Landers felt that he was lovelorn, and this feeling of lovelorn had been felt for four hours. Four hours ago, the Deep Space Tribe suspended maintenance.
In the announcement the day before yesterday, Deep Sky announced the website maintenance. This website maintenance will last for twelve hours, from 12 pm New York time to 12 noon the next day.
Shen Kong Company must have carefully considered choosing to carry out website maintenance during such a time period, so as to avoid the Internet time of most users.
However, Landers belongs to a small group of people, and his online time starts at twelve o'clock in the evening, which means that he will no longer be able to swim in the waves of the Deep Space Tribe tonight.
As a severe patient of the Deep Space Tribe, this was more uncomfortable for him than killing Randers.
Deep Space has not announced the reason for this website maintenance, which has left users with various speculations.
Some people say that due to the influence of Amazon, Deep Space Company's attitude towards the Deep Space Tribe has also changed, so it intends to transfer the website to another company. This maintenance is to prepare for this matter.
This is obviously bad news. Most users of Deep Space Tribe believe that the reason why they like Deep Space Tribe is because the business philosophy of Deep Space Company is very user-friendly. If it is operated by another company, it will definitely not be the same.
The Deep Space Company is so good.
Take a look at AOL's Tribe. It's obviously an old Internet company, but the website it makes can't even compare to the toes of Deep Space Tribe.
This news has a certain market, because Amazon's stock has fallen again in the past two days, and the financial market has been pessimistic, which has also reduced everyone's confidence in the Internet industry. Since Deep Space Company can sell Amazon's stock, it chooses to
At this time, it is also possible to transfer the Deep Space Tribe to others.
However, most people are still unwilling to believe this possibility, because Deep Space Tribe is not only an ordinary website for Deep Space Company, but also shoulders an important publicity task. Deep Space Tribe has become an important publicity channel.
Considering this aspect, Deep Space Corporation has no reason to throw away the Deep Space Tribe.
In fact, Deep Space Tribe is under constant maintenance. Sometimes it does not stop, and sometimes it stops. But generally, even if it stops, it can be completed in a few hours. Like this time, it was stopped for twelve hours at once, which is the first time it has ever been done.
.
Since the Deep Space Tribe is unavailable, Landers can only go to the chat group to chat with his friends.
Because the tribe was unavailable, even though it was past four o'clock in the morning, the Dongdong group was very lively at this time, and everyone was discussing the maintenance of the site.
[I think some new features should be added this time, so don’t think too much about it. 】
[Yes, Deep Space Corporation always likes to maintain a sense of mystery, and they don’t like to announce updates in advance.]
【But this time it took too long.】
[Then it may be a more important function. Of course, it may not be adding a function, but modifying the website design or something like that. 】
[I think the website looks pretty good and doesn’t need to be modified.]
[Well, I also think that Deep Space Aesthetic Online does not need to be modified anymore. 】
[What do you know? For things like aesthetics, you have to be in front, and you can’t be too far forward. You have to be a little bit forward.]
[For owls like us, this maintenance time is too unfriendly.]
[No way, who said we are a small group? 】
[How about we go to bed first and get up again at noon tomorrow to see what the website is like.]
[After sleeping all day, who can still sleep? Besides, it’s not tomorrow’s noon, it’s today’s noon. 】
[Is anyone playing games? Battle.net has recently updated new features. Let’s form a team and play together?]
[The online auditions for the next WCG are about to begin. Now a lot of experts on Battle.net are competing for points, so we should be careful.]
【We also went to join in the fun.】
[I heard that this year’s WCG will not be held in Jinling, is it true? 】
[It seems true. I am currently choosing a city. I heard it will be finalized in the first half of the year. 】
【Is it voted by netizens? 】
[Maybe so, could it be the same as the Olympics? 】
[Speaking of Olympic bids, is the bid for the 2008 Olympic Games about to begin? 】
[I don’t know, I haven’t paid attention to it, and I don’t usually watch the Olympics.]
