Today, through Madison’s entrepreneurial journey, educational philosophy, and vision for the future, we delve into the mind and heart of a modern education entrepreneur.
第一章:创业的初心——跨文化带来的启迪
Chapter 1: The Entrepreneurial Spirit—Insights from Cross-Cultural Experiences
第一节:求学之路——从澳门奖学金得主到全球视野的开拓者
在正式出国留学前,Madison因卓越的学术表现荣获澳门教育暨青年局的特别奖学金,金额高达50万元。这项奖学金是澳门政府为培养杰出人才、支持优秀学生赴海外深造而设立的重要项目,旨在推动有潜力的青年迈向国际舞台。对Madison而言,这不仅是一份鼓励和荣誉,更是通往全球视野的关键起点。这段经历让她深刻体会到教育的力量,也坚定了她通过知识改变世界的信念,为她未来的事业奠定了坚实基础。
作为加州大学伯克利分校的校友,Madison在求学过程中深刻体会到了中美教育模式的差异。中国传统教育重视知识积累和系统性,而美国教育则强调批判性思维、创造力和个性化发展。置身于伯克利多元化的学术氛围中,她不仅学到了不同的学习方式,还通过与来自全球的学者和同学交流,进一步深化了对文化多样性的理解。这段经历启发她认识到教育作为文化桥梁的重要作用,也让她萌生了整合东西方教育优势的想法。
跨文化的体验让她认识到教育中的地域差异,这种文化冲击激发了她的兴趣,促使她思考东西方教育理念的异同,并将其作为未来职业生涯的重要课题,也让她看到了一个重要的教育趋势——国际化教育需求的迫切增长。
Section 1: The Academic Journey—From Macau Scholarship Recipient to Global Visionary
Before embarking on her overseas studies, Madison Zhao’s exceptional academic performance earned her the prestigious Special Scholarship from the Macau Education and Youth Bureau, totaling 500,000 MOP. This scholarship, an initiative by the Macau government to support outstanding students pursuing international education, aims to cultivate top talent and prepare them for global opportunities. For Madison, it was more than an honor; it was the pivotal starting point for broadening her horizons. This experience deeply impressed her with the transformative power of education and solidified her conviction to change the world through knowledge, laying a strong foundation for her future endeavors.
As an alumna of the University of California, Berkeley, Madison experienced firsthand the differences between Chinese and American education systems. Chinese education emphasizes knowledge accumulation and systemic learning, while American education prioritizes critical thinking, creativity, and individualized development. Immersed in Berkeley’s diverse academic environment, she not only adopted new learning methods but also engaged with scholars and peers from around the globe, enriching her understanding of cultural diversity. This exposure highlighted the role of education as a cultural bridge and inspired her vision to integrate the strengths of Eastern and Western educational philosophies.
Her cross-cultural experiences brought awareness of the geographical disparities in education. This cultural contrast sparked her curiosity and prompted her to explore the similarities and differences between Eastern and Western education models. It also revealed an urgent educational trend—the growing demand for internationalized education, which became a defining focus of her career.
第二节:见识全球化教育需求的痛点
在采访中,Madison回忆起在加州校园中接触到的国际学生,他们往往有着扎实的学术基础,但在批判性思维、独立判断和跨文化沟通方面依然存在明显的短板。“我见到过许多学术能力突出的国际学生,但在适应美国课堂的开放性讨论、展示自我观点时,常常显得有些拘谨或不自信,”Madison说道。这种观察让她认识到:尽管留学的需求不断攀升,但文化差异仍是许多学生迈向全球化视野的障碍。
她进一步指出,这不仅是个人适应的问题,更反映了不同教育体系的特点与局限性。她认为,中国的教育模式在学术知识的系统性和扎实性上有显著优势,而美国教育更强调创造力、独立思考和跨学科交流。然而,这两种模式各有不足,国际学生在跨越不同教育环境时,往往会遇到无法完全适应的困境。
这一洞察促使Madison萌生了建立一个跨文化教育平台的构想。她希望通过整合中美教育优势,为全球学生提供一个既能跨越文化界限,又能培养独立思维和软技能的学习体系。因此她19歲创立了自己的教育公司,她希望通过这个跨国教育平台,将中美教育体系的长处融合,为学生们提供更灵活、个性化的教育选择,立志以科技赋能教育,为学生提供多维度的学习支持。
Madison强调“我们希望不仅帮助学生获得学術上的成就,更要让他们学会如何用批判的眼光看待世界,如何自信地表达自己的观点。”她的教育平台不断扩展,涵盖从申请指导到学术支持的全流程服务,帮助学生在获得国际教育资源的同时,获得更清晰的职业规划与全球化的视野。
Section 2: Recognizing the Pain Points of Global Education
During an interview, Madison reflected on her observations of international students at her California campus. While many excelled academically, they often struggled with critical thinking, independent judgment, and cross-cultural communication. “I met numerous international students with strong academic foundations, yet they often appeared hesitant or unconfident when engaging in open discussions or presenting their viewpoints in class,” Madison noted. This observation made her realize that despite the increasing demand for overseas education, cultural differences remained a significant barrier to achieving a global perspective.
