MOST PEOPLE DON’T KNOW THIS BUT…
“SCHWEITZER ALEXANDER” IS THE HOLDING COMPANY FOR MY TOP BRANDS (MENTORBOX, FARMER’S BOX, KNOWLEDGE SOCIETY, GLOBAL LAND HOLDINGS, ETC.).
IT’S ORGANIZED LIKE WARREN BUFFET’S COMPANY: BERKSHIRE HATHAWAY.

•         7-12% GUARANTEED MONTHLY CASH-FLOW PAYOUTS
•         OWNERSHIP IN A DIVERSIFIED PORTFOLIO OF TOP BRANDS

•         UNLIMITED ACCESS TO ALL OUR BUSINESS EVENTS
•         WHATSAPP ACCESS TO ME AND MY BUSINESS PARTNER ALEX MEHR PH.D.
•         ACCESS TO OUR INVESTOR-ONLY PARTIES AND NETWORKING MEETUPS.
SO FAR, WE’VE ONLY LET IN “FRIENDS & FAMILY” THOUGH FOR THE NEXT THREE WEEKS WE’RE OPENING A ROUND FOR NEW INVESTORS.
IF THAT SOUNDS INTERESTING AND YOU’RE AN ACCREDITED INVESTOR…
YOU SHOULD JUMP ON A ZOOM CALL WITH MY BUSINESS PARTNER ALEX MEHR TO DISCUSS DETAILS:
BY THE WAY…
IF YOU’RE AN ACCREDITED INVESTOR…
THEN YOU’RE SOPHISTICATED ENOUGH TO KNOW IF YOU’RE BEING “PITCHED,” RIGHT?
RIGHT.
WHICH IS WHY I’M NOT GOING TO BEAT AROUND THE BUSH HERE.  
I KNOW YOU’RE BUSY… I’M BUSY TOO.
SO INSTEAD OF “PITCHING” YOU ON SCHWEITZER ALEXANDER…
LET’S MAKE IT SIMPLE…
IF INVESTING IN MY HOLDING COMPANY SOUNDS INTERESTING… AND YOU’RE AN ACCREDITED INVESTOR (THIS IS IMPORTANT)…
JUST JUMP ON A ZOOM CALL WITH MY BUSINESS PARTNER ALEX MEHR AND HE’LL CHAT YOU WITH ABOUT DETAILS.
LIKE I SAID… SIMPLE.
THOUGH IF YOU’RE STILL READING THIS (MEANING: YOU HAVEN’T SCHEDULED A CALL YET)…
THEN THAT MEANS ONLY ONE OF TWO THINGS…
1. EITHER YOU’RE A BIT CONSERVATIVE WITH YOUR INVESTMENTS AND THEREFORE WANT MORE DETAILS…
OR...
2. YOU’RE MORE OF A “GUT” INVESTOR THAT NEEDS MORE BACKSTORY.
BOTH ARE FINE. I UNDERSTAND.
MAYBE YOU JUST WANT MORE INFORMATION BEFORE CHATTING WITH ALEX?
FAIR ENOUGH. THEN LET’S GET GRANULAR…
LET ME TELL YOU EXACTLY WHY I CREATED SCHWEITZER ALEXANDER… AND MORE IMPORTANTLY… WHAT ARE THE ADVANTAGES OF JOINING OUR SHAREHOLDERS CLUB?
(BY THE WAY… JUST TO MAKE THIS CLEAR…
THERE’S NO GUARANTEE THAT EVEN IF YOU DO WANT TO INVEST WITH US THAT WE’LL LET YOU IN…
AND HERE’S WHY…
I THINK OF INVESTORS LIKE BUSINESS PARTNERS… AND OBVIOUSLY I’M NOT GOING TO JUST GO INTO BUSINESS WITH ANYONE.
SO TRUST ME… THAT’S NOT FALSE SCARCITY. THAT’S JUST SMART BUSINESS.
CAPITAL, REMEMBER, IS JUST A COMMODITY…
PEOPLE LIKE US DON’T REALLY NEED MORE CAPITAL.
INSTEAD… WE NEED MORE DEAL FLOW AND PARTNERSHIPS.
WHICH IS WHERE YOU COME IN…
THOUGH WE’LL GET TO THAT LATER...)
ANYWAYS…
THE REASON I CREATED SCHWEITZER ALEXANDER WITH MY BUSINESS PARTNER ALEX MEHR PHD…
(WHO, BY THE WAY, IS A NASA SCIENTIST, HAS GROSSED OVER $1 BILLION IN ONLINE SALES, AND JUST SOLD HIS LAST COMPANY FOR $255 MILLION…)
(HINT: THERE’S A REASON I PARTNERED WITH HIM…)
…THE REASON WE CREATED SCHWEITZER ALEXANDER IS BECAUSE WE WANTED TO COMBINE THE TWO MOST POWERFUL FORCES IN BUSINESS INTO ONE UNSTOPPABLE FORCE…
BECAUSE IF WE’RE HONEST…
THERE’S REALLY ONLY ONE FUNDAMENTAL QUESTION THAT INVESTORS LIKE US ASK OURSELVES…
“HOW DO I PLAY THE LONG GAME OF COMPOUND INTEREST… AND SIMULTANEOUSLY INVEST IN THE NEXT UBER?”
