用我母亲的话说，生意是通过机遇与谈判达成的。

原文英文

There are usually two types of people who achieve success: one pursues success as a goal, and the other is forced by survival, knowing that failure is not an option. The rest can only live ordinary lives.

So far, I believe that survival is the first challenge every person must face.

Most people, like me, do not come from wealthy families, so after graduating from university, they must find work and learn to support themselves.

After marriage, most people, like me, do not find affluent partners. Two ordinary workers start planning their lives together—buying a house, raising children, preparing for their education… This is the reality for most, including myself.

I still remember my early days in Shenzhen. That period truly made me understand what survival means.

Because of my mother, I went to Shenzhen after graduating, giving up a job at a foreign company to help with her business. The so-called company was essentially a shell. Along with my mother and several relatives with dreams of wealth, we worked in a residential building in Shenzhen, busy every day, interacting with all sorts of people. In my mother's words, business is made through encounters and negotiations.

My mother disappeared from my life when I was four and suddenly reappeared when I was eighteen. For me, as a young girl, she was both mysterious and close. When she asked me to come to Shenzhen to help after graduation, I went without hesitation.
