Most of his preparations were actually... Him waiting patiently.
Because the most important thing on that night was to promote the new function of his app as much as possible. Advertising requires advertisements and advertisements had a timely effect, so the function had to be launched before the advertisement tonight.
Therefore, Su Yang had been waiting for Little Deeny to complete the development of the function on that day. He waited for an entire day and finally, after he finished his meal with Tang Xiaomi, he received the news from Little Deeny.
As a phone spirit, Little Deeny, who had 3 minutes of sunbathing, 7 days of phone calls and a huge amount of battery, had always been full of energy. However, after 2 days of hard work with her 8 cores, she was actually feeling tired.
She said to Su Yang tiredly, "Master, I've completed the development of the function. Would you like to take a look?"
Su Yang asked, "Are you alright?"
Little Deeny said, "It's just... It's probably the first time handling a matter with 8 cores at the same time, so it's a little overloading for me. But it's okay, I'll feel better after a quick rest."
Su Yang comforted her before opening up the app.
The app in his phone was obviously the latest version that Little Deeny had just completed. Su Yang tried it out and saw an icon of a little angel added in the middle section of the Findme app's bottom column with the word [Angel] below it.
Su Yang clicked on it. It was a small pop-up window that introduced the Angel Search programme. It also mentioned that the Angel Search programme was activated by default, but it could also be deactivated if the user wished to do so.
After it was activated, if a child was lost nearby, a notification from Angel Search would pop up on the home page. If the user had any information, they could enter the information inside and help forward it to others.
Next, Su Yang opened up the detailed plan for the programme. Little Deeny, who had 8 core processors, was indeed very comprehensive. She calculated the user attributes of the entire app and categorized the users in various regions. She also calculated the popularity of the app. Every page and position had a direct image as a reference.
In the end, she chose a plan that had the greatest effect but had the least impact on existing users.
Su Yang finally understood why Little Deeny was so tired, the scope of the project was indeed very large.
After settling that important matter, Su Yang felt much more relieved.
Time quietly passed as 6pm approached. Before China Central Television was broadcasted, Shanghai Satellite TV's Oriental News came first. That program was Shanghai Satellite TV's national news program. It had a strong local influence and had a fixed viewership rating in the country. However, Su Yang had never watched it before...
Until now, he had not developed the habit of watching the news.
At 6pm, Shanghai News started broadcasting. The first thing that the show broadcasted was important news about the country, followed by some important work of the various departments.
After that, it was a major event both domestically and internationally. After the introduction, it was time for the local news.
In the local news, the first news was about Su Yang saving someone.
During the program, the female host was dressed in a light yellow formal suit. She introduced the program with perfect articulation, "Yesterday, hundreds of thousands of netizens witnessed it with their own eyes. They personally participated in an artificial intelligence program to search for a missing child."
The scene changed to the only video where Shasha was missing.
The voice-over explained, "Yesterday evening, a girl named Yaoyao (alias) accidentally lost her way when she was shopping with her mother in the night market. After searching through hundreds of cameras for traces of her, the police found a video of Yaoyao being led away by someone. This girl is suspected to have been abducted by human traffickers."
"However, a lot of time had passed since Yaoyao was kidnapped, so the case had become more difficult."
"The General Manager of Jiadian Technology, Su Yang, who found out about this news. After obtaining the approval from the investigator in charge and Yaoyao's parents, he sought help from hundreds of thousands of Shanghai online users under his company's app, Findme."
Then the image changed to the interface of the search app, and pop-up windows appeared. "Please help me, everyone. A child has gone missing and she might have been kidnapped by human traffickers. Please try to provide us with as much information as possible."
As the pop-up window opened up, comments from many netizens' and various kinds of help and analysis were shown.
The voice-over appeared again. "After collecting tens of thousands of messages, Jiadian Technology used their world-class artificial intelligence technology to analyze and process all the data before finally locating the girl."
"After being rescued by the officers, Yaoyao was successfully rescued and the 3 suspects were also caught."
Following that was the interview with Su Yang.
In the video, Su Yang was wearing a decent suit. He stood in front of the camera and said righteously, "A company should have a sense of social responsibility. The development of a company cannot succeed without the people's support, hence we should also give back to users."
"Yaoyao's incident is our first time using artificial intelligence data analysis to find lost children."
