Chapter 114 What does it mean to be young and promising?

(ps... The 6000-word chapter seeks to subscribe)
……

Lin Hui is quite satisfied with the first-day sales of Nanfeng APP Professional Mode.

However, He Tianchang was not very satisfied after seeing the first-day download data of Nanfeng APP Professional Mode through third-party data.

The reason why He Tianchang is dissatisfied is not because he is jealous of the virtuous and capable, it is precisely because he cherishes the younger generation that he is dissatisfied with this statistic.

Only 337 downloads of professional mode on the first day?
Even if the professional model charges 19999 yuan per copy, the turnover of these 337 copies is only more than 670 million.

It seems to be not bad, but how can the turnover be equal to the developer's income?
Developers can only reap 70% after platform exploitation
(ps: ... He didn't know that Lin Hui's share can only be speculated according to common sense)
Moreover, the developers of Nanfeng APP do not seem to have won corresponding policy/policy support.

Anyway, He Tianchang didn't see the corresponding publicity documents.

Doesn't this mean that the developers of the Nanfeng APP would only earn less than 400 million yuan after tax if they relied solely on sharing?

What can you do with this little money?

It seems that an income of nearly 400 million is quite a lot for ordinary people, but this amount of money is still not enough for software developers.

And the so-called 400 million, is this money really a net profit?
He Tianchang had done professional software development before, and knew all kinds of difficulties encountered in professional software development.

Professional software is different from traditional ordinary software development, and the initial investment cost of software alone is much higher than that of other software development.

What's more, Nanfeng APP is still a pioneering work in the field of "processing Chinese news summaries".

"The pioneering work", this kind of rhetoric seems glorious, but only developers know the hardships that truly groundbreaking research and development need to pay.

When it comes to research on Chinese abstracts, He Tianchang is not a professional.

However, He Tianchang has often heard his journalist friend Lao Fu complain that it is very difficult to obtain machine summaries for Chinese news.

He Tianchang knew his good friend Lao Fu's style of handling things, and basically never complained in the face of difficulties.

With such a difficult task that everyone sighs, how can professional software development in this area be easy?

He Tianchang learned from some internal information that there was no institution that had done research on news abstracts before.

But investing nearly 500 million has achieved nothing but a decent Chinese corpus.

As for the corresponding program development, not even a single sample has been developed, let alone the application efficiency.

Related research was shelved for a while.

"Chinese News Summary" is such a field that professionals find it difficult. How much is the initial investment?
Although the money that an individual developer can invest is limited after all.

But He Tianchang felt that the developer of Nanfeng APP should have invested 800 million in the development of Nanfeng APP.

Now the net income on the first day is less than 400 million and there is a high probability that the 400 million has not been settled in the hands of the developers. How can this be possible?

Doesn't this mean that the developers of Nanfeng APP are still operating at a loss?

If it goes on like this for a long time, there will be big problems.

Although an outsider, He Tianchang empathizes with this situation because of his early experience.

You must know that after the software goes online, it will also require spending money on many aspects such as publicity, channels, operation and maintenance.

It may not be easy for a company with a steady stream of cash to maintain an unprofitable software.

Let alone an individual developer.

The software development industry is not all about warmth, and it is not an exaggeration to say that one "general" will be successful.

In order to survive the early heat fermentation period of software, there are countless examples of abandoning their family and business for blood transfusion in the early operation of software.

However, even so, not all software can survive.

He Tianchang has been in the industry for a long time, and He Tianchang has seen too many excellent software die before they are born.

Even though the ideas and ideas of these excellent software are very good, what's the use?
How can we enjoy the warmth of spring if we haven't even survived the early winter?

He Tianchang can't just sit back and watch this happen!

Speaking of this incident, he felt very angry. He didn't just sit back and watch the situation of Nanfeng APP Software ignore it.

In fact, he contacted Laofu last night when he saw through the third-party website that the sales volume of the professional model of Nanfeng APP was not very good.

