There were two fishermen who were close friends. Since they were busy in their personal work and family, they hardly spend time together. It was a Saturday and they decided to drive to a nearby pond to enjoy their day in fishing. Also, they wanted to have some feast with the fish they caught.
After they reached the pond, they sat at a distance and started hunting for fish. The first fisherman got a big and beautiful fish in a few minutes. He decided to cook the fish as a whole fish at noon. He spent some more time and caught a few more fish. He decided to make a grand meal with the fish. Also, he froze a few fish to take them back home.
It was almost more than an hour since they fished. He then went to the second fisherman and asked him if he needed any help. The second man said no. In a few minutes, the second fisherman caught a large fish. However, he put that back into the lake.
The first man was surprised at his act. He remained silent. The second man caught many big fish, but he just put back all those fish into the lake.
Very annoyed by his act, the first fisherman angrily asked him, “Are you mad? Why do you put your fish back into the water? They were beautiful and big!”
The second fisherman replied, “I know they were big, but I don't have the big pan to cook the big fish! So I'm looking for a smaller fish that fits my cooking pan! God is troubling me today.”
By hearing this, the first fisherman was surprised. He advised the second fisherman to cut the big fish into small pieces to suit in the pan and cook them properly.
Many people are just like the second fisherman. We are provided with handful of big opportunities, chances and even fortune that we many times overlook. We need to work out just the same like the big fish fit into a small pan!

Aliaba s self-service supermarket is a real hit, which shows the future of offline shopping. It allows shoppers to take what they like after scanning a OR code(扫描二维码). Without waiting in line, it feels like you are picking things from your own table at home.
In a corner at the expo, the E-take driverless car also gets visitors attention. It is orange and similar in style to a European sports car. It was developed by Zhejiang Hozon New Energy Automobile. A spokesperson for the company said the work of bringing the car to market is progressing well.
Ofo, a leading bike-sharing company based in Beijing, is present and also has been working on new technology to serve customers. Ofo, working with Huawei Technologies Co, has introduced a smart bicycle lock. It can be unlocked with a smartphonusing near-field communication technology, which is "even easier than scanning a QR code". Li Bofei, a business manager for the company said, "We are trying to make things even easier."
At the expo, We Doctor Group shows a smartphone. It has a button(按钮)on the back to make things simpler and easier for elderly smartphone users. It allows them to connect to the company's Internet hospital platform ( 平台), which was developed in late 2015.
