Wandering the world of film and television begins with the golden years

Chapter 70 It smells so good and it's so soft

Time is life, speed is money.

Li Haoyu gave Guan Weiguang a month to develop the product.

A month is indeed a rushed time for software development. But for software to seize market share, every day is precious. The golden period for quiet, strategic development is before other major internet companies have noticed or valued it.

So after Guan Weiguang gathered the right people and formed the development team.

He immediately made several requests:

First, be quick!

Hurry up and complete the page design and functional modules.

Second, the software must be robust and durable!

Both testing and server performance must withstand rigorous scrutiny and not easily crash. Li Haoyu didn't want to invest so much manpower and resources, only to have the software crash and display a black screen as soon as users and businesses started testing it.

It needs to be fast and durable.

This sounds like a demand made by an unscrupulous client.

There is only one solution to this problem.

Throw money!

Li Haoyu went to the bank again and withdrew 50,000 yuan in cash.

When he took out stacks of cash from his bag and neatly arranged them in front of them.

For college students, the visual impact is self-evident.

Guan Weiguang and his several expert friends were stunned. Just like in online novels, they were all struck dumb and speechless.

Several people stood there with their mouths open, unable to speak for a long time.

Just how strong is this junior student?

Guan Weiguang rallied his spirits and asked, "Is this money for us?"

Leaving aside the previous 80,000 yuan, now they've thrown down another 50,000 yuan incentive bonus without even flinching… Just developing a piece of software, and he's already poured over 100,000 yuan into it. He's really going all out. 💚♝ 69sx.¢𝕆м 🐙💝

If developing software requires such a large investment, I can't even imagine how much it will cost to promote it later.

How could Guan Weiguang know that, apart from the house, this 50,000 yuan was Li Haoyu's last remaining funds?

A bigwig once said, "If you pay enough, even a novice can become a talent."

Li Haoyu thought it made a lot of sense, so he decided to learn from it.

How can we achieve a miracle through sheer force?

The simplest and most direct way is to throw money at it!

Of course, this money wasn't so easy to get. Li Haoyu considered that after the software went online, they would be among the first batch of operators and maintainers of the software.

Initially, the software's operations staff don't need to be highly specialized; they can also handle operations tasks on a part-time basis. They can also assist newly registered merchants and users by answering questions encountered during use.

Anyway, the money comes from the investors, so once we get angel investment, we can use their money to raise their salaries. The carrot and stick approach will never go out of style.

With such a real monetary incentive, the programmers worked incredibly hard.

Even Li Haoyu, that unscrupulous capitalist, was terrified when he saw it.

Li Haoyu vacated his house for the project team, and he and Jiang Nansun provided living support for them. Seeing that the project was falling behind schedule, Guan Weiguang outsourced some simple procedures to them at salaries far exceeding market rates.

These days, many computer science graduate students help their advisors for free, and even when they intern at software companies, the salary is at most a little over two hundred yuan. 🐝👤 ❻❾Şн𝓊χ.匚σ𝓂 🎉🐟

Li Haoyu spared no expense, so Guan Weiguang naturally had plenty of confidence.

Even outsourced programmers start with a master's degree.

With the money in place, Guan Weiguang, the person in charge, went mad, and his programmers followed suit. Plus, these technical staff were indeed highly skilled.

The entire project team is making rapid progress in development.

……

The HaoTuan app is about to be launched.

Inside Li Haoyu's new house, a group of people, led by Li Haoyu, were nervously watching the computer in front of them, monitoring the backend data.

"User login..."

"Information authentication..."

"Pin your mobile phone number..."

"The page views have reached 800..."

Merchant registration information and user activity data are constantly being updated. Currently, the software testing is only open to a select group of merchants in Xishan Province who are willing to participate in the pilot program; it is not yet open to all merchants.

On the computer screens in front of everyone, there were constant messages and feedback from merchants and users.

"Will it really be delivered? What if it still hasn't arrived by dinnertime?"

"Oh no, I placed the wrong order! How do I cancel it?!"

"Link your bank card? Can't I pay on delivery?"

"Customer service, why can't I use this coupon? Are there any restrictions?"

"Crackling and popping..."

The sound of keyboards clattering rapidly in the room was like a piano symphony. Everyone sat down at their desks, turned on their computers, and patiently explained how to use the software, resolving the problems they encountered.

In just a few days, the previously empty software interface was transformed.

The page already has hundreds of merchants, including many well-known local shops.

The number of merchants joining the platform is also constantly increasing. Li Haoyu is not in a hurry to have Huang Qingsen migrate all the merchants to the software.

Hundreds of merchants may not seem like a lot, but it's enough.

The data is sufficient to push information to users through carousel technology; no matter how many merchants are involved, there's no way to achieve a significant improvement. As long as the data on the app is positive, merchants who haven't joined the app will naturally contact them.

At this stage, he wants Huang Qingsen to select some reputable merchants, prioritize creating best-selling products on the platform, and at the same time have all part-time and full-time staff do on-the-ground promotion.

The advantage of on-the-ground promotion is its simplicity and directness; it involves hands-on teaching, and college students have a strong ability to accept new things. Avoid the repetitive explanations required when dealing with older people; you even need to demonstrate things yourself.

Some students are too lazy to go out, so they order takeout by downloading the app to see recommended restaurants or searching for shops on the app. However, most students open the app out of curiosity.

The first impression of software is that it is simple and clean!

No messy GGs, just a colorful interface.

Besides the store rankings, the discount information is immediately clear.

The registration process is also very simple; once you bind your mobile phone number, you can place an order.

Although HaoTuan software is still in its early stages, its backend data has taken off very quickly.

"Boss, the app's page views have surpassed 10,000, and they're still rising..."

"The top-rated merchant rankings are out, and the number one shop has already sold over 300 units..."

"Registered users have reached one thousand..."

…………

No award, however prestigious, can compare to the word of mouth from users.

The smooth user experience, clean interface, and simple operation have attracted more and more merchants and users to register, resulting in an astonishing growth curve in the number of registered users and page views on Haotuan.

To celebrate the instant success of HaoTuan, Li Haoyu hosted a simple celebration banquet at his home. When he saw Jiang Nansun arrive, Li Haoyu couldn't help but hug her tightly and spin her around twice, saying, "Nansun, you're truly my lucky star! HaoTuan's online launch has become quite a hit."

Jiang Nansun blushed, but there were still many outsiders present.

She couldn't very well make a scene, so she said, "Okay, just put me down."

He took the opportunity to experience it firsthand.

It's very soft, very fragrant, and has a lingering aftertaste.

Although he was very reluctant, the timing was indeed not right.

Li Haoyu could only reluctantly let her go.

Having finally returned to the ground, Jiang Nansun complained, "You need to be careful. There are so many people here. They won't learn anything good, they'll just pick up these bad things! Congratulations, now you have an even more reasonable excuse to say you don't have time to talk to me."

Li Haoyu nodded seriously, his face tense, and said, "My goal is the stars and the sea. This is just the beginning for the team. Don't try to take over my mind and body with such little achievement! On the contrary, you seem to have a good chance?"

"You jerk, I'm not talking to you anymore."

After saying that, Jiang Nansun took the opportunity to slip away.

She was clearly worried that Li Haoyu would continue to touch her inappropriately.

Take advantage of the situation.