She further emphasized that these challenges were not merely issues of personal adjustment but also reflections of the strengths and limitations of different educational systems. Madison recognized that while Chinese education excels in fostering systematic and rigorous academic knowledge, American education places greater emphasis on creativity, independent thinking, and interdisciplinary collaboration. However, neither system is without its shortcomings, and international students often struggle to fully adapt when transitioning between these environments.
This insight led Madison to envision the creation of a cross-cultural education platform. Her goal was to integrate the strengths of Chinese and American educational models, providing global students with a system that transcends cultural boundaries while nurturing critical thinking and essential soft skills. At the age of 19, Madison founded her own education company, aiming to merge the best of both systems into a flexible, personalized learning approach. With a focus on leveraging technology to empower education, her platform provides multidimensional support for students navigating international learning environments.
Madison stated, “We aim to help students achieve academic success, but more importantly, we want them to learn how to critically examine the world and confidently express their own perspectives.” Her education platform has since expanded to offer a full range of services, from application guidance to academic support, helping students gain access to international education while fostering clear career planning and a global outlook.
By addressing the cultural gaps in education, Madison Zhao has not only created opportunities for students to excel academically but also equipped them with the tools to thrive in a globalized world. Her vision continues to evolve, shaping a future where education knows no boundaries.

第二部分:教育创业的初心与成就
Chapter 2: The Mission and Achievements of Educational Entrepreneurship
第一节:从留学支持到全方位教育科技
Madison的创业之旅起源于一个简单的信念:帮助更多学生走向全球,获得国际教育的机会。所以她创立了留洋通教育有限公司是专注于为学生提供升学培訓服务。初期,公司的业务模式主要是“一对一”辅导,为学生提供量身定制的升学方案。从选校、英語培訓,文书到签证指导,帮助数千名学生成功敲开了名校的大门,留洋通教育不仅是一个专业的申请服务平台,更是他们通向全球化视野的重要桥梁。
然而,随着市场的不断变化,Madison敏锐地察觉到单纯的留学支持已不能满足当代学生需求。她认识到,进入海外大学只是迈向未来的第一步,真正的挑战在于帮助学生在跨文化环境中适应与发展。伴随这种思考的深入,Madison决心将公司从单一的留学支持转型为一个全方位的教育科技平台。
她提出了新的公司愿景:“教育的核心不只是帮助学生进入名校,而是让他们有能力去应对未来的未知世界。”在这一理念引导下,公司业务逐渐多元化。她的团队扩展了教育服务的范围,还积极拥抱科技,将在线课程和学习平台融入其中,为学生提供远程学习的机会,打造一个“随时随地”可访问的教育支持网络。
Madison尤其重视技术与教育的深度融合,她和团队开发了一款智能学习平台,借助AI和大数据分析,为每个学生生成个性化的学习路径和发展规划。不仅如此,公司还提供从模拟面试到跨文化沟通的指导,帮助学生在学术和职业上都做好充分准备。她坚信,教育不应仅限于学术知识的传授,更应是帮助学生全面提升自我,让他们在全球化的职场中能够自信应对不同挑战。
通过这种模式的升级,留洋通教育逐渐从一家留学咨询公司发展为教育科技领域的先锋。Madison的创新理念和对市场需求的敏锐洞察,使留洋通教育不仅得以满足学生当下的需求,更引领了一种全球化的教育趋势。
Section 1: From Study Abroad Support to Ed-Tech Pioneer
Madison Zhao’s entrepreneurial journey began with a simple yet profound belief: to help more students access global opportunities and achieve international education. This vision led her to establish Liuxuewd., initially focused on providing tailored admissions training services. In its early stages, the company’s business model revolved around one-on-one mentoring, offering personalized admissions plans. From school selection and English training to application essays and visa guidance, Liuxuewd helped thousands of students gain admission to prestigious universities, acting as both a professional service platform and a bridge to global perspectives.
