1969 mid-summer, Xu Zhiwei with a passport to leave Hong Kong alone set foot on the dream trip.
he was twenty years old, just graduated from high school, he went to Los Angeles.
sky and the Gulf of California are clear, Xu Zhiwei of the world is clear - he loves his childhood girlfriend, and she preceded him to the United States, she lived in the South Bay, California.
they married. Two-year-old life is so simple, in the two-year-old academic is the love and on the scales and other heavy weights, if added to the other end of the minus end of the above, life was dumping Dou.
Xu Zhiwei two-year-old with a simple self-confidence, balance the scales of the two ends. Newlyweds, he entered the UCLA (University of California, Los Angeles) Department of Biochemistry start college courses.
parents expect him to read the law, it is Hsu's family, the first consideration of choice of occupation, Xu Zhiwei has chosen to science - he is extremely proud that he not allow anyone to manipulate the pieces of his life.
"Give me some time, I can realize the dream of all success." ┅ ┅ This is Xu Zhiwei of the declaration.
In order to take responsibility for their own choices, Xu Zhiwei refused financial support of parents, Jiali Ji of the bill, he has all returned. He would rather go to a restaurant to work weekends. He was working twenty hours a week.
Three years later, he graduated from university began studying medicine into the medical curriculum.
1970 the Canadian Heart Association established a double doctorate scholarship program to train a group of medical science researchers. The scholarship supports only one year has been a Doctor of Medicine and is pursuing a PhD in the second, Xu Zhiwei only go to medical school next year, but stand out in a number of applicants to become the first person to receive this scholarship. So he transferred to University of British Columbia studied philosophy and medicine double doctorate.
1976, he also received two doctorate of medicine and philosophy. Then he went to Toronto, Canada, engaged in clinical medicine training.
very generous to his fate, left Hong Kong for nine high school graduation, his first full realization of the dream. Scales of the two ends of his life - family and school are looking over their success: he has a virtuous wife, two great degree, the three lovely children (college, he had a daughter, into the medical first of having a son, engaged in clinical training has little daughter.)
Xu Zhiwei less than three-year-old stands in the first life on the beautiful scenery of the hills, the former Fang Qifeng stack up, he calmly away, my heart is only a proud voice: I'm coming!
1978 At the end, Toronto snow-capped. Xu Zhiwei to their set the next goal in life: money. He left Toronto with his wife and children back to Los Angeles.
Los Angeles eight years ago when he left only a second-year medical students, and now has become a return visit of the purpose of the object is Well, many doctors ask him as a partner, there are also about to retire, sell the old medical clinic should to him. Xu Zhiwei Yi Gai declined to tone inner tube unabashed self-confidence: "You do not know my people."
Long Beach, he rented a place, opened a clinic alone, his wife do care. Opening the first day, only the arrival of a patient.
Three years later, his clinics have become one of the largest in town, a dozen employees, fifty beds, and two doctors became his partner.
his side of the clinic, side indulging in drug abuse in medical research.
North America who can give a dream all he seems to have been, everything he has first-class: first-class learning, first-class career, first-class experience. However, he still did not find a think there is a dream, this is the rights and status. So he set himself again the next goal: to maximize the medical profession in North America, the power and status.
Los Angeles home to Jewish Hospital, the hospital has more than four hundred doctors, 95% of the doctors are Jews, Xu Zhiwei is the only Chinese, is the so-called "second-class citizens", he is the youngest of the hospital a doctor . Xu Zhiwei said to myself: "If you really have a skill necessary when the hospital director."
him day and night into a right and ability to compete. He was the smartest group of Jews, "these ideas are unique to Utah to"; Jews do well, he do better; Jews doing bad, he did worse. Jews for his loss. Bitterly to him a nickname: "Yellow Peril." Is this "Yellow Peril", four years later, at 37 years old, when their president. Xu Zhiwei is unprecedented and has never done a Chinese Jewish hospital director, has never been a person under 40 years old to when the President.
struggled for seventeen years in North America, Xu Zhiwei history to draw on their dream of a beautiful exclamation point.
fully realized all his dreams, was regrettably successful - he seemed to lack nothing, so the "ownership" but became a poor and tasteless.
Xu Zhiwei suddenly strayed from the bottom now own a successful trap, he thought he was invincible, but finally fell out of his own, and unable to extricate themselves.
this trap to his despair, no sense of any effort, even if he was able to climb up from trap to make him equally desperate, since it has no dreams to be found. He would like a triumph of the generals stand alone in the Chengkungling ringing salute, but after it Muran found that "no man has gone before and after but not to persons, read the world of long, sad but cried alone."
- This is what I'm looking for a dream? Xu Zhiwei disappointed about this dream.
"what to do next," Xu Zhiwei asked myself,
"Why even ask what to do next?" He answered.
"should not be a target?"
"If this target is not met, what basis will meet next?
"there must be a breakthrough."
"So what? The first takes you to the middle-aged seventeen years, with success, not satisfied; second seventeen years to take you to the end of life, then, would you still satisfied? you will not still have to ask yourself: what to do next? "
Xu Zhiwei can not find the answer.
beautiful dream in the history of the exclamation point becomes a big question mark.
