Time Travel: 2014

In fact, the Nanfeng APP released by Lin Hui has already been noticed by industry insiders.

Nick D'Aloisio was probably the first person to notice this software.

Although it was already night time in California, Nick couldn't sleep.

No way, it's hard to sleep!

It can be said that he has been suffering from horse hoof disease recently.

This year (2014), the software he led to develop, Yahoo News Digest, also won the Apple Design Award.

This undoubtedly means that he will show his face again.

How many developers can be invited to participate in WWDC as Apple Design Award winners at the age of 18?

And he didn't become famous overnight.

The Internet industry has always been full of geniuses.

And Nick D'Aloisio is one of those geniuses.

Nick D'Aloisio (when he was 15 years old) had independently developed a mobile news reading software called "Summly".

The software can automatically condense any news content into a 400-word summary, allowing users to read the news quickly.

On March 25, 2013, 17-year-old Nick sold this software to the American company Yahoo and earned US$30 million.

After that, Nick became the youngest multi-millionaire in the world.

Later, Nick joined Yahoo directly and became the youngest engineer in Yahoo's history.

Although he joined Yahoo, his job has not changed much.

Still responsible for the operation of the news summary software.

People just have to do what they are good at.

I have to say that there is still joy in developing software.

But routine maintenance is a piece of cake.

Nick's greatest pleasure after boring work is to find similar news summary software that follows suit and ridicule it.

Although it was a bit mean, Nick enjoyed it.

Human happiness is based on the suffering of others.

He noticed the English version of Nanfeng APP almost as soon as it was launched.

As for the reason?

This software is too crazy!

The slogan actually says that it is the strongest on the surface, crushing similar software by 2 to 3 times.

This tmd is too crazy!

Are you really giving up your face just for a few downloads?

The news summary software Nick developed previously was tested to be able to outperform similar software by 75%.

At this level, I know in my heart that I am the strongest.

But Nick didn’t say in his promotional slogan that he was the strongest on the planet.

Now a news summary software that appeared out of nowhere dares to say that it is the strongest on the planet?

An unknown individual developer.

Why do you dare to say that the software you designed is the strongest?

Others could tolerate this kind of thing, but Nick couldn't.

After downloading a Nanfeng APP.

Nick discovered that this software was actually similar to the architecture of translation software.

Users can enter news articles to get corresponding news summaries.

Seeing this function, Nick despised it even more.

After all, the software he makes automatically captures news.

Then the news is summarized and a few selected pieces are presented directly to the user.

Users are inherently afraid of trouble.

When actually using it, no news reader would go to the trouble of inputting the news and then summarizing it.

This software only summarizes news but does not automatically crawl it.

It seems that the user needs are not even understood.

Nick was even more contemptuous.

But in line with the mentality of carrying out the slap in the face to the end.

Nick still found a bunch of news test articles to test how strong the news summary capabilities boasted by Nanfeng APP were.

After several sets of tests, Nick was dumbfounded.

Nanfeng APP’s performance in summarizing news is not the slightest bit better.

But it's the kind of strength that makes the air fly every second.

The accuracy is not easy to measure, but the summary speed is really fast.

That speed is visible to the naked eye.

Although Nick dare not say that such software can crush the existence of similar software on the surface.

But at least this summary speed is more than enough to overwhelm the news summary software he developed previously.

Nick experienced the software carefully.

The more I experience it, the more I feel emotional.

If there had been software of this level, Nick felt that he could have asked Yahoo for $50 million.

Speaking of payment, Nick was surprised to find that this news processing software that works every day and every second does not have a single payment point.

There aren't even ads.

With such awesome technology, why do developers bother to make money from it?

Nick expressed his confusion.

He felt like something was broken in his body.

Isn’t the $50 million worth of stuff that his values ​​advertise worth a penny?

The pride he had been so proud of in the past turned out to be vulnerable.

Nick felt so depressed and depressed.

…

…

Silently he pulled his girlfriend over.
