Rebirth of the Cyber Hegemony

"How should I put it, I think even a person who has not had much contact with a computer with such an interface will know how to operate it as long as he is familiar with it."

"Yes, you are right."

Li Nan was overjoyed by his subordinate's answer.

Did he finally understand what is so great about this interface design?

The most powerful thing about this interface design is not its good-looking, nor its simplicity, but its logic.

This kind of logic can make people think of how to operate at once.

For example, there is a news design here, and a horn is drawn on it, which means that there will be news here.

Another example is the standard of a file drawn here, which represents mail.

There is a picture icon here, which means sending a picture.

There is also this sign, this button... as long as you think about it, you can probably understand the meaning.

"Great, guys, here we go."

"There are still several interface designs left, we don't want Mr. Chen to help us design any more."

"According to the idea given to us by Mr. Chen, we will redesign all the original page boundaries."

This time, Li Nan was extremely passionate.

He felt that he had grasped the true meaning of Internet software design with such a trace.

A few days later, when Li Nan submitted all the interface designs, including sub-interface design plans, to the general manager's office, Chen Yu couldn't help but secretly nodded.It seems that Li Nan is really talented, and my inspiration to him a few days ago was not in vain.

"Li Nan, not bad, these designs are simple and convenient, much better than the previous ones."

"Mr. Chen, don't make fun of me. I also designed it under your inspiration. The interface design you gave before is simply amazing, and I'm still working on it."

"Still studying."

"It must be studied, this design contains too much philosophy."

"The more you say it, the more exaggerated it is."

Chen Yu smiled: "Actually, that's it. A good software must not only be beautiful and elegant, but also take care of the human way of thinking, that is, be logical. Just like the window operation launched by the computer at that time, there was no window at the beginning, and all It is operated by code, which is too troublesome, and it is impossible for non-professionals to understand how to use it. We should do the same when developing software.”

"We should know that the software we develop is not for experts, but for ordinary people. Even if it is for experts, they hope to be logical, and the problem of human-computer interaction is designed into it."

"Human-computer interaction?"

"Yes, human-computer interaction is a science that studies the interaction between humans and systems, and between humans and computers. We humans not only need to understand computers ourselves, but also the computers we design, including computer systems and software, can also enable humans It is easy to understand at a glance. This is just like my cup in real life. When I pick up this cup, you can tell at a glance that this cup can be used to hold water and drink water. If you design a cup If you don't know where to put the water, then obviously your cup is a failure."

"So, in the future, our software will not only have to realize various functions, but we should also think about problems from the user's point of view. Do they like this function, can they use it, is it convenient for them to use, and is there any more convenient one? Operation method?"

In fact, this knowledge does not need special discussion at all in later generations.

Because in the later mobile Internet era, UI interface design is already a problem that countless people understand.

It's just that the traditional Internet has just risen, and many theories of later generations are not clear and thorough.

But now Li Nan, under Chen Yu's constant coaching, is seeing the sun through the clouds, and all kinds of things that he can't figure out are all figured out at once.

"Ah, Li Nan, why are you still here?"

"Mr. Chen, I want to continue to listen to your inspiration?"

"Uh……"

Chen Yu burst into tears.

This guy is addicted to listening.

How about that.

I'm only at this level, so I don't have so much to say if I continue to talk.

However, the pretense is still to be finished, Chen Yu said lightly: "The knowledge of computers and the Internet is as vast as the ocean, even if we spend our whole life, we may not be able to finish it, explain it thoroughly, and study it well. If you want to become one of the best, you have to go deep into the ocean, observe a lot, and practice a lot.”

"Thank you Mr. Chen for your teaching."

At this moment, Li Nan has completely worshiped him.

Chapter 122: Human-Computer Interaction

"Okay, this is the first chat interface, and you can use this as a reference for other interfaces."

Stop writing, Chen Yu handed the designed interface in front of everyone: "Xie Zhang, tell me, what is the difference between this interface and the QQ interface?"

"Much prettier than QQ."

Chen Yu asked Zhang Jianming again: "Brother Jian, what do you think?"

"Beautiful and elegant, but also very simple, much better than QQ."

Zhang Jianming also nodded.

Later, Chen Yu asked about Li Nan.

"It's not just beautiful."

Li Nan thinks from time to time: "I feel that Mr. Chen, your interface design is not just as simple as the appearance of beauty."

"Oh, Li Nan, what else?"

"Mr. Chen, I can't tell right now, I still have to do some research."

"Okay, Li Nan, take it back and study it."

Chen Yu didn't say any more.

Li Nan is a very good programmer.

However, no matter how good he was, he couldn't match Chen Yu's vision.

The reason why Chen Yu vetoed it step by step, instead of doing it all at once, was to cultivate Li Nan's way of thinking.

Software should not only look good, but also have a deeper pursuit.

……

"Brother Nan, why have you been staring at this interface design in a daze?"

Holding the interface diagram designed by Chen Yu, Li Nan returned to the technical department but fell into deep thought.

He felt that this design drawing seemed to contain countless truths, but he couldn't tell the specific truths.

There was a flash in my mind faintly, but there were some that I couldn't catch.

"What do you think of Mr. Chen's interface design?"

Looking up, Li Nan asked a few of his subordinates.

"Didn't you say it, the design is too beautiful, hang up QQ."

"That is, if we develop our instant messaging according to this interface design, we will definitely occupy the market quickly."

Everyone echoed and said.

But Li Nan shook his head: "It's too naive to occupy the market with just one interface, have you forgotten how our UC died?"

This said, everyone was a little embarrassed.

At that time, they were full of pride and thought they could compete with QQ, but it was a pity that they died in the end.

"Brother Nan, I think, Mr. Chen's design is not only good-looking, but also easy to understand at a glance, which feels very convenient."

"Oh, go on, how about a convenient way?"