BECAUSE BOTH WORK BY THE WAY…
FOR EXAMPLE… IF YOU HAD INVESTED 10K IN BERKSHIRE HATHAWAY IN 1964… TODAY YOU’D HAVE OVER $240 MILLION DOLLARS.
THOUGH ALSO…
IF YOU HAD INVESTED 10K IN UBER JUST TEN YEARS AGO…? THAT’S AN EASY $100 MILLION.
WHICH IS EXACTLY WHY INVESTORS LIKE US ARE OFTEN HEDGING OUR BETS…
EVER-MANAGING RISK-REWARD...
10% HERE… 40% THERE… $500K IN THIS COMPANY… $1 MILLION IN THAT INDUSTRY… $2 MILLION IN REAL ESTATE… $750K IN THAT NEW STARTUP…
ETCETERA. ETCETERA. ETCETERA…
BASICALLY, WHAT IT COMES DOWN TO IS THAT WE WANT TO PLAY THE LONG AND THE SHORT GAME….
WE WANT SAFE RETURNS AND THE POTENTIAL FOR BIG WINS.
WHICH MAKES SENSE. IT’S HUMAN NATURE. WE WANT OUR CAKE AND EAT IT TOO.
WE ALL WANT THAT.
THOUGH IN ALL MY CAREFUL THE STUDY…
THE ONLY PERSON THAT REALLY DOES BOTH AT THE SAME TIME…?
...THAT’S OUR FRIEND WARREN BUFFET…
(WHO IS ONE OF MY “VIRTUAL” MENTORS BY THE WAY)
(I MODELED SCHWEITZER ALEXANDER AFTER BERKSHIRE HATHAWAY… ALMOST DOWN TO THE SYLLABLE)
…BECAUSE HERE’S THE THING…
THE REASON WHY BERKSHIRE HATHAWAY IS SUCH A MONSTER IS STRANGELY QUITE SIMPLE WHEN YOU BREAK IT DOWN…
WHAT EXACTLY DO THEY DO?
1. THEY INVEST IN (ALREADY HEALTHY) COMPANIES WHEN THEY’RE CHEAP...
2. THEY INVEST IN MANY OF THESE COMPANIES TO DIVERSIFY...
3. THEN THEY RIDE THE MARKET UP OVER TIME (COMPOUNDING THEIR RETURNS), THOUGH...
4. WHILE ALSO TAKING ADVANTAGE OF “BIG EXITS” AS THEY COME.
SEE…
THEY’RE “TECHNICALLY” INVESTORS… SURE.
BUT REALLY…
...THEY’RE BUSINESSMEN.
AND THAT’S THE TRICK. THAT’S THE SECRET FOR HOW TO PLAY BOTH THE SHORT “CONSERVATIVE” GAME AND THE LONG GAME AT THE SAME TIME.
IT’S SIMPLE....
INSTEAD OF INVESTING IN A STOCK (WHICH IS RISKY)… OR A FUND (WHICH HAS NO MASSIVE UPSIDE)…
…YOU INSTEAD INVEST IN A “HOLDING COMPANY” THAT DOES ALL THE WORK FOR YOU…
A FUND LIKE THIS (LIKE SCHWEITZER ALEXANDER), AS AN EXAMPLE…
THEY PICK PROVEN COMPANIES.
THEY HELP GROW THOSE COMPANIES.
THEY PAY YOU OUT INTEREST EVERY YEAR.
AND IF ONE OF THEIR COMPANIES BECOMES A UNICORN… LO AND BEHOLD…
(LIKE MENTORBOX FOR EXAMPLE)…
WELL…
AS THEY SAY… TO THE WINNER GOES THE SPOILS.
HENCE… SCHWEITZER ALEXANDER’S INVESTMENT PORTFOLIO…
HERE’S HOW IT WORKS…
STEP ONE: ALEX AND I BUILD BUSINESSES USING OUR OWN CAPITAL TO MAKE SURE WE HAVE PROPER PRODUCT MARKET FIT… (READ: LESS RISK)...
OR WE PURCHASE HEALTHY COMPANIES THAT ARE UNDERVALUED… (ALSO LESS RISK)...
THEN STEP TWO:
WE USE OUR BUSINESS ACUMEN TO…
(AND REMEMBER…BY THE WAY...
WE’VE ALREADY PROFITABLY SPENT OVER $500 MILLION IN DIRECT RESPONSE MARKETING AND…
GARNERED OVER $1 BILLION IN SALES AND…
HAVE MORE THAN 12 MILLION SOCIAL MEDIA FOLLOWERS AND…
WE HAVE DIRECT CONNECTIONS TO THE SILICON VALLEY PIPELINE OF HOT STARTUPS.)
