Even when he went out on business trips, he would take the teaching materials and the computer with him, making full use of any spare time to study by himself via network learning, interacting with his tutors through telephone, E-mail, and QQ. During his period of study, he won the 2012 CRTVU scholarship because of his outstanding performance.
