Rebirth, Starting from 2005

The popularity of the website soared, and the most intuitive benefit brought about was that the recharge amount of Starlight Coin was opened at once.

At the beginning, the monthly virtual currency recharge income of the website was several thousand RMB.

Up to now, the popularity has increased, and the monthly virtual currency recharge income can reach more than 100,000.

With starlight coins, you can buy some virtual props on the website, improve your level, and make your appearance more dazzling.

You can also give rewards to your favorite posts, and the website will deduct 10% of the handling fee, and the rest will belong to the poster.

There are too many starlight coins in hand, and it is not useless.

The website will not recycle Starlight Coins according to the recharge price, but the website has created a small mall where Starlight Coins can be used to exchange for the goods inside.

The shopping link of that mall is the Golden Morning Sun online store. This online store sells clothing, not just clothing, but also some small accessories.

The kind of glass bracelets that can be seen everywhere in ten yuan stores, in this small mall, are boutique jewelry worth hundreds of thousands of starlight coins to more than one million starlight coins.

There are also clothing worth millions to tens of millions of Starlight Coins.

In the Golden Chenxi online store, the prices of these clothing are often marked with an original price and a current price.

As for the products exchanged for Starlight Coins in the Starlight Network Small Mall, the recharge ratio of 10,000 to 1 happens to be the original price marked on those small commodities.

This can give those changers a little comfort.

The main purpose of creating such a small mall that can be exchanged for items is to prove that Starlight Coins still have value.

Although the value is not as high as Q coins, at least it can be exchanged for a string of bracelets and a piece of clothing.

There are some popular forum celebrities who often post hot posts, and they can even exchange for a few down jackets after receiving starlight coins as rewards.

It is precisely because of its practical value that some forum celebrities will change their ways to ask readers to reward their posts.

This also increased the enthusiasm of netizens to recharge.

However, the scale of the website is now large, and the cost of maintaining the website is also high. The virtual currency recharge income of more than 100,000 yuan a month cannot maintain the expenses of the website at all, and the company needs to post additional money in it.

However, with the traffic blessing of this website, the sales of the two online stores, Golden Morning Sun and Nishang Yuyi, have risen to another level.

And the website has also started to receive advertisements, although the advertisements that can be received now are basically some unscrupulous advertisements, such as advertisements for online stores selling adult products, and advertisements for some games.

In terms of accepting advertisements, Yan Xin still has a principle, that is, he does not accept advertisements that are deceptive and unscrupulous, and he does not accept advertisements that are illegal.

The entire website cannot be pitted for a little profit.

In general, the website is still operating at the expense of money, but it has gained popularity.

From the perspective of Starlight Entertainment, the website traffic has not been realized in a timely manner.

But from Yan Xin's personal point of view, this traffic has been realized - at least it has exported a lot of traffic to the two online stores of Golden Morning Sun and Nishang Yuyi, and the sales of these two online stores have repeatedly hit new highs.

Moreover, as a promotional position for artists under Starlight Entertainment, it is also of great benefit to maintain a certain degree of exposure for several of their contracted singers.

More importantly, the dedicated music forum has also attracted a group of creators.

The higher the popularity, the more high-quality creators will appear.

Some of the original works that were published on this forum and bought out by Xinguang Entertainment also became popular on the Internet.

Cultivating those creators will be the foundation of Starlight Entertainment in the future.

Although this website is still losing money, it has generated such a large amount of traffic and retained some netizens, showing a very good prospect.

At the beginning of November, someone contacted them, wanting to acquire this website, and the asking price reached 10 million.

But Yan Xin rejected it.

He is not short of the 10 million. He has a platform for his own development, slowly becoming popular, and has a lot of room for development.

It is still in the 2G era, and there are many ideas that cannot be developed. When the network infrastructure is better and the network speed is faster in the future, we can use this platform to do some more promising things.

After Ai Lili expressed her intention to resign, she talked to Yan Xin about what she could do at Starlight Entertainment. Yan Xin's suggestion to her was to visit Starlight.com when she had time, and told her that the operation of this website is a very important business of the company. , as the general manager, you need to understand the operation of this website, and you also need to understand the Internet thinking.

Before officially entering the job, his suggestion is to let Ai Lili learn more about this website as a forum player.

Ai Lili knew that Yan Xin opened such a mobile website, but she didn't like to use her mobile phone to surf the Internet, because the Internet speed was too slow, and it took a few seconds to refresh the page, which was a bit of a test of patience, so she didn't play .

That is, I registered an account there at the beginning, and after shopping for a few minutes, I didn't find anything interesting, and then I didn't go there.

She heard from Yan Xin that someone offered 10 million yuan to buy this website, and she couldn't understand it—isn't it easy to create such a website? Thousands of dollars can be made, why spend 10 million to buy it?

After listening to Yan Xin's suggestion, I retrieved my previous account and browsed this website in my free time.

Then I found that the content of this website is already very rich.

At the beginning, there were only eight forums, and then there were some CRBT songs.

Now the homepage has a lot of content, the community has various games, and dozens of forums have been opened.

And the number of real-time online users displayed on the homepage of the website has reached a terrifying 200,000 people—this data is not so real, but she didn't know it, and thought it really had such a high popularity.

It is not difficult to understand why someone is willing to spend so much money to acquire this website.

This website already has a certain scale.

She didn't know how to build a website to such a large scale in just a few months, which made her feel that Yan Xin is very powerful, and that this is a talent that is more powerful than songwriting.

I thought to myself: "Fortunately, he didn't stay in the community as a security guard, otherwise such a talent would be delayed."

She browsed the forums of Xingguang.com for a few days, and she visited the most popular forums.

Then I couldn't help complaining to Yan Xin: "Your website is so messy, the hottest content is all those messy content."

Yan Xin replied: "Those messy things are the most attractive things in the online world, and they are also the core of this website. If you want traffic, you have to learn to coexist with these messy things."

Ai Lili expressed her concern: "But if you do that, aren't you afraid of being investigated?"

"Before the iron fist hits, increase the traffic. When the iron fist is about to hit, let's clean up the whites and behave properly." Yan Xin answered her this way.
