"Then Xiao Li, please go on, why should our software pursue simplicity?"
The female artist bowed her head and pondered for a moment, combined with what Ye Tian said about the user group topic before, she tentatively asked:
"Is it... because if the operation of our software is too complicated, few people will know how to use it, which will affect the promotion of our software?"
Ye Tian immediately laughed, nodded, and confirmed the reason she said:
"Think about it, if the shooting function of our Douyin software is very complicated, and there are a lot of parameters to adjust such as exposure, aperture, and FOV value, then only a few professional users can understand it!"
"Don't think that this will make our software high-end and rich in functions. In fact, this is exactly our failure, because in this way, it will be difficult for ordinary users to use it!"
"Conversely, if you think about it carefully, if an ordinary person who doesn't know how to take pictures or photography skills opens the software, if we make those so-called rain special effects, beauty special effects, etc. Isn't it convenient for all users to operate the key?"
"No matter the user's education level, IQ level, or age level, they only need to tap with a finger to load interesting special effects such as changing avatar, face, and voice that are preloaded in our software!"
After Ye Tian finished speaking, he stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows, looked down at the city night scene outside the building, and came to a decisive conclusion:
"What I hope is that our Douyin software will be able to connect tens of thousands of users from different regions, different occupations, and different identities in the future! Let them record their own lives and share other people's lives without leaving home. happy!"
Chapter 884 Difficult question!
Ye Tian looked around at the employees who were watching over, and continued:
"No matter whether the user of our software is an old man or a child, a man or a woman, as long as he uses our software, we must let them get started in a short time and experience the fun of our software soon. !"
"The fundamental principle I ask you to design this app software is to give users the most concise and interesting experience in the simplest way of use!"
When the female art designer next to her heard this, her face was full of excitement, and she nodded frequently to show that she understood Ye Tian's words!
And the eyes of the surrounding employees looking at Ye Tian also revealed a sense of admiration!
All of them have faintly realized at this moment that they seem to be participating in a very remarkable thing!
After working so hard for so long, this group of new employees has a lot of admiration for their boss Ye Tian in their hearts!
Because with the increase in contact, they all gradually felt that Ye Tian seemed to understand everything, and his judgment on the future of the industry was very precise. Every time he made a design, he could speak with reason and evidence, which was convincing!
Therefore, many employees felt in their hearts that the vibrato software developed according to Ye Tian's design and planning is likely to be able to greatly change people's lives and entertainment methods!
Encouraged by such joyful emotions, the morale of the company's employees is very high, and the development of Douyin software is also progressing very fast, which makes Ye Tian very happy.
But who would have thought that the good times would not last long, after another week of hard work by the R&D team of the company, a thorny problem appeared!
When the Douyin software was developed into the user data analysis program in the background, technically it began to encounter very difficult problems!
What Ye Tian wants to do is to hope that the background of the Douyin software will automatically analyze users based on their personal information and preferences, and then automatically push different types of recommended videos to them based on the modeled user models.
For example, if the background software judges that a certain user is a housewife around 40 years old, most of the videos pushed to her will be some household tips, kitchen cooking videos and so on.
At the same time, the targeted advertisements for her will also tend to be more about household items such as oil and stain remover detergent, cheap and easy-to-use mops.
And such a function seems very simple to say, but in fact, it is very difficult to actually make it and make it effective!
How does the background program judge that this user is a housewife?
Then what is the age, personality, and hobbies of this housewife?
If the judgment of this information is wrong, the virtual user model will have a big deviation, and the background recommendation will lose its effect!
For example, what if the user is not actually a 40-year-old woman, but a 20-year-old new wife?
Then she may prefer to watch the videos, those beautiful makeup videos, those sweet dog food videos between couples, and what she wants to buy are also the items that newlyweds need!
Or this user is indeed a 30-year-old woman, but she is not a housewife, but a rich woman who likes to do manicures and hair.
Then she is more likely to like to watch celebrity gossip analysis, watch various beauty and beauty videos, and she is willing to buy some beauty products and skin care products.
To be able to accurately classify user types, the background program of the software must have a certain amount of artificial intelligence, that is, have the ability to analyze and judge logically!
This kind of large database with multiple functions, even in later generations, requires a long period of technical accumulation before it can initially take shape!
When Douyin started to operate in the later generations, the videos that were pushed were all kinds of strange, all kinds of pushes would be there, and the pertinence was not very strong.
However, with more and more user data, coupled with the maturity of big data technology, Douyin's intelligent analysis will become more and more logical, and it will become very suitable for users' preferences!
Ye Tian originally thought that relying on the technical level of these recent graduates and his own understanding of the Douyin software of later generations, it should be enough to handle the development of the client program of his Douyin software.
But the current situation has shown that Ye Tian still underestimated the professional difficulty of this software!
Douyin can achieve such a large scale in later generations, it must not be as simple as it seems on the surface!
The client ontology may be easy to develop, even if it is difficult, it can be developed slowly over time.
However, the large database function of the software background that analyzes users' preferences, and the function of screening out suitable video recommendations for them in the shortest and fastest time, really makes people wonder how to start.
Even though Ye Tian has the experience and experience of later generations and knows that he should do it this way, how to make it like this is not as simple as just opening and closing his mouth!
Such a difficult software must be carefully developed by professionals to have a chance to develop it!
But at this time, the group of fresh graduates in Tianyin Company are all new employees who have just officially entered the industry, and their experience is really lacking!
Their professional technical ability, when used to deal with some elementary or intermediate difficulty situations, can be done so-so.
But now when they encountered a task of advanced difficulty, they immediately fell into confusion!
This is like those apprentices who have studied engraving for several years. If you tell them how to engrave and then let them start to make it, they will be able to engrave it for you.
But now if you give them a piece of wood and ask them to make a beautiful wood carving from scratch, they will be dumbfounded!
This kind of ability from scratch requires the slow accumulation of time and technology, and requires a process of continuous improvement!
Ye Tian gathered all the staff and worked hard for almost a month to complete a prototype of a background intelligent program, but there are still many problems and loopholes!
The organization has tested several times before and after, no matter how to find and fix it, there will be a problem that the software analysis program crashes and freezes.
The development of the software suddenly fell into a dilemma!
Ye Tian refused to admit defeat, and continued to lead the staff to study hard, but after three days in a row, he searched all the software codes almost twice, but he still couldn't find out where the problem was. state.
As the saying goes, an old family is like a treasure.
Sometimes there are no old seniors in charge, and when something goes wrong, the young people really don't know what to do!
Chapter 885 Seek help from the boss!
After repeated attempts, they all failed, and Ye Tian had already seen that, relying on the few cute new employees under his current staff, it seemed that there was little hope of achieving results.
So Ye Tian had to go to Wuyang University of Science and Technology in person again, found the head of the Department of Computer Science he had worked with before, and asked him for help in finding a more professional software development engineer.
