A gift or another Gift

the cold call from Steven K. on Friday morning put me in a mistery, I just finished the great dry noodle with my wife at the traditonal noodle shop - located in Shao-Nan-Meng, where we enjoy it for decades - a restaurant to remark where we rescure Dicky back to 20 years ago.

Before jumping into the elavator, S. call and asked me to meet with Wu-shung in the afternoon. I managed to put it for 30 minutes, it will give me enough time when finishing my judge duty at the Financial Institution - I was invited to be the judge for an industry which I am not familar with. thanks to Luis Chen - Chairman of PTS.

Quick lunch with H. Han, I was suppose to raise the topic of convincing Mr. Hochen to join Himalaya Foundation once he release from the Chairmanship of CHT, however, Mr. Han stop my intention, he told me the postion and authority Mr. Hochen captured is much stronger than we can image, he should have opportunity other than our offering, we should not sent this message to increase his trouble, such and understand person. I told him about the no show - no call reaction from aj yesterday, he was surprised about this and slight touch upon what he know about aj - a man count the beans very carefully. well, then I should have the answer.

To my surprise is his frank opinion about Ben , this reflect to a very truth of mangement, you must establish direct relationship with a person before judge on his or her capability. Ben wasn't fit to his standard of " Quality " although they've been together for 15 years, an executive beween them do create a distance of Beauty and imagination....

The Magic Box opened by 3 pm at the unin headquarter, Wu-Shung and S. and Mr. Huang together told me a very interesting story, Wu is standing at the cross road right now, with a listing company to Hold or to Throw. from the recommendation of S. I was among all the candidate to be the person to run and take over this badly hurt listing company, the conclusion from their viewpoint were a triple win solution : find a trusthworthy person to run new business, terminate the burdon and old history, and provide me a brand new futher with a shell of listing company, no one should ignor this invitation, I had a good converston with them and discuss with my wife, I think I should take it now, a chance which totally different from aj / St. Shui's .
