You Were Told to Design Software, But You Created Tiktok?!

7: Section 7Finally, Tuanzi, having finished her live stream, closed the room and then casually opened and scrolled through Weikan.

She usually loved looking at handsome men, so she wanted to see if there were any good-looking ones on Weikan.

But as soon as she opened Weikan, videos about computer technology appeared before her.

Scrolling down once.

It was a video about economic issues.

Scrolling again.

It was a video about postpartum care for sows.

Again.

It was a video of repairing tires in Country A.

Watching one uninteresting video after another, Tuanzi frowned repeatedly, finally returning to her phone’s home screen and instinctively opening Douyin.

Tuanzi had downloaded Douyin before, but only because Douyin didn’t have enough money to pay her for promotion.

After she opened Douyin, the first video was a handsome man showing off his muscles, the second and third were all videos of various handsome men, with other types of videos only appearing occasionally.

Even Tuanzi herself didn’t notice that after casually opening Douyin, she quickly scrolled for two hours!

Chapter 8: Big Data Exposed, Overwhelming Average Online Time!

The third day after Weikan launched.

Magic City Penguin Building Software Department.

Logically speaking.

With Weikan’s explosive launch performance, the software department should have been happy.

But at this moment, the atmosphere in the software department hall was somewhat oppressive.

”Something’s not right, something’s not right, how can Douyin’s daily active time be so high?”

At this moment.

In the department hall, several gazes were fixed on the data panel displaying information about Douyin and Weikan.

”Although it’s only been three days, our Weikan’s downloads have already exceeded thirty million, but our average user time is only a little over ten minutes, while Douyin’s has already exceeded an hour,” a voice chimed in.

”While many people certainly just downloaded the software for the Q coin reward and deleted it after use, it shouldn’t be this short.”

”Could it be that it’s really not a coincidence, and Douyin truly has some unique algorithm that can extend user online time?”

Previously.

Because Weikan had not yet launched.

Most Douyin users were unaware of the existence of Big Data, including the employees of the Penguin software department.

Everyone hadn’t realized that the reason they always found content they were interested in on Douyin was due to Douyin’s unique algorithm.

But when Weikan launched.

This drawback and gap truly and tangibly lay before everyone.

After all, the contrast was too obvious between one software that could always show videos users were interested in, and another that couldn’t.

And at this moment.

Mr. Li, the person in charge of Weikan, also slowly walked out of his office.

”Weikan had just launched for its second day when someone in our team discovered the existence of this issue.”

”The videos on Douyin always show us what we’re interested in.”

”Regarding this, a team worked overtime last night to perform data comparison and search.”

”We indeed found.”

The person in charge took a deep breath.

”Inside Douyin, there is a unique code.”

”This code can collect and organize data by tracking the duration users spend on different videos and their likes.”

”Ultimately, it filters out content that different users are interested in and recommends similar content.”

”This is indeed an algorithm we have never seen before.”

”An algorithm based on a large amount of Big Data.”

Listening to the person in charge, many employees nodded continuously.

”So that’s how it is.”

”I was wondering why Douyin’s average user time was so exaggerated.”

And the voice of the person in charge continued to sound.

”But everyone doesn’t need to worry.”

”Douyin’s scale is too small, simply unable to compete with our Weikan.”

”Although they have Big Data, which currently leads to a higher average user time than ours, our user count is genuinely several orders of magnitude higher than theirs.”

”User count is the most crucial factor.”

”Moreover.”

The person in charge took a deep breath.

”I have already arranged for people to develop our Weikan’s Big Data.”

”I expect it won’t be long before Douyin will be completely delisted.”

.

At this moment.

Inside Junzi Software Design Company.

”That’s amazing, boss, why did you keep it a secret until now?”

”I was wondering why you were so confident, thinking Penguin couldn’t do anything to us. Turns out it’s because of Big Data.”

”The boss is indeed the boss. So many of us didn’t even realize you had a Big Data backend left in Douyin.”

Zhang Fan and a few others were in Wang Mo’s office.

When Weikan launched, they all downloaded Weikan because they wanted to know the quality of this competing product.

After using Weikan for a short while, they also discovered Weikan’s biggest problem at the moment, which was the inability to consistently see content they liked.

So Zhang Fan and the others went directly to Wang Mo’s office to inquire.

That’s when they learned about the existence of Big Data.

And Wang Mo also smiled.

”Actually.”

”As long as you paid attention to the video recommendations on Douyin, you could easily notice that different people scrolled through different videos.”

”I’m quite surprised that you only just discovered this point.”

Listening to Wang Mo’s voice, everyone scratched their heads somewhat awkwardly.

”But boss.”

Zhang Fan thought for a moment.

”Penguin will definitely discover the existence of Big Data very soon and then develop their own Big Data.”

”At that time, our Douyin’s advantage will be gone.”

Wang Mo chuckled softly.

”Big Data isn’t that simple to develop.”

”Penguin might be able to develop their own Big Data, but it simply cannot compare to Douyin’s Big Data.”

”They will discover this very soon.”

Seeing Wang Mo say this, the heavy stone in Zhang Fan and the others’ hearts finally dropped.

”So we still don’t need to bother with Weikan?”

”No need to pay attention to it,” Wang Mo nodded.

”We should now enter the next phase of Douyin.”

”Currently, Douyin’s user base is continuously increasing, and many Douyin users have developed the habit of scrolling through Douyin.”

”Next.”

Wang Mo took a deep breath.

”We should start thinking about profiting from Douyin.”