SO…
… AFTER WE DECIDE TO SCALE AN ALREADY SUCCESSFUL BUSINESS…
WE STEP TWO: USE OUR BUSINESS ACUMEN AND ADDITIONAL CAPITAL TO BUILD MASSIVE BRANDS.
IT’S ACTUALLY REALLY AN EASY ONE-TWO PROCESS WHEN YOU THINK ABOUT IT THAT WAY.
AND WE ALREADY HAVE EASY PROOF OF CONCEPT...
IN ONLY THE PAST FEW YEARS, FOR EXAMPLE, WE GREW A FEW MASSIVE BRANDS AND ALREADY PUT THEM UNDER THE SCHWEITZER ALEXANDER BANNER…
FOR THE 10 TRILLION-DOLLAR EDUCATION MARKET…
MENTORBOX ALREADY HAS 75,000 PAYING SUBSCRIBERS… AND KNOWLEDGE SOCIETY GOT TO 7-FIGURES IN JUST A FEW MONTHS.
FOR THE 5 TRILLION-DOLLAR FOOD MARKET…
WE HAVE GRASSLAND FARMS, WHERE WE’VE CREATED A BEEF JERKY COMPANY… AND FARMER’S BOX (A “FARMER’S MARKET DELIVERED TO YOUR DOOR”) WHICH SOLD OUT IN JUST A FEW WEEKS…
THEN FOR FASHION…. WE HAVE OUR OWN SUCCESSFUL CLOTHING LINE: “A BETTER MAN.”
WE ALSO INVEST IN REAL ESTATE UNDER GLOBAL LAND HOLDINGS (GLH).
WE HAVE A FINTECH PLAY WE’RE WORKING ON (“FOUNDERSBANK”)…
...AND OBVIOUSLY MANY MORE.
THESE ARE ALREADY OR WILL BE UNDER SCHWEITZER ALEXANDER…
...AND MORE WILL BE ADDED EVERY SINGLE YEAR.
WHICH BEGS THE QUESTION…
WILL EVERY SINGLE ONE BE THE NEXT UNICORN?
NO. OF COURSE NOT.
BUT ONE OF THEM PROBABLY WILL…
AND THAT’S THE BEAUTY OF THIS MODEL…
REMEMBER WHAT SHAREHOLDERS GET…?
SHAREHOLDERS GET:
•         7-12% GUARANTEED MONTHLY CASH-FLOW PAYOUTS
•         OWNERSHIP IN A DIVERSIFIED PORTFOLIO OF TOP BRANDS
•         SIGN UP CASH BONUSES
•         UNLIMITED ACCESS TO ALL OUR BUSINESS EVENTS*
•         WHATSAPP ACCESS TO ME AND MY BUSINESS PARTNER ALEX MEHR PH.D.
•         ACCESS TO OUR INVESTOR-ONLY PARTIES AND NETWORKING MEETUPS.
WITH SCHWEITZER ALEXANDER WE’LL PAY YOU OUT A MONTHLY INTEREST PAYMENT…
WHICH IS THE CONSERVATIVE LONG PLAY…
THOUGH YOU ARE ALSO ABLE TO CONVERT SOME OF YOUR INVESTMENT INTO OWNERSHIP SHARES…
WHICH IS THEN DIVERSIFIED… INTO HEALTHY BUSINESSES…
ALL OF WHICH HAVE THE POTENTIAL TO BE THE NEXT UNICORN.
HENCE… YOU’RE ABLE TO PLAY THE LONG AND SHORT GAME AT THE SAME TIME.
WHICH… I KNOW WHAT YOU’RE THINKING…
THIS ALL BEGS THE QUESTION…
WHY DO ALEX AND I NEED YOU THEN?
… GOOD QUESTION. …
THE TRUTH IS THAT WE DON’T.
WE DON’T TECHNICALLY “NEED” MORE CAPITAL.
ALEX AND I COULD HAVE RETIRED ALREADY A LONG TIME AGO.
YOU’RE PROBABLY IN THE SAME BOAT....
BUT JUST LIKE WARREN BUFFET DOESN’T “NEED” TO READ 500 PAGES A DAY TO FIND THE NEXT COMPANY HE WANTS TO PURCHASE BECAUSE HE NEEDS THE MONEY...
NEITHER DO WE DO IT FOR THE MONEY…
TRUTH IS THAT WE JUST HONESTLY ENJOY BUSINESS.
WE THINK IT’S GOOD FOR THE WORLD.
WE LIKE GIVING MORE AND MORE VALUE TO MORE AND MORE PEOPLE.
WE LIKE THE PSYCHOLOGY OF EXCHANGE.
PLUS IT MAKES THE WORLD A BETTER PLACE. TRULY IT DOES.
AND SURE, IF WE HAVE NICE LIFESTYLES BECAUSE OF IT…? ALL THE BETTER.
BUT THAT’S NOT THE MOTIVATION.
