My Diary September 2020

September 30

My Story

Today is the last day of September, and soon we're appraoching end 2020.

I have today for the first time watched the debate between President Trump and former vice President Biden on youtube. Frankly speaking I wa squite disappointed by their performances, as the President or candidate. They looked no better than an interview for an engineering job I have had more than 20 years ago. I was once interviewed by a room of German managerial stuff - I mean a dozen of them - speaking all German, back more than 20 years ago. I was then very confident and even proud of myself. Somehow I was feeling superior to these German managers, because I can not only speak German as they all were, but I can speak English fluently as well, and Chinese, French and Russian. I have sound technical background, good governmental relations and previous experiences in some of the best corporations and organizations in the power industry. In one word, I have evrything at hand and therefore I can easily meet any of their challenge - from any country at any level of corporate. Before that German company I was also interviewed by another multinational, which praized my English very much.

Back to today's debate, I was very upset by these American politicians. They are like street people, fighting for the small things while forgetting their important mission to save Americans from Chinese communist threat, a threat which will eventually ruin the future of all people on the planet - out freedom of expression, speech, thinking, publishing, movement, and many others, Freedom is everything, freedom is the most important thing making America great and unique. Chinese people enjoy no freedom, therefore there is no chance for China under communism to develop into a self-sufficient country with its own scientific innovation. American needs great leaders at this time of critical moment.

The "Mothers" Project

I have searched again for all possible videos clips about mother memorials, and this time I think I have almost found all important video sources - in all I have downloaded about 200 songs in video forms in Chinese alone, and in addition, about 50 songs in English and other languages. I wll continue to look for songs and music about mother memorials, until one day almost all songs and music are downloaded to my computer.

Originally I wanted to host these videos to youtube challels, for that purpose I have created a couple of channles each dedicated to certain topic. Unfortunately uploading to youtbue is getting more and more difficult, until it was found it completely impossible. I was so angry with youtube uploading speed that ihave decided to stop uploading and what's more I have deleted all my videos already on the channels - in all about 200 pieces, and determined never to use youtube again. Google service is nowadays among the worst, if possible don't touch it. I have tried several other options, and there are some youtube alternative which are much faster and easier to do. But after some thnking I will not upload all the videos to these other video hosting services. Instead I will tell the visitors to my site www.mothermemorials.eu.org saying that if they are interested in some of the videos I will provide them with with a link or email them the video in question.

The biggest job today is to completely update the above site by making all contents available in my computer to the site, particularly the poems, essays and stories. They are all in Chinese. It took me tremendous time and efforts, though.

Thus the site is reay, and in the future I need to collect more information in order to improve the site little by little, which is my lifetime mission, because it is my mission to worship, honor and commemorate my mother in my rest of life.

My Story

I am now living among the poorest of the poor. My neighbors come from the poorest provinces of China, speak weird dialects, and bahave like barbarians. The room we live are actually split up by the previously big rooms, therefore there is no sound shield, you can hear your neighbors talk clearly. I don't know if I can hear the noises when my neighbor couples make love in the night or during the day. I am so busy that I don't have the time to listening what my neighbors are doing, but if they talk, I can definitely hear, because these people talk very loudly.

This late afternoon I went to the hill about 500 m south to my abode, and this time I have for the first time of my life a poisonous snake called 竹叶青蛇 in Chinese or Trimeresurus stejnegeri or chinese green tree viper. The snake was lying on the paved steps on the hill and it was difficult to distinguish it from the leaves. At first sight I did not recognize it as a snake, with a closer look I realized it a green leave snake as called here in China. I throw a stone at it twice, and then it slid away.

The "Mothers" Project

I have decided not to upload videos to the Tencent Video hub, rather I will upload all videos to Wechat Channels, and by some tricks all of them can be shown.

Therefore it is not necessary to use wordpress.com blog to provide links to the Tencent site.

