Or 3G Zhang Wenhao came to the company, the first thing was to find Chen Tian, the director of the technical department, the entire technical team managed by Chen Tian was almost collectively jumped from the previous company, and Chen Tian himself has always been the leader of this team, so this team just started to work in Zhang Wenhao's Dongchen Technology Development Company, and immediately showed a strong ability to work.

Chen Tian has been waiting for Zhang Wenhao for a long time, he led the team to open up the development day and night this week, but has been doing the external improvement of the software, but the core code he has not been in contact with, until now, he is impatient with this unknown software, eager to see its true face, as soon as he saw Zhang Wenhao come to the company, Chen Tian immediately greeted him, and said: "Mr. Zhang, the technical work on our side has been completed, and the external development and interface design of the program have been completed. Now everyone is waiting for your core code, and everyone is waiting for yù to wear it. ”

Zhang Wenhao smiled slightly and said, "I have already brought the core code." As he spoke, he looked at his watch and said, "Wait a few minutes, the company's future director of operations will arrive, and I would like to hear his evaluation after the completion of version 10 of this software." ”

Chen Tian nodded slightly, and Zhang Wenhao said again: "Lend me your computer, and I'll complete the final core nesting." ”

"Good!" Chen Tian immediately brought Zhang Wenhao to his computer, Zhang Wenhao sat in the office chair, the first thing he did was to put the disk into the computer, and then, he asked Chen Tian to open the development software, in the development software, the external program of the photographic terminator has been completed. Just waiting for Zhang Wenhao to embed the core code.

Zhang Wenhao took matters into his own hands, embedded the core code in the disk into the external program of the software, and then regenerated the entire software, and soon, a program called Photography Terminator IPA appeared on the desktop.

IPA is Apple's software format, and when icons are generated on the desktop, the software that will be available five years later will finally be born.

It's just that. IPA files cannot be opened directly on the computer, and must be installed in the Apple system terminal before they can be used, and the application has not been approved by the Apple Store. It can't be installed on most apples, and the photographic terminator that Zhang Wenhao is currently making can only be used on the jailbroken apples.

Forthwith. Zhang Wenhao connected the jailbroken Apple he brought to the computer, and prepared to install this IPA directly into it through the assistant software.

At this time, Huang Yong arrived as promised.

Zhang Wenhao just clicked the installation button, and when he saw Huang Yong coming, he said with a smile: "Huang Yong, you came just in time, since you have not made up your mind whether to come to Dongchen to work, then I will let you be the first user of this software, after you use it." Tell me if there is a market for this software. ”

Huang Yong nodded slightly, he had been waiting for Zhang Wenhao's phone 97ks, and had been waiting to take a look at the magical and powerful camera software that Zhang Wenhao said, and now, all the mysteries are about to be revealed. Whether this software is as good as Zhang Wenhao said, use it yourself, and you will naturally know.

The total file size of the Photography Terminator is 88MB, which is considered a medium-sized software among photography assistance and image processing software, and slightly larger than software such as the Meitu App. But it's much smaller than bloated software like ipoto.

The software was installed during the conversation between Zhang Wenhao and Huang Yong, and then, Zhang Wenhao unplugged the data cable, handed the cracked Apple to Huang Yong, and said, "You can try it." (Just go there if you're looking for fiction material)"

Huang Yong nodded a little inexplicably, and the first thing he did was to open the software called Photography Terminator.

As soon as you enter the software, the first thing you enter is the shooting page, which is very concise, just in the bottom column, there are several functional options. …,

The first is to shoot special effects.

The general shooting special effects are nothing more than a dozen, but when Huang Yong opened the shooting special effects column of the photography terminator, he found that there were as many as 40 kinds of shooting effects, Huang Yong was a little disdainful in his heart, in his opinion, the camera special effects should not be too much, because most of the special effects are grandstanding, there is no practical and high-quality processing effect at all, and now the shooting special effects, at most and the most commonly used are nothing more than a few, lomo, retro, tilt-shift shooting, black and white, reverse film, etc.

Huang Yong randomly turned on the special effect of a reversal film, and pointed the camera at a few potted plants in the corner of the company.

just chose one at random, but the image on the screen suddenly changed dramatically, just looking at the effect on the screen, Huang Yong was shocked!

The change before and after the screen is so amazing, it used to be the default camera to shoot the initial picture, but after clicking on the reversal effect, the pixels, colors and layers of the screen are immediately highlighted.

This contrast, as if, at the beginning, an ordinary person sang a song that could barely be heard on KTV, but in an instant, the channel was switched to the original song, and the taste and quality of it were instantly highlighted!

"How come" Huang Yong exclaimed, this sound attracted the attention of many employees, and a large number of people ran behind Huang Yong to check the effect of the screen at this time, and a sound of exclamation came.

Immediately, Huang Yong changed to a lomo special effect.