THE MOTIVATION FOR STARTING SCHWEITZER ALEXANDER WAS SIMPLE…
WE WANT TO TEST A DIVERSIFIED PORTFOLIO OF INTERESTING COMPANIES QUICKLY… SCALE THE ONES THAT HAVE MASSIVE UPSIDE… AND MEET A TEAM OF AMAZING ENTREPRENEURS ALONG THE WAY.
WHICH… THEN… AGAIN…
STILL…
WHERE DO YOU COME IN?
WELL… LOGICALLY…
WITH A MORE DIVERSE GROUP OF INVESTORS IN OUR CLUB…
1. WE’LL SEE MORE GREAT DEALS
AND…
2. WE’LL HAVE MORE CAPITAL TO DEPLOY WHEN AN OPPORTUNITY IS THERE
BUT ALSO EMOTIONALLY…
THE MORE INVESTORS WE HAVE….
3. THE MORE BADASS ENTREPRENEURS WE’LL GET TO MEET, AND...
4. THE MORE FUN WE’LL HAVE.
THAT’S IMPORTANT TOO.
AND OH-BY-THE-WAY…
WE CAN ALSO HELP PEOPLE LIKE YOU MORE EFFECTIVELY POSITION THE CAPITAL YOU HAVE LYING AROUND…!!!
LIKE I SAID… IT’S ALL PRETTY STRAIGHTFORWARD…
…TRYING TO DO GOOD THINGS FOR GOOD PEOPLE.
ANYWAYS…
IF YOU’RE STILL WITH ME AT THIS POINT…
...THEN IT PROBABLY MAKES SENSE FOR YOU TO JUST JUMP ON A CALL WITH ALEX AND CHECK OUT MORE DETAILS.
HE CAN ANSWER YOUR QUESTIONS IF YOU HAVE ANY LEFT.
AND BY THE WAY, OF COURSE YOU’LL DO ALL YOUR DUE DILIGENCE LATER AND YES, ALSO OF COURSE WE HAVE OUR OWN VETTING PROCESS…
SO IT’S NOT NECESSARILY GUARANTEED THAT WE’LL BE A GOOD FIT FOR EACH OTHER…
BUT IF YOU’RE STILL READING THIS(!) AND YOU’RE AN ACCREDITED INVESTOR…
THERE’S ZERO DOWNSIDE FOR CHATTING WITH ALEX…
SO GO AHEAD AND SCHEDULE A CALL WITH ALEX AND MAYBE I’LL SEE YOU AT OUR NEXT INVESTOR DINNER…?

[Translated] The Current Truth of Mainland China in My Viewpoint
The Current Truth of Mainland China in My Viewpoint - Maybe Worse than Your Thought Please help to spread around. Please help to spread around. Due to my current situation, I may delete the original article any time. I am a college dropout from Mainland China. When I was a kid, I was bullied frequently due to my small physical size. As a result, I became sympathetic to the weak ones. Every time, when I see that the majority finds reasons to destroy minorities’s dignity, I always stand by with the weak sides. I was a loner when I grew up without many friends. This gave me a lot of time to read and think. One day, when I was in the college, I read Yang Xianhui and George Orwell’s books. My heart ached with anger and sorrow and fell into deep fears. The contents of those books had happened and would continue happening. I fear that they will further sensor and monitor into people’s thoughts and minds. If there is only one voice allowed, that voice basically only tells lies. Therefore, I always keep my mind sober and rational as long as there are sensors and monitors around. I feel sorry for my parents because I am from a poor family in a village. I was accepted into a prestigious university but dropped out. I have not yet told my family and do not know what to do. I plan to study one more year and retake the college entrance exam. I hope to go to abroad in the future. I have limited writing abilities, and my writing style is vulgar. I only try to justify what happen. Let me talk about the current situation in Mainland. 1: Indecency from diplomacy to the public broadcasting and from the top to the bottom. The statements of spokesperson from Foreign Ministry during the last Chairman’s regime were standardized and repetitive but still sounded diplomatic. During the current regime, the diplomatic style is changed to rude and unreasonable, even bitchy. The new style is appreciated and encouraged within the internal management, and the ones with the most fierce remarks were promoted the quickest. In general, the statements, which were recommended by the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) controlled media and were praised by the Little PInky [1], were indecent, at least, very unprofessional. For instance, the spokesperson called out certain countries, "troublemaker" and openly stated "live with it." They often rephrased their behaviors as "angrily rebuke" and "diss." They praised bitches, scoundrels, and racketeers as their ideological idols in their massive propaganda statements. If you randomly visited any website from the Mainland, the first thing you saw would be: "Dear Chairman Xi Cares the Poor." The next headlines would be: "Fai Ching [2] from Hong Kong Blocked Tourists Going Back Home", "The Americans Scare Pissing Themselves and Beg to Stop Trade War", etc.. I was too lazy to make screenshots. Believe it or not. Just go ahead to look around those popular Simplified Chinese websites, such as Hao123.com, NetEase, etc. These information was all real. They turned the patriotism into indecency. No wonder there is a saying, "Patriotism is the last shelter for hooligans." For instance, a bandit raped, stole, robbed, and committed all manners of crimes in a village. When the Japanese came, the bandit shouted out, "I am a Chinese man!" He fought the Japanese in the name of patriotism. Then, all his crimes were forgiven, and he became a hero instead of a villain, whom the villagers used to hate.[3] Nowadays, I do not know how many people like this bandit are under the disguise of patriotism. Those who shouted online, "Beat U.S. and kick Japan," may actually be loan sharks and pimps in real life. I met several of them like this in real life, including corrupted governmental officials. Those corrupted governmental officials made the most radical comments in WeChat Moments.