Yet for non-Chinese viewers I will still develop a site with links to youtube videos, therefore this morning I wake up very early at 4:30 am and worked on uploading my video files to youtube. Unfortunately youtube limits daily uploads to about 100 videos, therefore I have to stop and continue tomorrow.

The uploading of videos and the preliminary configuration and content preparations for the Wechat Pub Channels were also completed this early morning, so that now users can see a global picture of how my Wechat Pub Channel may look like - of course there are only a few users there. Users are joined on invitation basis via wechat.

Online Financial Business

Today I have successfully run my 1st mobile app, after having solved a couple of problems of various kinds. Each step was a hard work in trouble shooting. Now I can proceed with the official development of a finance app.

My Story

昨晚我又梦见XXX，已经是第N次了。 梦中她很喜欢我，我对她的爱是如此纯真，我的感觉是如此之好。在醒来以后，我发誓此生非她不娶。她如今也接近40，但我比她大整整18岁。我目前有这个能力和资格娶她吗？根本没有。所以，我必须尽快走出困境，创造条件。虽然我昼日从来不想她，因为我根本没有这种想法，否则我完全是癞蛤蟆想吃天鹅肉了。但梦中屡次出现，难道这是上帝的旨意？倘如如此，我只能顺服。几十年来，我出来没有对一个女性如此的爱意和动情，尤其是母亲去世后，我不再对女性有感情。母亲把我的灵魂都带走了，我的心已冷。可是如今夜深人静之际，梦中却又出XXX的身影，而且感情是如此美好，如果真是上帝安排，我应该走出这一步。如果我有这个条件，我就应该娶她。可是我能保证她幸福吗？我没有让母亲过上幸福的生活，难道我又要让如此纯洁美丽的姑娘失望吗？愿上帝帮助我！

Last night I dreamed of XXX again, it was the Nth time. In my dream, she liked me very much, my love for her was so innocent, and my feeling was so good. After waking up, I swear that I will not marry anyone except her in my life. She is now close to 40, but I am 18 years older than her. Am I currently capable and qualified to marry her? absolutely not. Therefore, I must get out of the troubles and miseries as soon as possible and make the necessary conditions. Although I don't think her during the day, because I don't have this idea at all, otherwise I would completely want to eat swan meat. But she appears repeatedly in my dreams, is this God’s will? If so, I shall only obey. For decades, I have not shown such affection and affection for a woman, especially after the death of my mother, I no longer have feelings for women. My mother took my soul away, and my heart was cold. But now in the deadly quiety of night, the figure of XXX appears in my dream again, and the feeling is so beautiful, if it is really arranged by God, I should take this step. If I have the necessary condition - that is, enough money, I should marry her. But can I guarantee her happiness? I didn't let my mother lead a happy life. Am I going to disappoint such a pure and beautiful girl? May God help me!

My personal site

I have reverted the plutuse.com site from private information to the earlier orientation of a fintech oriented site, while the private information is moved to the new site of http://markchen.eu3.org/ . Be careful, this site is not having no problems. There are lots of missing links, whic are to be repaired later on.

On the other hand, this site, markchen.int.eu.org will add 2 extra sections, business and studies, which are otherwise being updated at plutuse.com. Thus all my private activities, incl business and researches, will also be reported here, in addition to personal life.

The "Mothers" Project

Basically I will focus on thw Wechat platform, but also in two sites - one for the Chinese audience and the other for the international english speaking audiences. In addition I need two video platforms - youtube and tencent video - to publish my videos or to provide links to my sites in order for the visitors to watch the videos because the 2 sites cannot upload videos.

Online Financial Business

This will be my main business activities but no ideas how to start with it. A well developed website of plutuse.com and a would-be mobile app is necessary, and then marketing in various locations - social media, video platforms, forums etc.

Modem IC Design

I will no more promote this service, but studies will continue forever.