Please Laofu evaluate the effectiveness of news processing in Nanfeng APP's professional mode, and if it is suitable for use, see if it can be supported in the form of bulk purchases.

After all, there are very few domestically specialized in professional software development.

Lao Fu agreed very readily, but this matter passed almost a day, but there was no news.

This made the impatient He Tianchang a little anxious.

Perhaps Lao Fu also has his own helplessness. He is in the world and cannot help himself.

……

He Tianchang was muttering, when suddenly the office phone rang, and it was Lao Fu.

He Tianchang and Lao Fu have known each other for more than 30 years, so there is no need to be polite: "Hey, Lao Fu, how are things going?"

Lao Fu: "That's right, didn't you entrust me to take care of a developer of Nanfeng APP?

When you came to me, I was playing chess with Lao He.

It just so happens that I don't know the details of the software developer of Nanfeng APP, so I asked Lao He to check the information of the software developer of Nanfeng APP..."

He Tianchang: "Old He? Which Old He?"

Old Fu: "Of course that old classmate of ours, now he's better than G_Xin."

He Tianchang: "Oh, I said that this kid called me some time ago and dragged me to bragging in all over the world... It turned out to be another level. Good guy, when will we both go to fuck him together... ..."

Old Fu: "That must be, I have had this idea for a long time..."

He Tianchang: "By the way, you just said that you checked the developer of Nanfeng APP, did you find it? How is the result?"

Old Fu: "Oh, I almost forgot when you interrupted me.
The developer of the Nanfeng APP, I don’t know if I don’t check it, it’s really outrageous. "

He Tianchang: "Why is it outrageous? How do you say this?"

Old Fu: "Old He! I think you must have been deceived this time.

The developer of this Nanfeng APP is called Lin Hui, Hui Hui, who just turned 18 this year and is from Beiyu.

This Lin Hui is not someone who specializes in professional software development at all.

He is just a student who just finished the college entrance examination this year, let alone developing professional software is an amateur.

It is estimated that developing software itself is just a matter of interest.

Moreover, although Lin Hui also develops software.

But, he mainly develops games.

In addition to the Nanfeng APP, the several software he launched this month are all games.

In fact, people who develop professional software are likely to play tickets or simply make money in games and want to gain a good reputation through professional software development.

In short, even if this person has the act of developing professional software, his purpose may not be so pure.

Lao He, everyone has noticed that you have supported and supported the backward all these years, but this time I feel that your hard work in cultivating future generations may be a mistake..."

He Tianchang's eyes brightened: "You mean, the developer of this Nanfeng APP is only 18 years old?
Then such a rare software development genius should be supported..."

Lao Fu said helplessly: "You, you, you are still the same!
It's hard to say whether a genius is not a genius, and this is not the point of focus.

The point is that he is not at all the kind of professional software you imagine with dreams and feelings.

In fact, he released a game just today. "

He Tianchang disagrees: "I think professional software development doesn't care about performance.

He has the behavior of developing professional software, and the professional software developed is powerful enough.

that's enough!Then his behavior of developing software is something worthy of support.

In short, I think it is necessary to help or help!

After all, professional software is not easy to do these days!
Let me do the math for you, a professional software developer..."

He Tianchang reckoned with Lao Fu the funds he had just given to Nanfeng APP developer Lin Hui to develop the Nanfeng APP cycle.

Lao Fu listened patiently: "You have finished the calculation, and I will also do the calculation for you. You are now a full professor, and your annual salary is probably after tax..."

He Tianchang was at a loss: "If you have something to say, talk about it, what are you doing with my annual income..."

Old Fu: "I want to say that the tax you pay for that Lin Hui you want to support with all your heart, will crush your annual income after tax."

He Tianchang looked suspicious: "How is it possible? Although I don't develop software to make money, I also earn a lot of income from writing books and sharing lectures. Although it is not as nourishing as before, but..."

