Chapter 130 The website crashed
Xu Yanyu slept quite soundly, but she didn't know that the two songs she uploaded almost kept Gao Lichang and others busy for the whole night.
It turned out that after receiving the two links she uploaded, the fans who had been following her were somewhat puzzled as to why Xu Yanyu's songs were not produced by professional music software.
But after clicking in, everyone was very happy.
They left messages on the website where Xu Yanyu released the song.
[Free, free. I was expecting to pay more than ten yuan to listen to Xu Yanyu's two songs, but I didn't expect that I didn't have to pay for both songs.]
【Not only is it free, but it is also a super high-quality version.
Oh my god, this sound quality, coupled with Yan Yu's voice, is so much better than the live version! 】
[This version is actually different. Who is the male singer? He and Xu Yanyu work well together. The chorus of the two people is more than 1+1. ]
[Xu Yanyu is so sincere! She even recorded "Red Dust Smile". The songs on this website can be downloaded for free.]
[Wait... there is a function to reward creators, I want to reward Yan Yu. ]
[The songs on this website seem to be pretty good. It's really a treasure trove of websites. But why can't I find the APP? ]
……
Then these people share the link to their home groups just like fission.
"Mom, this is the original version of 'The Most Dazzling National Style' that you have been looking for. You can download the song by clicking on this link."
"Auntie, the singer of 'The Most Dazzling Ethnic Style' has released a song. I forwarded it to you. You promised to treat me to a big meal, don't forget it."
"Dad, download the song 'The Most Dazzling National Style' that you requested, and you can change it into a ringtone."
……
More and more people shared this post, and some of those who clicked in had Douniu accounts, so they followed Xu Yanyu's Douniu account.
What if Xu Yanyu releases a new song later?
On the other side, Gao Lichang and his companions were still talking loudly.
They were in a barbecue restaurant, with a table full of food.
"Come on, enjoy your meal. I'll pay for tonight. It's a pity that Yan Yu doesn't want to come out with us." Gao Lichang raised a glass of beer and greeted A Tao and the others.
"It must be you who paid for it. You look so radiant now. Let us enjoy your blessing."
Ah Zhong also raised his glass and drank; he was very happy for his friend.
Gao Lichang wanted to say something when his cell phone rang.
He wondered, "It's already twelve o'clock in the evening, who would come to see me?"
He answered the phone and an anxious male voice came from the other end.
"Hello, Mr. Gao! The Qianjia Music website that you entrusted our company to operate has crashed!"
Gao Lichang realized that it was the website operation and maintenance company they were cooperating with.
Their music website was entrusted to a professional company for operation and maintenance, and the person who called now was the manager who was in contact with him.
Gao Lichang was stunned for a moment, then said, "What about adding some more servers?"
A Tao and the others also quieted down and looked at Gao Lichang with some curiosity.
"Servers have definitely been added! A lot of servers have been added... Alas, the situation is quite troublesome now. So many people have suddenly come in! All of our colleagues in charge of technology have been called over to work overtime."
The operations manager also had a headache.
"A lot of people are flocking to the website? How many people?" Gao Lichang's eyes lit up and he asked excitedly.
When Tao and the others heard what he said, they came over and wanted to hear some news.
"There are more than 100,000 people now! And the number is still rising! Your website usually only has a few thousand visitors, how come there are suddenly more than 100,000 today..."
"What? Xiao Du, what did you say? The number of visitors is about to exceed 300,000? Why are there so many people listening to music in the middle of the night? Don't these people sleep at night?"
Before the operation and maintenance manager could finish answering Gao Lichang's question, someone under him came running over to ask for help.
The operation and maintenance manager took a breath and said, "Mr. Gao, did you hear that? Your website can no longer use shared servers. If you want to change the server, the operation and maintenance costs will definitely be different from before."
The operations manager had a headache because the music website, which usually had little traffic, suddenly saw a surge in visitors and affected the performance of other websites.
"Sure! As long as you can ensure the normal operation of our Qianjia Music website, you can add servers or use other technologies. We will settle the fees together when the time comes." Gao Lichang replied to the operation and maintenance manager affirmatively.
