On August 20, 2007, in Hong Kong, Wu Zun, who was promoted to "Fitness Studio CEO", even though his father was a real estate tycoon in Brunei, lived in a 10,000-square-foot mansion and was in the hotel business, he said "I don't I like to use my father's money!" So he gave up the luxurious life of his second generation ancestors and would rather borrow money from the bank to open a shop and conquer the world with his own hands!

Wu Zun, who once worked as a fitness coach, opened his first fitness room in Brunei's largest shopping mall, The Mall, three years ago, named "Fitness Zone". The second new store also opened last Sunday. It is located in a newly developed shopping mall, Seri Kiulap Mall. The new store occupies 3 floors, which is twice the size of the old store.

I found that there is something to be done in this industry. A healthy life is important to everyone. Individuals are so important, and exercise is indispensable, so I opened my first store three years ago. It turned out to be so popular that it paid back in a short time.”

He has been fond of doing business since he was a child. He is 19 years old! He had started a business in Brunei and opened a coffee shop and billiard room. All the menus were designed by him. Unfortunately, he later sold it to others because he wanted to develop in Taiwan and had no time to take care of it. Asked whether it was because of his father's inheritance that he loved doing business? Wu Zun said with a smile: "I don't even know! Maybe it is! In fact, I really like saving money. I am a person who really wants to enjoy life. I also plan my future life very early, so now I will work hard to make money." , no matter how hard it is, it’s okay, but I have a principle when it comes to investing, that is, I will never do anything I’m not familiar with.”

The store has already recovered its investment, so there is no need to worry too much about business volume. The new store also hopes to recover its investment within 2 to 3 years.
