Chapter 33: Lao Li's Dream

Two days later.

Old residential building, inside a small house.

Lao Li is the webmaster of the "Mud Text World" website.

This site, in 2010, was particularly offbeat, with the community only discussing wordplay.

The website has been established for 15 years, and at first it was the third place of its kind, and now it has finally survived the other two and become the first place.

Text online games, before the emergence of large-scale online games in 2000, there were still a lot of people who played them, including several popular games "Chivalrous Travel", "Book Sword", "Journey to the West" and so on.

Pure word games are now already in the sun, and they can't be cooler anymore, and there are very few people who play them.

Lao Li is 40 years old this year, his website traffic is getting lower and lower day by day, on the most authoritative ranking in China, "Webmaster's Home" website, has fallen from the game list, 857 to 14572, and now he is still insisting, purely for love to generate electricity.

His original dream was to make the site one of the top 100 in the gaming category.

The number of posts in the community is very low, the number of new posts per day is less than 50, most of them are old users, come to check in to remember their youth, and then leave QQ to pull acquaintances into the group.

In the first two years, I could still receive some advertisements, but in the last six months, the situation has been very poor, and I can only rely on die-hard fans to reward and maintain the operation of the website.

The office has also moved from the office building to the old community, and in addition to him, only Xiao Wang, a salesman who has followed him since the establishment of the station, remains.

Lao Li's wife, because of the website, quarreled with him and didn't know how many times, this time he made the most fierce, and threatened to divorce him if he didn't find a serious job, but as a result, he made such a fuss, and directly made his mother angry to high blood pressure.

Lao Li began to shake the dream that he had held on to for 15 years.

I'm not in the mood to pay attention to the website in the past two days.,There's nothing to see.,No one has spoken in the last 1 year.,He's browsing the "58.com" website at this time.,I want to know.,A few servers in the office.,How much can it sell now.,When you get to the old and the young.,It's time to think about it.,What are you still insisting on?,Dream,Hehe......

Yes, there is no money to eat, and what dreams are you talking about.

Perhaps, it's time to put an end to it.

Lao Li opened the "Mud Text World" website and wanted to take another look, this old guy who has been with him for 15 years.

Every corner of the website, every icon, is designed by his own hands, the more you look at it, the more reluctant you are, this is your own youth.

Well?

What's going on?

The number of posts in all discussion sections is rising in a straight line, especially in the "Flood Every Day" section, where the number of new posts in the past two days has directly exceeded 3,000!!

Is there a problem with the display?

Lao Li was not very excited, there had been things that showed mistakes before, he checked twice in the background of the website, confirmed that there was no abnormality, and inadvertently saw that the newly registered users exceeded 10,000 in the past two days!

What's going on?

The number of registrations per day, there should only be dozens of people, right, Lao Li's brain is in chaos, could it be a hacker attack?

In the first year or two, this kind of thing often happened, but now that the website is not what it used to be, how can there still be hackers to extort it?

No, these registered users appear to be real people, not bots generated by traffic attacks.

With excitement and anticipation, he clicked on the "Irrigate Every Day" section, and at the same time he was very afraid that all this was a dream bubble, maybe it was really a hacker.

"How many places have you reached in the "Life Reopening Simulator"?"

"This morning, I rushed into 10,000 and just spent 6 yuan to unlock the martial arts version, which is cool and crooked."

"I wrote a "Life Reopening Simulator" strategy, which only sells for 5 yuan, QQ private chat."

"Who still has my back, I have reopened more than 100 times, and my points have fallen by 30 points."

"Why are so many people here today, what kind of game is "Life Reopening Simulator", do you have an address?"

"Actually, I've been diving for ten years, come up and bubble, experience +3."

"This is definitely the most fun word game, easy and fun, much more fun than the "Knight's Journey" that fights and kills."

Life Restart Simulator?

What kind of game is this?,Why is it all about this game.,I've never heard of it.,Is it new in the past two days?

With so many real players registering, the website ranking should be able to rise a little.

Open the "Webmaster's Home" website, enter your own website, and check the ranking, Huaxia game website, No. 520!!

