Huang Kejian at this time the Chinese Embassy in Russia are Moscow's auditorium. "Although I have not tears, but really at heart a twinkle in his tears," said Huang Kejian. Multimedia presentation as the Beijing Olympic Committee chief planner, as the Chinese in America, Mr. Huang Kejian patriotic dedication finally paid off.
However, the "Beijing Olympic Committee, Planning Director multimedia presentation" The job is only "temporary grasping poor," Huang Kejian has been obsessed with the characters and their character. General manager of Microsoft China Research and Development Center, said Zhang Xianghui commented: "Probably I never met a man, in dealing with the issue of Chinese characters, the depth of his knowledge, passion high, into the large. Huang Kejian As soon as the word about exultant, even sleeping at meals. every time I chat with him, he had digressed to the subject to the above word. Huang Kejian on computer processing of Chinese characters have made great contributions. "
In 1996, Huang Kejian of the Chinese font has been selected for the U.S. Apple's professional character of its character;
In 1999, Microsoft for its purchase of 12 sets of Office2000 have 10 sets of Chinese characters is a Chinese character word;
Two "escaped" to become more persistent Huang Kejian
May God bless, few minutes later, Huang Kejian miraculously from the water to take out the other side - and only a few head Kepo skin. He soon became a flood hero, became the model for educated youth to rural areas in Hunan Province, "north of Jin, south Huang Kejian," The reputation spread.
After graduating from the National Defense Science, Huang Kejian Railway Institute was assigned back to a teacher. During this period, he led 78 students to graduate to do the character design of the terminal, which laid the foundation of his life's career path - and the characters deal with the ancient Chinese characters and advanced computer technology come together.
In 1986 the New Year, and most Chinese students studying at their own expense, as Huang Kejian working in the restaurant after the completion of a small restaurant just to sit down to eat, suddenly, three robbers broke into the restaurant holding a pistol. "Freeze," "Enough talk, get down!" It's like Feng famous movie "there or be square" in the lens, as the robbers pistol in the Huang Kejian top of the temple. Lying next to him an American couple hands are doing the pressed Huang Kejian, fingernails almost pinch the meat into the Huang Kejian, let him not rash. In the absence of grab how much money the robbers to the restaurant owner's son killed, and rode away.
Originally Huang Kejian just want to learn their own skills and contribute their knowledge, no plans to start a company. However, Huang Kejian academic speaking tour, and found the domestic publishing industry on the PostScript printing language technology is exclusive, so for the modern Chinese life, his patchwork of 200,000 U.S. dollars, was established in 1991 for home printing technology Co., Ltd. Changzhou Chinese.
Reporter: What are the main areas of current font vendors?
Reporter: Is it because the field of artistic character stronger, more small isolated areas, so in this field, Chinese stood out?
Huang Kejian: font industry is not functioning very good business model, foreign, too. Adobe started the company with character, and finally developed by PHOTOSHOP software, Acrobat software to sell up. Font is too easy to copy, and it is like water, air, as without it no, no it is only found when discovered its existence. A computer, you can not have this software, you can not the software, but could not do without font software. Can be said that character is the soul of the computer.
Huang Kejian: This is the secret of our business, we strive hard to bring software into hardware. Chinese font is now selling very expensive, mainly because one will buy. If we are to buy, each accompanied by a set of computers in their favorite character, just admire the same art, then the industry will develop rapidly. The problem is no one to buy now. Nothing in the world is more unfair than this things. Piracy too many fonts on a computer should not do business the most.
Now of course not a loss. I always say, Chinese companies is a truly simple font software to make money to feed his own company. Before 1996, this is the only. Not easy.
The first piece of business is the font industry. We are shy to speak font industry. Industry is very large, income is very small. There is no greater than the font of an industry to industry, software industry depends on the font. Computers are not so big? IT are not so big? Great, but can not do without character. It is as ubiquitous as air. However, due to the characteristics of the industry itself, or because of unfair competition, making font vendors did not receive the deserved rewards.
Reporter: The three biggest business what piece?
Huang Kejian: good question. If the former, then the tolerance on the computer, this will never happen on the TV. Why do we use the computer? Because he is your tool. It will not be too critical tool, because he help you. So forgive its many shortcomings. However, if a TV, PDA, as the last reading interface, people's patience will be greatly decreased. Therefore, the text display is very important, but do not solve this problem. Chinese has always been the goal is: to make life a little better, so that product a little better.
I think that software is not a technology product, but a human product, contains a wealth of social factors. For decades, computer technology has been out of simple algorithms for scientific computing, the shackles, the software is no longer a purely functional way of technology. As application's continuous extension of computer technology has evolved into its own law of development of computer science, a growing number of human factors is gradually reflected in the software products.
Software development should not only by the programmer of a class of people to complete
Interview Huang Kejian, is a difficult intellectual test. This aspect of life from Mr Wong's rich resume - two "escaped", the first batch of students studying abroad at their own expense, "returnees" not yet born when the word was on the returnees (1990), and he associated with many prominent figures; the other hand, profound knowledge comes from Mr. Huang systems - from the most modern IT technology to the Chinese traditional culture, from the Beijing 2008 Olympic Games to the image compression and transmission technology; another reason is that Mr. Huang's amazing sincerity - he never exalt yourself, what is what, so that's not the usual language of news reports. "I do what it should do, to do their own thing within its power. And actually do a good job they should do every thing." This is a great truth, he said. This set of liberal arts knowledge and science and engineering knowledge in a vast scholarly businessman in him you can not catch his breath merchants. Chinese company was founded ten years, more than 100 employees, but has never been one to dismiss staff, which is a Sino-US joint-venture Chinese Huang Kejian company.
Huang Kejian obsessed character in the industry for all to see. Playwright Munefuku first said: "This man, look at his appearance, he is not very unassuming, he was very quiet. But he's the kind of inner passion, this kind of tension you can see. It contains the heat, including heart , energy, power is no small one. "In order to better see Chinese character, Huang Kejian in the Chinese company to win over a large number of national treasures of Chinese font designer: Qian Hui-Ming Hsieh Pei-yuan, Xu Xuecheng, this week was so. Another earthquake of the money has passed away, Chen Guian, Zhang sound ... ...
Before and after the interview with Huang Kejian's three times, finishing up recording more than 30,000 words written. Even so, condensed into thousands of current words in this article, is still difficult to accurately depict Mr. Huang Kejian and the Chinese company's overall picture. History is piled up past the text. So be it.
