But for him, luck has not always been with him. Fall of 2012, as a 23 years old junior in college, Dong is ready for the new semester and with a big smile to professor and classmates. At this moment, He never thought that his strong mind would be suddenly overwhelmed by a simple message. "Dear son, I have bad news for you, because of a malicious report from a business competitor, our clothing factory closed down. And we lost the case, lost a lot of money and got into debt. It took us a long time to tell you this, but now our financial strength has no way to continue to support you to go to college. It's up to you now." The smile on his face vanished in an instant, the upheaval of things was too much for him to accept. It was the first time in his life that he had missed class. He rushed out of the classroom, ran to his room and closed the door. At that moment, I felt my life was a joke, that feeling is like when you are immersed in a warm bed, suddenly woke up by a basin of cold water, I lost, he said with frustration voice. During those days, many friends who heard about his situation gave him a lot of comforts. He couldn't sleep a whole night, he was trying to make himself calm. He had a lot of thought about the future in his mind. He can't start his business plan any more that he was very sorry to Jim and Kevin for that. Also, he can't propose to Diana, because he has no more money left right now. For him now, he can't promise anything about a future life with her. Every time he thought of it, his heart ached.

Trust yourself, you are a man. I know dropping you out of past is hard, but you can hold it." He didn't say anything. He hugged her, the tears and determination of change created together at that moment.

Because of undergraduate and fewer skills, the knowledge learned from the college could not use on the real job yet. Thus, there is almost no company would like to hire him. After he knows the result, somewhat frustrated, he decided to go to the bar alone for a glass of whiskey. After a little tipsy, he told the fellow drinker sat next to by him about his experience. His description fully embodies his worry and fear of failure happened once again. "You never know what life has in store for you," Dong said. This drinker is the boss of a travel company. After hearing what had happened to him and his determination, he decided to let him work for his own company. Another upheaval in his life left him a little bit unresponsive. For a man in a tight spot, this is a ray of light. The next morning, the boss took him to the company. After a few complicated conversations with human resource, at the end of next week, he finally got a great job what is design the travel program for rich people.