However, as the market evolved, Madison keenly recognized that study abroad support alone was no longer sufficient to meet the demands of modern students. She realized that gaining admission to a foreign university was just the first step—helping students adapt to and thrive in a cross-cultural environment posed a much greater challenge. With this understanding, she decided to transform her company from a single-focus study abroad service provider into a comprehensive ed-tech platform.
Madison introduced a new company vision: “The core of education is not just helping students enter top universities but equipping them with the skills to navigate an uncertain future.” Guided by this philosophy, the company expanded its scope of services and embraced technology to incorporate online courses and learning platforms. This created a “learning-anywhere” network, offering students remote access to educational resources and support.
Madison prioritized the deep integration of technology with education, leading her team to develop an intelligent learning platform powered by AI and big data. This platform generates personalized learning pathways and development plans for each student. Beyond academics, the company also provides training in mock interviews, cross-cultural communication, and professional preparation, ensuring students are well-equipped for academic and career challenges. Madison believes that education should not only impart academic knowledge but also empower students to enhance their overall capabilities, enabling them to confidently face the complexities of a globalized workforce.
Through this model upgrade, Liuxuewd Education evolved from a study abroad consulting firm to a trailblazer in the ed-tech sector. Madison’s innovative vision and keen market insight have allowed Liuxuewd Education to not only meet students’ immediate needs but also set new trends in globalized education.
第二节:科技赋能教育,开创数据驱动的学习平台
在当今数字化浪潮中,教育行业正迎来前所未有的变革,Madison始终走在这一创新前沿。采访中,她深入介绍了公司在技术创新方面的努力:如何以科技赋能教育,为学生与教师提供更高效、更精准的学习体验。为了提升学习效果,Madison的公司投入巨资开发了一项智能学习与评估工具。该工具最初只是用于管理家庭作业和课堂活动,帮助学生更有条理地完成学习任务。然而随着团队的不断迭代与改进,这一工具的功能逐渐扩展到了课程设计、个性化教学方案制定以及学术评估等关键环节。
Madison强调了数据驱动模式在教育中的重要性:“我们的目标是用技术减轻学生和教师的负担,让学习过程更加高效且个性化。”她解释说,智能平台通过收集与分析学生的学习数据,能够深入了解每位学生的学习进展、强项与薄弱点,从而为他们提供真正定制化的学习内容。无论是进阶的课程选择,还是复习策略的制定,平台都会根据学生的独特需求生成最适合的学习方案。这不仅能够帮助学生掌握学习要点,更大幅提升了学习效率,让每个学生都能以适合自己的节奏不断进步。
这一创新的学习平台不仅对学生有益,也深受教师欢迎。Madison特别提到,数据驱动的模式帮助教师更便捷地监控学生的学习效果,及时调整教学进度和方法。平台所提供的实时数据分析,让教师能够快速识别班级中哪些学生需要额外的辅导,哪些学生已经掌握了进度,可以提供更高阶的学习挑战。借助技术手段,教师不再需要花费大量时间批改作业或监控每位学生的学习情况,工作流程得到了显著优化。
Madison相信,科技正在重新定义教育的未来。她指出,数据驱动的个性化学习模式不仅提升了学生的学习效果,也显著降低了教师的负担。这种模式让教育从传统的“一刀切”逐渐转向因材施教,实现了“千人千面”的理想教学方式。Madison的公司正以这套创新工具为载体,致力于打造一个面向未来的教育生态系统,为学生和教师提供更加高效、灵活的教学体验。
Section 2: Empowering Education with Technology—Building a Data-Driven Learning Platform
In today’s digital age, the education industry is undergoing unprecedented transformation, and Madison remains at the forefront of this innovation. During interviews, she shared insights into the company’s efforts to harness technology for education, providing students and teachers with more efficient and precise learning experiences.
To enhance educational outcomes, Madison’s company invested heavily in developing an intelligent learning and assessment tool. Initially designed to manage homework and classroom activities, the tool helped students stay organized and complete tasks more effectively. Over time, the platform evolved to encompass course design, personalized learning plans, and academic assessment, becoming an indispensable part of the learning process.
