The Tiger Orchid

This is not sugar cane plant though from a far it looks like one.

This is call The Tiger Orchid. Why? Maybe because of the stripes on its petal.

But the amazing thing of this orchid is not the stripe. The whole plant is huge. Some of them so huge that it takes three people to hug it.

Again the amazing thing is not that it's huge. The plant may not flower even if it's so very huge. The plant may not flower for as long as years. And you begin to ask, will it ever flower? Or... Is it really orchid? Maybe it's just a sugar cane.
 

 In fact I have seen it lying on the ground for years. And I scorn in my heart..., sure it will ever flower?

It never flowers when the weather is peaceful and reasonable. It flowers when there is hot weather, dry for a long period of time, and a sudden downpour for continuous days. Which happens this year.

This is the first time I see it blooms. They exhibited it at the garden exhibition at Garden by the Bay. And it blooms gloriously, hundreds of flowers one single plant. And it will last for one to three months. 

So I bought one and placed it right in front of our gallery. This pot is beginning to bloom and you will see it flourish into a full flame of flowers very soon.

It reminds me a phrase I heard in a movie:
"If you are a man of faith, no miracle is needed; if you are not a man of faith, no miracles would be enough."

I like the flowers though I find the name Tiger Orchid rather uninspiring.

If it's me, I call it The Faith Challenging Miracle.

比干的故事——人无心怎么活？

根据封神榜的故事，比干是正直的宰相，忠诚地效命于商朝的纣王（离今天有3000多年）。

纣王是个坏大王，女娲娘娘讨厌他，所以派了妖精化身成妃子迷惑他，以把他的商朝拉倒。

可是纣王再荒唐无道，国家还是好端端的。这全靠比干的英明治理。几只化身成妃子的妖精串谋好，要灭商朝，先杀比干。 

其中一妃假装重病，并称说只有最正直的人的心臟才能治好她的怪病。

当时世上再没有比比干更正直的人。为了救治爱妃，纣王传比干到宫内相见。 圣旨未发，已有人通知比干。

可是身为忠诚的宰相，岂可违背王命？ 

比干赶紧跑到当时法力最高强的道人，姜子牙那儿，并向他求救。 

比干求姜子牙救他一命。把商朝扶持为一个强大的王国是尚未落实的梦想。梦想依旧狂热，他不愿意在这个关头离开人世。 

姜子牙的道术法力，当时的确无人能及。他施的咒，什么妖魔都破不了。他给比干画了一张朱砂符咒。 

比干进宫晋见纣王。纣王求他救救爱妃，没有爱妃他活在人世也毫无意义了。可是，救爱妃的唯一办法是取比干的心臓。 

比干向纣王要了一把刀，并镇定地用那把刀把胸口剖开。他伸手进胸口掏出心臓，献给纣王，然后赶用姜子牙画的符咒封住伤口。伤口立即止血。 

奇迹发生了。比干站立起来，缓慢地走出王宫。 两个妖妃大吃一惊，可是双妖合并的法力也破不了姜子牙的朱砂符。眼睁睁地，她们只好看着比干走出宫门。 

坏人除了不把坏字写在额头，什么诡计都想得出来。其中一个妖妃化身成一个老妇，往比干必经之路赶去。 

老妇手上挽了一个菜篮，待比干经过时，拉开嗓子喊：“空心菜，空心菜。谁愿买我的空心菜？” 

老妇的呐喊吸引了比干的注意。或许在三千年以前的商朝人是没有见过蕹菜的。（蕹菜的茎是空心的，所以蕹菜也叫空心菜）。 

比干走上前去问老妇：“你在卖什么呀？菜空了心怎么长呢？”

老妇看了比干一眼，笑了：“对呀！菜空了心怎么长呢？可是人没了心又怎么活呢？” 

这时，老妇不见了。可是老妇尖锐的问题在空中不断廻旋：“菜空了心怎么长，人没了心怎么活？” 

