On the sixth day of the new year, a surprising news spread in New Zealand: Jack Ma, a Chinese business magnate and founder of Alibaba Group, appeared at a Chinese restaurant in New Zealand. The news quickly sparked a heated discussion on social media, with people watching and commenting on the legend's behavior.
According to eyewitnesses, Ma Yun was dressed in casual clothes and a hat on his head, chatting and laughing with friends around him with a relaxed expression. The way he wears his hat is a bit draggy, which is a little different from the casual dining of ordinary people. However, for a high-profile figure like Jack Ma, such behavior is also reasonable. After all, wherever he goes, he makes a splash.
Ma Yun did not come this time because of a business inspection, nor did he have a team of bodyguards, just an ordinary morning, he and his family came to taste authentic Chinese food. In the eyes of the townspeople, this is undoubtedly an unexpected surprise, but Ma Yun takes it all very commonplace.
Different from the general rich second generation's attitude to life, Ma Yun has always adhered to a modest and low-key philosophy. He often said, "People should be humble, low-key, sincere to their friends, sincere to their customers, sincere to their partners." This attitude is not only reflected in his words and deeds, but also in his daily life.
Unlike those who wear expensive suits to high-end occasions, Jack Ma wore ordinary casual clothes and an ordinary hat on his head when he visited Chinese restaurants. He sat at an ordinary dining table with his family, without a hint of special treatment. Seeing this, the shopkeeper was warmly welcomed, but Ma Yun maintained a peaceful attitude as always and treated others as equals.
Despite being a billionaire, Jack Ma has never forgotten his original aspirations and family. In his opinion, the warmth and happiness of the family are far more important than money. Every year on the sixth day of the new year, he spends it with his family, which has become a tradition for him. No matter where he is, this special day means a lot to him.
Ma Yun himself and his family are eight or nine people, and although they are in a corner of the restaurant, they can't hide their presence. People's eyes may be on them, but their actions are not in the least influenced by money and fame. Mr. Ma declined the request for a group photo, maintaining a humble attitude and not wanting to put himself in a position of superiority. What's even more touching is that Pony also shows his sensible side, and together with his father, he embodies the importance of family education.
The family's actions have undoubtedly left a deep impression. They do not seek luxury and vanity, but seek substantial value. In a world where money is the yardstick, they explain with practical actions that money does not determine a person's happiness and worth. This attitude to life may be exactly what we need to reflect on.
What's even more interesting is that Ma Yun ordered a table of sumptuous dishes. According to the on-site waiter, these dishes include not only classic Sichuan and Cantonese dishes, but also local New Zealand specialties, which can be described as a wide variety and mouth-watering. Jack Ma and his friends chatted about life and work while tasting delicious food, and the scene was very lively.
However, surprisingly, just as the dishes were about to be eaten, Ma Yun motioned to the waiter to pack the rest of the food. This move caused a wave of surprise and discussion among the people around him. Some people think that this is a very economical act, showing Jack Ma's consistent style as a business tycoon, while others think that it is a message of environmental protection and cherishing food, showing his public welfare feelings.
Afterwards, a friend who accompanied Ma Yun to the meal revealed that the reason why Ma Yun packed leftover food was because he was accustomed to a lifestyle of saving and cherishing resources. He believes that on a planet with limited resources, every bite of food should be cherished and used wisely, not wasted. This is also a concrete embodiment of the concept of "saving environmental protection and cherishing resources" that he has been advocating.
The scene of Jack Ma's meal in New Zealand on the sixth day of the Lunar New Year seems ordinary, but it contains profound connotations. His hat may be a bit of a drag, but it also shows his unique personality, and the fact that he orders so much food and then takes the rest away shows that he is both affordable and environmentally conscious. These actions undoubtedly convey positive values to society and set an example for each of us.
Jack Ma's change in appearance has also attracted attention. His tanned skin and hat-wearing behavior trying to keep a low profile still can't hide his unique temperament. Even in a foreign land, he was still recognized. Perhaps, this is also a kind of emotion about his attitude towards life.
Jack Ma's family taught us a vivid life lesson. They illustrate what true happiness and worth are. In this glitzy world, their low-key and humble are even more precious. Perhaps, we should all learn to feel the beauty of life with our hearts, just like them, instead of being confused by the glitz of the outside world. That's where true wisdom lies.
