Digital Life (Absolut01) - Chapter 12

[Twelve.]

As a shareware author with considerable experience, Lu Zhenyu still followed the old habit and uploaded the original version of the voice platform to the shared sky.

With the software of the last search machine as a foreshadowing, no one dares to underestimate this low-key and abnormal software author.

The software of the search machine has a dirty name and a simple interface, but its powerful functions are really amazing.

The strange thing is that ordinary software authors will communicate with users after uploading the software, and listen to other people’s opinions as the basis for their own revisions, while Lu Zhenyu, whose online name is Firefur, uploads the software and then reverts to it. It has not appeared until this time, after more than two months, a software package of more than 500 m was uploaded again, with the same simple name, “Voice Platform”.

The moderators of Shared Sky conducted a comprehensive test on the software for the first time.

If the results of the last test were surprising, Lu Zhenyu’s voice platform was shocking.

The uploaded version is simpler than the version demonstrated to Fang Zhiqiang and Su Yunhai that day. It cannot bind users. There is no professional thesaurus and other plug-ins. There are also great restrictions on intelligent learning. In the case that users cannot be bound , the specific pragmatic environment should be carried out through a series of settings.

Compared with the last demonstration, the uploaded version has a tool for users to develop their own plug-ins. Through this tool, you can roughly see the scalability of this platform.

The uploaded version of the voice platform shows that it is a beta version and is still undergoing follow-up development. At present, it is only uploaded to listen to everyone’s opinions.

This software will be automatically uninstalled on January 31, 2006.

After an overnight test by the webmaster and 12 moderators who shared the sky, a long evaluation report titled “Final Fantasy with Chinese Voice” was published.

The report was full of admiration and even reverence for this mysterious software author. After the formal evaluation, several moderators even shouted “firefur, accept me as an apprentice, I want to follow you! “In this case, for a while, the whole shared sky boils.

The webmasters and moderators of the shared sky platform, although their respective levels are not very good, generally have a certain gap with the masters, but as the managers of the largest sharing software platform in China, their job is to read the software every day, The vision is very high, and it is not easy to convince this group of people.

Not long after the software was reprinted on several major websites, the total number of downloads of the software began to gradually become staggering.

If the search machine software is still aimed at people who have a relatively large dependence on network resources, then the scope of application of the voice platform is wider. Although computers are popular, skilled use of input methods is very important for many middle-aged and elderly people. For people, it is still a difficult thing. The special history makes their education forever missing a piece. Pinyin is incomprehensible to them, and they have to memorize various codes of input methods such as Wubi. Also difficult.

Voice input was originally developed to greatly reduce the threshold for computer use. For new people who are proficient in using computers, the speed of sending short messages with thumbs is amazing, not to mention typing on a standard-sized keyboard. ?

A week later, when Lu Zhenyu was still racking his brains for the plan and his unfamiliar business knowledge, the trend of voice platforms has expanded from the professional field to the public media. The title of “Solving the Chinese Voice Digitization Bottleneck” provides a comprehensive overview of this software.

Even many big manufacturers in the field of software and digital services at home and abroad have begun to look for this “great” programmer without thinking, and they have all seen the business opportunities behind this software.

Some unethical companies even started to crack the software. Unfortunately, with the assistance of Xiaoyu,

once the anti-cracking mechanism developed by Lu Zhenyu is attacked, the entire software will be turned into a powerful virus, which will directly start to destroy. hardware.

Although everyone is looking for the mysterious firefur, the only information they can get about Lu Zhenyu is a bank account number and an email address attached to the paid registration system of Lu Zhenyu’s previous work, the search machine.

That email is a free email that doesn’t require real user information.

Check your account?

Banks will not allow the disclosure of user information. What can be traced about that ordinary card account number?

0 is uploaded, and the English version of the search machine is released at the same time, but overseas charges are only charged in US dollars and euros, and they are not converted according to the exchange rate of RMB, but an annual fee of 60 US dollars or 55 euros for each software.

The price of search machines in the European and American markets can almost be called plundering compared to the prices that are approachable to domestic users.

However, no one cares about this now, because in the instructions for uploading the software, Lu Zhenyu said that starting from 14:00 on the 31st, he will listen to everyone’s opinions on the use of search machines and voice platforms in the chat room of the shared sky and follow-up Development advice.

This news was immediately spread by people who were concerned about all aspects of this incident, so that when the time came, when Lu Zhenyu was about to enter the chat room, the chat room was overcrowded, and he himself could not enter.

In the end, under the mediation of the webmaster who shared the sky, an unlimited number of other software authors was used, which is extremely resource-saving chat software, and the use of online identity verification and other means to ensure the normality of this online communication. Expand.

However, Lu Zhenyu’s purpose of understanding the user experience was still not achieved. The entire online chat was still very much like a press conference, and quite a few reporters asked a lot of questions that Lu Zhenyu had never thought about.

Lu Zhenyu had to use very plain language to explain what artificial intelligence is, and explain the structure and principle of this software. Fortunately, the reporter has some basic knowledge of modern Chinese, but he does not need to explain the common sense of linguistics, otherwise, it is true. is over.

