Chapter 205: Gathering Talents (Part II)

Huang Yong's vision is very unique in Zhang Wenhao's view, at least, very predictable, if you don't redeem the software package, you don't know what kind of software will be popular in the future, but you can magnify the demand from the computer terminal to the mobile phone, which requires a certain vision and self-confidence.

But his upcoming photography terminator can be regarded as a masterpiece that is several years ahead of the future, but whether this masterpiece can work well now, even Zhang Wenhao himself is not sure, thinking of this, Zhang Wenhao asked Huang Yong: "If I give you a mobile phone camera software that is enough to hit the SLR market in the short term, how far do you think you can operate?" ”

"Hit the mobile phone software in the SLR market?!" Huang Yong looked at Zhang Wenhao in surprise, and thought that he had heard it wrong, and blurted out: "SLR is synonymous with high-end and professional photography, and now is the hottest time, even if the pixel of the mobile phone is high, it is not as good as the general digital camera in the eyes of consumers, let alone SLR?" ”

Zhang Wenhao smiled slightly, Huang Yong was right, SLR is definitely synonymous with professionalism in the field of photography, and the current form of SLR is also very popular, Huang Yong is natural to question his words.

However, the advent of the photography terminator in later generations really hit the international sales of SLR, and it was a big blow, for this reason, the stock prices of many top optical companies in Japan have fallen sharply, the reason is that the current SLR is too deformed.

Zhang Wenhao opened his mouth and asked Huang Yong: "What do you think of the current SLR market?" ”

"Good!" Huang Yong blurted out: "Very good! Now is the golden time for SLR, the previous SLR, in the eyes of ordinary consumers, is too high-end. It's too cumbersome, except for professional photographers and high-end photography enthusiasts, no one will buy this kind of expensive thing, but in recent years, with the continuous price reduction of SLR, with the continuous development of the Internet, people's requirements for the quality of display pictures have improved. Many consumers are considering getting their hands on a DSLR, and many have already done so, and it used to be the world of ordinary digital cameras, especially card machines, but now. If you go to various tourist attractions, almost from young people in their teens and twenties to middle-aged and elderly people in their forties and fifties, almost all of them have a DSLR camera around their necks, and the market is excellent. ”

Zhang Wenhao laughed and said, "That's right! There are too many people who use SLRs now, and there are too many people who are obsessed with SLRs. SLR is no longer synonymous with professionalism, and has become synonymous with B, you see on the street, those who don't even know what the aperture is called, are also holding a single against all kinds of things and shooting wildly. Seven or eight times out of ten the photos taken are not even in focus, but this kind of person has become a fan of SLR purchases, why? ”

"Vanity." Huang Yong smiled faintly and said, "I have long found that the purpose of people chasing SLR is not pure, and most people enjoy it." It's the feeling of holding that professional equipment, not really to take good pictures. ”

Zhang Wenhao nodded and said with a smile: "It's true that the current SLR development is too deformed. After many consumers buy a SLR, they will have strong photography at the beginning and want to shoot their favorite good films, but as time goes by, as the interest continues to fade, the SLR eventually becomes a home decoration and an outdoor decoration, which is probably to say. SLR is placed at home and is an ornament that adds to the style of the home. When you take it out, it becomes an ornament on your hand, no different from sunglasses. ”

Speaking of this, Zhang Wenhao changed his words and said: "SLR also has its bad points, for many ordinary people, this thing is too bulky and cumbersome, many girls will have sore hands after holding for a while, and they don't have a certain understanding of photography, and the effect of shooting with it will not be much stronger than that of ordinary cameras, but the software I want to make is powerful enough to make the eight-million-pixel mobile phone camera shoot photos infinitely close to SLR." ”…,

"How is it possible" Huang Yong thought he had heard a fantasy.

Zhang Wenhao explained with a smile: "Because of its powerful and simple and practical processing function, it can come out with a very good secondary processing effect, although the pixel is not as good as the SLR camera, but the processed mobile phone photos, in the small size of the ratio, the pixel gap can not be highlighted at all, a twenty or thirty million SLR camera to take the original proportion of the photo how big you should know, I ask you, ordinary people, who has such a large size of the display to display these pictures?" And even if there were, who really has a top-notch monitor that clear to that extent? ”

Said, Zhang Wenhao said: "My software, the processed photos, in the case of ensuring the original proportion, ordinary consumers use ordinary visual terminal displays, in pixels, there will be no gap than SLR, after all, when mobile phone pictures and SLR pictures are put on the Internet, the length and width are generally not greater than 1,000 pixels, in this size, the picture effect processed by my software will not be any different from SLR." ”

