I say No
by 4:30 pm at Starbuck, I odered 3 latte , one for me, two for my lovely colleage, while waiting for brewing coffee, I made my first call to Wu Shung, he is not answering, so, I followed with leave message to C. Ray, to disclose my pitty for not able to serve Wu Sheng and his Group at this moment. follow with call to S. K, leave another message, I will follow to explain my sorry.I call it a day, the lunch with H. Han, I told him the entire story of the Helix development, how it begin, how it devloped and how I bail myself out of the picture, he knod while eating his roast chicken drum, ageed with my final decision and only say : will the reposnse cause Wu Shang some anger, my answar is : Yes, but in a minor impact, If I do take the assignment and againg my will in performing the duty, the thing will turn out to be very ugly, the anger may bring me to a difficult situation and the worsen case may not be reslove in any good hand.
We didn't talk much duing the lunch, I should not be his liability or responsibility, no matter how H. Han care about me or my career, there's no way I should beg for his additional help. he asked if my wife will worried about me or the finanacial situation, I say YES, and he asked what's the contingency plan in my mind. well, I am trapped and don't have a concrede plan yet, but I only tell the turth. this make me feel better, all the emprepurnore don't have the luxury to act passitimastic. I am one of them, no expecption.
share a few words with Celine this morning when finishing the board meeting with Helix at Wu Ku - the memorial building Wu Sheng build under his father's name. I can't image to be caged in this buidling and losing the freedom to breath. I share with Celine what's encountered for the past months, if this is the cruel truth of being an emprepurnor in Taiwan, then, I am not qualified, not qulified to play the game they plan, act the behavior they act, If I can't change the enviorment around, neither can adapt the culture and to dimt myself to this pool, how can I survice the competitions? I can only choose to be me. a lonely perhaps happy me.
C. Ray response and forward me the greeting from Wu shung, he accepted it and said he will call upon me latter, I should continue to call him and S. Kawang. to be polite and to minimize the bad feeling from them. this is the end of the Helix story, another experience money can't buy.
this is strange, when you act as the representative to some potential investor, you are treated in good manner, to Proton this afternoon, Mr. Hung reveal the fininal plan in detail to me. they are planning to raised 1.2 billions NT for revitalization of Proton TV in both Taiwan and US. the last session is to discolose the founder's share. 15 % goes to the managment team - 10 for himself and 5 for the rest. which means, to come up with a proposal for 1.2 billions, he can enjoy a 120 millions valuse of share. this is a good business , right ? I learn another lesson. thanks for my wife who stop me for not seeing Mr. Hung this afternoon, as I thought the game is over, why bother to waisting time for both party, if I miss this appointment, then I will not learn the lesson today, a model for me to raise fund for my music plus. yes........
