Beginning of the end

I am not sure whether this a good luck sign for me or not. the time spending with CD help me to re-examine my own marriage, very basic things such as : Dose my wife love me? dose she have an affair? do I need to concern about she's whereabouts? the true reason why she marry me? and the final thing , will she willing to stay hungry with me if I am not able to support her living standard anymore? the 3rd party's observation can really keep me thinking. and I am kind of not in the loop of thinking about me own marriage for 2 decades. and this result to a bad financial situation, wores

It's about 10 minutes walk from hotel , many private boat , not yacht , but modern power speed boat, people in Norway love sea / water and sun I guess, how come so many boats along the harbor ? This is a newly develop area , many trendy restaurant and of course , you can't escape McDonald and tgi Frinday taking their space as well! My first impression about Norway ? They love kids, so many parent bring their small children to the harbor , to shower under the sun and eat everywhere ! I sit at Wayne Cafe for my first meal after landing , it's been 24 hours on the road and the unpleasant trip sitting next to a rude young man! I order a large latte and 2 sandwich in Norway style , it cost me almost 200 Kon, that's equal to 1000 nt , living standard is pretty high here ! Liberal is another impression I have : a mother milk her baby inside the cafe , with open breast ! A couple of gay taking their adapted child out - on mother even carry stuff doll with him! People are warm . And I enjoy walking along the harbor ! There is homeless tramp on the street with signboard , I can't read Norwegian language . I spend like 2 hours outside , bought 2 bottle of water and before going back to hotel , I was attracted by a sign : it said / the fragment heart of coffee , follow the sign , I stop by an cafe , order one latte and talking to coffee maker inside , they all follow Sri chimnoy - a spiritual master who pass away on 2007, the fate brought me to this small cafe and to learn how Sri devoted himself oneness - promo peace in his whole life and inspire people to open a cafe in Oslo ! When asked how come they speak English ? The answer is : we are foreigner ! Yes , same as I , what brought them here? A young man said" have you see a gun against my head? " I reply with : yes , lots of guns " and I point to the bools Sri published and said " the gun of peace " I am here for Oslo freedom forum , not so many locals aware ! Met Alex at the grand hotel lobby and again with some attendee , they want to know the relationship between China and Taiwan , well , I might be the only Chinese here! My voice will be easily take as a general opinion , I should be very careful and response with wisdom not emotion !

Ate McDonald , having coffee at another coffee brand and I am brave enough to buy a ticket for the movie Martha Macy may .. Hmmm , I don't know why I am here in Oslo , but since I am here , should see something , learn something and enjoy my first experience about Norway !

Blogging is the best way to keep you discipline

I do my blogging at Oslo and will sure post it after this, but I need to re-visit the days I lost in blogging and what happens in between: I felt a little bit happier when met with Lieng Ting and Owner of Wind record Yang - during our conversation over the lunch - at the quite expensive restaurant located in Yu-Kung Park, toward the end of our conversation, Yang mentioned currently 15% of the revenue Wind Music generate were from overseas and mainly in the catagrory of mind / new age music.. nevertheless, Yang told me in the year of 2012 - yes, this year, many E.T. claim their identity to people on earth and many of them using there power via music and seminar. GINO ( If my spelling is correct ) is one of them who work with Winds Music and to Yang - GINO is clearly a E.T. who can communicate with Space directly and to retrieve wisdom from the unknown to us. and by looking his appearance, you can tell the difference... and gradually, Yang point to a direction that I might by one of them - Yeah, one of the E.T. who come to earth and now to inspire people on earth, he will connect me with GINO.. and probabely the other 3 prophet so to speak who are doing the same with Winds Music - the new catagrory they have developed. I touch upon Michael Roche who did a seminar in Taiwan a few years ago, because of the book - I went for the seminar and Yang was doing the Sofi Dance before the speech -- the dance is circling around and around - non stop, Yang into this field many years ago. Yang told me Michael Roche is no longer with the beautiful lady who accompany her to the trip - this is what I am curies about - who the girl is and what role she play in Michael's picture ? Yang told me when the spiritual intention turn to business development, a lot of thing will go wrong. well, maybe this is the ' Diamond University " curse.we talk about the famous " Life Academy " and the founders. according to Yang, Life Academy use most of the music from Wind and the founder Master Tsai told him that he only take rest 2 days per year ( Chinese New Year Eve and New Year ). well, if this is the secret success formula, then I have a long way to go, really. Why this meeting make me happy? because there's a chance I am an Alien , if I am not human being, I won't follow human nature, no need to be constrain by human routine and I can be anything - this free thought free my mind. just right before I have the long conversation with Daniel Yang - the young YPOer who reach his hand for my current struggle? is it a struggle? Yesterday early morning skype with Mo is a great session, not only we cover the forum development situation, but he gave ma a light coach, on how I should react to current challenge and he advise me how Forum can apply to corporate team building, this is the weapon he lent me before my meeting with Angeli - the consultant for Ambassador Hotel Group, Mo give me an action plan- about how to use Forum marketing in China and to conduct a " Forum Train the trainer " session . Why I am kind of worries these days ? we are running out of the money , no cash on hand and no income to support our diary living, in a very serious manner, Meiling borrow 1 millions from her relatives which I should pay back, and I have no solid income to support the coming living requirement, not to mention the additional money need for my relocation to Beijing and Sound's high school tuition , I am not as weak as before , but while in Europe, the shadow is over my head, you can't really enjoy your days under the sun in Portugal and Norway. Many deals were gone, you know. Sun way just said they will postpone the consulting engagement , which I agree. Daniel is kind enough to let me know : Family security is the priority, Far East University collaboration is not where we can contribute our value, which I agree with him. Daniel and Helen keep a city secret garden at Yung Kang Park , I was invited to have coffee there with Daniel and go over what's on my mind with him. that was Tuesday, a company with humble start will begin, and yes, this is some safety net I can somehow borrow now. 6677 brothers have a clear mind about how to support Sun Way in doing biz in China, reality check and reality bites - the fact is not one can speed up the health food license from China authority, so, the meeting on 25th were simply a conversation for idea exchange and for market intellengce development. another truth. Spending time on the GMA judge panel - as the chief or spoke person for GMA, the 14 / 15 judge panel meeting were so intensive, especially on 15th, the time for announce the best few nominee, the tik tik of clock push all the judge to speed up the decision and the system wasn't quite smooth on the day. too many crash during the meeting, late for the final result and not able to deliver information to the press conference event.. I am almost blank 10 minutes before the press conference - I am not quite sure what I said on stage, what recall is : I am not shaking, I did say something about the consensus about Feng Fei Fei. and yes, Daniel saw the new fro Suzhou - I should invite Daniel to the world of Branding in coming partnership as long as he bought some good brand product these days. HK YPO retreat - support Dave and Robert is support myself, no fooling around and I am going to make it another remarkable event. C. provide her second opinion on my judgement, I appreciate her caring about me and stand for fighting for me. a rare friendship and I do appreciate it.

