In Less Than 3 Hours From Now…

… the BIGGEST PLR blowout of the year will take place in the Internet Marketing arena – planet-wide.

8 months of silence after the previous PLRGold release back in January this year.

2 months of idea brainstorming, planning and conception.

4 weeks of pushing the pre-launch sequence.

9 days of performing the winning ritual and abstaining from meat.

471 JV Partners & Affiliates and still counting.

40+ new PLR products up for ante.

Several days of membership and affiliate system set up.

Boasting? I can’t allow myself to be disarmed with modesty at this stage. I have worked really, really hard (literally 200% effort) to conceive the fifth and final PLRGold release, which is due to launch today at 8:00 AM Eastern Time.

And I am totally convinced that no one has ever put together a PLR Blowout this size, this scale at any time before… until today.

Now I’m bidding my time. The verdict will be answered in less than 3 hours from now.

Mindvalley Labs, Flickr Party & Meeting New People

Another crazy but interesting week to conclude the very eventful month of August! πŸ˜‰

Earlier this month, I was given the “opportunity of the lifetime” to learn from yet another highly successful E-Commerce company, situated in the heart of Kuala Lumpur.

It’s totally cool in more ways than one, because for starters, I don’t have to commit myself to them – this means I can still work on my business at anytime I want and come in at any time I want for the next four weeks.

Secondly, they are running a lot of very interesting projects and their strategies, concepts, people, management, etc. are soooo unconventional. I am not apart of their team, but I will be coming in to brainstorm ideas with them in exchange for priceless education no money can buy.

Yes, they have openly admitted they want to pick my brain. Well, I’m not game after salary (since I already have a lot of those green stuff by now) so it would be wise if I pick the brains of the 10-20 smart people there, so heck they can have my brain for all I care! πŸ˜›

Monday – 27th August

Ok, it’s time to “go to school” at Mindvalley Labs.

Oh, didn’t I tell you that it’s also called the MV Institute, School of Higher Learning for Gifted Youngsters? (Man this sounds so much like X-Men now…)

The MV Institute

Hmm… School of Higher Learning for Gifted Youngsters. Man, I should be honored. πŸ™‚

The first mutant MV-Men, Khai Lee greeted me as soon as I entered the “MV Institute”…

Khai Lee a.k.a. Alpha 5 from Power Rangers

Yup, that’s Khai Lee but…

Stunned!

… DUDE (yeah there goes my constipated-looking face again), Power Rangers? Whoa – that’s nostalgic! Reminds me a lot about my Power Ranger and Zord toys back when I was still a kid (wait, I AM still a kid – only at heart).

Ok so Khai Lee, his other fellow mutant Janne and I then proceeded to do battle of the brains – also called brainstorming – on a couple of their current projects – out of their 1,732,986 web projects in total.

Khai Lee

It’s interesting to note that I know all of the 3 Khai brothers, starting from their youngest one, Khai Yong, who was my former school- and class mate, then Khai the eldest of the 3, and later Khai Lee himself, though I knew he existed for some time earlier, since he too went to the same school and was 2 years my senior.

Janne – he hails from Finland and is a very brilliant person. A common trait among all the mutants people here at Mindvalley Labs, also known as the MV-Institute of Higher Learning for Gifted Youngsters (like me, since I can bend my both my thumbs straight). This guy is excellent when it comes to programming and applications. He’s proven to be highly a systematic planner and he does Yoga in his free time. Ok, worship ends here.

So we finished up most of the Monday and Tuesday brainstorming for ideas and coming up with solutions on a couple of their latest projects. πŸ™‚

Tuesday Night at Flickr’s

An impromptu invitation to one of the KL clubs for Internet mutants! Hosted by Flickr.

Flickr Bash

They were all total strangers to me there – and I was reminded of what a shy person I really am – I intend to do something about this after my PLRGold5 launch… really seriously. A friend of mine told me that she thinks I’m not shy, but very very self-conscious. She’s right about that too. Hmm… Another problem to tackle at the roots.

Anyway, I did what I came here for. Take pics. Do some poses. And then more.

Ninja

Edmund “Ninja” Loh with Tim Tim. Hmm… why was I so tanned? No, I didn’t drink.

Da Gang

L-R: Me, Tim Tim, Khai Lee, Meike.

A little bit about Meike: she started working with Mindvalley as an Intern just last 2 Mondays ago. She hails all the way from Germany, and is now learning to experience the local culture here! πŸ™‚

Wednesday – The Night of the Owls

I didn’t want to pass up the chance to meet 2 of my avid blog stalkers fans, Ben Chin and Peng Joon, even though it was going to be very late at night.

So yeah, I walked all the way from DU, passing by 1Utama and then to Banana Leaf at Centrepoint. Yes, I’ve got an abundance of stamina. πŸ™‚

Deserted 1U

Hmmm… it’s not all the time you get to see 1U THIS empty. So here I am with Matt Ng, Ben Chin and Peng Joon.

Teh Tarik!!

This went on all the way until 3:30 in the morning. 😐

Thursday – Meeting the Big Cheese

Starting the day before, I hadn’t really slept (does 5 hours of half-sleeping with an active brain in 72 hours count?). My mind was hyper active even though my body was physically tired. Happens all the time when I get an influx of idea overload. If I am not worried, I am super excited. Not good for health, though, since it robs my sleep.

So okay, I went to Mindvalley Labs again and this time, guess who I met?

Professor V

The tanned version of Professor X. Alright. Let’s do Battle of the Brains again. You’re on!

After this, since I was to go back to Johor Bahru again the next morning, I decided to drop by and visit Sen Ze and friends.

