Chapter 215: The server crashed

Views:

The new discoveries of particle waves are too far away from ordinary people, and after a day, they have no intention to pay attention to them.

The next day, "White Sand" will be launched.

The advantage of occupying the market and developing word-of-mouth is that it is easier to launch the next generation of products.

There is no need for publicity, as long as there is no problem with the product quality, users will naturally choose to buy it.

The smart assistant of Xingyao AI mobile phone has an overwhelming experience, and many mobile phone users will not have any doubts about the AI of the smart robot.

In addition to the preparation of the previous popular video about intelligent robots and the specific parameters announced at the press conference, the intelligent robot "Baisha" immediately became the hottest product at the moment, costing 200,000 to 300,000 yuan for a mid- to low-end sedan. The price cannot stop many consumers from wanting to own “white sand”.

Just like the Xingyao AI mobile phone, the mass production of "White Sand" is far from meeting the needs of users. As ten o'clock is approaching, countless people are sitting in front of their computers, waiting for the official Xingyao website to open pre-order channels.

It’s time to compete in hand speed and luck.

In the spacious office area of the Shining Star Group's technology department, dozens of technicians sat in front of computers, staring at the countdown LCD screen with bated breath, nervously.

5, 4, 3, 2…

The program set by the official website automatically runs, the pre-order channel automatically opens, and a torrent of data emerges in an instant.

"Mr. Chen, the number of visits has exceeded the peak. Server No. 7 cannot hold on anymore and needs to exit the server cluster."

"Mr. Chen, server No. 11 is no longer working."

“…”

The technicians were shouting anxiously one by one, and alarms were blaring. They had expected that the number of visits to the official website would definitely reach a peak today, but they did not expect it to come back so quickly. The moment the pre-order channel was opened, there was an overwhelming amount of visits that caused the server to crash. .

Technical Director Chen Fan frowned and ordered as expected: "Enable the detection and elimination program to eliminate all access requests from fake proxy IPs. The number of visits cannot exceed the peak of the billion-level server cluster."

Server cluster (refers to gathering many servers together to perform the same service, which looks like only one server to the client. The cluster can use multiple servers to perform parallel computing to obtain high computing speed, or it can use multiple The server makes a backup, so that if any machine breaks down, the entire system can still run normally.)

"Understood." The technicians' eyes lit up and they responded in unison.

"No, Mr. Chen, the number of visits is still high."

"Mr. Chen, this is the same situation here."

"Mr. Chen, the server has crashed!"

“…”

After activating the access IP detection and elimination program, the technicians found that the effect was not achieved at all. They were suddenly covered in cold sweat. They looked at Chen Fan anxiously and asked for help.

Hearing this, Chen Fan broke out in cold sweat on his forehead and asked nervously: "Have you found any abnormal data flow? Have we been attacked by hackers?"

"No, there is no abnormal data."

“They are all real visits.”

"What's going on! It's not a hacker attack. How come so many people are snapping up a robot worth two to three hundred thousand dollars? Are there really so many rich people?"

“…”

The huge number of visits crashed the server in an instant, and the technicians were almost crying, shocked and puzzled.

"Mr. Chen, why don't you let Director Jay come over and take a look? Time is running out." Suddenly a technician suggested.

"No need, I'm here, what happened?" When Chen Fan was about to say something, Zhou Xing's voice came from behind him.

Chen Fan turned his head in surprise and saw Zhou Xing, Lin Wei, and Yang Minghua slowly walking into the technical department.

"Mr. Zhou, it was due to my negligence in my work that the number of visits today instantly exceeded the peak that the server could bear, causing the server system to crash." Chen Fan looked at Zhou Xing apologetically and explained.

"Well, this problem is easy to solve. Restart the server and limit the number of user accesses." Zhou Xing looked at Chen Fan and said calmly.

"Understood!" Chen Fan nodded and said with a wry smile: "I just can't figure out why the number of instant visits exceeded one billion. This data is far beyond our expectations."

"Haha, isn't this great! It shows that our company's products are very popular!" Yang Minghua said with a laugh.

"Yes! It's just a pity that due to time constraints, our mass production is far behind the needs of users." Lin Wei said with some heartache.

"Haha, don't be deceived by this phenomenon. The reason for reaching the peak of one billion visits is more driven by profit. It is not the real demand of the 'Baisha' robot." Zhou Xing waved his hand and said with a smile.

"Yes! It's still caused by the imbalance of supply and demand. The price of 'Baisha' is too low. Now users who have grabbed 'Baisha' can make double the money as long as they change hands." Lin Wei looked at Zhou Xing and said in agreement.

"This price is suitable for promoting 'White Sand', and the value strategy remains unchanged." Zhou Xing remains unmoved. He cannot delay the widespread application of intelligent robots because of excessive pursuit of profits.

"Mr. Zhou, Mr. Chen, the server has been restored, and 'White Sand' was sold out in ten seconds." A technician reported to Zhou Xing and Chen Fan.

Hearing this, everyone was overjoyed.

In ten seconds, 300,000 "White Sand" robots were sold out, and countless customers were consulting customer service staff for other types of robots. The capital account of the Star Star Group was immediately credited with 100 billion.

"Damn it! What a crappy website, it's as rubbish as a certain railway's ticket booking website. I've even entered the purchase confirmation page, and I'm stuck on the payment confirmation!"

"Brothers who want to buy a deluxe version of 'White Sand', 500,000 yuan and have it in stock, please contact me."

"Successful purchase. A screenshot. There are pictures and the truth. The hand speed I have developed after being single for 25 years. Please pay for it if necessary."

"It's upstairs, why don't you leave your contact information? I'll add another 50,000 yuan to the original price! Contact: 175****."

"You're paralyzed, I've been single for thirty years and my hand speed is too fast to grab it!"

"I'm so stuck. For a company as big as Shining Star Group, why is the server so rubbish?"

“…”

The comment area of Xingyao's official website immediately exploded. Countless netizens who couldn't get "White Sand" and were frustrated by the website left messages in the comment area to curse and beg to buy... There were tens of thousands of various comments.

The "White Sand" robot is very popular in China. Due to the relationship between output and policy safety, the intelligent robots of Shining Star Group can only be launched in China. People in other countries can only look at it with envy. Who makes them have no one similar to Shining Star Group? Such advanced local companies cannot produce practical housekeeping intelligent robots.

Sales exceeded 100 billion in ten seconds, and Shining Star Group immediately became the most valuable company in the world, shining brightly.

On this day, Shining Star Group attracted the attention of countless people around the world. Many foreign workers rushed to China to participate in interviews and seek positions for the future prospects and benefits of Shining Star Group. At the same time, a group of temperamental Special foreigners were also among them, slowly walking out of Beijing International Airport.
