Yu said that he likes the nickname "Iron Rooster".

I am not disgusted with the nickname "Iron Rooster", but proud of it.

Yu, a famous entrepreneur in China and the founder of New Oriental Group, is affectionately called "the miser". This nickname stems from his frugal lifestyle and shrewd business mind, which reflects his efficiency and strictness in cost control in business operations. Although Yu is rich, he is famous for his frugality, which is closely related to his experience of starting from scratch, and also reflects his cherish of resources and enthusiasm for his career.

Yu's image as an "iron rooster" does not mean his meanness, but a description of his business philosophy. He believes that enterprises should pursue efficiency maximization and cost minimization, so as to gain a firm foothold in the fierce market competition. This concept has helped New Oriental develop from a small educational institution into a giant in the domestic education industry.
