The short video shows the ancient times, and the emperors cried with envy!

Chapter 777: The worst leader in the Korean country? Notorious, a great start! Song Lian sighed: He is also a poor student!

[Lee Min-bak, former president of South Korea, a controversial figure who rose from a commoner to president and was eventually jailed for corruption.]

[He started as an ordinary employee and gradually became a senior executive of Hyundai Group with his personal ability, creating an amazing Hyundai legend.]

[In 2008, he finally ascended the presidency of South Korea, becoming the first president in South Korean history who was born as an entrepreneur.]

[However, this president, who was born as a businessman, eventually fell under the temptation of money and embezzled 350 billion won in bribes.]

Barrage:

——"To be honest, it's a bit of a pity. If I had been a quiet entrepreneur, I might still be a business legend now!"

——"Another example of power corrupting people. Why are all these former presidents of South Korea like this?"

——"From a modern myth to a prisoner, even the scriptwriter wouldn't dare to write this, right?"

——"I have a question. Did he have this idea when he wanted to be president, or was he tempted after becoming president?"

——"350 billion won, which is only about 2000 million RMB when converted. Is it worth it? You're ruining your future for such a small amount of money."

——"All these former presidents of South Korea go to prison after retirement. It has become a traditional art form!"

——"I'm not whitewashing him, but he was able to climb from the grassroots to a modern executive, so he must have the ability."

……

Seeing these scenes, the ancients could not help but sigh with emotion.

I originally thought that this was another shameful prisoner, but I didn't expect that he was a business legend who built his business from scratch.

From an ordinary employee to a business tycoon.

Just looking at this point, such a history of struggle is really moving.

If it had stopped here, it might have become a good story.

If you insist on touching the supreme power, you will ultimately fall into the curse of greed.

Why is it that the drama of success and failure in this world is always so dramatic?

The ending of such characters actually proves the old saying that wealth and honor are achieved through risk.

From the business world to politics, such a transition is like dancing on the edge of a knife.

It’s a pity that in the end he failed to keep his original intention, and he was not the only one who became a prisoner.

The greater the power, the greater the temptation.

Perhaps it was destined from the beginning that things would end up like this.

……

Qin Dynasty plane.

Qin Shihuang sat upright in his seat, with a look of disdain in his eyes.

Is such a villain worthy of being the king of a country?
It's too despicable that he can bow down to such a small amount of money!

The wealth I gained when I unified the six kingdoms is far more than just this small amount.

In terms of wealth, one of my county governors is probably richer than him!
Although this person was able to climb from the grassroots to a high position, he can be considered quite capable.

But it is too stupid to be so afraid of death and send yourself to jail for a few dollars!
But on second thought, the things I did in the past, in the eyes of future generations, I am afraid that I will be regarded as a tyrant just like Li Minbo?
But I do all this for the sake of the country and the people, and he does all this just for his own selfish interests!
With such character, it’s no wonder that he ended up like this!

[In the winter of 1941, in Seongnam, Gyeonggi Province, South Korea, Lee Min-bo was born into a poor peasant family.]

[The family was extremely poor, and my father had to leave his hometown and work in Japan in order to support the family.]

[At a young age, Li Minbo could only live with his mother and five brothers and sisters in poverty.]

[In order to supplement his family income, Li Minbo, who was only 10 years old, started selling snacks and newspapers on the street. ]

[When Li Minbo was in high school, he went to school during the day and worked as a porter at the garbage dump at night, sleeping only four hours a day.]

[Even with such hardships, he still maintained excellent grades and was considered a "workaholic" by his classmates.]

[In order to raise money for college tuition, he worked as a cleaner, porter, salesman, and even as a night security guard.]

[Hard work pays off, and he was eventually admitted to Korea University in South Korea, becoming one of the very few college students from poor families at that time.]

[During college, he had to work several jobs every day, and sometimes he was so tired that he fell asleep on the table in the library. ] [In order to save transportation costs, he often walked back and forth between school and work, and his pair of sneakers were worn out until there were big holes on the soles. ]

[While his classmates were on vacation and traveling, he was working at a construction site, moving bricks. He saved money to pay for his tuition and to send back home to help with household expenses.]

[At that time, Li Minbo often only ate one meal a day, and drank tap water when he was hungry. This is how he managed to survive four years of college.]

[Who would have thought that this poor boy who went to school hungry would one day become the head of the largest business group in South Korea and even become the president? ]

After seeing these scenes, the ancients' originally contemptuous gaze towards Li Minbo gradually softened a little.

Such a difficult study experience really makes people respect it.

But why did this person go astray later?

Could it be that he suffered too much in his childhood, so he wanted to make up for it after becoming president?

This idea makes sense, but unfortunately this method of compensation is not very glorious.

It was really a joke that fate played on him.

It let him rise from poverty to the highest point, and then let him fall from the highest point to the dust.

It is ironic that one can keep his original heart when he is in poverty, but loses his way after he becomes successful.

I'm afraid this is not what the saying goes, it's easy to go from frugality to extravagance, but it's difficult to go from extravagance to frugality.

If this person could have always maintained his original spirit of hard work and progress, perhaps he would still be an admirable inspirational role model.

Unfortunately, by this point in the show, we already knew that the ending would not be perfect.

From this perspective, a person's character may be more easily preserved in difficult situations, but it is good times that test a person's heart the most.

I don’t know whether I should lament the fickleness of fate or sigh at the unpredictable human nature!

……

Northern Song Dynasty plane.

Fan Zhongyan looked at the contents on the sky curtain with a complicated expression.

For children from poor families to study is truly the most difficult thing in the world.

It is difficult to afford three meals a day, let alone manage studies. This kind of predicament really tests one's will.

Poverty is already painful enough, not to mention having to find a balance between studying and making a living. Such hardships are unimaginable for children from wealthy families!
Coming from a poor family, he should have understood the sufferings of the people and the difficulties they faced.

Ugh.

Eventually it was lost in the mud.

……

Late Yuan Dynasty and early Ming Dynasty.

Song Lian looked at the contents on the sky curtain and couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

It is most difficult for students from poor families to study.

Not only do we have to fight poverty, but we also have to face the coldness of the world.

Although people in later generations no longer need to travel thousands of miles to buy books like we did in our time, the hardships on the road to study have not changed for thousands of years!
Looking at his tattered clothes reminded me of the time when I was studying in the countryside.

I don’t know how much daily expenses I had to save just to buy a book at that time.

Although books are easy to obtain in later generations, poor students still have to go through unimaginable hardships to complete their studies!
I also studied hard in the past and I know how it feels.

I get up before dawn in the morning and go to bed late at night, with a solitary lamp as my only companion, and books as my only companion.

Although the times are different, the spirit of hard work is not far apart.

But who would have thought.

He survived all these difficult tests, but in the end, he lost his way when he achieved success.

But compared with my own, the education system of later generations is already quite fair.

As long as they are willing to work hard, children from poor families can change their destiny through studying.

If it were in our time, a child from such a family would probably not even be able to pass the imperial examination!
