"Finally, a new version of the image restoration tool has been released. I hope the added functions can satisfy users for the time being."
August 18, 2015, Jingzhou City, high-rise rental house in Lubo Garden Community.
Xu Yun sat in front of the computer and stretched. Looking back on his life these days, he could only describe it as exhausted. In addition to working overtime and typing code to add new functions to the image restoration tool, he also had to deal with various problems from users, including bug fixes and customer service. Reply and other work.
Even with Song Yupeng and Zheng Jianhao assisting him, he was still very busy.
Relying on the free recommendations provided by major Android market platforms, the number of paid images for the image restoration tool has exceeded 100,000.
It can be regarded as a tool for attracting money.
Although the increase has obviously stabilized in the past two days, so many users combined are still quite terrifying.
Deepin Technology has just registered and has not yet established a customer service channel.
Users communicate their suggestions through Penguin paid communication groups and by sending messages to Deepin Technology accounts on various platforms.
Among them, two of the most popular ones are to update the repair effects of other types of pictures, and to further beautify portrait faces and transform into beauty software.
Xu Yun developed the image restoration tool with the original intention of repairing photos to make up for regrets.
The software positioning will certainly not be changed midway.
What's more, in the beauty software market, how many people would spend nineteen yuan to edit a photo of themselves.
In his view, with the current popularity of image restoration tools, more people are simply finding them novel.
This is illustrated by the flattening of the number of payments.
In addition, from the beginning, this group of users was not the paying group for image restoration tools.
Restoring effects on other types of pictures other than portraits is definitely something that needs to be done. However, due to the complexity of the relevant algorithms and the large amount of work, this update does not include them.
He has been using deep sleep time these days and only needs five hours of sleep every day.
Apart from going to tutor Meng Qingwen, the rest of the time was spent writing new version features.
Compared with the original version, several portrait models have been added this time. After the user completes the restoration of the photo, the model can be used to make the portrait make fixed expressions.
Such as blinking and smiling.
As the model continues to improve in the future, it can be upgraded from the face to the half body or even the whole body.
Make the photo come alive in a sense.
Xu Yun yawned comfortably, and just when he was about to get up and pour himself a glass of water, the cell phone placed by the table suddenly rang.
Subconsciously lowering his gaze, a familiar note caught his eye.
"It's Sister Qin."
Thinking that the general manager he asked the other party to find may have a candidate, he immediately picked up the phone and pressed the answer button.
The past few days have made him understand more and more how comfortable it is to be a hands-off shopkeeper, so he hopes that the general manager will be in place as soon as possible to take charge of the normal operation of the company.
Yesterday, considering that both he and Meng Qingwen were about to start school, they temporarily stopped daily tutoring.
Now Zhang Hongqin's call could only be about finding a general manager for Deepin Technology.
And the situation was just as he guessed. As soon as the call was connected, before he could speak, Zhang Hongqin's soft and crisp voice came from the receiver.
"Teacher Xu."
"I have found a very suitable candidate. I can arrange a meeting for you both this afternoon."
"Very good."
"I will arrive on time." Xu Yun answered in a deep voice, holding back the excitement in his heart.
Zhang Hongqin: "Then I will send you the meeting address right away."
Not long after, Xu Yun saw the message from Zhang Hongqin, calculated the distance from the rental house, and estimated that there was still plenty of time, so he relaxed again.
…
…
Half past two in the afternoon.
Xu Yun, dressed in light-colored casual clothes, appeared in front of the teahouse mentioned in Zhang Hongqin's message.
He didn't bother to wear a suit and tie, and he didn't think it was necessary.
As a college student who is about to enter college, in his opinion, it should be an ordinary college student's dress. If it makes him have a strong business atmosphere, he himself will feel very awkward.
Besides, recruitment is a process of mutual selection between both parties. It is not good to be too deliberate.
"Sister Qin is quite good at choosing places. She is worthy of being a senior consultant of a headhunting company."
Xu Yun stepped into the teahouse and looked around at the overall style and layout. He was very satisfied with this place.
Although it is located in the busy area of Jingzhou, it does not enter the alleys, giving it a quiet feeling.
In addition, the interior presents a dark yellow warm tone, which makes the mood quiet and highly private.
Just as he stopped to admire it, Zhang Hongqin came down from upstairs and greeted her hurriedly: "Teacher Xu, you are here. The other party is already waiting in the private room upstairs. I will take you there."
"Okay." Xu Yun nodded.
Following Zhang Hongqin to the private room upstairs, the other party took the initiative to open the door and made an inviting gesture.
"Teacher Xu, please come in."
Xu Yun stepped into the private room and immediately saw a young man in his thirties sitting at a low tea table with a briefcase in his hand. He was obviously the person Zhang Hongqin said was willing to apply for the general manager position of Deepin Technology.
"You are Mr. Xu, you are indeed as young, handsome and talented as Hongqin said."
When the other party saw Xu Yun coming in, he quickly stood up and took the initiative to say hello, always with a calm and natural smile on his face when he spoke.
At this time, Zhang Hongqin turned and left the private room, leaving Xu Yun alone to chat with the other party.
"Please take a seat."
Xu Yun asked the other party to sit down again and looked at him carefully.
She has thick short black hair, two single eyelids, and a rather gentle and tough face, which makes people look very impressive.
But for some reason he always felt familiar.
Just as he continued to search for memories in his mind, he saw the other party took out a resume from his bag and handed it to him.
"Mr. Xu."
"This is my CV."
Xu Yun reached out to take it and opened it. After seeing the name at the top, his expression suddenly changed slightly.
"Meng Songyan."
As he muttered the name in a low voice, he suddenly thought of something and quickly raised his eyes and asked, "Are you Qingwen's father?"
"Yes." Meng Songyan answered truthfully.
He looked familiar when he first saw the other person, and since they both had the same surname, he made a bold guess.
After getting the accurate reply, he immediately recalled that he had seen the family photo on Meng Qingwen's desktop, and the man in it was Meng Songyan.
Only because Meng Songyan was away from Jingzhou City during his tutoring period, the two of them never met.
However, Zhang Hongqin actually hired her husband. This operation really surprised him. No wonder Zhang Hongqin made it clear that day that he would only use personal resources and would not charge any fees.
It does seem personal enough now.
Xu Yun believed that Zhang Hongqin would not do this for no reason, so although he was a little confused, he did not stop moving his hands and still carefully checked Meng Songyan's resume.
