokenistic gestures towards genuine gender equality?
56
Yeah, that is very interesting.
57
A few years, like four years ago, there is a journalist came to our company and
58
when he leaves here asking me question why there are
59
so many women in your company and I never realized we have
60
so many women in our company I said anything wrong today
61
we have a 49% close 49% of the employees of our
62
company are women that's a lot for a high-tech company it's
63
not on purpose we hire women we think they are great in in helping us to grow.
64
Alibaba is an e-commerce company.
65
E-commerce is a service industry.
66
To serve people better, you should have a service heart.
67
We find that women doing much better jobs than men.
68
And the second is the last century, people compete with muscle.
69
This century is not muscle, it's the wisdom.
70
And next is, I believe if a person wants to be successful, you should have a high EQ.
71
But if you don't want to lose quickly, you should have a high IQ.
72
But if you want to be respected, you should have high LQ, the Q of love.
73
So those three Qs put together, a lot of men, they have a high IQ,
74
but low EQ, a very tiny LQ.
75
Women balance-wise, they're the best.
76
If you want your company to be successful, if you want your company to operate with wisdom,
77
with care, women are the best.
78
In my company, we noticed that women, they care others much more than men.
79
Even on our site, today on shopping site, e-commerce, we find women buy a lot of things.
80
but they buy for their husband, their parents, their kids.
81
Men only buy for themselves mostly.
82
Because you care, that makes you the difference.
83
So we have 49% of the colleagues in the company are women and close to 37% of the senior management are women.
84
We never feel anything wrong and women, they sacrifice more.
85
When they love it, they believe it, they continue to do it.
86
So I think one of the secretive sources for Alibaba to be successful was success in the past 18 years
87
because we have so many women colleagues.
88
And the other thing is that we feel so proud.
89
And most of the time, you see, I go out.
90
I never realized that when we count always 50% of women, with my delegation, my team, because we never think they're women,
91
we think they're great colleagues.
92
So if you try to say, now we got too many men, so we have to put some women inside, ugh, that's a disaster for both sides.
93
So what would your advice be to companies
94
that operate a little bit more on that quota-based system
95
but seem to be not making progress or not having such kind of representation?
96
When you have a quarter base to have, you must have a lot of women.
97
You will never reach that.
98
I think if a company flow for men, trust me, this company cannot be sustainable, cannot keep on growing because just like a steel,
99
if you don't put wood inside, this steel is too tough.
100
It's easy to break.
101
So when you have a woman and a man in the same company, when something happened, the women are the,
102
for example, one of the value for our company is that the number one value is custom number one, in price number two, shareholder number three.
103
This is everywhere I go.
104
Wall Street did not like my point, but this is what I said, you know.
105
If you like us, invest in us.
106
If you don't like us, please sell our stocks.
107
Don't buy us.
108
We believe Custom number one, employee number two, share number three.
109
But when we start to compete, men suddenly get very angry.
110
And you know, they start.
111
And women always come and say, no competition.
112
Let's think about custom number one.
113
Most of the women, they believe in the first day dream or first day love.
114
Most of the men, easy to forget.
115
I'm sorry I say bad about men.
116
This is statistic.
117
This is statistic.
118
This is why our company works the balance.
119
And it's naturally happening.
120
It's not like we, so a lot of people have a tendency,
121
man is better in doing things.
122
But we think that even if man is better, we still have to hide the woman inside.
123
And then the women have enough women, women will hide people more.
124
So this is how we did it.
125
So I don't know how many high tech companies in the world like us, 49% colleagues are women.
126
We feel proud of that.
127
As you should be, and I think it's a very strong message to send out to, like I say, other companies that have a range of reasons for why that's not the case.
128
Because clearly you've been able to build the most successful one with that being so.
129
So you just came off stage after giving a talk about digital e-commerce
130
and what needs to happen for small businesses and entrepreneurs to benefit from globalization.
131
At a time when globalization, once again, is being questioned, is it really delivering for the most vulnerable?
132
Is it delivering for people in the global south, et cetera?
133
So what is your message to people in this room, kind of about globalization, really?
134
I think globalization cannot be stopped.
135
Nobody can stop globalization.
136
Nobody can stop trade.
137
And I believe if trade stops, war starts.
138
Trade is the way to dissolve the war, not to cause the wars.
139
I think globalization did a fantastic job in the past 30 years, enrich a lot of countries.
