Handong University's residential area …
Yu Pingan got out of the taxi, took out his mobile phone, and glanced at the specific address and house number.
Today, he was going to visit Kong Zhemin, a respected old professor in the Department of Literature at Handong University.
Professor Kong Zhemin, born in 1946, was a first-level professor and doctoral supervisor in the Department of Humanities and Social Sciences at Handong University. He was also the director of the Research Institute of Chinese Education at Handong University, the chief editor of Chinese textbooks for primary and secondary schools, a member of the Basic Education Expert Committee, the chief editor of Handong University Press, the convener of the expert group on the revision of Chinese curriculum standards, etc.
In short, he was a well-deserved master in the Faculty of Liberal Arts at Handong University and even the entire domestic academic circle.
Yu Pingan had seen many rich company executives, so there was nothing to be nervous about.
However, it was completely different to meet a real master like Professor Kong Zhemin.
Before going upstairs, Yu Pingan calmed down and seriously reviewed the preparation of the 'Useful App'.
He came today to ask Professor Kong to come out of retirement, but it was not so easy.
After receiving the development task of 'Useful App' from Boss Pei last time, Yu Pingan immediately set out to replan the entire department's business and optimize the staff structure.
Some people continued to develop and perfect the various functions of Tengda Life App, while others were drawn out to form a research and development team for 'Useful App'.
Yu Pingan was confused when he received the task from Boss Pei.
In his opinion, the development cycle of 'Useful App' was too long, and it was extremely difficult to be profitable. It was really not a very good project.
However, he still strictly followed Boss Pei's requirements and began to prepare seriously.
Yu Pingan knew very well that Boss Pei emphasized one thing when making software, and that was' iteration '!
It could be seen from the development process of his own department. From 'Top Student, Come Quick' to 'Tengda Life', this app had been revised several times. The content was constantly adjusted, and the user base for it had also changed dramatically.
It could be said that without the 'iteration' that Boss Pei had been promoting, it would be impossible to have the current success of 'Tengda Life App'!
Therefore, the new project 'Useful App' that Boss Pei wanted to do, even if it did not seem very reliable now, would always meet Boss Pei's expectations and achieve great success with iterations in the future.
Regarding this point, Yu Pingan firmly believed it without a doubt.
It was just that in the process of developing the "Useful App," Yu Pingan encountered more problems than he thought.
Boss Pei had already given the basic structure framework of this application: it was a content production platform, which should be a tree-like structure.
The trunk was a bit like an encyclopedia: the roots were keywords and basic concepts, the branches were concepts and explanations derived from the keywords, and the leaves were questions and answers for specific derived concepts.
The structure of the entire app was like a forest composed of trees: key basic concepts would be interrelated, allowing for mutual jumps within terms, or categorized searches within a general category (such as literature, physics, games, etc.).
In other words, the encyclopedia mode and the question-and-answer mode were grafted together. There was only a slight innovation in the form, but it could greatly improve the efficiency of the user's access to information.
However, in order to realize the basic structure framework that Boss Pei wanted, they would still need to spend a lot of time and effort on the details and content.
For example, how to design the sub-interface of each level of the application, how to arrange the page layout so that users can see the key information at a glance, how to allow managers to freely add and delete entries or modify the entire tree structure …
These were the key problems that product managers had to deal with.
In addition, there was the problem of content production on the "Useful App."
Since the "Useful App" was a content production platform, whether it could become popular or not depended on whether the content above was good or not.
Specifically, there were only three points:
Whether the content was accurate and could not have wrong information;
Whether the content was concise and could not have spam;
Whether the index was convenient and could quickly find the content one wanted to check.
In the end, it still depended on the person.
If the content producers on the platform deliberately released wrong information and spam to deceive traffic, then the platform would definitely not succeed.
Even if they wanted to supervise, they could only use excellent producers to supervise less excellent producers.
When it came to some professional concepts, they must still let professional big shots come forward to accurately determine whether it was correct information, wrong information, or spam.
So, where could they find these excellent producers?
Yu Pingan first thought was universities.
Of course, it was also possible to invite the big shots of various industries. For example, when it came to the Internet industry, they could invite the senior executives of some Internet giants. These people must also have real talent.
However, the problem was that these big shots were all successful people who were busy with their own jobs and careers. They might not have time to do these trivial things.
Moreover, there was a big difference between mastering knowledge and explaining knowledge.