Freelancing

I don't know now how to continue with this service. Fiverr is not the right place for me, because there are only projects with very low prices, not for me. Other platforms are also not offering the right opportunities for me, for various reasons. Or the Chinese IT freelancing sites ask for too many personal data and information, taking not only too long to fullfill but also involving great risks of privacy deprivation.

My Story

The "Mothers" Project

Tried to find more charity/fund/foundations for mother memorials, but none was found. Regsitered at one fundraising site.

It seems also there is no dedicated website where I can publish my stories about mother.

Tried to understand more about earning money on Wechat Gongzonghao, where I will publish mother memoirs in Chinese.

Also searched for information about how to earn money on twitter, for I will promote my English mother project there.

Registered a free domain for the mother project at eu.org, mothermemorials.eu.org, waiting for approval.

I will use a single website to host the Chinese and English versions of the Mother project, because the PC sites will only serve as the redirectional guide site to the (Chinese as well as English) mobile apps. Of course there will be published some sorts of contents, but not much.

Continued learning Flutter in order to develop my first mobile app, cross platformed.

Modem IC Design

Made some changes to the site documents of www.angelia.space.

Freelancing

Modified the little ebook called "How to make money on Fiverr". Also made preparations for a number of sections for this particular gig on Fiverr, incl. a description, Q&A section, keywords, 3 packages, etc etc. Pictures are also bening designed, along with a pdf presentation. A video will be prepared later on too. The revision will continue for the next couple of days or even weeks, before it is sold to clients.

My Story

The "Mothers" Project

Searched more charity and foundations, but none is related to my purpose.

Also found more special websites dedicated to mothers, but none is related to memorial services.

Tried to understand how to earn money on "Wechat Gongzong Hao", where I will suppose to make my Mother project known to the world, at least inside China.

Learned something about Flutter and the Dart programming language in preparation for developing mobile app in cross-platform environment.

Online Financial Business

Modified the introductory letters - Chinese only - to be used to present my services when promoting my fintech business.

Searched websites in the areas of bitcoins, tried to register at some of them in order to interact with the visitors there.

Tried to figure out how to promote this type of service on the "Toutiao" site.

Modified the website a bit.

Modem IC Design

Freelancing

Completed the first draft of the ebook - Howto Make Money on Fiverr-, but need lots of jobs to improve it. In addition, the corresponding fiverr gig needs several eye-catchy pictures or even video, well-prepared description, detailed package info incl. Q&A section, keywords, three packages etc etc. Long way to go.

For Chinese market I will target at mobile app development and SEO consulting. Websites where these kinds of freelance jobs are offered are searched.

My Story

The "Mothers" Project

After careful considerations I am determined to first only develop and operate a Chinese mobile app. PC website will be completely different from the mobile app, because these two cannot be seamlessly made identical and synchronize, even the conversion between the two can be perfect, which is very unlikely.

The development and operation of the mobile app as well as the PC site consists of three main parts:

1) Technical development, that is the selection of development platforms and technologies, the actual coding and development as well as the language choice - Chinese or/and English;

2) Content editing, incl for mother and for all other mothers; and

3) promotion of the mobile app as well as the PC site, incl also fundraising.

It's a difficult task for an one-man enterprise.

Upto now, I am basically determine to use Flutter to develop the mobil app's front end.

As far as promotion is concerned, I will use two Chinese media platforms to spread the information about my project, that is Toutiao and Wechat Gongzonghao. Fundraising will also be started.

The site and app structure and contents are also a bit enriched and improved.

Online Financial Business

Commit the new site to the PAAS site called bitbucket so that the old site pages are completely covered by the new site dedicated fintech business. Originally the plutus.eu.org site was also a site with my personal information about skills, career and business.

Modem IC Design

Made some changes and updated the new pages.

Freelancing

Considering business models for Chinese and international market. For international market, it was relatively clear that the main focus will writing and selling ebooks of various kinds via various web portals, social media sites etc, while for Chinese markets it is still undecided. It is undecided both for the areas of services and marketing channels.

