We are very happy.
...It's very good, thank you very much...
Call him crazy, a Chinese villager , left school at 12, running a Tex-Mex restaurant? 26 year old Peter Luo has banked his future on selling burritos to Beijing. Yes, you can certainly call him crazy.
Peter Luo: My financing education is zero, I only know how to count it zero to ten.
But don't laugh too soon, this culinary quirk 1, a Tex-Mex Chinese is catching 2 on.
We're thoroughly 3 amazed by (ur) the fact that he...um,he, stopped his education at the age of 12 and he's been hugely successful like this at the...at 23 he said now, so we're in awe 4 of him."
"...we have some similarities..."
These American MBA students are studying Peter Luo as a real-life textbook case of making it in the new China. Little education and younger than most of the students themselves, Peter is putting into practice what they are still learning about.
Our group has come to China to try to understand how do things work, how does business work?
So whatever you do...you pay more attention...",
Peter has a simple lesson for them, a motivation that is driving a new generation of Chinese entrepreneurs.
I am so afraid ( of ) getting poor...
Peter Luo knows all about being poor, he comes from a small village in southwest China, his family are farmers. But Peter's life changed when he met a woman he now calls "his American mother".
Meredith Dunton from Texas, (地名) came to China to teach Engilsh, ran an American food restaurant in Beijing. Peter worked as a cook, but Merry Dove saw much more in him. She sent him to culinary school, taught him the tricks of Texas cooking. With her guidance and finacial backing, from that, has come all of this.
I can't pay anything back, but at least I can ,you know, really respect in what she (has) done on me, so I want to call her 'mother'.
One restaurant is now 3, Peter dreams of opening a chain like KFC or Mcdonald's ,a testament 5 to Peter's hard work, but also to a changing China.
China is getting more open, Chinese people are getting changed, developed, and their economy getting,er, changed too, so people want(s) to try special things,new things.
And now, for the taste test.
Best meal we've had in China..."
One of the benefits of doing a story on someone who owns a restaurant is getting to taste the finished products. So,here it goes! It tastes like that, the future is certainly as big as Texas.