比干禁止不住空中的声响。声音打从他耳朵钻进他心窝。他的手不住发抖，他禁不住好奇，拿起手中的朱砂符检查…… 

朱砂符飘落……血光狂射……比干全身发软……一代忠臣墜落……可贵的生命终止了……梦想的狂热亦随之终止…… 

从科学角度来看，菜空了心是否能长？能。蕹菜的心便是空的。从科学角度来看，人没了心是否能活？能。人的脑死了才会死。 

姜子牙的法力高强，妖魔破不了他的朱砂符。可是妖魔的问题令比干怀疑他的法力。她以问题，以辩证法来产生怀疑和恐懼。然后把信心与梦想夺走。梦幻的人生就这样被骗走了。 

有趣的是，比干来世被封为财神。为什么会被封为财神？没说。华人向来不爱解释为什么。所以我们只好猜了。 

云龙子旺财馆的范蠡翡翠文财神。

有人说比干没有心，所以让他当财神派财就不会偏心。对这种说法我不大赞同。这不是轮回转世的目的。再看看世间的钱财是怎么分布的就知道财神不可能是不偏心的。 

轮回转世的其中一个原因是让人在来世一圆今世未圆之梦。比干前世要建立一个强盛国度之梦未圆。财乃强国之本，所以让比干今世当财神，以圆前世未圆之梦。 

轮回转世的另一个原因是让人学习前世没学好的功课。 

云龙子旺财馆的翡翠招财进宝大财神。自2012年开始推行。

比干前世没学懂信心与“凡事皆有可能”的功课。今世他封为财神，给那些有信心求财的人送财。 

比干前世听信了“不可能”的理由（菜空了心不能长，人没了心也不能活），今世成为送财的财神，以学习凡事皆有可能。财神爷就像银行柜台的出纳员一样，给那些和银行要钱的人发钱。 

所以下次对待银行出纳员得友善点，并记得感谢给你发钱的财神爷。别对待他们像对待自动提款机一样，因为自己按错密码而对它又吼又踢。 

曾经有个客户问我，“风水的能量是否需要信心才得以发挥？” 

我告诉他：“所有的事物都得有信心才得以发挥。”

当你只看到严冬的霜雪，你必须有信心期待春暖的到来。当连夜的暴雨似乎永无止尽时，你必须有信心迎接黎明的阳光。你必须相信这杯水的纯良，才会容许它滋润你的干渴。你必须相信那碗热饭的母性，才会让它解除肠胃的饥饿。你会选择继续呼吸，当你相信第二天会一样好或更好。 

你不可能去除心中的信心以让云龙子旺财的能量渗入你的人生。 

你有了信心才能把那块翡翠套过你的颈脖，让它坐在你的胸口上。 

别让迷惑的声音，狡猾的耻笑，“不可能”的辩证，偷窃走你奇迹梦幻的人生。 

今年是云龙子旺财馆八周年馆庆。如果我告诉你有了风水的能量，生活是每时每刻的顺风顺水，幸福喜悦，那我是在骗你了。 

“伟大”往往在“和平”丧失之时才能展现出来。“胜利”是在各种形式的战场中出现的。 

是的。我们的确比旁人的成就要高。可是这些成就总是在英勇的战斗中夺得，间中挟带胸口的隐隐作疼。 

近乎狂妄的英勇才能带回狂旺与狂发的收获。世事有时必得如此。

我们也听见了恐懼与怀疑的声响，在空中像警铃般狂鸣。 

但就算双手再抖，我们也不放开胸前的信符。那是莲华之心。正是如此，云龙子旺财馆，四馆半条街，至今傲立汤申路旁。 

我们鼓掌于你握紧胸前的莲华之心，自始至今，从未放下。 

我们欣慰于你重握胸前莲华之心，或曾放下，已重挂胸前。

我们欢呼于你，曾经放下莲华之心，而今决定重新挂上。 

我们双膝从不弯曲于众庸之俗。 

你当继续前行。我们当继续前行。行于信念之道，能量之道，富贵之道，雅致之道，热情之道，梦幻成真之道…… 

直到长长久久…… 

——云龙子大师，27 June 2014。云龙子于狂旺發，八周年馆庆有感。

如何购买你的第一枚云龙子旺财翡翠——一步一步告诉你

如何购买你的第一枚云龙子旺财翡翠，一步一步告诉你。

我们天天庆祝得到祝福的客户的小胜利与大丰收。有时候，工作越来越顺利；或者是孩子的学期考试成绩优异；或者突然得到十亿元生意——第一次得到这么大单的生意。或许你已经看着朋友神奇发达几年了，或许你已经在Facebook上看到我们得到祝福的客户几年来的进展——现在轮到你了。