Online, Lv Zhenyu said that a company will be established to carry out the commercial development of this software, and he also revealed some follow-up development plans and functions of the full version of the software. Lv Zhenyu also frankly admitted that the full version, due to the common sense library plug-in, will It is very huge, and it is bound to occupy a considerable amount of hard disk space. The current lowest estimate is a 6g hard disk, but this is not a problem for most users due to the increasingly cheap storage costs.

What makes software enthusiasts happy is that the tool that allows users to develop plug-ins by themselves will be further improved. If users are patient and capable, they can develop software that supports dialects, and even invent a language by themselves, as long as you can. Figure out the whole system.

However, the most shocking thing is that Lu Zhenyu finally revealed that this voice platform was developed by himself. Although he received professional guidance from linguistic experts during the development process, the entire software was completed by him alone. of.

This online press conference lasted from 2:00 pm to 9:00 pm. Lu Zhenyu was so hungry that he had a private meeting with a few Bamboo and program enthusiasts.

After making an appointment outside to listen to the real user opinions, I went offline.

Although a lot was said at the press conference, some very key news still did not come to fruition, such as when the software will be put into the market, what is the name of the company operating the software, and so on.

On January 31st, this software will all fail, and this day is eagerly counting down. In this short period of time, many people who have tasted the joy of using computers for the first time have to wait for the software to be in uncertain days. listed on a certain day.

This day also happened to be the day when Su Yunhai read Lu Zhenyu’s plan and started calling Lu Zhenyu everywhere to find someone.

Although Lu Zhenyu’s planning book is generally not perfect, Su Yunhai still sees from the planning book that Lu Zhenyu is indeed a person who is good at learning and has a sharp mind.

Lu Zhenyu, who lacks business knowledge, especially the specific management experience, obviously read a lot of business books and formed his own basic judgment. In just 20 days, he was able to do this. , almost made Su Yunhai call him a genius. Many people who have studied in the School of Management of the Business School for a few years are still in the stage of ignorance.

Su Yunhai was originally an old headhunter, and he has gradually changed from a career consultant to a friend of many people because of his career considerations. Although he doesn’t contact him often, some people are still surprised when they receive his call.

He is not familiar with technical talents, and he can only take out the list first, and let Lu Zhenyu select him first and then contact him. In terms of operations, he is much more familiar.

Su Yunhai first found a 26-year-old marketing expert, Peng Hannian, who is well-known in the field of software sales.

He managed Peng Hannian’s job-hopping last year, but he did not expect that within a year, he would have to persuade him to change his job again. Now Peng Hannian is the marketing director of Sporadic Software Group, and it may not be easy to persuade him to change his job.

“Little Peng Ah, let’s change jobs, I have a very interesting job.”

“Brother Su, what company?” Peng Hannian did not show any resistance to changing jobs. Although he has great power in the marketing of sporadic software, sporadic software itself has no core products, mainly based on localization and agency.

“A company that has just been established has no products yet. If you are willing to change jobs, the boss estimates that it will be a problem whether you can afford your salary in a few months. However, the products under development are the most popular software right now.” Su Yunhai He said with a smile that Peng Hannian’s current annual salary is 6 figures. It is not nonsense to say that Lu Zhenyu can’t afford the salary.

“Voice platform?” Peng Hannian has a deep understanding of the software field. Now, the most popular one can only be the voice platform.

“Yes, how? If you are interested, you can talk to that amazing programmer yourself. I am very optimistic about him. This guy is very capable.”

“Okay, Brother Su, I have confidence in the person you are optimistic about. I’ll hand over my job and resign after I’m done. During the New Year’s Day, arrange for me to meet with that programmer. To be honest, many of the people in our company’s R&D team admire him very much.”

“Okay, I’ll go first . I’ll make an appointment

, I’ll tell you the time and place.”

Su Yunhai didn’t expect that Peng Hannian, a guy who was about to enter the industry, agreed without asking about his income.

This greatly strengthened Su Yunhai’s confidence in continuing to pull people.

In terms of administration, a good manager will greatly improve the management efficiency and smooth operation of the entire company. After thinking about it, Su Yunhai dialed a long distance to Beijing. When a soft female voice came over the phone, Su Yunhai asked “I’m Su Yunhai. Do you still remember me?”

“Brother Su, I haven’t contacted you for a long time.”

“Yingying, are you happy working in Beijing?”

“Generally speaking, it’s not like this with me? God’s feet.”

“Want to go back to Shanghai?” Su Yunhai asked cautiously.

Hang Ying is now a senior assistant in the administration department of a foreign trade company in Beijing.

Hang Ying is a native of Shanghai. As soon as she graduated from college, she got a job in the administration area of a foreign company. Her performance won a very high evaluation from the president of the company’s China region a year later. Her great work.” Most of the people in the company usually don’t realize her existence, Hang Ying, at most, at lunch, they notice this pretty girl who is petite and looks like a high school student. Quietly queue for food.

