Alibaba is an ecosystem that helps small business to grow.

It doesn’t matter if I failed. At least I passed the concept on to others. Even if I don’t succeed, someone will succeed.

Our philosophy is, using internet technology, we can make every company become Amazon.

I want to change history, do something important in my life, and influence individuals like we have with millions of small businesses on Alibaba. Then they love and respect you because you made their life important.

It’s not that other countries steal jobs from you guys. It’s your strategy. Distribute the money and things in a proper way.

We believe in the dignity of man as an individual, whatever his race, colour or creed, and his right to better, fuller, and richer life.

I don’t believe in proving a point to anybody. Nobody is that important.

I am inspired by those who have the courage to do things that have never been done before; things that were believed to be impossible.