所有这些惊喜的丰收，丰盛的旺财，快乐的优待……从你的第一枚云龙子旺财翡翠开始。

我建议你从以下五种珍品中，选取你的第一枚云龙子旺财翡翠：

1）翡翠元宝弥勒（8,669新币）

弥勒佛给你带来金元宝！坐在他的巨大财袋上，轻松大笑，他给你带来的财运是快乐和兴旺的。佩戴翡翠元宝弥勒，让你开心地旺财。

这是了不起的一枚旺财翡翠。它或许不是最神奇的，但它帮助了许许多多我们得到祝福的客户，从不旺戴到旺，从“无”到“有”。

2008年，她踏进了云龙子旺财馆。她记得很清楚，当天是清明节，细雨蒙蒙。她的心情沮丧到生命中的谷底。她的丈夫事业成功，但是在地下赌博中损失巨大——5亿星币。房子一批一批出售了。他们搬到一间租住公寓；把金银珠宝都出售了来还债。他们掉落到生命中的无底洞。

她是个家庭主妇，五十来岁，离开在社会上工作已经30年。她只知道一件事：她得为自己和家庭的运气尽点力。她踏进云龙子旺财馆时，是这么想的。

她用枕头下的存款买了第一枚旺财翡翠——翡翠元宝弥勒———心痛如捏。

抑或成，抑或完。

时间一天一天过去。星光移照在有准备的人身上。运气会变，但永远都是眷顾立意突破的人。

2012年，她让我们看她的新房子的平面图。那是在东区的一间豪华平房。2013年，她买下梦寐以求的云龙子旺财馆的翡翠手镯，价值38万新币。2014年，她买下另一极品翡翠观音，价值38万新币。从此事事顺利。这一切，是从他的第一枚旺财翡翠——元宝弥勒——开始。