140
But of course, caused a lot of problems.
141
Young people do not have opportunities.
142
Small business have not opportunities.
143
Developing countries were neglected.
144
But it's only 30 years.
145
It's a baby.
146
It's a growth.
147
You have to improve it.
148
If you do not improve it, then you kill it.
149
It's easy.
150
Most of the time, to kill something is much easier.
151
So my belief is it's our generation's job.
152
Today, we have a better technology.
153
We have a better knowledge about globalization.
154
And it's our generation's responsibility or opportunity to improve it.
155
Tell me, how can you stop globalization?
156
Now artificial intelligence come.
157
Robots come.
158
My grandfather worked 16 hours a day.
159
And he said he was very busy.
160
We work eight hours a day.
161
We said, we are very busy.
162
Our children may only work three hours or four hours a day, for three days a week.
163
I bet they will say, oh, we're very busy.
164
Then when you work only three hours a day and four days a week, what are you going to do?
165
You're going to travel around.
166
Right?
167
You cannot stay in the home for a week.
168
You will travel.
169
30 years ago, normal life, you visit 20 to 30 cities all your life.
170
30 years later, in your life, you will visit 300 cities in your life.
171
Because of mobile.
172
How can you stop it?
173
It's impossible.
174
So thinking about that, the only thing is to improve it, to make it simpler.
175
Global trade should be simple, should be modernized.
176
should have given inclusive, everybody have the opportunity.
177
So my strong message is that, well, I feel sorry for WTO.
178
They did a great job in the past 20 years.
179
When you put 200 government ministers in one room, how can they agree on something?
180
Because I don't like your country.
181
No matter how good suggestion you have, I say no. But business people, even if we put 200 business people in one room,
182
we will surely agree on something.
183
And this is what I believe.
184
The next generation of globalization should be inclusive, should create opportunities for young people to get involved.
185
The first globalization in human history was controlled by few kings and emperors.
186
Last 30 years, globalization was controlled by 60,000 big companies.
187
If you're not among the big companies, if you're not in the big powerful countries, you don't have chance.
188
The next 30 years, I bet we will have 6 million or 16 million or 16 million companies get involved in globalization.
189
And I'm sure we will make it happen together with a lot of people, maybe with you.
190
With a mobile phone, if people still use a mobile phone 30 years later.
191
With a mobile phone, you can global buy.
192
You want to buy something from Kenya, you just click.
193
You want to buy something from Norway, you click.
194
Global buy, global sell.
195
If you're a small thing, without internet, you can only sell in your village
196
or small today you can sell across the world
197
and global pay global delivery
198
and global travel the only thing you have to bring is
199
a mobile phone no not even passport this is going to happen in ten years
200
and this is the message let's catch this opportunity
201
if you complain the other people catch it if you catch the opportunity to embrace it now,
202
you will be the next Alibaba.
203
People like me, I was born in a very poor family.
204
I never got a great education.
205
I failed all the examinations.
206
For what reason, I don't know.
207
But later, I realized I don't have money.
208
I don't have technology.
209
I don't have a lot of good backgrounds.
210
We have a rich uncle or something, no. The only thing I competed with my people, the young people, let's compete for 10 years later.
211
This is what I believe 10 years later will be happening.
212
So everything I do for
213
that goal I know 10 years later this thing is going to happen
214
so prepare for that because I know if I compete with him for next month no chance.
215
So this is how my message is up it's a challenge but it's opportunity and it's the opportunity for people like us.
216
This world the most difficult thing is to convincing a successful people.
217
Ah, we tell him this is a great opportunities
218
and no no no no no no forget it right I've been doing this for 30 years
219
but for people like us we're looking for opportunities in order to survive
220
so we will do anything to be creative
221
so this is the message 30 years it's opportunity for us
222
it's a challenge for those people who are 60 years old old.
223
If they're 60 years old, not discrimination, but it is tough for them.
224
And maybe says something about how we need to look at government as well, in terms of more young people entering and doing policy making.
225
So if there are these six or 16 or 60 million businesses, and we're all kind of hyper connected, on a more fundamental level, do you think consumption is making us happy?
226
Consumption?
227
consumption by making us happy.
228
Through consuming, are we becoming happier, through being more connected, is that genuinely driving...
229
Yeah, of course, consumption will make...
230
Without consumption, definitely we're not happy, right?