[4] Not only the people are indencent, but also their behaviors are immoral. They believe that the patriotism has the highest moral value. If that is so, why do they act like extremely vicious mobs? They assaulted, smashed, robbed, killed, and eventually harmed their fellow citizens. Patriotism should be influencing others by persuasion, not threats. They used very malicious languages and behaviors to attack others, including smashing a Japanese brand car owner's head by using a metal U-shaped lock. Does anyone actually believe that the car owner would become more patriotic after receiving this evil attack? Besides, the car owner was labelled "unpatriotic" by them! A few days ago, I watched a video featuring some Northeasterners cursed Hong Kongers using foul languages and dirty words acted like a mob of hooligans, and they shouted, "You, Motherfucker, Hong Kong belongs to China." They also threatened to beat up some people. Those Northeasterners did not even understand why Hong Kongers protested. Nobody will be sincerely convinced by being attacked by foul languages and threats. The Mainland's internet was full of people acted like members of Boxer Rebellion [5], and those people claimed to wipe out whoever advocates Hong Kong independence. Those wolf warriors [6] in the name of patriotism from the Mainland to overseas behaved violently and filthily. Who actually disgraced Chinese people? One of the most notorious wolf warriors was the one, who a CCTV journalist, Kong LinLin, committed assault in the UK Conservative Party Convention 2018. Apparently, some other aggressive international students from Mainland acted like Kong and used some similar behaviors to grab people's attention online in the name of patriotism in order to get a good job or get promotions when they go back to the Mainland. 2. CCP kidnaps China CCP claims the ownership of everything in China. Anyone attacking the government is labeled as unpatriotic. Anyone disagreeing with Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) is labeled as ass-licking foreign dog. Anyone believing that stinky tofu is unhealthy is labeled as feeling superior of eating foreign junk fast food. Anybody, who is detested by CCP, will be called out by CCP: "Disgrace to China and Chinese people." CCP has perfected their ways of doing this method lately. In the past year, many people, groups, organizations have been called out. They created a false sense, which everyone outside of the Mainland was alienating and attacking China and its people, and they did nothing else for China and its people for an entire year. Nobody can even clarify anything was untrue on the news or in the social media or other discussion forum online. People are unable to post any opposition opnion online without being attacked by the little pinky or the wolf warriors. Even if the opposite opinion was not posted on the front page, they will still manage to dig out the post and curse the commentator. There will be at least a few dozens of people attacking the commentator, and the commentator's message box will be full of verbal attacks as well. As a result, the post will be censored and deleted by the website. This kind of scenario happens more on Bilibili. In the past few decades, CCP successfully established a bottom line for every Chinese as solely and wholly maintaining the nation's sovereignty. However, hatefully, CCP specifically mixed up the concepts of CCP or party, nation, and government. Therefore, anybody, who is against the CCP's interests, will be labeled as the advocates for independence of Hong Kong, Taiwan, Uygur region, etc. Let me give you an example why the CCP is wrong to mix up the concepts. Kuo Ming Tang (KMT) used to say to take back the Mainland. What if we reverse the CCP's notorious slogan, "Take back Taiwan"? Let KMT have the Mainland. I don't think they will reject the offer. Hence, in this scenario, Taiwan and the Mainland were still the same sovereign nation. So the problem is not about maintaining a nation's sovereignty rather than who rules the nation. As I stated in my previous texts, when maintaining the nation's sovereignty becomes everybody's bottom line, Chinese will react with rage towards anybody, who is labelled as separatist. This method is time-tested and proved useful, and the CCP keeps reusing over and over. 3. About 70 to 80 millions employees under the government's payroll. [8] The regime basically ties every citizen's livelihood into the same boat as theirs. More and more people take the governmental employee entrance exam every year. It doesn't mean that government employees have bigger paychecks than the rest of the society, but in fact, the government employees have good benefits, including paid maternity leave. [9] A benefit like this is very rare in the private sectors. Plus, working for the government is less stressful compared to working in the private sectors. The largest employer in the Mainland is the CCP and its controlled government. The reason for the CCP and the government to be the best employer in China is that they controlled every resource in the society. The CCP's controls are everything, but the people cannot feel the CCP's existence in their daily life, because the CCP is everywhere like the air which people breath in and they integrate into every corner in the society and people's daily life. People use to surround by air, so they will not pay attention to the air. When people walk on a street and see a wall, but people do not question why the wall is there, because they unconsciously recognize the existence of the wall by default. For instance, one of my relatives asked me, "Have you joined the party?" I replied, "Which party?" Then, he stared at me as I was a retarded person. On July 1, someone reminded me that was the Party's Day today. I asked, "Which party?" The person replied, "Of course, the CCP!" I responded, "Why wouldn't people and the media say the holiday is the CCP's Day instead of the Party's Day?" This is exactly like I stated previously. People have unconsciously recognized solely, perpetual, and lawful existence of the CCP by default. This is not based on fear, because people are used to it. People do not question the CCP nor sense anything wrong with it. People do not aware its integration into their daily life. Its supervision and control are like the gravity. It is always there and unsurprising. This is the reality of the mindset of the majority of the Mainlanders. 