  Bâtir l'Empire du E-Commerce — Le Grand Horizon qui a Changé le Destin 1. Prologue : Le vieux vélo de Hangzhou et l'éveil du jeune homme fâché avec l'anglais Hangzhou, province du Zhejiang, Chine. Né le 10 septembre 1964, l'enfance de Jack Ma était bien loin de celle de l'héritier d'un vaste empire ; c'était le paysage par excellence d'une famille de classe ouvrière ordinaire et luttant pour s'en sortir. À cette époque, la Chine sortait tout juste de la tempête massive de la Révolution culturelle ; l'économie était dévastée et le monde restait fermé. Pour un jeune homme petit et mince nommé Jack Ma, la seule chose qui faisait battre son cœur était « l'anglais ». Dans une ville où les étrangers étaient pratiquement inexistants, il a commencé à faire du vélo chaque matin vers les grands hôtels de la ville pendant son adolescence. Chaque fois qu'il apercevait des touristes étrangers, il s'approchait d'eux sans hésiter, criant « Hel...

  Building the E-commerce Empire — The Grand Horizon That Changed Fate 1. Prologue: Hangzhou's Worn Bicycle and the English-Challenged Young Man's Awakening Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province, China. Born on September 10, 1964, Jack Ma’s childhood was far from that of an heir to a massive empire; it was the quintessential landscape of an ordinary, struggling working-class family. At that time, China had just emerged from the massive storm of the Cultural Revolution; the economy was devastated, and the world remained closed off. For a short, thin young man named Jack Ma, the only thing that made his heart race was "English." In a city where foreigners were virtually nonexistent, he began riding his bicycle every morning to the city’s large hotels during his teens. Whenever he spotted foreign tourists, he would approach them unhesitatingly, shouting "Hello" and volunteering as a free guide, thereby training his ears and opening his mouth. Clutching a broken radio thr...

Prologue: The Tempest of Natal Four Pillars (四柱) and the Destiny of Creating Existence Out of Nothing (無) From the perspective of saju-myeongrihak (four pillars of destiny), the cosmic energy of the time and space into which a human is born is like a mirror that transparently reflects the trajectory of their life and the essence of their inner self. Born on October 17, 1958, Park Hyeon-joo, the chairman of Mirae Asset Group, entered the world precisely at the intense turning point where autumn's deep harvest transitions into winter's strict rigor. Astrologically, this season carries the powerful, surging energy of metal and water (金水)—a fierce equilibrium of sharp decisiveness and immense stored wealth. In particular, the traits embedded within his birth chart refuse to settle for established order; they embody the destiny of a "pioneer and innovator" who fearlessly drops seeds onto barren land to cultivate a massive forest. Unlike the majority of tycoons who started ...

Global Billionaires Masterpiece Series — No. 98 1. Prologue: The Heavy Shadow and the Born Rebel In the history of South Korean conglomerates, the title of "the founder's eldest son" is usually an impregnable fortress and at the same time an inescapable prison. Born as the eldest son of the late Lee Dong-chan, who built the Kolon Group, this prison was particularly tall and solid for Lee Woong-yeol. Born on April 18, 1956, under the sign of the monkey, he was naturally endowed with relentless curiosity and a free-spirited soul. However, the environment surrounding him forced him to wear the mask of a thorough model student and an obedient "successor." While Chairman Lee Dong-chan was widely known to the public for his unique sense of humor and sociability, he remained the embodiment of traditional Confucian authoritarianism at home and within the corporate walls. The fame and the massive brand of "Kolon" built by his father served as a sturdy shield fo...
