As far as he knew, unlike other Chinese organizations in America, the entry requireent Members would need to first recommend the person, ould then need to be examined and approved by the other iven
He shared what he knew and Elson laughed, ”If we reco to accept you”
After some consideration, Li Du declined Elson’s offer
Any Chinese-American would be tempted to join the Committee of 100
The Coanization in America Each year, they would invite many key persons from the political and business arenas to join
Li Du remembered that in 2007, the Coive a speech In 2008, they invited the for Blue’s Bill Gates, and Apple’s Steve Jobs, all of who the Comle step, and transforh society
The Committee of 100 emphasized mutual assistance and for itsas they accepted someone into the coar, they would not hesitate to help hiars
In short, to any Chinese person, as long as one possessed the network offered by this organization, then one could become a multi-millionaire in no time
But even with millions in fortune, one still needed to depend on one’s own ability to strive; it took a good blacksmith to make steel The Committee of 100 could provide assistance, but it was not omnipotent
The problem was that Li Du was more than a multi-millionaire He had millions between his bank and watch He also had the very valuable bejeweled dagger at hoht not provide that much additional assistance
But if he were to join it, the elevation in his social standing and growth in connections would be apparent; this organization included theChinese representatives from almost every industry in America
For exalin, the first Chinese governor in America, Gary Locke, the first Chinese feical research expert He Dayi, Yahoo founder Yang Jiyuan, the famous CEO Li Kai-fu, and many more
Elson was evidently aware of such insider infor Li Du into the Co eration, to an ordinary person, joining the Committee of 100 would result in a rebirth, or a step into Heaven: aluessed that Elson wanted to do this to thank hi Steve, as well as to return the favor
But he had the little bug on hand, and beco a wealthy man had been easy for him He would be fine without the help of the committee, so ould he still need to join it?
Having been rejected, Elson asked, puzzled, ”You don’t wish to join? Mr Li, perhaps you are not aware of the Committee’s work?”
Li Du said, ”No, Mr Elson I’m aware, and I still decline
”If I join the Committee of 100 now, it will be due to the help from someone of status, and not because I earned entry based onto Chinese culture, this is called ‘haste makes waste’
”Besides, anization It e to connect and interact with other members on their level
”Most importantly, Mr Elson, is that one day I will join the Coh their invitation”
After hearing his logical analysis, Elson laughed, ”It will not be an easy task to score an invitation fro with hi: ‘It all depends on one’s efforts’ I’m confident in my own ability; I will surely make it”
Elson patted his shoulder ”Good fella, then I won’t go on All the best to you!”
A people Elson found Li Du’s fighting spirit and confidence very appealing
At the airport, before he left, Li Du said, ”Mr Elson, I knohy you want to help me apply for the Committee of 100”
”Oh?” Elson smiled
He nodded ”Yes And you don’t need to worry about it I saved Steve because I’m just a normal person, and only because of this Any normal person will render help when he sees another person in need”
Elson stared at hiand Li Du, Big Quinn, and Godzilla boarded the plane; Elson had booked three first-class tickets
Seated on the large co Quinn smiled, ”Boss, I think your words just noon over the old man”
Li Du said, ”They were not to win hi Quinn was puzzled ”But you really did so favor”
Li Du patted his shoulder ”I’ll share with you guys another saying in Chinese culture: ‘Do good without being concerned hat it leads to’ That is a gentleman’s attitude”
This seemed to strike a chord with Godzilla ”Boss, I’staff, Li Du resumed his peaceful life

Ah Ow ate and drank well, and become very well-developed However, she still could not bark and instead reat foresight and had given her a very appropriate na the first weekend of Septeh Hans’s connections It was a Chinese wood sculptor from Phoenix
After Hans had connected with him, he asked Li Du to contact hi prices”

Since they were available during the weekend, Li Du and Hans drove over with thethem the address, he said that his residence was not easy to locate and instead asked them to wait at the entrance of a resort named ”Sheraton”