Oh my!

"Mud Text World" was founded 15 years ago, the highest ranking of 857, or on August 12, 1999, Lao Li drank a lot of wine that day, and a group of colleagues patted their chests and bragged, must be within 3 years, the website to 100, unexpectedly, a word into a prophecy, directly slipped to 10,000 outside.

Lao Li was so excited that his hands couldn't stop shaking.

"Brother Li, you want to invite me to a big dinner tonight!" Xiao Wang, who was running business outside, entered the door with a loud shout, and his face couldn't stop being happy.

"Got an ad? Is it a week or a month? ”

Lao Li looked at his smiling face and had already guessed eight points, but what he was most concerned about was whether the advertising time was a week or a month, because most of them only bought a week's advertising space, tested the effect, and then there was no follow-up.

"Hey, guess what."

"A month?"

Lao Li estimates that it will be a month, otherwise this guy would not be so happy, a month is not bad, with this thousand yuan, the website can last for a few more days.

Xiao Wang had a proud expression on his face: "Hang the homepage of the website, one year!" ”

Lao Li got up from the chair with a "poof".

One year!

It's still the homepage of the website.,The homepage hasn't been advertised for a long time.,According to two thousand a month,There's 20,004 a year.,My website doesn't have to be closed!

Lao Li stabilized his mind and asked expectantly, "How much money does the other party give?" ”

Xiao Wang didn't speak, raised his index finger, and looked at Lao Li mysteriously.

"Ten thousand?"

Lao Li was a little disappointed, but after thinking about it, it would be good for someone to buy the homepage advertising space, 10,000 is 10,000, and it is important for the website to survive.

Xiao Wang gritted his teeth, and from his mouth, two words popped out vigorously: "One hundred thousand!"

"What, what! Lakh! You say 100,000?! ”

Lao Li was so excited that he almost couldn't stand steadily, for fear that he had heard it wrong, so he hurriedly asked again.

Xiao Wang took the contract out of his bag and slapped it on the table with a smug face: "100,000, the advertising space on the homepage of the website is one year, and the contract has been signed, can this still be fake?!" ”

He picked up the oranges on the table, peeled them off, stuffed them into his mouth, and said with a smile: "Brother Li, I'm afraid you're going to invite me to eat Boston lobster at night." ”

Lao Li looked at the contract word by word, and after confirming that it was correct, he laughed, patted Xiao Wang's back, and said: "This thing is well done, you kid wants to eat the full banquet of the Han Dynasty, I will invite you!" ”

"Ding~Bell~Bell~"

Lao Li's phone rang.

"Hey, is it the webmaster of the Mud text world?"

"yes, I am."

"I'm going to rent your homepage advertising space, and you can make a price."

"I'm sorry, sir, the advertising space on the homepage has been rented out, the advertising space in the irrigation area, you see ......"

The other party was obviously not interested, and interrupted Lao Li's words: "In this case, you guys are making a special partition of "Life Reopening Simulator", I want the top advertising space in this area, 150,000 a year, do you think it's okay?" ”

Lao Li was stunned, he was a little confused, today's happy events are one after another, and he has been engaged in websites for 15 years, this is his happiest day.

Is it really God's way to reward hard work?

No, it's the Life Restart Simulator!

The other party didn't hear a reply for a long time, so he hurriedly increased the price and said: "Stationmaster, 200,000, it's okay, if it doesn't work, I'll ...... again"

Lao Li came to his senses and immediately agreed: "Okay! Just 200,000 a year, I'll ask the salesman to contact you and talk about the contract. ”

The website is not only preserved, this is the rhythm of making a lot of money!

My wife will never mess with herself because of money again.

All of this is thanks to Life Reopening Simulator, and you have to take advantage of that.

He has already made a plan to immediately open a discussion area for "Life Reopening Simulator", and then promote the game on the whole site, and also have to advertise his website to increase exposure.

Isn't it the top 100 Chinese game websites?

Dry! That's it!

Xiao Li himself didn't expect that at the age of 40, he could still find the passion for entrepreneurship when he was young.
