In addition, he also learned from well-known domestic speakers, trainers, business and personal development experts and consultants.

Second, Ma Yun:

As the saying goes, "there is another village after a bright future", with the goal of Peking University, only admitted to Hangzhou Normal University; Three-year college entrance examination, one-year math score 1, one-year score 19. After graduating from college, Ma Yun worked as an English teacher for six and a half years. During this period, he established the first foreign language translation agency in Hangzhou, and worked as a translator in some foreign trade units in his spare time.

Ma Yun said, "I studied English that year. I didn't expect English to help me a lot later. So, as long as you like, as long as you think it's right, you can do anything. If you are very utilitarian in thinking, you will definitely get into trouble. "

Later, because of his good English, the "best English teacher in Hangzhou" was entrusted by the Zhejiang Provincial Communications Department to collect debts in the United States. As a result, the debt was not settled, but it contributed to his ten-year marriage with the Internet.

The Internet was originally an "exotic product". Ma Yun's fluent English gave him an "international passport", which gave him the opportunity to conquer the reporters of Forbes and get on the cover of Forbes early.

So he can make friends with people like Jerry Yang, Masayoshi Son and even Bill Clinton. In this way, he can travel through the Davos Forum and let everyone remember Alibaba. All these have contributed to Ma Yun's international vision, enabling him to obtain funds and do what he wants to do.

Ma Yun said that he has never studied hard, but he still has something to be proud of, and that is English.

Third, Deng Yaping:

1997 retired from Tsinghua University, got a bachelor's degree in 200 1, entered the University of Nottingham in the UK in September of the same year, got a master's degree in 12 in 2002, and entered Cambridge University to study for a doctorate in economics in the same year.

Deng Yaping told the story of a world champion who struggled all the way to school.

Tsinghua: Start by writing 26 English letters.

"When I retired, I began to design my own future path. Some people think that athletes can only continue to engage in sports that they are familiar with, but I just want to prove that athletes can not only play well, but also do other things well. When I am no longer an athlete, my new starting point will begin. " Deng Yaping said.

"1At the end of 1996, I was nominated by Sa Lao as a member of the Sports Committee of the International Olympic Committee. I understand that this is not only the reuse and trust of the International Olympic Committee, but also a severe challenge. The official languages of the International Olympic Committee are English (Forum) and French.

However, at this time, my English foundation is almost zero, and I know nothing about French. Faced with the contrast between such an important job and my foreign language level, I am very anxious. "

1996 After the Atlanta Olympic Games, when Deng Yaping first entered Tsinghua to study English as an undergraduate, her English was almost blank, and she had no English foundation, let alone her oral communication ability.

"With the feelings of excitement and uneasy into Tsinghua. The teacher depends on my level-you write 26 English letters to see. It took me a while to finally write it. After reading uppercase and lowercase letters for a while, I feel a little embarrassed-teacher, that's it. But please rest assured that I will work hard! "

"The story told by the teacher in class is tantamount to a gobbledygook for me. I can only try my best to listen, remember every word, go back to the dormitory, look up the dictionary a little, and recite a little.

I made a study plan for myself: everything starts from scratch, and three firsts are adhered to-learning from the first page of the textbook and memorizing from the first letter and word;

You must guarantee the study time of 14 hours every day, get up at 5 o'clock on time every day, read phonetic symbols, recite words and practice listening until the formal class; Organize the handouts in the evening and review your lessons until 12 midnight.

Because she devoted herself to her studies, Deng Yaping almost completely canceled the party with friends and unrelated social activities, and even called her parents less often.

In order to improve her listening and conversation skills, she not only went to the language lab regularly, but also bought a multifunctional repeater. Because I always read while listening to the tape.

Students always joke with her: "Yaping, you read all day, be careful of your lips!" " ""But I believe that without superhuman efforts, there would be no superhuman achievements. This is also my personal experience in the field for many years. "

The study pressure is great, and the classes are full every day. In addition to studying, Deng Yaping has to travel dozens of miles to the national team training base three times a week, and the degree of fatigue can be imagined. "Every morning, I will find a lot of hair on the pillow, and I will lose a lot of hair when I comb my hair.

I didn't care much, but the coach and teammates were surprised to see me:' Xiao Deng, what's wrong with you?' I said,' Nothing, maybe the brain used for learning is different from the brain used for playing.

Although they are all a word' bitter', I have different feelings at this time: I used to be an athlete and I was too tired to move after training. As long as I heard the cheers, I gritted my teeth and survived; When encountering difficulties and obstacles, the coach dialed a little and got through;

When the game was in trouble, the audience roared for motivation and turned the corner. But reading often requires a person to struggle alone. That poverty and loneliness is another kind of torture. Without will and perseverance, you can't persist. "

In order to master English faster, several English teachers suggested that Deng Yaping study abroad for a period of time. With their enthusiastic help, with the approval of Tsinghua University and the State Sports General Administration, Deng Yaping, who has just studied in Tsinghua for a few months, was sent to Cambridge University in England as an exchange student to attack English with the beginning of 1998.