Madison highlighted the importance of a data-driven approach in education: “Our goal is to reduce the burden on students and teachers, making the learning process both efficient and personalized.” By collecting and analyzing student data, the intelligent platform gains deep insights into each learner’s progress, strengths, and weaknesses, enabling it to deliver tailored learning content. From advanced course selection to customized review strategies, the platform generates individualized study plans that help students focus on key areas, improving their overall efficiency and allowing them to progress at their own pace.
This innovative platform benefits not only students but also teachers. Madison pointed out that the data-driven approach makes it easier for teachers to monitor student performance and adjust teaching methods and schedules in real time. With access to detailed analytics, educators can quickly identify which students require additional support and which are ready for more advanced challenges. By leveraging technology, teachers can save significant time on grading and monitoring, streamlining their workflows and allowing them to focus on delivering impactful instruction.
Madison strongly believes that technology is reshaping the future of education. She highlights how data-driven, personalized learning not only improves student performance but also significantly lightens the workload for teachers. By moving away from the traditional “one-size-fits-all” model, this approach creates a more tailored learning experience, bringing us closer to the ideal of meeting each student’s unique needs.
With this innovative tool at its core, Madison’s company is building an educational ecosystem for the future, providing students and teachers with more efficient, flexible, and personalized learning experiences. Through her efforts, Madison continues to lead the way in reimagining education for the digital era.
第三部分:团队与资本的双引擎驱动
Part 3: The Dual Engines of Success—Team and Capital
第一节:打造跨学科的专业团队
Madison强调,公司的成功离不开一个强大而多元的团队。在公司初创阶段,团队仅由几名教育工作者组成,而现在核心成员已扩展至100人,涵盖教育、心理学、市场营销等多个领域的专家。Madison特别注重团队成员的教育背景和行业经验,大多数员工毕业于哈佛、麻省理工、UCLA等顶尖学府。

Madison credits her company’s success to the strength and diversity of its team. What began as a small group of dedicated educators has grown into a powerhouse of over 100 professionals, with expertise spanning education, psychology, marketing, and beyond. Many team members bring academic credentials from top-tier institutions like Harvard, MIT, and UCLA, combining deep knowledge with real-world experience.
“Every person who joins our team brings fresh perspectives,” Madison explains.

