My Website Is About to Go Bankrupt

Fang Yang, a struggling bar singer, soul-transferred into a parallel universe where he inherited a dying website and a music academy, graduating from a student who lost both parents. He revived th...

Chapter 189, /.

After dinner, Fang Yang went up to the top floor and lay down on the hammock to rest. The cool breeze blowing from the sea dispelled the summer heat and brought a refreshing feeling.

A melodious ringtone sounded, and the phone screen lit up. "Zhao Liang," Fang Yang, his best friend from university, answered the phone. A thunderous voice came from the phone, "Yangzi, you're famous! You're super famous!"

"What's wrong, Liangzi? What's this super trending topic?" Fang Yang asked, somewhat puzzled.

"Didn't you post a video? It's super popular on Douban now! Where did you get the song? It's so good! Why is there only half of it? Hurry up and record the rest!"

Fang Yang's eyes lit up; the effect was there. "Where's the rest? I only got the inspiration from the novel 'Twin Dragons of the Tang Dynasty,' and wrote half of it. That's all!"

Zhao Liang's loud voice came through the phone, "Damn, Yangzi, you're reading novels too? Is it good? Where is it? I want to read it too!"

Fang Yang was also helpless, "Isn't there a link after the song? Just click the link and you'll be there. I highly recommend it, this is my website!"

Upon hearing this, Zhao Liang exclaimed, "Damn, Yangzi, so you're going to call me 'General Manager Fang' now? Don't worry, it's our own website, we'll definitely make sure the whole world knows about it!"

After hanging up the phone, Zhao Liang immediately started shouting in his classmates' group, friends' group, and WeChat Moments: "Yang Shen confessed that the song 'Can't Find Someone to Grow Old With' was inspired by 'Twin Dragons of the Tang Dynasty'. Support Yang Shen, support 'Twin Dragons of the Tang Dynasty'! Here's the link!"

Not satisfied yet, Zhao Liang went to the Doule short video website, highlighted the key points in Fang Yang's video "Twin Dragons of the Tang Dynasty", added the above sentence, and forwarded it!

After hanging up Zhao Liang's call, Fang Yang logged into Doule's account. As soon as he logged in, a series of beeps sounded. The message notification was already 99+ and was still rising rapidly. Fang Yang checked and saw that there were already over 100,000 reposts, tens of thousands of comments, and over 20,000 followers.

Clicking on the comments, you see all sorts of random comments, such as, "Holy crap, what an amazing song! It gave me goosebumps!"

"That guitar playing is really good, is it professional?"

"This scenery is beautiful! Do you know where this place is? I really want to go and see it!"

"This guy is so handsome! I'm mesmerized just by looking at his profile. I want to take him home!"

"I want the full song! Why did it stop halfway through? Bad review."

"I can't find the song online, can you tell me the song title?"

"Hey upstairs, am I the only one who noticed the book downstairs, 'The Legend of the Twin Dragons of the Tang Dynasty'? I'll go check it out first!"

Opening the messages, most were greetings from classmates, and some were inquiring about the song title. Fang Yang replied to those he was close to, and also asked them to recommend "Twin Dragons of the Tang Dynasty". Due to the circumstances, Fang Yang was now doing everything he could to promote the website, asking for attention and subscriptions. As long as people read it, Fang Yang wasn't afraid of not getting hooked.

Suddenly, a "ding-dong" sounded in his mind, and a mechanical voice said, "The host's popularity value has reached 10,000. Reward: Intermediate Hand Speed. We hope the host will continue to work hard!" His hands twitched for a moment, then stopped immediately. Fang Yang moved his fingers and felt that they were lighter than before.

Really wanting to give it a try, Fang Yang got up and went to the study to copy books, wanting to see if his copying speed had improved.

Fang Yang checked the data in the website's backend and found that the initial traffic generation was effective, with more than 12,000 subscribers, more than double the number at noon. The comment section below the novel was very lively; Fang Yang glanced at it and saw that there were already several thousand comments, many of which made him smile wryly.

As he flipped through the pages, many were urging for more updates, many were praising the novel's novelty and interest, and many more were applauding the protagonists' experiences. Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling quickly attracted a large number of fans, both male and female. In just half a day, and on a weekday no less, they had gained more than 6,000 fans, which made Fang Yang very satisfied.

Fang Yang opened the document and continued copying from the book. This time, he found that his typing speed was much faster, more than half as fast as before. It was no longer like playing cat and mouse with his fingers. The sound of typing on the keyboard was even somewhat pleasant. Fang Yang was very immersed in this feeling. He typed until 10 o'clock and actually wrote another 10,000 words!

Yang Huajin called, and Fang Yang answered, "Xiao Yang, my friend read your novel and gave it a very high rating. He'll be posting a strong recommendation on Weibo tonight."

Fang Yang smiled and said, "Thank you, Uncle Yang. You didn't drink too much tonight, did you?"

Yang Huajin also laughed and said, "It's nothing, but something is strange. Since this afternoon, a lot of new people have been registering accounts on the website. Our website traffic has more than doubled!"

Fang Yang laughed and said, "I know about this. I posted a short video on Doule this afternoon, which attracted a lot of traffic. Tell Uncle Chen to be careful to avoid the website crashing due to excessive traffic. The website should be able to withstand at least tens of millions of traffic!"

Yang Huajin was a little surprised: "You young people really have ideas! Don't worry about the bandwidth. When your dad designed it, it was designed for tens of millions of bandwidth. The entire data center was originally designed for a maximum bandwidth of fifty million. If the bandwidth becomes too high, we'll immediately activate the backup servers."

Fang Yang was also a little surprised. He didn't expect his father to have such big ambitions back then, actually designing a server room with a capacity of 50 million bandwidth. Now, Fang Yang has been spared any worries.

"Alright then, Uncle Yang, you've had a long day, get some rest!"

"Okay, Xiaoyang, you should get some rest too!"

At this time, Fang Yang's short video from that afternoon was going viral online at its peak. Countless people were browsing short videos after work when they saw this one and were immediately amazed. In a world full of catchy pop songs, a song as profound as Fang Yang's was truly surprising. They immediately recommended it to their friends. As a result, five out of ten short videos on Douyin (TikTok) featured the song "Can't Find Anyone to Grow Old With," and it quickly spread to other websites. Douyin's platform noticed this surge in traffic and immediately promoted it across its entire platform, causing the whirlwind to grow even stronger!

On the other hand, Zhao Liang's short videos highlighting key points created a sensation at the Central Conservatory of Music. Some people who liked listening to music were drawn in by the highlights, and one by one they became fans. As a result, the videos spread throughout universities in the capital. Students have always been the main force in music and reading.

The catchy music and the novel's novel and captivating plot quickly sparked widespread discussion among students. In particular, after hearing that the song was inspired by "Twin Dragons of the Tang Dynasty," the number of people following the link to Fang Yang's page and reading the novel increased exponentially, and the word spread further across the country.

The herd effect emerged, and traffic on the comedy platform surged rapidly. The reposts and comments pushed the video into the top ten most popular videos of the day. The popularity in other provinces also quickly followed suit. Some of the top live streamers on the comedy platform also jumped on this wave of traffic, changing the background music to "Can't Find Anyone Forever," which also caused a surge in traffic!
