"The next step we're going to enter is the translator and translation software market." Chen Shen gave everyone a bottom first.

The translator is a machine that specializes in providing translation services, its appearance is similar to a mobile phone, according to the model, it has a variety of functions such as voice translation, text translation, picture translation, etc., and the price is generally between a few hundred and three thousand.

In recent years, with the continuous breakthrough of the number of domestic outbound tourists, the development of translation machines in China is very prosperous, and the market size has reached 40 billion last year, and it is expected to exceed 50 billion this year.

It's a big market.

Moreover, the AI translation they are doing now is a complete match with the translator, and brands such as Feixun, Somao, Voice Splitting, and Network Suppression in the industry are also engaged in neural network translation.

The people at the conference table nodded their heads in agreement, and there really was no better path for them at the moment.

Chen Shen looked at Li Jun: "The translation software can be done by those of us who are present, but the translation machine involves a lot of electronic components and needs to be redesigned, and this needs to be studied by a new team." ”

Li Jun immediately said: "We can apply the mature translation machine template on the current market. ”

Translators are just like mobile phones, there are so many basic components that come and go, and there are naturally mature template solutions on the market.

As long as you use these program templates, change the appearance, change the brand, and a translator is born.

Of course, these translators are disassembled and constructed in the same way as other brands.

Regarding Li Jun's suggestion, Chen Shen shook his head: "We can't use the templates on the market, we have to design a better plan by ourselves, and I will also assist in this matter." ”

Although the most important thing for the translator is the translation software rather than the hardware, if the hardware is not good, the effect in terms of voice pickup and other aspects will be very poor, and the user experience is very bad.

Therefore, even if the company's cash flow is tight at present, Chen Shen does not plan to use the general templates on the market.

The edges and corners are a brand and cannot be smashed.

Of course, they don't mean that they have to design all the parts of the translation machine.

That would be a fool in today's industrial society.

They'll use the good and mature modules of other translators, but they're no longer just using the template as a whole.

Chen Shen explained the request to Li Jun, and he immediately said that he understood: "This is not a difficult matter, and I will set up the research team as soon as possible." ”

Speaking of this, Chen Shen let everyone in the conference room disperse, leaving only Li Jun behind.

He asked, "How has the development of Shirasawa images been lately?" ”

Shirasawa Image, which is the name of Shirasawa AI's software in the field of image processing.

Li Jun called up the latest report, projected it onto the big screen and said: "Recently, Bai Ze Image is still in the testing stage, and we have increased the number of accounts for testing, and the number has reached 100,000 accounts, and we will receive a lot of feedback every day." ”

"The users of the software are basically painters and artists, and these people will process at least 30 pictures with Bai Ze images every day, and the average use time is three and a half hours."

"A lot of people are now getting used to our software."

"This result is not bad, and when it is improved, you can consider charging after a while." Chen Shen said.

"That's what I thought, too." Ang Lee said.

Generally speaking, software fees will lose users and the market, but for Bai Ze Image, there is no need to worry about this problem at all.

Because in the current environment, there is no other similar software that can compete with it in the market.

Every function of Bai Ze Image has been involved in other AI software on the market.

Image extraction, auto-coloring......

The potential of AI in these areas has been explored for a long time.

So why didn't those AI software reach the status of today's Shirasawa images in the field of image processing?

Without him, it is because their function is not as good as Bai Ze's at all.

It's a hard wound.

When the quality of your products is not up to standard, no one will come to prostitute even if it is free.

So there is no need to worry about the problems of competitors at all.

In addition, although some people use it to chat, it is essentially a working software, which can greatly increase the work efficiency and speed of a specific group of people.

Just look at the colorists who are now wailing about being unemployed.

After running-in, it has definitely reached a professional level in the industry, and using it is equivalent to hiring a social animal who does not know how to rest and does not need to pay overtime.

And the money spent may not be as good as a month's salary for a social animal.

So what's the reason not to pay?

As for piracy......

Chen Shen and Li Jun have also considered it for a long time.

