The reporter not only wanted to interview himself, but also wanted to visit the studio, so the meeting place was naturally the ant colony.
Today's founder is just a small software writer in the IT world. Although the software is popular, it is far from the height of Bill Gates.
He's not qualified to play big when the other party wants to interview.
An hour later, Fang Tian came to the ant colony.
This community, all is an old building, it seems that the magnitude 4 earthquake will all collapse.
Fang Tian got out of the car and looked around. No one was there. The reporter had not yet arrived. He stood downstairs and waited.
Ten minutes later, I haven't seen her.
Fang Tian thought that when he became famous, he had to play big cards. Hold a press conference and let your journalists wait for three or four hours, hehe!
I was just thinking that a girl in red appeared in front of me, looking like a college student who had just come out.
"Excuse me, are you?" the girl in red stood in front of the sky and asked tentatively. She didn't know Fang Tian's real name, just his internet name.
"I'm Mr. K," said the sky, smiling at the girl in red
Unexpectedly, Mr. K was so young. The girl in red showed her press card and said with a smile, "I am a reporter of the Oriental times. My surname is Cai. Nice to interview you! "
With a beautiful smile, she held out her white hand.
He shook hands with her and said with a smile, "do I need to show my ID to prove that I am king?"
"It's said that king is a very special person," Chua said with a smile
The day released her hand, turned around, walked in front, said: "you want to visit the ant nest studio, right, follow me up!"
"Now the interview has begun." Ms. Cai followed Fang Tian with a recording device in her hand: "excuse me, Mr. K, what's your real name?"
"Is this important?" Fang Tian said as he walked up the stairs.
Miss Cai knew that Fang Tian didn't want to reveal her name for the time being, and didn't ask the question. Looking at the old building, she said strangely, "your studio is in this building?"
"Yes, and it's still nine floors."
Miss Cai's eyes opened slightly, a little surprised: "it seems that there is no elevator, right? Don't you feel tired working here? "
Take her up the stairs with you the other day: "look at the computer all day, just exercise."
"Mr. K, you are very bold!" "No wonder your software is so successful in less than a month!" Ms. Cai said
"There is only a small achievement," said Fang Tian modestly
Reporter Cai was very curious: "by the way, Mr. K, why is your studio named ant nest? Does it have a special meaning?"
"You will know when you come up," he said with a smile
Miss Cai followed Fang Tian up to the ninth floor.
She took a breath, looked forward, surprised!
The corridor is narrow, the lighting is extremely poor, very dim, how can I see that it is not an office place?
"This is where you work?" Reporter Cai stared at the sky.
"Well." Walk a few steps forward, take the key, open the iron door of the room, and push it open. "This is where the software was developed."
The room is very narrow, only four or five square meters. Except for a sleeping bed, which is a computer table, the remaining space is less than 2 square meters.
Miss Cai's eyes widened, O mouth, face shocked! "My God, this is where you work?"
Reporter Cai went in, looked around, turned around and accidentally hit Fang Tian. She apologized: "I'm sorry!"
"It doesn't matter." "Do you need to sit down?" he said with a smile
"No." Reporter Cai shook his head: "just stand up and interview like this."
She looked around again: "I finally know why it's called ant nest studio. It's really a small place! It's like an ant colony. "
"Not only that, when it rains, the room will leak. Ha ha!"
“……” Miss Cai was so shocked that she didn't know what to say.
I thought that to develop such excellent software, it should be a team, and the office should be very spacious.
I can't believe it if I didn't see it with my own eyes.
After being shocked, Miss Cai looked at him with great doubts: "why do you choose such a place to work?"
"It's mainly a lack of funds." "This is actually my friend's house," said Fang Tian. It's not just you. I was shocked when I came here! "
Cai did not understand: "even if the funds are insufficient, you do not have to choose here?"
Fang Tian replied with a smile: "I didn't plan to choose here, but I was used to it unconsciously. It's a test for me! "
"Mr. K, you really make me admire you," said Cai. I didn't expect such an excellent product was born in such an environment! "Mentioning this, Fang Tian said with some emotion: "maybe we are extreme. In fact, many it entrepreneurial teams are not much better. Many investors are not optimistic about us, lack of funds, office space is not good
"In order to develop this software, how much money have you invested?" Cai continued
After thinking about it, Fang Tian said, "there are no specific statistics, but there must be more than 200000."
For a studio, investment is not small.
Cai asked, "how do you make money with such a large investment? It seems that your software is still free now?"
It seems very difficult to explain this to people in this era. After thinking for a while, Fang Tian said with a smile, "it's about how to eat soft food. It's a long story."
"Soft food?" Miss Cai was surprised and looked at him strangely.
Day ha ha laughs: "eat the rice that develops software this line, abbreviation eat soft rice!"! This is my habitual use of words! "
Miss Cai smiled and said, "ha ha, Mr. K, you are so funny!"
Cai asked again, "since it's an ant colony, it's not just Mr. K, are you alone?"
Fang Tian nodded and said, "there is another programmer. There are two developers in total."
Today, there are so many things that shocked CAI. Such a powerful application is only made by two people.
"In fact, the software has a certain foundation, and subsequent development is not difficult," said Fang Tian
"To ask a very important question is what I want to know most about this time." Cai looked up at Fang Tian and asked, "Mr. K, why do you think software can achieve such a great success in a short time?"
"Three words." The sky stretched out three fingers and said, "subversive!"
