Totally Spies have been me and my sister's favorite show. This was such a unique concept for me and the weapons were so clever as a kid. My most favorite thing in it were their rooms or interior designs! All the beautiful hot pink and furniture. I dreamt to have that kind of room T-T
Also, been loving fusing my stickers into a unique print! They're going to be available soon in the next cons I'm going to!
Only doing some local cons now in our city. Hopefully to reach out soon even if it would just be Manila

ASIA POP COMIC CON 😥
Dahil first day ng APCC 2018 today, AT DI AKO MAKAKAPUNTA this year due to some issues 😭 😭 AHAHHA char. Pero totoo di talaga ako makakapunta. Share ko nalang yung past experiences ko with APCC na napuntahan ko.
Actually 2 years palang naman ako nag pupunta ng comic con. 2016 and 2017. Tapos sabe namin, every year kami pupunta kaso dibaaaa, graduate na adulting, ayan nag wowork na yung iba, si Gabie, tapos may classes pa si Jem, tapos wala sa Manila si Joshua, tapos nasa Canada si Sandip, tapos ako I’m broke AHAHAHAHA. 😂 Nung 2016 lahat kami first time pumunta. Tapos sobrang na overwhelmed kami sa dami ng makikita don. Para kaming mga batang ligaw dun. Tapos ang dami naming nagastos kabibili ng kung anu anong merch. Tas may mga tutorials ng game dun and madaming freebies (at nameet pa namin yung anak ng may ari ng Zark’s burger. gwapo beh 😍) 😂 TAPOS HIGHLIGHT NG ARAW KO, NAKITA KO SI NICHOLAS HOULT 😱 !!!! 💕 hahaha pota na starstruck ako beh! Sayang wala akong pic, sungit nung bouncer eh! Tapos super pagod kami talaga kase from opening to closing nandun kami. AHAHAHA ang lala. syempre diba sulit sulitin na dahil may bayad. Theeen, nung 2017 naman, nagulat ako, dahil nakipag partner sila sa Netflix dahil kasagsagan ng kasikatan ng Stranger Things at Riverdale that time. May parang attraction themes sa loob, pero need mo pumila. Alam nyo guys, pumila kami ng 2-3hours para lang makapasok dun sa loob nung may malaking stranger things sa picture AHAHAH pero worth it sobrang sinulit na namin nung pagpasok namin ang tagal namin dun. Madaming rooms kase don. May theme ng Orange is the new Black, Jessica Jones, Riverdale, Stranger Things, at madami pang iba. Tapos ang galing sa Diner yung sa Riverdale ang cute, very retro tas may pa free chocolate shake pa sa loob HAHAHA iba din. Tapos madaming freebies swear, may laptop sticker from netflix, cap, riverdale sticker, etc. Then as usual inubos namin ang oras sa kakalibot sa buong SMX HAHAHAHA tapos habang naglalakad kami, may naririnig ako na foreigner na lalaki nag sasalita sa likod ko, tapos pag harap ko si RAY FISHER pala 😱 ! HAHAHAHA so eto si mayora na starstruck nanaman HAHAHAHA tapos naglakad na sya. edi lakad ulit din ako, tapos biglang may humawi sakin na foreigner, pota hinahawi ako, yun pala nasa likod ko si MILLIE BOBBIE BROWN 😱 hahahaha anuba ano lahat sila sinusundan ako. jokeee hahahaha ayun. wala lang tapos syempre same nung last year madaming pinamili and hanggang closing kami. Comparing sa 2 years APCC ko, obvious naman kung alin yung mas maganda dibaaa. Kase nung 2017 ang dami kong napuntahan talaga. Tho konti yung may game tutorials pero sulit sa Netflix part. So sobrang sad talaga di ako makakapunta ngayon. So by next year DAPAT makapunta na ulit ako. 💕

Hi! Here’s my (late) post about my experience during Asia Pop Comic Con (APCC) 2018 held here at Manila, Philippines. I went to its second day on July 28.
