At the headquarters of Tomato Video Network, Fang Yuan, the leader of the animation and other business departments, has not been very happy recently.

Everything is because of the magic animation, all because of Xu Rui.

Although the new work "Wolf and Cat", which was originally full of momentum and had the potential to reach the five-year annual animation award, played well and exceeded 100 million clicks early, whether it was discussion or disc sales, it was hung up and exploded by the magic girl Madoka of Phantom Animation.

In addition, Fang Yuan's plan to try to suppress the phantom animation made "Madoka Magical Girl" not broadcast on other video sites, but who would have thought that Xu Rui directly established a video website by himself, and attracted a large number of users with the comment method called barrage, in just a few months, the daily activity of the first sound video network has almost caught up with the daily activity of the animation area of the tomato video network, and from the perspective of the quality of paid users, it is even more beaten.

This is not the most angry Fang Yuan, Liu Xueyan left soon after being transferred to the activity group, and Zhang Ke, the editor who took over in the animation area, also quickly went with him, and at the same time, Liu Xueyan also took away a programmer in the technical department whose name Fang Yuan had never even heard of, this feeling of hanging you up and beating with someone you don't want is very uncomfortable.

Originally, the data analysis team under Fang Yuan's hand also felt that "Madoka Magical Girl" was also a general bestseller, and the reviews of the Hatsune Video Network on websites such as Wenhu were not very good, and it was very likely to hit the streets, but who knows, a snowstorm did not destroy the Phantom Animation, but made "Madoka Magical Girl" a sales miracle, and even with Hatsune Video Network became a monster that Fang Yuan couldn't deal with.

To put it simply, Fang Yuan's previous strategies had failed.

He has received some accountability, but this does not affect his status.

However, Fang Yuan is still a little lucky, Chuyin Video Network has a single income structure, low cash flow, at best, it is a jump in the animation field, compared to Tomato Video Network, which has a set of industrial chains such as movies, variety shows, and TV series, it is just a fat fish.

"Mr. Fang, I'm Zhu Zhiguo from the Technology Department, what are you looking for me?"

A middle-aged man with glasses and few hairs on his head knocked on the door and walked into the office.

"You're the guy in charge of the development of our website player, right?"

Fang Yuan glanced at him and continued.

"Hatsune Video Network knows, what kind of talk website."

"Sandalwood? Oh, the barrage site. ”

Zhu Zhiguo corrected in a low voice, but Fang Yuan didn't care, but said in a commanding tone.

"Can our player also add that scrolling comment feature?"

"Well, this feature is actually an interactive comment system, by grabbing the content in the comment area, projecting it onto a separate ...... on the video playback surface"

"Speak human words."

Fang Yuan didn't have the patience to listen to this technical detail, and knocked on the table and said.

"Yes, yes, but there are two problems."

Zhu Zhiguo said as he pondered his words.

"First of all, our user volume is very large, more than dozens of times more than the first sound video network, if you add the barrage function without restricting users from speaking, it may lead to a large number of meaningless barrage swipes, which increases the workload of colleagues in the audit department exponentially, even if this is limited to paid members, the number is far larger than that of the first sound video network."

"So how does their website audit? Can't we just hire more people to moderate these comments? ”

When Fang Yuan heard this, he felt as if there was a little bit of truth, so he asked.

"According to what I know, the qualifications for sending barrages on the first sound video network need to be answered, and that question is very difficult, and the general public really can't answer it, I myself chose technology-related questions, and it took three or four answers to get the certification qualification."

Zhu Zhiguo touched his head, which had few hairs, and said a little embarrassedly.

"Therefore, the quality of users of Chuyin Video Network is very high, and the barrage sent is generally in line with the norms, and the difficulty of review is much smaller, and they also have a corresponding processing mechanism such as a small black house, and most of the review work can be completed through user reports."

"Does that mean the quality of our site's users is low?"

Fang Yuan asked rhetorically, Zhu Zhiguo had been saying good things about the first sound video network, which made him a little unhappy.

"Mr. Fang, I don't mean that, I mean, if we also open the barrage mechanism, we may need to improve the user's comment authority and the like, I can't call the shots, you have to find a product responsible for this part."

In fact, the development of new functions is generally to find corresponding products, and the reason why Zhu Zhiguo answered so patiently was mainly to leave a good impression on Fang Yuan.

"I'll find someone to implement this later, what's the second question?"

Fang Yuan waved his hand, and he didn't know if he had written it down.

"The second question is a bit ashamed to say."

Zhu Zhiguo pondered for a moment, and then spoke.

"At the moment, we have some minor issues with the player, which is still under maintenance, and the schedule for adding new features may be delayed."

"Minor questions?"

Fang Yuan frowned, not quite understanding what Zhu Zhiguo meant.

"How long will it last?"

"I can't say for sure, but according to the current progress, the development of this piece will not start until after the year at the earliest."

Zhu Zhiguo replied that near the end of the year, the statistical performance of all Internet companies has been frozen, just in order not to affect the year-end bonus of the year, Fang Yuan even if he is the company's CEO level, it is impossible to make a group of programmers who have already started the New Year in advance move, so the year after the year is actually the most optimistic prediction.

"Okay, you guys as soon as possible, I'll call the product and set up a special team to be responsible for the development of this part."

Fang Yuan motioned for Zhu Zhiguo to leave, and he walked out of the office tremblingly, his face full of sadness.

Of course,Zhu Zhiguo didn't tell all the facts,In fact, the player of Tomato Video Network exposed a major problem in a version change a year ago,This problem appeared with the upgrade of the operating system,Unexpected,It involves the kernel part of the player,If the vulnerability leaks out,The worst result,Tomato Video Network is likely to be completely paralyzed。

And the most important thing,Wu Tong, who presided over the design of the player kernel at the beginning, has already left his job to go to Phantom Electricity,The maintenance of this piece before was basically thrown at each other.,Finally, he was given one person to get it.,Everyone didn't pay attention to it.,Now the programmer who took over hasn't figured out the code.,There was a major bug.,It's too late to patch.,Where to find time to develop new features.。

Generally in large companies,It is categorically impossible for this to happen,The most important player kernel cannot be maintained by Wu Tong alone,But this did happen to Tomato Video Network,And,If no problem is found in this system upgrade,Then it is likely that this bug will continue to exist,Until the day of the loss。

This is a dereliction of duty by the technical department, Zhu Zhiguo naturally did not dare to report at will, only urged his subordinates to repair it quickly, but he did not expect this matter to be put on the table again, and as soon as the special team is established, I am afraid that this problem will be difficult to hide.

He sighed, and thought of Wu Tong who was not treated well by the people in the group, and no one kept a word until he left.

"If I had known, I wouldn't have let him go."
