When Qin Jianming saw that his Weibo was being ridiculed by countless netizens, he immediately became a coward.

He simply couldn't understand why Xinlang Voice Software, being "large and comprehensive," couldn't compete with YY Voice Software, which was "small and refined."

Do Chinese netizens prefer small to large?

Qin Jianming was quite depressed and hid at home alone, drinking to drown his sorrows.

...

Just as YY Voice was becoming a huge hit, Facebook quietly began to gain popularity in major universities across the United States.

Facebook only allows college students to register accounts, which gives it a high level of prestige and makes it highly regarded by countless college students in the United States.

"James, campus belle Doris Jenny shared a set of photos on her Facebook account! Oh my god, I swear, these photos are fucking sexy. One look and my adrenaline surged. I wanted to pin her down on the desk in the classroom and have a deep, passionate encounter with her!!!" A white, blond young man excitedly walked into the dormitory and couldn't help but blurt out his inner thoughts.

James White was a good student, and he was already used to his roommate Lawrence Tuttle's foul language.

However, he rarely saw Lawrence Tuttle so excited.

"Lawrence, what is Facebook?"

“Oh, James, you don’t even know Facebook!” Lawrence Tuttle exclaimed in surprise, then explained, “Facebook is a recently launched social networking site. Accounts must be registered with real names, and only online college students like us can register. Currently, Facebook has swept across colleges and universities across the United States. I’m afraid only someone like you, who is focused solely on his studies and oblivious to everything else, wouldn’t know Facebook!”

As he spoke, Lawrence Tuttle immediately picked up his laptop and opened Facebook to show James.

"Look, this is Facebook. What do you think? The website interface is simple and stylish, not bad, right? Most importantly, Facebook is a social networking site. Because it requires real-name registration, the authenticity of identities is extremely high. We can directly search for classmates we want to know and follow on Facebook. For example, I follow the Facebook account of the school beauty, Doris Jenny, and I can know immediately whenever she posts on Facebook!"

No sooner had he finished speaking than Lawrence Tuttle quickly opened the Facebook account of campus belle Doris Janney. In her latest post, there was a set of sexy bikini photos that were extremely alluring. The comment section was about to explode, with all sorts of guys saying they couldn't take it anymore and wanted to have sex with her.

Lawrence Tuttle then revealed his lecherous side, nodding and commenting on the school beauty's bikini photos: "Look at those legs and those breasts, I could play with them for a year! I've never seen a cow with such big breasts as Doris Janice, her size must be at least an E cup, she's got a lot of milk!"

Lawrence Tuttle couldn't help but lick his lips, feeling a bit dry.

James White asked, "If I search for my high school classmates on Facebook, will I be able to find them on Facebook?"

"Of course, as long as you know his name, his previous school and grade, his current university and major, etc., the more details the better, then you can find him very quickly. Of course, the premise is that he also uses Facebook!"

James White nodded, indicating that he understood.

He then registered a Facebook account and searched for his classmates from before college.

Before long, James White was amazed.

He was able to find all the classmates he searched for on Facebook, something even ICQ, the social media giant, could never do.

Because registering for ICQ does not require real-name authentication, sometimes you don't even know if the person you're chatting with is male or female, or even a dog.

Facebook, on the other hand, can actually help people find each other.

"Facebook is such a brilliant idea!!!"

James White couldn't help but exclaim, "It's similar to Twitter, but also different. Users post messages on their Facebook accounts, and everyone who follows them can see them. Moreover, Facebook is a website that combines making friends and sharing daily life. Because Facebook requires real-name registration, everyone takes great care in managing their Facebook accounts, since all your friends know you..."

James White was a big fan of Facebook and became a loyal user of the site on the same day.

The popularity of Facebook in American universities quickly spread to European universities as well.

So when Facebook officially entered European universities, countless European university students began registering accounts.

"I've heard that Facebook is super popular in American universities, and I really envy those American college students. But now it's finally our turn!" an Oxford University student exclaimed excitedly, and then eagerly opened the Facebook website to register an account.

In just a few days, Facebook became a hit on European universities.

Facebook spread like wildfire, quickly becoming popular in universities around the world. However, because Facebook account registration was restricted to university students, many people expressed dissatisfaction because they could not register for Facebook.

In recent days, as Facebook has become increasingly popular, voices of discontent in society have grown louder.

Many adults even blocked the building where Facebook operates, strongly demanding that Facebook relax registration restrictions and allow members of the public to register accounts.

"If Facebook doesn't lift the restrictions on account registration, I'll mail a bomb to Facebook, and I mean it!"
