Chapter 1 Silver Sea Weibo

It had only been a month since Silver Sea Weibo was launched.

Su Yehao saw a message from Leibs in his email, telling him that the number of registered users had just exceeded 200,000, and the daily active users remained at around 80,000, a very high percentage.

Realizing the growth rate was quite fast, Su Yehao, with a hint of curiosity, checked the information about the number of Internet users in mainland China.

He soon received feedback from the assistant's office.

According to the latest data from the Northern Internet Network Information Center, they had just released a report on June 30, estimating that the number of Internet users in mainland China had exceeded four million.

There was no doubt that this number was inflated.

If those "Internet users" who didn't have regular access to the Internet were removed, such as students who could only use the Internet at school, the number of truly active Internet users reaching one million would already be a blessing.

This wasn't just Su Yehao's wild guess.

His tAt instant messaging software currently maintained around 750,000 weekly active users, while externally claiming to have exceeded three million registered users.

This was clearly playing a numbers game, since some users often registered multiple times to get a good account name. On average, only one out of every three registered accounts was actually logged into by a user, with no background records of adding friends or changing nicknames for the others.

This type of data would certainly not be made public, nor was it necessary. As the boss, Su Yehao could naturally obtain first-hand, accurate reports.

The total monthly active user growth of tAt and tot in the past year was not even as much as the weekly increase of Yanwenzi Group. The fundamental reasons were nothing more than two aspects: firstly, personal computers were too expensive, and secondly, internet access was too expensive.

Currently, the price of internet access in the North was still calculated at four yuan per hour for the first sixty hours, and eight yuan per hour for exceeding sixty hours.

Fortunately, there was new news from the mainland that internet fees might be reduced by another 30% to 45% in the second half of the year, and the restrictions on internet usage fees and tiered charging based on internet usage time would be lifted. This was undoubtedly a great benefit for Su Yehao's layout in the mainland.

The computer on the desk had been replaced with a Yellow Diamond, the one that Leibs and the others had sent last time.

At this moment, Su Yehao finished processing the files in his email and spent some time replying to each one.

Then, he logged into his Silver Sea Weibo account again and found that although he had disabled the private message function, there were still many people @ mentioning him, leaving messages, or liking his posts. The number of unprocessed messages showed 9999+.

What is a fossil-level internet celebrity?

From the perspective of twenty years later, Su Yehao was exactly that. He had a total of more than 60,000 followers. Looking at the entire network, no one could surpass him. New users registered and followed him with one click, thanks to official promotion, the effect was significant.

Casually browsing through posts related to himself.

Su Yehao suddenly became furious and muttered to himself, "What the hell? Did I stir up a hornet's nest? I didn't know until I looked, but the public intellectuals are so arrogant these days?"

Nangong Tian巧 came over to deliver dessert, a longan, white fungus, and lotus seed soup, personally... ordered by the family nanny, chilled and suitable for summer heat relief.

Hearing this.

The little girl asked curiously, "Who made you angry again? Get your gear, I'll go help you beat him up, put him in a sack and take him to fill the sea."

"...Last time I launched Silver Sea Weibo, didn't I post a few posts in the United States? People are still harping on it." Su Yehao reached out and took the small bowl, stirred it with a spoon, and tasted it. It was ice-cold.

"Ah~"

The little girl said, "I remember that there was such a thing. The Hong Kong newspapers also published it, and it sparked a discussion about whether or not to go north and buy property at the bottom of the market for retirement?"

"That's it. Before, I mentioned that most of the people who sold their high-quality properties and chose to go abroad would become jokes in the future. Now many people are replying to me saying how high the salaries are outside, with one month's salary being equivalent to a year's work in the mainland, and saying how clean the environment is abroad, how good the benefits are, etc., scolding me for using any means to sell houses. Many of them are marked as experts and professors, simply misleading people."

Su Yehao took a deep breath, feeling his blood pressure soar every time he looked at Silver Sea Weibo.

Usually, these people couldn't reach his level, but now the internet provided people with an opportunity to discuss him up close. All kinds of netizens popped up, and the discussion had been going on for a month with no sign of stopping.

Nangong Tian couldn't help but laugh and said, "Why do you care about their thoughts? Let them talk, anyway, you won't lose a piece of meat."

"It just feels annoying. I didn't say there was a problem with going out to work and earn more money, I just told people not to sell their houses easily. But looking at it from another perspective, the group of people who believe their views and sell their properties at low prices can move their positions and provide opportunities for others to take root in big cities. It can also be considered selflessness and not seeking rewards, they are really good people."

Su Yehao was too lazy to argue with the keyboard warriors, and casually typed, posting, "The topic of buying a house ends here. Look at it in ten or twenty years, and you will find that those who believe in me will be rich."

Immediately afterwards.

Su Yehao sarcastically replied to several posts that were attacking him.

After taking a closer look, the little girl was speechless.

She noticed replies like, "Which school is fortunate enough to have a professor like you, it's truly a blessing accumulated over a thousand years," "Hearing your words is like wasting ten years of study," "Hehe, you're such a genius," and so on.

After holding back for a long time, she reminded him:

"Brother Hao, are you sure this won't make the news? It's clearly adding fuel to the fire."

"It doesn't matter, I've understood it in the last two years, the most important thing is to be happy. The atmosphere has been built up to this point, if I don't respond, people will think I'm easy to bully. If the rhythm online is always being led by them, how can it be good? Although these clowns will be swept into the trash in the future, I just can't stand it, and I can't bear it."

After Su Yehao finished speaking, he looked at other messages.

Someone mentioned him in the hot searches, asking when the Yellow Diamond computer would be launched.

The company's official website had already replied, and the sales date was tentatively set for mid-September.

Judging from the situation, this hot search also seemed to be artificially manipulated. Considering the relationship between Chu Jun and Silver Sea Network Group, it was reasonable to advertise and warm up in advance.

After replying to a few normal posts, Su Yehao said to the little girl, "Do you have photos of the Maldives? I'll try out the new feature and advertise for you?"

"It doesn't seem necessary. There are many guests from other places, and the peak season is fully booked in advance. Brother Hao, let's take some time to travel too. Last time your mom also said she wanted to go play."

"We'll talk about it later. The weather is hot now, it feels more comfortable to go on vacation in the winter. Since you don't need it, then I'll advertise for Taobao, the netizens in the mainland are currently mainly college students, and also businessmen, targeted placement should have some effect..."

Su Yehao first opened the browser's bookmark bar and went to the Taobao official website managed by Ma.

He found that it had attracted more than sixty companies to join, mainly from Pengcheng, and most of the transaction volumes were zero.

Involving e-commerce, a new concept that just started to become popular in the mainland this year, can't be rushed for a while.

And the tot portal website is currently busy building an online news website, spending money to buy news from several large newspapers, which is simple and direct, moving the news from paper to the internet, losing money to make a name for themselves.

The post that was just posted on Silver Sea Weibo quickly got new replies.

Regarding the sentence "Those who believe in me will be rich," some people joked, and some said he was arrogant, but because it was Su Yehao, even if some people didn't like him, they had to grit their teeth and admit that he was indeed very good at making money.

A net worth of hundreds of millions of dollars had too much impact in this era. It was like a dimensionality reduction strike, more than two or three times the assets of the richest man in the mainland.

Although there were many people singing the opposite tune, there were also many people who chose to believe in him.

It just so happened that Su Yehao's view of persuading people to buy houses was in line with the interests of the authorities in promoting the marketization of the real estate market. This meant that the media organizations standing up for him were all heavyweights.

They could even radiate his remarks from the internet to newspapers and television, thereby triggering widespread discussion...
