Start earning money as the girl next door

Zhao Han didn't think too much and said with a smile: "Jingjing, it's been a long wait!"

Then Zhao Han helped Chen Jingjing get her luggage, and everyone took a taxi and returned to Wenwen Jingjing's company headquarters first.

On the road, the street lights gradually turned on.

The number of pedestrians coming off work and school gradually increased.

However, the traffic volume is still very small. After all, cars are still a luxury item in the county.

Office workers with a monthly salary of several hundred yuan generally do not consider private cars.

Gradually, Zhao Han even saw the lunch box fairy Zhang Lihua’s stall and set it up.

Basically, not far from home and work.

……

"Jingjing, this is our company, Wenwen Jingjing Technology Company!" Chen Wenwen was very happy, "Both of our names are in it. I really don't know what Zhao Han thought. He didn't add his own name and used ours. name."

"Low-key, low-key! Sometimes, it's a little inconvenient for me. You know, I have to hide the pastries first." Zhao Han said with a smile.

"Haha..." Chen Wenwen also knew Zhao Han's plan, writing books and starting a company, just like Infernal Affairs.

In the evening, there were not many employees working overtime in the company, but two people volunteered to take shifts, mainly to guard the company's property to prevent others from sneaking in and stealing it.

Although there is an iron gate to the courtyard, it is very easy to climb in.

Although there is a door to the office building, it is actually quite old. A knock from the outside can open it without a key.

It is more secure to have two people guarding it. In addition, it also strengthens employees' awareness of protecting company property.

Of course, when Zhao Han gets rich in the future, he plans to raise dogs in the yard.Also, hire full-time security guards.

They are real security guards, not those gatekeepers in Zhao Han's community. They really only look at the gate and nothing else.

A thief broke in and stole the battery?If the door is not stolen and the door is intact, then it will be fine.

That kind of mentality, I just look at the door. In essence, I don’t blame others.

Because the salary of the gatekeepers is very low, so we really can only recruit some retired uncles to come and look at the gates and make some extra money.The purpose of the uncle is that having someone there is more of a deterrent than having no one watching the door, and bad guys are afraid of being blackmailed if they hit the uncle.

In some high-end communities, where the owners can afford higher property fees, it is not impossible to hire special forces to serve as doormen.When people encounter bad guys, they dare to fight because the wages are high and those with good skills are bold.

"Boss, Mr. Chen..."

The little girl who stayed to work overtime at night was Lu Yan, and the other one was tea girl No. 2 or No. 3?

Zhao Han didn’t know either.

In the future, I'm afraid there will be more and more employees, and it will be impossible to remember everyone.

"Thank you for your hard work on the night shift!" Zhao Han said in greeting.

"It's not hard, I just play online." Lu Yan said with a smile, "The boss's novels are really good. I have been studying online articles for a while, and the ones written by my boss are the best."

"You're so sweet." Zhao Han flattered him and found it very useful.

"I tell the truth. Many book club groups and website comment sections say so. Even on the Dragon Forum, there are many people who comment on the boss's novels. He is a literary giant!" Lu Yan showed that she is very knowledgeable. I flattered him again.

"Are you Tea Girl No. 2 or No. 3?"

"It's No. 3! Boss, I'm Lu Jingjing, the tea girl No. 3."

Zhao Han looked at Lu Jingjing and Lu Yan and asked, "You two look very similar, are you relatives?"

"A bit related, distant cousin." Lu Yan said, "I really wouldn't know if I didn't tell you. Later, I talked to Jingjing about several generations of my ancestors, and then we became relatives."

Tea Girl No. 3, Lu Jingjing took advantage of the situation and told the boss her name, which was also a bit scheming.

After all, I was deceived by Zhao Han's several flattering speeches.I feel that the future of the company will be bright.

And if they join early, they have the opportunity to impress the boss and pass themselves off as old employees.

From now on, even if you don’t have any skills, you may still be able to keep up with the company’s development through hard work.

"Let me introduce to you, this is our company's chief technology officer Chen Jingjing, the sister of President Wen Wen. I am a childhood sweetheart. I have a computer science degree from Tsinghua University. I graduated this year and came to the company to report early." Zhao Han introduced with a smile, "Especially you, Lu Yan, from now on, the Internet Editorial Department will have to wait until Jingjing develops the website, and then you can bring the author over, and then the commission will be settled."

When Lu Yan heard this, she looked at Chen Jingjing with a face like a dog.

"Jingjing, can the website code be put online for testing?" Zhao Han asked.

"As long as there is a server and a fixed IP address, it is best to apply for a domain name and you can test it." Chen Jingjing said confidently, "After the code is written, the local computer can deploy it. If it doesn't work, just put the computer on The computer room can also be used as a temporary server.”

"Should I buy a server?" Zhao Han said, "I've seen the prices. Low-end servers are not much more expensive than PCs. At present, the highest-selling servers on the market are actually between 1 yuan and 2 yuan. Like this The server supports our website, okay?"