APCC was the very first convention that I’ve ever attended, so I was really hyped for it. It’s safe to say that it definitely didn’t disappoint!
The rest of the post is under the cut. [Warning: It’s really long.]
My brother and I got there at 8 AM, which was two hours early. The APCC staff were really organized and friendly! ☺️
When we got in the con, we went straight to Artgerm. He’s an amazing artist and my brother and I love his work! My brother got a bunch of comic books signed by him while I bought a gorgeous Spider-Gwen print for only ₱500. (That’s around $9.) And he signed it for free!
One of the things I was most looking forward to was the fact that Lan Medina was coming to APCC as well. If you didn’t know, Mr. Medina is the first Filipino artist to be awarded an Eisner for his art on Fables.
Fables is the first comic book series that I adored, and also the series that made me fall in love with comics. I’m super thankful to Mr. Medina for his work and I got him to sign two of my deluxe editions.
I was speechless the entire time I was with Mr. Medina and the only thing I ended up saying was “thank you”. Repeatedly.
The other guest artists included Phil Noto (whose work on Black Widow and Poe Dameron I absolutely love!) and Alex Sinclaire (who was very nice when I asked him to sign some of my brother’s comics).
We went to the Creative Circle next. This is where both local and foreign artists could sell their work and merchandise (and also where I blew most of my money).
Here’s a list of what I bought (photos above):
Brooklyn Nine-Nine print - ₱99 (less than $2) - [I wasn’t able to get the name of the artist but their signature is there in the corner!]
Spider-Verse print by @mai-draws - ₱80 ($1.50)
A bunch of stickers from different artists - ₱25 each (around 50 cents)
Three Avatar: The Last Airbender prints by @punziella - ₱500 - [They’re gorgeous and I absolutely love them!]
Spider-Man: Homecoming poster by Xerx Javier - ₱200 (almost $4) - [He also made the Marvel stickers.]
I was disappointed that I only ended up buying art because I also wanted to buy shirts and plushies but there weren’t any that I liked. 😔
After we had lunch, my brother and I lined up for Hall N by Netflix. We ended up waiting for another two hours but it was no problem because we were able to sit down and just recharge after the morning!
At Hall N, they showed a lot of stuff. Unfortunately, I wasn’t a fan of any of them. 😭
First they brought out the producers of the Godzilla and Castlevania anime. The interview was really interesting! I didn’t get to take any photos, though.
They showed the trailer for Season 2 of Godzilla and, even more exciting, they premiered the trailer for Season 2 of Castlevania! It was the first time they showed it anywhere in the world. I was honestly super amazed and surprised that they premiered it here. No one ever does that.
Next up was for Marvel Defenders. Some of the Luke Cage cast and crew were there and they had an interview that, honestly, I didn’t pay much attention to. 😅 (Sorry to any fans out there!)
After Cage, they brought out Finn Jones for his interview. Then they showed the trailer for Season 2 of Iron Fist. THEN THEY SHOWED THE ENTIRE FIRST EPISODE OF SEASON 2.
It was so wild, guys! NO ONE PREMIERES ANYTHING HERE. NO. ONE. I was so shookt, and I wasn’t even a fan of the show. As much as I could tell, it was really good and you guys will like the second season. 😁
I was so upset that I wasn’t able to go to Hall M by Marvel. It happened on the third day. 😔
I was super hyped about Hall M because I thought they were going to show Captain Marvel footage. Before you went in, you had to sign a Non-Disclosure Agreement, surrender your phone, everything! It was super secretive!
However, some people talked about Hall M on Twitter anyway. @/youresteve said:
“They showed us clips from the shows (iron fist s2 ep1, cloak and dagger, marvel rising), details about games and comics, and a marvel studious 10 year celebration video. they didn’t show us anything from captain marvel or avengers 4.”
Of course, this may be the only stuff that they were allowed to share. We can’t really know for sure.
UPDATE: The account I mentioned protected their tweets... which is... suspicious...??
