Chapter 38: Company Concept
"Are you really leaving?" asked in Gao Yuan's office, when Meng Xiaobai handed over the work.
"Of course, can I joke about this kind of thing?" Meng Xiaobai said.
"Yes...... You don't have to be so stubborn!" Gao Yuan said, "Everything that is new has a period of savage growth. ”
"You're right. Meng Xiaobai nodded, "Marx also said that the primitive accumulation of capital is bloody. I'm not a saint and gentleman, and I have to do great things. It's just that I've already had a premonition of a crisis from big data analysis. ”
He continued: "Judging from the feedback from various aspects these days, a considerable number of people have noticed violations in the user agreement and copyright issues of video works. Although we have deleted these complaints, we can't delete the complaints on the official website. ”
"In addition, they don't realize that the risk brought by face replacement technology is far greater than that of ordinary information leakage! Ordinary software, user information leakage, at most to sell you goods, and at worst Internet fraud. However, face replacement will directly and indirectly cause users to face huge property losses, threaten life safety, and lead to career and family crises. ”
"The next time something happens, we won't necessarily be so lucky to solve it. If the gentlemen don't stand under the wall, they are not ready to change, so I have to withdraw first. ”
"Will it be serious?" he said, Gao Yuan was also worried.
"No, it won't. ”
"Then what are you doing when you leave your job?" Gao Yuan asked more.
"Entrepreneurship, of course, I already have an idea. Meng Xiaobai said, jokingly saying to her: "Sister Gao, my company is in urgent need of people, can you think about it?"
"You're still digging me?" Gao Yuan said speechlessly, "I'm not like you, I can leave if I say I can go?" You're right, I'll pay attention." ”
"Okay. Meng Xiaobai said, "Remember to call me, I estimate that in the past year and a half, I am quite short of people!"
"Alright, I hope you can develop better. So one day I'm unemployed, and I can still go to you!" Gao Yuan said with a smile.
"Of course!"
......
"I'll go with you!" When Meng Xiaobai told Gan Huarong the news that he was leaving, Gan Huarong immediately said.
"If I leave, it won't affect your work. Meng Xiaobai said, "I told Mr. Pan that there will be no change in the people I recruit in the short term." ”
"No, you brought me in. You have to go, of course I want to be together!" Gan Huarong's eyes were full of determination.
"Brother, have you thought about it, if you come with me, everything will start again!" Meng Xiaobai emphasized.
"I know, you helped me find this job anyway. If you can use me, then I can't say anything and stay. Gan Huarong raised his glasses, without the slightest remorse.
"Okay! I won't say more!" Meng Xiaobai did not refuse, during this period of time, Gan Huarong's performance has been good, and he still has a lot of potential in technical work, "Let's go together, I believe that you will not regret this decision!"
......
In two days, Meng Xiaobai handed over all the work and officially resigned, and Gan Huarong walked with him.
Gan Huarong was a little confused, he didn't know if the choice he made was right, anyway, his girlfriend at home had already told him, saying that he didn't have a long brain and lost a good job in vain. But Gan Huarong felt that he might not have chosen the wrong choice.
"What are we going to do next?" he asked.
"Of course, it's about opening a company, then designing a product and running it online. Meng Xiaobai said.
"Just the two of us?"
"It's enough at this stage. ”
"So what are we going to do?" asked Gan Huarong, puzzled.
"That's a good question. Meng Xiaobai smiled and said, "Brother, have you ever thought that the knowledge we have in our minds now is a lot of wealth!"
"You mean, intelligent face swapping technology?" Gan Huarong was inspired and continued: "Let's make a new face swap software, and then find someone to invest in it to become bigger and stronger!"
"That's a good idea, but it needs a little bit of revision. Meng Xiaobai was half sure, and then said: "There are enough face swapping software on the market now, ZAI, Baichangxiu, and various beauty cameras. Behind these software, there are big platforms and big capital similar to wolf tooth companies. They have money and channels. ”
"We make a product of its kind, and it's hard to compete with them. After all, with tens of millions of dollars invested a month, we don't have that much money!"
"So what are we going to do?" Gan Huarong was puzzled.
"Make a software that can make money!" Meng Xiaobai smiled mysteriously, he said that starting a business is not an impulse.
A few months ago, at Lelive Broadcasting, he was still very confused and didn't know what to do next. But after these months of learning and growth, Meng Xiaobai feels that he already knows how to do it.
"This is where we have a temporary office. Meng Xiaobai spent money and rented a small office where he could put two computer desks.
Compared to the previous office conditions in the Wolf's Tooth Company, it was quite simple, but the two big men didn't care.
"My plan, in one month, we will develop the software, register the company at the same time, and release the product online. Meng Xiaobai arranged, "Now I'll tell you what I want to do." ”
Gan Huarong straightened his waist and listened carefully.
"A dress-up software can also be called make-up software. Meng Xiaobai said.
"Dress-up, similar to a beauty camera?" Gan Huarong said.
"No, I'm talking about dress-up, not the simple picture effect of BeautyCam. It's a costume change effect achieved by using biometrics and computer intelligence technology!" Meng Xiaobai patiently explained to him.
"For example, we do a variety show that uses face recognition technology to replace the user's image into the video. You expand your mind, if we take this technology a step further. We recognize not only face information, but also body information such as height and skin color. ”
"This information is processed to generate a character model. Then, using computer intelligence, the character model can be dressed up or put on makeup...... In the end, what I want to achieve is that users only need to use our software to try on clothes and makeup online, instead of having to change them themselves!"
"Smart dress-up?" Gan Huarong looked interested, "You mean, the function of this software is equivalent to a smart fitting mirror or makeup mirror?"
"It's pretty much the same, but what we want to do is much more powerful than the so-called smart fitting mirror!" Meng Xiaobai said, "In my opinion, the current stage of smart fitting, or similar dressing software, is not intelligent at all! In this way, the dress-up effect can be the same as the real person, giving users a surprise!"
"And this technology, we already have the foundation. It is to continue the in-depth development of the face replacement technology developed earlier. Meng Xiaobai introduced, "Think about it again, what is the main purpose of this software?"
"If we can achieve the same costume change effect as the real scene...... Gan Huarong thought along his train of thought, "Then it will work wonders when used in e-commerce!"
"That's right!" Meng Xiaobai applauded, "That's my idea! This software can not only be used by users for their own use, but also will become a wonderful e-commerce tool! As long as we can make it, are we afraid that we will not have funds? Those e-commerce platforms will rush to send us money!"
Meng Xiaobai said his real purpose, his biggest difficulty now is not that he has no technology, but that he has no money! According to the current market situation, it is very difficult for a software to make money from users without two or three years. So he didn't want to make money from users first, but to make money from those big companies!
"Do we do it? Biometrics, artificial intelligence, these are ...... the two of us" Gan Huarong felt that although this idea was good, it was a bit unrealistic. This workload cannot be developed by a team of hundreds of people, and it may not be able to be developed!
"With me, I will definitely be able to do it!" Meng Xiaobai said affirmatively.