"Oh my God!" Huang Yong couldn't help but sigh to himself: "The picture is too perfect!" I haven't shot yet, but the picture shown on the screen is already quite perfect! ”

Immediately afterwards, Huang Yong tried one special effect after another, which made his shock deeper and deeper, unimaginable! Even though Zhang Wenhao had told himself once before, the excellent effect of this software still made him stunned and incoherent.

"It's so bāng! It's so bāng! Huang Yong said: "There are so many special effects, each of which has extraordinary visual effects, none of which are superfluous, each of them is very classic and has its own unique taste, oh my God, more than 50 powerful special effects, once this software is on the market." It's going to be so good that it will explode! ”

Zhang Wenhao said lightly: "You just watched the shooting special effects, and you haven't seen the next function yet." ”

"What's next?" Huang Yong couldn't help but exit the special effects page, saw the next option, and was surprised to find that this option turned out to be a filter!

Huang Yong, who loves photography, knows that filters use special optical lenses. The processing of light with different effects is basically purely optical principle. Could it be that digital can also be simulated?!

Huang Yong hurriedly clicked on the filter options and found that there were really many filter options in it. [Find novel material] polarizers, grayscale mirrors, gradient lenses, dilution lenses, starlight mirrors, prisms, and so on.

Even Huang Yong, who is a senior photography enthusiast, has never used so many kinds of filters, and after trying them one by one, he found that it is really the same as the impact of using filters on the picture by SLR! At the very least, the rò eyes look pretty much the same!

Huang Yong was dumbfounded, stunned for a long time, and hurriedly opened the third option.

The third option is image processing!

If the shooting special effects just now are pre-production special effects, then the image processing is pure post-production special effects, and the original film needs to be shot first. After post-secondary processing, Huang Yong hurriedly took a close-up photo of the potted greenery, and then entered the image processing options, where there were hundreds of filters and processing effects!

DSLR cameras are most praised for their depth of field. This is achieved through the constant change of focal length, the simplest such as background blur, which is extremely difficult to do, because the camera does not have the function of optical zoom at all, however, software such as light and shadow magician, Meitu and so on. There are post-depth processing functions,But the depth of field processing function is too fake,The only thing it can do,Is to blur the image outside the non-focus,Give people an illusion similar to background bokeh,But this effect can't help careful scrutiny at all,But this software,But this software,It can use pure processing,The background bokeh is vivid! …,

Huang Yong was overjoyed and said excitedly: "Mr. Zhang, once this software comes out, it will definitely be epoch-making!" It's so bāng! It's just perfect! ”

Zhang Wenhao smiled: "You haven't seen other functions yet." ”

Zhang Wenhao said, introduced: "If you shoot according to this process, the first step is to choose the shooting special effects, the second step is to choose the filter used for shooting, and the third part, but also to post-process the picture, such a process is too troublesome and too sleepy, and it is difficult for ordinary people to have such patience, so you click the "fast" button to take a look."

Huang Yong hurriedly clicked on the separate quick button next to it, and found that there were several preset full sets of programs, such as portrait, landscape, sports, night and other modes, just like many digital cameras have these modes to choose from.

Zhang Wenhao said: "This software is very smart, not the kind of single set mode in the digital camera, if you choose a portrait, it will first provide a facial recognition function, the face of the person being photographed is recognized, which is not surprising, but then, it will also have an environment recognition function, in addition to the portrait of the picture is defined as"shooting environment", and then according to the specific environment, to carry out unique processing of the photo, it can automatically calculate the distance between the person and the main background, And it automatically gives a depth of field effect, you can try it. ”

Huang Yong turned on the portrait function and tried it, in order to see the effect, he stood still in one position, and let an NV employee be his shooting model, and the background was a pile of green plants in the corner, so that he did not move, and the background did not move, so he asked the NV employee who was photographed to constantly change his position.

At first, the NV employee stood a little in front of the green plant, which was almost attached to her back, and the software automatically calculated the depth of field, and at this almost negligible distance between the person and the background, the software knew that the photographer wanted to shoot a complete and clear background, so there was no blur of the background.

As the NV employee progressed, so did the distance from the background, and with each step she took, the software quickly calculated the distance between her and the background in a very short period of time, and then immediately adjusted accordingly.

When the NV employee is in the middle of Huang Yong and the background, the effect of background blur is already very significant! And this software can recognize that the entire human body is standing on the same vertical plane, not like other post-production software, just a single point of visual prominence and background blur, it can completely identify the entire human body, so, in this way, the effect is very natural!

