By the time Bai Yu and his group returned to their hotel from the town of Snake, it was already evening there, while it was daytime back home.
Hawaii is more than ten hours ahead of China in time. While Bai Yu and Wang Hai were sleeping in the hotel, it was already dawn in China.
At 8:00 AM in China, Bai Yu posted a video on Kuaishou, highlighting their company's official account on the platform and preparing to drive traffic to it.
Moreover, it wasn't just one account that did this. On the Kuaishou platform, as long as someone has more than 10 million followers, regardless of what type of blogger or streamer they are, they all post a video at 8 o'clock that warmly welcomes Yuxue Shipping Company to join the Kuaishou platform.
Before Bai Yu revealed that he had donated over 3 billion yuan to Southeast Asia and the two seas, Kuaishou (a short video platform) was very welcoming to their company's entry. However, the platform's notifications were limited to having some top livestreamers post welcome videos.
All they need to do is create an atmosphere where their live-streaming hosts on the Kuaishou platform, despite being in the same industry, get along very well.
But things are different now. The significance of Bai Yu's company selling products on their platform has changed. The money their company earns is donated, which immediately went viral online.
After a night of backlash, Douyin's official website was bombarded by netizens and crashed, enduring a full night of criticism. The top trending topics were all about Yuxue Shipping Company.
These trending topics are all speculations, trying to find out the truth of the news that Bai Yu revealed the day before.
Of course, netizens' speculation about Bai Yu's donation is likely true, since the matter involves the navy. If Bai Yu dares to make false statements about this, he'll basically be finished.
No matter what his identity is, whether he has won glory for the country, or whether he is an Olympic champion, as long as certain taboos are involved, no matter how powerful his identity is, it's useless.
However, since Bai Yu issued a statement yesterday, neither he nor his company have responded to the matter again. Moreover, the statement was issued quite late yesterday, and the relevant media outlets were unable to find any insiders.
However, at 8 a.m. the next day, the official accounts of Southeast China Sea gave Bai Yu and his company's statement a thumbs up, thus confirming the authenticity of the matter.
Then Douyin's official website was criticized even more harshly, while Kuaishou directly assigned a task to all bloggers on their platform with over ten million followers: to release a welcome video at the same time to welcome Yuxue Shipping Company to join their platform.
As for Bai Yu's private account, there's no need to discuss it. He already has over 100 million followers on Kuaishou, making him the Kuaishou account with the most followers among all personal accounts.
Then, the two leading short video platforms in China, Kuaishou and Douyin, received two extreme treatments at the same time.
One account was trending on social media for being banned, while another was trending because the entire platform welcomed Yuxue Shipping Company to its platform.
At the same time, Yuxue Shipping Company also released a video announcing that at 8 p.m. that evening, Yuxue Shipping Company would join hands with all of its anchors to launch its first live broadcast on the Kuaishou platform.
Their company will be giving away many gifts in the live stream, including but not limited to cash, electronic products, food gift boxes, seafood gift boxes, clothing and apparel, etc., and hopes that netizens will come to watch.
With the support of top livestreamers across all platforms, the number of followers on Yuxuechuan Company's account skyrocketed at an incredible speed.
Logically speaking, if a new account gains too many followers too quickly, it will inevitably show a warning sign and become unfollowable, even if it is a company account.
Unless it's an official account, or the platform makes a setting to eliminate the risks associated with such a rapid increase in followers.
Of course, this risk only exists on ordinary accounts or official company accounts. For accounts like Yuxue Shipping Company that are recommended across all platforms, this risk will certainly not exist.
The platform was even worried that Yuxue Shipping Company's traffic was not large enough, so it specially increased the exposure of the account and gave it as much traffic as possible.
In just one hour, Yuxue Shipping Company's account followers jumped from three digits to eight digits, breaking the record for the fastest follower growth on short video platforms.
Around 7 p.m., just before their company's live stream was about to start, their company's account had already surpassed 50 million followers.
Of course, the arrival of Bai Yu's company is also very beneficial to the Kuaishou platform. In just one day, the number of downloads of the Kuaishou App has surged by tens of millions.
Tens of millions of downloads may seem insignificant compared to the hundreds of billions of downloads achieved by platforms like Douyin and Kuaishou.
However, the apps Kuaishou and Douyin have been running for several years, and their download numbers are the result of years of accumulation, including many duplicate downloads.
If you calculate it this way, then ten million downloads is quite a lot, isn't it?
Here's another piece of very good news for Kuaishou: Douyin saw tens of millions of uninstalls in just one day.
Download counts may be accumulated from repeated downloads, but uninstall counts, especially those within a single day, are extremely detrimental to TikTok.
This is why Douyin wasn't listed in 2022; otherwise, given the current situation and the widespread criticism of Douyin online, its stock would definitely have hit the daily limit down.
On the other hand, the market value of a certain company has skyrocketed, and the stock market chart is a blood-red mess.
When it comes to national defense, our people are very rational. Whoever is good for national defense is good, and whoever is detrimental to national defense can be stabbed in the back by our people.
As for the reason, don't ask too much. The answer is that our family's peace is hard-won. It was all bought with the lives of our ancestors. Because of this, our ancestors even suffered from a fear of insufficient firepower, and it's a hereditary condition.
In our family, if you were to suggest that we let our smokers smoke a few more cigarettes a day so that we could contribute more to national defense, we wouldn't have any problem with it.
But if you tell smokers that for the sake of their health, everyone should stop smoking, they will only reply with, "If you don't smoke, then smoke you!"
Similarly, if Bai Yu's company is able to donate the vast majority of its profits to national defense and increase our naval strength, then netizens will support it.
The Douyin platform, because of a video of fighting against Filipino monkeys illegally crossing the border, claimed that Bai Yu and his group were disrupting peace between the two countries and banned Bai Yu's account without reason. This is an act of betrayal and deserves to be condemned.
What? The money Bai Yu and the others donated was to protect their own company, not to protect Douyin? You think you can just say it disrupts peace? What did the official account say?
Furthermore, their official statement at the diplomatic meeting indicated that it was the Filipinos who provoked first and were the ones disrupting peace, and that our defensive action was a legitimate act.
Even so, Douyin, relying on its status as a platform, claiming that without them there would be no Baiyu Company or Baiyu account, arrogantly refused to apologize or give an explanation.
With that, who else should we criticize but them?
In any case, within a single day, some were happy while others were sad. Kuaishou was so happy they were practically celebrating with drums and gongs, while Douyin made multiple calls to Yuxue Company, but Li Shuang and his team didn't answer any of them.
They were incredibly busy today, not only with their first live stream on Kuaishou, but also with dealing with the large number of media gathered outside their company.
This matter is indeed too big. For news media that want to get first-hand information, they are eager to interview the senior management of Yuxue Shipping Company, and preferably Bai Yu.
Then their company was besieged by various media outlets, which kept Li Shuang and his team very busy. They had to prepare things and deal with the media at the same time, and each person was being used as two people.
Around 7 p.m., seeing that they couldn't get any specific information from the company, the media left immediately after finding out Bai Yu's location.
They're going to interview the person in question.
