Many foreign businesspeople have made big money in the Yiwu market. To tell the stories of their success, ZTV-WORLD has made a series titled "The Wave of International Entrepreneurship." Today we meet Mika, a Kyrgyzstan who has made a successful jewelry trade in Yiwu.

This year marks the 40th anniversary of the establishment of Yiwu City's wholesale market of small commodities. The market is ten times bigger than before with five upgrades since 1982. It has won the acclaim of the World Bank and some other United Nations organizations as the world's largest supermarket of small commodities.

When working in Zhejiang Province, General Secretary Xi Jinping made as many as 12 field investigations in Yiwu and praised the birth of the Yiwu market as a significant success of entrepreneurship.

When Mika first came to China, she was still a student. Her cousin was doing business in China and talking in Chinese then, which made her realize that Chinese is such a nice language. The idea of learning Chinese was rooted in her heart at that time. So, she enrolled in Yiwu Industrial & Commercial College, which has a great program for teaching Chinese to foreigners.

To improve her Chinese level, she went to the library to study by herself every day after class and participated in community-run public welfare classes on weekends. Because of her efforts, Mika has passed the Chinese HSK Level 5 and has also participated in various Chinese language competitions for college students.