Every function of Bai Ze Image requires the network to use, which means that every time the user uses it, the status will be detected once.

Once an anomaly is found, the account can be banned immediately, so piracy is impossible at all.

Next, Chen Shen discussed with Li Jun about the improvement space of Bai Ze's image, and tried to make it better.

Later, Chen Shen went to another research center in the center, the Prosthetic Center.

There's also a piece that's nearing completion.

As soon as he entered, he was noticed and taken to the workshop.

Ma Zhen stayed here with the main members of the team, and everyone gathered around, as if they were experimenting.

"Great God, you're here!" As soon as Chen Shen walked in, Ma Zhen just turned around and immediately found him.

"Are you experimenting now?"

"That's right, we're almost complete with our prosthetics!" Ma Zhen was in high spirits.

Chen Shen walked over, only to see that in the middle of the crowd, it was a slightly young boy, at this time, the trouser tube of his left leg was pulled up, revealing the new prosthetic leg developed by Ma Zhen and them, and he said hello quite excitedly when he saw him coming over.

Chen Shen also said hello to him.

"This is our experimental volunteer, Wei Jianyu." Ma Zhen introduced on the side.

"We're doing one last test, and if there are no problems with this test, the prosthesis will be finalized!"

Chen Shen was a little surprised when he heard this, "This speed is a bit fast!" ”

He thought that without his help, Ma Zhen and the others would at least have to wait until the next Lunar New Year, but he didn't expect that the new prosthetic leg would be remade in less than a year.

Ma Zhen laughed: "Now that the company is developing so fast, we can't be too far behind, right?" ”

He turned his head to look at Wei Jianyu: "Wei Jianyu, take two steps and show everyone." ”

"Okay."

Volunteer Wei Jianyu nodded, walked up and down the stairs on the way, and walked up a treadmill dedicated to testing, on which he jogged at a speed of six kilometers per hour.

The whole movement process is very smooth, and it seems that there is no high and low foot phenomenon that ordinary people with leg prostheses have.

"It works great!"

Chen Shen looked at Wei Jianyu's posture of jogging on the treadmill and was very satisfied with the effect of the prosthesis.

Ma Zhen came over and introduced: "This prosthetic shell is made of titanium alloy, wireless brain control, the weight of the whole machine is about 5 kg, but through the flexion support of the knee joint and the motor push of the foot plate, the weight borne by the installer can be reduced when walking, and it feels like only about 3 kg, and at the same time, it is waterproof and the sole of the foot can also be equipped with a rubber anti-slip fine net, and the battery life is ...... eleven hours."

Chen Shen listened to Ma Zhen's narration and already knew more about this prosthetic.

"What do you think is its biggest drawback?" He asked.

Ma Zhen hesitated for a moment and replied: "Probably the cost is too high, and it is estimated that the selling price will reach more than 180,000 yuan before we can return to the cost." ”

For this price, Chen Shen still feels that it is within the acceptable range.

After all, this prosthetic limb was basically independently developed by Ma Zhen and them, unlike the previous Nezha generation, who intervened throughout the whole process, resulting in extremely low research and development costs.

Moreover, just looking at the size of the leg prosthesis, we know that the cost is definitely higher than that of the hand prosthesis.

In addition, leg prostheses are different from hand prostheses in that they do not have any other life and work functions other than walking.

Therefore, after the general person has a leg disability, the requirements for the installation of prosthetics are not high, as long as they can walk, or a wheelchair can also accept it.

It's also destined not to have too many installs, so it doesn't matter if it's a little expensive.

Chen Shen looked at the prosthetic leg on Wei Jianyu's leg and asked, "Have you ever thought about its name?" ”

Ma Zhen was stunned for a moment: "This is really not ......"

In the past year, he has been thinking about work every day even in the shower, and he really hasn't thought about the naming of the prosthesis.

"Then I'll make one." Chen Shen thought for a moment.

"Just call it, Kuafu!"

"Hopefully it will make people chase the sun again!"
