Reborn since 1993

Chapter 457 A Spark
The administrator of Tianya.com published a post announcing some website regulations, the most important of which is to prohibit the posting of posts that violate the law. This is for the good of Tianya.com and the users who post.

The global Internet industry now basically follows the principle that anything is allowed unless prohibited by law, and the limits on the Internet are very large.

As the first real Internet site in China, Li Dongling does not want Tianya.com to become popular by relying on some weird news. Maybe in the short term, the website can indeed gain some traffic, but in the long run, it will definitely backfire. If you rise by this, you will fall by this.

This is Tianya.com. We have set some rules for the website. These rules are very important and can ensure the long-term operation of the website!
This also includes some posts that violate the website regulations, which Tianya.com has the right to deal with. In fact, this is to establish the copyright issue of website posts, which is also very important!

Or take Tianya.com. Is it difficult to build its own moat and establish a forum website? Now it can be said that it is not difficult at all and it is not a problem technically at all.

In order to prevent competitors from replacing Tianya.com, Tianya.com definitely needs some moats. The users and huge content on the website are the best moats. With these users and posts, users can stay on Tianya.com and will not be diverted away.

This includes any website that reprints content from Tianya.com without authorization and can sue the other party.

This is just like Baidu and Penguin's social software in the past. Baidu's searches are full of advertisements, but why is it so difficult for so many search companies to replace it? It is because it has collected sufficiently large web data over the past ten years, and most of the time, you can find the answer when you search for something on it.

Other search platforms are not as good as Baidu. The results of the searches are either irrelevant or completely useless. After several attempts, which search platform will users choose?

Penguin's social platform relies on a network of relationships. Relatives, classmates, friends, and colleagues are all on one social platform. Changing to another platform is like chatting with the air?
But for Tianya users who are new to the Internet, some of them have seen some clues from the posts of Tianya administrators, while others don't care.

However, regardless of whether you care about it or not, as the only website in China that can be logged in and used to post messages for communication, there is really no choice. If you don't come to Tianya.com, you can only go to those BBS forums that can only accommodate a few users to post messages.

"For the first activity, Tianya.com, Computer News, Computer World, Hanxi Provincial News, Pingyang Daily, Hanxi Pingyang Animal Park, and Pingyang Giant Panda Research Center jointly launched a naming campaign.

You can post on Tianya.com and name the two giant pandas at the Pingyang Giant Panda Research Center. If your name is adopted, you will receive a corresponding exquisite gift. This activity starts tonight and ends at 8 am on the third day of the Lunar New Year!
The second activity is that Tianya.com will cooperate with Football Club Magazine, which is part of the Tianya Sports section, to launch a special New Year event. The editor-in-chief of Football Club Magazine, Zhong Lifei, will conduct a telephone interview across thousands of miles with European football star, World Cup champion and new generation European football superstar Ronaldo.

The interview content will be reported in real time in the form of text posts on Tianya.com, and Ronaldo will also be asked questions randomly from some Tianya.com users.

For the third activity, Tianya.com has invited celebrities including Leon Lai, one of the four kings of Hong Kong, to log in to Tianya.com from the first to the sixth day of the Chinese New Year to conduct "face-to-face" activities with Tianya.com users.

The fourth activity is..."

After seeing the posts published by the administrator of Tianya.com and the launch of the website activities, the comments below the posts suddenly became lively, and this wave brought up many lurking users.

The first activity, which was to name the giant panda, attracted a lot of attention from Tianya.com users. This was also the first time in China that a national treasure was named, so it naturally attracted a lot of attention.

For users who like football, the second activity is very attractive, especially for fans who follow European football. Ronaldo, who has performed like a superstar since his debut, is the focus of discussion among fans around the world.

Many football fans believe that it is only a matter of time before Ronaldo wins the FIFA World Player of the Year title. Which football fan can resist the opportunity to ask the future FIFA World Player of the Year, not to mention that this is the hottest time for domestic football.

Ronaldo has always been the product spokesperson for Dongling Hi-Tech in Europe. When he was still a novice, Dongling Hi-Tech gave him a "huge" advertising endorsement fee.

Now, he was asked to spend a few hours to promote the products of the big sponsor. How could Ronaldo refuse? !

The third activity is that Tianya.com spends money to invite celebrities to go to Tianya.com, post a few messages, interact with Tianya.com users and answer questions. This is used for advertising, attracting passers-by, and also to build momentum for Tianya's entertainment section.

In the future, as long as it is operated properly, who says that these sections of Tianya.com, such as Tianya Sports, Tianya Entertainment, Tianya Literature, etc., cannot be split out and listed?
Yahoo has collapsed in its previous life, but its Yahoo Sports, Yahoo Finance, Yahoo Mail, etc. have remained active for many years.

