Chapter 893 The Feat of 200 Million People
"How can this be?!"
More than 30,000 users and more than 20,000 posts poured in in one minute. This data was unimaginable in 2001, when the Internet speed was only a few tens of kilobytes. So many users poured in in an instant, even if Qiandu was engaged in a marketing campaign. Never appeared before.
In other words, according to common sense, this kind of thing is impossible to happen!
suddenly!
All the employees working overtime started screaming!
"Look at the database backend quickly!!!"
"Oh my God, why have the data increased so much?"
"There are 180,000 new registered users, and the number of posts has exceeded 100,000!!! And this number is still growing at a terrifying rate!!!"
“The homepages of all popular Tieba forums have been wiped out. They are all posts attacking us!!!”
Panic! ! !
All the staff working overtime were panicked! ! !
If they first discovered the crusade posts, they thought they were sending traffic to Qiandu.
So now the terrifyingly growing traffic has turned into a dangerous situation. If we can't control this skyrocketing traffic, the server will definitely be overloaded!
At this time, Gao Yan, the department manager present, was already sweating profusely.
Just now, the background monitoring data showed that in less than 10 minutes, more than 600,000 users flooded into Tieba, and more than 500,000 users were posting frantically.
Now the server is giving crazy pop-up warnings, and even the computer room has begun to sound the alarm, which means that the server is overloaded!
And that's not the scariest thing.
The most terrifying thing is that there are still more than one million users queuing up to join the Tieba, but they can’t get in. No matter how many Tieba they are, they can’t open it. No matter how they refresh the page, they always show 404 not found!
And those users who successfully posted a crusade post only found out when they tried to post a second post... that they had also been offline!
At this moment, the traffic that Qiandu Tieba dreamed of has turned into a terrifying nightmare!
The service area of Tieba was overwhelmed by posting requests and access requests. The staff were so anxious that they were sweating profusely and all said to the supervisor Gao Yan:
"What should the supervisor do? The server is going to explode!!!"
"The current server is overloaded and cannot bear such a large amount of traffic. Moreover... there are at least one million people outside trying to enter the Tieba server!!!"
"Think of a solution quickly, supervisor! If this continues, it will cause downtime! If the server goes down, it will be an SSS-level accident!!!"
"how so?!"
Gao Yan's head was buzzing and his face was full of disbelief.
Although Tieba is already a mature project, there are not many people online at the same time. Most users are online at fragmented times. Therefore, in order to avoid wasting server resources, Tieba's servers are of the order of 5 million.
But why is it overloaded when more than one million people visit it at the same time?
This is unscientific!
The staff explained: "Our server is in the order of 5 million, but that is 5 million people browsing online at the same time, not 5 million people requesting to post at the same time, let alone each user posting in a swipe-like manner! This amount of data writing is not enough even for a tens of millions of servers!"
Gao Yan wiped his sweat and forced himself to calm down: "What happened? Why did so many users flood in instantly? Is there a hacker attack?"
The staff shook their heads: "No, none of the IP addresses of these users are duplicates. They are all real users, not data flow attacks by hackers."
"Not a hacker? What do you mean, these nearly 2 million people all spontaneously registered and poured into Tieba at the same time? How is this possible? Who could organize so many netizens?"
An employee suddenly said: "Senior supervisor, I know what's going on. Look at this."
Gao Yan quickly looked over.
I saw that employee’s TT messages constantly flooding the screen.
In a TT group called "Anti-Qiandu Tieba Alliance Group", countless netizens are excited!
"Hahaha, Qiandu Tieba has been turned into a fool by us!"
"You deserve it, you stole my post, I just asked them to indicate the source, but they actually banned me directly!!!"
“Oh my god, the community sent congratulatory messages in groups!!”
"Yahu forum sent congratulatory messages in groups!!!"
“The Maopu Forum sent congratulatory messages in groups!!!”
"..."
After Gao Yan saw the news, he immediately understood what was going on.
Someone must have launched these netizens to carry out malicious retaliatory actions in the name of Qiandu Tieba's pirated posts.
Of course, not all of these people are netizens whose posts have been stolen. Many netizens just like to join in the fun, and they are the kind of people who don’t take it too seriously when watching the fun. They are eager to make things worse!
Seeing Gao Yan stunned for a long time, the staff couldn't help but ask: "Director Gao, what should we do now? Should we temporarily shut down the server?"
Gao Yan gritted his teeth and said coldly: "No, shutting down the server will allow this group of garbage to achieve their goal! They will be even more rampant in the future! You go and delete all the posts of these newly registered users directly in the database, and then in the background Add a post verification code mechanism to limit the posting frequency so that each user can only post one post per hour!"
The staff member hesitated and said: "This... the verification code mechanism is disgusting enough... You can only post one post per hour. Will it also disgust normal users?"
