Following
his success with the introduction of Jidougames,
the Animation Series on 3G mobile platform in 2004, Wong
was able to sign Jidougames with Hong Kong Cable
TV in the Summer of 2006, thus making history in Hong Kong's
Independent TV Animation. This was soon followed by the
winning of the Digital Entertainment (Digital Animation)
Feature Film Gold Award in the HKICT Awards in November
2006. In the same month, Jidougames signed with GMA7,
the second largest terrestrial TV network in The Philippines,
making yet another truly significant break-through in the
history of Hong Kong's Digital Entertainment Industry. All
these remarkable milestones have established Wong's jidou
Limited as a major force in Digital Entertainment, encouraging
him to explore other genres of animation, including the
creation of The Freuds 2012.
Apart from
being a Media Entrepreneur, Wong has also been commended
by many other institutions, increasing his already extensive
list of prizes & awards, both academically and professionally.
In 2006 alone, he has been honored by the Hong Kong Institute
of Architects with the prestigious HKIA Award for his design
of a major industrial project in China and at the same time
selected by the Hong Kong Government as one of the Top 5
Finalists for the International Architectural Competition
of the Hong Kong Design Institute from over 130 entries
worldwide - the only Top Finalist representing Hong Kong,
China. Wong is also a well-known and original writer in
Design, Cinema and Architecture, with his countless articles
published in magazines all across Asia. His publication
in 2005 of "Naked + White" has drawn critical
acclaim in Hong Kong and London.
Born in Hong Kong in the 1960's,
Wong studied in England and graduated from Princeton University,
USA before returning to Asia in the early 90's. In 2001,
he created his own company, jidou
Limited, which focuses on Digital Entertainment. As the