As the first company to try out the domestic Internet, as long as Tianya.com does not commit suicide, it will have an easier chance than other companies to develop sports, entertainment, literature and other sections by relying on its first-mover advantage. By splitting them out and reaping the benefits, no, after they go public, the chances of investors getting returns from these sections will naturally be much greater.

"Mr. Li, Tianya's backend shows that the number of people online at the same time has exceeded 700!" Guo Jingyun called Li Dongling in the middle of the night and excitedly reported the "good news" to Li Dongling.

It is indeed good news that the number of people online at the same time on a website can exceed 700, which has pushed the previous record of the highest number of people online on BBS forums by more than 40 to 50 times. For domestic Internet practitioners, this is definitely a groundbreaking event.

Li Dongling listened to Guo Jingyun's excited tone and the faint shouting coming from the phone, and he could tell what the atmosphere inside Tianya Company was like at the moment.

After hanging up the phone, Li Dongling shook his head, thinking back to a short video platform in his previous life, where there were hundreds of millions of users watching videos every day, or even hundreds of millions of people all over the world, using the same mobile phone software, and millions of people playing a PK game online at the same time. Looking at Tianya.com now, with more than 700 online users, he couldn't help cheering. He could only say, the past is too hard to recall!

However, the road must be paved step by step. Now, the total number of computer users in China is only a few tens of thousands. However, within five or six years, the number of domestic computer users will exceed 50 million. In the next few years, the number of Internet users will grow exponentially, and the number of users can increase by one or two thousand times in five or six years.

Li Dongling’s expectation for Tianya.com is to establish a big banner in the Chinese-speaking Internet circles in China, including Southeast Asia. That’s enough!
Looking at the time, it was almost late at night. Li Dongling didn't stay up any longer. He turned off the computer screen and went to bed.

But when Li Dongling went to sleep, Tianya.com did not become quieter, but became even more noisy. As users of various BBS forums spread the news of the launch of Tianya.com and the activities being held, more and more users flocked to Tianya.com.

The post soliciting names for the giant panda has already been viewed dozens of times in the blink of an eye. Countless names have appeared on the webpage, and it is heading towards the hundredth post.

"Bah!"

After clicking the mouse several times, the Tianya.com webpage remained motionless. Ding Sanshi, who had not yet set up NetEase, suspected that his Internet connection was disconnected.

He went to the BBS forum he had created and took a look. Hmm, it was very quiet. No one was talking at all. Ding Sanshi also knew what was going on.

At this moment, everyone has gone to Tianya.com. After all, the language there is pleasant and there are many talented people. Even if there is a war of words, the replies are very fast and the insults are never the same. He just watched two people on Tianya.com have been quarreling with each other for more than a hundred times, and there is no sign of it dying down. If the administrator does not lock and delete the posts, it is estimated that the two people will quarrel until the end of the year...

I visited several BBS sites, which were basically the same as Ding Sanshi's own site. They were all deserted, until I came to Mazhan, which finally became a little lively.

"Is your Tianya network also stuck?"

Ding Sanshi recognized the person who was speaking. It was Wang Juntao, who was also the founder of 8848 in the previous life.

"It seems that it's not our internet connection that's bad, it's the Tianya server that's stuck!"

"I feel that Tianya.com is a real Internet website. It is completely different from the experience of BBS sites!"

"But Tianya.com is not as professional as BBS sites. There are too many people of all kinds, and it is easy to get into arguments and start verbal battles, but they are not trying to solve the problem!"

"But I feel that Tianya.com is the real Internet. With a computer and an Internet cable, people can really ignore space, time and distance. It's as if the person who replied to the post is right in front of them..."

On Ma's site, a group of people active on the BBS site, including Boss Ma, Ding Sanshi, Wang Juntao, Wang Xiaobo, Li Zonghua, Wang Zhidong, etc., all started to talk about their experience of using Tianya.com.

Tianya.com currently does not have a function to add friends or send private messages. This kind of small circle discussion is more private on BBS sites, where acquaintances can talk more easily. If it were put on Tianya.com, there would probably be another quarrel.

There is nothing we can do about it. There is no such thing as having the best of both worlds in the world, and it is even more impossible to satisfy everyone's requirements. We can only try to make most people accept it, and that's enough!
"The first Internet company in China was officially launched last night. The number of registered users exceeded 1125, and the maximum number of people online at the same time exceeded . The giant panda naming campaign initiated has already attracted more than people, and the number of posts mainly on this topic has exceeded ..."

In Zhongguancun, in a company with the brand of Yinghaiwei, Zhang Shuxin was looking at the report on Tianya.com in the Yanjing Science and Technology News, the most widely circulated newspaper in Zhongguancun.
