"Three digital products three-step life transition": Suguang interest Entrepreneurial model

Suguang, who was born in 1977, has a great body and enjoys cycling and swimming while he works. He so described his life trajectory: because like digital, so bought a computer, when the personal webmaster, started the Internet entrepreneurship, because of contact with smartphones, and into the mobile Internet field. He says his trajectory is closely related to digital products.





's view is similar to that of old, Suguang that "people have hobbies, and the boys are ten crazy about digital products." His first electronic product, purchased at the end of 1998, is an English-language BP machine that he saved for two months. After buying, hang in the waist, tie a metal chain, also deliberately exposed, in retrospect, he felt at that time "very earth".





1999, Suguang bought the first mobile phone in Beijing, Nokia 5160. Mobile phone sales More than 2000 pieces, do the SIM card number will have to spend 1250, and the need for Beijing identity card. He borrowed his girlfriend Beijing classmate's ID card, spent more than 4,000 yuan, finally got a phone to call. He felt that in addition to love, there is vanity in the composition, because it feels cool.





this year, he also had the first computer in his life. At that time a brand-new computer in million yuan, Suguang rose to others eliminated second-hand motherboard, memory, optical drive, floppy drive and other parts saved the host, borrowed money to buy a second-hand display. Because want to surf the internet, and can not afford 56k "cat" (modem), into the Taiwan second-hand 28.8k.





Suguang that he was so impressed by the 1999 that he had completed the "two most memorable things in life": the first cell phone and the first computer. He smiled and said, "At that time, I was a very wet man." ”





However, both events ended in a rather miserable outcome. The computer motherboard was burned in a memory upgrade operation, the second-hand 64MB memory cost more than 800 pieces, and at that time his monthly salary is more than 3,000. For this he "did not sleep for three days, and now the child is the same feeling of illness." And that Nokia 5610, was climbed up the 4 floor thief broken window stolen.





First bucket gold: SMS Alliance





In 2000, Suguang used his first computer, connected to 28.8k of second-hand cat dial-up Internet to build the first website in life "Dunhuang online", which is a tourist theme of personal station, but ultimately did not make money. 2001, he was unwilling to create a company to try E-commerce, selling things on the internet, a year later found less than work to earn more. But in selling a digital camera to know a fellow in Hubei, the fellow told him a message related to the project, asked him whether he would like to join, they hit began to do. 2003 is the SP industry's profiteering era, Suguang rose by the early accumulation of personal web site resources, selling ads to push the agent's SP business, to do the message alliance earned millions of, this is his first bucket of gold.





2003, the 26-year-old Hubei boy Suguang has a car in Beijing.





Three mobile phone, three times entrepreneurial





Suguang said the three major transitions in his life were related to three mobile phones, Motorola P7689, Nokia 7610 and Nexus One.




The narrative of
Suguang back to 2001, "it will be a special fire", he particularly want to "on the way to work on the phone the night before the war." So he bought Motorola P7689, belonging to the earliest WAP Internet mobile phone. Prior to free WAP, mobile internet service only through China Mobile's "mobile Dream Network", the service charged two parts: communications and information Services charges, the former by mobile companies, while the latter by the mobile company for the information provider collection. But on free WAP does not pay the information service fee, thus greatly reduces the user handset Internet expense. But at that time free WAP site less and service rough, often three days to see the game. In 2005, Suguang rose to meet the aspirations of many years ago, into free WAP field.





Those years technical update fast, the policy is also constantly adjusted, in the SMS SP, WAP Business after the end, Suguang rose mood began to low, as if life without a goal. He went to work for a short time, but he had no intention of working after earning money from his job, so he resigned to stay at home. Wife to see his mood is very frustrated, he sent him a let his eyes a bright mobile phone, Nokia 7610. This is the first Symbian version 2 smartphone, at that time sold more than 5,000 yuan. Suguang said the phone to his enthusiasm ignited, he then thought the phone "really good!", because "unexpectedly can install software!" So, he began to visit the big smart phone forums.





