In foreign countries, serial entrepreneur "serialentrepreneur" often refers to the entrepreneur who once again even restarts after the first successful business, while in the country, successful, well-known continuous entrepreneur is rare, most of the entrepreneurs in the success, or always in charge of their "Empire" Or retire from the lake.　　The domestic most famous serial entrepreneur when several hanting, he successively (participates in) the founder Ctrip, such as home Hanting three companies listed separately in Nasdaq, and became the industry leader.　　Hanting the reason for his non-stop entrepreneurship boils down to: China is such a good market, (not entrepreneurship) is like the face of a great spring not spring outing, it is wasteful.　　The same "entrepreneurial addiction" Xu Xian said, the reason for entrepreneurship, because of "never law-abiding obedience" personality.

From the time of entering the market, all belong to forerunner.　　This means that entrepreneurs need to test and nurture the market at the same time, but also to withstand the imitation and competition of the successor. This time, Xu Xian and his partners are on the road again, and he admits that his grasp of success is "knowing that there are gold mines ahead, but not knowing exactly where they are". Perhaps, Hanting's experience will enlighten the entrepreneurs who fail repeatedly: when sinking to the bottom, don't worry about drowning, but like diving, look at the water through the bottom.
