No.One Is Good, Only One/Unique Is the Best -- The 63rd Friendly Greeting From Shirley, Sun, Nov 12, 2006

Hi,Dear Friends
 How are you? Did you have a good week? I do hope everything is well with you and had an easy weekend.
This week, I tried to caught some time to read something before I start to do the final judgment for the last researching report this year. I have decided to re-write it, for I am not satisfied with it and I also got a lesson, that I should take more time to work on the project with my colleagues together. I was too busy, but that should not be the reason as a good leader of a project.
Now, I want to read as much as possible before I start to write. I wanted to study 2 or 3 companies that are listed in the global 500, to learn their successful management experience. I do wish that I had time enough; then I would go to their branches in Shenzhen or in Hong Kong to learn something in person, as I had done in the Branch of Bloomberg and Branch of Reuters in Hong Kong in June. Anyway with my limited time this week, I did read over 300 pages of Fortune and as much as possible data via Internet, newspapers and books. I will read all of the Fortune magazines in my hands ? they have been sending their magazine of the Chinese version to me free for years and I really think it's helpful...
I do feel that our company has some unique advantages as a top company in our information for our special shareholder's background, special legal duties and special multimedia running style. The problem is that every single media and single department is running better than if all of the departments and all of the medias have a combined work together. A more united power of the company has to be collected and improved...
So, except working in the paper, I am thinking and trying to do some innovation to improve our work. This week, I have started to organize some departments to adjust a most important business process and to do something from some small place via our daily manager meeting. Next Monday, a little and simplest system will be online to offer all of the staff ? whole of the company will share the information of one of our business ? magazine order for 2007 ? every employee can fill their order work (we encourage every employee to help our magazine office to do this with some award), to publish their opinions and suggestions, to share the customers information, every department's work schedule, every employee's work record and do some simple data analyses via the system. Just starting from the least thing, to make that our so many systems are separated and belong to different departments to be connected together and to prepare and to explore a way to set up a bigger system to support and manage the whole company's business running and decision-making. I am glad that my idea and work has got the support from the general manager and the department managers.
Since 2003, I have been studying and writing something about our company's core competitions ability. My basic thought is to help the company to find a way to make our company not only to be the No.1 in the industry, but also the Only One: become a unique company via our unique theory, products, team, business model that is based on the unique multimedia system…
No.1 is good; Only One/ Unique is the best. Do you think so?

Shirley Created Art -- Chinese Xieyi--0104: Lotuses Over the Water
My new picture got 90 marks and my teacher told me that I can find a new job relying on my painting already. I can also think of becoming a professional artist now. I am happy for the comments. But, I will not give up my work in the company and to be a professional artist at this time. I will still keep learning art, music, English, China & West cultures in my free time, while I will work in the company until the day that I decide to finish my single life. So I do not want to limit myself in one field -- art, music, language, literature and culture -- when I am studying them. What I am thinking is how to develop my own advantages in different fields, to combine them together and to create a new and unique life and work style: to be the Only One with some unique way.

Shirley Sung Chinese Art Song--0020: Love to My Motherland
When I was in Europe in 2000, I was often asked: "Are you Japanese?" For then, there were few people from mainland of China to go to Europe for a vacation as an individual tourist. I was proud of that I was one of them. I was in shame and embarrassed to be considered as Japanese. I wish my motherland would be stronger with every one's hardworking. That is why, most of time, I keep working even though I was sick. I enjoy this song for its beautiful rhythm and lyrics. I do hope that my singing will be a little bit help to you to know Chinese culture and to improve your Chinese listening level.

Chinese Classical Poem 0065 & Shirley Created Music-0055: Bian Ci -- Lyrics of the Frontier
Have you been to somewhere that is far away from your hometown? This poem just expresses a missing feeling of the poet in Tang Dynasty (A.D.618 - 907) to his hometown with a very artistic style -- to compare the different landscapes in both of the local and in Changan, one is in his eyeshot, the other is in his imagination. At the same season, one is still a view as the end of the winter and the other is just like the earlier summer. As usual, I have written a piece of music to match it. I do hope that my poem comments, music and singing will be a little bit help to your Chinese learning...

Chinese in Current Affairs-0024(Sentence:168--170): How to Say "Government Encourages Foreign Companies to Move to West China"
Along with the opening of China, more and more foreign corporations have invested in China, but some 90% of foreign investment companies are located in east China. So the Chinese Government is encouraging more foreign companies to go to west China. So, today, I would like to offer you some new sentences about this topic and hope it will be a little bit help to you to learn Chinese language.