When Ah Tao heard Gao Lichang's words, she quickly stopped him and said, "Old Gao, are you crazy? This website has been operating at a loss, and you still want to continue to put money into it? Do you want to sleep on the street?"
This website was originally established to protect the rights and interests of composers and some niche singers, but the website has actually always been operating at a loss.
So not only Ah Tao thought Gao Lichang was crazy, but even Ah Zhong said, "You need to think carefully, are you sure you want to continue to run this website?
It's a bottomless pit! Its operation and maintenance costs are too high.
How much money do you need to pay for it? You need to save some money for your retirement. How many more years can you sing?"
Gao Lichang shook his head stubbornly.
Of course he has thought it through.
Anti-monopoly is the key. Those platforms and companies exploit the achievements of creators through traffic.
Many creators have no choice but to compromise.
He had always been very powerless and just wanted to try hard on his own.
He knew that the roars of the lower class were just foolish struggles to them.
But he doesn't care about money, nor does he care about fame...
He has been relying on his fame and his songs to attract more people to pay attention to this small website of creators.
He hopes that everyone will have a fair platform to speak out.
He is stupid, he is a stupid idealist.
Needless to say, he knows he is stupid!
But he chose to do it anyway.
Look, there seems to be some traffic.
Now that he has seen the faint dawn light, is he going to hide back into the darkness?
he does not!
Gao Lichang said firmly: "I want to continue to operate this website, please send me the quotation."
The operation and maintenance manager, who had always known the situation of the website, was silent for a while.
After finally confirming a certain data, the operation and maintenance manager said: "I have one more thing to tell you. The charging channel has also received a lot of money. It seems that your website is about to break even.
It’s really not easy. This little website has been built for almost eight years and is finally coming to fruition.”
Gao Lichang was stunned. This website's revenue comes not only from user clicks, but also from user tips.
After deducting basic operating costs, he shares the money with the creators.
It’s just that there were too many users before, and the money distributed was not enough to cover the operating costs of the website.
When he heard the news that the company had turned losses into profits, he thought he was hallucinating.
The operation and maintenance manager continued: "Of course, I think you can also consider developing a software APP. Only with software can users use it more conveniently. You need to stabilize your users..."
The rest of the conversation was all good news for Gao Lichang.
After he hung up the phone, he said to Tao: "The popularity of Yan Yu's two songs is comparable to the dozens of songs released by my bank."
"Yan Yu's song was specifically praised by the official authorities. Moreover, many netizens had requested for the song online before. I wonder how much traffic it has accumulated." A Zhong took a sip of wine and analyzed.
"You'll have to thank Yan Yu later." A Tao said with a smile.
……
In addition to Gao Lichang and a few others who were drinking, there were two other men drinking in another city at the same time.
But the drinking atmosphere between these two men was not so cheerful.
Director Zhou of "Masked Singer" raised a glass of white wine and drank it in one gulp.
After drinking, he said sullenly, "Old Wu from H station got a big bargain."
After he finished speaking, he poured another glass of wine and drank it in one gulp.
He continued to complain: "I was the one who discovered Xu Yanyu's singing talent. It's all because of Hongsen Entertainment. If it weren't for them messing things up, Xu Yanyu would have stayed on the stage of "Masked Singer"."
His words made the assistant director, who was drinking with him, feel uncomfortable.
The assistant director snatched the bottle from his hand, filled it up, and drank it all in one gulp.
Then he hummed, "Originally, 'The Most Dazzling National Style' should have been shown on our show."
"Yes! Originally, our program should have been singled out for official praise.
Although the show "Masked Singer" is much better now than before, it could have been even better." The more Director Zhou thought about it, the more his heart bled.
The assistant director echoed, “Lao Zeng told me that Lao Wu would dance the cha-cha with his wife twice before going to bed these past two days.
Because Old Wu was so excited, dancing was the only way to express his inner enthusiasm.”
Director Zhou's hands turned pale from holding the cup.
He's going to be jealous!
The assistant director glanced at him and decided to share the good news together.
He continued: "It seems that "Singer 2024" has also become popular on foreign websites. The Douyin International version has been promoting this program."
