Chapter 1535 The Easter Egg Buried by Li Mu

The more popular Twitter is in the Western Internet world, the more fans Li Mu has on Twitter.

Li Mu's name on Twitter is "Li Mu Limu", and there is a certification mark. The certification information reads: Founder of Muye Technology.

Even users who do not understand Chinese can easily use "Limu" ​​to search Li Mu's Twitter homepage.

Because Titter's gameplay is too advanced for users, the users' admiration for Li Mu almost goes hand in hand with their love for Titter.

Li Mu did not force users to follow him by default, but his fans still grew rapidly.

Li Mu's first Titter was a photo of him and Prince William. However, the young Prince William was not well-known in other countries outside the UK at this time. Most netizens were wondering when they first looked at the photo. This photo was taken with Li Mu. Who is the man?

At this time, look at the content of Li Mu's tweet: "Hello everyone, this is my first Titter, at the moment I am in England, with William."

William of England? Most people still can't guess that this person is the prince of England.

However, at the end of Li Mu's text, there is a special character x-on: followed by a string of English names: illiam·Louis.

Users don't quite understand the meaning of the string of characters x-on:illiam·Louis. If the William Li Mu said is this illiam·Louis, then why should I add an x-on:?

Moreover, this string of characters obviously has the blue color that only hyperlinks have, which makes many old netizens involuntarily move the mouse cursor to this string of characters, and then tap...

The browser immediately pops up a new page, and this page is the personal Twitter homepage of this illiam·Louis.

Here, there is his certification information: William Louis, a member of the Royal Family of England...

Now, many people realized that this person turned out to be the prince of England.

However, the prince is not important, the important thing is, how did you come here just now?

Li Mu added a magical character to his tweet, this character is x-on:illiam·Louis,

illiam·Louis is Prince William's Titter name, so does it mean that x-on: is the key to giving the other party's name a hyperlink function?

"x-on:", one of the soul tricks of Titter and Weibo, is actually an Easter egg hidden by Li Mu.

This easter egg was not written into Titter's beginner's guide, because Li Mu didn't want users to be exposed to too many various functions as soon as they came up, which would block Titter's core global gameplay.

Instead of putting it in the guide, it's better to put it in a hidden level and let users discover it by themselves, because the users who can discover it are basically familiar with Titter, and it's time for them to start Advanced.

When users first discovered the x-on: function, they instinctively thought that it was just a hyperlink, but when they started to try to use each other, they realized that it was not as simple as a hyperlink, it represented a This kind of call, a Titter user, a precise call to another Titter user.

This feature began to make Twitter's tweets more layered.

Originally, Twitter tweets had two levels:

The first layer is for all Titter users, because Li Mu did not add the function of group visibility in this version of Titter, so every Titter of a user is undefended in the world. In theory, any Titter user can read it, the only one. The question is whether he will see;

The second layer is to face the friends, acquaintances, fans and other Internet contacts of Twitter users. Although every tweet he publishes is aimed at the world, the most likely to be received are those who follow him;

Now that the function of x-on: has been explored by users, Titter has a third and deeper level.

The third level is that not only can the whole world have the opportunity to see it, and people who pay attention to it can see it with a high probability, it can also specify to notify a certain user and call him to see it.

For example, User A tweeted, "I really want to go to Chinatown for a hot pot." Then he x-on: his girlfriend, so that the whole world can see this tweet, his attention Everyone knows that he wants to go to Chinatown for hot pot, but his girlfriend can get such a call, as if this Titter was specifically for him.

As a result, this feature began to spread like crazy on Twitter and was used a lot.

Foresighted users have started to x-on: their friends constantly, and later-conscious users are browsing the Twitter they follow, and a prompt pops up in the upper right corner: "A Twitter mentions you."

Speaking of you, these four words have great magic power on the curiosity of users.

Users will be eager to know who mentioned them and in what kind of content.

As a result, most of the users who have been x-on: will click on the prompt, and when they click in, they will immediately see the tweet from their friends calling them.

Subsequently, they also began to become loyal fans of the x-on: function.

Many users who were the first to discover the usage of the x-on: function all forwarded Li Mu's only Titter, and the core content of the text was basically the same: "Titter developed such a magical function of x-on:, but it was completely hidden, only in Li Mu's tweets. There is only one information entrance left, this easter egg is so creative..."

In fact, Li Mu didn't plan to reveal the x-on: function so early, but William readily agreed to be the first member of the royal family to use Twitter. Li Mu used Twitter's first x-on: on him, which was considered a courtesy.

