“There's a lot of things I can learn from Bill Gates. I can never be as rich, but one thing I can do better is to retire earlier,” Mr Ma said in the interview. “I think some day, and soon, I'll go back to teaching. This is something I think I can do much better than being CEO of Alibaba.
馬云在接受采訪時(shí)說：“我從比爾蓋茨的身上學(xué)到很多。我的財(cái)富已經(jīng)不可能超過他了，但有一件事我可以超過他，那就是比他早退休。我預(yù)想著某一天，或者就在不久的未來，我會(huì)重回教師崗位。做一些比在阿里巴巴當(dāng)CEO更有價(jià)值的事情。”

“I've prepared a Jack Ma Foundation,” he added. “All these things that I've been preparing for 10 years.”
他說：“我已經(jīng)預(yù)備建立一個(gè)‘馬云基金會(huì)’為此我已經(jīng)籌劃10年了?！?/div>