Anyway, that’s pretty much it! If you stuck around for the whole post, thank you?? I was just rambling, to be honest. But I already can’t wait for next year! ☺️

I went from reluctant leader to ACTM officer!
Kind of a late update but after what seemed like an endless discernment period and an unforgivably rigorous application process (on my part), I’m officially the Ateneo Association for Communications Technology Management’s Associate Vice President for Documentations! And yes, I’m aware that’s a mouthful so from this point on, I am referring to myself as ACTM’s AVP for Docs.
I honestly did not see this coming though: Freshman Angel stuck out like a sore thumb in her home org. In addition to finding all upperclassmen intimidating as I do with anyone born at least a day before me, I felt like I was just… not feeling it most of the time. All I lacked was a button that read “I really wish I weren’t here right now!” pinned to my shirt. It was only when I was a sophomore, familiar with the organization’s events and able to see them up close that I realized that I didn’t remember going through most of them myself. Although I’m pretty sure I was present because it was mandatory for all new members, I don’t recall going to a general assembly, being briefed on the different departments within the org, and especially being taught what our core competency was. I was very content with doing the bare minimum as a Docs Head: going to meetings to take minutes and do registration, nagging at the project heads and point people to submit the necessary requirements for post-documentations, and smiling shyly and saying “I’m ok!” when people asked me how I was.
Although I was much more active in my second year, I never realized I wanted to increase my level of involvement until I went to LEAP, the three-day leadership training seminar in Zambales I raved about in my first semester recap blog post. It was there when I noticed the home aspect that ACTM prides itself on: everybody—regardless of batch and predetermined social circle—bonding in more ways than one, both with and without the influence of alcohol, just having a great time and joking around like they’ve been friends forever. I saw just how much ACTM was investing in me to help me realize that maybe I could be an officer too. Maybe I could contribute to the great culture that makes us so much of a family. But of course, that thought quickly found its way to the backburner the minute we boarded the bus back to Manila.
I never really saw myself as leader material after several failed stints in my old school: I was the secretary who forgot to ask the teacher to sign the attendance sheet, or the vice president that ran out of the classroom first during earthquake drills when I was supposed to be last in line to check if all appliances were off. (In my defense, it was an act of self-preservation.) I didn’t realize it then while I was busy wreaking havoc in every homeroom class I found myself in but when I finally grew up, for the lack of a better term, I came to the conclusion that being put in charge of a group of people would only bring disastrous consequences and I didn’t want anyone involved in that.
Fast forward to several months later: I had an individual consultation with my boss Chelsea, the previous holder of my current position, to help with her plans in running for vice president of our department. Somewhere along the way, she tapped me to fill her shoes—a request that was met with a high-pitched “WEH?” that probably shocked everyone on the third floor of MVP that day. I had been diligently doing my work for two years, she said, just as long as she has so I knew enough about the processes. Back then, I was very preoccupied with two other extracurricular commitments and had plans of joining three more the next school year. My goals and ambitions were all over the place and I guess it reflected in the way I skirted around the topic because she just patted my knee (throwback to the time when physical contact was still acceptable) and told me to think about it. Real hard.
I guess this lockdown period also served as the time for discernment I needed: I weighed the pros and cons, made the necessary trade-offs, and got the insights of those I trusted, mostly by pestering them with uppercase keyboard smashes. I’d think I had a final decision one day then wake up the next, completely changing my stance. It’s not like I didn’t want to serve—I guess I just wasn’t giving myself permission to believe I could. I can’t really pinpoint when it happened but one day, my brain went: “What the heck. What could possibly go wrong?”
—
After making the decision to run, I felt at peace, no longer overthinking about every single thinking that could possibly go wrong, just eager for the day application season would formally start. Well, that is until I received the actual notification from the Ateneo ACTM page that said a Facebook group for all AVP aspirants had been made. I tossed my laptop aside and started yelling, much to the dismay of my mother who was on the receiving end of all this panic. Over the next few days, I would watch the electoral talk that followed, a webinar of sorts that basically gave a rundown of the process we would have to go through should we want to take on the challenge.
