One evening in 2015, I received a call from my friend.
"Brother Fei, I want to recruit a programmer," my friend asked.
Blablablabla, I boast, said a lot of high standards and strict requirements.
"Brother Fei, why don't you join us?" ”
I know my old friend's entrepreneurial project, playing high-tech pig. It is said to have a product that is a bracelet for a pig. An old friend, after all, is an electronic doctor. I'm a yard farmer, I'm afraid I can only give pigs a H5 game.
But it's good to have fun with friends. I come from a playful Sagittarius and enjoy the fun of doing things with trusted friends. Besides, my old friend promised me only to worry about technology.
I ' m in.
The first time to enter the pig farm, is a soul baptism.
There are so many pre-entry plays. The disinfectant was sprayed for a minute and then bathed eight times. The level of prevention and control is higher than in the military zone, says the farm. I was in awe, and entered a large house with a Sacred Heart.
The shining white are all pigs.
Modern Pig Farm
The entire building is two hundred or three hundred meters long, divided into small compartments. Each pig wears its own compartment and occasionally emits two whined. There was a leaky stool on the floor, so there was no thought of the mountains of dirt. The ventilation system sucks away most of the stink, but the deny themselves air is unavoidable. Suddenly heard the sound of the Hua-hua, all the pigs are agitated up. Feed is automatically transported along the pipe to each cubicle, and the time of the material is put. Looking at the pig, I began to compare life and pig birth.
Field and secretly told me that the construction of the farm spent a billion. A dog's Day is Jin GUI than a man.
The country eats 700 million pigs a year, each eating half a pig. Naturally, China is also the first big pig country. These two years are on the industrial upgrading, the major aquaculture groups are introducing high-tech. Wearable devices like the bracelet, all over the street. It must be easy to follow a wearable device for a pig.
So, design, proofing, open mold, supporting software development ... In a busy, enthusiastic. The first version of the product came out, merrily, hurriedly rushed to the pig farm test.
The pig dumped twice and the product fell off.
People buy a smart watch will be distressed, pigs on electronic products can not so love. The later story is much simpler and fails n times. Originally two months of research and development plans to lengthen to two years, the major version has been updated 6 generations, the product of hope is still a little slim. Another year of spring, look out of the window trees sprout, in the heart muttered why old and pig.
At this time, my old friend was next to a front-line phone,
"Put it on?" ”
"No stress?" ”
"Is the signal normal?" ”
"Is the data accurate?" ”
The old friend hung up, so excited that he couldn't speak. I am very calm:
"I just said, insist is a successful mother." ”
Wearable Products for pigs
Wearable products get to several big customers. These major customers are the pig industry's big guy, one of the most listed companies. Other people's success is to open a BMW to marry mating, from the pinnacle of life. The success of my old friend and me is that we can go to more pig farms.
As a programmer, I will naturally pay attention to the pig farm software. Big Pig farm informationization have been engaged for ten or twenty years, ERP software, database, mobile, cloud, small program all play to slip. However, for the attention of the first-line workers on the pig, a number of mobile phone entry information, there is always some inconvenience. This problem is also a long time no solution.
Of course, for a programmer (who is also a product manager), there is nothing that can be done.
So, I pulled a few people, make up AI pig. The goal is simple, with video analysis to eliminate manual data entry. I also gave this product a wind-up name:
Sky Tent
When I introduced the name to the development team, I knew that the development of the small partner's heart was broken. No one wants to be the eldest of the two diseases. What's more, I said "Ai pig", always a bit of the title of the party's meaning.
After the introduction of products, I habitually summed up: "This thing is not difficult, you can easily get out." ”
"Flying brother said simple, generally not simple." "Someone muttered, I pretend not to hear."
Legend of the "canopy" on-line, the industry boss took the lead under the order. The little friends were so excited that I pretended not to see them.
What programmers think is nothing more than creating products. If the product accidentally changed the industry, it is more exciting abnormal.
This pig is not to be held for three years.
