1. Alibaba CEO Zhang Yong: Fun comes from creating value rather than destroying others
Alibaba CEO Zhang Yong said, "I think the fun of doing business comes from creation. Of course, business is also a game, and sometimes it is a war, but the biggest difference between it and real war is that it creates value, not destroys others. This is the most important source of creativity, otherwise there will be no fun. Hate or jealousy, and life-and-death, cannot bring creativity." (First Financial Daily)

5. Jack Ma: Don’t find friends to do business together. Making friends does not depend on how successful people are.
Jack Ma mentioned at the Davos Forum that he saw classmates who were studying in a business school together, and they had a good friendship. After that, they started doing business together, but in the end they didn't work. "I have studied it. People always say that doing business is like a wedding, and doing business in partnership is like getting married, but in fact it is not like that. I suggest you don't find friends, don't let them become your partner, and build a company together." In Jack Ma’s view, making friends does not mean how successful the person is. Being able to provide advice and support to each other is the most important thing. (Sina Technology)