One of my requirements was a long-ass form complete with questions about myself, my leadership skills, the department, and the organization. I remember looking through the platforms of the Executive Board applicants during the first wave of elections and saying to myself, “Wow, I hope I don’t have to fill up something that long. I would cry my ass off!” only to find out that I would have to submit almost an exact replica of that and truly enough, cry my ass off. While Noelle, our EVP, was glossing over everything, I took these pictures on my laptop’s photo booth to express my frustration and sent them to my friend Julia, who was also watching via Zoom. I was actually very paranoid that I had my video on during the call and would end up exposing my contorted facial expressions to all 70 people watching the livestream. Thankfully, the universe was merciful enough to be on my side at the time.
Believe me, I wanted to get started with the work the minute the virtual meeting ended: I felt like I needed to so everything wouldn’t pile up and paralyze me on the day of the deadline. But even early on, I was already pretty overwhelmed and I couldn’t bring myself to do anything. So I lay down on my bed for the rest of the night and played Ribs by Lorde on repeat. It was an effective coping mechanism then but I instantly regret it the next day once I realized just how much time I had wasted doing nothing when there was so much to be accomplished.
I answered the introspective questions pretty quickly: thanks to my sense of self-awareness, I was able to identify my strengths and weaknesses well. What I really struggled with was the platform. I couldn’t generate any original ideas that I felt could solve the problems I spotted—I had wondered if I could just copy paste Chelsea’s platform and add comments such as “Same” or “RT” on the side and call it a day. Thankfully, this is what individual consultations were for. I contacted Elise, a co-Docs Head from the previous school year, and Gella, my boss back in freshman year and both were kind enough to bounce ideas off me and give me reassurance that the working drafts I had in my mind were actually worth executing. With their insight (and a lot of ice cream), I was able to finish my application form days before I expected to.
I also wrapped up shooting my platform presentation ahead of schedule. I couldn’t find any decent background at home besides this one cabinet but I failed to notice that part of its door was actually faded until I was already done filming. In an attempt to hide it in a way that still appeared on-brand, I slapped some star and cloud stickers on the video and claimed that it matched my own name. The only obstacle I had to overcome was practicing for my panels.
The fact that my question and answer session with the Executive Board was to held be online instead of in-person given our circumstances was supposed to comfort me somehow. But either way, not knowing which answers were going to be expected of me gave me a great deal of anxiety. To stave off this irrational fear, I prepared a Quizlet with 27 potential questions or points for clarification on one side, and my response on the other, which I rehearsed with just the right amount of uh’s and um’s interspersed to make it look as spontaneous as possible. Maybe my greatest sacrifice though was boycotting any TV shows or movies until I was done presenting because even the most mindless programming could take away precious brain cells needed to retain more important information.
On the day of my actual interview, I was feeling pretty confident. I had gone the extra mile by preparing an hour early and recording videos of myself answering my imaginary questions on my laptop camera. This way, I felt like I was simulating the actual experience. But not even this form of planning could have prepared me for the real deal. I wish I could tell you more about how it went but I was so nervous that I blacked out. I vaguely remember puckering my lips and flashing a peace sign every time I didn’t know the answer to something and had to respond with, “I will look into that if I ever get the position.” I also remember that not a single one out of the 27 questions I had committed to memory was asked.
As expected, I was the most relieved when it was over, I didn’t even feel embarrassed until much later on. I got out of my smart casual attire, slipped into some pajamas, watched a movie, and finished the tub of Coffee Crumble waiting in the freezer as a reward. Two days later, I had received a message from Chelsea asking if she could call me. My friend Iverson had said that results are announced to all applicants via phone call before being released to the public at night. It’s not a clear indicator that I was the one they chose, which was horrifying because who wants to be rejected over the phone? My younger self hated Joe Jonas and what he did to Taylor Swift for precisely this reason!