With a strong team and substantial financial support, Madison continues to lead her company toward its vision of providing accessible, high-quality education to students worldwide. By leveraging interdisciplinary expertise and strategic investments, she is laying the foundation for a truly global educational ecosystem.

水饺在中国人眼中是非常重要的存在,尤其是北方人,逢年过节都要吃饺子,饺子已经被赋予了意义。 在中国众多水饺餐饮连锁企业中,有这样一个企业,它一直秉承中华美食传统,坚持健康的饮食观念,精选优质食材,为客户提供真材实料,货真价实的美味水饺。 这个企业就是喜家德,喜家德水饺的创始人高德福始终保持“一生做好一件事”的初心,他有独特的经营方式,正在带领喜家德走向更好的未来。 高德福是70后,出生在黑龙江鹤岗市,二十多岁时他在老家鹤岗的饭店里打工学艺。后来因为饭店停业,他的工作也被迫终止。 初入行业机缘巧合之下他接手了一家门店,高德福向父母借了3000元作为创业基金,有了初步的启动资金后,高德福的餐馆开业了。 年轻人是有勇气,有冲劲的,高德福说自己当年决定创业就是“敢想敢干就敢成”。 高德福资历尚浅,而且是初入行业,他经营了一段时间后,就发现当时餐饮行业涉及的种类太多了,他的门店缺乏竞争力,他意识到了这些问题,于是决定把经营方向调整一下。 2002年,高德福决定去粤菜发源地——广东找一找灵感,他去拜访了当地的老师傅,谈话过程中让高德福有了明确的想法。 回到东北后高德福决定把精力集中于做饺子上。他的想法更是很有前瞻性,他想把他的商品做大做强,想在全国各地开店。 高德福回忆当年选择时说:“我创业的经历给我最大的感悟是,有些东西是碰巧做对了,创业成功或选择方向有机缘巧合的成份。” 创办喜家德水饺2002年,高德福在黑龙江鹤岗创办了第一家喜家德水饺门店。 “喜家德”这个名字有很多含义,“喜”意思是喜庆,代表了中国传统。“家”意思是希望每一位喜家德的顾客都是爱家的人。“德”指的是百事德为先,恰好高德福的名字里也有德,就拿来用了。 自从建立喜家德这个品牌,创始人高德福就给予了很高的定位。喜家德水饺的定位是单品特色餐。 对于这个定位,高德福解释为:要做好特色,必须通过创新和差异化。这个高标准的定位体现在产品的研发上,食物的口味上,产品的健康标准上。 喜家德有五种特色水饺,分别是:虾三鲜、喜三鲜、全虾、香菇肉、西芹肉。口味还根据时节的变化而做调整,保证为顾客提供当季最新鲜的蔬菜。 喜家德的饺子皮也是一大特色,他们通常用现制的“草帽型”饺子皮,拒绝用成品饺子皮。 为了保证饺子皮的劲道和嚼劲,他们自创了“四杖出皮”技术和特制的擀面杖,这样不仅提高了擀皮的效率,而且做出来的饺子皮厚薄均匀,既保证了饺子皮的劲道,还能锁住饺子馅的美味。 中国人包的饺子大多数都是元宝形状的,喜家德却是“一字型”长条水饺,这样能让顾客判断饺子的口味,检验食材是否新鲜,还容易用筷子夹取,可谓是一大创新。 这些做法让喜家德既有了自身的特色,还与同行形成有力的竞争。 高德福的经商头脑十分厉害,他很清楚喜家德水饺的定位,面向的消费人群,以及如何赢得好的口碑。 创新变通他懂得创新,懂得变通,思想很先进。喜家德虽然主打水饺,但是店里也有各种各样的小菜,还有喜家德自制饮料,比如南瓜饮、酸梅汤、山药红枣饮品等等。 这样的搭配可以满足不同消费者的需要,让快餐、简餐也吃不那么简单。对于不同的城市,依据当地的消费水平调整价格。 喜家德还根据不同年龄段的人群推出不同口味的水饺,这样一来也吸引了更多消费者。除此之外,喜家德在食材的选用方面十分严格,确保卖给消费者的水饺一定是新鲜好吃的。 即使食材价格有时比较高,他也愿意为此买单,这样既提高了顾客的满意程度,也赢得了更好的口碑。 凭借自身的特色,喜家德的创办十分成功,之后开设的门店遍布全国各地,自2002年创立以来,全国各地的门店数量超过500家,遍布50多个城市,员工数量也有8000多人。 喜家德也成为了中国水饺领域的“领头羊”企业。 然而这两年连锁餐饮业的发展趋势不太如意,高德福又面临了一个难题,那就是变革。高德福说:“遇到挑战就要彻底地改变,不变肯定是等死。” 合伙人制于是他推出了合伙人制留住人才。喜家德的前15年并不是一帆风顺的,期间有赚有赔,2003年喜家德在哈尔滨开设门店,连续五年亏损,但是高德福并没有放弃,他带领员工一起坚持熬过了最艰难的时候,最后站稳了脚跟。 面对市场的变动,它也做了很多变革,比如开始招募合伙人,而这需要有能力的人来帮助喜家德完成冲击全国市场的任务。 喜家德遵循的358合伙人分股权制度,一直以来都被很多餐饮行业模仿学习。 目前喜家德有8000多名员工,这个机制的施行,让员工们加深了对企业的理解,增加了企业,可以让他们更好的跟随企业发展的脚步,可谓是一招制胜,带领员工跟随企业跑。 要知道,企业培养员工要付出很多成本,牺牲很多时间,如果培养的人员流失,这对企业是极其不利的,而实行新的合伙人机制有利于企业更好的发展。 跟随时代发展高德福说,一成不变的东西很容易被时代淘汰。原本拒绝做外卖的喜家德现在也加入了外卖行业,扩大了消费市场。 随着疫情的反反复复,喜家德线下门店也受到了很大的影响,在复工期间,他们一直秉持0感染、全员销售保证复工、控制现金流这三大政策,保证门店的复工复产。 考虑到员工的困难,高德福暂停了“末位淘汰”制度,保证绝不裁减员工,绝不拖欠薪水,这些举措在业界和员工之间也赢得了一波好评。 受疫情影响,喜家德的外卖量甚至超过了线下门店的顾客量,这也说明了高德福的创新改革是十分有效的。相信喜家德在高德福的带领下会越来越好。 二十多岁白手起家,在餐饮业不断闯荡,创立喜家德企业,到如今带领喜家德成为水饺领域的“领头羊”。 高德福凭借独到的眼光,紧跟市场的创新意识,合伙人制留住人才,让员工跟着企业跑的制度,成功在餐饮界闯出一片天地,他身上的许多闪光点是值得企业家们学习的。