"For a long time, there will be no problem. You can just upgrade it later." Chen Jingjing said.

"Approximately how many readers can be accommodated to read at the same time?" Zhao Han asked.

"Only for online reading, the access speed of a single IP is limited. It is no problem for 1 people to access and read at the same time! But... it is best not to provide downloads. Downloads consume more traffic and put more pressure on the server!" Chen Jingjing thought for a while.

"Only idiots provide downloads! It's best to watch them online!" Zhao Han said with a smile.

"The pastry Chinese website provides downloads!" Chen Jingjing analyzed.

"I won't provide it!" Zhao Han said flatly.

Providing downloads is mainly because the pastry Chinese website considers users to read in an environment without an Internet connection.

Therefore, the public version of the content is provided for download, and subsequent paid versions still require online subscription to watch.

Zhao Han does not provide download directly.

The main reason is that many users read it offline, which reduces the time spent accessing online articles.

Chapter 95 The modest Zhao Han

Nowadays, the Internet penetration rate is still increasing, and the cost of home Internet access is also decreasing.

As household broadband penetration increases, not providing a public version for download will have little impact.

Most novel websites in later generations also canceled the function of downloading the public version.

In the future, Internet platforms, including novel websites, will mainly compete for user time.The longer a user stays on a certain platform, the greater the commercial value he brings to the platform.

Giants such as Tencent and Alibaba are all worried about Douyin's user duration.

Why?In the beginning, users may just browse short videos on Douyin, and Douyin sells ads, which will not make people feel like they are facing a formidable enemy.

But users spend a lot of time on Douyin. Can Douyin try to launch an instant messaging function?

Goose Factory saw that Douyin also had an instant messaging function and felt threatened.

And now that Douyin has developed an instant messaging function, and then started incubating online games, it won’t be difficult to promote long videos, right?Goose Factory feels more like being robbed continuously.

Since Douyin has such a high number of users, it is not difficult to understand why it is engaging in live streaming to bring goods and enter the e-commerce market, right?

As Douyin crosses over into e-commerce, Alibaba, JD.com, and Pinduoduo, who were originally in a close relationship, have gradually eased their relationship and are paying more and more attention to Douyin and Kuaishou, who are fiercely grabbing the cake.

Nowadays, Internet companies only look at the number of visits and PV views, and few pay attention to the duration.

The idea of ​​paying attention to user duration will probably not be taken seriously until Byte has become a leading company through Douyin, and can even threaten the status of Tencent and Alibaba.

The leading Internet giant has accumulated hundreds of millions or even more than one billion monthly active users.The size of users is not a big problem for all leading giants.

The length of time users stay on your platform is the most important thing.

The duration was reduced, as you can guess, and it was transferred to a friend.

The duration is high, which is equivalent to a street with dense traffic and a large number of users staying in this area.

Since users are here, there will always be what users need when it comes to selling drinks, barbecue, clothing, mobile phones and various other products.

In the end, users will be able to transfer the amount of money they spent in other places to the place where they stayed the longest.

Used to choose to uninstall APP, most of which are used less and have a low proportion of time.And keep those that have a high duration and are used frequently.

This is exactly what it means to be aware of duration.

Later Internet companies will try their best to compete for time.

If I'm in the game business, there isn't enough time to compete.Then, I launched a series of product matrices such as music, novels, comics, long videos, e-commerce, sports and fitness, office work, dating... to divide users' time.

With this concept of duration, reading novels offline, listening to music offline, watching videos offline...the value cannot be said to be zero, and it is infinitely equivalent to zero.

Even if users use your content, but the time they stay on the platform is very short, essentially it means that the commercial value of the platform is very low.

Zhao Han builds a novel website, but in the future he will still run e-commerce and other businesses.

Other businesses can also open entrances to each other.

For example, why should a website for reading novels only be for reading novels?You cannot connect your own e-commerce platform to the novel website.

When users are tired of reading novels, they go to the e-commerce shopping section, and they may subconsciously buy goods. Isn’t it wonderful?

"If downloading is not provided, the requirements for network bandwidth and server hardware configuration for online reading will be very low." Chen Jingjing thought for a while and said.

"I don't understand technology, so I just said this. I budget 3 yuan to buy server hardware. Then, how many users can the website accommodate to read novels online?" Zhao Han said.

Although there are rumors in the world that in the late 90s, Ma Huateng directly stuffed his personal PC into the telecommunications computer room as the OICQ server.

At that time, even if the PC was a top-end PC, its performance would probably be poor now.

However, Ma Huateng simply used his personal PC as a server, which was downloaded by hundreds of thousands of users at most. In the end, he had no choice but to start using higher-performance professional servers.

It shows that when Ma Huateng first obtained hundreds of thousands of users, he only used personal PCs as servers.

There are also many websites with low investment. A typical example is that Mingyang.com later closed down because it could not make ends meet and could not afford the server fees.During the peak period of Mingyang.com, its income would not exceed 1 yuan per month. After its decline, it could not afford the server fees, which would probably be less than 3000 yuan or [-] yuan per month.

