在Khind 工作了九年，后面四年被打入冷宫。。直到成功转进 Khind Alliances, 在KS Chan的带领/栽培下，我从出江湖，有机会在重要的会议出现，开始榜上题名，开始有人注意我，给我机会表现。。
一来，是那时间表 Missleading... 说是8-5pm。。。突然妈妈拨电来说妹妹不舒服，没吃东西也吐！开车回家时，我是很想告诉妈妈不用紧的，是姐姐的病菌传染给妹妹，没事的。。。 但后来想了想，工作还是我女儿的健康重要呢？？所以飞车回车，速去速回。。。 怎知，wohuidao公司， Presentation完了。。。
我问了问同事，以为他们是跟我开玩笑，叫我去吃。。。问了问几个，也是同样的答案。。后来看来看会议室，见到老板们还在里面，我就以为，可能那些salesman 没有参与第二部分吧？！？！ 再次看时，会议室的人全走了。。
一向来，我最喜欢就是Presentation，喜欢看人Present，也很喜欢上台。。。 所以对这一次的错过，感到很难过。。
虽然KS Chan是说，会将他们的presentation slides 给我，但这不是我要的。。。 我要看他们台上的威风， USD200千，请他们过来，错过真的很可惜

Hi Shiv,
Sorry for the late reply as I was
travelling and unable to reply you timely. While I’ll be providing a structured
brief about ceiling fan market in Malaysia in weeks to come, I thought of just
sharing below some useful info for your team to start off.
·
Overall
ceiling fan yearly market size estimated in 2014: USD 65 million (considerably
attractive in view of country population of 28million only)
·
Market
segmentation share:
1.
High
end/premium (unit price above US$ 150, mostly designer/deco fans): 15%
2.
Mid
price range with remote control (unit price USD 80 – 150): 45%
3.
Basic
& low price range (unit price USD 35 to 80): 40%
·
Most
ceiling fans are AC operated motor but with the increasing awareness of
Eco-friendly and energy efficiency which consumers going after in near future,
DC operated motor fans will be the future trend and the mass production will
result in economically viable.
While the project is to develop energy saving and
smart features ceiling fans, with aesthetically appealing design to modern
household living in urban area, our main target consumers would be the mid
price range segment. To assist you, following are the key players in the
market:
Panasonic - http://www.panasonic.com/my/consumer/home-appliances/indoor-air-quality/ceiling-fan.html
Sharp

Alpha - http://www.alphamalaysia.com/

a detailed schedule on Global Immersion with key milestones soonest possible.
Until then all the best to your team’s preparation. We look forward to meeting
you guys in January 2015. Cheers.

Subject: Harvard Business School Team Introduction and Call
Dear Mr. Tan,
We hope this message finds you well. We wanted
to introduce ourselves as the Harvard Business School FIELD team that will be
working with Khind-Mistral in the coming months, culminating in our visit to
Kuala Lumpur in January. We have attached a PDF to this email that briefly
outlines our educational and professional backgrounds. We are very
excited to work with your team and hope to provide tangible value to the firm
through this project.
To our understanding, the objective of the project is
as follows:
Develop a new product design for
the household ceiling fan that appeals to young urban couples living in Kuala
Lumpur. The concept should consider new energy saving mechanisms
(potentially smart technology), as well as the design and décor of the fan.
Accordingly, we are hoping to set up a call with you
next week to discuss this project scope, along with some background on the
market and Khind-Mistral as a whole. We would also like to take this
opportunity to more formally introduce ourselves and address any questions you
may have. Given the 12 hour time difference between Kuala Lumpur and
Boston, we have listed a few time slots below that may work for you – please
let us know your preference. After solidifying a date and time, we will
follow up with an agenda for the call prior to our discussion. In
addition, please let us know if you would prefer a Skype video conference or a
traditional conference call and we will provide full dial-in/log-in
information.
Monday, October 27: 7am EST or 9pm EST
Tuesday, October 28: 7am EST or 9pm EST
Wednesday, October 29: 7am EST or 9pm EST
Thursday, October 29: 7am EST
Furthermore, if there are any internal company
documents or market research reports that you feel may be of particular
relevance to our project, we would love to review these before or after the
call. Thank you for your help, and we look forward to a
productive discussion.
All the best,
