After posting the Weibo post, Jiang Heng was extremely nervous and kept refreshing the page to see the fans’ reactions. Soon, someone left him a message.
I don’t care, I’ll just call Yunshu: Thank you very much, blogger, I love you, I’m going to see my second brother!
The little shark of the male god’s family: The blogger is so good, I will show mercy and not kill you and give you a kiss. Go and watch the set of photos + videos + interviews of my Jingbao. The official has never given out such benefits, but the blogger actually gave you a big gift package directly. I just want to say well done!
Of course, not all comments are harmonious, there are also some that just curse.
A Meimeimei: It’s just a few pictures. Is the blogger crazy about money? !
Hide and Seek Moon: After watching a lot of them and hearing them say they were good, I thought I was the only one who thought they were not good. It’s just a few pictures and videos, there is no cost at all, but they still dare to charge for it. Are they crazy about money?
Jiang Heng's heart tightened, and he subconsciously wanted to explain, but after typing a long string of words, he felt that it was not right, so he deleted it. Just like revising a manuscript, he deleted it back and forth, and in the end he was unable to send it out. Forget it, refresh the page and pretend you didn’t see it. Thinking this, he refreshed the page and looked at the new messages. Someone spoke up for him.
Chen Wei Vivian: @阿梅梅梅@躲求猫的月亮don’t tell me you are a fan of Er Meng, we don’t accept you, thank you! The deformed posters printed at street stalls cost one dollar each, but a dozen high-definition pictures, videos and interviews only cost fifty cents. And you scold the bloggers for being crazy about money. I would also like to ask you if you are crazy because of poverty? ! There are also people who say that videos and pictures are free of charge. May I ask if you have ever posted the brain wave drawings made by eye imaging online? Camera is free? Effortless shooting? Isn’t labor money? Besides, it’s a regular daily newspaper, 50 cents a copy, fair to everyone, read it if you want, if not, get lost!
Miaomiao: I won’t accept the +1, but I’ll give a pat on the blogger’s back. He was bitten by a dog.
Language is a magical thing. It can hurt people, but it can also soothe them. Jiang Heng breathed a sigh of relief, the corners of his lips unconsciously rising. He stopped checking Weibo, finished his cold soy milk, and started working seriously.
And what happened yesterday was like a lucky start for him. After sitting in the office for about an hour, he received a phone call. It was not about any random person being trapped, but real news.
Jiang Heng hurried out with his camera and no longer paid attention to what was happening on Weibo. He didn't know what kind of surprise this incident would give him.
Someone once said that in a marriage, if the other person spends money on you, it doesn’t necessarily mean that they love you, but if they are reluctant to spend money on you, it definitely means they don’t love you. The spending money here does not refer to fine clothes or delicacies, but a bouquet of flowers, a small trinket or a meal. I will try my best to be nice to you within my means.
This sentence also applies to the fan circle. If you are not even willing to spend money on your idol within your means, what kind of love is that? TV series, movies, concerts, and magazine endorsements don't mean you have to support them all. Do what you can. There will always be one that can intersect with your life.
Jing Ling's works since his debut, the web dramas are the joint credit of everyone, the same goes for movies, variety shows do not need to be purchased, there are no magazines and no endorsements, and at present there is nothing that can measure the fan support rate. This incident can be regarded as an opportunity. Many people are squatting in front of the screen waiting to watch the fun. Not only those in the fan circle, but also those in the industry. They all want to know how much sales a 50-cent newspaper can achieve in the end. For this purpose, some people even posted the link on Jing Ling’s Weibo and Tieba, and it also became a popular post.
As Jing Ling's agent, Shen Ze naturally noticed this, and basically guessed what everyone was thinking. He acquiesced to this, because not only others wanted to know, he himself also wanted to know whether Jing Ling's popularity was a false prosperity or truly well-deserved.
The Zhucheng Daily staff, who were far away in the south of the Republic, had no idea about the behind-the-scenes gaming in the entertainment industry, so when fans flocked to the website crazily, the management was completely confused.
Although Zhucheng is a coastal city, its economy has not been developed due to various factors. It is only a fourth-tier city and ranks low. The total population of the city is just over a few million, and the circulation of Zhucheng Daily is about 50,000, with little fluctuation unless something particularly big happens. However, due to the rapid development of the Internet, which is beyond the imagination of most people and has reached the point where one can know what is happening in the world at home with a mobile phone in hand, the circulation of daily newspapers has been shrinking. The above has made reforms based on social development. Since last year, it has vigorously promoted the electronic version of the daily newspaper, which not only conforms to development but also achieves the effect of saving resources. It’s a pity that the effect is not very good.
The electronic version of Zhucheng Daily has been launched for almost a year, but the number of subscribers is very small. The enthusiasm that the newspaper had at the beginning has long since cooled. Originally there was a dedicated person responsible for editing and organizing the layout, but later they just randomly picked someone to do the part-time job.