2）翡翠招财进宝大财神（18,868新币）

招财进宝大财神带来大丰收的财富。财神左手握如意，实现你愿望和梦想；右手握元宝，立即赐给你大财富。

他彩带环绕——彩带带财，让你意想不到的财富源源不绝而来。彩带末端，是财宝箱，装满了金银元宝。我想，财富无人嫌多……

中国传统的财神一共有五个。招财进宝大财神是最大的一个，地位高过其他几个。他是财神的老大，财政部长。如果你想发大财，何不向源头求取？

跟翡翠元宝弥勒相比，这个招财进宝大财神威力更大，正财与偏财都更加旺。

3）天地连理玉上玉翡翠戒指（量身定做，约20,000新币起）

云龙子旺财馆自2006年的招牌。天地连理玉上玉翡翠戒指给得到祝福的客户带来财富，尤其是在他们渴望成功的领域，极其兴旺，超出想象。

通常，我们推荐客户在拥有第一枚旺财翡翠发财之后，才选取天地连理玉上玉翡翠戒指。先有第一枚旺财翡翠，发了财后，再拥有天地连理，就更加发大财了。

当然，如果你想求取更直接更有威力的财源，那就可以选取天地连理。请留意，我们的建议是你尽快加上你的旺财翡翠牌。

4）翡翠千手观音（16,868新币）

翡翠千手观音是云龙子旺财馆最新的翡翠系列。千手观音庇佑和保护云龙子旺财馆，是辉煌胜利的象征。佩戴辉煌的翡翠千手观音，与胜利者同伍，成为胜利者。

如果你想象生活中的难题，威力比你的大十倍，那么，你要傲然挺胸直立。云龙子旺财馆与你同在。千手观音支持你，就像支持云龙子大师一样。

借助翡翠千手观音的威力，寄信于云龙子旺财馆，一切巨人——旺财、权利、爱情，都向你臣服。

云龙子旺财馆——正大、光明、自豪——永远旺事如意。

购买佩戴你的翡翠千手观音：http://bit.ly/lotusjadeite

5）翡翠观音在守（9,868新币）

虽然不及千手观音那么有威力，观音在守是你的财富与福气的保护者。

如来佛的双手是观音的靠山，将有贵人来支持你。什么都逃不出如来佛的双手——连孙悟空也不能。再次发大财的珍贵机会，你不可失去。

购买佩戴你的翡翠观音在守：http://bit.ly/lotusjadeite

以下是你购买你的第一枚云龙子旺财翡翠的步骤：

1）先决定你要购买哪一款云龙子旺财翡翠。

先告诉我们，你想佩戴翡翠元宝弥勒，还是招财进宝大财神，还是直接购买天地连理玉上玉翡翠戒指？还是你看上了其他云龙子旺财馆的翡翠系列，告诉我们。

2）告诉我们，为什么。

我们想知道你选了什么，它是不是可以帮助你达到愿望。或者，我们可以向你建议，别的翡翠系列更加合适而有效力。

最重要的是：告诉你自己为什么要选这款翡翠。第一枚也是最重要的一枚。时机到了，你已经发达了，给自己买更加神奇的极品时，你会记得这第一枚翡翠。多数客户在佩戴新买的旺财极品时，依然佩戴着这第一枚翡翠。

注：这是关系到一生的东西。你这第一枚翡翠是一辈子的，不会年年改变。你可以一生佩戴。当然，我们十分欢迎你升级，而那会从你这第一枚旺财翡翠开始。

3）告诉我们你的出生日期。

我们依据你的生日决定哪一种颜色的翡翠适合你。云龙子旺财馆要求精准。我们不会仅仅因为你已经从杂志或别人那里随便听了一些风水小窍门，就卖给你最佳方案，或者只是因为你的生肖，属老鼠、狗、猴子等等。

虽然我们到目前为止，已经有3万多个客户，我们的建议和方案都是针对个别人的。特别针对你的生辰八字、你的境况、你的需要、你的梦想。由于那是关系到你未来兴旺的事，我们不能一般对待。

在你选了云龙子旺财翡翠后，我们会联系你。在你确认和付款之后（参考下一节），我们就会选一枚适合你的颜色的翡翠给你。

4）付款方式

如果你在新加坡以外，可以汇寄款项。如果你在新加坡，我们得在旺财馆见面。可以用现金、支票、信用卡支付。

有些信用可以免息分期付款。意思是：如用指定银行的信用卡付款，按月分期慢慢支付的同时，你已佩戴你的旺财翡翠。

例如：用大华银行UOB信用卡支付，你的第一枚旺财翡翠，每月大约支付200－300新币。

5）领取旺财翡翠。

在收到付款后7个工作日，你的旺财翡翠将送抵到你的手上。或者，由你亲自来旺财馆领取。

如需要，可以镶金扣。在准备期间，云龙子大师将以最高级特别配制的朱砂亲自开光。


早日开始。从这里开始旺财：http://bit.ly/lotusjadeite

云龙子金牌奖：南洋理工大学毕业典礼颁奖感言（译）

左：
衣若芬副教授兼系主任，中文系；
林科宏先生，南洋理工大学中文系2014年本科毕业生，2014年云龙子金牌奖获奖人；
云龙子大师，云龙子旺财馆创办人；以及
柯思仁副教授，中文系。

