2009年9月9日9点9分，世界第一座李阳疯狂英语“监狱”和中国最大的国际语言村正式开学了。
这一天标志着李阳疯狂英语的一次重大历史性转折！
从这一天起，我也正式宣布退休。
从1988年兰州大学的第一场演讲，到2009年9月9日，我已经在中国英语普及的战场上战斗了20年。中国有三代英语学习者深受疯狂英语的影响。在全世界的每一个角落，绝大多数讲一口流利英语的人都受到过疯狂英语的影响和洗礼。
今年我四十岁，俗话说“四十不惑”，到了这个年龄，我应该告别演讲台，把全部的精力都投入到培养接班人这件更加重要的事业上。
Concentrate all of your thoughts
on the task at hand.
The sun's rays do not burn
until brought to a focus.
集中全部的精力，
完成手边的任务。
太阳光只有在聚焦的时候才会燃烧。
我的国际退休宣言：
Ladies and gentlemen, my dear friends and devoted students
all over China:
Today I am officially proclaiming my retirement!

传给下一代疯狂英语战士的时候了。
My next step is to focus all my energy on training my successors

我下一步的计划是全力以赴培养我的接班人和精英教学队伍。
At the same time, I will be receiving students, friends and experts from all over the world
