   When I graduated, I was the only one of 500 students assigned to teach at a university. My pay was 100 to 120 yuan(RMB), which is like $12 to $15 per month. I always had a dream that when I finished my five years, I would join a business-a hotel or whatever. I just wanted to go and do something. In 1992, the business environment started improving I applied 1 for a lot of jobs, but nobody wanted me! I was turned down for secretary to the general manager of a Kentucky Fried Chicken.


  毕业后,我是所有500名学生中唯一一个分配到高校任教的毕业生。我的工资是每月100~120元人民币,相当于12~15美元。我一直梦想着当我五年的教师任职期满后,自己会进入到某个商业领域,比如说酒店业或是什么的。我就是想做出点名堂来。1992年,商业环境开始有所改善。我申请了许多职位,但没人要我!我曾申请肯德基总经理秘书这个职位,结果被拒绝了。
  Then, in 1995, I went to Seattle as an interpreter for a trade delegation 2. A friend showed me the Internet there for the first time. We searched the word "beer" on Yahoo and discovered that there was no data about China. We decided 3 to launch a website and registered the name "China Pages".
  之后到了1995年,我作为一个商贸代表团的随团翻译来到了西雅图。一位朋友第一次向我介绍了因特网这个东西。我们在雅虎上搜索了“啤酒” (beer)这个词,结果在网上没有发现有关中国的任何资料。于是我们决定做一个网页并取名为“中国黄页”。
  I borrowed $2, 000 to set up the company. I knew nothing about personal computers or e-mails. I had never touched a keyboard before that. That's why I call myself "blind man riding on the back of a blind tiger."
  我借了2,000美元开办了这家公司。我对个人电脑和电子邮件可谓是一无所知。在那之前,我都没有碰过电脑键盘。这就是为什么我自称为做“骑在瞎老虎身上的盲人”
