Technology dominance starts with learning machines

Chapter 15 Uncle
After a brief trial of the Pokemon software, the 602 dormitory group instantly became lively, with messages pouring in like a tide.

"Old Four, although your pet elf software is very creative, the interface is too simple. At least find an artist to carefully design it for you. It's really not presentable at all."

“I’m embarrassed to put it on the shelf.”

"Yes, yes, the style is indeed crude and simple! But having said that, you are still the one with ideas. You can even dig into a relatively niche market like Pokemon. You are really amazing. Your ideas are really great!"

Li Pingan took the time to look at the message in the dormitory group and replied, "It was my sister's idea."

He then continued to devote himself to the production and release of short videos.

Although I don’t know how effective such video ads are, it’s better than nothing.

"Hmm? Our sister's idea? I knew it, with your wooden head, how could it be possible for you to suddenly become so smart."

"Go away, go away. When did I become your sister? Stop trying to get close to me."

My roommates were joking with each other.

Li Pingan, who had free time again, saw the suggestions put forward by his roommates.

Li Ping calmed down and thought about it carefully, and felt that it was indeed necessary to find an artist to do professional design.

Not only do we need to design a few cute and charming pet pictures, but we also need to provide users with more image choices when hatching pets.

We also need to carefully create several sets of unique theme skins to enrich the visual experience and personalized settings of the software.

In this way, we can attract more users' attention and improve the overall quality and competitiveness of the software.

Li Pingan did not immediately go online to look for professional designers without thinking.

After all, professionals often charge very high fees, and the funds he currently has are extremely limited, so every penny must be carefully calculated and no waste is allowed.

In his opinion, if he changes his mindset, this is undoubtedly an excellent part-time job opportunity.

Providing this opportunity to familiar and capable classmates can not only save costs, but also enhance communication and cooperation among classmates, which is killing two birds with one stone.

So he quickly found the high school class group, edited and sent a message:
“Looking for a part-time artist and a front-end UI designer. Is there anyone in our class who studied this major in college?
Or if you know other classmates, that's fine. The price is negotiable, and the reward is definitely generous. If you have any, please send me a private message. "

After sending the message, Li Pingan waited for a response with great anticipation.

However, time passed by minute by minute, and after waiting for more than ten minutes, no one contacted him privately.

He was not in a hurry about this.

He knew very well that the high school classmates group usually received a lot of messages, and everyone was used to blocking group messages and setting it to a mode of only receiving but not notifying, and he was the same.

Therefore, it is understandable that the students failed to see his news in time.

"Drip drop~"

About an hour later, when Li Ping'an was concentrating on thinking about the next version iteration plan of Pokemon, the QQ message alert sound suddenly rang.

He quickly switched the interface to check, and saw a private message.

"I can do art, and some students in my major can do front-end UI design."

"How to calculate the price?"

The sender was Li Nan, my high school classmate.

Seeing this private message, Li Pingan was delighted and replied immediately:
"Artists are paid according to the drawings, 80 yuan for a painting, and front-end UI design, mainly designing software themes and layouts, is 100 yuan for a set of plans. What do you think?"

"Row!"

On the other side, Li Nan held the phone and agreed almost without hesitation.

I have nothing to do at home during the winter vacation, so I would love to have such an opportunity to make extra money. Why not do it? "Okay, I'll send you the requirements document later."

"Okay." Li Nan responded briefly and crisply.

Li Pingan spent just a few minutes to hastily write a somewhat simple and informal requirements document, and then sent it to Li Nan.

After completing this series of actions, he stood up and stretched.

The fatigue caused by sitting for a long time was slightly relieved at this moment.

Suddenly, as if a flash of inspiration passed through his mind, Li Pingan suddenly remembered something important.

He hurriedly sat back in front of the computer and quickly opened the developer backend, his eyes revealing a hint of nervousness and anticipation, ready to check the software download data.

At this moment, his heartbeat unconsciously quickened a few beats, as if the results of an important exam were about to be announced.

After some manual counting and careful verification, an exciting number appeared before his eyes.

Since its launch, the number of downloads of Pokemon has reached 1609!

This data is undoubtedly a huge surprise for Li Pingan and is cause for celebration.

Then, he couldn't wait to check the number of registered users in the software background.

Just right - 1600.

This is almost the same as the number of downloads, which shows that the vast majority of users who download the software are sufficiently interested in it and are willing to register and use it, further verifying the attractiveness of the software.

At this moment, Li Pingan's heart was filled with joy and satisfaction.

Although he is well aware that this number is somewhat inflated, perhaps after today, as the initial promotion enthusiasm of friends subsides, the number of downloads may drop significantly.

But he also had a beautiful vision in his heart. Maybe the software would be very effective and users who had used it would be deeply attracted to it and would spontaneously share it with their friends, thus driving the download volume to continue to rise and forming a strong wave of word-of-mouth communication.

Anything is possible! Who knows!

Just as Li Ping'an was immersed in various speculations about the future download trend of the software, a crisp cell phone ringtone suddenly rang, breaking the silence around him.

He subconsciously glanced at the caller ID, and was slightly stunned when he saw that it was his uncle calling.

Without hesitation, Li Pingan reached out and picked up the mobile phone next to the computer.

Gently swipe the screen and the call is connected.

"Hello, uncle." Li Ping'an's tone was kind.

"Your aunt wants you and Xiaoya to come over for lunch tomorrow at noon."

My uncle's familiar and slightly hoarse voice came from the other end of the phone, with an unquestionable tone.
"When you come tomorrow, please ride your bike carefully."

Before Li Ping'an could respond, his uncle hung up the phone, as if he was afraid that he would find an excuse to refuse.

Li Ping'an stared blankly at the phone screen that had been hung up, with a helpless smile on his face.

My uncle is also a thoughtful person and insisted that it was my aunt who called us to eat.

A rural proverb says:
Maternal uncle, paternal uncle,

My aunts and uncles are unreliable;
Real aunt, fake aunt,

The half-truth is that it’s my aunt;
Having said that, in reality, it all depends on the person.

PS: Please give me a monthly ticket~~~ Please give me a monthly ticket☆