Thankfully, I was only met with good news. Chelsea had told me that I had been chosen by the Executive Board and I was ACTM’s new AVP for Docs. I hadn’t eaten breakfast at the time despite the fact that it was 10 minutes to noon at the time so it took a while for my nutrient-deprived brain to generate the appropriate reaction. The joy kicked in eventually: I jumped up and down and yelled I’M SO HAPPY so many times once the call ended that the words have started to lose meaning.
Since then, I’ve spent my time familiarizing myself with my roles and responsibilities while getting to know everyone else on the team. I’ve had a video call via Google Meets with the people in my department where we leveled off, got to know one another better, and set our goals for the year as we watched Chelsea eat pasta. Very wholesome! EC Wars was also pretty fun: all eight departments of the organization were head-to-head in different challenges. It kinda reminded me of high school intramurals but with less broken friendships. We had to auction one another a la Unsubtle Syota Searching, make a Tiktok introducing our department, its relevance and the roles of each member (which officially launched my career as the org’s official Kris Aquino impersonator), and had a chaotic game of Bring Me through Facebook Messenger. Yes, it’s possible but not if you’re a PLDT subscriber! I also got put in a group with other members of the EC for an activity where we had to make an IMC campaign for a chosen advocacy. As the Mind Readers (named as such because of the multiple instances we sent the exact same message at the same time), we were assigned to tackle sustainable fashion and I have to say that our finished product was, as Dani Rosales herself would call it, “hot”.
This week, we’re on to the more serious stuff: revising internal procedures, refining platform points, etc etc. The fear caused by my self-doubt is further compounded by our current situation, which is keeping us from performing our tasks the way we envisioned we would. But I am a hundred percent confident that since I’m with the right people and we’re all doing the very best we can, it’s going to be one crazy fulfilling year ahead for all of us. I’m endlessly grateful to ACTM for taking a chance on me! Shoutout, of course, to: (1) Chelsea for serving as the final push I needed to decide that serving this organization is what I wanted to do; (2) all my friends who told me I had nothing to worry about while I was being neurotic and who were the first to congratulate me and say that they told me so; and (3) my parents who listened to my rants even if they were 90% org-related jargon.
Wishing you all love and light,
Angel

DREAMWAVE: Bubble Pods (Review)
"Best-in-Class sound performance to go where you go!"
Ever wanted to carry your music with you in a stylish and cool way? A new bluetooth speaker brand has came in here in the Philippines and introduced the coolest set of speakers I have ever seen!
What caught my eye is their cute BUBBLE POD! The Bubble Pod is the entry level of Dreamwave which is ultra-light with child and outdoor IPX5 protection against water, dust or sand. It is very much handy, fits perfectly on my small hands.
What I love about the BUBBLE POD?
It is very compact with a size of 3.94 x 3.07 x 1.81 inches with 1800 mAh battery on Bluetooth 4.0. It has a staying power of 5 hours in FULL max volume. In the regular playing volume it may last upto 12 hours, which can be very useful in my kind of lifestyle.
(Photo from: www.dreamwaveus.com)
I really like that it comes in 4 colors: BLUE, GREEN, YELLOW and PINK. Oh yes, PINK!!! It's very fun to look at and carry. It has a circular loop as part of the packaging which makes it easy for you to hang anywhere or even slip on your belt so you can have your music literally ANYWHERE!
Having the IPX5 protection, you dont have to worry about it getting wet beside the pool. What is IPX5?
"A speaker with a rating of IPX-5 can withstand water jets from any angle. Imagine spraying your speaker with your garden hose for an extended period of time...yep, an IPX-5 speaker will still be blasting after that. " - MediaBug
So you can bring you Bubble Pods even in the shower. How cool is that?