"What about the shot?" Huang Yong said: "The lens of the SLR camera is its king, not the pixel, ordinary mobile phone camera, even if the pixel is high, the lens cannot have too high parameters, the most important thing is that it can not be optically zoomed, can only simply take pictures, but if you want to come up with a real photographic effect, you still need a DSLR camera to complete." ”

Zhang Wenhao couldn't help but shake his head and smiled, and said: "This depends on the ability of the software itself, for example, the SLR is real, and the software is virtual, do you think that the virtual must not be as good as the actual one?" Most of the effects of those visual blockbusters are virtual, but the actual machine is far from producing this effect. ”

Speaking of this, Zhang Wenhao smiled faintly and said: "This software, although it is impossible to be favored by professionals, but for those ordinary consumers, it is definitely enough, when they find that they don't need to use SLR, just with the help of mobile phones, ordinary people can get the effect of looking infinitely close to SLR, do you think the cumbersome and expensive SLR is still attractive to them?" ”

Huang Yong frowned and asked, "Is there really such a powerful software?" ”

Zhang Wenhao nodded and said, "It's definitely much more powerful than you think, and the core technology part of this software is almost complete." It's a behind-the-scenes development team that I'm working on, and I started this company to make this software work, of course, not like the Meitu App. There are only some markets in the mainland, and we are starting to position ourselves in the global market, and use the Apple Store to quickly promote the expansion of its users in Apple terminals. ”

"Global market?" Huang Yong opened his mouth and asked, "Is it just relying on the Apple Store as a platform?" Now the number of Android users is larger."

Zhang Wenhao nodded. Said: "Let's start with Apple first, because Apple's system is only used on its own terminal machine, and the openness of Android leads to its strong uncontrollability, and if you want to make money, you have to start with Apple." ”

In fact, Zhang Wenhao's subtext was not spoken, if he guessed correctly. Apple is now in a big rage about Facebook's acquisition of Instagram, but this kind of thing, Apple is absolutely impossible to show, but in the future, Apple will pay a lot of money to acquire the photography terminator, and it can also be seen that Apple has been secretly very unhappy with the success of Instagram.

An app that has become popular on its own platform. I didn't have time to start being taken away by Facebook, which is nothing in itself, because most of Apple's software is the product of other companies, but this software is too hot, and Apple later analyzed that if this software was acquired by itself. And if it is only used on the Apple platform, then it is a great boost to the sales of Apple terminals, which sounds a bit ridiculous. Will consumers choose a terminal because of a piece of software? …,

But in fact, consumers do have such a mentality, some consumers will even abandon one brand because of whether it has built-in Bluetooth when buying a laptop, and throw themselves into the arms of another brand, and it doesn't mean much to him at all to bring Bluetooth. He could have spent twenty yuan to buy a mini Bluetooth adapter, which is nothing more than occupying a UBS interface. But that's how strange the psychology of consumers is.

Bluetooth is still replaceable, but the unique software is definitely not replaceable, and after its fire, the influence on consumers will also be great.

Just imagine, what if WeChat was not made by Tencent, but by Apple?

Some people may say that if you can't use WeChat, you can use Momo, you can use Mi Chat, and there are always other dating artifacts on the market.

That's right, but that's on the premise that there are competitors, but the Photography Terminator has no rivals in five years, let alone now?!

Apple has secretly suffered from Instagram's loss, so, since Facebook acquired Instagram, no matter what time period, the photo terminator will emerge, will become the object of Apple's hard work, at that time, Apple is naturally willing to spend a lot of cash to buy this software, after all, Apple has cash on hand that does not know where to spend.

Cashing out is Zhang Wenhao's primary purpose.

He won't bother to run forever for a piece of software, so that although it is possible to get higher returns in the later stage, but the effect is too slow, what he lacks most now is a large amount of start-up capital, and then use this money to do other things, as for good software, he has more in his head.

Huang Yong immediately said: "If there is such a software, I am willing to cut my salary by half to do this position, and do my best to do it." As he spoke, he glanced at Zhang Wenhao with suspicion and said, "I'm afraid that what you say to me is too much." ”

For Huang Yong, his primary purpose has always been not to make money, but to become an excellent operation talent, since it is said that operation, there must be a successful product, the Meitu App is one, but this credit no longer belongs to him, if what Zhang Wenhao said is true, then he has the opportunity to become one of the top operation talents in the industry, or even, not one!

Zhang Wenhao said with a smile at this time: "I won't give you a salary cut, on the contrary, I will calculate your salary from now on, and when the product is really taken out and placed in front of you, you will tell me if you agree." ”

"Is that true?!" Huang Yong didn't expect Zhang Wenhao to have so much confidence, it seems that Zhang Wenhao's expression and attitude don't seem to be joking at all.

