――Liu Guozong Spring Diary fifty-two

Qi Wabo was born in the countryside of Meiguo. Due to family poverty, Qi Wabo received no education in his youth. To make a living, 15-year-old Qi Wabo dropped out of school and went to a mountain village to work as a stablehand. But, in order to change his fate, no matter when or where, he never gave up his ideals and pursuits; seeking opportunities to display himself and improve himself.

At age 18, Qi Wabo brought his dreams and pursuits to a construction site of Steel King Carnegie to work.

Other workers only know to work hard and complain about low wages, while Qi Wabo, besides working hard, also used every available time to self-study construction knowledge.

When others rest, chat, and play, Qi Wabo always hides in a corner, head down, reading the Classic of Documents.

Among the workers, someone mocked and ridiculed Qi Wabo. Qi Wabo said: 'I am not just working for the boss, nor merely to earn money; I am working for my dream, for my great future. I can only improve myself through performance. I want the value created by my work to far exceed my salary. Only then can I be valued and get a chance for promotion.'

One day, the company manager came to the construction site to inspect work; the workers were resting. He saw Qi Wabo reading the Classic of Documents in a corner of the site, walked over, casually flipped through Qi Wabo's notes, and left without saying anything.

The next day, the manager summoned Qi Wabo to the office and asked: 'What are you studying those things for?' Qi Wabo answered the manager: 'I think our company does not lack workers; it lacks technical personnel or managers who have both work experience and professional knowledge.' The manager nodded, and soon Qi Wabo was promoted to technician. Afterwards,

Qi Wabo relied on his own diligence and hard work to be promoted to chief engineer.

At age 25, Qi Wabo became the general manager of this construction company.

Several years later, Qi Wabo was appointed chairman of the steel company by Steel King Carnegie.

Relying on his own work enthusiasm, wisdom, and management ability, Qi Wabo now founded the large Bethlehem Steel Company, becoming one of the world's steel kings, fulfilling his dream from his worker days.
