Chapter 81 'Today's Toutiao'

Although Wanhu has produced many popular game series, electronic games have always had one limitation.

This limitation is its strong interactivity.

Yes, strong interaction is often a bit a bit, but for many children in the new generation, strong interaction is a disadvantage.

Because, compared to electronic games that require effort and brain-to-mind play, they prefer to watch something that can be easily entertained without using their brains.

If it is a bit malicious, it means that milk (meow) Toule not only needs to take out the pacifier, but also send it to the user.

Based on this issue, people from Wanhu Big Data Department actually had the idea of ​​making their own applications.

"Dongdong."

"Please come in," Takahashi said.

"Chairman, this is the application we want to make." said a young man who was not very old last year and was only about thirty years old.

As for the application he said he wanted to make, Takahashi had already found out in advance.

For those who are in Takahashi's current state, the so-called appointment system is not completely stylized.

Instead, he gave both sides a time to prepare each other. For example, Takahashi had already learned the overview of the young child who wanted to make an application before the young man came. He did not need the young man in front of him to introduce it again. He only needed to agree or deny it and decide how much resources he would give them.

"Your idea is very good," Takahashi said. "Indeed, now, whether in the United States or in Japan, we have found that many users do not like to actively search, but rather passively accept it. However, all push software now has algorithmic problems. They can always push things that make users unhappy. In principle, I agree with your practice of using big data algorithms to push messages."

"Thank you, Chairman." The young man hurriedly thanked him, thanking him for a while and said again, "That... Chairman, what do you think this application is called?"

"Since it's a news application, I hope users will open it every day. I think... it's better to call it 'Today's Headlines'. Of course, the content of the headlines is determined based on the algorithm, and there is no need to really push the same headlines to everyone every day."

"Yes! Chairman! It's called "Today's Headlines."

"Well, come on, come on. I will give you a 60-person organization. You can form a team as soon as possible and launch products." Takahashi said.

"yes!"

After the young man returned, he started to call the group team himself. After spending forty-three days, he finally launched the first big data news software for North America.

In principle, the software "Today's Headlines" is epoch-making. Because the push of content that users liked was still relatively unclear in the past.

Even if the user portrait is performed, the accuracy of the user portrait is worrying.

The big data owned by Wanhu is different. Almost all of the content on it is not filled in by the user, but collected by Wanhu.

Even users do not have deep understanding of themselves.

"Today's Headlines" has another innovation in the distribution behavior of user data. It is the software that can complete the possession of almost all newspapers before it can complete the subdivision and classification of readers.

Why do you say that?

Because newspapers and readers are a two-way process of selection.

People in the financial industry are happy to read the Wall Street Journal.

Ufu enthusiasts like to watch "Exploring the Alien World".

Because the content of traditional newspapers is limited, a newspaper can only achieve one direction of positioning.

Although traditional news software can store far more news than newspapers, the content location on the main page is still limited. Until this limited content, users who like these contents will be left behind, and users who don’t like these will leave.

The software "Today's Headlines" does not even have an initialization process to judge user preferences. It even says that it is just to prevent users from doubting it, and it seems that it needs to search for users' reading preferences and then push it accordingly.

In this way, the loss of reading users is avoided to the greatest extent, and such a separate software can meet the needs of almost all news readers.

As for the reporters who interviewed the news.

For such things, Wanhu didn't want to hire them at all.

Even after contacting traditional news giants and hearing their big quotes, Wanhu immediately gave up.

Wanhu plans to sign a large number of young reporters and then let a large number of users participate in creating news.

The reward for creators is based on the number of clicks.

And where does the profit from this software come from?

It's very simple, it's the main income of the Internet except for the online game branch - advertising.

This software has begun to be promoted in Wanhu Software Store in the United States.

Due to Wanhu's care, Wanhu's software store is still very high-quality now.

As long as it is a software pushed by tens of thousands of households, almost all of them can have good downloads.

As for how much retention can be, it depends on the ability of the developers of these software.

If the software is really easy to use, there will definitely be no fewer people who continue to use it.

After the software "Today's Headlines" was promoted on the first day, a total of 110,000 people downloaded it, and the retention rate on the first day was as high as 70%.

Among these 70% of the users, almost half of them have been browsing for more than three hours in a single day.

This is a very scary number.

You should know that an ordinary newspaper only takes about half an hour to read every day.

The ability to watch more than 30,000 people for more than three hours shows that the ability of "Today's Headlines" to retain users is far beyond that of traditional newspapers.

One-tenth of the remaining users had the idea of ​​trying to create news.

However, most of the news is "transferred" from other places.

This undoubtedly adds a burden to tens of thousands of households. We cannot delete these "transfer" news to hit the enthusiasm of creators, and when pushing, we must avoid pushing duplicate content to readers.

After a tense overtime work, the problem was finally solved.

However, because the information flow reading model of "Today's Headlines" is really advantageous compared to traditional newspapers or news clients.

Therefore, this software expanded very quickly, and it has been ranked first in the free software download list of 10,000 software stores (North America) for a month.

The number of daily active users exceeded 1.5 million.
