The words were pure Oprah, but they proved prophetic. In a matter of weeks, the youngest man in the room—a 26-year-old former national math champion named Shao Yibo—scribbled down a business proposal, sold his belongings and left for Shanghai, where he launched a Chinese version of the Internet auction giant, eBay. On the way, he stopped off for a day in Silicon Valley and persuaded investors to give him $400,000. Weeks later classmate Tan Haiying returned to Shanghai to visit friends before starting an investment-banking job in New York. She never used her ticket to the United States: Shao persuaded her to join his firm as chief operating officer. Within a year three other members of the clique—Huan Yiming, Renee Chen and Herbert Wang—also returned to launch start-up companies. And Zhang? She landed a business-development job at Rupert Murdoch’s News Corp. in Beijing. She also works overtime pursuing her Oprah dream. Once a week she hosts a popular talk show on Beijing TV that takes on such daring topics as AIDS, drug abuse and—yes—Internet dating.

The sentence underlined means that she works hard in order to be __________.

A. a talk-show host B. an artist

C. a rich business person D. a movie star
