Chapter 207 Upgrading Shi Gandang



Su Wu was full of confidence in front of Gao Qiang, but his heart was pounding with shyness.

If it hadn't been brought up today, he probably would have completely forgotten about the Shi Gandang antivirus software.

He has too many things to do, and he has to handle most of them all by himself. He doesn't have the energy for that.

If he hadn't incurred the displeasure of the authorities by posting random advertisements online, he probably wouldn't have remembered Shi Gandang at all.

To be honest, Shi Gandang was just a Frankenstein's monster that he created out of boredom.

Although he felt that this field had great potential, he did not make it his focus of development.

But no one expected that this software, which he created so casually, would become a sensation in China within a year.

However, since it was free, Su Wu didn't take it too seriously after satisfying his small sense of accomplishment.

The only time he mobilized Shi Gandang for profit was when he gave Ruyang Beverage a simple advertisement.

He hasn't done anything since then.

Due to his advanced technology, he hasn't updated it for almost half a year.

Even so, Shi Gandang is still the best free software in China at the moment.

But now that he has made such a boast in front of Gao Qiang, he has to take his attitude seriously.

Shi Gandang has already accumulated a considerable number of users and is definitely a network platform with unlimited potential.

With the vast knowledge gained from later generations, Su Wu's imagination ran wild, and one idea after another emerged.

If Shi Gandang is to be done well, then it is not something that he can do alone.

He needs a team with professional skills.

After dismissing Gao Qiang, Su Wu immediately contacted Judge Jiang and asked him to recruit a group of technicians for him and establish the Shi Gandang Studio.

Jiang, the judicial officer, was very efficient. In just one week, he established the Shi Gandang Studio and recruited more than a dozen technicians.

Upon arriving at the new company, Su Wu looked at the reports provided by Judge Jiang and felt a sudden pang of heartache for no apparent reason.

The investment in servers and other equipment alone was worth 20 million yuan. Even with self-production and self-sales, several million yuan was still spent.

Even after removing all the hype, the investment in Shi Gandang Studio exceeded 10 million yuan.

Even so, it's because Shi Gandang was developed independently by him and the cost wasn't factored in.

A free software studio with a registered capital of 25 million yuan is something only a fool would do in anyone's eyes.

All the employees sitting in the meeting room looked at Su Wu with an uncertain and strange gaze.

Who on earth is this person who's spending money like crazy?

Even Jack Ma and Pony Ma are still begging for money all over the world.

Su Wu ignored their stares and coughed lightly before speaking.

"Welcome everyone to Shi Gandang Studio. From now on, we're all family."

"I believe everyone is familiar with Shigandang. We currently have 9.2 million stable users, which is the largest number in China."

"We are recruiting you in order to meet the needs of our users and provide a better user experience."

Su Wu shamelessly began to boast, leaving everyone stunned.

Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment and realized that there wasn't a single "elderly person" around them.

What's going on?

Could it be that the company can't pay its employees, and all the original employees have run away, so they're hiring these new hires?

After hesitating for a while, a bold guy raised his hand to speak.

"Boss, where are our former colleagues?"

"Well..." Su Wu pinched his nose a little embarrassedly, "They've all gone out to provide technical assistance, but we'll all be able to meet again soon."

Speaking cautiously, Su Wu looked away guiltily.

He had no employees; he was a one-man army.

However, he dared not say that, lest he scare the person away.

A chill ran down his spine, and he changed the subject, saying, "Don't worry, everyone. The company will prepay you six months' salary as a way to help you settle in."

After saying this, Su Wu made up his mind to transfer a few people from Ruyang Electronic Technology Company to make a show of things later.

Hearing him say this, although everyone still had doubts, their hearts were somewhat at ease.

Su Wu dared not delay and immediately began assigning tasks.

"I hope everyone can immediately get into work mode and contribute to the development of Shigandang."

"First, everyone needs to completely upgrade the interface of Shi Gandang. The specific requirements are all in the proposals you have..."

"Then we need to embed relevant advertisements for the Longyao mobile phone into the scrolling ad module we set up..."

"The rest is the development and improvement of some related functions. All of the content is in the plan. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me."

After making a hasty arrangement, Su Wu left the rest of the work to the managers that Jiang Fashi had assigned to him.

Su Wu fled the studio as if escaping, letting out a breath of stale air.

He was really struggling to cope with the suspicious looks from everyone.

Sure enough, he's just a tech geek; he's not cut out for the work of a business tycoon.

Sighing inwardly, Su Wu felt a deep longing for talented individuals.

He can provide cutting-edge technology and funding, but operating the business requires more specialized talent.

Fortunately, Shi Gandang can still meet user needs; what it needs to do now is just some superficial work.

Urged by Su Wu, the new interface for Shi Gandang was completed a week later.

The updated Shigandang is no longer as rudimentary as before, and now has its own distinctive interface.

Looking at the small stone tablet icon with carved dragons and phoenixes in the lower right corner of the desktop, Su Wu was quite satisfied.

Double-click to open, and the simple yet sophisticated interface perfectly meets his requirements.

Looking at the advertisement space at the top of the screen, Su Wu couldn't help but frown.

These ads, which can only be seen after clicking, do not meet his needs.

After thinking for a moment, he stroked his chin and looked at the several technicians around him.

"The interface is alright, everyone can update and improve it gradually in the future. But I have an idea, let's implement it together."

"I want a pop-up ad box to appear here every hour when the icon is hidden, that's it..."

Su Wu picked up a sheet of A4 paper and began explaining while gesturing.

After he finished speaking, everyone's gaze turned strange again.

Isn't this just being a scoundrel?

They all use computers, so they naturally know how disgusting these pop-up ads are.

After finishing his explanation, Su Wu rubbed his hands together somewhat awkwardly. "This function shouldn't be difficult to implement, right?"

"It's not difficult to implement, but I'm afraid it might lower the user experience?" the technical manager asked hesitantly.

Su Wu blushed slightly and raised his chin. "The software is all free now, but everyone still needs to eat, right? If we don't get more advertising, how will everyone get their salaries?"

"You..."

Everyone fell silent upon hearing this.

His words left everyone speechless. It was already free, so what more could they want?