…
The Deep Space Tribe's stop time was neither ended early nor delayed, and the website was released on time at 12 o'clock noon the next day.
Randers clicked on the website with dark circles under his eyes, and then saw a banner floating over the website, which read: This website update content.
He quickly clicked on the banner.
After Randers finished reading the update content, he was stunned. Deep Space Tribe had indeed suspended the website because of the update of new features, and the update this time was not small - after this update, some users can publish
Video content.
When he first saw some users, Landers subconsciously thought that the Deep Space Tribe wanted users to become members, but this was not the case. The so-called partial users referred to internal beta users, and these users did not need to pay any money.
The selection is made by Deep Space Company itself, and the selection rules for this group of users were not announced in the update announcement.
And even for some users, there are restrictions on posting videos. The size of the video cannot exceed 66m.
Landers is looking forward to this update very much, because he has always paid close attention to the movements of Deep Space Company, so he also knows that Deep Space Company is secretly participating in the competition for streaming media.
The ability to make such an update this time must be related to their layout in the streaming media field.
"Dong dong dong."
The dong dong icon on the computer desktop flashed, and someone called him.
Landers clicked on it and saw that it was a message from a friend who was an interior designer.
[Holder: Landers, have you read the official update from Deep Space?]
[Landers: I was just watching. They have updated the video upload and playback functions, which is amazing.]
[Holder: That’s not it. Deep Space officially released a new tribe with a video on it. 】
This chapter is not over yet. Please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Seeing this message, Landers raised his eyebrows and did not reply to the message. Instead, he immediately ran to the official Deep Space homepage to check it out.
Holder said that new tribe with video.
After arriving at the Deep Space homepage, as expected, as Holder said, there is a tribe with videos.
This video has a very cool title: The first video of the Deep Space Tribe.
Although it is very embarrassing, it is true.
Landers quickly clicked on the video.
Beyond his imagination, the video was played directly.
"No, can it be played without playback software?"
Landers was a little confused, but now the video was played directly, as if no playback software was needed.
The smoothness of video playback also exceeded Randers' imagination. The picture was very clear and there was no lag at all.
You know, it took a lot of effort for him to see a slightly clearer picture yesterday.
But now he can't control so much because the video has already started playing.
It seems like a cartoon, a yellow square box is in the ruins, it looks like a matchbox.
After about five or six seconds, the square box suddenly stretched out, with eyes, arms and tracks. It turned out to be a small robot.
The track rotated, and the little robot ran into a garbage dump, pulled out a lot of garbage, and sorted the garbage into a square. Then it ran toward a mountain with the garbage cube in its arms, until it reached the top of the mountain, and slowly put the cube down.
The camera slowly zoomed out, and the mountain where the little robot was located was actually a large garbage dump made of countless squares. Next to this garbage mountain, there were many taller garbage piles.
The little robot looks very small among these mountains of garbage. As the camera zooms out, the yellow color gradually disappears.
When the yellow completely disappeared, Landers discovered that these mountains of garbage actually formed a word.
At this time, the voice-over also sounded.
"On June 10th, YU's new book, "WALL-E" will be officially launched."
And the word formed from the garbage mountain is exactly: WALL-E.
boom!
Landers slammed the table and stood up excitedly.
"Landers, what happened?" Mother's voice came from outside.
Landers smiled and responded, "It's okay, Mom, the chair accidentally fell over."
There was no sound outside.
Landers paused for a moment, then rubbed his hands excitedly and walked up and down the room.
He stayed up for such a long time without sleeping just to see if there were any updates from Deep Space Tribe. Unexpectedly, he got a double happiness. Not only did Deep Space Tribe update its video upload and playback functions, but the first video released was actually from YU.
New book preview.
June 10th, then there are less than two months left.
Although he didn't understand the video just now, this video at least looks very realistic and is real science fiction.
