Recently, the topic of Dong Yuhui and New Oriental has aroused widespread discussion. Some people think that it was New Oriental that helped Dong Yuhui achieve his achievements, while others think that it was the opposite - it was Dong Yuhui who saved New Oriental. And in my opinion, the latter is more in line with the facts.

First of all, let's talk about the fact that Dong Yuhui was promoted again
In the early morning of December 18, the Oriental Selection Official announced that Dong Yuhui was back on the air and promoted to senior partner. At the same time, Dong Yuhui was selected by Oriental to be appointed as the cultural assistant to the chairman of New Oriental Education and Technology Group, and concurrently served as the vice president of New Oriental Cultural Tourism Group. After the opening of the day, Dongfang Selection's stock price rose sharply, with a maximum increase of more than 20%, which gave the scheming Lao Yu finally saw a glimmer of hope to save Dongfang Selection.

And then let's analyze the facts of who made & saved whom
First of all, we need to be clear about the concept of what is achievement? Achievement is not a natural talent that comes out of nowhere. On the contrary, achievement is often accompanied by perseverance, dedication and experience. Of course, "opportunity" is also an indispensable factor in this process. But the opportunity can only be regarded as a kind of "introduction", and the real decision of success depends on whether the individual has enough ability to grasp the opportunity.
Back to the relationship between Dong Yuhui and New Oriental. If we say who has helped to achieve what they have achieved, then it is undoubtedly necessary for each to take what they need and benefit each other. "Win-win" can be called cooperation in the true sense. However, there is no such relationship between New Oriental and Dong Yuhui.
As early as 2016, Xindong Convenience has occupied an absolute leading position in the English training industry and has been in the first position in market share for many years. In the state of "dominating the rivers and lakes", New Oriental obviously has no need to seek anyone to "help" its development and growth.
For Dong Yuhui, who has worked for New Oriental for many years, achieved good performance, and is known as the "Godfather of English", he is faced with a major choice on his career path - either to stay in the company and live comfortably, or to venture into the entrepreneurial market to start his own brand.
Clearly, the idea of "creative destruction" was deeply rooted in Dong's mind, and ultimately led him to choose the latter – to create and operate his own brand, China Selection. While the Chinese selection has not been as successful (or perhaps frustrated as expected), this does not obscure its own significance: independent thinking, risk-taking, and scaling new heights.
So far, it can be seen that if we have to emphasize who helped whom to complete the successful trajectory, it should be determined that Dong Yuhui saved New Oriental (or the entire English training industry) - by breaking the original pattern to promote market competition, by promoting industry reform to improve the overall level, through cross-border cooperation to build a world-renowned brand and other ways to drive the entire industry to a higher level.
To sum up, "success" not only belongs to a certain company or a certain person, but also needs to be comprehensively considered in combination with the social background and the conditions of the times. Success comes from diligence and wisdom, and support comes from conscience and trust. In today's world of compatibility, sharing, coexistence and win-win shared values, we should use a pragmatic and inclusive attitude to appreciate every successful person.
