Greeting from Jack Maa
.
Good afternoon, and thank you so much for inviting me. And i feel little bit nervous because the Moscow University is my idol. When I was child
- I learned so much aboud a Moscow
- learn so much about Soviet Union,
- learned so much about the all the things that are happening the size of Moscow University.
And you guys are so smart, you know learning physics and chemistry and all this great stuff you. You know i'm not a good at learning schools, I failed for three times for entering university. In my life, i never thought i would be able to speak here. I never even brave enough to say i want to be a student of Moscow University. So thank you for inviting me, thank you for sharing.
Selamat sore temen2, Terima kasih banyak telah mengundangku kesini. Dan tahukah kalian? aku merasa sedikit gugup karena Universitas Moskow ini adalah impianku. Saat aku masih kecil,
- aku banyak belajar tentang Moskow.
- tentang Negara Besar Uni Soviet ini.
- dan juga tentu saja tentang Universitas Moskow yang megah ini.
Dan kalian temen2, yang berkesempatan untuk sekolah disini adalah anak2 yang cerdas, anda menguasai fisika, kimia, dan hal2 yang menarik lainya. Asal kalian tahu ya, aku itu tidak terlalu pintar dalam pelajaran sekolah, tahukah apa buktinya? aku gagal tiga kali untuk masuk ke dalam jenjang perkuliahan. Benar2 di dalam hidupku, tidak pernah bermimpi untuk bisa bicara di depan kalian semua. Aku bahkan tidak cukup punya keberanian untuk bermimpi untuk jadi Mahasiswa Universitas Moskow. Jadi terima kasih telah mengundangku, terima kasih telah berbagi.
Fail and Success
.
About the question that i have a lot of terrible experience, made a lot of mistakes, when i was young and child. I think, if you succeed every mistakes become a legenderay, if you fail that's just a garbage. You know i'm saying, i think everybody has great stories, everybody had a lot of mistakes. Everybody had a lot of problems but very few people listen to you. One day when you become succesful people listen to you. See WOW you're great.
I'm not that great, I was born a normal family and i'm not good at schooling, of course i tried to study hard. But as a boy, you know, my school was not that good at that time. So i felt looking for job, looking for joining university, joining goose goose. But i never give up. And i think there's one think i learned, why you should have a chance to be succesful. EVERYBODY should get used to fail, but not get used to be accepted by other people. Why other people should help you? You should earn the right to be helped. So the think i learned, is that don't give up, my opportunity has not come yet, when everybody complain, that is the opportunity.
Aku memiliki banyak pengalaman (buruk), membuat banyak kesalahan, ketika masih muda. Jika kalian bisa sukses melewati kesalahan yang pernan kau lakukan, engkau akan menjadi seorang legend. Tetapi jika engkau gagal, itu akan menjadi sampah kehidupan. Setiap orang punya kisah yang menarik dalam hidupnya, setiap orang pernah melakukan kesalahan, setiap orang punya masalah masing2, tetapi sedikit orang yang mendengarkanmu. Suatu hari, ketika engkau menjadi orang yang sukses, orang2 akan berkata.. woww... hebat sekali kamu.
Aku tegaskan, aku bukan orang yang berada, sebelumnya. Aku terlahir di keluarga yang biasa2 saja, dan aku tidak terlalu pintar di sekolah, oleh karena itu aku berusaha untuk belajar. Masa mudaku tidak sekolah di sekolah yang bagus. Bahkan aku gagal dalam memperoleh pekerjaan, masuk kuliah, dan lain2. Ada satu hal yang aku pelajari, yaitu kenapa kamu bisa mendapatkan kesempatan untuk jadi sukses? Setiap orang harus terbiasa dengan kegagalan. Bukan malah terbiasa untuk diterima oleh orang lain, ide2nya. Kenapa orang lain harus membantumu? Engkau harus menempatkan diri di tempat yang tepat, kenapa engkau layak untuk ditolong. Jadi jangan menyerah.. ketika kesempatanmu belum datang. Justru ketika ada orang yang mengkritikmu, kesempatan itu terang benderang mendatangimu.
Planning for ten years
.
I always thought, when i was young, when i was gradual in high school or university, I thought Bill Gates took up my job, Bill Gates did all succesful things. Larry Ellison from the Oracle, they took the wonderful opportunities, IBM benefit. We People have no opportunity. And I think I aim too high, i should aim to support and helped the people around me to tiny things, I never thought i could be today. After 18years Alibaba becomes today's size.
Not because i'm smart, i don't think i'm a smart person, but i worked a lot of smart people. And Most of smart people to do succesful things, quick easy things. And I think is not easy to be succesful quickly. Everytime, everything we do, we prepare for ten years. I know i'm not smart. If we want to be succesful, we have to win ten years later.
Saat masih muda, saat baru lulus SMA, saat seusia anak kuliah, aku berpikir bahwa Bill Gates telah mengambil jatah pekerjaanku. Bill Gates adalah orang yang sangat sukses sekali. Larry Ellison yang merupakan pendiri Oracle, itu juga mengambil begitu baik kesempatan yang ada, termasuk IBM benefit.
Kita seakan2 tidak punya kesempatan, dan kupikir ini tujuanku terlalu tinggi. Aku harus bermanfaat untuk mensupport orang di sekitarku, dengan hal2 yang kecil. Dan tak berpikir untuk bisa jadi sebesar sekarang. Setelah 18tahun, Alibaba menjadi sebesar ini. Ini semua BUKAN karena aku cerdas, tetapi aku bekerjasama dengan banyak orang pintar. Dan kebanyakan orang pintar itu ingin sukses dengan cara yang mudah. Dan aku pikir, tidak ada cara yang mudah untuk sukses secara cepat. Setiap waktu, setiap hal yang kita kerjakan, kita menyiapkanya untuk sepuluh tahun ke depan. Aku tahu, aku bukanlah orang yang pintar. Jika kita ingin menjadi orang yang sukses, kita harus mempersiapkan hal yang baik dalam sepuluh tahun ke depan.