Who knows how long these science fiction fans have been waiting.
Fortunately, everything was worth it, YU did not break his promise, and he indeed has a new science fiction work coming out.
Boom, boom, boom.
The picture flashed again.
[Holder: How is it, have you seen the video? (Excited expression)]
Landers sat down hurriedly and began to reply to the message.
[Landers: I see it, I see it. The new book "WALL-E" will be released on June 10th. We have finally waited for this day.
】
[Holder: Yes, I have finally waited for this day. It can be seen that this novel is about robots, and it seems to be a robot that specializes in collecting garbage. Wall-E is quite cute.]
[Landers: This is the first time I have seen the release of a new novel. A promotional animation was specially shot. Could it be that the production of an animated film has already begun? 】
[Holder: I haven’t heard of this news, so it’s probably not the case. Moreover, this video is quite crude. It’s fine for showing on a web page, but it’s not good for making a movie.]
[Landers: Oh, by the way, when it comes to video playback, what technology is used in Deep Space? No playback software is needed. The video is played directly, and it is very smooth. 】
[Holder: Haha, you should have a flash plug-in installed in your computer.]
[Landers: Yes, yes.]
[Holder: That's right. The videos of Deep Space Tribe are played directly using flash. As long as there is a plug-in in the computer, it can be played. As for why it is so smooth, it is a technical issue. It is difficult to explain to you clearly. Anyway, you just need to
Remember, this is the characteristic of flash. In addition, let me tell you something, flash is actually owned by Deep Space Company.】
[Landers: Really, I haven’t heard of it.]
Landers paid a lot of attention to Deep Space Company, and he also paid attention to Deep Space's layout in the field of streaming media, so when he heard that Flash was also from Deep Space, he was very surprised.
[Holder: I just found out that they seemed to have taken it two years ago, but they have never made any noise. You don’t have to be surprised, flash is nothing to Deep Space Company, they are in the streaming media
The layout is definitely more than this.】
[Landers: It feels like we are not discussing an entertainment company, but a computer oligarchy like Microsoft.]
[Holder: Do you think deep space is still a weak newcomer in the computer industry?]
[Landers: Without realizing it, he has become so powerful. 】
…
Deep Space Tribe added video upload and playback functions, coupled with the promotional video of "WALL-E", which immediately ignited the newly opened Deep Space Tribe.
That night, after Jimmy read the website data for the day, he called Yu Dong.
Yu Dong had just had breakfast and was about to go to class when he received a call from Jimmy.
"I'm in a hurry to go to class. Tell me if you have anything to say."
Jimmy said with a smile, "Just to tell you good news, our Deep Space Tribe's traffic hit a new record this evening, and the number of new users also increased a lot. We have spent a lot of money on streaming media in the past few years.
The money finally paid off. Now many media and newspapers are asking how to get the qualification to upload videos."
Yu Dong nodded, as he expected.
In fact, there are not many websites that can play videos and upload videos, but Deep Space Tribe is the first social networking site with huge traffic and perfect integration with Flash. Smart people can see business opportunities in it.
Whoever is qualified to upload videos will have an advantage, especially for those media, which is especially important.
"Have you not already made a list of which media outlets will be eligible?"
"Haha, the list has already been made, but I still want them to worry for a while, otherwise they won't know who gave them this bowl of rice. After they get the qualifications, they must first send a message to "WALL-E"
Related news. However, even if we don’t ask, they probably won’t want to miss such a huge wave of traffic. You don’t know, after the video was released at noon, your loyal science fiction fans went crazy. The Hugo Award and the Nebula Award
The official tribe has fallen."
Yu Dong laughed, "What kind of fall method?"
"Those crazy readers went to the official website to comment, hoping that they would award this year's award to "WALL-E"."
"puff--"
Yu Dong just took a sip of water and almost spit it out, "This year?"
"Well, this year."
"Tsk, tsk, that's crazy enough."
Chapter completed!
