"China's economy has shifted from high-speed growth into what we call the 'new normal'. This adjustment has put some pressure on the job market. However, given the number of jobs created every year, about 10 million, I think the long-term employment outlook is quite positive. With regard to college graduates, I think starting their own business is a very good thing to attempt."

“中国经济已从高速增长转入‘新常态’。这种调整对就业市场造成一定压力。但考虑到每年的新增就业岗位大约有一千万个，我认为长期就业前景还是很乐观的。对大学毕业生来说，我认为创业很值得尝试。”

"Students are allowed to suspend their courses to do business. I think that's good, but we must treat it rationally. As an angel investor, I'm invited to view graduates' startup projects every day. Speaking frankly, 95 percent of them are not innovative, just copycats, but that's normal, even in the United States. I think we should move forward by identifying really innovative projects and then supporting them with preferential policies".

现在允许学生休学创业，这是好事，但我们应该采取理性的态度。我现在搞天使投资，每天接触的大学生项目非常多，坦率地说，95%是没有创新的。但这是正常现象，就算在美国，100个公司里也没有多少公司有创新能力，其余的都是模仿拷贝。我们应该进一步挑选出真正的创新项目，用优惠政策给予支持。

"High-tech isn't the only industry in need of educated, ambitious graduates, because a host of labor-intensive industries need them too. Many graduates focus on the tech industry, but they should also consider working in the manufacturing sector because they could help to leverage the capabilities of the skilled workers."

“并不只有高科技产业才需要受过教育、有热情的毕业生，因为众多劳动密集型产业也需要他们。很多毕业生把眼光放在高科技产业，但他们也应该考虑一下制造业，因为他们可以帮助平衡技术工人的能力。”

"In recent years, I've followed the employment issues facing college graduates, and it's obvious that there is huge pressure on them. We have started many employment training courses for our students. Many other universities have launched a range of supportive polices, including interest-free loans, for students who want to start their own businesses. I think this is a very good thing, because it not only helps the students, but also reduces the pressure on the government."

“最近几年我一直关注大学生就业问题。很明显他们压力很大。我们为学生开设了很多就业培训课程，其他很多大学也推出了多种支持政策，包括为自主创业的大学生提供无息贷款等。我觉得这非常好，因为这不仅帮助了学生，也减轻了政府的压力。”
