Boris went to the US at 21 with no knowledge of English, eating instant noodles for weeks and using paper as chopsticks when he had no utensils, then he worked hard to learn English and made many friends in the states.
Later, he went back to Taiwan to start a business. Initially, it was really successful, it made him millions. However, this success did not last very long. His business unfortunately failed in 2009, losing millions of RMB. So he soon switched to selling squid soup at night markets and stamps during the day for tourists. Because he had the previous record of losing millions, most of the companies would not hire him.
Few months later, A friend then invited him to manage education institutions, where he rebuilt his confidence there, first working for others then starting his own company. Though hit hard by the pandemic, colleagues and parents supported him.
Now he works with students across many different countries. One lesson that he learns from his career is that always look forward to the future, and that being successful is only temporary state.
