"Are you really going to leave?" When Meng Xiaobai handed over work in Gao Yuan's office, she asked inexplicably.
"Of course, can I joke about this kind of thing?" Meng Xiaobai said.
"But... you don't have to be so stubborn!" Gao Yuan said, "New things have a period of savage growth."
"You're right." Meng Xiaobai nodded, "Marx also said that the primitive accumulation of capital is bloody. I am not a saint and a gentleman, and I have to do great things. It's just that I have a premonition from big data analysis.
crisis."
He continued: "Judging from the feedback from various aspects these days, quite a few people have noticed the violations in the user agreement and the copyright issues of video works. Although these complaints have been deleted by us, we can still complain about the official website.
Can’t delete it.”
"Another point is that they don't realize that the risks posed by face replacement technology are far greater than ordinary information leaks! Ordinary software that leaks user information can at most sell you products, but at worst it can lead to online fraud. But people
Face replacement will directly and indirectly cause users to face huge property losses, threaten life safety, lead to career and family crises, etc."
"Next time something happens, we may not be so lucky to solve it. If a gentleman doesn't put up a dangerous wall and they are not prepared to change, then I have to withdraw first."
"Are you exaggerating?" He said, and Gao Yuan also became worried.
"Won't."
"Then what are you going to do after you leave your job?" Gao Yuanduo asked.
"Of course it's to start a business. 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?"
"Are you still poaching me?" Gao Yuan said speechlessly, "I'm not like you, who can just walk away? You are right, I will pay more attention."
"Okay." Meng Xiaobai said, "Remember to call me. I estimate that I have been short of people for the past year and a half!"
"Okay, I hope you can develop better. Then one day when I lose my job, 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 said immediately.
"If I leave, it will not affect your work." Meng Xiaobai said, "I told Mr. Pan that there will be no changes in the people I recruit in the short term."
"No, you brought me in. If you want to leave, of course I want to come with you!" Gan Huarong's eyes were full of determination.
"Brother, have you thought about it? If you come with me, everything will start again! Your current high-paying job will be gone!" Meng Xiaobai emphasized.
"I know, you helped me find this job anyway. If you can use me, then I won't let you stay at all." Gan Huarong raised his glasses without any regrets.
"Okay! I won't say any more!" Meng Xiaobai did not refuse. During this period, Gan Huarong's performance has been good and he still has potential in technical work. "Let's go together. I believe you won't regret this."
Decide!"
…
In two days, Meng Xiaobai handed over all the work and officially resigned. Also leaving with him was Gan Huarong.
Gan Huarong was a little confused. He didn't know if he had made the right choice. Anyway, his girlfriend at home had already told him that he didn't have any brains and had lost a good job in vain. But Gan Huarong felt that he might not have made the wrong choice.
choose.
"What should we do next?" he asked.
"Of course it is to open a company, then design a product and put it online," Meng Xiaobai said.
"Just the two of us?"
"That's enough for now."
"Then what do we do?" Gan Huarong asked in confusion.
"That's a good question." Meng Xiaobai smiled and said, "Brother, have you ever thought about it, the knowledge in our heads now is a huge fortune!"
"You mean? Smart face-changing technology?" Gan Huarong was inspired and continued: "Let's make a new face-changing software, and then find people to invest in it to make it bigger and stronger!"
"The idea is good, but it needs some modifications." Meng Xiaobai was half sure, and then said: "There are enough face-changing software on the market now, such as zai, Variety Show, and various beauty cameras. Behind these software,
They all have big platforms and big capital like Langya Company. They have money and channels."
"It's hard for us to compete with them when we make a similar product. After all, we invest tens of millions or hundreds of millions a month, but we don't have that much money!"
"Then what do we 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 Le Live Broadcasting Company, he was still confused and didn't know what to do next. But after these few months of learning and growth, Meng Xiaobai felt that he already knew what to do.
"This is our temporary office location." Meng Xiao spent money to rent a small office that can accommodate two computer desks.
Compared with the previous office conditions at Langya Company, this place was quite simple, but neither of the two grown men cared.
"My plan is that in one month, we will develop the software, register the company, and launch the product online." Meng Xiaobai arranged, "Now I will tell you what I want to do."
Gan Huarong straightened his back and listened carefully.
"A dress-up software can also be called makeup-changing software." Meng Xiaobai said.
"Changing clothes? Like a beauty camera?" Gan Huarong said.
"No, the dress-up I'm talking about is not a simple picture effect like a beauty camera. It's a dress-up special effect achieved by using biometrics and computer intelligence technology!" Meng Xiaobai patiently explained to him.
"For example, our Variety Show uses face recognition technology to replace the user's image in the video. If you expand your thinking, if we take this technology one step further, we will not only recognize face information, but also height,
Skin color and other body information.”
"Process this information to generate a character model. Then use computer intelligence to change clothes or make-up on the character model...The final effect I want to achieve is that users only need to use our software to try on clothes and makeup online.
You don’t have to change it yourself!”
"Smart dressing up?" Gan Huarong looked interested, "You mean, this software functions as a smart fitting mirror or makeup mirror?"
"It's almost 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 smart fitting, or similar dressing software, is not smart at all.
!Real intelligence is to be able to process every biometric information and generate a character model that is difficult to distinguish with the naked eye. Only in this way can the dressing effect be the same as that of a real person and give users a surprise!"
"And we already have a foundation for this technology. We are continuing to develop it in depth on the previously developed face replacement technology." Meng Xiaobai introduced, "If you think about it again, what is the main purpose of this software?"
"If we can achieve the same dressing effect as in the real scene..." Gan Huarong thought along his train of thought, "then it will definitely have miraculous effects when used in e-commerce!"
"Yes!" Meng Xiaobai clapped and said, "That's my idea! This software can not only be used by users, but will also become a wonderful e-commerce tool! As long as we can do it, are we afraid of not having funds? Those e-commerce platforms
, will rush to give us money!”
Meng Xiaobai told his real purpose. His biggest difficulty now is not lack of technology, but lack of money! According to the current market situation, it will be very difficult for a software to make money from users within two or three years. So he
From the beginning, I didn’t want to make money from users first, but to make money from those big companies!
"Can we do it? Biometrics, artificial intelligence, these, the two of us..." Gan Huarong thinks that although this idea is good, it is a bit unrealistic. With this workload, can a team of hundreds of people not develop it? And it may not be possible.
Developed!
"With me here, I will definitely be able to do it!" Meng Xiaobai said with certainty.