Lao Fu: "Even if your annual income is 500 million! What's the use?

The Lin Hui you want to help paid more than 17 million yuan in a single tax payment on the 500th of this month, and paid a few more taxes in the next few days, even today he paid nearly a million yuan in taxes.

The cost you calculated for Lin Hui just now for the whole cycle of developing the Nanfeng APP is even less than the tax he pays in a week.

Are you sure this kind of person needs your help? "

This sudden information made He Tianchang a little stunned: "Um, you won't lie to me, if you pay taxes of several million, inversely, his income is tens of millions, right?
Didn't you just say that he only developed software this month?In other words, all his income has been settled in the last month?How is this possible?
The software framework he developed is made of gold or the art is made of gold. How can it be possible to get money so quickly? "

Lao Fu: "What are you doing, I lie to you. The tax payment information is published on the tax website. If you don't believe me, you can search it yourself."

In fact, He Tianchang had already searched, and found the name "Lin Hui" with almost no effort in the software category tax payment on the tax payment website.

In the column of personal tax payment for software income, Lin Hui's tax amount is too conspicuous.

The annual tax payment of many small companies is not even as much as the weekly tax payment of an individual developer.

It's kind of hard not to notice.

This is simply outrageous mom opening the door for outrageous...

The actual situation is even more terrifying than what Lao Fu said. This Lin Hui is approaching 1000 million in taxes alone.

How much did he earn himself?
But how much you earn seems to have nothing to do with others.

After paying taxes is after-tax income.

Lao Fu: "This income is really evil, but according to industry insiders, the rate at which the game industry absorbs money is normal.

In addition, people in the industry also said that domestic income is only a small part of Lin Hui's income, and most of his income comes from overseas markets.

Some people estimate that his overseas income is at least 2000 million U.S. dollars, and if the money is converted into RMB, it will already exceed [-] million.

So I tell you not to worry about this Nanfeng APP developer.

With so much income, if he really has ideas about professional software, let alone raising a professional software, it is no problem to raise a professional software development company. "

He Tianchang:. . .

This guy named Lin Hui is only 18 years old, so he has so much energy?

He Tianchang thought of his 18 years old.

I can't seem to remember anything except the name of my first love girlfriend who will have time to confess in the future.

The same is engaged in IT, why is the gap so big.

The back waves of the Yangtze River push the front waves, and the back waves hit the beach.

He Tianchang wanted to say something, but he was short of words for a while.

However, He Tianchang still insisted: "This is not being deceived, talents like Lin Hui are the ones who can really save the domestic professional software market!
Since he has developed enough professional software, he still needs to help.

Anyway, set an example for the rest of the professional software developers.

Lao Fu, even if you don't directly sponsor, you can still help Lin Hui with some support!

Based on your professionalism, the higher-ups should seriously consider your opinion..."

Lao Fu said helplessly: "I have convinced you, and I have never changed my mind after so many years.

Well, I will ask a dedicated team to measure the professionalism of this Nanfeng software later.

If it is really as professional as you describe.

Don't worry, it's not just supporting me to help him find it, it's okay to spend money directly. "

He Tianchang smiled and said: "Happy, this is the old Fu I know!"

Old Fu: "Don't come here. But if you really want to help, I think you are more suitable than me to help this Lin Hui get what he wants?"

He Tianchang: "How do you say it?"

Old Fu: "I still remember that I just mentioned to you that this Lin Hui just finished the college entrance examination this year and is a freshman.

If you think he is a seedling, why don't you just get him to you during the admissions process?In this way, if he really intends to develop professional software in the long run, you can guide such a student by your side..."

He Tianchang: "Whether your idea is good or not, the problem is that the time is too short. If the cycle is long, such a talent can find a way to get this Lin Hui in through a process such as self-recruitment, but report it now." Volunteering, it's too late.

Unless this Lin Hui is willing to delay one year and participate in the independent enrollment in the second half of the year..."

