Ko te Whakaaetanga Tuatahi (AKA BiCi) he pahikara mohio me te hangarau hangarau hei tuku i a koe ki te wai huri noa i nga pukoro o to Huffy. I roto i etahi atu o nga ahuatanga, ko nga mea papai kei roto ko nga kaitautoko-a-roto e aru ana i to tatauranga pahikara kia noho pukumahi to 'tangata whai kiko' i te wa o to huarahi ki te whare o te kuia.
Hangaia e AOAO Studio, ko te BiCi he tino arotahi ki te whakaranu i te hoahoa pai me nga mahi rangatira o te hoahoa paihikara paonea. Ko te kaihoahoa o te BiCi, ko Minchen Jiang, kei te rapu putea hei kawe mai i te pahikara hei hanga, i whai waahi maatau ki te korero ki a ia mo te kaupapa i ahu mai ai te wairua, he aha nga taputapu i whakamahia e ia me pehea e taea ai e koe.
SS – He aha te mea i whakahihiko i a koe ki te waihanga i te kaupapa?
MJ – He pakihi ipurangi noa iho a AOAO Studio i mua. I pai ki ō mātou mema te eke pahikara i ō mātou wā waatea, ā, ko te mea nui ake, i whakapono mātou ka whakakapia haeretia ngā pahikara tuku iho e ngā pahikara atamai, pērā i ngā waea pūkoro i ngā tau tekau kua hipa. I hiahia mātou ki te whai wāhi atu ki tēnei, nō reira ka tīmata mātou ki te whakaaro ki te rapu, ki te whakawhanake rānei i tētahi maramara hei mea nui mō te wā e haere ake nei o ngā pahikara atamai. I kōrero mātou ki ētahi kaihanga pahikara, engari i tino tupato rātou, ā, kāore i hiahia ki te mahi tahi, ki te kōrero rānei mō te whakaaro. I reira mātou i whakaaro ai – he aha e kore ai mātou e hanga i tā mātou ake? Ā, ka tīmata mātou ki te mahi. Nā te mea kei Shanghai mātou e noho ana, he tāone e whakaaetia ana ngā waka e noho tonu ana, i whakaaro hoki mātou ko tā mātou pahikara atamai o te reanga tuatahi te pahikara pai rawa atu mō te haereere. Ko tā mātou tumanako ka akiaki a BiCi i te tini me te mano kia hoki mai ki tēnei momo whiringa pai mō te taiao.
SS – He aha te kōrero kei muri i te BiCi?
MJ – He porangi pahikara tātou katoa. I whakarērea e tā mātou Tumu Whakahaere Matua tētahi mahi whai hua i Rānana hei kaihanga pahikara. He kaiwhakarite kaupapa tā mātou Tumu Whakahaere Matua, e waru tau te wheako ki te waehere me te 50,000 kiromita te roa o te pahikara i muri i a ia. Nā tā mātou kaiwhakahaere hokohoko me te mekameka tuku i whakahaere tētahi toa pahikara ipurangi nui, ā, nō te kamupene auaha me te hoahoa o te ao a Frog Design ā mātou kaihoahoa, ā, i uru mai tā mātou Tumu Whakahaere Matua (CPA) ki a mātou i Silicon Valley. Kua whakauruhia te aroha ki te hangarau, ki te ataahua me te taketake ki roto i ō mātou ira. Ā, he mea nui ake, he hunga hihiri pahikara, he kaipakihi hoki tātou katoa.
SS – He aha te auahatanga matua i roto i te tukanga hanga?
MJ – He mea whakahīhī ki a mātou te whakauru i ngā aratohu GPS ki roto i ngā kakau. He nui ngā tūponotanga o te eke pahikara (me te taraiwa hoki, ki te whakaarohia) i ahu mai i te whakararuraru. Ahakoa te tirotiro noa i tō GPS i a koe e haere ana i te huarahi, ka nui pea hei whakararu i a koe, ā, he tata kore e taea te whakarongo ki ngā tohutohu reo GPS me te hau e pupuhi ana i roto i ō taringa! I hiahia mātou kia māmā ake te whakamahi i te GPS, he mea hanga motuhake mō te kaieke pahikara.
SS – He aha te wero nui rawa atu i pā ki a koe i te whakatinanatanga o te hua?
MJ – Tērā pea kei te ngana ki te whakahaere i tētahi kamupene pūmārō hou mā te whakamahi i tētahi tauira pakihi e pai ake ana mō ngā pūmanawa! He uaua ake te whakawhanake i ngā pūmārō nā te mea he nui ake te utu mō ia wāhanga o te whakamātautau hua me te hoahoa i ngā rauemi tūturu. Engari he pai te uaua – nā te mahi pēnei i āwhina i a mātou ki te penapena i te nui o te wā, ā, i ngāwari ake ai mātou ki te urutau i roto i ngā wāhanga maha o te whakapai ake i te BiCi.
SS – Ka taea e koe te whakamārama mai i ētahi atu kōrero mō te hanga me te take i hangaia ai e koe te BiCi?
MJ – I rapu mātou i te tini o ngā maramara, ā, i whakamātautau hoki i te rahi tino tika, te pakari me te mahi. I te kitenga i tētahi tauira e mahi ana pērā i tā mātou i hiahia ai, ka toro atu ā mātou kaihoahoa ki ngā wheketere muka waro maha ki te whakawhanake i tētahi anga e mahi pai ana ki te ngākau o ā mātou pahikara. He tino uaua te hanga i te pahikara – he maha ngā wāhanga kei reira, engari he uaua te kimi i te ranunga tika, inā koa i te wā e hanga ana mātou i tētahi mea tino rerekē i te pahikara noa. Kāore he huarahi ki te tino mōhio kia whakamātauria rā anō e mātou ngā mea katoa.
SS – He aha ngā taputapu i whakamahia e koe i te whakawhanaketanga o te BiCi?
MJ – I whakamahia e mātou a Sketch me Pro-E mō ngā tuhi, me te 3D-Max mō te whakaahua. I hangaia e mātou he tauira iti me te tānga 3D. I hangaia te tauira anga BiCi i roto i tā mātou wheketere muka waro mahi tahi. He pono, he maha ngā wero i pā mai ki a mātou, pērā i te whakawhanake i te pūnaha rama taunekeneke mō te whakatere, te ārai wai o te maramara BiCi, te waea i roto i te anga me ētahi atu. Ko te raruraru nui ko te hanga i tētahi huinga tino pai o te pūmanawa me te taputapu. He mea miihini ngā pahikara e whakahaerehia ana e te tinana tangata. I muri i tā mātou tāpiri i ngā wāhanga hiko ki roto, me pēhea te mahi tahi me te kore he raruraru? He maha ngā rā (me ētahi pō) e whakamātautau ana, e whakarerekē ana hoki ā mātou kaihangarau ki te whakaoti i tēnei.
Mena kei te miharo koe ki tēnei pahikara pērā i a mātou, pēhia te hononga hei oati ka whiwhi i tētahi o āu ake Pahikara BiCi.
