  (缺圖) Alan Kuo, Chief R&D Officer at Gamania :  "We can sense through the matter of fact tone in the article by UNIQLO CEO Tadashi Yanai how he transformed a local clothing shop into a multinational enterprise one step at a time. Unlike the autobiographies of other successful people, the author dedicated many pages to reviewing the failures along the way, as well as how he managed to remain true to his original ideals even as he steered the company through transformation after transformation."    ------------   Abstract Written personally by UNIQLO Founder Tadashi Yanai, the book covers

G!VOICE Recommend：   “Through this book, you could explore the inner world of Ms. Yayoi Kusama, an artist that even the fashion world (see footnote 1) is raving about.

          Zombies are more than just prop to scare people, but an excellent tool for marketing   Zombies are probably the more popular character in recent years, appearing from novels, comics, video games, movies, commercials to TV series.

  Everybody knows that there are three major features of M&M: it only melts in your mouth, not your hands, each package contains different flavors, and each color-coated chocolate has its own personification. M&M’s unique marketing operation is precisely the reason why it stands out among all other brands. Of all the strategies, the most commendable performance lies in its shaping of brand character.    Sweets, unlike 3C products, do not feature on being ‘stronger’, ‘faster’ in technological functions. High-tech products may cause heated discussion and generate much attention merely from their specifications. However, for sweets and snacks, the

  HOLE  IN  ELEVEN     The Japanese ladies who sell matches: こけしマッチ manufacturer    It is alleged that majority of Japanese people have A blood type. The notion implies that they often give off a sense of seriousness and demand for perfection. However, some anti-depressed merchandises mushroomed and brought smiles back to peoples’ faces in recent years. We have to give it to the Japanese: they may seem uptight to the bones, but they’ve got some quirky sense of humor and creativity.    Since the invention of lighter, matches gradually faded out of sight.

Mobile phone makers are increasingly focusing on hardware upgrades rather than functionality. In the rush to introduce faster processors and add more Flash memory, they forget that it's the user experience that decides how practical the new hardware is.  Though the iPhone dominates the smart phone market, once you remove the IOS system the actual hardware is something that any other smart phone maker can put together. What they can't imitate is how user-friendly and intuitive the design of the operating system is. The UI has always been the most easily overlooked part of software design. Smart phones are

Introduction   Game companies have always focused considerable effort on interpreting players' feelings and thoughts regarding their games. Current solutions mostly consist of quantifiable market research methods such as surveys, in-depth interviews, or focus groups. While these methods may extract information about player opinion and satisfaction after playing the game, there are hardly any instinctive tools which allow immediate measurement of player responses during game play. Perhaps psychophysiology, which has been applied in other industries for some years, will provide a suitable method to aid us in correctly interpreting player responses so that we may improve the user experience.

If I could shoot a commercial for this brand, I would shoot it this way..." And then he will ask you in a very serious manner if you think his script is incredible too. These commercial ideas that your friends love so much are often humorous and very "creative". However, "there should be a standard for how good an idea is, and not just an subjective opinion". I personally feel that the key to a good

I don't remember who was it that told me it was best to sell water, if I had to sell anything at all. Why is this? A simple arithmetic equation will show that once you subtract the cost from the price at which bottled water is sold, you end up with a stunning amount of profit. However, everyone wants in on a good deal, which is why there is always a variety of mineral water brands on the shelves of any supermarket or convenience store. But when it comes to which bottle you purchase in the end, the deciding

Director of the GAMANIA Creative Center, Mr. Kuo: "The most important thing about this exhibitions is that not only is each piece aesthetically pleasing when on display, the concept of the art of life has been integrated into each piece to give them functional value.

Unlike regular exhibitions where the pieces are displayed in an emotionless manner, you will feel as if you're at home when you enter this venue. You can view, use, and savor each piece as if

When one is explaining a thought or an idea, sometimes you can encounter a bottleneck where it seems very difficult to explain the core concept behind the idea. Why does its execution have to be carried out this way? Why will it succeed? Why? Why...? This is why I look up to creative directors who know how to present proposals. They have to be as funny and entertaining as Stephen Chow, look as sincere as Tony Leung, and have the ability to convince them of anything. The most important thing is to be able to explain one's thoughts clearly

How does a super-mini town of only 78 residents situated on 1000+ meters high attract people’s attention?    Of course, in this desolately remote town with only a few cows, a church, a hotel and a few dozen senior residence, you wouldn’t expect there to be any topic worthy of notice. However, they cleverly chose the cheapest and most convenient way to link to the world, the social media—Facebook. In less than a month, they have become the subject that has been widely reported in 32 countries thousands of miles away from them, making them the most lively fan
