FACE TO FACE WITH A COMPUTER WHIZKID&CEO（在线收听）

Interviewer: How many hours do you spend on the Internet everyday?

Caesar Peries: I spend about 1 to3 hours on school day working and probably about half an hour just 1)surfing. And on a weekend, I would spend about 2-10 hours working and about two hours surfing or so.

Interviewer: Wow! You know a lot of things. They spend more hours on the Internet than you do! 

Caesar: I try to limit my time. I don't want to get 2)addicted to the Internet.

Interviewer: Try not to be too addicted?

Caesar: Yes.

Interviewer: Why?

Caesar: Oh. It can get to a point where it is too much and actually in the United States it is considered an addiction. I do all of the work.

Interviewer: You do all the design work?

Caesar: Yes, the design, the programming. My father handles the marketing. He markets the company very well actually. And if you go to any major search engine such as Yahoo or Excite, and type in web designing company or an Animation or Macromedia Flash, we will come in the top 10 with his marketing.

Interviewer: And do you know those marketing things?

Caesar: He's teaching me. He is training me for when I'm older actually, so I don't have to be reliant on anybody.

Interviewer: What would you do if people don't treat you as a grown up? If they don't take you seriously, what would you do?

Caesar: I simply let them go. You can't do business with someone who doesn't take you seriously. However, once we got me some smaller clients which is in their medium size clients and larger clients, that's a kind of credibility. And when you have that credibility, the people really take you seriously because there is something to show for that. That would pretty much be it and of course there hate, you get some mail like emails and things like that, from some just average people that they say, you're going to fail, stop taking money from adults who need it, so on and so forth. We just try and ignore them.

Interviewer: Do you like people call you genius?

Caesar: Uh, since I don't like it, I don't like it but I don't hate it either. So that's true. It's OK.

Interviewer: It's just a term.

Caesar: Yeah, it's just a term.

Interviewer: But do you care how people look at you?

Caesar: No, no not really. If you care too much about what people think of you or look at you. I don't think you can live a joyful life.

Interviewer: Then have you ever thought of doing business with China?

Caesar: Of course, that's the main reason we're here. To hopefully make some 3)bids and do business in China, and make some long term relationships with us and Chinese businesses that look to grow bigger, cause currently China, as I mentioned, is not developed to its fullest potential, and some of the smaller companies will grow. And we want to be part of that

采访电脑神童CEO

记者：你每天要花多长时间上网？

恺撒·佩里斯：上学的时候我每天花1到3小时上网工作，用半小时在网上冲浪；周末花2至10小时上网工作，大约2小时上网冲浪。

记者：哇，你懂得很多事情。有人比你上网的时间要长！

恺撒：我总是约束自己，不想在网上花太多的时间。

记者：不想沉迷于此？

恺撒：是的。过犹不及，实际上，在美国这被看作是一种上瘾。我要做所有的工作。

记者：你做所有的工作？

恺撒：是的，设计和编程。爸爸则负责市场营销。他把公司的营销工作做得很出色。如果你到一些主要的搜索引擎，如“雅虎”或“Excute”等，键入“网络设计公司”，或“动画”和“Macromedia Flash”，就会发现我们排在前十位。这多亏了我爸爸的市场营销工作。

记者：你懂营销方面的事情吗？

恺撒：他在教我，为我的未来训练我……长大后我就不必依靠任何人。

记者：如果人们不把你当成人看怎么办？如果他们不认真对待你怎么办？

恺撒：我会放弃他们。你不可能和不尊重你的人共事。我们首先找到一些小客户，然后发展到中等规模的可户，再到大客户，这样为公司建立信誉。只要有了信誉，人们就把你当回事，道理是明摆着的。有例可循。另一方面也遭到嫉妒，我总是收到一些平常人的电子邮件说，你会失败的，不要再收取大人的钱了，大人才要用钱，等等。我们总是置之不理。

记者：你喜欢别人叫你“神童”吗？

恺撒：唔，因为我不喜欢，所以我不喜欢，但我也不讨厌，还行吧。

记者：这只是一种称谓。

恺撒：对，只是一种称谓。

记者：你在乎别人怎样看你吗？

恺撒：不，不在乎。如果你太在意别人怎样看你，那你生活一定不会很开心。

记者：你想过和中国做生意吗？

恺撒：当然想过。这是我们此行的主要目的。想进行一些投标，在中国做贸易，与中国企业建立起长期关系，并不断发展壮大。我所说的现在的中国还没有开发出它最大的潜力，一些小型企业将不断发展，我们就想成为其中之一。
