Crossover: 2014

Chapter 195

Having said that, however, Lin Hui has a hidden worry.

I don’t know that Professor He learned that Lin Huifei not only would not choose Guoyang University, but also did not choose any university in China.
But if you choose to study in an overseas university, will you still be so amiable and open-minded?
When Lin Hui revealed to He Tianchang that he was going to study at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.

Professor He didn't turn down his face as he expected.

On the contrary, he approved of Lin Hui's approach, and asked Lin Hui to see more of the world while he was young, which is a good thing.

At the same time, he also said that he would introduce some friends in the United States to Lin Hui.

When Lin Hui is overseas, he can take care of Lin Hui more.

Lin Hui was overwhelmed by this kindness from the elders, and Lin Hui hurriedly responded.

Professor He Tianchang's attitude made Lin Hui blame himself a little.

It seems that the previous thinking was too narrow.

Too underestimated the tolerance of the older generation.

He Tianchang was also very happy to communicate with Lin Hui.

The two sides have surprisingly similar views on many things.

For a moment, He Tianchang felt as if he had met a friend who had never met him.

But He Tianchang was somewhat hesitant in his heart.

After all, He Tianchang knew long ago that whether Lin Hui chose Beijing University or Mizuki, he was doomed to miss Guoyang University.

How could he be in a good mood at this time?
It doesn't feel good for anyone to find a treasure and have to sit by.

And still entrust such a treasure in the hands of someone who has always wanted to surpass you.

After learning that Lin Hui will go to the Massachusetts Institute of Technology directly as an undergraduate.

He Tianchang felt relieved all of a sudden.

Good guy, don't you Mizuki and Beijing University usually feel arrogant?

Aren't you monopolizing the top scorers in the college entrance examination every year except for a few who go to Hong Kong University?

Well now, now these two colleges and universities also have times when they are deflated.

Thinking this way in my heart, the faint hesitation in my heart before has completely disappeared.

He Tianchang chatted with Lin Hui a lot about the development of Nanfeng APP.

There is nothing easier than communicating directly with the developer himself to learn something about the process of software creation.

Uh, but this matter is nothing less than a big test for Lin Hui.

Although Lin Hui is quite satisfied with the sales of the Nanfeng APP and the professional model corresponding to the Nanfeng APP.

But He Tianchang is very dissatisfied with Lin Hui's current sales.

And Lin Hui should not have the mentality of trying to stop, but should be brave to open up.

Not just for survival, but for the profit of the product.

A virtuous cycle can only be achieved if the product is profitable.

In fact, it is not an exaggeration to say that Lin Hui is making a lot of money when it comes to the profit of Nanfeng APP.

There should be a reason why He Tianchang said this.

Lin Hui felt that He Tianchang must have calculated the profitability after taking into account the costs involved in market research, software development, publicity, channels, operation and maintenance, and the like.

If this is the calculation method, even though He Tianchang can know the sales volume of Lin Hui in the professional mode of Nanfeng APP through the third-party data.

But the net profit he calculated for Lin Hui must be much less than Lin Hui's actual net profit.

After all, according to normal thinking, many aspects such as publicity, channels, operation and maintenance after the software goes online also need to spend money.

And what is being thrown is not small money, but burning money.

It is precisely because of these factors that He Tianchang thinks that Lin Hui made this Nanfeng app just enough to survive.

It's no wonder that He Tianchang thinks this way, after all, every generation suffers from generation to generation.

Early software development was really hard.

Not only do loopholes need to be exploited in the rules, but also the operation and maintenance costs involved in the initial operation period of the software also need to be guarded by the eagle.

It may be hard to imagine now that there is such a thing as selling a house in order to develop software, but it happened often at the time.

Even in order to retain users by all means, even the most embarrassing developers now can hardly imagine what it is like to pretend to be a girl to retain users.

But He Tianchang's way of thinking is only normal.

During the project cycle involving Nanfeng APP:

The cost of forest ash is quite limited:

The various overheads of the project cycle of conventional software are generally publicity.

As for the Nanfeng APP, Lin Hui considered the core algorithm involved in the software rather than the value of the Nanfeng APP itself.

Therefore, in addition to making some articles in the slogan of the app store at that time.

Lin Hui did not spend money on publicity.

As for channels, operation and maintenance, Lin Hui didn't worry too much.

It can be said that in this case, the income from the forest ash's revenue share is basically equivalent to the pure profit of the forest ash after paying taxes.

Although this profit is completely incomparable to the profit that Lin Hui made in the game and the shortcut app that reached an agreement with Apple.

But objectively speaking, the profit obtained by Nanfeng app is also very good.

However, it is not easy for Lin Hui to explain to Professor He Tianchang in detail the costs involved in each link of software development.

It's fine to prevaricate in front of ordinary people, but in front of such a senior industry insider, Lin Hui doesn't want to be noticed as unusual by inadvertently bringing up some things that he has become accustomed to in the past few years.

Fortunately, Professor He Tianchang only mentioned it, and didn't study Lin Hui too deeply.

Afterwards, the content of the conversation was mainly to exchange some academic aspects.

And the content of the chat is something related to natural language processing.

At the rank of He Tianchang, at least he must be a full professor.

Is it okay to have an equal conversational academic exchange with a full professor?

But it's nothing to be ashamed of, and there is a sequence of hearing.

The first step is to lead the way.

What's more, Lin Hui has been ahead for seven years.

And in fact, Lin Hui felt much less pressure when chatting with He Tianchang than when talking about the same issue with Eve Carly.

Although He Tianchang also has a certain status in academics.

But through a simple conversation, Lin Hui discovered that He Tianchang is actually not very good at generative summarization algorithms.

It is also understandable that there are specializations in the art industry.

Except for a few generalists in human history, most of them are good at one field.

In short, it is normal for Daben to have something he is not good at.

But it may be because He Tianchang is not very good at natural language processing.

So when it comes to the direction of natural language processing.

He Tianchang's perspective is often very macroscopic, and this novel perspective of looking at problems from a macroscopic perspective has benefited Lin Hui a lot.
