The black technology empire started with a debt of one billion

Chapter 495 510: There is no light in this Iron Man’s eyes anymore
at the same time.

Lao Ma and Goudong also noticed this information. Launching a rocket is already amazing enough, and now there is an AI dress-up function.

The most critical thing is that the AI ​​dress-up function will pose a certain threat to them.

The two platforms are likely to lose a certain number of female customers because of this. In Douyin Mall, you can try on clothes online, but you cannot enjoy this function on their platform. Every customer knows how to choose.

Even if customers don’t know how to choose a merchant, they know how to choose.

For customers, having a change of clothes and not having a change of clothes are completely different things.

But there is nothing they can do about it. They can't even handle an artificial intelligence, let alone such a powerful function as AI dress-up function. They don't know how much money they have to invest in developing such a large function.

At this time, the boss feels that there is really a lot of pressure on his shoulders. If Douyin launches new features, they have to keep up. If they don't keep up, they will be eliminated sooner or later. But if they keep up, they don't know how much money they will have to invest.

If Douyin updates new features from time to time, they won’t be able to keep up even if they flatter you, and no amount of money will be enough for them to spend.

“This function is expected to be launched in a month. Douyin will make an announcement on the day of launch. That’s it for today’s live broadcast. I will post a link on Douyin later, and everyone can go to Douyin to participate in the lottery.

But I want to reiterate here, if you are not a Chinese citizen, please do not participate. This event is only for Chinese people. "Cao Mang finished speaking and turned off the live broadcast.

As soon as the live broadcast was turned off, Comrade Xiao Wang made a phone call.

"Damn it, Cao Mang, you have created such a magical function with such a sullen voice. How do you plan to cooperate with Douyin on this function?" Comrade Xiao Wang asked.

"Deep Blue Labs will authorize this function to Douyin, which will be operated by Douyin. All profits will be split between Douyin and Deep Blue Labs at [-]/[-]. How do you plan to operate this function?" Cao Mang asked.

"Of course it is a two-way charge for me to operate it. If a merchant wants to use this function, the merchant needs to pay 4999 yuan a month. Douyin will provide users with services 5 times a day. If you want to get more services, you will have to pay 19 yuan a month. 8." Comrade Xiao Wang replied.

Although the two-way charging method is a bit cheating, the operating cost of the server is very high, and this fee is only a small profit. If you want to make more money, you have to expand more commercial uses.

"Okay, let's make it this way." After Cao Mang finished speaking, he hung up the phone.

"Has an independent version of the AI ​​imaging software been developed?" Cao Mang looked at Ding Dongjian and asked.

The independent version can generate content through text. This function is an artifact for designers. With this function, at least half of the time can be saved.

"Mr. Cao, it has been developed." Ding Dongjian opened an icon on the desktop and said.

This icon is exactly GIMP. GIMP is a drawing software comparable to PS. However, this software is free and open source. Of course, if you want to use it commercially, you must purchase a patent from GIMP.

Ding Dongjian and others spent US$100 million to buy out the GIMP patent, which means that Deep Blue Technology can sell it to the outside world after secondary development.

The AI ​​image function was made into a plug-in in GIMP by Ding Dongjian, and he began to introduce the function of AI image plug-in to Cao Mang. With the support of AI image plug-in, GIMP has surpassed Photoshop.

The first function is pixel filling, which can increase the resolution of the picture. The resolution of 1K can be filled to the resolution of 8K.

The second function is that you can use text to process images. For example, if you want to use the dermabrasion function, you only need to select the area that needs to be dermabraded, and then use the AI ​​plug-in to perform dermabrasion. The effect of dermabrasion is better than manual dermabrasion. Several times more precise.

Then there are functions such as background replacement, filling in content inside and outside the picture, and so on.

After this software is launched, it will definitely replace PS and become the mainstream image processing software.

AI can process pictures, and it can also process videos. The answer is yes, but Cao Mang was worried that someone would use it to do bad things, so he did not release the function of AI processing videos.

But when thinking about this, Cao Mang thought of a movie in his previous life. This movie was "Desperate" starring Wang Chuanjun.

In an apartment in Shanghai.

Wang Chuanjun returned to Shanghai after filming I Am Not the God of Medicine. Because he didn't like accepting endorsements and commercials, many announcements were rejected by him.

