Is this mangaka crazy?

Chapter 160: Danmu Trend



"Ren!"

Sakura looked at the website's backend data and excitedly grabbed Ren's arm.

"Our web traffic data is getting much better!"

They saw that, in Station C's backend data, the number of website visitors last week exceeded 700,000, the number of IPs exceeded 400,000, views reached 38 million, and the number of paying members was 500,000.

This also shows that many visitors are rushing to "Edgerunners".

After all, there are 500,000 paying members, which represents 60% of the total visitors.

In addition to "Edgerunners", Station C currently has no other place to open a membership.

"Of course!"

Ren laughed. This is an exact copy of his previous life's successful and mature business model.

How could it not be? This is the advantage of having the experience of one's predecessors.

It allows one to take fewer detours.

In his previous life, B Station learned the models of N and A Stations from its predecessors, organically combined them, and explored its own business model.

Only then did it achieve success.

It can be said that B Station can change, but it cannot be revoked, but B Station is, without a doubt, a very successful bullet screen website in Japan.

That's why Ren asked Sakura and her Station C to follow B Station's path in his previous life.

He even wanted to follow the short video route of a certain Ti Tok; after all, short videos are the general trend.

However, Station C is still just a website, and short videos are not easy to create.

At least when Station C has a mobile client, short videos will play an important role in supporting mobile software.

On computer websites, people still tend to watch long videos or choose a type of video they like to play.

"However, currently Station C's traffic mainly comes from Edgerunners."

Ren said: "In the future, we need to convert viewers attracted by Edgerunners into regular website users, which still depends on other creators."

"Yes, that's right, we can't just rest on our temporary success in front of us."

Sakura nodded and then hesitated: "Ren... do we really not need to introduce other popular animations?"

Currently, in addition to the successful "Cyberpunk 2077: Edgerunners", Station C has also introduced many other animations.

But most are relatively old series.

Although many of them were very popular at the time, they are now outdated.

Other websites, such as Yuutube.com, basically offer these series.

But in addition to these series, Yuutube.com also has many popular series that have already been broadcast on television.

To put it bluntly, all the series that Station C currently has, except Edgerunners, they all have, and others too.

But what others have, they might not have.

Sakura was still determined to buy a large number of popular anime series to stabilize traffic.

After all, she had just received an investment from her father. Although it was only 5 million yen, Ren directly "paid" to buy the server and used technology to invest in the company.

She still hadn't spent much money, so she should be able to buy many anime series.

"No need," Ren continued with a smile: "We don't need to introduce so many of these currently airing anime series, at least not now."

'Didn't B Station introduce a large number of anime series at the beginning?' 'Didn't it work even if it didn't?'

Although he started introducing a large number of the latest anime series later, it was only after he went public and had the money to raise funds.

He didn't introduce the latest anime series at the beginning, but he still became a huge success.

This shows that the key to the success of the bullet screen website lies not only in the anime series themselves.

It lies in... accurate positioning and unique content.

Bullet screen culture is an important point, and the numerous derivative video contents of ACG culture are the key to B Station's success.

Therefore, instead of spending all our money introducing a large number of new programs, it's better to first do a good job with our own website's video content and optimize the user experience.

"The most important thing for us now is to support those original bloggers who are passionate about ACG culture," Ren said: "The most important thing is passion, and secondly, we must use creative incentives to support these bloggers, and we cannot let them generate energy simply out of love."

"What videos?" Ren asked with bright eyes.

"Ghosts, ACG works like animation for film and television, anime editing, beauty, cosplay, video game teaching! Everything is fine!"

...

The current popularity of "Edgerunners" is still increasing.

After all, it is still broadcast on television, and the mainstream of the parallel world is still television and paper works.

The popularity of the internet and computers is still slightly lower now.

Especially for children, how can they have such good conditions to use computers?

Some families don't even have computers.

However, the main audience of "Edgerunners" is not children.

People like Haruto, who are already adults but still enjoy anime, are the main audience.

However, he watched all the episodes

of "Edgerunners" in one go on Station C by Browse the internet. Since then, "Edgerunners" continues to have great popularity.

At the same time, since Haruto opened a one thousand yen membership on Station C, he did not forget Station C after watching "Edgerunners".

That's why Ren suggested to Sakura to directly create a paid membership channel.

It was created specifically to become a member and watch "Edgerunners", which is more economical and profitable than buying "Edgerunners" separately.

In addition to making money, there's also...

People always care about what they spend their money on.

Just as Ren opened a membership in a certain video software in his previous life because he wanted to watch a series, he definitely wouldn't rush out after watching it.

Instead, he would use his membership privileges to watch other popular dramas.

Haruto did the same. In the following days, he opened the series section and rewatched "Edgerunners" several times, and after feeling very good,

he watched other anime again.

It's a pity...

"The series here are very old," Haruto said with some dissatisfaction.

There are currently quite a few animation series on Station C, and Sakura has directly introduced over 500.

But most are relatively old.

The latest is only the "new series" from two years ago.

As for the popular series of recent years, there are none.

However... in the new series section, it's also quite interesting to revisit old series.

Haruto did so and watched several old series that he liked very much in the past few days.

At that moment, he saw that there was a...

"[Edgerunners]Final animation edition: With my shattered body, I become furious fire! Take me to the moon!"
