Yu was born in a small village in Jiangyin City, Jiangsu Province. His father is a carpenter. Yu didn't do well in the high school exam. 1978, he took part in the college entrance examination for the first time in his life but failed. He only got 33 points in English. The next year, I took the exam again, and scored 55 points in English, still lagging behind Sun Shan. After failing the college entrance examination, I returned to the countryside to raise pigs and farm. A quiet life in the countryside is like a stagnant pool, but before long, he can't stand it. Leaving the countryside to live in the city was his dream, and the college entrance examination was the only way out for the countryside at that time. Despite the difficult living conditions, Yu insisted on studying under the dim kerosene lamp.

Yu, a native of Jiangyin City, Jiangsu Province, graduated from the Department of Western Languages in Peking University. He is currently the chairman of New Oriental Education Group, the vice chairman of China Young Entrepreneurs Association and a member of all-china youth federation. 1980 was admitted to the department of western languages in Peking University, and stayed as a teacher after graduation. 199 1 resigned from Peking university and entered the field of private education. 1993 Beijing New Oriental School was founded.

It was rated as one of the top ten rising stars with the most appreciation potential by the media and one of the 25 entrepreneurs who influenced China in the 20th century.

20 16,15122 October, I was selected as one of the "Dangdang's influential writers of the year" business elite writers. 20 16 March, the royalty income was 1 10,000 yuan, and it was listed in the new sub-list of "Entrepreneur Writers List" of the 10th Writers List.

In Peking University, Yu is the only student in the class who comes from the countryside. I didn't speak Mandarin at first, but I was transferred from Class A to Class C, which was very poor. In most people's eyes, Yu is a taciturn and neglected underachiever, but the love that others talk about is a complete vacuum for him. He said that his desire for love made him "want to jump on any girl". It is obviously exaggerated, but it still describes his state of mind at that time.

During my four years in Peking University, I read all kinds of literature, philosophy, social science and other natural science works that I can understand every day. When I graduated in four years, I read a lot of books, but English books became the second thing. Therefore, during his four years in Peking University, he learned English badly.

1985 graduated from Peking University and stayed as a foreign language teacher. When he graduated from college, Yu was still at the bottom of his class. However, at that time, he already had a good attitude. I know I can't compare with my classmates intellectually, but I have one ability, that is, continuous efforts. exist

Because doing training outside angered the school, Peking University gave him a punishment at that time. He found it boring to stay, so he chose to leave. It was the end of 199 1 and he was about to turn 30. Walking out of Peking University became a watershed in his life.

"Peking University kicked me. I was full of resentment, and now I am full of gratitude. " Yu said, "If I keep mixing, I may be an associate professor in the English Department of Peking University now."

These fortunes and misfortunes were all met by him at Peking University. However, instead of feeling depressed and resigning, I decided to leave. This is the spirit of Peking University, and this is the "rebellion" created by Peking University spirit.