Sound Quality
I tried it at max volume, and it really delivers good quality sound without cracking unlike other portable bluetooth speakers. You can hear and feel the bass (low frequency) at 40Hz when tested using the Low Frequency Test, which is not bad for a small handy Bluetooth speaker. The high frequencies are very good and audible, so it can really deliver great quality of sound. I also tried flipping one side over on a surface and the sound is still good, although not as loud as when the speaker itself is facing up. But you can still hear the sounds whichever side you listen to, thus the omnidirectional quality (not 100% omnidirectional for me).
Packaging
For the packaging, it is surrounded with a protective rubber for the buttons and plugs. However the flap on the plug might be a bit loose sometimes, so be careful to put it back properly. I don't know how it will stand when it is used for a long time or if exposed to heat / sun. The buttons are not difficult to press and a blue light turns on when the speaker is turned on and blinks when it is connecting or looking for Bluetooth device. It is also covered with metal nets of two layers (outer is black, inner is pink) which protects it from water, dust or sand. It is very durable and handy, it doesn't slip on your hand or pockets due to the rubber.
Bluetooth Connectivity
It's very easy to search for the Bubble Pods, because when you connect your phone it simply says "Bubble Pods". Also when you already had a device connected or paired with your Bubble Pod, it remembers it and connects automatically. When you press the Bluetooth button, the music starts immediately where you left it, in my case that's on my Spotify Playlist.
Specifications
5W Performance Speaker (Best-in-Class)
1-3/4 inch Dipole Speaker
IPX5 Water/Dust/Sand/Snow Protection
Bluetooth CSR 4.0 + EDR, A2DP AVRCP, APTX
1,800mAh Rechargeable Battery
Play time: Up to 12 Hours (5 Hours Max Volume, Full Bass Status)
Hands Free Calling and NFC Ready
360° Omnidirectional Sound Processor (One side is still stronger than the other)
Hi-Fi Sound and Anti-Distortion Circuitry
Multi-Colors: Baby Blue, Bubblegum Pink, Jolly Green, Sunshine Yellow
What's in the box?
Bubble Pod
User's Manual
USB to Micro USB charger cable
3.5mm Auxiliary Cable
Warranty Card
Dreamwave Sticker
Price
I'm having so much fun with my Dreamwave Bubble Pod, because the battery and playtime lasts long at its very durable and handy. Foir its price of Php 2,400, it's definitely worth it. Indeed it's the Best-In-Class sound performance wherever you go!
VERDICT
PROS:
Durable packaging
Long playtime
Good bass quality
At max volume, you can hear sound at full quality
Great color selection
Size is perfect for the pocket
The circular/loop handle is good so you can hang it anywhere
Quick charging
Water / Splash resistant ;) Tried it in the shower
CONS:
Semi omnidirectional (not 100%, maybe 90-95%)
The rubber on the plug may loose a bit (you need to make sure you attach it well after plugging)
Hands free calling is OK, but sometimes the microphone is not so sensitive. You have to use it very closely.
RATING: 4.3/5
Packaging - 4.5/5
Quality - 4.5/5
Staying Power - 5/5
Availability - 3/5 (looking forward for more stores to carry this brand, but hey, you can order it online!)
Price - 4.5/5
Will I buy it again / recommend it? YES! ~ it's a great gift idea as well. Definitely for music lovers on the go!

CEO Min-Liang Tan - tỷ phú nghiện game, bỏ học để lập Razer
Marketing Advisor đã viết bài trên http://cuocsongso24h.com/ceo-min-liang-tan-ty-phu-nghie%cc%a3n-game-bo-hoc-de-lap-razer/
CEO Min-Liang Tan - tỷ phú nghiện game, bỏ học để lập Razer
Sinh ra trong gia đình châu Á truyền thống, Min-Liang Tan (5/11/1977) được bố mẹ định sẵn là trở thành luật sư. "Mẹ tôi nói rằng tôi nên trở thành bác sỹ hoặc luật sư vì chị gái tôi là bác sỹ. Một người chị khác cũng là luật sư và anh trai tôi là bác sỹ y khoa lâm sàng rất được kính trọng", CEO Min-Liang Tan chia sẻ trong cuộc phỏng vấn với CNBC.
