"If you give up, then you will lose," said Wang, who was once an online game addict before he went to senior high school.

"I used to play truant and took to online games when I was in primary and junior high school," he said.

Due to his poor scores in entrance examinations, Wang failed to be enrolled by a senior high school.

"If I continued to indulge in online games, my whole life would've been wasted," he said.

"I would not have been able to financially support myself, let alone my parents," said Wang.

Wang was determined to quit online games and decided to repeat a year in grade three of junior high school.

After he kicked his game addition, he began to study hard and was enrolled by Shantou Overseas Chinese Middle School the following year.

Three years later Wang was admitted to the Guangzhou University of Chinese Medicine with high scores in his gaokao, the national entrance examinations for universities and colleges.

He supported himself financially and paid tuition by doing part-time and odd jobs when he was a student.

Wang started his business in 2012 after he graduated and established his company the next year.
