Ma and Zhang Minxuan（张民选，下图中间）, a professor at Shanghai Normal University, were the two Chinese honorees among 13 named on Tuesday as recipients of the organization's first Asia Game Changer Awards, which recognize those who have made a positive difference for Asia and the world.
在首届“创变者”颁奖典礼的现场，马云作为优秀代表致辞，他回顾了创立阿里巴巴的历程，并表示，“我从来没有想到我会有机会来到联合国。”马云告诉现场观众，“小就是美的，”他站在这里是代表所有的“小人物”。
"I never thought that I would have a chance in my life to be at the United Nations," Ma said, who recounted his company's rise from humble beginnings (it once took him five months, he said, to borrow 500 dollars). "Small is beautiful, small is powerful," Ma told the audience, adding that he was there to represent "all the small guys."
谈及他早年作为教师的经历时，马云说，作为教育者，他相信知识会改变人的生活。而在某种意义上，CEO在阿里巴巴也是“首席教育官”的缩写。
Drawing on his early years as a teacher, Ma said that that as an educator, "You believe knowledge will change people's lives," and explained that for him, the title CEO is an acronym for "Chief Education Officer" of his company.
发言最后，马云特别透露了他的“阿里巴巴的成功秘诀”：梦想还是要有的，万一实现了呢？
Ma's remarks included a call to independence and nonconformity.
When everyone says yes，wait for one minute. When everyone says no, wait for one minute.
Think about it carefully. If you look at the world in a different way, you might do in a different way.
In closing, Ma revealed what he called the "secret code" of Alibaba:
Keep your dream alive, because it might come true one day.