I didn’t take any photos here, but it was great to know that my SOLOBIS buddies there are doing good. πŸ™‚

Btw, fun fact: Sen Ze’s latest book, AirAsia’s Success Story, co-authored with Jayne Ng, had achieved bestseller status within just 2 weeks after launch into the local bookstores. CONGRATULATIONS! πŸ™‚ That was a nasty feat.

I didn’t chance upon meeting Karan Dhillon, my gooood friend arch enemy at the SOLOBIS HQ. But for the fun of teasing him and his obsession over Sesame Street, I’ll just post this edited pic here.

Karan!!

Go ahead – click on the thumbnail and view the enlarged picture. I made this spoof pic some couple of months back. πŸ™‚

Friday – Journey to the South and Independence Day

I was at Pudu in the morning, just an hour before my scheduled bus trip to the South. Coincidentally, today was Independence Day and there was a parade nearby.

There were aircrafts performing some show on TV and since I was very nearby, the sound of the aircrafts zooming by at super-sonic speed was deafening!

Ah, and here’s our friendly guys in white.

Men in White

Ok so that pretty much wraps it up! πŸ™‚

Meeting MattGyver, The PLRGold “Uncut” Interview, And More Fun!

Simply can’t resist putting up photos and a quick summary of yet another interesting weekend. Goes to show that playing hard is just as important as working hard! πŸ™‚

So here you have it: this week’s wrap-up…

Friday

After a week spent in Johor Bahru in effort of preparing the upcoming PLRGold5 launch, I went back to the rat hole rented room in PJ, only to be greeted by…

Door Knob Condemned!

… a broken doorknob. And my reaction?

Stunned!

JUST FANTASTIC.

Since I have two left hands when it comes to handiwork, I decided to immediately engage…

MattGyver Ng

Yup, our very own local “MacGvyer” who goes by the name of MattGyver. πŸ™‚ Since I was going to meet up with him for a drink anyway – and discuss Internet Marketing and the PLRGold5 video interview (to be scheduled 2 days later) – I might as well ask him to help me out with the doorknob.

Unfortunately, Matt discovered that the doorknob challenge proved to be beyond his ability. πŸ™ So we did the next smartest thing.

We called in the locksmith and he solved the problem almost instantly! πŸ˜‰

Saturday – Chilling Day

Having spent a large quantity of time in front of the computer since 1496, I decided I need some time out. So I headed to The Curve.

Borders

Borders bookstore was having a sale where a lot of popular titles and bestsellers were being sold at large discounts. Darn, I saw a number of my favorite books in which I have had bought earlier – now being sold at a deep discount. Only if I had waited a little longer. Nevermind.

I decided to have my hair “re-serviced” while I was there.

Eve

That’s Eve Soh over there, servicing other customers. I find it hard to accept that she practically 0wn3d me in Quadro Pop (a mini game in which you can find in the latest Sony Ericsson handphones) as her highest score more than doubled mine. Amazing yet that she actually found the time to play this little game in her own hand phone when she works 29.56 hours a day.

On my way back to Uptown, I stopped by the BU park to see what function was going on – Merdeka special celebration, it seemed.

BU Park

And passing by is my “Friend in Yellow”, Digi dudes. πŸ˜‰


Digi Dude

Realizing that I was walking on empty stomache, I took a detour to McDonald’s for a quick meal.

I couldn’t help but notice that in their tray leaflet and latest promotion “gimmick” called Dip Jack, the character seems to strongly resemble a cheap knock-off from Kisuke Urahara of Bleach Anime fame.

Urahara (inset) Dip Jack

Notice the similarities, Bleach fans? πŸ™‚

Sunday – The PLRGold Video Interview

All right, chilling time’s over. Let’s get down to business, shall we?

Lap Top & Gun

There! What I need to start the day.

Mafia IMer

Lap Top, Shotgun, 9mm Beretta, and a McDonald’s meal – how complete!

Ok, now let’s do that interview I came here for.

Held Hostage!

Don’t tell me this is how we’re going to conduct the Interview.

3 hours later…

This is the FIRST and BEST interview I have ever done on video.

Don’t you agree? πŸ˜‰ Now that I am done, I’m taking these home with me. πŸ˜›

The Toolkit

Until the next time and I’ll keep you posted on my adventures!

Some Quick Updates

Hey!

Lately, I have been busy with numerous projects, marketing experiments and pending Product Launches to handle at hand. I’ll keep you posted every now and then as they draw nearer. πŸ˜‰

In the mean time, in case you haven’t noticed just yet: I made some minor changes to the picture in my blog’s header. I’ve replaced my photo with a caricature of me – there were numerous comments that I looked like some high school kid. LOL

More updates in the pipeline next week! πŸ™‚

WIS Video

Here’s a quick video taken throughout the last World Internet Summit adventure in Singapore.

10 Things I Noticed About The Video

1. 2:30 – 2:18 – Khai looked like he was conducting a typical MLM talk/presentation in front of the crowd.

2. Khai has a generous share of footage in the video.

3. 2:18 – 2:11 – it looked as if I was giving Khai a testimonial following his “MLM talk”.

4. 2:02 – 1:55 – Aurelius Tjin looked dumb-founded.

5. 1:51 – 1:43 – James B Allen and James Brown looked like they were demanding for some kind of compensation.

6. 0:54 – 0:46 – well… we hardly hang around in the seminar event itself throughout the 4 day duration. (so much for the reservations)

7. 0:24 – John Childer’s pose resembled Bobby Lashley’s trademark entrance, a Wrestling Superstar from WWE.

8. 0:21 – 0:18 – the WIS speakers were trying to do something weird on stage!

9. 0:16 – There’s “na na na na na” written all over the presentation slide in the background.

10. Ladan, the camera girl, has only 2-3 seconds worth of air time!
