20180321 麦克风day305 story about LiKa-shing

Despite the diminutive frame, Li Ka-shing is by any measure one of the giants of the business world. A refugee in wartime Hong Kong, he went on to establish an empire that controls ports at both ends of the Panama Canal, produces oil in the United States and operates telecommunications in the UK. Hailed as one of the greatest entrepreneurs in history, this is the Li Ka-shing story.   I have been very fortunate. When I was young I enjoyed studying. I wasn’t even 10 when I got into junior high. I was working and studying at the same time. So it was a race against time to learn more. I started my own business in 1950. I only had some of my savings and some money borrowed from my relatives. I had about US$6500 to start my business.   尽管身材矮小，但是李嘉诚毫无疑问是商业世界的一个巨人。作为一个二战时期来到香港的难民，李嘉诚随后建立了一个帝国，控制了巴拿马运河两岸的港口，在美国生产石油，并且在英国运营通讯。这就是被人们称为有史以来最伟大企业家之一的李嘉诚的故事。   我以前非常幸运。我小的时候很喜欢学习。我进入中学的时候还不到10岁。我一边工作一边学习，这就是一场和时间的赛跑，尽可能地多学习。我在1950年创业，当时只有一些自己的存款和从亲戚那借的钱，大概只有6500美元而已。