Lin Huanhuan is the part-time worker. The news that would be scheduled for the next day would be provided in electronic form by the writers themselves, and she only had to plug the data into the template. By the way, count yesterday’s sales and report them early the next morning.
Today, as usual, after counting yesterday's sales in the morning, she started to busy herself with her job. Soon the day passed and it was almost time to get off work in the afternoon. She discussed with her colleagues about going shopping or having a meal together later, when suddenly the phone on the table rang.
She picked it up and said, "Hello, Pearl City Daily!"
A girl's voice came from the other end. "Hello, I would like to ask, when will your daily newspaper website be accessible? I just refreshed it for a long time, but the page didn't respond."
Lin Huanhuan was stunned when she heard this, and it took her two seconds to react. "Could you explain the situation in detail?" she asked while opening the website page on her computer.
The girl on the other end of the phone briefly explained that she originally wanted to buy an electronic version of Zhucheng Daily, but when accessing the website, the speed was too slow. After waiting for a few minutes, the page did not load. The same situation occurred after closing and reopening it. After trying several times in a row, the page crashed directly.
Lin Huanhuan also noticed this situation because she couldn't open the website herself. However, she was not a professional and had no idea what was going on. She could only tell the girl on the other end of the phone to wait and she would get back to her after finding out the cause.
"Okay, I hope it can be quick. I can't wait to buy the newspaper!" The girl hung up, leaving Lin Huanhuan with a confused look on her face. When did their daily newspaper become so popular that someone actually called to urge them to publish it. From the sound of her voice, it's a young girl. Wouldn't it be better to just buy a copy from a roadside newsstand?
But now was not the time to think about this issue, so she first reported the problem to the editor-in-chief and got a phone number for her to contact to explain the problem. When she called, a man's voice came through. After asking the questions, he asked her to wait and would give her a reply shortly. This wait lasted until the end of the get off work day, during which time Lin Huanhuan received several calls, all asking about the website page crash and when it could be repaired.
In fact, this kind of situation has happened before, but maybe no one noticed it for a long time, or they were too lazy to care about it even if they found it. Anyway, daily newspapers are not a necessity in life. However, Lin Huanhuan received several calls in the afternoon. She felt something was wrong. After asking around, she found out that the people who called to urge her were not really eager to read the daily newspaper. They just wanted to read a piece of news in it, about a whale being trapped. There was a celebrity involved, and there were photos, videos, and interviews.
The technician also called and said that the cause had been found, but it was a little hard to believe because the number of visitors was too large and exceeded the server's capacity, causing it to crash.
Lin Huanhuan: "...April Fool's Day has passed, comrade!" It's not a popular website, where do so many people come from to visit it and burst the server?
The technical guy on the other side was unhappy. "Who is kidding you? Your broken server will crash when there are too many people. It can't support it at all! There is no backup server, and I can't expand the capacity and divert traffic. I can only limit the number of visitors and add a verification code. Just use it."
Lin Huanhuan didn’t understand what he meant, but she didn’t need to understand. She just needed to know that the website could be opened. She tried it herself first, and the webpage could be opened, but the loading speed was a bit slow, but within the tolerable range. She clicked to log in, but hey, it actually required verification, and what the hell were those pictures? Please find all the oranges in the following picture? The picture is so blurry, they all look alike!
Lin Huanhuan was blocked by the verification code and it took her several minutes to log in. Although it's slow, it works.
So she replied to everyone who had called her before, saying that the website page had been repaired and could be accessed normally. After finishing, I packed up and left work. Because I was delayed for too long, I had to cancel my shopping and dining plans with my colleagues and took the bus directly home.
She did leave, but fans who visited the website to buy the electronic version of the daily newspaper were ripped off. The webpage can be opened, but a verification code is required to log in. Those terrible pictures block 90% of people. It takes several minutes on average to log in normally, which can barely achieve the effect of diversion.
Poor Jing Ling's fans, they wanted to buy a gift package for their idol, so they first had to squeeze into that broken little website with everyone else. When the webpage crashed, they had to call to urge them to fix it. After it was finally fixed, a perverted verification code appeared. It was like a war, with many twists and turns and extremely difficult.
But most people still persisted. While complaining that the technical guy must have been hurt when trying to grab train tickets during the Spring Festival travel rush, they also fought wits and courage with the verification code and finally successfully spent fifty cents.
Then the next morning, when Lin Huanhuan opened the website page at work and logged into the backend to count the sales, she was completely shocked.
"Editor-in-Chief, something bad has happened!"
The number of subscriptions, which usually fluctuated around a few thousand, skyrocketed overnight, with the backend showing nearly 900,000, a hundred times increase! This wasn't just an accident, it was a big accident!