231
But if there's consumption, may not be...
232
The thing is that for me, people like me, people say, Jack, you're very rich, but I don't have time to spend money.
233
And I know this money does not belong to me.
234
When I have a 1 million, 2 million, it's my money.
235
But when you have 20 million, problem comes, you think the US dollars is devalued or Ingrid Pond and the stock market is going to problem.
236
When you're over 1 billion dollars, that is the responsibility because the society trusted you,
237
Kim, manage the money better.
238
If you think that is your money, you'll get into trouble.
239
This is what I always believe.
240
That's the, how can a person have, you know, 20 or $2 billion?
241
No matter how hard you work, you should not get $2 billion or $20 billion.
242
The money people put on you is the trust and credit you have.
243
So you should spend money better than government.
244
You should spend money better than the other people.
245
Spend money on the right places.
246
So, consumptions, yes.
247
And I guess service industry.
248
Let me tell you one thing.
249
The AI robots is going to kill a lot of jobs.
250
Because in the future, machine.
251
But there will be, we have to create more than service industry.
252
Service industry is going to help.
253
Service has got a lot about consumptions.
254
So doing the consumptions, service industry has huge hope.
255
But you have to do it uniquely.
256
I think from that slightly philosophical point, we can turn to the floor for questions.
257
So if you could please introduce yourself, say where you're from, please keep your questions succinct
258
so we can take as many as possible and relevant for the whole group.
259
Great.
260
So would you like to go first?
261
Hi, my name is Parv.
262
I'm a global shaper from Chicago.
263
And you just talked about philanthropy.
264
And I'm curious if you could talk about how you see your role as changing in the giving space, particularly given the fractured world we live in.
265
Yeah, I think philanthropy is not about helping others.
266
It's about helping yourself.
267
I had a huge debate with my colleagues several years ago.
268
There was a big earthquake in China.
269
And there was big earthquake in Japan.
270
So we donated like a,
271
I forgot the example, like $20,000 to Japan, $10, $15 to China.
272
And people say, why we donate that little?
273
Because we have a lot of money.
274
And my point is, no matter how much money you donate, $2 million, $20 million, that money compared to that is tiny.
275
You cannot change a lot of things there.
276
The thing you donate because you change yourself.
277
When you change, the world is changing.
278
You have to change yourself.
279
And the next thing is that philanthropy is about action.
280
It's about involvement.
281
It's not about giving money.
282
It's about wake up people's consciousness.
283
So I think, to me,
284
I grow up, and my globalization is grow up in this place.
285
Year 2001, when I was nominated as a young global leader, I had no idea what is Davos,
286
where is it, and what is about a young global leader.
287
But I came here, I learned, I listened about these corporate global citizenship, and globalization, all things.
288
I grow up.
289
I understand this is, to me, it's like a philanthropy.
290
And this has changed to me as I taught Schwab that every time I come to Davos, I want to spend time with young people.
291
Because I benefit from young global leaders.
292
Early days, when I listen to Bill Gates, Bill Clinton, and George Soros, these guys.
293
At that time, we don't have that many people.
294
Very poor facilities.
295
We are very cold.
296
I work like 13 minutes driving in a bus coming here and watching.
297
But I think still, but this is good.
298
You know, this is the tuition we pay for a grown up.
299
And now, to me, I think spending time with you benefit me.
300
And also, I want to tell you my true experience.
301
It's a philanthropy.
302
Does not necessarily use money.
303
So by charity, you cannot change the world.
304
But if you have a philanthropy heart, you can do a lot of things.
305
So I find this one, unfortunately, a lot of people have a business heart here, making money.
306
But do things like philanthropy.
307
What we should do is should be a philanthropy heart, but have a business skill.
308
I hate a lot of people do the opposite.
309
They want to make money, but they talk like a philanthropy.
310
And they do like a philanthropy, waste a lot of money.
311
So this is what I mean.
312
And it's if you want your team to continue to work with you all your life,
313
you have to plant the seed of care the world, care others.
314
The first day they join, I don't like a lot of companies make a lot of money making pollutions
315
and counterfeit products by end of the year donate some money.
316
This is no good.
317
Business, the philanthropy idea should be buried into the business model.
318
That's, yeah.
319
SPEAKER 1 Philanthropy of heart, I think, the message that young people can take forward.
320
Please.
321
Hi, my name is Iman.