4. Most of the contents of the CCP come from the mid-age people between 50 and 60. Most of the young people are the CCP's defenders. I am merely stating my observation and not encouraging people to believe if there is any good in the CCP. The mid-age people were harmed the most by the CCP, so many of them were actually anti-communists. However, they barely express their viewpoint online and rarely pass their political view to the next generation. Next, I am going to write about the differences in the political views in the younger generations. For those were born in the 80s and dislike the CCP, they had emigrated to other countries or regions already. For those staying behind, they have a family and own properties (condos) in the Mainland. They are very cautious and never reveal their true political views. They sometimes take things as they are and immerse themselves into the "wisdom" of only serving self-interest. Moreover, they will not be the main force standing with the pro-democracy movement because they are no longer young. Those CCP's supporters and the CCP do not realize that the 80s group disgruntles the CCP the most among all other age groups. The millennials have the most little pinky within this age group. I do not know how many people in this age group actually read the news or receive information outside of CCP controlled media or social media. I feel pessimistic about what I witnessed. For instance, My high school classmate, Rhee, was from a prominent family. His father was a deputy director of Bureau of Land and Resources (BLR), and his mother was also in the leadership of the government. His family accumulates their wealth not merely based on his parents's salaries. His family bought 2 additional properties in Shanghai, where they did not reside. When Rhee studied abroad, he called other international students from Hong Kong names. He also tore up Hong Konger's posters on the pro-democracy movement. Moreover, he obstructed the Hong Konger's peaceful protests and demonstrations. I do not believe that those were the correct way to express one's disagreement. I believe that people persuade the opposite party by reasoning and logics. People should always defend for everyone's freedom of speech, even if they do not agree with that person. People should not simply silence the voice from an opposition party. Rhee sent the video quarrelling with the Hong Kongers to a group chat with his high school classmates. Other people in the group chat clapped and cheered praising him as "a real man" and "a good patriotic young man". They also scolded the Hong Kongers severely. Nobody ever thought about how Rhee's parents were able to pay his tuition when he studied abroad. Nobody questioned whose right was infringed when Rhee's father signed over some rights of some public resources at work. Nobody thought about this, but jubilated and complimented Rhee. He did not tear up for filming video and seeking attention, but he really believed that his actions were patriotic. The millennials aboard are like Rhee anti-democracy and support building firewall on the internet to decouple the Simplified Chinese to the rest of the world. A few days ago, I went to a prestigious university in Shanghai to look for a former classmate of mine. I overheard something when I was eating with my classmate. It was a conversation among a few fine-looking students regarding the current situation in Hong Kong. I heard clearly from one of the students, "This was all the US stirred up the fire. Those Hong Kong separists should be executed." I was too angry to eat. I was in rage, but felt pessimistic because those students were from top-ranking universities in the Mainland. They may study abroad one day. Why would they think like this? I did not understand. 5. Little pinky is disgusted. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ [1] Little Pinky, a group of people [2] Fai Ching, the teenagers or young adults, who are useless and have something wrong in their mind behaving aggressively. Also, means negatively as a combination of jerk, asshole, and idiot. [3] Author's reference was related to Japan's invasion to China. For more information, you may find on other scholar's historical articles or archvies. [4] WeChat Moments: WeChat is the most popular social networking app among Chinese speaking people. WeChat Moment is very similar to Facebook or Instagram, which those two are banned in Mainland China. For more information, you may find the information online. The Translator of this article, Jewel, does not recommend to install this app to your device or link or cellphone number to it. [5] Boxer Rebellion: [6] Wolf Warriors: [7] Bilibili: [8] 4% - 5% of the population based on the official data, which could be false. [9] Mantatory paid maternity leave: ================= To Be Continued

In conversation with Mr. Muhammad Ali Atara - CEO Dinner in the Sky Pakistan
How would you describe yourself in few words? I would describe myself as one of the Young & Ambitious Entrepreneur & a Pakistani National. I Graduated From UK in the Y/o 2011 as a Civil & Structural Engineer, and straight away I returned to my Homeland during that same year. In 2012, I joined M/s Al-Munaf Corporation (AMC) as one of the Acting Director, and till today I give 75% of my everyday time & energy to AMC, as this Business is truly my main Bread & Butter. I am someone who is honest, caring, hardworking, ambitious, patriotic, and just a little intelligent that’s all. I have a great sense of humor, and in reality I am an easy person who doesn’t easily give up. I am an optimist rather than pessimist. I also enjoy travelling, watching movies, going out for dinner, having great intellectual conversations and always try to search for new ideas and inventions.
