However, this was just the beginning.
When the number of videos uploaded per day exceeded 50,000, Huanyu Video launched an activity to repost videos.
This activity was considered normal for many websites.
This was because many websites would repost videos in order to promote their own websites and attract more IP traffic.
But generally, such websites wouldn't have much of an effect if they forwarded the link.
Many people did not like to click on such reposts.
However, once the number of reposts suddenly increased by 10 times, 100 times, or even 1,000 times.
Then, you'll find out how terrifying the IP flow brought about by this forward is.
"Brothers, I've posted a video on Huanyu Video. Help me pay attention to it."
"Handsome, this is my video. Support it."
"It's a video that was just taken today. You should like it no matter what."
How did the number of reposts increase?
It was actually very difficult.
Even if many websites did activities, the number of reposts would not increase.
However, Huanyu Video was an anomaly.
The reason why the number of reposts was 10 times, 100 times, and 1,000 times more than other websites was because Huanyu Video turned more viewers into original creators of the video.
It was just like how it was introduced previously.
Most of the users who viewed the video later became uploaders.
This ratio reached an astonishing 3: 1.
In other words, 1 out of 3 viewers uploaded the video.
This was a very terrifying number.
One had to know that even for youtobe, it looked like it had 10 million IP traffic.
However, in reality, the original creators of the video might not even use 1 million. In fact, even 500,000 was barely enough.
A series of videos on youtobe were created by a small group of people and then sent to countless users to browse.
However, it was different in Huanyu Video.
Users were viewers and also participants.
Therefore, there was an astonishing explosion in the number of reposts.
Moreover, their motivation to repost was also stronger.
After all, they were reposting their own videos. They also wanted more people to reply and follow them.
At the same time, Huanyu Video also introduced fan value.
If you reposted, you could get more fans.
The more fans you had, the more popular you were.
Not to mention that this popularity could make you an internet celebrity in the future, it was also good to have more fans to show off.
…
"Bryn, sorry for the trouble."
"Huanyu's video IP streams are exploding all of a sudden. Currently, it's about to reach 3 million."
Page, the founder of Google, was a little nervous.
Huanyu's videos, which he had not paid much attention to in the past, had reached one-third of YouTube's IP streams in just half a month. One had to know that Huanyu Video was a new website. It started from scratch. Generally, it would take at least a year for a website that started from zero to reach a million IP streams.
In other words, one year was awesome.
1 million IP streams was something that some websites would never be able to achieve in their lifetime.
"Oh my god, so fast?"
Brin was also a little confused. "Is there something wrong with the data?"
"No."
Page stared at Huanyu's video website and said seriously, "Not only has the number of IP visits exceeded 3 million, but at the same time, the number of videos uploaded per day has exceeded 70,000. At this rate, the number of videos uploaded by them will surpass that of YouTube in less than a month. "
Even now, Youtobe's average daily upload rate was only 100,000.
In fact, 100,000 was already very scary.
One had to know that the capacity of 100,000 videos was hundreds or even thousands of gigabytes of hard disk storage per day.
Just the computer room used to store these videos was already more than 2,000 square meters.
This was only temporary. In the future, they planned to expand the computer room to the size of a football field.
This was also one of the reasons why it was so expensive to start a video website.
"It's all because of that 15-second short video?"
Bryn scrolled through the 15-second short video in Huanyu's video.
It was obvious.
Although he had not been able to find out what was so interesting about the 15-second short video, it was very convenient for users to upload.
As long as he took a video with a DV, he could upload it.
This kind of operation did not need to be proficient in movies. Even a primary school student could do it.
"It should be said that more than 95% of it is because of these short videos."
Paige frowned and continued to scroll through these short videos.
He was prepared to study this short video again.
Although they knew that Huanyu Video had launched this short video service, they did not think that there was anything special about this short video. Other than the fact that the video was only 15 seconds long, these short videos did not have many advantages.
In terms of interesting points, they were not as professional as long videos.
They were also not as funny as long videos. They were more knowledgeable.
But it was this kind of short video that created such a huge IP stream.
"These comments should be real comments from users. They don't seem to be fake."
After studying it carefully, both of them felt that they had underestimated Huanyu's video.
However, why did these short videos have so much magical power? They still had a headache over it.
"Let's have a meeting."
"Today, we'll focus on Huanyu Video's short video service."
Both of them knew that Huanyu's video had threatened their position in Youtobe. If they did not pay attention to it, Youtobe might fail miserably. After reading the notice, Youtobe's senior management and Google's management were called over.
"Everyone, I believe that all of you have seen Huanyu Technologies's short video service. Now, let's analyze why these short video services are so attractive."
The people under Google were all elites.
Although they did not understand it at first, after gathering everyone, they realized the essence of it.
Firstly, the short video service was easy to operate. Anyone could try to shoot a video.
Secondly, the short video service made use of Wechat's social network.
The social network here was similar to posting logs, photos, and stealing vegetables on Wechat's social network.
These people posted logs, photos, and even stealing vegetables. What they cared about the most was not how impressive the logs were, how beautiful the photos were, or how well they played the game.
What they cared about most was interacting with their friends.
Although short videos were called videos, they were equivalent to ordinary users' social network. The seemingly boring videos posted here were actually videos of the users' daily lives. Although some of these videos were boring, they were very realistic. At first, it might not seem like much. However, after watching more, you will realize that these videos are quite interesting.
Thirdly, the user's stickiness.
The stickiness of video websites was very low. This was because videos were not necessities. They could choose not to watch them. On the other hand, the stickiness of social networking sites was very high. This was because social networking sites were not just websites. They also had their own social network function. However, the stickiness of Huanyu's videos was not only because of his social network. It was also because of his model. A 15-second video would disappear after a refresh. You would spend 15 seconds on a video. However, although 15 seconds was short, it could not stop you from continuously refreshing the videos.
One after another, 15 seconds were refreshed. One or two hours passed just like that.
This kind of usage time of one or two hours on a website completely exceeded the usage time of a series of websites.
Not to mention Youtobe, even Wechat's social network seemed to be a little inferior.
"Paige, we should start our short video service immediately."
After looking through the research, Brin said excitedly.
They had made a mistake previously. This time, they had to follow up.
Based on their analysis of these short videos, if they did not follow up in time, Youtobe would very likely be overtaken by them.
"No, we haven't completely figured it out yet."
Paige shook his head.
During the meeting just now, everyone had basically studied the 15-second videos in Huanyu's videos very clearly.
However, Paige felt that there seemed to be something that he had not figured out.