322
I'm a global shaper from the Jeddah Hub in Saudi Arabia.
323
My question is, as a young boy, did you envision that your life would be like this?
324
Did you have intuition about this?
325
And if so, do you think the belief helped in achieving such great success?
326
As a young boy, I never thought, you know, as a young boy, even today, I never thought I would be here.
327
Honestly, I never thought, but as a young boy, I probably, when I look back,
328
every problems I met in my, when I was a kid, benefited me.
329
I failed so many times.
330
People probably know that I've applied jobs for so many jobs, over 30 jobs, all rejected, not even got a chance.
331
24 of us were interviewed for a KFC job.
332
23 accepted.
333
I was the only guy rejected.
334
Six people went looking for a police job.
335
Five accepted.
336
I was the only one.
337
My cousin and I applied job as a servant in a four-star hotel in my city.
338
We waited a long queue for two hours.
339
He was accepted.
340
I was rejected.
341
So my mother looked at me, oh.
342
But I know this is a training course for me.
343
Before my 30 years old, I'm a failure.
344
People lose, but I never give up.
345
I think there is opportunity there.
346
And then I was a teacher later.
347
I graduated from university.
348
I was teaching in the university for six years.
349
five because number five year I was elected the best teacher of my university elected by students
350
so I said everything I taught my students are the things I learned from books what
351
if I go out spend a ten years experience all the things whether fail
352
or succeed I go back to teach again
353
that was my original thinking doing Alibaba so I never thought I could be rich I never thought it we'll be successful.
354
I never thought we could survive for 18 years.
355
And then we made it.
356
The only thing that today we should do is share the experience and know-how, especially share the mistakes that suffers with others.
357
My thinking is that, you guys remember, if you want to be successful,
358
learn from the other people's mistakes, don't learn from the successful stories.
359
Successful stories they make, don't listen to that.
360
There are a lot of reasons behind it.
361
Just like I remember the first time Harvard Business School came to us,
362
say, Jack, we want to write a case study for you.
363
Yes, year 2001, 2000.
364
They came, they spent one week, and they write a report.
365
And I read, no, no, I said, this is not me.
366
And they said, this is you.
367
I said, no, this is not us.
368
He said, this is you.
369
So they make up his sign.
370
And the case study go up, and they start to teach in a lot of universities.
371
The next five years, they invited me to go to the case study.
372
And they always find a competitor of my company.
373
And after every case study, Alibaba would die.
374
That company would succeed.
375
All the students agreed.
376
And actually, every five years, all the competitors die.
377
We still survive.
378
So how can you study this kind of a successful story?
379
Learn from the mistakes, the other people.
380
No matter how smart you are, you will encounter these mistakes.
381
You learn from mistakes not because you will be able to avoid mistakes.
382
You will be able to, when these mistakes come, this stuff comes,
383
you know how to deal with it, how to face it.
384
The book I want to write, if I want, if I can, is Alibaba 1001 Mistakes.
385
This is the most treasure-able things in my life.
386
In my life, it's not how much we achieved.
387
It's how much we go through the tough days and mistakes.
388
And this is what if you start to think now, it would be good.
389
So if you ask me when as a boy, I never felt by that.
390
Never.
391
I was lucky as a person.
392
Let's go to the back of the room.
393
Fanling, YGL from Shanghai.
394
I know that you recently spent 100 billion RMB in deep tech research.
395
I just wonder how you think of the future of deep tech and how that's going to influence humanity and creativity.
396
Thank you.
397
I think technology, as a company, we invest 100 billion RMB, which is like 150, right?
398
Or 15, no, yes, 15 billion.
399
15 billion US dollars on researching for the high tech.
400
As a company, I hope in the future we gain our profit because of our technology, not because of our size.
401
So we have to invest in technology.
402
But I don't like this kind of, there's a debate.
403
Artificial intelligence, big data is going to threat the human beings.
404
I think artificial intelligence should support human beings.
405
The technology should always do something to enable people instead of disable people.
406
When steam machine comes, when cars come, people hate it.
407
Today we think cars are good.
408
The automobile when first was designed, people hate, especially this horseman.
409
They destroy every car they can see.
410
So I would say people like us, when we have the money, we have the resources, we have the young, all the excellent young people,
411
we should spend money on the technology that enable people, empower people, make life better.
412
So this is what we want to invest.
