02/17/2012

Ji immigrated to the U.S. with his parents as the Japanese invaded China on the advice of Zhou Enlai. He studied in the U.S. and returned after 1949. Ji enrolled at Tsinghua University and became an interpreter for the Chinese leadership from 1954 to 1979, and was present with Chinese leaders in their meetings with U.S. leaders. His view of his life is that he just wanted to help the two countries live in peace.

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