Work with Smart
.
If we want to be succesful, we have to work with smart people. If we want to be succesful, we should make a lot of mistakes, and never give up. A lot of people, they make mistakes, make problem, they give up. We never give up, we learned from mistakes. And I think when we fill the message, the experience, that i want to give a device i give you. You were judged the person will be succesful not by where he fell he thinks his fault or the other fault. If he thinks my fail because of the others, this guy has no chance.
Those people who fail, always think, hmmm this is my fault. I do not do properly. I Should change care a change there, these guys, have opportunities. So I learn a lot, from those people, who fail. I learn a lot from those people who made mistakes. I learn a lot from my mistakes.
Jack Maa's Life Attitude
.
So this is my life attitude, when i fail, i say.. see... our fail. When i succeed well i never know, i could be succesful. This make me very positive and optimistic. And because of so many mistakes, too much failure, that make me never complain. Because i get used to that. We are making mistakes everyday, even to today. We made stupid decisions almost everyday. No body knows, we thought is smart, but finally proved stupid. But we learn, we learn, we do again, we learn, we do again. That's the way, that's the live attitude. Thank you...
Jika kita ingin sukses, kita seharusnya bekerjasama dengan orang yang pintar. Kalau kita ingin sukses, kita juga bisa mengkonversi kesalahan menjadi hal yang bisa menjadi pelajaran, jangan pernah putus asa dengan kesalahan. Banyak orang yang berbuat salah, bikin masalah tetapi dia tidak pernah putus asa. Dia tak pernah putus asa, justru malah belajar dari kesalahan. Aku pikir, jika kita memenuhi syarat, dan punya pengalaman, dan kita butuh sebuah alat untuk itu, aku akan memberikanya. Engkau menilai seseorang akan sukses bukan dari yang mana yang bersalah, kesalahanku? atau kesalahan orang lain? Jika kita termasuk orang yang kesalahanku adalah kesalahan orang lain, maka peluang untuk jadi sukses dari orang itu jadi lebih kecil atau bahkan tidak punya kesempatan untuk sukses.
Seseorang yang melakukan kesalahan, dan berkata.. oh ini karena aku yang salah. Aku tidak sesuai prosedur melakukanya, atau lemah dalam hal ini itu. Maka aku akan memperbaikinya disini, dan memperbaiki caranya begini, maka orang itu sangat berpeluang untuk sukses. Jadi aku sangat mempelajari / belajar atas orang yang pernah melakukan kesalahan.
Ini adalah sikap saya dalam hidup ini, ketika saya melakukan kesalahan, lihatlah... ini karena salah kita. Tetepi ketika kita bisa melewati masalah, aku tak pernah tahu bagaimana aku bisa melewatinya seperti ini. Hal ini menjadikan saya positif dan optimis, Oleh karenanya, saya tidak pernah komplain kepada orang lain atas kesalahan dan kegagalan yang pernah kita buat. Kenapa demikian, karena saya sudah terbiasa dengan hal itu.
Kita itu melakukan kesalahan hampir setiap hari, bahkan sampai hari ini. Kita telah melakukan keputusan yang salah, kita bisa mengakuinya bahkan ketika tidak ada seorang pun tahu itu. Kita sebelumnya berpikir bahwa kita melakukan hal yang baik, tetapi setelahnya terbukti kalau kita telah melakukan keputusan yang konyol. Hal itu tidak membuat kita putus asa, kita pelajari itu, kemudian bangkit untuk berusaha lagi, pelajari lagi, bangkit berusaha lagi. Itulah bagaimana kita hidup di dunia ini, seharusnya...
That Alibaba was born in China but it was created for the whole world so can you tell us what Alibaba does now outside of China and in particular in Russia.
Basic to Start Bussiness
.
Yeah Alibaba start from
- no money,
- no technology,
- no people
in my apartment. Eighteen people decide that we want to using Internet technology to help small business that was the idea after 18 years we grow from 18 people to today close to 60,000 people. It is really not easy but we survived today we are one of the biggest Internet companies in the world. I think we're lucky we made so many mistakes but we still survive. How can you be continued to be lucky that is the question keep on asking me. I think if you want to continue to be lucky you have to give your luck to the others. You give luck to the others you help others the opera's in the future will help you that was my our thinking in the past 10 years
Alibaba bermula tanpa uang, tanpa teknologi, tanpa banyak orang, yaitu di apartemen saya. 18 Orang yang kita ingin menggunakan teknologi internet untuk membantu UMKM, itu ide sebelumnya. Setelah delapan belas tahun berlalu, 18 orang itu berubah menjadi 60000 orang. Ini bener2 tidak mudah untuk tetap bertahan sampai sekarang sebagai salah satu perusahaan terbesar yang menggunakan teknologi internet. Aku kira kita beruntung banget, kita melakukan banyak kesalahan, tetapi kita bisa bertahan sampai sekarang. BAGAIMANA kalian bisa terus menerus beruntung (lucky)? itu adalah pertanyaanya. Aku pikir, ketika engkau ingin terus beruntung, maka bagikan keuntungan anda kepada orang lain, manfaat yang kita punya ke orang lain. Engkau memberi, kepada orang lain, menolong orang lain, maka

Alibaba was born in China but Alibaba should not be a Chinese company. The name the day when I choose the name Alibaba, Alibaba is not a Chinese name.