413
And I think artificial intelligence, no matter how artificial intelligence is good, human Being in the future,
414
compete with machine on knowledge, you don't have chance.
415
Computer is always going to be smarter than you are.
416
When there's a car, forget about who runs faster.
417
When there's a plane, don't think you can fly.
418
When there's a computer, you know computer is always smarter than you are.
419
They never forget.
420
They remember everything.
421
They never get angry.
422
They calculate it faster.
423
A computer can never be as wise as a man.
424
What's the difference between smart and wisdom?
425
My view is a smart people see something the other people don't see.
426
A wise people see something he pretend he did not see it.
427
Smart people know what he want.
428
A wise people know what he doesn't want.
429
wisdom.
430
The person with wisdom knows I don't, only you know I don't want this.
431
Then you know what do you want.
432
So I think this is the money we invest to support human beings, not supporting Alibaba.
433
This lab is open to the whole world.
434
It's not supporting Alibaba at all.
435
Wonderful.
436
Hi, I'm Saad, Global Shaper from the Islamabad Hub.
437
I really want to know what you think about leadership.
438
Is it something that comes from the heart when it comes to decision making as a leader, or is it something that you have to think through your mind as well, or is it a bit of both?
439
Like as a leader when you make decisions, would you go with something that you really feel about from your heart, or would you try to have a mix of your mind and your heart when you make decisions?
440
Yeah, I think you are, it's a good question, I've been thinking about that.
441
First, it's your nature instinct, there must be have something that you're different.
442
Second is you need training.
443
You should be trained through all the tough experience, but still positive.
444
I found out some great leaders in the world, they are always positive.
445
They never complain others.
446
They never complain.
447
And they look at the things in a different view, like normal people.
448
So I think people in my company,
449
they, at the beginning, they don't like me, because I'll always think about 10 years, five years.
450
And then after we were working together for three or five years, they found, hmm, you are right.
451
Then we got the credit rating.
452
And as a CEO, one of the jobs where everybody's happy, you have to see the unhappy things.
453
When everybody's unhappy, you have to see the happy things. So leadership is nature.
454
But you have to have to train and learn.
455
And I got my leadership sub upgraded in doubles.
456
I see so many.
457
Ali Enter Financing, how many people here know about Alipay?
458
Thank you.
459
Alipay's decision was made here.
460
I was thinking about Alipay.
461
But I was not there to launch Alipay.
462
Because in China, if you do financing without license, you will be in jail at that time.
463
So I went to the banks.
464
Can you help us do the e-commerce on transaction?
465
No, no, no, no, no. No banks would accept it.
466
So if there would be no Alipin, no financing, the e-commerce would go nowhere.
467
So I was, year 2004, I was here.
468
Listen to a speech by two state leaders about leadership.
469
And this guy said, leadership is about responsibility.
470
You believe it, but the people don't believe it.
471
But if you think it's so critical, you should pay any price to do it.
472
So that day changed my mind and I called back to my team and said, let's launch it within one month.
473
If somebody has to go to the jail, I go to the jail.
474
Who would be the second one following me?
475
If I go, you continue.
476
And you go to the jail, you go continue.
477
That was the leadership determination.
478
And year 2004, I made a decision here quarterback.
479
And now today the Alipay launched and it's so big over 800 million people today using Alipay.
480
This is called, yeah.
481
Wonderful.
482
Shall we take one from YGL to be fair?
483
Any questions?
484
Yeah, please.
485
Hello, my name is Pablo from Costa Rica, YGL.
486
And given your perspective of caring
487
and being a trustee of all this what do you do for self-care
488
and also maybe within your company because early on often you can cut through sleep
489
or other things in a silly way and you realize that
490
if you plan for the long term one also has to take personal care be their mindfulness
491
or prioritizing better and how are you doing this
492
and how do you promote it in your company well I'm lucky
493
that I have 18 co-founders and most of them my students
494
when we in my apartment I told them my dream I met my vision
495
and we videotape funny thing is that
496
when Alibaba launched for the first day I said that's a videotape everything every important meetings that we join together.
497
The purpose is that someday if we fail, we give the videos to the people to research why we fail.
498
If we succeed, give the videos to the other people.
499
So we have almost a whole house of video tapes.
500
So the first video tape I say, I speak for two hours and those guys look at me, okay, so that's what you want to do?
501
I say yeah, this is what I want to do.