Transit at HK airport

I am flying to Oslo for the Oslo Freedom Forum - another unique experience I am about to explore, transit at HK airport for 6 hours is a very long break time, I managed to call Chun Hwa for Antonio's wedding song , they decided not to go with the song, it solve my problem, but I am not sure if this is a continue friendship with Chun Haw. It's been crazy schedule these days. Monita kick me out of all the business transaction I introduced in Taiwan, Tech Art Group is a minor one, only for the showroom , Far East University is a bigger impact, she took almost all the patent she saw at the University, also I know Ming Chi - Vice President of FEU won't abandon me, but as for the business development, if this is the sprout they have been waiting for 10 years, they should capture this great opportunity, I understand is and should come up with a win win strategy. Yesterday, Ambassador Hotel Facilitation and coaching project with Angeli went well, I believe this is a go ahead project, met with Rayne in regard to his YATA Transforming in 10 years, I understand his need and want about change and the developing idea for marketing, channel, brand and talent in B to C market. I share with him the not so good experience about working with YPOer, I simply address 2 things : a Tyrant who run the show and a greedy professional try to be entrepreneurial, these bad experience keep in my mind even thought I show my gratitude to them who give me the chance to grow and become stronger than before. Done deal with Kevin Lin and his new company, I bail myself out of the corporate picture, not to be seem as another greedy person take advantage of an athletic , I am not sure if he understand what I am talking about, but seems to me he is getting bigger trouble than what he can imaged. but I told KC not to spend time on this and I inform Jasmine my decision and have her to feel free about whether to join Kevin's marketing team. Jasmine is another issue I dealt the day before, finally, I told her that to release her from all the administrative work left her work for 2 projects only - Kevin Lin and Martin Tang. so, by the end of May, she may go free as before. This is what happen in Beijing this week: 1. Chun Hwa wedding project hit the rock of Antionio 2. Monita kick me out of all the relationship I build and introduce for her. 3. Lucy Wang's YPO Beijing event resource Mark Chen - who I refer may not keep his promise 4. The real estate agent call for the pre-paid which in not the way it was - they were introduce by Robert Qui 5. Randy introduce me his brother in regard to the Chinese corporation overseas development, however, again his good intention, his brother clearly told me they won't pay a dime for the local culture training. if all of the relationship built in Beijing were in the breaking up stage, what's the reason I should relocate to Beijing. just around the corner : it might be Shanghai - for Twinkle by Wenlan project / for Sun Way distribution company / for education and training / for the marketing company going with Daniel Yang . GIO - Culture Ministry announce the new Beau chief, unfortunately, it is not Mr. Chang, so, I guess Kevin Peng did nothing in this project. the so call friend who reach out his hand to support me without question is KC only. this is human nature, I am not sure what will come next , at my age now - over 50 , I am facing a lot more challenge than before, especially on the human factor side. Taking Sound to 2 movies last night : " The Avenger " and " Battleship ", I try very hard to keep myself awake - repeat Hollywood entertainment wasn't an beautiful experience " Chen Kwang Chen - the human right lawyer in China turn the world upside down these days, in the US-China foreign relationship, and I am going for another controversial Forum - the Freedom Forum in Oslo, freedom deals in many aspect, but for human right, this is the field no one will escape, I think this will be a topic in Norway in next few days. as a yellow skin Asian, I will be targeted as a Chinese and possibly been invited to response or answer what the rest of world don't really understand, however, I am not in the position to represent any party, hummm, this is wierd. Home stop over Bangkok for a free Taste of Forum session, the attendee is minor, so... how can I managed to get these people to appreciate my coaching again - for those old faces who show up to support me, what's new? what's in depth, what's the take home? May 15 is the day GIO will announce the best few on 23rd Golden Melody Awards.. another challenge ahead, see Director Chang's face, Director General Yang's face and how to response to Feng Fei Fei memorial event .... send John Pan the Sun Way coaching and management consulting quotation, I don't know whether this will scare him away, but this is the quotation and the value I know I can deliver. so, beat it.
