It's too late August. Soon, the university will welcome new students.
The last wave of fourth-year students who had completed their complementary exams dragged their luggage and as they headed towards society, they waved to their youth. A group of newly graduated high school students will flood the university campus, opening a new chapter of their youth.
This will soon be the most crowded period of the year.
The student union members had returned to school and they were busy holding meetings to welcome the new students.
Although he was not at the meeting, Lu Zhou was also busy. He was holding a large stack of leaflets and was about to start doing his old job.
He would hand out the first flyer when he was stopped by the vice president of the student council.
Lin Yuxiang looked curiously at Lu Zhou's piles of brochures and asked, "What are you doing?"
Lu Zhou had an awkward expression when he realized he was caught.
"Oh, you can't stick a flyer here?"
Lin Yuxiang said innocently, "Although I can pretend not to see anything, it will still be immediately taken by the other student union staff …"
It's troublesome …
Lu Zhou was thinking about what to do. Lin Yuxiang walked forward and looked at the brochure.
"Campus train application? Wow, I didn't know you knew how to program. Did you write this yourself?"
Hey, you're too close to me …
Lu Zhou subtly retreated half a step back and asked, "Yes, why?"
"Why don't you post it on our school's Tieba forum? The students who are already here probably won't use the ticket purchase application right?" Lin Yuxiang pointed out.
Do you think that I haven't thought about this?
Lu Zhou said reluctantly, ". It is forbidden because it is marked as an advertisement."
Lin Yuxiang's eyes twinkled and he smacked his fist into his palm.
"Oh, so. Then I'll clean this up for you."
Lu Zhou was surprised, "Overcome to it?"
Lin Yuxiang was playing with her hair. He smiled and nodded, "Yes! Our school's Tieba Forum is managed by a student union. The administrator account is used by the president of the union and I can only tell him about your situation. You can paste it on the forum for a few days "Oh yes, send me a QR code or APK file. I've heard that many students post on Tieba about the difficulty of getting a taxi."
Lu Zhou was surprised.
"Really .. Thank you very much!"
Lin Yuxiang smiled, "There's no need to thank me. I have to thank you."
This…
Power has connections?
He was only an ordinary staff during his first year, but now, he was the vice president of the student union.
Lu Zhou looked at him walking away and could not help but think.
A scary woman …
But apart from that, I thank you!
He was initially quite angry at this "useless" teammate, but now he had nothing to complain about.
Waita minute…
Lu Zhou's heart moved, it seemed like he realized something.
Many students ask about taxis …
Demographics of the target application "Campus Train" - it is students.
"Getting a taxi is a problem. Not just a taxi .." thought Lu Zhou. When he first arrived, he even went to the wrong campus. He started to seriously think about this matter. "It is quite possible to add a student route to the main application interface and have the option to depart from school and travel to school. This can help new students to buy tickets and also give them the shortest transportation route."
"But then I have to crawl the data from the main bus station .. Wait a minute, I can directly crawl the data from third-party maps. Baidu Gaode has a transportation system! How I forgot this!"
The more Lu Zhou thought about this, the brighter his eyes became.
The students not only travel by bus and subway, but they also travel by car. They will get off the train and carpool using a taxi without permission.
Even if the students did not want to carpool, they could still find another group of students to travel with.
It is easier to travel than from school. Many high schools have a direct subway line to the university. However, it is not easy to leave school, especially when they get off the train in their hometown. If there is a need for carpooling, the students can find other students by carpooling. It would be better than carpooling with a stranger.
How many universities are there in the country?
How many students?
Even if he managed to only reach half of the market share, his number of users would still be huge.
In addition, the location of the user group will be tracked accurately and of unimaginable value.
Lu Zhou stopped hesitating. He immediately returned to his dorm and started writing version 0. 12 updates.
[During this major update, the app will remember (bind) the user's university and train information. If users are tied to university information while sitting on the train, they can find out how many other students on the train are also using this "Campus Train" app. ]
[Add friends features, messaging, carpooling, travel route notifications .. This is a must. I can also add group chats to increase user usage. While it will take a lot of work, there are a lot of issues involved as well, I have to push this back later. ]
[Because of the number of changes I had to make to the core code, the amount of work required was huge. Coupled with the addition of sub-features for students, the entire user interface must be customized]
To save time, Lu Zhou consumed 150 common points. He handed over some difficult parts of the code to the system to solve. He then copied the code from his memory to the app. He finally completed the final stability test before the end of August.
The average balance is 775.
"Uploaded update ..." murmured Lu Zhou. He took a deep breath before saying, "This change is very surprising. I wish I could stand out from other apps."
He saw the download number. It was only 15.
Lu Zhou tried to comfort himself. That's double the number of downloads version 0. 11 has ever seen. This could be considered a good start. He sent a link to Lin Yuxiang so that he could enter the Tieba school today. After that, the number of users will definitely increase.
"Oh yeah, if I can advertise on Tieba, why can't I try advertising on other platforms?"
Lu Zhou suddenly remembered that he had registered a Weibo account during his fight with Zhu Fangcai.
He did not hesitate and entered.
F* ck?
Do I get 10,000 more followers?
Lu Zhou looked at the number of followers and he was surprised.
He then saw 99+ private messages and frowned.
He clicked on it and unsurprisingly, they all either asked for his contact information or asked him to write a thesis.
F* ck, can't these people give me a price?
Maybe then I'll write a thesis for them?
Why are they so insincere!
Lu Zhou shook his head. He wrote a Weibo blog post and attached a link.
[Campus Train app released, come to download it ..]
Emm …
Kinda awkward.
How should I write this advertisement?
Lu Zhou could not think of anything and he gave up. He randomly added a line at the end.
[I will select ten fans who repost and edit their SCI theses (not signed)]
He could offer nothing but his talent.
The fans are mostly college students, so in theory, this ad should work.
Who cares if it doesn't work.
Lu Zhou hit a pole and closed Weibo.
I did the planning and the Gods will determine the outcome!