“My life motto is; Do my best, so that I can’t blame myself for anything.” 
Give us a brief introduction about Dinner in the Sky and where did it originate from? Dinner in the Sky, a concept of dining adventure in the sky is chiefly the establishment of the world’s best communication agency “HakunaMatata”, Belgium. Dinner in the Sky is a Belgium based novelty restaurant service which uses a crane to hoist the diners table lifting up 22 persons at a time, on a height of about 20 feet above into the sky.
Our goal behind this flying dining concept is to provide our clients and customers a moment of life time with your favorite ones that are also up in the sky , this is a source of happiness for today’s generation. They lift up the flying table in the sky via crane system and offer a spring of amusement for the enjoyers around the world.
Dinner in the Sky started their journey of banqueting in the sky with the collaboration of 22 newly developed restaurants in Europe. Dinner in the Sky has covered several of events including Sports events, Brand showcasing, Wedding & B2B meetups and the list goes on.
The restaurant works on the formula of happiness and entertainment with scrumptious food and a perfect ambience. Dinner in the Sky is currently running its operations in 63 countries including Belgium, Holland, Germany, Austria, where the 64th country is Pakistan and 65th country being Sri Lanka. Furthermore, sole ownership of 100% rights belongs to Mr. Ali Atara for both of these Asian Countries.
“Hence, dream don’t work unless you do”
How did you come up with the idea of bringing this venture to Pakistan?
“This is how this Story begins.”
I expect that almost all of us would admit that life’s real education happens outside the classroom, and travelling would be one of the best ways to learn things and groom ourselves practically. I experienced this exclusive invention during my last year holiday trip in the month of April-2017 and trust me it was and still is the best meal of my life so far. I wish to have this meal soon once again.
I discovered the concept of ‘Dinner in the Sky’ back in May 2017. Dubai was the place where I actually experienced this first ever exclusive meal of my life; I decided to find the creator of this concept. Hence, it took me almost 3 months to find the parent company based in Belgium & finally ended up in signing the deal with them, and be the sole owner of Dinner in the Sky, for entire Pakistan. There were around 83 candidates, who had already submitted their bids for Pakistan, but my honesty & my personality actually made me win this contract and today I can say that I am the proud owner having the sole rights to start up this business and that goes for both Asian Countries, i.e. Pakistan & Srilanka.
“Ideas pull the trigger, but instinct loads the gun.”
What kind of response do you expect from the launch of ‘Dinner in the Sky”?
As we all know, the people of Karachi are fun & food loving, just imagine a great meal with your loved ones up in the sky with stars, pure wind, amazing view and calm environment; it’s a life time experience.
In social media people can’t stop sharing the idea of “Dinner in the Sky, Pakistan” with their friends & family and everyone is super excited, waiting for the launch of this venture. This project will definitely Rock!
Furthermore, I would really apologize to all of our Dinner in The Sky (DITS) lovers, for the delay in the announcement of this launch, as we are still working hard, to finalize the best possible venue in Karachi. We want all of our customers to have the best experience, so that every single penny spent on their meal turns out to be worth it.
By the Grace of God, we already have 75000 likes on our Facebook page as of today and these are genuine fans of Dinner in the Sky. We did not have to false advertise for this prestigious project.
“Don’t find customers for your products, find product for your customer”
How safe is Dinner in the Sky, do you have certain security measures/ certifications?
Dinner in the Sky is a product developed by E.I.T.S BvBa based two varying concepts; exclusivity and safety.
Dinner in the Sky is designed according to German norm DIN 4112, flying structures – guidelines for the calculation and execution, with all drawings, calculations and simulations tested by TUV Rheinland. The platforms are built in Belgium and are regularly checked and maintained. Every aspect of the concept, from the seat belts to the type of crane used, has been scrutinized and carefully considered to ensure maximum safety for our clients and employees.
While seated guests wear safety belts, standing presenter and the whole crew is secured by safety harnesses all the time during the flight. A safety supervisor will brief clients about all safety regulations prior to the flight and will be in constant communication with the crane operator and ground crew, so that he has a complete picture of the situation during the operation. The company gives painstaking attention to every detail in order to maximize security and ensure guests always feel safe.
Safety being our top most priority, is one of the reasons why Dinner in the Sky is now operated in over 63 countries and is able to gain official authorization from the toughest Quality concern nations including US, Canada, Australia, South-Africa and Germany.
What are your future prospects?
