Chapter 12: Website Launched
When Zhang Yiming looked at Chen Bo again, he was already full of worship and admiration, and he couldn't be excited.
"That's awesome, buddy. 300,000, I never thought we would find a few bugs and get 300,000!! ”
Chen Bo really couldn't understand how Zhang Yiming was admitted to Yale and how he got his bachelor's degree at this time. The IQ is quite high, why is the EQ so touching? If he is allowed to go into business, he doesn't know what he will lose, and this man has no concept of money at all.
300,000 is in hand, and the two of them are divided into five, 150,000 each. Chen Bo and Zhang Yiming were barely enough for the plan at the beginning, and at the beginning, they mainly spent less money and put up the shelves of the website first.
Zhang Yiming simply moved all the computers directly to Chen Bo's small living room, and the beginning of June in Pengcheng entered the rainy season. Often, there are thick dark clouds blowing on sunny days, followed by heavy rains, followed by sunny days.
The air humidity is quite large, and now air conditioning is still a luxury, of course, Chen Bo's small house does not have the conditions to install it, coupled with mosquito bites, the conditions are extremely difficult. Although there is a fund of 300,000 yuan, it is used by the company to expand in the future, and the money still has to be spent on the blade.
So the two of them were in the stuffy little room, blowing an old floor fan, still from the second-hand market, shaking their heads and rattling.
Anyway, there was no one else in the room, so the two of them simply worked in the house shirtless, and they had to find time to pat the bloodthirsty mosquitoes.
The two of them rented a small server, with a space capacity of 1GB, and the bandwidth was only enough for 1,000 people to be online at the same time. The cost of this month will be 900 yuan.
Zhang Yiming is responsible for the backend database and framework, and Chen Bo is responsible for the design of the front-end of the website.
Chen Bo's previously registered domain name came in handy, enabling this Larry domain name. Sky.com, it sounds also catchy, and it is quite comfortable to be an entertainment website. The slogan is "Infinite Entertainment, All in the Sky"!
The web section is designed with a homepage and three secondary subpages. Each page is a different category of sections.
The first category is music audition, which includes recent popular Chinese and English songs. And only do auditions, not music downloads. After all, there is no formal authorization from the record company to avoid subsequent disputes.
At the same time, at the beginning of Chen Bo's era, the violent development of the Internet had a huge impact on the music industry, the record industry was in danger, and musicians couldn't eat, so how could they still be in the mood to make music in a down-to-earth manner. It was not until the later period when the law was perfected that various Internet companies began to formally protect copyright.
Chen Bo also wants to make a good start for other companies that are interested in making music websites, and copyright protection must be done.
The second type is web games, which use the Flash plug-in of Macromedia, which can play Flash animations and music. It is also possible to make a browser game. Later, the flash plug-in was acquired by Adobe, the parent company of Photoshop. But this classic free plugin played a key role in the development of the Internet and has been used ever since.
The third type is the online light BBS forum, which focuses on original online jokes. A collection of popular internet phrases and funny jokes. For example, some of the words that are now popular are "spotted bamboo", "prawns", "rookie", "networm" and so on. This unique Internet vocabulary and jokes will greatly shorten the distance between young netizens.
The whole site has an orange warm color theme, which will give people a more welcoming and intimate feeling.
Affected by space and bandwidth, the resources for auditioning songs in the music section are naturally limited, and only about 100 songs can be placed. And that's already taking up nearly a third of the space, along with flash files, website code, and databases. 1G server space is a bit stretched.
But at least it can barely make the website work. It took about ten days for the website to be debugged. It was quietly launched on the night of June 10th.
Two shirtless rough men looked at the website they had made in a small space, and there was a burst of silly amusement. A great sense of joy and accomplishment came over me, and it was not in vain the energy that I had worked so hard during this time.
Although the website is online, it still needs to be publicized and promoted, otherwise where will the traffic come from, and the current search engine can not only easily find the website you want to find.
The two of them turned into human flesh posting machines, changing various vests and wandering in the forums of major websites and*. The goal is to push the sky network out first.
Hard work pays off. On the first day of launch, there were more than 3,000 hits, and the highest number of people online at the same time was more than 200. Although the traffic is small, it is a solid step.
Zhang Yiming stretched his waist heavily, "Three knives, we have been busy non-stop for half a month." It's time to catch your breath! ”
Chen Bo's eyes also turned from the computer monitor, and during this time, the two of them were basically designing and writing code in no white or black. The most loyal partner is instant noodles, and the room is full of the smell of instant noodles seasoning, plus the sweat stains of the two of them.
This sour and refreshing can be used as an endorsement for a certain brand of instant noodles.
Since the preliminary work of the website has come to an end, it is better to take this opportunity to relax, at least to make a tooth sacrifice, and not to treat the Five Organs Temple badly.
The two of them went to a nearby Sichuan restaurant, ordered a pot of oily boiled pork slices, and then a fresh and tender spicy bullfrog. With white rice, like a hungry wolf just out of the cage, he almost gnawed the bowl clean.
Zhang Yiming hiccuped, grinned, and picked the minced meat between his teeth, a sense of satisfaction that life was nothing more than this.
"One of my classmates told me to go to the night club at night for a while, let's go together?"
"Night show? You don't want to ......" Chen Bo asked curiously, he didn't expect this kid to usually look very serious, and he had such a fancy intestine.
"Where do you want to go, it's just a Di. Drink, bounce, and vent. Zhang Yiming frowned and danced.
"Then you go and jump, I think you're just like a grasshopper!"
Chen Bo doesn't like places that are too noisy, places like Di Bars and bars always give people a feeling of black miasma, and KTVs rarely go there. He prefers to be quiet, a space closer to nature where he can think quietly.
However, Zhang Yiming didn't plan to let him go, he was soft and hard, and he almost knelt down and hugged his thighs after repeated requests. Chen Bo had no choice but to agree, and the two of them got into a taxi and left.
When you come to Bar Street, you will be surrounded by the lights and wine, and the roar of heavy metal rock will come from the buildings that shimmer in colorful and dazzling lights.
This seems to be another face of Pengcheng, no longer in a hurry. Fast-paced mechanics and numbness, young men and women shed their daytime disguises and put on a different face to have fun.
