The service hit annual revenue of more than $700 million last year, with more than 40 million daily users.

                      When Jack Ng left a rural Chinese village for the United States, he did not speak a word of English. Today, Ng leads NGMA Group, a hospitality company with five restaurants across Washington state that brought in roughly $15 million in annual revenue last year.

                      Ng grew up in a village in China that did not have running water and electricity, but when he was 12 years-old, his family immigrated to the U.S. Ultimately, they settled in a small town about an hour and a half car ride away from Seattle. His parents had secured a working visa as chefs, with an aunt and uncle co-signing the move.

                      Starting middle school in a new country, Ng was the only Asian kid in his school and spoke no English. “When I went to school, I didn’t really pay much attention to learning,” Ng tells Entrepreneur in a new interview. “Most of the time I fell asleep.”

                      He finished middle school, but never completed high school. As a teenager, he worked in his uncle’s Chinese restaurant and at a seafood steakhouse, flipping burgers and washing dishes. Before he ever owned a restaurant, Ng cycled through nearly every job in one. “I’ve done it all,” he says.
