   On September 19th,Alibaba went public (上市) on the New York Shock Exchange. It shows that Ma Yun has done his business successfully. A short Chinese man seems to be the tallest man in the world right now. Ma used to be an English teacher. So far,he has become the richest man on the Chinese mainland.

   Ma was born in Hangzhou and grew up as a happy kid. At the age of twelve,he found that English was very interesting. Every morning he got up at 5 am,and then ran to a hotel near the West Lake where he could communicate with foreign tourists in English. He did it for nine years. The experience made him become a fantastic English speaker and also opened his eyes to the wide world. In a 1995 trip to the US,Ma was shown to the Internet for the first time. Seeing the chance,Ma returned to China and set up a website without knowing much about computers. Four years later,Ma set up Alibaba in Hangzhou. People called him “Crazy Jack Ma”. But fifteen years later,Alibaba has developed into the world's largest e-commerce (電子商務(wù)) company.