Let me start by saying that neither ‘Money’ nor ‘Fame’ is our primary concern. A business does require finances; however, if you only focus on monetary benefits it is likely that your venture won’t last.
“You can’t connect the dots looking forward; you can only connect them looking backwards. So you have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future.”
Your consistence to believe in achieving something is what drives every morning and be proud about it. Having pure motives in your life and career, gives you both peace and purpose, which are invaluable things. Yes, me and my team are now working on some new projects and of course they all are exclusive.
How do you balance your professional & personal life?
“It’s all about quality of life and finding a happy balance between work, friends and family.”
I feel blessed that I know how to take care of relationships whether they are my family, my friends, and my work team or even when it comes to strangers.
You can say, I have an attitude but not ego; I am ready to bowing down where I think it is required.
Nowadays, it is absolutely indispensable for professionals to maintain a proper balance between work and life, everyone should always keep in mind that you should “Work to live and certainly not live to work”.
The most important thing that you should take care of is the time-management factor. If you are able to manage your time from the very first day between your work & family, you can easily turn it into a habit and would not have to face any problem. Finishing the assigned task on time helps you spend more time with your family.
Another important thing that everyone should keep in mind is avoiding taking your office work/task to home; this will spoil both your professional & personal life and (this is my own personal experience.)
When and where is the DITS expected to launch?
We are still working hard, to finalize the best possible venue + permission for operations in Karachi.
Hopefully, the launching date will be announced very soon through our website. A tentative date that I can myself assume would be 23rd March, 2019. So please stay tuned with us for all further updates.
Any message for your readers?
If you are going to be a great entrepreneur, you will have to think outside the box and take some risks that most people would not consider taking.          You will also have to get used to the idea that not everyone will support what you are doing. All leaders are innovators and face discouragement and criticism. The best way to combat against pessimists, who doubt on your abilities, is to have a solid circle of supportive people in your life. Identify these people and use them as a rock to anchor your ambitions when you hit a storm of depreciation.
“Every great dream begins with a dreamer. Always remember, you have with in you the strength, the patience and the passion to reach for the stars to change the world.”

I have, for years now, harboured a sick kind of fantasy. It’s that of the Peepul running their football club. Tattooed, beer-gutted, shaved headed yahoos, manning the soft seats in the director’s box and surveying the majesty of Ibrox. Their Ibrox. Leaky roofs and all.
The thought tickles me and it always has. Imagine stripping that support of all its illusions about sugar-daddy owners and “big investors” and leaving them to their own devices. Imagine them sitting in those offices with no-one to fall back on and thereby nobody else to blame. Imagine them owning the supremacy and all the mistakes that go with it.
Who would they blame? Who would they turn on?

Each other, of course. Hence my amusement.
Waddell thinks its viable. He thinks the club should have dumped all that baggage years ago, all that “we are Rangers and we have to win” nonsense. I agree with him. They should have. But you know why they never did and never will? The fans he so lauds, and who he appears to believe exist as a wholly separate thing from the problems plaguing the club.
They are the problem. They are the club.
Charles Green came to Ibrox with no baggage whatsoever. He would have run it like just another club, but he realised almost the minute he had the assets, that the fans would respond better if he basked in the old supremacy and stoked the hate. So he stood on a pitch and made a speech where he blamed everyone else in Scottish football for what happened to the OldCo and in that moment created the Survival Lie’s evil twin The Victim Lie.
He blamed it on sectarianism. And the sectarians in their support ate it up like Sunday dinner. When you see the world through a prism of hate I guess every problem looks like your reflection. These fans revel in this stuff. Waddell knows this, so I don’t know what the Hell he is talking about when he promotes them as the answer to ridding the club of all this stuff.
You only have to see their reaction to last week to see how disengaged from reality they are. Today at home, the fascistic Union Bears had a silent protest; silent, that is, except for their banner against the board which proclaimed that “we deserve better” as if winning trophies was something football fans were entitled to and which clubs had no choice but to deliver.
If the club didn’t need to pander to such egomania, the directors might have the breathing space to actually get on with the job at hand. That club needs building from the bottom up, and all the self-entitlement will not help get that task underway.
None of it matters, not in the end, because there’s something else going on with this article and it’s patently obvious what it is, and it has exactly nothing to do with fan ownership; what Waddell has written today isn’t really about the fans, or not in terms of them owning the club which even he knows is a pipe dream.
In fact, it is an open entreaty for them to put their hands in their pockets and fund phony share issues that could have come right out of the Dave King Book of Wishes. Whether Waddell is taking his lead from the club PR or not, he’s spinning of behalf of the King agenda and Club 1872. He’s telling the fans to pony up … without any actual guarantee of control.
Which is a shame, because thinking of them all together, around the same table, the Sevco Media guys, the Ibrox Noise editorial team, the Follow Follower’s, the Vanguard Scum and the fascists of the Union Bears … it makes me positively giddy.
I would say it would be good to be a fly on the wall … but only if you were the sort of fly that could subsist on drinking blood. There’s be lots of it.