But she handled a series of trivial matters in the administrative area properly.

The president quit before Hang Ying. The first thing the new president did when he came to the company was layoffs. Hang Ying, who didn’t seem to exist at ordinary times, was laid off. As a result, the efficiency of the company’s administrative department was greatly reduced. Countless complaints from employees.

Only at this time did the new president realize how wrong it was to cut this quiet and beautiful girl.

At this time, Hang Ying went to work in Beijing with her boyfriend.

Not long after, Hang Ying broke up with her boyfriend, but administrative positions, to be honest, are not easy to find. Every company claims to need administrative people, but almost every company’s administration is cronyism. Stayed in Beijing.

The current job is hard to find.

Hang Ying pondered for a while and asked, “Brother Su, do you think it’s a good company and a good job?”

“The new company, after you come here, you will be fully responsible for administrative matters. In terms of income, I don’t think I will treat you badly. You I also know that the people I signed off have basically enough money to spend.”

“Hehe, Brother Su, I have confidence in the job you introduced.”

“Well, you can book a plane ticket, come and meet the boss first. Size. I’ll reimburse you for the airfare. Come over tomorrow.”

“Well, see you tomorrow.”

For now, Lu Zhenyu definitely needs an expert in sales, pricing strategy and negotiation. Not everyone can do this kind of difficult job.

Su Yunhai racked his brains and remembered the name of a problem character.

This person’s name is Lei Tao, a well-known problem person in his 30s. He has been in various companies since he was 20 years old. He has sold almost all kinds of things, from machinery, medicines, health care products, and cosmetics. He has sold everything, all the way to brand services, strategic consultants and other intangible products, and even some more illusory concept products. He is a famous person in the circle.

Lei Tao is a very interesting person and is easy to get along with, but he changes jobs too frequently. Basically, after selling what a company can sell, it is time for him to leave. He is not short of money. Money won’t keep this troubled man alive, but where is a company that develops new products all day long?

However, whether or not he can be retained in the future, for now, in the development stage, if such a person can be pulled over, he will definitely play a key role.

Unexpectedly, Su Yunhai made the call at the right time. Lei Tao had just resigned for less than 6 hours. On December 31, 2 hours before leaving get off work, when the president gave everyone the year-end bonus red envelope, Lei Tao took it with his left hand. The red envelope, it is said that the red envelope is at least one month’s salary, and the right hand handed over the letter of resignation. For a while, the president was stupid.

As soon as he asked him to sell the most popular voice platform now, Lei Tao said okay, and the matter was settled.

Finally, look for a financial officer.

Although Lu Zhenyu’s company does not need a CFO who is very proficient in financial means, Su Yunhai is still very professionally sensitive and decides to find a good person to handle financial matters.

He found an extremely young man who had worked in a bank for a little over a year, Lou Jiaming.

This college student who graduated last year is still struggling in a very low position because of his seniority, but when it comes to ability, compared with his peers, he is really frighteningly strong.

He has 5 financial and accounting certificates of cpa, a, aia, and cfa on his body, and he completed them with first-class results. At the same time, he is even an actuary.

He was born in the northern countryside, loyal and kind, but the northern Han is also a little bloody, and he is very courageous when dealing with troubles.

After explaining the details to Lou Jiaming, Lou Jiaming agreed to come out to meet first, but instead of changing jobs, he had to wait until he met the boss.

For a company, it seems that Lv Zhenyu still lacks work in human resources, but Su Yunhai has decided to persuade Lv Zhenyu to outsource the entire human resources work to Michael Page China. The company’s outsourcing projects will be discounted in price, I believe Lu Zhenyu will not lose face.

Finally heaving a sigh of relief, before Su Yunhai had time to drink chivas regal to relax, the phone rang.

“Brother Su, UU Reading www.sonicmtl.com, I’m Han Liping. Peng Hannian said just now that he was going to sell a voice platform. He said that he was pimped by you. What

‘s the matter?” “What pimp, how did you talk? ?” Su Yunhai feigned anger.

Han Liping is a wrist-level figure. He is the director of Fengchao Group’s digital and electronic product laboratory. He should be regarded as a top-ranking technical master in both software and hardware in the world.

Speaking of his position in the industry, it is similar to Su Yunhai’s position in the field of human resources.

“Some companies have cracked this platform, and as a result, many servers have been destroyed. I’ve been bothering about this for the past few days. All of a sudden, hundreds of high-end servers were sent to the company all over the country, so this is the first time I’ve seen Niu X’s software. There. The boys in our lab are all experts, and no one dares to start with this software. You have to let me meet this person. I will fly to Shanghai tomorrow.”

“Oh, okay, you .

The famous guy, don’t scare other guys.”

“Young guy? How young?”

“19 years old, freshman year of college.”

There was a sudden silence on the other end of the phone, and a foul language popped out for a long time, “…I have to see this The guy is terrible, I rely on it, it is possible that I have lived on a dog for so many years.” Then, touched the ground and hung up the phone.

Su Yunhai smiled, this matter became more and more interesting.
