But how to make money? Is it a free model, or a fee-based model? That's really a problem. Duke scratched his head, the initial test was so successful, and the response was very good.

Even if Duke has a low EQ, he knows that his voice recognition input software is probably destined to end an era, and once it is launched, it will undoubtedly be a very popular mass product, and if you register for a fee, you should be able to make a lot of money?

Even if the software now only supports Chinese and English language input, but these two languages are indeed the largest number of people in the world, according to incomplete statistics, the number of English speakers is more than one-third of the global population, which is more than two billion people, and the number of Chinese does not need to be calculated without suspense more than 1.4 billion, well, even if the number of double counts in both Chinese and English is removed, the total number of the two languages is not too much to count three billion, right?

Three billion, even if the computer penetration rate is only 30 percent, there are nearly one billion users, and the registration fee is cheaper, a software fee of ten yuan, this price is less than a lunch box money is cheap enough, conservatively estimated that one-third of the users with computers choose this software, this potential customer will be hundreds of millions, on the basis of such a terrible customer, then the potential income is more than one billion?

Duke did a little math, and couldn't help but be taken aback by this result, the potential revenue of this software is a little too amazing, right? In this way, can you say that you are already a quasi-billionaire? The word billionaire flashed through poor Duke's mind, and his heart couldn't help but twitch, isn't this too fast?

Not to mention the failure of Chinese education, as an engineering graduate student at a prestigious university, even the imagination of getting rich is imprisoned, and he will be surprised by the idea of becoming a billionaire.

Look at other people's children - Dale decisively dropped out of school at the age of twenty and ran on the road of billionaires, Bill Gates dropped out of Harvard University at 22 to start Microsoft, realizing his dream of becoming a billionaire at the age of 25, of course, this was said a little earlier, in fact, it was not until the age of 31 that this goal was completed, but then it dominated the top of the global billionaire list for 13 years, okay.

These are a bit old, and then look at the recent wonder boy Mark Zuckerberg, who dropped out of Harvard University, is only twenty-six years old and has a net worth of more than six billion, and it is still increasing every day!

After looking at the fortune experience of these wonder boys, looking back at Duke, you have to sigh that domestic education is still too conservative, the old man Deng once said that science and technology are the primary productive forces, many people think it is just a slogan, it is too superficial to understand.

Bill can sell a world's richest man by selling software CDs, and Mark Zuckerberg is even more outrageous, he doesn't sell anything, so he gives everyone a website where they can communicate and look at each other's Facebook pages and accumulate huge wealth like a rocket.

Of course, if it is made into paid software, this thing also needs to be encrypted and registered, but once there is encryption, there must be piracy, even if it is a few yuan of fees, for many people, the concept of being free and will never pay money is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, especially domestic users, which has become a deformed concept.

So far, there has not been a great software company born in China, this survival soil is too bad, so calculated, the number of hundreds of millions of users originally calculated by Duke is no problem, but how many can receive real money, this is really not an accurate number. Have you heard of a few individual users who buy genuine operating systems individually?

In addition to the pre-installation, there is almost no such thing as being scolded.,Yes,You're not mistaken.,Now you're really willing to spend money to buy a genuine operating system.,I don't know how many people scold you two.。 It is glorious to use the genuine version, but to buy the genuine version is to be stupid, this is the national situation.

The thought of countless pirated decrypted versions appearing makes Duke have a big head when he thinks about it, and it's really troublesome. In this endless game of cat and mouse encryption and decryption, a lot of resources are completely consumed in places that have nothing to do with providing value-added functions to users.

For Kerry's intelligent computer, it is completely incomprehensible, in its world, there is no concept of encryption and decryption, and even the war in their starry sky is an ancient memory hundreds of years ago, so don't expect Kerry to have any unique secrets in this aspect of encryption and decryption, this knowledge is equal to zero.

Must rely on Duke to provide the basic knowledge of encryption and decryption on the earth to deduce and improve from scratch,So for Kerry, this part of the work is more difficult than the development of speech recognition technology,Not to mention the input method,The world is almost accustomed to free,It seems really difficult to collect money,It's good to say if it's a closed environment like iphone,But for ordinary PC platforms,This situation is really too complicated!

On the one hand, there is a bright money scene with golden light, and on the other hand, it is difficult to charge a lot of thorns, and Duke can't help but feel a little entangled in his heart.

If you focus on millions and tens of millions, Duke will make a shareware and put it on the mobile phone platform, just the two big platforms of Android and Apple iOS are enough.

However, it is clear that there are hundreds of millions of PC platform markets that cannot tap hundreds of millions of wealth, and it is really ashamed of such an epoch-making software.

But how can we do this theoretical wealth? Duke didn't have an idea for a while. Fortunately, Duke is never a battle, and in times of crisis, Cai Siqiang and Dong Feng, who are close fox friends and dogs, naturally want to possess their souls.

"Caicai, crazy man, I developed a software, the function is relatively strong, and now I want to set up a company to operate it, but now I don't know what model to use to charge, if you choose to register for fees, I am worried that piracy is too fierce, and I work for profiteers in vain. Do you see if there's a good way to do it? ”

Duke invited Cai Siqiang and Dong Feng to his home, and said straight to the point that Duke was not polite to the two of them, and he didn't expect his idea to be a little too sudden, which shows that someone's emotional intelligence really has a lot of room for improvement.

"What, start a company? Duke, you're going to start a business? Cai Siqiang and Dong Feng were confused by Duke's words.

Since Duke came down from the West Ridge Mountain, his behavior during this time has been very different from before, and it can even be said that it is too weird, he previously claimed that he was going to MIT, but he did not see any action after saying it;

Then I got an inexplicable online job - fortunately, I seemed to have received money, and then as if I was stimulated by something, I began to stay up all night studying what voice recognition to tinker with, and I heard that I still went to take the GRE test, but no one knew what Duke's GRE test results were, but the two of them from what Duke said they were going to set up today, this GRE result will definitely not be very ideal, and it seems that MIT has become a floating cloud.

Regarding Duke's fluctuating idea of fishing for three days and drying nets for two days, Cai Siqiang and Dong Feng felt that it was necessary to remind Duke from the perspective of a friend, and they couldn't watch this friend be depressed like this.

"Duke, we don't have any opinions on your entrepreneurship, but even if you start a business, you have to pay attention to planning" Dong Feng tried his best to be tactful, he was really a little worried that Duke's temperament had changed, and now he was a little paranoid.

"You see that the little money you make is not very easy, there are many people who open companies nowadays, but there are very few who can survive, basically one in a hundred, this can be thought through, think twice, don't work hard and all the water is lost."

"That is, that is, this entrepreneurship should also pay attention to chance, not to be able to succeed if you want to. Now that you're opening a company, what are you going to do? Cai Siqiang continued. He came from a family of businessmen, and he knew how easy it was to start from scratch, product, timing, and connections were indispensable, and it was not just a matter of writing software to succeed.