在八月五日，南洋理工大学毕业典礼上，云龙子金牌奖颁发给中文系毕业论文最佳的学生。今年已是第二年。

云龙子金牌奖不是为了做善事而设立的。尤其是布施有需求的人的善事更不是设奖本意。

我们《云龙子旺财馆》从以往的经验中学习到，与其布施有需求的人，不如奖励值得的人。

布施有需求的人，需求反倒越大；奖励值得的人，人们的价值反而越来越高。

凡是我们给于的，即都是投资。不管我们投入的是时间、金钱、爱心，所投资的都会日渐扩大。我们不希望社会的需求越来越大；我们希望社会上的价值越来越高。

我们的金牌奖也不是为了“回馈”社会而设立的。我们公司在“收”的同时，一直持续地“給”。我们一直都确保给于的价值多于收的价钱，所以，无需再另外“回馈”社会。

我们设立金牌奖，是在实践我们的信念。就如我们的日常业务一致，有施有受——我们实现承诺客户的，也同时接受客户标签上的回报。

云龙子金牌奖是颁发给中文系毕业论文最佳学生的。我们期待从得奖学生和所有参与的同学得到的回报是：对社会整体正面的影响。

为什么我们要颁奖给毕业论文最佳的学生，而不是总成绩最佳的学生呢？

我从自己写论文的经验中学习一些思考方式。当这些思考方式成为思考习惯，便能终生受用。我们是社会的个体，诸个体受益，整个社会亦会受益。

在我们写论文之前，得先选定一个题目。我们可以随心所欲来选题，但我们受时间限制，必须在规定时间之内完成论文。

在我拟定题目时，我让我的学长看，想听听他们的意见。我的学长说，这题目太大了，难于在荣誉班一年之内完成。我不想放弃情有独钟的题目，也不想随随便便选一个无关紧要的平庸题目，于是，我修改题目，缩小范围。

我们一生之中，时时面对许多抉择，须当机立断，未必能简单地随心所欲。有时候，得把心愿延后至下一回，甚或下一代，乃至于留在梦中，让生活有意义。

适当的决定取决于心愿与责任，信心与慎思。考虑周详并适当定夺。没有良好的决定，就不会有优秀的论文、杰出的职业、兴旺的生意，与美好的生活。

写作论文，最忌剽窃，就是俗话说的“抄袭”。剽窃就是不承认、不尊敬别人的思想，也就是偷窃别人的思想。

自然资源，会因我们的不断开发，而消耗殆尽；我们心中思想，却会因我们的不断开发，而愈益丰富，愈益完善。

一个细加提防剽窃的社会，也是一个尊重思想与开发思想者的社会。唯有如此，社会中的思想才能愈益丰富，愈益完善。

由于剽窃是一大罪过，我们被逼诞生出新的思想。我们必须不断问“为什么”与“如何”，然后才能得出新的“什么”来。

就像音符一个又一个音符的适当配合便能谱出无数音乐作品、无数旋律。不断问“为什么”与“如何”，便能产生无限量种可能的结果。

伟大的科学家、艺术家、哲学家，常常对大家认为是理说当然的事问 “为什么”。他们问的问题大家认为本来就应该是这样的，何必多问。例如：苹果熟了为什么掉下来？为什么我们觉得有些东西很美？为什么我们来到世上？

如果我们会问这样的问题，愿意问这样的问题，我们就可以写出好论文，我们也可以创造杰出的事业，赚钱的生意，和有意义的生活。

当我在1997年，以第一等荣誉学位毕业时，我梦想成为学者。可是，后来发现人生有了更重要的感召。这感召得倾尽我毕生的时间、力量、与爱去完成。因此，成为学者的梦想，只好等待来生，或下一代，或我的学弟，即新毕业的校友，去成全这个梦想了。然而，殊不知在自己以为得放弃梦想时，当年写论文时学到的思考技巧已成为我“戒不掉”的习惯。

如果《云龙子》这品牌可以称得上“超出平庸”，那是由于我在写毕业论文，以及其它相似的文章时所“染上”的思考习惯。

我对我的母校和师长，永远感恩。他们让我毕生拥有这些思考技巧，也毕生让这些思考技巧所拥有。

我也感谢目前任教的老师。是他们的努力，让云龙子金牌奖得以成真。

我祝贺云龙子金牌奖之得奖人，也祝贺其他虽未得奖之参与者。我坚信，只要你拥有云龙子金牌奖所尊重的论文写作元素，将来必定获得更多面、更纯、更闪烁的“金牌”。

《云龙子旺财馆》为你加油。

——云龙子大师，8月10日2014年

The 3rd Lotus Guan Yin and the Double Dragon jadeite Ring | 云龙子旺财馆的第3尊观音，和双龙夺珠翡翠戒指

Guan Yin came to the aid of Lotus on Water on 2 important occasions. 