Finalizing the ebook called Howto_Earn_Money_Fiverr_Ebooks.

My Story

Business Strategy

I have 4 business sections under operation now, this is now clear as following:

• The "Mothers" project
• Fintech project
• IC design project
• Freelancing project

I have basically figoured out how these projects are to be run, but details will not be given here.

Anyway this sounds like too much for me, therefore I shall simplify it a bit.

PC Site and Mobile App for the "Mothers" Project

It's a difficult to decide how to design the PC website and how to make an monile app out of it. If the web technologies chosen for the PC site are not right, there might be difficulty to convert it into an mobile app. PHP/MySql driven site might not be able to be converted into mobile apps, therefore other technologies must be adopted, but I have no ideas yet. Therefore it's worth trying to figure out the best technologies for PC website development, so that this PC site can be later easily converted into mobile app with appropriate online tools or other software applications, free or charged. Another problem to be solved is to synchronize the PC site and the mobile app once they both are running - not only the functioning modules but also the data produced during the site and app running. I don't know yet if this is possible. Under extreme case I might run the PC site and mobile app differently, design them separately, with the mobile app as the primary and the PC site simplified as secondary venue.

As far as fundraising is considered, I prefer not to start it now. Or I would contact a few charity organizations in the local province of Zhejiang and several other outside China, to see if they are interested in this project, or rather, if they are truely humans, for true humans will always sympathize with the loss of my mother. Unfortunately nowadays there are very few people who are really humane. Today I will modify the motivation letter for mother project fundraising letters both in Chinese and English and try to send them out to a few organizations and see how they react to my letters. I guess they will just ignore my messages as was the case few years ago when my mother was just gone.

Finalized the initial version of coverletter in Chinese and sent it to Jack Ma Foundation in Hangzhou. Drafted an English version and wil be revised tomorrow to be sent to international charity organizations for raising fund for my Mother project.

Online Financial Business

Today I managed to modify the entire web pages of my future website for financial services, which will be my key business area when I have enough money to invest in the financial market and make big money, real big money. Right now I am only preparing for that business area, because I don't own that much money to dive into the financial industry. One needs at least a 10 million Dollar to do something there, and today I even don't have ten thousand Dollar. But wait a few years I will have all the millions.

Modem IC Design

Added my research, studies, writing and design activities and records to the one-page website of www.angelia.space. Later on I have split the one page site to mulyiple pages to make more readable.

September 05

My Story

This morning I have reviewed all the literature in the area of telecommunications (all together I have about 40 ebooks) and I have finally choosen about 10 books for futher fine reading. Most of them I have already read once.

I have again reviewed all the current no code or low code mobile app development platforms, but unfortunately there is no free platform. Some provide only limited free experiences - a few days or with very limited features, therefore all these platforms cannot be used, thus this option cannot be adopted for developing my first mobile app for my "Mothers" project.

Therefore I have again reviewed all the cross-platform mobile app development tools and finally I will decide between Flutter and React - Native. I prefer to use Flutter because it is developed by Google while React is developed by Facebook, which is more evil than Google with regards to collaboration with the totalitarian regime in China.

Fund raising for the "Mother" project will begin. Today I will write my Chinese version of fund raising message, which will late be posted to crowd funding sites in China. The English text is existing nut needs major modifications before it can be reposted to English crowd funding sites. I have done so a couple of years ago, but without results. This time I will be serious and hope will create some leads.

Right now I am not decided yet whether or not to develop and operate the Mother site in full scale, with the involvement of the Chinese people, the entire society or even the Chine government at various levels or in various forms. For example, I am not sure whether I shall get some kind of funding from the charity foundations because they are all controlled by the Chinese government. At the moment the Chinese government is determined to run China as a dictatorship and see Chinese people as its slaves and tools, not human beings, it's not the right time and place to implement my plan for the good of people and God. I will first do it quietly, running a small site or app outside China and see how it is reacted by Chinese people and other nations. If China is still heading towards ruin by rejecting God's laws and rule by God, I will focus on a non-China version, that is an English version, both the website and the mobile app.