At that time, the fire of the two smart phone forum is 3g365 and treasure nest, he more and more like this form of forum, so with the owner of the Treasure Nest forum to talk about acquisitions, "The price is good, 270,000, but the kid back off." And one of the things that happened in 3g365 prompted the birth of Opda. At that time Suguang issued a reward post for help, said who can answer "two SIS file how to pack together" to give who 1000 yuan, a net name Ken's Super moderator answered the question, he gladly paid. So met, froing they became friends, Suguang to Ken said, "Simply you take the lead to make a smartphone forum, I invest." So Suguang is responsible for funds, servers, technical team, Ken to operate, OPDA forum was so born.




After
, OPDA forum gathered a large number of Symbian mobile phone players and Symbian software developers, become "China's first developer gathering Place", a lot of well-known software such as Call Pass are born in Opda. Suguang 2005 full body and mind on the operating OPDA, he said that although there is no app Store, but think "mobile phone application is very funny, think this thing will be very promising."





Suguang said, 2009 to get Nokia at the time of the machine Emperor N97, feeling although good, but can not let his heart. Nexus One, released in 2010, changed his entrepreneurial direction again. At that time, internet investors cai to the project responsible for a Nexus One, when Suguang the mobile phone, he thoroughly had "we do not play Symbian" thinking.





OPDA team began to transform from Symbian to Android, and the core members of the team with interest, by self-study quickly completed transformation, and in 2010, launched an Android optimization master, this is a no need to root system to do process management, garbage file cleaning, boot acceleration, such as the application of optimization operations, and then be innovative factory acquisition.





Suguang The law of recruiting





Suguang said he was not looking for a degree, only to see whether people like it, his team members are almost all from the OPDA forum excavation. "Social recruitment, may recruit famous university graduates, but he does not play mobile phones, because all day churn mobile phone, generally not what good university." "Suguang specifically mentioned the current server leader Xiao Li," he was originally Opda WAP station in charge, high school did not read the run to Beijing to come with me to start a business. He went to school every day playing mobile phone, the teacher said above, he used mobile phone to build WAP station, are all self-study, is a recognized genius.





Talking about the replacement of these years mobile platform, Suguang said anything is "leading 35 years", although the decline of Saipan makes OPDA this once the most popular Saipan forum end, he did not feel any regret. "Symbian does have its drawbacks, signature mechanism, technology threshold and so we are very laborious, but Andro one months can be started, so Symbian died to die." ”





his technical team from Saipan to Android, there is no pressure, this is Suguang feel proud of the place. "Our team is a bunch of people who love to play with mobile phones, so they are willing to figure out that Android has been taught by themselves, and there are three platforms for Symbian, Android and iOS," he said. ”





Suguang says he is now hiring to see what kind of cell phone he is using, and if he is still using Nokia, he probably won't, because "it's old and we're doing something new".





back to play mobile phone and entrepreneurial





Currently, Suguang OPDA team began to switch to the field of Android Brush machine. He thought, "Everyone takes the same thing is not interesting, many people have personalized needs."





He is a continuous entrepreneur, the essence of interest in two parts, one is to do something for themselves, the second is the digital products.





he felt that digital products can achieve the function is often beyond the expectations of people, and players can add their own things, the new deduction, toss, this process makes him very happy.





he thinks with digital products unique fate, otherwise it is difficult to explain his left-handed, eat, write with his left hand, but the first time to touch the mouse with the right hand does not feel awkward. It was a long time before he knew the mouse had "left-handed mode", but he still operated the mouse with his right hand.





at the end of the conversation, Suguang summed up the following paragraph: "Every stage of my life, is a digital product to promote the transformation of my entrepreneurial trajectory and these digital products inseparable." What our company does is not how to analyze it, there is no strict business model. We are all love to play mobile phone people, six or seven backbone has been following me, are OPDA moderators. Because from the heart like, so we will have some unique experience, can always find some different business opportunities.





　　Suguang, with a passionate account of his story with electronics, also confessed that his enthusiasm for the phone was not as high as it was when he was older, "which is terrible for an entrepreneur." But he encourages young people to be more guided by their interests, "when you really do what you want to do, that energy is great." He said, as Li Yuchun sang, "No longer crazy youth will be old."