502
I was the first, I know nothing about technology, I know nothing about management,
503
I know nothing about, but the only thing is that you don't have to know a lot of things, you have to find the people who are smarter than you are.
504
My first way is always find people who knowledge on computer, smarter than I am.
505
Accounting, smarter than I am.
506
For so many years, I always try to find people smarter than I am.
507
And when you find so many smart people, my job is to make sure the smart people can work together.
508
And then if smart people can work together, it's easier.
509
The vision, the belief.
510
Because if stupid people can work together easily, smart people can never work together.
511
People work together easily, they don't believe the vision.
512
The people who believe the vision, but they don't work together.
513
So very important is finding smart people.
514
And my job is two things.
515
Making sure they work together.
516
So the culture is important.
517
Long term, you should be ideal with great, strong vision leader, but you should also have to survive today.
518
If you don't survive today, you're gone.
519
So the best way to promote your company is not you, it's not me as the CEO.
520
The best way is your product, your services, your employees.
521
The best product of your company is your employee.
522
So I spent a lot of time, early days, for the first 2,000 employees of Alibaba,
523
I speak everybody for one or two hours when they're joining.
524
I said, I will never promise you will be rich.
525
I never promise you will be promoted.
526
But I promise you'll suffer.
527
I promise you will have a terrible life.
528
And all the terrible things I promise when you join this company.
529
But good things.
530
If you promise good things, you are misleading them.
531
Because I cannot promise myself.
532
We know this is the future, but we are not sure that we will be there.
533
But if we don't work together, we all will lose our job.
534
So that's the thing.
535
And they do always say, and I think I've experienced this myself, if you knew how hard it would be, would you do it?
536
And it seems for you a key part of leadership is leaving the ego at the door
537
and being willing to hire people better than you who you can then kind of empower to carry out your vision.
538
Wonderful.
539
Yeah.
540
Hi, I'm Iman from Global Shaper Shaker Hub.
541
How does your experience of being a teacher influence how you run the business today?
542
And do you have any message for those who are working in education space?
543
Thank you.
544
How does your experience of being a teacher in early days influence how you run the business today?
545
Oh, yeah.
546
Let me tell you one thing.
547
I never thought I could be a CEO.
548
I never thought later I'd become a good CEO.
549
One of the things I learned is from teachers.
550
As a teacher, very important character of a teacher is the teacher always expect his students better.
551
I want this student to become a banker, that student to become a mayor, that student is a scientist.
552
This is all teachers want.
553
If you don't have this kind of thinking, it's a terrible teacher.
554
A good teacher always want the other people better.
555
You don't want this teacher in jail, that teacher is bankrupt, that teacher is, you know.
556
So as a CEO, I trained myself, I always want those people to join the company, do better than they thought.
557
And everything the company should do is making sure the good environment to train him to be more positive
558
and everything we do this is a teacher
559
and teacher does not mean I know better than you are everything I know better than you are
560
because I learn from others
561
so a teacher should learn all the time a teacher should
562
share all the time a teacher should always expect the other people better than you are
563
and by the way education it's a good big challenge now
564
if we do not change the way 30 years later we'll be trouble.
565
Because the way we teach, the thing we teach our kids, are the things past 200 years, it's knowledge based.
566
And we cannot teach our kids to compete with machine who is smarter.
567
We have to teach something unique.
568
That is machine can never catch up with us.
569
In this way, 30 years later, our kids have the chance.
570
I hope I answered your question.
571
It's a very difficult one to answer, but what are those skills that you think we need to teach?
572
If we're moving away from knowledge, what are the key things?
573
Value.
574
Believing.
575
Independent thinking.
576
Teamwork.
577
Care for others.
578
These are the soft part.
579
The knowledge may not teach you that.
580
Folks, that's why I think we should teach our kids on sports,
581
the music, the painting, art.
582
So making sure humans should be different from everything we teach should be different from machine.
583
If the machine can do better, you have to think about it.
584
Hi, this is Hashim Al Musawi from Manamah Bahrain.
585
Talking about education and the fourth industrial revolution, we have been talking about people losing their jobs or they are not qualified enough with the skills needed.
586
What are you doing for the people within your company to get up to date, to get continuous learning, to know what's the technologies needed for the future?
587
Thank you.
588
Luckily I don't have to do a lot of these kind of things in my company.
589
Because we are fighting every day for the future.
590
We know if we do not work hard, Facebook, Google, and Amazon, all these are going to do better.