September 04

My Story

I will basically choose a cross platform development tool - either Flutter or React-Native to develop my mobile apps for my "Mothers" applications, in order that they can be applied to both Android and iOS. I will also first try out this app in some of the no/low code platforms such as APPyPie/APPMakr and AppSheet. However, I have not yet decided where to secure my domain names and hosting for the PC based website.

September 03

From tomorrow on my diary will be composed of two parts: 1) my own diary and 2) important events in China, colected fro mweb worldwide. I will report this late part in 4 languages: Chinese original, English, French and German. I hope this part will be soon videoed on youtube and other media.

My life will be very busy.

I have to earn money, and I have to worship and remember my mother.

Therefore I need to develop a site dedicated to mother my own and all mothers of the world. This site will be developed and operated in my lifetime. It will be presented both in Chinese and English and in PC and in mobile. But first for the nexy few months only a Chinese version of PC based website and mobile Apps will be developed.

And I will not forget my real business ambition: to become one of the most influential financial tycoon one day, therefore I shall also prepare for the financial business strategy, once I have enough capital. At the moment, though, I will only prepare for launching my PC based site both in Chinese and English. Real business might only begin at a later time.

The above businesses cannot bring me ready cash, therefore I have to work out a way to cash in. At the moment I can only find out opportunities from online freelancing sites or other cash-earning sites such as youtube, facebook etc. I can either offer my expertise in languages - you know I know 6 languages -, IT such as web development, web scaping, SEO etc, and of course IC design.

IC design will be my lifetime research area, especially in the modem design for satellite Internet. But at the moment there is no chance to win any design order, therefore I will shorten my time on IC design and related technologies, only in the evenings, for 2 hours a day roughly. Anyway I will never leave this sector, and keep me competitive, whatever the situation may be, because it is my key competitive are.

And lastly I have to keep my linguistic expertise current, by listening to youtube videos in English, German and French. And for English I shall also read English novels in order to maintain my level at reasonable standards, to prepare for writing several key books when there is enough money in my pocket.

So you see, I am very busy, have lots of things to do, although I am living alone, without income, friends, jobs and family. Life is hard, but one has no way out as to continue to live, unless one decides to stop the life path. I cannot stop it because my mother is looking down at me from Heaven, and I don't cause troubles to my brother and anyone who cares for me.

September 01

Today I have finally decided to develop a site called "Mothers" in English or "天下母亲" in Chinese, after about 2 months of considerations. Details of the development and operations management will be discussed later on step by step. Briefly put, it is dedicated to mother care, and mother memorials, at least for my own mother, and eventually for all mothers all over the world.

Last Sunday, on August 30, my friend and high school classmate Xu Jianhua has driven me to my native village, whernce I picked up some clothes and bed stuff for the coming Autumn and Winter. In Linghu, where I have attended the high school in the late 1970's, another two of our classmates, Zhou Xingfa and Shen Xiaorong, joined us and we four have had a lunch there in a restaurant. I was a high school pupil at Linghu Middle School from 1976 to 1978. The town of Linghu was back at that time quite famous, but now its economy seems behind many other towns in the Huzhou city region. I first took a bus from my humble lodging to a metro station in downtown Hangzhou, and after more than half an hour, I took the metro to a station called Zanongkou and waited there for more than half an hour and finally XU found me and took me to his car and we went to the Highway to Huzhou. Xu first drove to his native village there to meet with his mother, and after a while, we turned to Linghu, and sit in a restaurant for almost to hours, before Zhou arrived. Apparently Zhou did not want to come, but he finally did come, after having his lunch at his home. Zhou is working in Lianshi about 30 minutes driven distance to Linghu.

Although I've determined to develop a "Mother" site, I might still consider online finance or fintech as my major business orientation, because this is the area where on can make the biggest money.
