The Story of Glass-steel Cup
A peasent had only two years of education in middle school. He then returned home to work on farm because of the poverty of his family.His father passed away when he was 19.His mother was in a poor health and his grandmother was paralyzed and was bedridden.All the family burdens fell on his shoulders.
In the 1980s,he heard that raising chickens could earn a lot money so be boeeowed 500 yuan to start raising chicks.An unexpected plague attacked the chicks after a floor and all the chicks died within days.His mother could not stand the stimulation and died,depressed.
He tried brewing wine and fishing.He even tried dyanmiting holes in the cliff of a mine,but never made money.At the age of 35,he was still not married.
He still struggled.He borrowed money to buy a tractor.Little did he know that within two weeks,he would accidentally rush into a river on the tractor.He broke one of his legs and became lame.The tractor was unable to be repaired and was sold as trash.
Almost everyone claimed he would continue in the same manner for the rest of his life.
Many years later he bacame the president of a company worth 200 million yuan.A reporter asked him in an interview,"What kept you from giving up when things were so hard for you?"
The man finished drinking a cup of water in his hand and replied,"If I open my hand,what would happen to the cup?"
The reporter said,"It will surely break."
"Let's try it."
He opened his hand and the cup fell to the gruond with a clang,but it did not break.He said,"Ten out of ten people think the cup will undoubtedly break,but the cup is not an ordinary glass cup.It is made of unbreakable glass."