The 1st Guan Yin gave life to Lotus on Water and started the first Lotus on Water gallery.

The 3rd Guan Yin revealed the treacherous people behind the obstacles of the Lotus.

Initially, Master Yun was reluctant to wear the Double Dragon jadeite ring. He knew the powers of wearing them on the last finger will cast unworthy people away from him. The malefactors 小人 will be gone. Till the 3rd Lotus Guan Yin gave Master Yun a clear message with a fallen lotus, then Master Yun wore it.

Treacherous persons, despite their ties with Master Yun, were chased out of the Lotus like dragons burning their presence into ashes. And with the bad Qi gone, the Lotus prospered 3 times more.

Through the 3rd Guan Yin, the Double Dragon jadeite ring burnt away enemies and worthless people, bringing in benefactors and greater wealth. It is as if Guan Yin sent the Double Dragon to win the battles.

观音两度庇佑了云龙子旺财馆。

第1尊观音给了云龙子旺财馆生命，让我们从“无”到“有”。

第3尊观音揭露了云龙子旺财馆背后的奸佞小人。

起初，云龙子大师不愿戴双龙夺珠。他清楚这枚戒指戴在尾指时的威力。不值得的再费精神的小人会被一扫而空。直到第3尊水晶观音以一朵坠落的莲花给云大师一道明晰的指示，云大师把双龙夺珠戴上了。

奸逆的冤亲债主，无论他们与云大师的交情，一一被赶出云龙子旺财馆，像神龙以火焰将他们的存在烧得一干二净一样。随着恶气的消逝，云龙子旺财馆再次兴旺，3倍以上。

通过第3尊观音，双龙夺珠戒指烧尽了敌人和不值得为偶的小人，带来了贵人和更大的财富。这似乎是观音下令，送来了双龙，让双龙帮我们打赢了胜仗。 

今天就选择旺财。于此购买你的天地连理玉上玉翡翠戒指，或你人生的第一枚云龙子旺财翡翠：http://bit.ly/lotusjadeite

It is not Charity - Lotus on Water Gold Medal (云龙子金牌奖) on NTU convocation to student who score highest in the thesis paper

From left:
Associate Professor I Lo-fen, Head, Division of Chinese;
Mr. Lim Ke Hong, graduate of NTU Division of Chinese and 2014 Lotus on Water Gold Medal Awardee;
Master Yun Long Zi, founder of Lotus on Water; and
Associate Professor Quah Sy Ren, Division of Chinese.

No no. We don't do this out of charity. Especially if charity means giving to the needy.

Lotus on Water has learned the painful lesson of not giving to people who need, but giving to people who deserve.

We have discovered that by giving to people who need, people become more needy. By giving to people who deserve, people becomes more deserving.

Whatever we give to, we are investing in, and whatever we invest in (with our time, money and love) we expand it. We wish not to expand the needy in our society. We wish to expand the deserving in our society.

And we are Not giving back to the society. As a company we have been giving while at the same time, receiving. And I have always made sure that we give more than we receive. So there is not a need to give "back".

Yes this is part of acting on what we believe in. It is consistent with what we have always been doing, like part of our day in day out transaction, giving to clients what we promise and receiving from clients what we have listed on the tags.

Lotus on Water Gold Medal is to be given to the Chinese Cultural Studies Student who have scored highest in the thesis research paper. And we wish to receive, not just from the winner of this medal but from all who have participated in it. We wish to receive some positive, on the whole, as a society.

Why do we give the medal to the highest scorer of the thesis paper and not the top overall result student?

From my own experience writing thesis paper, there were many lessons I learned. If we are to make them habitual, they will benefit us throughout our lives. And when we, as part of the society being benefited, will bring benefits to the whole society as well.