"It's amazing!" Huang Yong exclaimed. "This kind of software, just using an 8-megapixel camera, can shoot such excellent results, it is definitely the real terminator in the photography industry!" I think it can be used as a single-lens reflex camera cào system, if the single-lens reflex has this kind of shooting system assistance, I believe everyone can become a professional photographer! ”

Zhang Wenhao nodded. Said: "The core of this kind of intelligent shooting and processing, if you sneak into the SLR camera, and then match the SLR camera with CP and GP." Naturally, you could turn a DSLR into a pre- and post-production vision workstation, but that's not what I'm going to do. Because what I want to do is the market. ”

Huang Yong said: "Mr. Zhang, I am willing to join Dongchen!" I hope you can give me this opportunity! I will definitely do my best to bring this great product to the world! ”

Zhang Wenhao agreed with a smile and said: "In this case, you will officially take office next Monday, and the first thing you will do when you take office is to take this software to Apple, and you must let it go online immediately in a short period of time. That is, the contract must indicate that this software, the cooperation with Apple has no fixed validity period, and we have the right to unilaterally terminate the cooperation at any time, which means that we have developed versions of both Android and Apple platforms at the same time. Let them do the rest for themselves. ”…,

Huang Yong nodded and said, "I'll contact the promotion channels first this weekend, and I and the heads of several well-known Weibo platforms have a certain amount of sījiāo, and when the time comes, I will promote our app to be launched on Weibo as soon as possible, once the Photography Terminator is on the Apple Store." Immediately carry out an overwhelming publicity. ”

Zhang Wenhao opened his mouth and asked, "What is your main propaganda method?" ”

"Soft advertising." Huang Yong said with a smile: "In the early stage, we only need to release the effect of this software as much as possible through Weibo and other platforms, and after attracting the attention of consumers, as long as they download this software and use it once, I think they will love it!" For the rest, word of mouth is enough. ”

Zhang Wenhao said: "Don't think that your products have real materials and ignore the promotion, I will give you 10 million promotion funds in the early stage, and you will operate the entire promotion process yourself, I don't care what you do, I only look at your results." ”

"Good!" Huang Yong immediately nodded and said, "I'll make a detailed promotion plan this weekend!" Next Monday, go to Apple and talk to them about the app's launch. ”

Not only Huang Yong, the whole company is very shocked and pleased with the actual effect of this software, even if they do not have Huang Yong's professional vision, they can also see the epoch-making significance of this software from the actual effect, the design team and technical team of a hard week are even more moving, even if they are not involved in the development of the core content, but as a part of the developer of this product, they are still extremely proud and proud, and they are also extremely optimistic and optimistic about the prospects of this software.

Huang Yong took more than 100 photos in a row, and then used the company's design department mén's 27-inch Apple iMac to view, under the imac's large screen, extremely high resolution, these photos are still extremely colorful, and even, the effect seen on this computer is much better than on the screen!

Huang Yong couldn't help but sigh and said: "These pictures, whatever you send to any post-production master, it is estimated that they will have a common point of view, that is, there is no need for post-processing of these pictures, although there is indeed a hardware gap compared to the effect of professional SLR, but for the vast majority of ordinary consumers, this effect is indeed enough for them to give up the cumbersome and cumbersome SLR." ”

Technical director Chen Tian has been doing software and client for several years, he evaluated it from his own vision, and said: "This software is definitely the benchmark of this year's software market, even if you put aside personal factors, completely objective evaluation, I also think this software is the best software this year!" ”

Saying that, Chen Tian couldn't help but say with great admiration: "Mr. Zhang, where did you invite the core development team under you?" This kind of team is simply the absolute top in the software industry! ”

Zhang Wenhao smiled slightly and said, "The core team needs to be kept secret, so I can't tell anyone yet, but I can assure you a little." ”

"What?" Everyone couldn't help but ask curiously.

Zhang Wenhao said with a smile: "The Photography Terminator is just the beginning, and in the future, more and better software will be gradually developed." ”

Most of the people in the company don't doubt this, after all, it is not difficult for a team that can design and develop this kind of software to design other good software.

Huang Yong opened his mouth and asked: "By the way, Mr. Zhang, how do you think the price of this software is more appropriate once it is launched on the Apple Store?" ”

"There is no charge." Zhang Wenhao said categorically.

Huang Yong nodded and continued: "At the beginning, it is indeed very suitable for rapid expansion to engage in limited-time free. ”

"It's not free for a limited time." Zhang Wenhao said lightly: "It's free forever." ”

"Why?" Huang Yong's eyes widened, and he blurted out: "Such a powerful software, I believe, the price is about 10 yuan, and eighty percent are willing to accept it, after all, it is too cost-effective." ”

Zhang Wenhao asked rhetorically: "Ten yuan once, how much is 100 million times?" ”

"A billion dollars, ah!!" Huang Yong clenched his fists and said: "Sales alone can have 1 billion yuan, and if we have 100 million, we will be able to earn a lot of advertising expenses." ”

Zhang Wenhao shook his head and smiled: "It's only one billion yuan, Apple wants to divide you into 30%, you still have 700 million left, and then there are all kinds of taxes and fees, and finally you get it, not even 100 million US dollars, this money is really not worth mentioning." ”

"Why" Huang Yong couldn't figure it out, 100 million US dollars, a number that scared people to death, Zhang Wenhao actually said that it was not worth mentioning?

Zhang Wenhao smiled and asked rhetorically: "How much did Instagram sell?" ”

In an instant, Huang Yong suddenly realized!
