My vision

I would rather use "the goal of life" than "my vision".
I keep changing my "goal of life" during my life time.
When I was a child, I never think about that. In 1970s, 1980s's China, my goal is to enter the best university, and why? Because we vaguely believe that's the only best thing we can do.
And indeed I realized that goal by entering the top university of China.
And then I lose "goal of life". When I was in college, I am interested in all kinds of new thinking, all those exciting topic about liberal, democratic and so on so forth. And then the Tiananmen square event came.
At the time, studying oversea become very popular. We know there are much more money overseas, so we can support back to our parents.
And here we go, I went overseas.
And then green card.
In the mean time, "Startup" become popular, I tried to make a startup, but this is a big barrier, not like a elite college, not like going abort, or green card.
And now what is "my vision" or my "goal of life"?
I treasure all I have now, I want to enjoy life. That's why I join the skating club, learn golf, go ski in winter and go rafting in summer. Watch movie, watch game show and even interested in blackjack and poker.
I don't think this is wasting time, actually life is just passing time, no matter what you do, time will be gone, so enjoying life is one of the best method to pass time.
But that's not all for me.
I still have a dream to build up a business. I dream to build up a high-tech business or a real estate business. Why I want to have that big chunk of money? That comes my vision. I want to do something meanful to the world too. I am not satisfied by only enjoying life by myself. I want to setup a fund to help poor students in China.
I have another dream which is to become a writer. I think I learn a lot from my experience in China, Singapore, Japan and United States, I want to use my idea to influence my fellow Chinese. I like to see China to have a better system to help poor people. I don't want all Chinese are struggling to have their basic need met. I like to see Chinese can enjoy life in the mean time they can create. Just like American. American people are still most creative, and in the mean time they also enjoy life the most.
That's too much to say, I would rather stop here. Because that's still a dream for me, not a vision.

BUS600 my first face to face meeting in Silicon Valley

I never think about the first meeting in Silicon Valley, but when I sort through my memory, amazingly I found I still remember that meeting.
During the first week I came to work in silicon valley from Singapore, I attended our company's weekly meeting.
The company I worked was a small start-up, our product is USB chip. Even though we had less than 15 people, but we still have many different department, such as hardware, software, testing, PCB board, marketing and so on. Each group only had 2 or 3 people. I remember we all sat aroung a long table, and everybody present what they did in the last week, and what problem they have. Sometimes people are very defensive and sometime they praise each other. The person from testing group has the super-power, because he can blame which department cause the problem. Because I am a new-comer, I don't need to present, but I am very impressed by this meeting.
