Godly friendship with Hirano Atsuka

Friends who know me know that I love reading. But it was by chance that I learned from Facebook that Enryu Publishing had obtained authorization to launch Hirano Atsushi([Hirano Atsushi] in late June Carl](https://www.carlbusinessschool.com/)) wrote “[Breaking through the Stratosphere of Social Networking: Use yourself as a platform to build an effective network](https://www.books.com.tw/exep/assp. php/vista/products/0010825375?utm_source=vista&utm_medium=ap-books&utm_content=recommend&utm_campaign=ap-201907)》.

Although I don’t know Carlatsushihirano, I have read several of his books many years ago, such as “[Harvard Business School Lecturer Teaches You Unbeatable Self-Management Techniques]” (https:// www.books.com.tw/exep/assp.php/vista/products/0010488149?utm_source=vista&utm_medium=ap-books&utm_content=reco mmend&utm_campaign=ap-201907)” and “[New Platform Thinking: Effortless thinking skills that exceed hundreds of times the results](https://www.books.com.tw/exep/assp.php/vista/product s/0010520965?utm_source=vista&utm_medium=ap-books&utm_content=recommend&utm_campaign=ap-201907)” and other books left a deep impression on me. Although we have never met, we feel that we have been friends for a long time, so when I heard that his new book was published in Taiwan, I couldn’t help but feel a little expectant and excited…

Later, when I saw this book in Sanmin Bookstore, I honestly felt it was a pity. After reading through it, I couldn’t help but sigh slightly - it’s not that this book is bad, but I feel that it should be better in terms of marketing, packaging and content translation! I even jokingly complained to my friend who worked at Yuanliu, “Why didn’t you ask me to write a recommendation?”

Having said that, maybe it is because I like this author and this subject very much that I hope more people will like this book.

Japanese writers have always been good at dealing with such themes, especially professionals like [Atsushi Hirano] (https://www.facebook.com/carlatsushihirano/) who have experience in living and working in transnational countries such as Japan and the United States. They are more able to accurately understand today’s social trends. This is why I think he is a very suitable candidate to talk about network management and platform construction.

Decided to hold a book club

Since I don’t have the opportunity to write a recommendation preface for the author that I admire, I keep thinking about how I can also help [this book](https://www.books.com.tw/e xep/assp.php/vista/products/0010825375?utm_source=vista&utm_medium=ap-books&utm_content=recommend&utm_campaign=ap-201907) do what? So, although I don’t know if any friends are interested in [this book](https://www.books.com.tw/exep/assp.php/vista/products/0010825375?utm_source=vista&utm_medium=ap-books &utm_content=recommend&utm_campaign=ap-201907), I decided to read this book at the Vista Book Club in August.

“Breaking through the stratosphere of social networking: Use yourself as a platform to build an effective network” This book is very interesting, but also a bit hard. Because at the beginning, the author cited academic viewpoints to explain the principles of personal connections. After the middle part, he began to share with you how to build a personal network based on his work experience in well-known companies such as Industrial Bank of Japan and NTT Docomo, and even his own journey of starting his own business.

Sharing experience in network management

Reading certain chapters also made me feel sad. In the past, because of my work in the media and Internet industry, I got to know outstanding people from all walks of life, and I would like to thank you all for not being dismissive. Over the years, I have some of my own opinions on Managing Connections. Although I can’t say they are very mature, I am happy to share them with you.

A good friend who is willing to lend a helping hand is better than a lifetime of collecting thousands of business cards. By Vista
