Spiritualist In Korea: Chapter 478 Can you still play like this with retouching?
Haas turned on the computer, installed the software, and started to demonstrate for Li Mo and Philip.
"This is a photo filter software, not a novel idea. There are many similar software on the Internet, but I added my own ideas to change it."
Haas briefly explained the software design concept, then clicked on the software and clicked on a photo, "I only designed ten filters for the time being, using the style of world famous paintings, such as Da Vinci-Mona Lisa's smile. , Van Gogh's sunflowers, etc."
I saw Haas's simple operation and chose Van Gogh's sunflower filter to retouch a landscape photo into a color similar to that in the famous painting "Sunflower", even the lines seem to be exactly the same.
"It's quite fun." Li Mo's eyes lit up and he said to Philip, "Help me take a photo from the angle of the 'Mona Lisa's smile'."
Philip has nothing to do with it. After Kacha took a photo, he uploaded it to the computer. Haas chose the right filter, and then a wonderful 'Li Mo's smile' appeared.
Looking at his photo, Li Mo rubbed his chin and said: "The software is very interesting, but it is too easy to be imitated. I believe that as soon as it is launched, it will be difficult for giants like facebook and instagram to follow up."
As Haas said, such retouching software has actually appeared long ago, and there are many on the market. It's just that Haas's ingenuity is unique, and the filter designed is very novel. But novelty does not mean competitiveness, especially when photo sharing has been occupied by various giants at the top of the food chain, there is no chance at all.
Haas smiled and nodded, "I know, so my initial goal was to target mobile devices. Just imagine, we have launched an APP that allows users to take a photo anytime, anywhere, and then choose their favorite filter and modify it and share it with themselves. Friends, what a cool thing. And I have a long-term plan, after breaking the picture, we can also enter video filters, gifs and so on.”
"How do you solve the problem of photo processing speed? The hardware of mobile phones is not as good as that of laptop computers. If it takes ten minutes or more than half an hour to process a photo, how can you ensure that you can retain users?"
Philip did not distinguish between public and private. From Li Mo's point of view, he began to question the feasibility of the Haas plan.
For this, Haas was already prepared.
"This involves a set of algorithms I created. It can greatly reduce the speed of photo processing, but the only disadvantage is that the software users cannot use the software when there is no network. Because in my imagination, users upload photos to The server then runs the algorithm I wrote to process the photo and send it back to the user.”
"That said, it's not really a big problem. Now that the 4G network is gradually being rolled out, it won't take long before this problem won't bother us." Philip looked at Haas thoughtfully.
In this way, your good friend is really a prodigal son?
Li Mo seemed to understand Philip's complicated mood, so he asked seriously, "Haas, your idea is very good. But I have a concern, I hope you can answer me seriously."
Haas looked solemn, and understood that the final test was coming, "Please speak."
"Philip told me about your past deeds and advised me not to trust you easily. Then how do you prove that you didn't leave people for the sake of making money, but really wanted to do a career?"
The heart of defending people is indispensable, and Li Mo can't be sure that what Haas showed is not acting. If there is no convincing reason, Li Mo may not dare to invest money in Haas. After all, this is a gambler with a black background, and no one can be sure.
Philip's expression was also tense. He sincerely hoped that Haas would not be the same as before.
Taking a deep breath, Haas showed a gentle smile, "Mr. Li, I know that my past is difficult to convince. But I beg you to give me a chance, because I am not only fighting for myself, but also for mine. Lovers and...children."
Philip asked, "Haas, are you married?"
Haas shook his head bitterly, "No. I don't have money, I can't give her a stable life. Even now she's pregnant, she still has to work. I'm a rotten person with nothing. But for her and the child, I'm willing to Change myself, I don't want to see my children fall into orphanages without parental care in the future!"
Philip was silent, he understood what Haas meant, and also remembered the experience he didn't want to recall. Why does Philip love wine, food, and even all good things that make his life better? It must be said that it is a compulsion.
"Tell me the story of you and her, I'm very curious, what kind of woman can make you **** prodigal son come back!"
Philip's tone was stiff, but Haas was not angry. Looking at Li Mo, seeing that he also signaled to say something casually, he told an old-fashioned story with a happy smile.
Haas, who lived a dark and decadent life in Las Vegas, day by day, after losing all his money, suddenly wanted to learn from others to block and rob. But this man is afraid of being overpowered. Haas, a thin, frail, weak-footed man, grabbed the hard stubble. Not only did he fail, he was beaten to death and thrown in the back alley.
Then the angel appeared...
"Her name is Winnie. She's not pretty, she's even ugly. Her hair is dry like straw, and she has childish freckles on her face. But she's very kind. Not only did she save me, she took me home..."
Li Mo's teeth are sour as he listens, what the **** is this movie-like plot development? He doesn't even have to listen to know the subsequent plot development.
It's nothing more than Winnie's tenderness infecting the down-and-out Haas. The hearts of the two low-level little people slowly approached, and then they stole the forbidden fruit... After Winnie became pregnant, Haas' sense of responsibility drove him to change the current living environment. .
But Haas, whose reputation has been so corrupted that there is nothing left, no one wants to believe that he is a reformed man. As a last resort, I asked my good friend Philip, and then everything mentioned above happened.
It's a **** story, but Li Mo was a little touched, and the idea for a new book came up naturally.
"Haas, how long has Winnie been pregnant?"
Li Mo's sudden question made Haas puzzled, "I just checked, it's been two months."
"OK. I'm willing to trust you once, but I hope you let Winnie come to Korea too. That way you don't have to suffer the pain of being separated while you work."
"Really? Thank you very much!" Haas's eyes suddenly turned red, knowing that he came to Korea alone, Winnie was the most worried.
Seeing that his expression didn't seem like a fake, Li Mo was even more relieved, "Philip, I'll leave this job to you, okay?"
Philip sighed heavily and replied affirmatively, "No problem."
All the dust settled, Haas tears fell directly. The man didn't cry easily, but when it was not sad... Philip didn't know, he didn't even have money for the plane, or Winnie took out the money she saved for her private house... A woman was a waiter in a restaurant. How can Haas be unhappy about maintaining the life of two people?
"I must succeed!" Haas did not wipe away tears, and the simple words were an oath.
