Serious Jack Ma, Rejected for Job at KFC, Buys Piece of It Instead

[SNTCK]

When Chinese internet tycoon Jack Ma was starting his career, he reportedly got rejected by dozens of employers, among them Kentucky Fried Chicken, which had recently entered China at the time. He later went on to become China’s richest person, founding e-commerce giant Alibaba. Now Alibaba’s financial affiliate Ant Financial will become part owner of KFC in China through an investment in the soon-to-be spun off Yum China.

What would a financial company want with fried chicken? Customers. Ant Financial’s Alipay product is the leading mobile payments app in China. It and Alibaba also have a joint venture food delivery service called Koubei, into which KFC and Pizza Hut’s many locations can be plugged. Ant gains an observer role on Yum China’s board. Sometimes a job rejection sets the table for future success.

I fully agree. Many companies in Sinkapore enjoy rejecting applicants and opt for cheap 3rd world monkies. These companies is a typical example of "got eyes but no Tarzan material".

KFC should stop buying heavily antibiotics fed chickens.

Every time I eat KFC, I fall sick easily.

One thing you can consider is to stop eating KFC.

But how many rejects went on to become Tarzan(s) ? As far as I know, most of them ended up as taxi drivers and security guards. The few special ones ended up with Gilbert Goh.

According to Wiki, " Ma struggled to attend college. The Chinese entrance exams are held only once a year and it took Ma four years to pass.............."

In the same situation in scholarcentric red dot, Ma will probably not be able to enter university and without connections, will struggle to succeed in a business environment dominated by MNC's, GLC's and NTUC and property companies raking in billions .
Any chance of a chap like that venturing into business here will probably be killed by the burden of having to pay his HDB loans,maid levy, COE ect2

Needless to say, you will never see a Jack Ma equivalent here.

jack ma would never make it in sg because he got extremely lucky he started a company that happened to be a it company when he knew nothing about it even till today,that happened to be about ecommerce,that happened to be in china,the biggest most humongous ecommerce market in the world amounting to hundreds of billions even trillions of dollars,and he was supremely lucky that he started in backwards china when the internet infrastructure was still in its infancy in 2000 and he was the first and there was no competition.

he got extremely lucky the stars of the universe was aligned for him otherwise he would not be the richest man in asia today,richer than li ka shing but less than 1/10th the talent or intellect.