591
Right?
592
So this is why we are globalized.
593
It's a competition, globalized.
594
But we know that it's not about technology competition.
595
All the people today, now like 18 founders, we only have two and a half people engineers.
596
Today we have more than 25,000 engineers.
597
They are all smart people.
598
They do much better job than the 18 years ago.
599
But the only thing I want to make sure that these people have a front of their heart.
600
Because the data we have, the technology we have, if they do not have a great heart inside, we are going to make disaster for the world.
601
Google, Facebook, Amazon, Alibaba, these companies.
602
We are the luckiest company of this century.
603
And if we're lucky, we have the responsibility that we should have a good heart to do something good.
604
But on the other thing I want to say is about that making sure that everything you do is for the future.
605
For example, you know about the single estate?
606
single stay shopping day, November 11 is the day we created.
607
Last year that day we sold 25 billion US dollars for one day.
608
And for the first minute, over 70 to 80 million people rush inside to shop on the mobile phone.
609
So you have to making sure the system is good enough.
610
We have to finish 270,000 transactions per second. Can you imagine that?
611
270,000 transactions per second.
612
If we do not have that kind of computing capability,
613
the whole system will crash because we have several hundred million people waiting to pay the money.
614
So this technology, why we do this for crazy for one day?
615
Because we want to test the technology.
616
This technology should be inclusive.
617
Because we know today in China, we create probably like 100 million package delivery.
618
We believe a day.
619
Five years later, the whole world would deliver one billion packages per day.
620
Think about it.
621
What's the technology?
622
Are we ready for that?
623
So the simplest day is to test this technology and to be inclusive.
624
So making sure the market drives them, not the boss drives them.
625
Thank you, Abby.
626
Thank you, Jack.
627
Jesus Epeda from Mexico, from the Monterey Hub, Global Shaper.
628
We have been talking a lot about our generation, and I really liked the conversation about three years before, three years after.
629
Actually, I have been hearing these days that we haven't had this snow in 30 years here.
630
So the question is going to a quote of Professor Schwab.
631
He said a couple of months ago to the Global Shapers
632
that we're the first generation that is going to suffer about climate change, and we are the last one that can do something about it.
633
So with your teaching passion, what are the three things that you are saying to educate the 30 million employees
634
or the 100 million employees or everyone who's looking this video to develop an environmental mindset, a spiritual mindset, and non-fragmented world mindset.
635
Okay.
636
First, let me say this.
637
Every disaster, the environment disasters, as a reflect of human heart today.
638
Because when we need it too much, we destroy a lot of things.
639
I think the human being today, we, the past 200 years,
640
because of knowledge based technology or knowledge based training system, all we want to do is get more.
641
We want more things.
642
We go to the moon, we go to Mars, we go this, we always are looking.
643
We human being never inside looking.
644
If you don't have the inside looking, you will never be wise.
645
If you're not wise, you never know what you don't want.
646
Today human beings get much more than they expect they should have.
647
So the environmental pollutions, the whole thing happening is because human beings become greedy, become arrogant.
648
So this is why the big data, the data technology is trying to understand the inside of humans.
649
What is the data?
650
It's the human behavior.
651
A lot of people, trust me, the machine will know you better than you know yourself.
652
Have you seen some movies, some gamblers?
653
You know, they're great.
654
They look at the eyes.
655
If you got a good card, this eyeball will shake.
656
But normal people don't see it.
657
The machine sees all the details.
658
Machine know you better.
659
So what I would say is that in the data period, human being next to 100 years, people, human will know, try to understand, inward looking.
660
We will see a lot of ugly things of ourselves.
661
When knowledge-based, outward looking, you see the ugly things of the others and good things when looking, inside looking.
662
This is Chinese philosophy.
663
people, our believing is always inside working.
664
We're supposed to have inside checking every three times a day.
665
But not really.
666
If you can really do that, you can do that.
667
Then you'll be good.
668
So for environment, you're right.
669
If we do not make action,
670
take action, All the money you make will spend in the hospital, medicine.
671
Our kids will be in big trouble.
672
So let's fix it.
673
And first fix our heart, fix our know-how, and fix our belief.
674
When you have a belief, when you have a religion, when you have a value, it's better.
675
So I think this is what I concern to me.
676
This is what I think the young people should always have the value, the mission.
677
If you have something you believe in your heart, that would be different.