In the era of personal webmasters, the operating costs of a novel website can be as low as less than a few hundred yuan per month to maintain operations.

But at the same time, as Internet companies reach a certain scale, hardware investment continues to increase, which is also a huge expense.Hundreds of thousands, millions.Tens of millions, hundreds of millions of yuan, there is no end to burning money.

By the way... Zhao Han remembered that Jianjian had cooperated with Tencent in 05, and Tencent QQ live broadcast activities brought traffic to Jianjian.

As a result, Jianjian Wu's servers crashed. Not only did it not rise due to Tencent's introduction of unprecedented traffic, but it ended hastily. The website was shut down for more than ten days before it resumed operations, resulting in heavy losses... Tencent kindly gave it a large amount of money. Jianjian couldn't bear it, but it accelerated Jianjian's decline!

This is also one of the things Jianjian has bad luck with. A failed enterprise always encounters a lot of bad luck magically.

Some of them can be great opportunities. The opportunities that the big boss takes to fly, the opportunities that can soar into the sky, can also fall apart.

In a sense, Zhao Han is still outrageous about the investment cost of hardware for a website.

Chen Jingjing simply told the facts in an easy-to-understand way: “It mainly depends on the network bandwidth, assuming that a novel webpage is 20KB.

1M bandwidth only has 128kb available per second, which can probably accommodate 6 readers at the same time, clicking on the next page at the same time.

In fact, it takes time for readers to read a book, even if it only takes 1 minute per page.When viewing, the web page has been loaded, and no traffic or server hardware resources are consumed.Calculated this way, 1M bandwidth can accommodate 360 ​​readers reading at the same time.

If there is 100M server bandwidth, the peak number can accommodate 600 readers to click on the next page. Assuming that readers finish reading a chapter in one minute, it is roughly estimated that it can accommodate 1 readers to read books online!

A novel website with 10 daily users can be supported by a low-end server, and the hardware requirements are not too high.

I can even optimize it so that the traffic of a single reader visiting the webpage does not exceed 10KB per second. When the reader clicks on the next page, the webpage loading speed is slightly slower, but it can theoretically double the maximum number of people online at the same time. "

Chapter 96 Make your alma mater proud of you

"Hey, do you understand? You're from No. [-] Middle School!" Lu Jingjing looked confused. She seemed to have a slightly higher education than a high school graduate.But it is the third middle school that is the disgrace of the county town, the legendary middle school with poor students.

"I'm confused too. I graduated from the second and junior high schools. But at least you went to high school." Lu Yan couldn't help but change the topic with Lu Jingjing to the most common topic among parents in the county.

"As expected of a student from No. [-] Middle School, he was admitted to Tsinghua University. We don't understand what he's talking about at all..." Lu Jingjing continued to shiver and hugged another student to keep warm.

These two guys are not good at studying. It is estimated that when they have children in the future, they will use all their efforts to let their children pass the No. [-] Middle School first.

In terms of educational resources, No. [-] Middle School has indeed won at the starting line. Whether it is the teaching staff or the learning atmosphere, it is equivalent to the reserve team of a famous school.

After passing the No. [-] Middle School in the high school entrance examination, I gained access to the county’s educational resources.

This so-called topic in No. [-], No. [-] No. [-] will soon become an old topic in the future.

For a long time, excluding villages and towns, there were mainly three middle schools in the county.In the high school entrance examination, naturally, the first middle school scores the highest, the second middle school comes next, and the third middle school scores the bottom.

Later, a small county was merged with the provincial capital and began to have No. [-], No. [-] and No. [-] middle schools.At that time, it would be inappropriate to mention that Lao Huangli No. [-] Middle School was scum.

It's no problem to be good at No. [-] Middle School. Chen Jingjing was admitted to No. [-] Middle School in high school.Almost the group of students with the highest scores in the county's high school entrance examination every year go to No. [-] Middle School.

Zhao Han studied in No. 20 Middle School. The No. 90 Middle School is mainly composed of high school students. There are more than ten classes in one grade, and sometimes there may be more than [-] classes.There are [-] people in a class, and I wish I could add tables, chairs, and benches in the hallway.

The second middle school has the largest number of students, so it often has the largest number of university admissions.I often use bragging skills to say that this year I am number one in the county, and I am number two in science or liberal arts.The number of undergraduate admissions once again overwhelmed No. [-] Middle School.

So I would like to ask, why is No. [-] Middle School not the best middle school in the county? Why?

But the real situation is that No. [-] Middle School disdains comparison with No. [-] Middle School.The number of students in the high school section of No. [-] Middle School is much smaller than that of No. [-] Middle School. It mainly provides elite education.The key classes of No. [-] Middle School steadily output students who can pass the Qingbei Resumption of Diplomacy every year. The admission rate of prestigious schools can be compared with key high schools in provincial capitals.