Do vậy, Min-Liang Tan không dám nói với cha mẹ mình khi bắt đầu khởi nghiệp với lĩnh vực sản xuất phụ kiện chơi game. "Tôi sẽ thành lập Razer. Nếu cha mẹ phát hiện ra, dù họ có thể không mấy vui vẻ khi tôi tự ý quyết định thay đổi nghề nghiệp nhưng tôi tin họ vẫn ủng hộ tôi", Tan nói.
Ông chủ Razer đầu tư rất nhiều vào eSport.
Bỏ học luật vì mê game, lập công ty Razer
Chơi game luôn là niềm đam mê của Tan, "Giống như bất kỳ đứa trẻ nghiện game nào khác, tôi đã ôm lấy chiếc máy tính cả ngày, chơi trò chơi trên máy tính bất cứ lúc nào có thể. Thậm chí, bố mẹ từng la mắng tôi rất nhiều lần vì tôi chơi game quá nhiều. Nhưng tôi cảm thấy rất vui, niềm đam mê với game của tôi là không thể thay đổi", vị CEO 41 tuổi tâm sự.
Quay lại quá khứ, người bạn chơi game đầu tiên cùng với Tan chính là anh trai Min-Han Tan. Họ đã chơi các game từ thập niên 1980 như Rescue Raiders, Prince of Persia và Castle Wolfenstein. Họ phải sử dụng nước đá làm mát máy tính Apple II để tránh việc bố mẹ phát hiện.
Niềm đam mê ấy kéo dài đến khi Tan học luật tại Đại học Quốc gia Singapore. Năm 1998, Tan gặp người đồng sáng lập Robert Krakoff (lúc ấy đã ngoài 60 tuổi) khi chơi game bắn súng góc nhìn thứ nhất Quake. Một năm sau, 2 người họ đã tạo ra chuột chơi game đầu tiên trên thế giới. Nó giúp họ chơi tốt đến mức bị cấm khỏi máy chủ game vì nghi ngờ gian lận.
Ông cùng người bạn tạo ra mẫu chuột chơi game giúp game thủ tăng hiệu suất khi chơi Quake.
Vào năm 2005, Min-Liang Tan bỏ học. Ông cùng Robert Krakoff xây dựng công ty chuyên về thiết bị cho game thủ với tên gọi Razer. Họ đặt trụ sở tại Singapore và San Diego, California.
CEO Razer hiện phân chia thời gian làm việc giữa các trụ sở Singapore, San Francisco và Hong Kong. Mặc dù phải giám sát đội ngũ nhân viên lên đến 1.500 người nhưng vị CEO này vẫn dành cả đêm để chơi các game bắn súng sinh tồn như PUBG và Apex Legends.
Vào năm 2017, Tan đã chọn niêm yết cổ phiếu công ty tại Hong Kong thay vì Singapore. Ông huy động được hơn 500 triệu USD và điều này giúp Tan trở thành một trong những người Singapore tự lập giàu nhất ở tuổi 40.
Theo số liệu của SCMP, vào năm 2018, Razer có mức tăng doanh thu hàng năm khoảng 38%, tương đương 712 triệu USD. Công ty đã thu hẹp khoản lỗ ròng của mình xuống 97 triệu USD từ 164 triệu USD trong năm 2017.
Điều hành công ty như chơi game chiến thuật
"Tôi đang điều hành công ty giống như trò chơi RTS (chiến thuật thời gian thực. Nó giống như việc chơi game StarCraft hay Age of Empires, gamer sẽ phân bổ tài nguyên, xây dựng căn cứ và tập hợp quân đội. Bạn có tạo thêm sản phẩm cho phân khúc game di động không? Tất nhiên, làm sao chúng ta có thể bỏ qua các cơ hội đó", Tan chia sẻ.
