After the layoffs, I became a tech godfather

Chapter 122 New Actions
"What?" Zhang Yilong's heart skipped a beat when he heard that Baiju Technology had made a new move.
You guys are so strong, can you not move so frequently? Do you really want to kill us all at once or what?
"Look!" The assistant simply said "flow", and the relevant information appeared directly on Zhang Yilong's device - according to Zhang Yilong's request, everyone is now experiencing "quicksand", which is truly an unprecedented experience.

When he saw the content being transferred over, his face instantly became even gloomier, and he waved his hand, transferring the relevant information to everyone in the team who was present or not - even he, the "Father of WeChat", felt that this function was difficult to use, let alone other people in other companies!
Thinking of this, I felt even more anxious!
……

New Year's Day of 2025 is coming soon, and many universities have entered the final stage of courses this semester.

The same is true for Linzhou University, with only two exam weeks left.

At this time, in a male dormitory of a university in Linzhou.

"Hey, sons, please enjoy the excellent style of your godfather!" The person who spoke was named Wang Qiang, a sophomore.

Before Wang Qiang finished speaking, a message notification popped up on the phones of other people in the dormitory. When they clicked it, a pentakill highlights animation appeared on the screen.

"You're still holding that pentakill. Do you know how many subjects you've failed? You'll have your major exam tomorrow. If you fail again, you'll have to repeat the year!"

A roommate named Liu Rong said, "You just gave me the mandatory code. This is the key point that the teacher drew in the previous class. I will pass it on to you. Xiaosha will test you. Remember it before you remember it. Lock all the entertainment apps on your phone!"

As he spoke, with a "whoosh", a test paper and related information popped up without Wang Qiang even needing to click for consent, and his phone was left with only basic functions such as making calls and sending text messages.

There is no way, this is what happens to people with poor self-control. Wang Qiang, who has been skipping classes since his freshman year, has already failed nine credits. According to school regulations, if you fail more than twelve courses, you will be forced to repeat the year.

This "mandatory code" social function was designed by Wang Qiang himself, and he handed over the control of the "code" himself.

Other people in the dormitory can give him a task and then lock the entertainment function of their mobile phone for a certain period of time by simply entering the control code he set previously.

It is similar to the previous black room software, which can only be unlocked after completing the task or the time has passed.

And the relevant tasks are supervised and carried out by Xiaosha.

……

"Brother Song, I think we can directly adopt this model as an official function and create a child mode, student mode or supervision mode."

Han Zijie passed the relevant statistical data directly to Cao Song and then said.

"I would like to thank you on behalf of the children and students." Cao Song smiled and said, "This is your suggestion. When we release the OTA later, your name will be marked in the update log."

"Don't, Song brother!"

Although the model is good, it is bound to be criticized. If you don't tell the public whose idea it is, they will at most blame the planner or product manager.

Oh my god, if I really write my name on it, these students will shout my name and curse me. This is unbearable.

Of course, Cao Song was just talking, and it is impossible to really write the names of internal staff in the update log, but this function can indeed be added.

Not only this function, Cao Song and Han Zijie have been paying close attention to related user usage.

The flow and gameplay of various element-level services designed by users themselves, which have high popularity or look particularly classic, will all be directly included in the official functions and can be updated OTA by users themselves. They can choose whatever they need.

"I think this is not enough. How about we give some compensation to the first designers of these special modes?" Cao Song suggested.

"To stimulate enthusiasm?" Han Zijie asked.

"Yes!" Cao Song did what he said and immediately passed a relevant report and application to Hao Cheng.

……

[Hello user, the "mandatory mode" you designed has been officially adopted and included, and the official mode is "supervision mode". You can get a related reward of 20,000 yuan. Please provide your account information to Xiaosha. ]

"Twenty thousand?"

Wang Qiang himself was a little confused. When designing the relevant functions, Xiaosha reminded him that the relevant functions might be made public to other users as a reference, and that authorization from his side would be required.

He did click on the authorization button, but he didn’t expect that his design would be adopted, and he would get paid 20,000 yuan! You know, the original purpose of making this feature was to allow his roommate to supervise his studies. He needed this feature because he had no self-control.
It didn't take any time at all, I just moved my mouth, and all the work was done by Xiaosha, and I get 20,000 for it?

If it wasn't from Xiaoshafa, Wang Qiang would have thought that he had received a scam message. However, scam information could not exist here with Xiaosha, so it could only be true.

"What 20,000?" Several roommates also came over.

"It's the forced transfer this morning." Wang Qiang immediately introduced the situation.

"Fuck!" Several roommates also sighed: "Is it so easy to make money? No, I have to think of one quickly. Such a simple thing must be first come first served!"

"Wang Qiang, what are you doing?"

"I'm posting a TikTok. This is such a cool thing, I have to share it!"

"Don't post it yet. The fewer people who know about it, the better. Think about what else you can do!"

Some people even tried to grab the phone to stop it, but Liu Rong was more cunning. He directly passed a test paper to Wang Qiang and added a mandatory code. Wang Qiang’s Douyin app could not be opened instantly!
"That is the key content of another professional course, and the exam will be next week." Liu Rong said.

"Brother Rong, it has to be you!"

……

However, their idea was of course impossible to realize, because Wang Qiang was not the only one who received the news first. At this time, there were already a lot of showing-off videos on Douyin.

"The fee for being adopted for a function ranges from 10,000 to 50,000 yuan. Brothers and sisters, use your imagination quickly. This may be the best way to make money this year.

"And the official said that it's first come, first served. For the same function, whoever submits it first gets it!"

There is no way to apply for a patent for these things. Patents do not protect functions, but the methods of achieving functions.

The method to realize the function here is Xiaosha. Strictly speaking, there will be no problem even if Baiju Technology does not pay.

However, now that we have some money, things are completely different. Everyone's enthusiasm has been aroused, and they have all started to use their brains to contribute to the subsequent development of Xiaosha.

Various new features and flow settings continue to emerge.

Cao Song, on the other hand, has his team monitor the situation at all times, conduct regular development on applications that have received good responses and are more classic, and then perform OTA updates for other users to choose from as needed.

"Are you sure you don't want to try couple mode?"

Cao Song has also been paying attention to the element-level services and the gameplay that people are looking forward to.

The couple mode is also the most submitted by users, but the gameplay is slightly different.

But Cao Song didn’t quite understand how couples played this game. How could a single guy like him understand this?

“Based on the functional descriptions they submit, we will conduct a questionnaire survey and those with the highest votes will be added to the official template.”

Since this thing has become like this, it is better to leave it to the users to choose. The users' time can be used for free. It would be a waste if they don't use it.

With this in mind, Cao Song also said: "Since we have done this, let's also release the function suggestion module. If users have good ideas and suggestions that are complex and difficult to implement by themselves, they can also directly propose them.

"Then we will develop and implement it. Once it is adopted, there will be rewards!" The product manager and the product department are just a few people. How can it be as refreshing as brainstorming? Since it's free, then let it be free to the end.

Moreover, you have to pay for the adoption, so it’s not completely free.

……

Originally, Cao Song's measures were intended to provide more templates for the "circulation" function in social scenarios, but he did not expect that they had other effects, directly prompting the expansion of the element-level application chain and directly pushing "WeChat" to the edge of the cliff.
