Marvel's Antiheroes
Chapter 31 Still Short of Money
The time soon came to get off work. Duke cleared the desk, got up and left the office.
He drove home quickly, couldn't wait to call Catherine out, and handed her the small notebook in his hand.
"Catherine, is it difficult to make such a software?"
Catherine took the book and looked at the requirements written on it carefully. After a while, she answered: "It is not difficult to make it, but if you want to build the social module, you need a professional team to do it." Optimization, otherwise this software will be very large and the requirements for computing power will also be greatly increased.”
"Is that so?" Duke frowned and pondered: "If there is no social module, it will be homogeneous with the video sharing software on the market, and Douyin will be less attractive."
After all, it was because Duke was poor and could not afford a professional software production and optimization team.
"I don't think so." Catherine put forward her own opinion: "I think even if you put aside the social module, your software is still unique, and this model of spoofing music will definitely be very popular."
Catherine woke up the dreamer with these words.
Since Douyin can't be done for a while, let's do a weird show.
With the old American citizens’ strong genes for making fun of others and the huge number of weirdo groups, the weirdo show should be able to become popular.
"It's settled happily like that, let's make an initial version first."
Duke took another piece of paper and wrote down some of the characteristics of the fast coffee show in his memory on the paper and handed it to Catherine.
After being nourished by the moon's yin energy and pure yin energy, Catherine's body became more solid, and her "stamina" also increased a lot. She took the paper and started typing on the computer.
The rich rely on technology, the poor rely on mutation, and geniuses rely on cultivation.
Now while I am practicing cultivation, I am also moving towards becoming rich, hehe.
Duke lay comfortably on the sofa, watching Catherine work and ejaculating.
I have mastered two of the three ways to become stronger in the Marvel world. As for the second one, forget it.
There is a comic in my mind that says that Spider-Man and Mary Jane ooxx released an army of billions of descendants and made each other terminally ill.
It's terrifying to think about it. Thousands of tadpoles with spider genes burst into Mary Jane's palace. It's like a miniature version of Alien Invasion.
It's tragic to think about it, poor Mary Jane, she was happy for a moment, but ended up miserable for the rest of her life, even worse than the boy who ate slugs.
But if it's something like heart-shaped grass, you can still consider it.
Safe, hygienic, environmentally friendly, no side effects
Catherine is very capable. It only took three days to create the app Duke needed and test it.
But Catherine is not omnipotent. There is no way to compare with super geniuses like Tony Stark and Ivan Vanko, who can handle everything by herself.
So Duke faces a big problem, and that's money.
"Master, after my screening, the most cost-effective database engine that is most suitable for Douyin software is exq3 from Red Bird Company. The annual usage fee is US$."
Duke picked up the computer and read the introduction on the page.
The database engine is the core service for storing, processing, and protecting data, allowing you to control access permissions and process transactions quickly.
According to Catherine's idea, users can find the music they want and load it into the Douyin app, and then use the camera to record their own short prank videos.
In this way, Duke's company can avoid the trouble of music copyright at the beginning of its business.
When the company develops to a certain level and starts to add other modules, it will then discuss purchasing copyrights with major music companies.
At that time, the company had already raised a lot of funds, so it had the strength and confidence to purchase copyrights.
However, even so, Duke does not have enough money to support the launch of this project.
Even in the United States in this world, the protection of patent rights is still jealous and strict. If you want to use other people's engines without spending money, the company will soon become someone else's.
So he had to spend half a million dollars before he could put the software on the shelves.
He has more than 60,000 US dollars in his bank account, and he relies on the saving habit brought about by his Chinese blood to be able to have these savings.
Like his two colleagues, Fatty Morgan started working earlier than him, but he didn't have much savings, and basically spent all the money he earned on electronic equipment.
The same goes for Beauty Elissa, a member of the Moonlight Clan.
Fortunately, Catherine was indeed a strong person with an actuary certificate and immediately put forward her suggestions.
The first step is to apply for a patent.
The second step is to find an entrepreneurial support fund or investment fund.
"Entrepreneurship Support Fund" Duke said doubtfully: "I have graduated from college a long time ago, and I can still apply for this thing."
He was talking about college student entrepreneurship support programs in the United States, such as the Maria Foundation named after Tony Stark’s mother. However, when he was eligible for this policy, he had no projects.
Catherine tapped on the keyboard to open a web page, and then turned the computer to Duke.
"Howard Stark Foundation"
"Yes, the Howard Stark Foundation, the fund established by Tony Stark in memory of his father, the late Stark Industries founder Howard, is different from the Maria Foundation established in memory of her mother. It only provides assistance to college students. The Howard Foundation provides assistance to all valuable scientific and technological projects." Catherine turned back the computer and continued: "This is not the only option. I will send applications to eleven foundations, but , the conditions of the Howard Foundation are the most favorable.”
Big dogs are everywhere
Duke touched his nose speechlessly and asked, "What if none of these foundations approve the application?"
Catherine opened a page, turned the computer to him again and said: "This is the second thing I want to say. I hope you can open a securities account. Believe me, depositing money in the bank is the most uneconomical thing to do. I can help you choose a few stocks.”
"Okay, I'll do as you say. I hope you won't lose all my money." Duke opened an account online using his social security number.
Catherine smiled and said: "Don't worry, the pocket money I used to buy toys was all earned from stock trading. Don't doubt the ability of an actuary and hacker's mind in the stock market."
"I hope so," Duke muttered.
In fact, he is not without money. He has millions of dollars hidden in several corners of the city.
It's just that the money was stolen from gangsters who bought drugs and arms. It was all black money.
It's okay to use some as pocket money, but if you want to spend 500,000 to buy the right to use the database engine, it's a suicide.
Think about it, even the Kingpin had to launder large amounts of cash into numbers on bank accounts, let alone the current little policeman Duke.
