Dinner with EMBA classmate

Without Jasper's enthusiam, the window for Gang of 4's dinner may last longer than we expected; The last minute change of restaurant was my idea. since they want me to choose the restaurant, although I am tired of doing this, but, for the sake of everyones' stomach, I did it.

Update is the normal thing we did, Jasper recover the company's financial jeorderdy and turn to blue again, an amazing turn around; Sidney is busy in preparing his own clinic, he resigned from on Medical Center and decided to run his own hospital since June, now the clinic will open by end of the month, I proposed to do the " Lion and Dragon Dance " on the day of opening as a speical ceremory custom made for him, we talked about the project and idea, we will so happy and this is what we going to do. Peter have his philosophy of surviring and he always keep in positive attitude. it's a wonderful gathering again.

the evening session meeting with Chairman of Taiwan S. - we bring the proposal asking for additional 26 millions in acquriring 3000 more subscribers, according to S. this investment is not aim for getting more subs, but to ignite the passion and fire in the heart of every manager; this put me in a dilema, as I may be the target person S. observed , but this is another trap to keep me here without moving forward. actually, the proposal K. brought to present will never achieve such a goal, loose, no focus, slow and no action...... I am afraid even more resouce injected, the outcome will not as good as we promised. I don't really get the itimacy with bot S. and K.

In the morning, with S.'s request, I arranged them to visit First Internation Corporation ( Da Chung Group ), Chairman Chien is a senior YPOer, so he is very kind of hosting us, well, this is kind of wasting time because a courtesy visit to such an important person without bringing any result is a very high cost activity, noting pay off, it turn to be a non value added activity as well.

Wife asked me why I feeling low last night, I told her I get the feeling that to leave this company may take much effort than I can image, I should think thoughoutfully in order to make my move a smooth one.
