Through his days of being an English teacher in a country that is so focused on keeping the western culture out, he felt the pressure of culture on his back. Not having enough money to do anything he wanted, he started small. He created his first company, Alibaba, which we are sure you've heard of. People think of him as the Steve Jobs of China and with a good reason. He was the first person to capitalize on the e-commerce business model, but unlike most people, he didn't have his own product. He solely created Alibaba as a platform to allow small manufacturers to connect to a wider audience, thus becoming a giant in the tech industry. This also opened up China to foreign investment and to foreign markets, since anyone in the world can order something from at least one Chinese e-commerce giant. This kind of engagement through the economy gave Ma great power amongst the Chinese and thus he has influenced even the culture, making the country a little bit more open to western influence.

This extraordinary man has been building his empire for quite some time now. Through this period he has gone through many mistakes, in the business sense, and in economics, and learned a lot of other “tips and tricks” about any type of business. This book is a collection of Jack Ma’s thoughts and his thinking, his mistakes and his fixes. Through the good and the tough times this man has persevered, so for anyone who needs a morale boost or is just looking for great tips from a huge tech figure that has made it big, this book is a must read for you.