During this period, he also received many script invitations, but he didn't want to make those bad movies, so he could only stay at home and browse Weibo.

"Ring~Ring~Ring"

The dark blue MAX placed on the table suddenly rang.

[Caller: Tang Yinzhong]

Tang Yinzhong was the agent assigned to him by Tommy after he signed with Deep Blue Media.

"Old Tang, what's the matter?" Wang Chuanjun asked.

"Xiaojun, you have some shitty luck. Tommy called me just now. The boss has written a new script. The boss has appointed you as the leading actor. You can fly over tomorrow afternoon." Tang Yinzhong was very happy. said excitedly.

If someone else had invited Wang Chuanjun, he would have to read the script. When he heard that his boss had written the script, he agreed without even thinking about it. Without his boss, he would have to eat dirt at home and wait to die.

"I'll fly over tomorrow morning." Wang Chuanjun said.

"Don't you plan to read the script first?" Tang Yinzhong asked with a smile.

"The script written by the boss will definitely be good," Wang Chuanjun said.

Deep Blue Group President's Office.

After Cao Mang left the laboratory, he returned to his office.

"Ding~dong~"

After the elevator bell rang, Lu Xiaolei walked out of the elevator. She walked as fast as the wind, and she reached the desk in two or three steps.

Even though she already has four people assisting her in her work, her daily work schedule is full, and in order to save time, she can only walk in stride.

"Mr. Cao, Brother Dong said he would fly over tomorrow afternoon." Lu Xiaolei said.

Dong Ge wanted to meet Cao Mang, not because he took the initiative to meet Cao Mang, but because Cao Mang wanted to ask Dong Ge to meet him. Cao Mang wanted to take shares in JD Logistics. With JD Logistics Douyin's delivery, he could further improve A grade.

So Cao Mang asked Lu Xiaolei to make an appointment with Brother Dong. Whenever Brother Dong had time, he would fly to the capital. By the way, he could go to Liu Qianqian's house to visit Cao Yiyi. Unexpectedly, Brother Dong would fly over in person.

Facing a super capital like Cao Mang, Brother Dong had to be cautious, so he chose to fly to Shenzhen City in person to meet Cao Mang.

Business is not just about fighting and killing. Cooperation is still necessary when cooperation is needed. If Deep Blue can become a shareholder of JD.com, JD.com may be able to reach a higher level.

"Then please arrange for someone to pick him up tomorrow afternoon." Cao Mang said. "Okay, boss, I'll go back to work first if it's okay." Lu Xiaolei said.

Just as Lu Xiaolei was about to leave, the elevator bell rang again, and sisters Leng Xiaoxiao walked out of the elevator.

Lu Xiaolei saw the two of them nodded and walked into the elevator.

Leng Xiaoxiao jumped up to Cao Mang and kissed Cao Mang on the face.

"What makes you so happy?" Cao Mang turned around and looked at Leng Xiaoxiao and asked.

"Husband, my sister and I are pregnant." Leng Xiaoxiao happily hugged Cao Mang and said.

"Pregnant." Leng Xiaoxiao took out a test report from her backpack and handed it to Cao Mang.

"That's great. Then you can take care of your baby at home and leave the work to others." Cao Mang said, kissing the two of them on the mouth.

"The doctor said it's nothing to do with just being pregnant. Besides, our bodies are so good and we're not as pretentious as other girls." Leng Xiaoxiao said with a smile.

"This is your first child, so be careful." Cao Mang said.

"Okay." Leng Xiaoxiao nodded obediently.

After Leng Xiao finished reading the novel, he lowered his head and stroked her belly. This was the continuation of her life and she cherished it very much. After all, she had no other relatives except her sister. How could she not cherish it now that she had one more relative.

Seeing her sister agreeing to Leng Xiaoxiao, she had no choice but to agree.

United States January 2016, 6.

The news that Deep Blue Technology is going to launch a rocket has spread to Europe.

