Appreciation always

return from a short trip to Tokyo, this is a compensation tour for my wife, she had a small dream, buy one booth for herself, the dream stayed with her for decade. I finally deliver the dream in front of him, at the Gucci shop at Omedesendo; the 3 days trip was only for one purpose, to find out what Itoh-san's new company heading. and then the rest will be find the booth.

she tried on at the hotel room ( this is the smallest room she ever stayed by far, a budget hotel which can hardly make room for you to turn around )the night when I had dinner with Itoh-san, when I returned to the hotel - Room 903, she told me there's a design defeat, that make her very uncomfortable, she tried it on for hours, looking from every angle and wish to convince herself this is OK. a very picky lady, however, my good intention bring a good result, no matter she love the shoes or not, I am a decent hushand without a question.

The Felix offer venpered, I didn't hear any follow up about my perk when we had a serious discussion about how to do the restructure of the company and how to work hand in hand. if a man of his words can't bring his pormise to action, a man who lead the indusdry of the industry, then who can be trusted in Taiwan? I don't know, how I learn a great lesson too, to be the chess in a game, you simply play silence, if the player can't really push you anywhere, you just don't move, if a chess move, then this is his own fault. S.plays a bad game, but I am lucky, because on the no answer Friday evening, I make time to update my week with Mr. Han, when asked his opinion about this turn around, this is the first time I smell his seriousness, a very firm and strong will to stop me taking this risk, without resource, project, resouce and talent, Mr. Han didn't see a clue that I will make it happen.

the other learning from his is when asked what's the differece between " Restructure " and " Turn around ". H. Han reply with his wisdom : this is the same same. Turn around is the purpose, re-sturture is the means to achieve it. great mind with great heart. when update him about 88 and the potential JV with CHT, Mr. Han force me to think bigger, to stand on CHT's shoes, making more relevent JV opportunity, expecially in China.. this is something I did't covered so well.

The Rotary speech on Sat. is a good one. although I didn't prepare it well, but the overall reaction is excellent. accidentally met Major Ma when walked out house on Sat. morning, a simple and nice chat bring back his memory about me.

Lunch with Teacher Tseng follow after speech, I choose the Flesh fish restaurant, only one classmate attend - Weng Hung Hung, he looks so different now, we hav't see each other for 30 years, he is now the head of Chimei group. a very successful career , sharing with Teacher and exchange idea about everything, I am happy to keep this good routine, we feel a little bit sad that the annual reunion can't stick up as tight as possible, I told Teacher I will coordiante a grand reunion next years. I promise.

Bring Sound to the movie " the pristage " wasn't a bad idea, he is the youngest among the audience, but concentrate on the subtitle and to digest the complicate story development, he really thinks,.I am happy to bring him to a world of adult, he can understand -- especially when there's a scene related to " Affair ", he know it, surpise me>

Finishing work earlier on Monday, had an emotion to movies, aksed wife to attend - my best companion for movie, we went for 2 art / independent film - the Sliven film " Songs of the journery " ( my straight translation from the chinese tranlation " - simply yet powerful, only place aftermath can produce an indepth viewpoint in human factor. the other one " Lonlyhearts " is a good one, a true story re-arrange to a movie, taling about a series killer in the 50"s in the States, I love the charactors, " Who will die for you? " a love / possition turn to murder. a great idependent film.

for LCY proposal this morng, go for it.