When we write thesis papers, we get to choose a topic to write on. We can choose the topic based on our passion. However we need to complete everything the topic covers within a limited time.

When I drafted my topic, I showed it to my seniors and sought for their advice. My seniors told me the topic I chose was too big to be completed in my one short honors year. I was not willing to abandon a topic I am passionate about, and I do not wish to pick up a topic too mediocre, too insignificant. I adjusted my topic a little to reduce the content amount the paper has to cover.

In life, we have many decisions to make. It's too easy to say we follow our passion. Yes we should pursue our passion, but sometimes we have to delay the gratification of it. Sometimes we have delay it to the next time, sometimes to the next generation, sometimes to keep it always in our dream to make our living meaningful.

Good decision in life depends on the weighing of passion and responsibility, of confidence and consideration. We must have all these to make good decisions. Without good decisions, no papers, nor careers, nor business, nor life, can be great.

The gravest taboo in writing a thesis paper is plagiarism. The layman term is "copycatting". Plagiarism is not acknowledging ideas created by others. Plagiarism is stealing the ideas of others.

Most of the resources given by nature will be depleted when we mine it. But the ideas in our mind becomes richer in quantity and finer in quality as we mine it. 

A society that takes conscious effort to prevent plagiarism respects ideas and those who mine it. And only in this way, ideas in the society becomes richer and finer.

Because it is a great sin to plagiarize, we are forced to come out with new ideas. We are forced to ask more "why" and more "how". And as a result, a better "what" is created.

Like the musical notes of "Do, Re, Mi, Fa, So" are mixed and matched to create musical melodies of millions of pieces, the questions of "Why" and "How" are asked to create unmeasurable numbers of possibilities.

Great scientist, artists, and philosophers ask why on the most obvious things that normal people think it's ridiculous not to just accept as matters of fact. For instance, why did the apple fall when it's ripe? Why do we call something beautiful? Why are we here?

The same kind of questions we ask, and willing to ask, to create a good thesis, also create outstanding careers, profitable enterprises and a meaningful life.

When I graduated with a first class honors from NTU in 1997, I wanted to be an academician. But I have an other calling in life. A calling that requires more than all the time, energy and love I can give in this life. And so I have to delay this academic dream to probably my next life, or the next generation, or my more junior brothers, which are all the present new born alumni who have the opportunity to pursue an academic career. However, little did I realized at that time, that the thinking skills I acquired when I was writing my thesis have become habitual.

If Lotus on Water can be considered as "above mediocrity", in making a difference in lives of individuals and in society, a large part of it is due to the habitual thinking skills I acquired when I was taught how to write my thesis paper, and all other essays of a similar nature and a smaller scale.

And I am, and will be forever, grateful to my alma mater, and all my lecturers, tutors and mentors, who have helped made me a life time addict to these thinking habits. 

And I am grateful to you present lecturers, coordinators, tutors who have put in lots of effort to make Lotus on Water Gold Medal possible.

And I congratulate you the winner of Lotus on Water Gold medal, and I congratulate also you who have not won this medal. For I know and I am sure, that if you will never forsake these essence of thesis writing which the Lotus on Water Gold Medal is respecting, you shall receive many many medals, made of finer gold, in time to come.

And Lotus on Water will cheer you on.

云龙子旺财馆制作富存茶的原料是老树大叶普洱。老树普洱不是人工栽种的台地茶，而是生长了几十年至上百年，吸收了天地精华的大普洱茶树。

制成熟茶茶饼之后，富存茶与沉香檀香一起储放。一边让干燥的茶饼吸收沉香檀香里头多余的水份，帮助沉香檀香更加快速地发酵，一边容许沉香檀香里的旺财气息，渗入并留存在茶饼里头。所以叫富存茶。

云龙子旺财产品以旺富旺贵著名。生产的旺财产品如下：

极品神像佛像——看得见的富贵。

吉祥级翡翠，极品翡翠，天地连理玉上玉翡翠戒指，双龙夺珠——摸得着的富贵。