"Nhắc đến chơi game, nhiều người thường nghĩ đối tượng là những cậu thiếu niên sống trong tầng hầm cùng cha mẹ, chơi game cả ngày, không chăm sóc bản thân. Nhưng bạn biết đấy, hiện nay khoảng một nửa số game thủ là nữ. Độ tuổi người chơi game cũng đã thay đổi, có game thủ già và cũng có game thủ trẻ.
Bởi vì ngày nay, chơi game thực sự là hình thức giải trí độc đáo mà mọi người dễ dàng tiếp cận. Từ điện thoại thông minh, máy tính bảng đến PC", CEO Min-Liang Tan đánh giá mục tiêu và đối tượng phát triển.
Do đó, Tan tích cực tham gia vào việc thiết kế các sản phẩm Razer. Có thể kể đến việc Tan chọn màu hồng cho dòng Razer Quartz nhắm vào các game thủ nữ. CEO Razer cũng tự tay thiết kế lại sticker "rắn xanh" cho thật chi tiết.
Tan có tầm nhìn xa khi hợp tác với Tencent. Việc này giúp người dùng của gã khổng lồ gaming Trung Quốc này có thể mua hàng bằng tiền ảo Razer và giúp công ty có thêm nhiều khách hàng tiềm năng.
Hơn nữa, Tan cho biết ông sẽ tập trung vào việc phát triển Razer từ nhà sản xuất phần cứng thành hệ sinh thái cho game thủ bằng cách tung nhiều sản phẩm cộp mác "rắn xanh" như tiền kỹ thuật số Silver, phần mềm quản lý Synapse…
Ghét Tim Cook và Jack Dorsey, thân thiện với fan
Nói chính xác hơn, Min-Liang Tan ghét thói quen lúc sáng sớm mà CEO của Apple hay Twitter ưa thích như tập gym, yoga, chạy bộ và thiền.
Có nhiều CEO công nghệ thức d���y lúc 5h sáng, họ ngồi thiền và sau đó chạy bộ. "Tôi ghét tất cả những CEO đó. Tôi không thể làm được như vậy", ông Tan nói.
Tất nhiên, giống mọi nhân viên văn phòng khác, Min-Liang Tan thức dậy lúc 8h sáng, kiểm tra email và đi đến công ty. Buổi trưa, vị CEO này dùng bữa tại nơi làm việc. Gần như trong suốt 10 năm, Tan ăn cùng một loại mì hoặc bánh sandwich từ cửa hàng gần văn phòng tại Singapore và Mỹ.
Theo Edwin Chan, người bạn thời thơ ấu của Tan và Giám đốc tài chính của Razer, một trong những điều khiến vị CEO này duy trì được sức hút với người hâm mộ là anh vẫn đam mê chơi game và mang lại cảm giác gần gũi của một game thủ chứ không phải một tỷ phú.
Năm 2015, tại sự kiện ra mắt ở Manila năm 2015, Tan đã phát pizza miễn phí cho các fan và trò chuyện cởi mở với họ.
Người hâm mộ xăm hình Tan vào chân để bày tỏ tình yêu cho thần tượng.
Một số người hâm mộ còn xăm logo hình ba con rắn của Razer để bày tỏ sự ái mộ. Có người thậm chí còn xăm hình gương mặt của Tan ở chân và được tặng điện thoại Razer.
Có một điểm chung giữa Tan và các CEO công nghệ khác là sự giản di. Vào năm 2014, khi Tan gặp Tổng thống Singapore Tony Tan Keng Yam, ông vẫn xuất hiện trong chiếc áo phông đen và quần jean đặc trưng.
Hiện Min-Liang Tan là một trong những doanh nhân công nghệ cao cấp nhất của Singapore. Sức ảnh hưởng của ông chỉ đứng sau Sim Wong Hoo, người sáng lập Creative Technology, công ty sản xuất thiết bị card âm thanh Sound Blaster.
Mê game, bỏ học luật, game thủ trở thành CEO tỷ phú SCMP đã có cuộc phỏng vấn nhanh vị tỷ phú trẻ tuổi mê game này.
