The first time she met him, she wanted to be him.
His father is a gambler and his mother is an assembly line worker. Xu Zhao has known since he was a child that there is no room for error in his life. After failing the college entrance examination and falling into junior college, she thought she would be like this for the rest of her life - until that day, she entered the top prestigious school next door.
On the podium, she saw Lu Mingting.
Visiting professor at a prestigious school, president of Mingyuan Group, 32 years old, with a net worth of 4 billion. He stood on the podium, with the cuffs of his white shirt rolled up to his forearms, and with one sentence he subverted her entire understanding of the world.
"The real competitiveness is never based on your diploma."
At that moment, Xu Zhao felt a fire burning in his heart. A college student wants to be like him - if she says this, everyone will think she is crazy.
But Lu Mingting didn't.
From the corner of the last row to the fixed seat in the third row, from being called in public to being invited to attend lectures, from a winter vacation internship to the qualification to audit graduate seminars - Xu Zhao spent one year step by step into the world that she could only look up to.
And Lu Mingting finally asked the question:
"You have accomplished your original goal. What's next?"
Xu Zhao thought for a while and found that the answer was already there.
She wanted to help him build a business school. For all those who, like her, have no way out and can only run forward.

"The thing you think is the most valuable is actually your biggest burden."
"Then tell me, what is my baggage?"
"You feel unworthy."
"Your greatest failure is not daring to fail."
"A degree is just one stone in the moat. You have to dig the other stones yourself."
