Chapter 543

Yang Dong was very excited by Qin Shaoyan's proposal, and even several image detection technicians from the Municipal Bureau were delighted.

When they first made the request, they felt embarrassed and thought it was too abrupt.

But they didn't expect that Qin Shaoyan would agree immediately, which was really beyond their expectations.

If there really is an internal special software to use, their work efficiency will be greatly improved.

Yang Dong knew that making this kind of software required investment of manpower and material resources, that the scope of market application was quite narrow, and that it was only used within the police system, and that there would be no visible returns in the short term.

Currently, only their municipal bureau is using it, and it is unknown whether it can be promoted nationwide in the future.

So Yang Dong was particularly moved and held Qin Shaoyan's hand and said thank you several times.

After seeing off Yang Dong and others, Zhang Pingyi frowned and looked at the small company.

"Boss Qin." Zhang Pingyi couldn't help but say, "Are you so ready to agree? Think about it carefully. You can't make any money from this job. It's not easy at all."

"Of course I know." Qin Shaoyan said calmly, "Sometimes, we can't just measure things by money. Helping the public security organs to fight crime and maintain social order is also part of reflecting social value."

Qin Shaoyan's target is not just the Municipal Bureau. If it can be promoted throughout the entire police system, there will be many invisible benefits.

Zhang Pingyi didn't say anything more after understanding Qin Shaoyan's thoughts. He turned to look at the empty office area and said, "It won't work with only a few employees now."

"Subsequent development, updating, maintenance, and operation all require people. Your special version for the system also needs people to develop it."

"Yeah, I know." Qin Shaoyan said casually, "We are already recruiting people, and this building will be filled soon."

In fact, Qin Shaoyan was just being perfunctory. After all, there was no development team for the "beauty tool".

He set up this company just to cover up the fact that this software was created out of thin air.

Qin Shaoyan couldn't shamelessly say that he developed this thing himself. After all, he didn't know programming and it would be easy to be exposed if he met someone who knew the subject.

Subsequent development and updates are also simple, because the software was already complete when it reached his hands, and the simplified version he released at the beginning was the one.

All he has to do is open up new features little by little and pretend that it is an iterative development.

In addition, by recruiting a research and development team, they can also develop some non-core functions around the "beauty tool".

The so-called "internal special version" is nothing more than a modification based on the original version, adding some new functions, which does not require much effort at all.

Qin Shaoyan naturally agreed to this kind of thing which was beneficial and cost-free.

The internal special version still uses fool-proof operation. Because the underlying software is very powerful, the operation will be simplified as much as possible.

The simpler the operation and the easier it is to get started, the easier it is to use, so that ordinary police officers can also use it after simple training.

The internal special version can provide several functions, including low-quality image enhancement, blurry image enhancement, noise reduction and other image processing functions.

If the cooperation with the police system goes well, Qin Shaoyan feels that the AI ​​facial recognition he invested in can also be included in the cooperative project, so that this thing can be put into commercial use as soon as possible.

Zhang Pingyi is particularly concerned about the "beauty tool" because it has become a powerful tool for promoting VV.

The chat software VV has 30 million users in a short period of time, mostly due to the "beauty tool".

This software was a dimensionality reduction strike on the Internet, attracting countless women to chase after it crazily, and greatly improving the overall appearance of netizens on the Chinese Internet. Under such circumstances, VV's expansion speed in the market exceeded everyone's expectations, and it was simply a big kill.

The first to be cannibalized were QQ users, since both are chat software with similar usage logic, and the first group of people attracted were QQ users.

According to the current user growth rate, the number of users will exceed 100 million by the end of the year.

Zhang Pingyi had previously envisioned a different situation. He had previously considered that QQ had occupied the market for a long time and had high user stickiness, which would affect users' enthusiasm for registering and using VV.

But later the actual situation proved that this situation did not exist at all. Users had no psychological barriers to thinking when registering for VV. It was a completely easy thing and there was no psychological burden in using it.

Nowadays, who doesn’t have two or three QQ accounts? Many people enjoy registering QQ accounts, and having seven, eight, or even a dozen is not a problem at all. Many users even have several QQ accounts on their computers and surf the Internet at the same time.

Therefore, it is not a big deal to register an extra VV account and hang it on your computer.

"Boss Qin, QQ has been making a lot of moves recently." Zhang Pingyi sighed, "They are frantically giving out memberships and yellow diamonds to users, and they are also holding lucky draws."

"Lottery?" Qin Shaoyan was curious. "What are you drawing?"

"Usually it's a one-month membership, and there are some Q coins and so on. The first prize is 10,000 Q coins plus a one-year membership." Zhang Pingyi replied.

Qin Shaoyan laughed, "That's it?"

"Since the penguin gave us a gift, we can't be stingy."

Qin Shaoyan thought for a moment and said, "Then let's give away memberships as well. One-year memberships are not worth it, so let's just give away ten-year memberships."

"Ten-year membership?" Zhang Pingyi was a little surprised. "How many will you give me?"

"Let's pick a few thousand users to give it away." Qin Shaoyan thought for a moment, "Why not round it up and give it away to 10,000 users!"

"Ah?!" Zhang Pingyi was shocked. "Is it appropriate for you to be so generous?"

"Of course it's appropriate. Memberships are not worth much." Qin Shaoyan said nonchalantly, "We don't make money from memberships, so we'll just give them to our families as a benefit."

Zhang Pingyi also nodded, thinking that membership was indeed meaningless. Right now, Sentinel Technology could make enough money from its online gaming projects.

"The lottery is too cliché." Qin Shaoyan continued, "We can try something new."

"What new tricks do you have?" Zhang Pingyi was no longer surprised. Qin Shaoyan always came up with some new ideas.

"Let's let users collect the five blessings." Qin Shaoyan smiled and rubbed his hands, "That scene must be very spectacular."

"Collect the five blessings?" Zhang Pingyi was stunned and asked in confusion, "What kind of operation is this?"

"The Olympics are coming soon," Qin Shaoyan replied. "This year's Olympic mascots are the five Fuwa (Chinese lucky dolls). Let's make a fuss about them."

"We will hold an Olympic knowledge quiz, and the community will check in and sign in. We will give out several lucky draw opportunities every day, and you will have a chance to win one of the Fuwa."

“In addition to the lucky draw, you can also have a chance to win by inviting new users and interacting with other users.”

"Once users have collected all five Olympic mascots, they can redeem the grand prize."

"what do you think?"
