孔先生提及創業對於他是一個方向、一個選擇，然而，孔先生坦誠地提到創業並不容易，它面臨著各種需要克服的挑戰，並從錯誤中學習寶貴經驗。他表示營運一家店舖最重要的是合法合規，亦強調通過在市場上的經驗及洞察力能提高店舖的競爭力，也需要充足的經濟支持以便應對各種營運狀況等。儘管如此，孔先生再次強調，即使讓其再做一次選擇，他仍然會毫不猶豫地選擇這條創業之路。

In recent years, lemon tea has sparked a new wave in the tea beverage market in Macau. The inspiring seminar hosted by Chao Kuang Piu College invited Mr. Kong, the founder of T% Drink, to share his entrepreneurial story.
Mr. Kong believes that entrepreneurship is a path, a choice. However, he candidly acknowledged that entrepreneurship is not easy and comes with various difficulties and challenges. He emphasized the importance of gaining rich experiences to enhance competitiveness in the market, as well as the need to operate a store legally and in compliance with regulations, while also requiring sufficient financial support.
Nevertheless, Mr. Kong reiterated that, given another chance, he would without hesitation choose the entrepreneurial path again. He encouraged participants, including participant, Cindy, a recent graduate, to be courageous in exploring this path and stepping out of their comfort zones. “This seminar has inspired us to think more deeply about their future employment directions. In the current environment, entrepreneurship is indeed a worthy consideration.” Cindy said.
The Inspiring Seminar Series is a CKPC signature program that runs through the semesters since 2017. Professors, scholars, and professionals from different background share their perspectives on a wide range of contemporary topics. It promotes interdisciplinary exchanges and broadens students’ horizons, creating an environment of intellectual growth in both science and humanities and fostering and enhancing students’ competencies in various fields.