678
This is what next 30 years education should be focused on.
679
We have time for one last brief question.
680
Karuna?
681
Thank you.
682
This is Karuna from the Port Louis Harp Mauritius.
683
And my question is, you talked about your workplace culture.
684
I'd like to have one or two examples, if possible, of how do you motivate your employees.
685
And I'd like to throw in the last question is, how much do you sleep?
686
Because this is such a controversial topic, and I keep hearing different versions.
687
Thank you.
688
What do I keep at the different versions?
689
Some people say you don't need sleep.
690
I've heard CEOs sleep only four hours.
691
Sorry, I've heard CEOs sleep only three to four hours, and whereas I've heard, like, you know, you need at least eight hours.
692
So yeah, I'm a bit divided and I'd love to know your secret.
693
Thank you.
694
How do I motivate my colleagues?
695
You have to find the people that can mobilize themselves.
696
It's impossible to encourage an active person.
697
So the people you hire, the people work together, they have to be.
698
we have 65,000 employees now, you cannot hire all of them that positive, but at least the people work with me.
699
My management, leadership, several areas, they have to be positive.
700
They have to know to incentive the others because I cannot incentive everybody and making sure the culture.
701
So I think it would be very painful for me to talk to my vice president
702
and he need to be incentivized and mobilized every time, right?
703
This won't work.
704
If he is not, if he does not know how to incentivize or mobilize his people, it's better.
705
I don't think he will be the vice president.
706
They should be a good engineer, good designer, but not a good leader.
707
A good leader should know how, but not by only money.
708
Most of people incentivize or mobilize not because you give them a lot of money.
709
You give them respect, trust,
710
appreciation, and correct, heartful advice.
711
When it comes to my meetings,
712
internal meetings, you will be shocked because we are not like a lot of the other Chinese company.
713
The boss say, everybody listen, take notes and go down.
714
We are like a war room.
715
We make decisions based on whose voice is louder.
716
Early days, you know, we fight and we talk and then making sure everybody speak up.
717
So this is also a way of mobilizing an incentive.
718
There are a lot of ways and different people have a different way to incentive.
719
How much time I sleep?
720
Yeah, I have a problem.
721
I mean, I don't, I sleep not very short, but not good.
722
And I don't eat a lot.
723
This is something that I was curious.
724
I don't eat a lot.
725
I'm very picky on the food.
726
And I don't know, sometimes I would love to see what the things that make me work like that.
727
But for sure that if I suddenly give me one month's vocation, I'll collapse.
728
It's, I think, there'll be something in my heart.
729
Maybe the mission.
730
At the beginning, it's a mission of 18 people.
731
today we have 65,000 people they all believe the mission so
732
if I give up I could give up my position
733
but I should not give up the mission
734
if I give up everybody say hey no so and
735
that especially today Alibaba at this size people continue to say for this size the growth rate will be tiny
736
or down so what's the 10, 20 years Alibaba would look like?
737
If you want to be, still be greater or triple our size, what's the direction?
738
How to do it?
739
So I spend a lot of time thinking.
740
A lot of time thinking.
741
And I love to think.
742
Good thing is I have a good team now.
743
I think I do the talk, they do the work.
744
Yes.
745
On that note, I think, I'm sorry we didn't

Gölgeleme Tekniği Nedir?
Gölgeleme, başlangıçta profesyonel tercüman eğitimi için geliştirilen ve çok dilli Dr. Alexander Arguelles tarafından popüler hale getirilen, bilim destekli bir dil öğrenme tekniğidir. Yöntem basit ama güçlüdür: ana dili İngilizce olan bir sesi dinler ve hemen yüksek sesle tekrar edersiniz — konuşmacıyı 1-2 saniye gecikmeyle takip eden bir gölge gibi. Pasif dinleme veya dilbilgisi alıştırmalarının aksine, gölgeleme beyninizi ve ağız kaslarınızı gerçek konuşma kalıplarını eşzamanlı olarak işlemeye ve yeniden üretmeye zorlar. Araştırmalar, telaffuz doğruluğu, tonlama, ritim, bağlı konuşma, dinleme anlama ve konuşma akıcılığını önemli ölçüde geliştirdiğini göstermektedir — bu da onu IELTS Konuşma hazırlığı ve gerçek dünya İngilizce iletişimi için en etkili yöntemlerden biri yapar.