The "Useful App" was more like a platform to explain knowledge. The encyclopedia model was actually a textbook when developed to the extreme. The questions related to encyclopedia entries were actually detailed explanations of teaching materials.
Therefore, graduate students, young lecturers, professors, and so on in universities were the most suitable candidates and the backbone of this app.
The big shots of various industries could only be used as supplements.
The "Useful App" is all-encompassing. Where should I start with this mountain-like work?
Yu Pingan first thought was some basic knowledge.
Boss Pei said that the "Useful App" was a long-term plan. It was better not to do some ambiguous problems than to make mistakes.
First, start with a certain field of basic knowledge, do a little bit, and test the water. If the effect was good, then extend it to more fields and expand step by step.
Not asking for quantity but only quality could ensure that this app was truly worthy of its name.
Therefore, Yu Pingan found the official site of Handong University and visited Professor Kong.
Handong University, especially the Faculty of Arts, was quite supportive of this cooperation. In fact, school-enterprise cooperation had always been strongly supported and advocated by the state. Many science schools and enterprises jointly carried out research, which was not new.
On the other hand, the Faculty of Arts had less cooperation with enterprises because of its specialty. If the "Useful App" could succeed this time, it would also be a win-win attempt.
What's more, Tengda Corporation was based in Jingzhou, and Boss Pei had donated to his alma mater time and time again. With this relationship, it would be much easier to talk about cooperation.
The only problem was that the college could not make a decision for Professor Kong Zhemin.
That was because Professor Kong had to teach graduate students, teach undergraduate students, and do research. Whether the old man had the time and energy to join this project as a special consultant was still a question mark.
Therefore, if Yu Pingan wanted to move Professor Kong today, he would have to use all his skills.
After calming down, Yu Pingan entered the family building and knocked gently on the door on the second floor.
A moment later, the security door opened. A gray-haired, hale and hearty old professor looked Yu Pingan up and down and said, "Boss Yu, right?"
Yu Pingan quickly said, "Elder Kong, you can call me Little Yu. I'm sorry to disturb you."
Professor Kong Zhemin smiled and said, "No, no, please come in."
Yu Pingan followed Professor Kong Zhemin into the living room, which was similar to what he imagined. The sofa and furniture were mainly made of wood, which looked very old. There were paintings and paintings hanging on the wall, and the entire wall was filled with bookshelves filled with various books.
Professor Kong Zhemin also poured a cup of tea for Yu Pingan, and Yu Pingan was a little scared.
After chatting for a while, Yu Pingan did not dare to waste Professor Kong's time. He went straight to the point and said, "Professor Kong, the leaders of the Faculty of Arts should have already told you about my intentions. Let me introduce the specific content of our app to you in detail."
"I was originally in charge of the Tengda Life App business in Tengda Corporation. Now, I'm in charge of this' Useful App 'because I want to make a knowledge-sharing community that combines the' encyclopedia 'and the' Q&A 'model …"
Professor Kong Zhemin listened carefully and nodded from time to time. Occasionally, doubts flashed in his eyes, but he did not interrupt Yu Pingan's narration. Instead, he waited for Yu Pingan to explain the starting point, specific structure, charging model, incentive model, and other content of the entire 'Useful App' before he began to integrate all this information and think seriously.
After a moment of consideration, Professor Kong Zhemin said, "Boss Yu, listening to your description, this software seems to be somewhat similar to the HowNet that searches academic documents and academic papers. What is the difference between the two?"
Yu Pingan immediately replied, "Of course, there is a big difference.
"In layman's terms, the crowd we are facing is completely different, and the goals we want to achieve are also different.
"Academic papers and academic documents, including the teaching materials of various courses in universities, are of course the most essential and cutting-edge knowledge, but it actually requires a very high threshold to understand and master these contents.
"For most ordinary people, even if they were to read this knowledge, they would not be able to understand it.
"If the goal is to popularize science, this efficiency is definitely very low.
"Therefore, the software we are making is mainly aimed at the general public. We are committed to popularizing professional knowledge in these areas to them in a more accessible way.
"What we are doing is to understand professional content with a lower cost. We are more inclined to let users' understand 'rather than' fully master '.
"The biggest difference between this software and the Q&A platform is that the knowledge on it is filtered. We will try our best to make it as free of spam as possible. At the same time, there is a more advanced indexing mechanism to greatly improve the efficiency of knowledge acquisition.
