My colleagues, Sara and Gan, recently went to a Web-related conference in Singapore. Anticipating that Google and hence Dr Lee Kai-Fu would very likely be there, they took along a couple of his books (including my own copy of 《做最好的自己》 "Be Your Personal Best") to see if they could get his autograph.
Guess what? They got it! (The Google stickers and bookmark were from Google's exhibition booth. I thought at first Dr Lee had a Santa's sack with him to hand out Google goodies wherever he went...)
They told me Dr Lee was pretty surprised to see people bringing books "all the way to Singapore???" (he thought they were from Taiwan initially) just to get his autograph. Well Dr Lee, it's so rare to find someone who combines the best of both worlds from the Western "go-getter" attitudes and Oriental "ethical values of integrity and humility", and is happy to share his views on the younger generation. After reading your book and articles, I know that I'm not "stupid and naive" to want to do things my way all the time.