Lao Fu: "Well, with your logic, why do you preconceive that Lin Hui can't rely on his own strength to enter your country's central government?"

He Tianchang: "I don't dare to brag about anything else. I still have some confidence. After all, our National Center is also a top 3 university in the country. It's really not that anyone can get in if they want to."

(ps: ...the National Center is set to be a combination of Southeast University and Nantah University. I don’t know what the name of the combination of these two schools is. It is named after the two words "Guoyang" drawn by the former National/State/Central/Central/University Bar)
Lao Fu: "It's not necessarily true. From the information I found, the average score of Lin Hui's three large-scale mock exams before the college entrance examination is 660.666, which corresponds to the local score line. Although this score cannot enter the strong majors of your school, it can be admitted There's nothing wrong with your school."

He Tianchang: "Is there still such a thing? Then such a talent must not be missed! I will call Director Liu of the Admissions Office later and tell him to pay attention.

In other words, it’s good enough to pay you, even the average score of the mock exams in other people’s middle schools has been turned out.

You are outrageous enough to check people directly to the bottom of the sky..."

Lao Fu: "Anyway, I also came from the news industry, so I don't know if I understand it professionally or not.

Except for the fact that the software developer that Lao He inquired about crossed the line, other information is public information.

In fact, as long as you master certain methods and are good at finding clues in subtleties, it is still very easy to obtain information about a person.

It's really not me bragging... (omit a large paragraph of bragging ratio)"

He Tianchang said in his heart that if it weren't for the step of crossing the boundary, it would be difficult to gather other information even if it is made public.

He Tianchang: "The information you are looking for should be more than what you said!"

Lao Fu: "There must be more than that, I found a lot of information in a mess..."

He Tianchang: "Um, what's the situation, you are always so professional, and the information you are looking for is still messy?"

Lao Fu: "This is an exception, the main sources of information related to 'Lin Hui' are too mixed.

I haven't bothered to sort it out and look carefully..."

He Tianchang: "Then don't tidy it up, if it's convenient for you, just send me a copy of all the news you found related to this Lin Hui, I'll read it slowly..."

Old Fu: "Okay, I'll fax it to you. But remember to destroy it after reading it. You just need to know some things. If Lin is a glove, you and I can't afford to mess with it."

He Tianchang: "Got it, I understand."

……

……

Look at Lao Fu's fax to send news related to Lin Hui.

The more He Tianchang looked at it, the more he was shocked.

Speaking of which, Lao Fu is right in one point, the information is indeed a bit "messy".

However, the reason for this situation is not entirely because the sources of information are too complicated.

The main reason is the information itself. The entropy of these messages is obviously larger than that of general messages.

If the viewer is not told that these messages are from one person, the viewer will most likely not think that the following information is from the same person.

He Tianchang saw Lin Hui's overview of game development in a lot of information:

"Lin Hui, under the signature of GRAY FOREST, has successively released four mobile games: "Life Reopening Simulator", "2048", "FLAPPY BIRD" and "HILL CLIMB RACING". The first three games have achieved great success, and the world's most The young Apple Design Award winner…”

As for the winner of the Apple Design Award, He Tianchang has no feeling for the title.

When he was engaged in software development, there was no AppStore yet!

As for He Tianchang, who is about games, he is a layman.

But he still searched for outside commentators who spoke highly of GRAY FOREST (that is, forest ash).

These game reviews believe that GRAY FOREST, as a game developer, has brought surprises and miracles to the industry time and time again, and has set its sights on the world from the very beginning...

It's hard for He Tianchang to comment on whether Lin Hui has any impact on the game industry, but He Tianchang thinks that his global vision is worthy of praise.

In the news, He Tianchang even found out that Lin Hui had donated 6 yuan to Yunxiu Primary School in his own name in mid-June, and left a message. He hoped that his children would grow up unrestrained and free like clouds...

This behavior made He Tianchang raise Lin Hui's evaluation by several levels in his heart.

