Huang Jian, a young man in Shenzhen, recently spent 1 million RMB on plastic surgery in South Korea. The surgeries are designed to make him look like Jack Ma, one of China's richest men and the founder of Alibaba Group.

Huang said he is a big fan of Jack Ma, and he is undergoing surgery in the hopes of meeting Ma in person. As a salesman himself, Huang hopes to one day meet Ma at Hupan College, a school that Ma and several other entrepreneurs opened for business start-ups in the city of Hangzhou.

Some netizens commented that Huang must be an excellent salesman, as spending 1 million RMB on plastic surgery proves his abilities. Others said it is crazy to go under the knife because of admiration for another person; to do so is not worth the money.