Gao Yan slapped the table and cursed angrily: "Then what do you think we should do? Do you want me to go to my superiors to apply for a new server, so that these bugs can come in and scold us, and then waste all the resources of the newly applied server?" Lose?"
The staff member shut his mouth helplessly.
But as Gao Yan said, any current user experience is nonsense.
Since the history of the Internet, we have never heard of more than 2 million people attacking a website together.
This is definitely a first of its kind! One that can be written into the history of the Internet! ! !
If no countermeasures are taken, they will all be fired tomorrow and take the blame!
If your butt is burned, who cares about the user experience?
As a result, programmers began to operate frantically.
At the same time, Gao Yan also urgently reported the matter to Tan Jun.
When Tan Jun received this call, he was drinking with friends, and he was even drunk.
After hearing Gao Yan report the situation, Tan Jun lost all his drunkenness in an instant and almost peed in fear!
"Do as you say first, I'll rush over right now!"
Gao Yan said: "Yes!"
Tan Jun: "By the way, select some troublesome users and ban their accounts to scare the monkeys!"
"In addition, the business of stealing posts will be suspended, and all previously stolen posts will be removed from the shelves. This matter is such a big deal, it is estimated that everyone in the Internet industry will know about it tomorrow, and the impact will be very bad!"
"Qiandu dd will officially launch the public beta version soon. We must not let the post bar business hold us back, so the pirated posts will be removed from the shelves first, and then re-listed after the situation calms down and the dust settles."
Gao Yan: "I understand, Mr. Tan."
Gao Yan also knows that after this news gets out tomorrow, no one will blame those who came to blast the bar, but will blame Tieba instead.
Even Tieba is likely to be nailed to the pillar of shame.
It is a wise move to remove the pirated post first, so as not to make a fuss about it and criticize Qiandu, thereby affecting Qiandu dd.
Of course, even if someone makes a fuss about the stolen posts, Qiandu can still use the same old reasons: Qiandu is not legally responsible for the user's personal behavior!
Then he announced in a high profile that he had set up an audit department to review infringing posts and infringing users. Once infringement is discovered, it will be removed from the shelves immediately!
Besides Qiandu, who else is such a responsible and attitude-oriented company in the industry?
…
…
During this period when the Tieba server was overloaded.
Netizens returned to their respective TT groups to celebrate victory!
Under Chen Mo's instructions, Wan Xuebing quickly developed a super large group function for hundreds of thousands of people.
Hundreds of thousands of people are chatting online at the same time, replying, and refreshing the screen so fast that you can definitely apply for a world record!
At the same time, due to the success of the popular bar, TT also unexpectedly gained a lot of users.
Chen Mo and the Five Tigers of Moxin personally participated in this unprecedented explosive event.
Ma Teng pointed at the trash and scolded him harder than anyone else!
It's as if Qiandu really stole his post.
Looking at this unprecedented huge network war, Chen Mo couldn't help but smile evilly and said: "Don't Qiandu want traffic? We are sending millions of users over this time, Qiandu must be very happy!"
Ma Teng gave a thumbs up: "Boss, the loss is still yours!"
Chen Mo smiled and then called Wan Xuebing: "Bingzi, have you done everything I told you?"
"Don't worry, boss, I'll give you a nice grooming!" Wan Xuebing licked his lips and smiled: "The online trolls we train are all professionals! In addition to the whole process of this busting operation, they have pictures and texts In addition to intercepting the screenshots, we also privately chatted with the netizens who were reposted and obtained a large amount of evidence from them."
Chen Mo said with satisfaction: "Okay, keep these things, maybe they can be used in the future. In addition, compile the most representative information and send it to the media."
Wan Xuebing: "Okay, I'll have someone write the draft and it will be done before tomorrow."
Chen Mo: "Let me be sharper with my words. I must stand on the moral high ground and step on Qiandu! I will give you whatever the public relations expenses are! I must make this matter known to everyone and make Qiandu known." Du Tieba stepped on me so much that I couldn’t breathe!!!”
"If you dare to attack my core business, I will kill your core business first!!!"
Wan Xuebing trembled and nodded: "I will definitely do it!"
It’s so scary when the boss is serious!
Even across the phone, Wan Xuebing felt like he was facing a savage beast!
Chen Mo continued: "Also, the explosion operation is not over yet. Qiandu should take action soon. People in the group must not open the champagne at halftime."
"Okay, I'll do it right away!"
After hanging up the phone, Wan Xuebing contacted his internet troll leader and asked him to send a message to the large group, reminding everyone that the operation to explode the bar was not over yet and not to celebrate the victory too early. Although Qiandu Tieba was currently overloaded, it was not Not completely closed.
The group of friends were excited. After hearing these words, they had no choice but to get excited again, almost as if they had been given a shot of chicken blood: When the Tieba can enter, we will continue to blast. As long as it dares to open, how many times it opens, how many times will we blast? ! ! !
