My Summary

debelensosa2022 — 2022-11-03 15:52:20 UTC

There are many stories about success in China. First, Zhang Yin who moved to Hong Kong and worked there for a tranding company. The company went bankrup. Zhang started her own company in Hong Kong and she had a great opportuniyu there with scrap paper. Then she moved to the United States and worked there with paper and the company grew and they were exported from China to other places. Zhang Yin’s recycling company in California, called America Chung Nam, is now the biggest American exporter to China by volume. In 2006 she was the richest selfmade woman. It reflects the way China has established a more equal field for women. Chinas was a model empowering women. China has enjoyed a virtuous circle in which, once girls had economic value, parents invested more in them and gave them greater autonomy.
Another example of success was a girl named Hou Yifan may be the greatest talent ever in women’s chess. At the age of fourteen in 2008, she narrowly lost in the finals for the women’s world championship, and she is still improving rapidly.
In addition more examples are Azim Premji, chairman of Wipro Technologies, a leading technology company, notes that 26 percent of Wipro’s engineers are now female. Murvelene Clarke was a forty-one-year-old woman from Brooklyn who felt a vague she wants to be more civic and dedicate more of her income to charity.

A brief Summary

saminesbrallanandres — 2022-11-03 15:52:33 UTC

The Axis of Equality

Zhang Yin is a petite, ebullient Chinese woman who started her career as a
garment worker, earning $6 a month to help support her seven siblings.Working with her husband, a Taiwanese, Zhang Yin at first bought American scrap paper through intermediaries, but in 1990 she moved to Los Angeles and began to work out of her home. Her Chinese paper
manufacturer, Nine Dragons Paper, has more than five thousand employees, and
she has grand ambitions for it. “My goal is to make Nine Dragons, in three to five
years, the leader in container-boards,” she told our New York Times friend David
Barboza. “My desire has always been to be the leader in an industry.” All that said, no country has made as much progress in improving the status of women as China has. Rwanda is consciously implementing policies that empower and promote women—and, perhaps partly as a result, it is one of the fastestgrowing economies in Africa. 70 percent of Rwanda’s population was female, important economic, political, and social role—in a way that hugely benefits Rwanda as a whole. Rwanda is consciously implementing policies that empower and promote women—and, perhaps partly as a result, it is one of the fastestgrowing economies in Africa. In some respects, in everything but size, Rwanda is now the China of Africa. In the aftermath of the genocide, 70 percent of Rwanda’s population was female. Countries like Rwanda and China have shown that governments can nurture women and girls in ways that boost economic development.

Summary

gdlpsaloj — 2022-11-03 15:53:10 UTC

A woman can success with their couple's support or not and Zhang demostrated it. She looked for the way to earn money by putting and working in her own business which little by little became one of the most important company that sent paper to China (which is one of the countries with less materials to create paper). China is one of the countries where women can suffer just for the reason of being a woman, the culture there has strict standards which incentivate women to achieve the image of "the perfect woman" by hurting themselves and practicing awful traditions to look "beautiful" but also there, women have not the same rights as men, they had been treated without a value, without a name. Being a woman shouldn't be a punishment for life. On the other hand, sending part of your earnings can help one entire family to survive and have an adequate life instated of spending it on things that maybe are not necessary for that moment. There are lots of people who don't have a lot of opportunities as other ones and they depend on other generous people's contributions to start having a good life.

Summary

Karla_Chox — 2022-11-03 15:53:18 UTC

This chapter told us about a woman named Zhang Yin who became a tycoon in the paper business and founded her own company in Hong Kong. She and her husband concentrated on buying American waste paper that was valuable in China. That way there was equality between both genders to be successful.

By 2006, Zhang Yin had a net worth of $4.6 billion and topped some lists ofChina’s richest people. She was arguably the world’s richest self-made woman,although market turmoil later sent her net worth plunging and threatened heroperations.

Summary

danilobulux38 — 2022-11-03 15:53:49 UTC

Zhang Yin was a woman who started her career as garment worker. She moved to the zone of Shenzhen and there she learned how to work with paper. Then she moved to Hong Kong and she worked there for a tranding company. The company went bankrupt. Zhang started her own company in Hong Kong and she had a great opportunity there with scrap paper. She learned how to work with scrap paper. They moved to the United States and worked there with paper, first they didn't know anything but then their company grew and they were exported from China to other places. Educating and empowering girls is certainly, the right thing to do, but, most important in the eyes of many families, it is profitable! China has enjoyed a virtuous circle in which, once girls had economic value, parents invested more in them and gave them greater autonomy. In 1991, Xie Jun became the first women’s world chess champion from China, and since then two other Chinese women Zhu. Marvalene Clarke was a forty-one-year-old woman from Brooklyn who felt a vague she wants to be more civic and dedicate more of her income to charity. She he made $52,000 a year working at a bank, Murvelene was paired with Claudine Mukakarisa, a twenty-seven-year-old genocide survivor from Butare, Rwanda. Extremist Hutus had targeted her family.

This chapter talks about several things that I will mention in brief.
It starts with Zhang Yin who was a woman that started her career as garment worker. Then she moved to Hong Kong and she worked there for a tranding company. Little by little, her career grew. Then, we can find Xie Jun who became the first women’s world chess champion from China. During this chapter, we learned that educating and empowering girls is
certainly the right thing to do, but, most important in the eyes of many families, it is profitable. Several women changed their lifes during the chapter, and as always the book showed us the abilitiy women have to make significant changes.

Summary

NATURAL BREASTS'
We’ve been chronicling the world of impoverished women, but let’s break for a billionaire. China to California ports but returning mostly empty. As Chinese demand for paper soared, Zhang Yin built up her company, and in 1995 she returned to China to open a paper-making plant in the southern boomtown of Dongguan. China’s richest people.
There were some setbacks for women with the death of ideology and the rise of a market economy in the 1980s, and Chinese women still face challenges. Indeed, Chinese women often dominate household decision-making, leading to the expression ''qi guan yan or the wife rules strictly''.  And while job discrimination against women is real, it has less to do with sexism than with employers being wary of China’s generous maternity benefits.

2022-11-03 15:57:37 UTC

The main idea of the reading is that it makes us see that women as well as the main characters have the same importance as any other human being, since women also have an important role in society.

Summary

2022-11-03 16:04:36 UTC

The chapter starts with the story of a women and how she grew up with her company then we can see other stories too. All of this has relation with empowering women in economic and autonom way. Then the book states some statistics and situation in some countries, where there is not equality on the job field and how women can be the ones who are changing it. But there is a big fight with old culture beliefs and "laws".