"After much research, we have decided to launch the Angel Search programme. We will use artificial intelligence data to analyze it and try to help lost children reunite with their parents."
Next up was the introduction to Jiadian Technology and its Findme app.
Shanghai Satellite TV's Oriental News had very high viewership ratings, especially when many Shanghai locals watched this show. Hence, they started discussing it.
"Hey, this software isn't too bad. They actually found a child with it."
"It seems to be rather fine based on the news."
"This looks good, I'm up next."
"Me too. I'll do whatever I can to help. Those kids are so cute."
"That's right. Imagine how worried their parents must be when they're."
As a result, the number of downloads for Su Yang's Findme app rose sharply in all major stores, including Apps Store.
At the same time, Su Yang had Little Deeny update the Angel Search function quietly.
Because the function was a type of plug-in, there was no need to update the software. It could be used directly after opening. It could be considered to have connected most users seamlessly.
The news was not only watched by middle-aged and old people. In fact, some students and adults would actually watch it as well.
Su Yang's employees were speechless.
"Huh? Isn't that Mr. Su from our company? He's on TV, and looks rather photogenic as well."
"No wonder there was a notification on Findme last night, there was a lost child."
"Mr. Su is amazing."
Some of Su Yang's classmates saw it on their WeChat, some noticed it when others shared it and some saw it from a newspaper on the street.
"D*mn, is that Su Yang? Is he on the news?"
"Saved a child? Even developed artificial intelligence? Especially to save children?"
"Rescued a child from the human traffickers?"
"Su Yang looks so handsome on camera!"
Actually, Su Yang's actual appearance was only above average, charming, at most. However, they were all students and none of them had been on such national news before. Therefore, the value added to Su Yang's appearance had elevated him to a handsome level.
In Chu Xia's dormitory. "Chu Xia, Chu Xia! Look, your Su Yang is on the news!"
At Qu Xiaomeng's house. "Sis! Quick, look! Brother-in-law is on the news!"
Qu Xiaomeng was confused.
Old Zhou, who was reading the news while drinking at home, almost laughed out loud. "Not bad, not bad. Good job."
Actually, many people knew that Su Yang was involved in artificial intelligence, but the only way to find out was through Weibo.
Even though it was the era of information where everyone obtained information from the Internet, subconsciously, most people still felt that the information on the internet was filled with both real and fake news, and there was nothing special about it. However, the news on the television station was different. It was completely official and was filled with sincerity!
Therefore, Su Yang's WeChat account exploded again. A bunch of unfamiliar people sent their congratulations.
At times like that, Su Yang would feel helpless. He could only ask Little Deeny to temporarily block the notifications on WeChat and wait for the next day.
By the time the news ended, Su Yang was already in the virtual space. The incident had already started to spread and he was about to start slapping his face!
At 8 pm, Su Yang's interview program officially started airing at Shanghai TV Station.
Su Yang sat on the sofa in the living room of the virtual space and watched the interview on television. During the entire show, he had been shooting his mouth off and spouting all sorts of clever words, scaring the host into a daze.
Of course, Su Yang did not go unprepared. He even took out the recording of Little Deeny's conversation with him and used artificial intelligence to filter the data and get a fix on the location.
When the show reached its climax, Su Yang looked at the time. It was 8:30pm. 'Time to use the [Lucky Disfiguring Brick]!'
With that thought in mind, he walked out of the villa and arrived at the front yard. He then got Little Monster Bean to drag Jin Jin, who was tied up tightly, out. Ever since she failed to bully Su Yang during its previous transformation, it had been avoiding Su Yang in fear that Su Yang would take revenge.
However, its worries were groundless. Su Yang had always been magnanimous and was not someone who would seek revenge for the smallest grievance.
When the Little Monster Bean came out with a tied up Jin Jin, Su Yang started tickling it without hesitation. 'Who asked you to rebel against me that time! Slapping my butt just because you're a leopard! Scaring me early in the morning that day! I'm going to tickle you until you beg for mercy!'
Jin Jin, who was a cat, was actually... Very ticklish. Su Yang had tickled her so much that she flailed around uncontrollably as she kept saying "I won't dare do it ever again".
In the end, Su Yang only let her off after punishing her for a whole minute.
Placing Jin Jin on the floor, Su Yang coughed and tidied his clothes. He picked up the [Lucky Disfiguring Brick] that he had prepared earlier and slapped it on his face without hesitation!
