Diary of a CEO

Cloud and Moon

「Move away the cloud, you see the moon」, this is the old Chinese saying, and it reflect to my nood this afternoon; C. send me a short message , asked if we may see each other by noon; as we had a pre-scheduled meeting by 4:00 pm, I understand there's must be some scheduling change. reponse with an OK sms. I attended the regular ping pong session, win some game, take a shower and run for the meeing.

we were honestly express the concern in our heart; this is the prerequisite to be qualified as partner; she didn't want to talk about it in the begining, but I did, I don't want the ambiguity flows for too long, as I made up my mind already, there's no turning back for me, I must obsorb what in her mind before my next move; there she told me 2 gap , or maybe even more , one is the K.'s situraiton, she could not accept the investoment have to swallow the deficit , as it was not a decision jointly made together with me. then the gap about ecomony situation and social experienct, especially in running a company instead a Cafe'; I told her my feeling when hearing her uncertainty about the partership, I was frustrated , in deep depress as if I asked anyone I know to invest me, the premium can easilly multiple by 3 or 5, but I've been so fair to her , only for the par value. this is what I feeling bad. I really need to communicate with her in such a honest manner, as I don't want to lose this friend. no manner we establishing the partnership or not.

C. said this is an emotional release and sharing with me. what stand in front of her is not the future partner, but she will make up her mind with her brain, but not her heart. she will take 4 days holiday with Pony - her husband , then tell me what she think

Watching Cinderella Man tonight, both me and my wife love this film, it's touching, it's encourging, and it reflect certain level of where I am now; the brave man conquer his fear , thanks for his responsibility to the family and the value of hopeless Amercians in the Big Depression, fight on the ring is his profession, as least , he said " I know who's beating me " to compare with other unknown enemy such as hungry, jobless, he feels more comfortable. this is a dramatic build up movie, the boxing scence was shot in a very dramatic approach, I love it and concider this will be one of the big winner in coming Acdemy awards.

By 6:00 , C. send me a message mentioned how lucky we can share almost everything, and wish to keep it that way, I feel relief, as I share the same either.

The only regret for the day is the MIB seminar - Music In Business; no point to design such a seminar as there's no real value we can bring to the students at the seminar.

An idea of " 100 days Before regination- the story of a CEO ", mayby I can trade for some pocket money.