Among the news about Lin Hui, what surprised He Tianchang the most was a bunch of patent applications:

"Lin Hui applied for the Nanfeng APP software patent at the National Patent/Patent/Bureau in mid-June, status: passed, patent number ZL6xxxxxxx;

Lin Hui applied for the patent of "Research on Evolved Real-time News Document Summary Processing Method" at the National Patent Office in mid-June, status: under review;
Lin Hui applied for "a new type of efficient Chinese language text processing method" at the National Patent Office in mid-June, status: under review"

"..."

In addition to Chinese news, there are actually a lot of crooked news about patents.

It seems that when Lin Hui applied for a patent, he did not patronize domestic patent applications.

Also by the way, a lot of crooked fruit patents and global patents have been settled.

Seeing this news, He Tianchang was a little surprised.

These crooked fruit patents can be successfully applied for, which may not be a step-by-step application process.

He Tianchang felt that behind these overseas patents being successfully handled, there should be the shadow of the American agency team.

He has applied for overseas patents before, and it is difficult to apply for patents that will not lose the interests of the United States without some channels.

Lin Hui, as a person who has not stepped into society, can deal with problems without sticking to the old ways, which is really rare.

What does it mean to be young and promising?Maybe Lin Hui is really young and promising.

Looking at the names of these patents, He Tianchang was suddenly a little surprised, not because he was surprised by Lin Hui's so many patents.

In fact, he has quite a few patents, even several times more than Lin Hui's patents.

The reason why he was shocked was because of Lin Hui's thoughtfulness.

There is nothing to be seen from these patents or patent application forms.

But looking at them together, He Tianchang felt that he saw a large net that was carefully woven.

And the "under review" one by one undoubtedly means that this net is gradually trying to tighten.

For some reason, this net even made him feel a little suffocated.

No, he shouldn't feel suffocated, anyway, the direction of this net wrapping is not him.

But as for Lin Hui's opponent, it's hard to say.

He Tianchang admired Lin Hui even more.

It is really rare to be able to have this calmness at the age of 18.

Originally, He Tianchang heard Lao Fu tell Lin Hui that he was only 18 years old this year.

He was still a little nervous, he was afraid that Lin Hui would accidentally suffer a dark loss from his opponent or potential opponent because of his lack of experience.

Now it seems there is absolutely no need to worry.

You should be worried that those potential opponents in Lin Hui's country will not be accidentally beaten too badly by Lin Hui.

Let's take a look at the specific content of those overseas patents that Lin Hui applied for.

"Generative Text Summarization Algorithm Patent"?
Lin Hui actually got the U.S. algorithm patent and the corresponding global patent for the technology of generative text summarization?

Although He Tianchang focuses on the cultivation of professional software development talents, in fact he has not thrown away the cutting-edge knowledge of computer science.

Although he is not involved in the direction of natural language processing, he is always concerned about the research progress of natural language processing.

Stones from other mountains can be used to make jade, and sometimes learning from the research ideas of other industries can bring inspiration to one's own research direction.

He Tianchang remembered what he had learned before. Aren’t the traditional digest algorithms all extractive digest algorithms?

Generative algorithms?Isn't this a new research direction?

He Tianchang suddenly realized that he was a bit too preconceived about Lin Hui.

At first, he only thought that Lin Hui was a professional software developer, and he valued the Nanfeng APP itself.

But it ignores the real core thing of the software, the algorithm.

The algorithm is where Lin Hui's unprecedented value lies.

It is precisely because of ignoring the algorithm that he is now a little strange to Lin Hui, a person he thought he was very familiar with.

This sudden strangeness made He Tianchang a little uncomfortable.

Although he was not used to it, at this moment he also realized that Lin Hui, a classmate, was far more valuable than he originally thought.

He Tianchang destroyed all the materials of Lin Hui received from Lao Funa.

Immediately, he called Director Liu of the National Central University College Entrance Examination Office.