Zhang Wenhao nodded slightly and said, "What I said today is absolutely not a lie. ”

Huang Yong immediately stood up, stretched out his hand to Zhang Wenhao, and said excitedly: "Then I will wait for your news, I hope you can keep your word!" I'm waiting to see that absolutely epoch-making software! ”

Zhang Wenhao shook hands with Huang Yong. He smiled faintly and said, "Don't worry, it's definitely beyond your imagination." ”……

In the next two days, Zhang Wenhao recruited three more financial personnel for the company, one accountant and one cashier. A financial director, his company is not involved in large-scale procurement, commissions and rebates and other black-box operations, so Zhang Wenhao is not worried about finance, the accounts of this kind of company are already clear. In addition, there are three people who check and balance each other, and the upfront expenditure is personnel wages and channel development, as long as you always pay attention to the financial situation, you don't have to worry about big financial problems.

In the technical development team, Zhang Wenhao directly recruited a small team from a company specializing in mobile phone readers, and then dug a few more to engage in design, so that he could. The scale of the company is already beginning to take shape. …,

The first department to go to work is technology, after the team is in place, Zhang Wenhao gave specific needs, and wrote out all the development work that needs to be done in the later stage, for those technicians. As long as you do what you want, everything is OK, and when the time comes, you can sneak the core code into it, and as for the core code, he uses a unique algorithm encryption. Others don't talk about plagiarism, and even a glance at it is a dream.

Since the company has people to work, there will be problems such as expenses and salary accounting, attendance, etc. Therefore, the finance and personnel people also followed up and started to work.

Chen Lijun also came to work in the company as scheduled, she was the position of personnel director, and the first thing she did when she came to work was to skillfully buy a few advertising spaces on several major recruitment websites, and then began to advertise the company's recruitment.

Chen Lijun was just a bare-bones commander at the beginning. But her efficiency was really fast, in just five days. She interviewed more than 50 people, and by Friday afternoon, she had identified three candidates for personnel work, two front desk staff, and in addition, she also looked for several suitable assistant directors for Huang Yong, who was coming to the company.

As soon as Zhang Wenhao came up, he gave the technical department a double monthly salary, so that they could start non-stop closed development, and in just one week, the improvement work had been done, just waiting for Zhang Wenhao to nest the core code of the mobile phone software.

In accordance with Zhang Wenhao's requirements, the design department has done a very good job in all kinds of visual design of the software, from the chart logo, to the first interface, who to shoot the interface, and the functional interface, all of which are exquisite.

Now, all the photography functions of the photography terminator have been fully developed, and the rest is that a community-shared function has not yet been launched, this technical requirement is not high, but the requirements for the server are relatively high, the server needs to be constantly set up, and the community must also be developed and closed testing before it can be launched, but it doesn't matter, Zhang Wenhao is ready to launch version 1.0 of the photography terminator first, and it will be on the shelves in the Apple Store first, which also follows the successful route of the photography terminator in later generations.

On Friday afternoon, Zhang Wenhao called Chen Lijun and asked her to inform all employees of the company to work overtime tonight, because tonight she will bring a nested program to the company, complete the nesting in the company, and test the software, but overtime is not for nothing, and every employee can get three days of daily salary as a subsidy.

Although the company's employees have just joined the company for only a week, but because the working environment, human environment and welfare are very satisfactory to them, so even if Zhang Wenhao asks them to work overtime, they have no complaints, not to mention, what they want to do today is the overall test, they have been working overtime for the peripheral work of this software for a week, but no one knows what this software will look like after the core code program is nested in. It's as if everyone has designed the shape of the car, the suspension and safety facilities of the car, the only thing missing is the core power generation and transmission system, whether it is Ferrari or the Geely Beauty Leopard wearing a Ferrari shell, everyone is looking forward to the moment when the mystery is revealed.

Zhang Wenhao informed Huang Yong in advance that he would meet at the company at half past six in the afternoon, and he rushed to the company immediately after school, and he only had two things with him.

A USB flash drive, with a jailbroken iPhone.

After arriving at the company, all the employees finally saw the young boss for the second time, but up and down the company, no one had questioned Zhang Wenhao's ability, first of all, it was when he put forward the requirements for the technical department and directly proposed the solution, the entire technical department of the staff was shocked, they found that the boss is proficient in technology, which they simply cannot match, if he does not directly propose a plan, I am afraid that this work, a week can not be completed at all.

As for several people in the design department, they also highly respect Zhang Wenhao, because they found that Zhang Wenhao's aesthetics are advanced, and the visual awareness is also advanced, and all the design work they do is also Zhang Wenhao's detailed plan to be handed over to them to do. only to find that the visual effect of this software is so good that they can't believe it, and the more they look at it, the more they like it, and the more they look at it, the more flavorful it becomes.

It's a pity that they and the people in the technical department, and Huang Yong, who has not yet officially joined the company, still don't know what kind of essence this software will have, and today, the mystery will be revealed.