However, he did not expect that because of his x-on:, he would guide William to more than 3 million fans in one night.

...

When Yanjing time arrived at 9:00 am, the traffic of Titter (microblogging) in Huaxia began to increase sharply.

A large number of stars and celebrities in China have already tasted the huge dividends brought to them by the Internet, so they all began to join Weibo at this time.

The entire Makino Imaging's contracted artist team and the behind-the-scenes work team started to post a large number of Weibo from early in the morning, and they gained countless fans early in the morning.

At this stage, "Crazy Stone" has become popular in the entire Chinese society after breaking through one billion yuan at the box office, and the social attention is extremely high, so the staff of Makino Imaging applied for "Crazy Stone" official Weibo account, and After walking through the back door to quickly complete the certification, this account began to continuously release a large number of "Crazy Stone" stills and behind-the-scenes photos.

In ten or twenty minutes, the official Weibo account posted more than 30 Weibo posts, with an average of 1.5 posts per minute.

For example, this one is a photo of Liu Dehua eating a boxed lunch at the scene, with a simple sentence: "Liu Tianwang also eats the same working meal as everyone in the crew!"

Immediately after that, the second article was a photo of Huang Bo chatting with Tang Wei on the set, with the caption: "Hei Pi is talking to eldest brother's girlfriend..."

A large amount of content is constantly being created, published, browsed and forwarded, which makes the traditional media realize an essence that shocks them: Weibo, in fact, is a medium. In some respects, it even surpasses print media and TV. media and online media.

Liu Dehua also personally registered on Weibo to respond. Actors such as Huang Bo and Tang Wei also opened their own Weibo, and while forwarding the Weibo of other members of the crew, they posted some interesting stories about their experiences during filming.

As a result, almost other celebrities followed suit and began to create a large number of Weibo posts, and the entire Internet was boiling.

The situation of overseas Twitter is exactly the same as that in China. A large number of celebrities and celebrities are constantly creating new tweets on Twitter. Ordinary users want to know the current situation of celebrities, either by watching news or watching TV shows. Other than that, there is basically no What other channels, but everything is different now, the star is directly under the public eye, constantly creating his own original content with high enthusiasm, which makes the fans of the star feel so close to their idols for the first time .

And these tweets, co-created by a large number of users, are themselves a huge complement to the scarcity of content on the Internet today.

Before the launch of Titter, there was not much content on the Internet for users to browse. At most, everyone looked at portal websites every day, as well as some vertical websites that were just starting. The key point is that there are not enough portal websites and vertical websites. There aren't enough content workers either, so the amount of good content available to read across the Internet is very thin.

However, everything is different these days. Titter has mobilized every netizen in the world, made them a content creator, and created a large amount of short content for the Titter database, although most of this content is very Short and concise ultra-short content, but this makes users feel that reading these ultra-short content is easier and more interesting.

This is just like the successful principle of short video platforms like Kuaishou and Douyin. There are only lengthy video content on the Internet, even if it is just the MV of a song, it will be at least three minutes, and an episode of a TV series or a movie will be longer. Now, at this time, using the successful model of micro-blog, we can deduce the success prospect of micro-video.

The 15-second video is no different from Titter, which has 130 Chinese characters and 300 bytes. It's just the same model, but in a new format.

...

Li Mu slept very soundly this night. Although the entire Internet was reshuffled by him using Titter, and the entire Internet industry was taught by him to be a human being, as a party, he was thinking about the plan to acquire a football club.

That night, Li Mu had a dream that he played a live-action version of Football Manager in the UK.

He spent a lot of money to buy a club, and invested a lot of money to introduce a large number of seed players in world football for the next ten years, and then invited the best football coach in the world. Huaxia Football has cultivated several outstanding players who are qualified to be the Asian Footballer of the Year.

These outstanding players joined the Huaxia national team. With their excellent skills and long-term cooperation, they led the national team to win the Asian Cup and also won the 2010 World Cup finals. Huaxia Football entered the World Cup for the second time. Final round.

As the saying goes, if you think about it every day, you will have a dream at night, and if you keep thinking about it, there will be an echo.

Li Mu just woke up the next morning, and before he finished washing up and went to the banquet hall for breakfast, Davidson came to the door and knocked on Li Mu's door. The first thing he said was: "Mr. Li, I helped you yesterday. I inquired about it, and there is indeed a Premier League club that is interested in making a move."

"Oh?" Li Mu didn't expect that he really wanted something, and hurriedly asked, "Which club is it?"

Davidson said: "Manchester City is in the same city as Manchester United, which the Macmillan family invested in."