[Deep Blue Technology is the craziest technology company in history. Yesterday Deep Blue Technology announced its involvement in the aerospace industry. 】

[Deep Blue Technology has been leading us in the aerospace industry for more than five years. Deep Blue Technology has realized the technology of 3D printing rocket engines. 】

[A company that has only been registered for three years announced that it will launch a rocket. China’s research capabilities are beyond common sense. 】

[Deep Blue Technology will conduct a rocket launch test on the 20th of this month. How long has Deep Blue Technology been studying this in private? 】

101 Harold Green Road, Austin, Texas.

Max was blocked at the door of his home by a bunch of reporters. Max frowned when he saw so many reporters. He had already guessed the intentions of these reporters.

"Mr. Marks, this is Marcel Sullivan from the Wall Street Journal. Do you know that Deep Blue Technology is going to launch a rocket?" Marcel Sullivan asked.

"I know." Max nodded.

Tesla's current situation is not very good, so he doesn't want to offend these reporters. If these reporters write nonsense, Tesla's stock price may fall again.

Since the launch of Model 3, the number of reservations has not exceeded 3 units. Orders for other cars have also been reduced a lot because of Deep Blue Auto.

"Mr. Marks, do you think Deep Blue Technology's rocket will launch successfully?" Marcel Sullivan asked again.

"There is nothing to be proud of in successfully launching a rocket. There are too many private companies in the world that can launch rockets. Even if Deep Blue Technology succeeds, it does not mean anything. The real technology is to be able to recycle rockets and reduce costs." Marks said.

"Deep Blue will launch a Deep Blue car into solar orbit. What do you think of this matter?" Marcel Sullivan asked again.

"Launching a car into space is just a gimmick. Tesla can do it as long as it wants to, but it doesn't make any sense at all. What they do will also cause a certain amount of space pollution." Marks replied.

"Mr. Max, as far as I know, Tesla's sales have been very poor recently. When will Tesla's cars surpass Deep Blue?" Marcel Sullivan asked again.

"In my opinion, the Dark Blue car you are talking about is a pile of industrial garbage. Although Tesla cannot compare with Deep Blue Car in terms of mileage, Tesla far surpasses Deep Blue Car in terms of quality and quality," Marks said.

"Mr. Max, as far as I know, Tesla's safety evaluation is not as good as that of Deep Blue Car. You said that Tesla surpasses Deep Blue Car in terms of quality. I wonder if you can provide strong evidence to prove it?" Marcel Su stood at the side. asked Miwe Ritter, a female reporter next to Levin.

"Deep Blue cars are not yet on the market. Tesla has been driving on the road for a long time. These Teslas that are already driving are the best affirmation of Tesla." Max replied evasively.

Than security?
Deep Blue Automobile uses graphene-based aluminum alloy composite materials, which are several times stronger than the ordinary aluminum he uses.

Than battery life?
Their most powerful cars only have a range of more than 500 kilometers, and the entry-level Deep Blue cars can reach 780 kilometers. If it is enhanced to a thousand kilometers, there will be no problem.

Than charging speed?

Although Tesla also has fast charging technology, it is far behind Deep Blue fast charging.

Than the system?
Deep Blue operating system is much more powerful than their operating system.

It can be said that there is nothing that their electric cars can do.

"Mr. Max, Lithia has already tested the Deep Blue car on the live broadcast. The Deep Blue car is better than Tesla in every aspect. In two months, the Deep Blue car will be sold, and then Tesla will use it again." What is the best way to deal with this situation?" Lithia asked.

"How to deal with this is a business secret. I'm sorry I can't tell you for the time being, but there is one thing I can say. Tesla has reached cooperation agreements with Sanyo, Panasonic, LG and Sanxing.

It won't be long before we develop batteries that are even better than graphene batteries. Max said confidently.

In the past period, he has reached an agreement with Shanxing and LG to develop new batteries as quickly as possible. If they cannot develop new batteries within three years, then all the companies in their alliance will go bankrupt.

Of course, the so-called bankruptcy does not mean that the brand has collapsed, but that their battery department has collapsed.

Wang Chuanfu is not a vegetarian. During this period, he bought many companies, and the market share of graphene only increased. If they failed to succeed in three years, then they could only sell these departments to stop losses.

These companies have closed many factories to stop losses.

If they don't close these factories, they will lose money every day. Even if they close them, they will still lose a lot of money. Closing them will only make them lose less money.

In the eyes of these reporters, Max's answer was not confident at all. This Max was no longer the same Max. The old Max was a more confident man than anyone else.

There is no light left in this Iron Man's eyes.
