(2022甘肃玉门高二期中)He came to Britain,16,with a handful of qualifications,£5in
pocket and a burning ambition Thirty-five years later,Vijay,51,and his brother,Bhikhu,own a
drug company which does $234 million worth of business each year Together they are worth
f280 million and now they have been jointly named"Entrepreneur of the Year".
It is an inspirational tale.Yet despite their wealth and this award,Vijay remains modest about
their success He praises his mother:"She is an incredible lady.She taught us hard work,honesty
and we have based our lives on those qualities."
In 1967,Vijay kissed his mother goodbye to London to make his fortune."I had little more
than my qualifications and£5,”says Vijay.“But to go with those,I had a huge ambition to make
something of myself,he recalls Typically,Vijay looks on the bright side."When you start from
zero,things can't get any worse.You have only one way to go,and that's up-if there is a hunger in
your stomach for success."Vijay says."My brother and I were determined to better ourselves and
Britain was the land of opportunity."
By 1982,he had owned six chemist's shops,when Bhikhu,a then financial analyst,joined
him,adding some "financial discipline"to his company.Vijay says:"I simply couldn't have done
it without him."As he puts it,"Brought up under one roof,we understand one another from A to
2.”
Vijay is keen to continue repaying the country he has made his own."We hope we are model
citizens and would like to remain so,"he says."We are lucky enough to live in a country that
never stands in our way."His message for young people is to do the same:"Identify your aim.and
do not let anything discourage you from achieving that goal."
