Everything was developing very well. However, in Dec 7 of 2003, Sayling suddenly died of cerebral hemorrhage in Taipei. People in YSR and Town and Talent Technologies experienced great grief. At the same time, they wondered that whether the project could carry on and would their dreams come true?

Though he was dead, his friends still worked on to fulfill his dream. Dr. Kenny Lin, the CEO of TTT, said that public benefit and business profit were generally viewed as contradictions. But we put our social entrepreneur concept into practice. The first step of "schools leading local economic development" begins with donating computers to impoverished local schools. Subsequently, we assist them in quickly leveraging this into a profitable and successful business model by following the next six steps. For instance, the second step "maximizing e-business" is carried out with the vision of setting up a whole chain of digital centers in western China. Using our platform, these digital centers connect eastern and western China. In this way, e-business promtes sharing of resources between east and west. Making money in this manner thus generates ever increasing benefits for others rather than for us alone.

Dr. Kenny Lin once described Sayling as a seed. Thus, his death is the farewell of a weed. However, his death doesn't mean disappearance, but more seeds existing. They will bring hope to more people in impoverished areas.
