| [face=Arial]I stayed at the textile company for one month, studied textile there from the beginning. I read almost the books I could find which were related to textile and visited each department and workshop of the company followed the textile procedure. These experiences were very new and helpful for me. Although I worked as a vice general manager in a group company for years before I was transferred to the government department, and there was a textile factory in the group company, too, but I never got such a comprehensive training. Not as a manager, but a normal employee, I experienced and gained a lot of knowledge on textile. But there were still something I was afraid of and unsatisfied. The first was my dread of the infectious disease of SARS. When I visited Canada at the end of March, 2003, some cases of SARS were found in Toronto, and the hospital where SARS was found was isolated and most residents there went out with respirators. Newspapers said SARS was imported from China. Someone blamed the disease on visiting Chinese and people who visited China. There were rumors said people who newly came to Canada were forbidden to take airplane and other vehicles. We became anxiously and worried if we could go back home, and we didn’t buy medical insurance and if you got ill…we dread very much. After we came back China and we found the north of China was peaceful and no one worried SARS. So I went to the company at the end of Apr. 2003. But the situation changed very quickly. One week later, we were told the all the traveling people were not allowed to go home directly without 14 days isolation. And all the channels of highway were guarded by local residents and all the new comers were not allowed to enter. I worried again. I should have not come to the company at this situation. And what could I do if I got infected by SARS? Everyday I rang home and my wife told me there were many rumors in our city and people rushed to buy all the necessities and prepared for the disease came. She asked me to return home earlier and my parents worried me very much, too. I thought if that was hard time for our nation, I should stayed with my family and to protect my family rather than stay away and let them worried me. I wanted to go home as soon as possible.[/face]

| [face=Arial][/face]说起学习英语，这可能需要另写一篇文章。现在这篇文章完成后，如果有人感兴趣，我可能专门写一些英语学习方面的经历。 现在长话短说，我上学时整整赶上文革十年，学了很少一点东西，过后都还给老师了。我上过山、下过乡（知青），当过工人、扛过枪，是典型的工农兵出身。***的遗憾是没有机会考大学（恢复高考后，我当兵去了，失去了考大学的机会）。看到别人进入大学，我好生羡慕，没办法，自学吧。鼓捣过文学创作，写过诗歌、小说，攻读过数学、化学，但都不成气候。正在迷茫时，有人介绍了一位姑娘，是个英语教师。我从***请了5天假，回来相亲，顺便跟她学会了国际音标，5天后我带上本字典和英语课本回了***。半年后，我探家，把课本熟练地念了一遍，这位姑娘大为惊奇，原来以为一时心血来潮，没想到坚持下来了。后来这位姑娘成了我妻子，我的英语也坚持下来。再后来我复原回来，在一个公司从秘书作起，作到副总经理。起初学英语的目标是对照字典能读懂英文资料即可，没想到要写文章或汉译英。后来因为与德国商谈合资，我不满意翻译的翻译风格，自己起草函电。硬是逼出来汉译英和用英语思考写作。再后来我争取到一个机会，到澳大利亚学习了半年，口语和听力也过了关。此间我还通过高教自学***取得汉语言文学大专***，函授取得经济管理本科***。现在写作能力和英语和是我业务上的***帮手。回想起当时在***上初学英语，多少人嘲笑我异想天开，有人问我是否想出国？在那个时代，出国就像上天一样，想都不敢想。我顶住了压力，不理会冷嘲热讽，克制了吃喝玩乐的诱惑，驱赶掉满身的疲劳，坚持下来了，现在小有所成，全在自己的毅力。近年来我先后到过美国、加拿大、澳大利亚、新加坡、马来西亚、泰国、香港、两次去过欧洲（德、法、比、荷、卢等国），也在国外培训过。当时嘲笑我的***多至今没有机会出国。我参加过多次商务谈判，包括建立合资企业和贸易关系，帮助许多单位和企业翻译过合同章程，在这些过程中，我也积累了许多法律知识和外经贸方面的专业知识。现在电脑用的也很顺手。顺便一提，我妻子现在已不教英语了，转到银行工作了。后来我妻子问我为什么学英语，我说我这个人不服输，身边人会的我一定要会，身边人不会的我也要会。一件事要么不做，做就要做好，否则怎么能对得起自己所经历的辛苦。总之要想学好一种本领，首先问问自己是否能坚持下来，如果能够，就持之以恒，一定能够成功。

Second, the company was big and it had more than 5000 workers. As other big company, it couldn’t avoid officialism. It was ineffective on many things. For example, I couldn’t believe the company had no homepage in internet, no printed product catalogue and product samples in the company. The company had not internet connection. The salesmen couldn’t use internet and email, they had to and used to these very traditional ways, telephone, fax and door to door promotion to sell their products. All the sales contracts should be examined by several departments and signed by the president finally. And all the sales costs (including telephone, fax and travel) were borne by salesmen from their commission. At that time, Australian government refused to issue visa to Chinese Citizen. I have to wait for the visa. I got approval from the president to wait for visa at home. At the end of May, 2003, I stole to return home, just like a refugee under the threat of SARS. I had nothing to do at that time. It was bored then. We couldn’t go out because I would be forced to the isolation place if someone knew my coming home. Ten days later, I decided to find something to do. I checked all my advantages and disadvantages and found export was most suitable for me. I knew English and foreign trade, I knew how to find clients by internet. Why did I try to promote some products to overseas markets? So I went to a company at my city and asked for some samples and catalogue and started to sell them at internet.
