Yu Minhong, the founder of education company New Oriental, apologized last Sunday for controversial remarks that irritated many women.

上周日，新东方教育集团创始人俞敏洪为其激怒了许多女性的争议性言论致歉。

Yu made the apology in a posting on his Weibo account. "To explain 'how evaluation standards can determine the direction of education', I cited the example of females choosing their spouses. Regretfully, I did not express my original meaning and misled the netizens."

俞敏洪在其个人新浪微博上发布了道歉信。“为了阐述'衡量评价的方向决定了教育的方向'，我用了女人找男人的标准来做例子。遗憾的是，我没有表达好我的本意，引起了网友的误解。”

"What I wanted to say was that the level of a country's females represents the level of the country… The values of females have influence on males. If women pursue an intellectual life, men will become more intelligent; if women care only about money, men will strive to make more money and ignores the cultivation of their spirit."

“我本来想表达的真正意思是：一个国家的女性的水平就代表了国家的水平。女性的价值观会对男性产生影响。女性如果追求知性生活，男性一定会变得更智慧；女性如果眼里只有钱，男性就会拼命去挣钱，忽视了精神的修炼。”

The apology came after a controversial remark he made earlier that day drew a wave of criticism.
