Diary of a CEO

Artist and Genius

By visiting Fung-Ga musume and browing the exhibition online, I discovered the talent artist Shieng-Chien; take the business card from Lisa, I initative the call and we met yesterday afternoon at Rebar Hotel Cafe'; he prepare one of his art works - multi-media material ( his writing / painting / design / graphic / CD-Rom ). talking with him is a great experience, he worked at Corporate America before, even employeed by Sony Computer Entertainment - develop and design games, an astonishing track records overseas -- Larrie Anderson, Summer lay; even Jay Chew... holding a master degree from Pasadena Institution of Design, a PhD. candidate at Illinoy State University, and he was gradulated from National Taiwan Universtiy majoy in Mechanical Engireening.

Hung hold a sense of " detecting trend " and a good nose for " commercial " it's rare to see an artist who don't againt commercilization; maybe from the training at Sony Computer Entertainment - every figure / action even costume design at the game must have a " Meaning " to gamer -- it melt the wall between commercial and art. I thought he is a very qualified candidate to corporation with, so, without hesitation, I discloved the Side Project idea to him and I illustrate the " Cyber Wooden ship Folk Song Entertainment World to him ", Hung share his idea of Eucatainment to me, he also share with me how he see the Net -- sooner or later, everything on the internet were for " Commercial " - no one will pay online, but it became the powerful media that reach almost all the attention and attraction; I love his idea of capture one's greatest momories and turn it to a proud - truphy alike image to be collected, reprint, the " Custom Make " concept can then develop to his kingdom of desigers. we will see each other next week and identify how we my build up our relationship and launch business together. My rough idea is :
1. assign them to build our web-site ( Side project or the cyber Wooden ship )
2. open on virture graphic reprinting servcie shop ( for the arts and artist he can accomodate )
3. check his software / application funding plan for the edutatinment sector.
4. bring Hung-Yi to the picture for " Best Cotton with qulified artist " and influence on artsit to endose them.
5. industrial design connecting with AJ. if his company really need them.
6. agent and commercilized some of the great graphic / design to other application in physical world.
7. helping in connecting to SBIR project ( Small Business Innovation Reserch ) fund from MOEA.

Helping Kororo access to the Digital Content Apprisial and Loan discussion with MOEA / III, their a long way to go, to review and revise the financial outlook take time before qulified to the loan or support, must find a way to inject captical for them.

Lunch with 2 top agent , 2 new person with old face - Allyza and Cindy -- we have a good lunch, no perticular issue but a casual lunch.

TWIA meeting wasn't a good one, why the Cross-Strait delegation for High Tech required us to donate money with no receipt - this is a blackmail from the legislator, I am not favor in such an approch and consider to quit from the trip. however, as this is my first China trip this year, if I withdraw, it may be deem as under the pressure of Tokyo , and I simply give up my authority to devleop. so beat it, I should go as planned , but not to bear great hope from the trip.

Chat with 2 key person from EZfly and advise them I will not join the company, but to help them reshape to what they are, helping a good friend to conduct an assessment, this is all about friendship and leaning. I release from the dinner and hoping to concede the report by next week.
