Tokyo life starting with painting.

Chapter 346: Guard Against Death! Don’t Give A Chance! (4100 words)
The pixiv website, in a slightly formulaic way, is actually a website centered on illustrations, manga, novels, and art.

In a slightly ordinary way, this website is actually a place for some painting lovers to publish their works.

Presumably everyone has more or less painting enthusiasts from childhood to adulthood. They may not be professional comic writers, but they like painting very much.

The website pixiv is a place for these painting lovers to display their talents.

They can publish their works on the pixiv page and be seen by other painting lovers
Similarly, the pixiv web page also has a ranking function, whether it is R15, R18, or ordinary works, the ranking of your work is determined according to the number of likes on the page.

In other words, this is actually a platform for painting lovers to share and communicate.

Some people may think that these functions are very simple, and some functions are rotten things in 2020.
But in fact, in Higashinoji's previous life, the number of users of the pixiv website exceeded 20 just 10000 days after its trial operation.

Ten days later, due to the excessive increase in the number of users, pixiv, which was originally in trial operation, could only increase the server capacity, and transferred the beta version of pixiv to the company's server to run.

You should know that this is just a trial operation, the pixiv web design is not mature at all, it is just a prototype, and it has already achieved such results
In 2010, the official members of the pixiv website exceeded the 200 million mark, and about [-] original illustrations and animation fan works were published on the website every day.Painting lovers from all over the world will post their own works on this website, and even the authors of the manga books that many people like to read basically have personal accounts on pixiv (hereinafter referred to as P station).

The murder of this website has a great influence and is well known by many painting lovers.

Going further, by 2020, the market value of Station P has been rising all the way, and the market valuation is about 2000 million US dollars.

Now, the era in which Higashino is in is 2005.

Not only in Japan, but even the world's major painting exchange websites have not yet started.

Not to mention the ranking message mechanism, even the basic prototype of the website has not yet been formed.

The complete pixiv website established by Higashino Tsukasa can be said to be the best in this era. It is absolutely no problem to draw a sword and start killing randomly.

Aside from other things, even if Higashinoji only operates this website, it will be no problem to earn more than 100 billion yen a year.

But Higashinoji doesn't think much about the money value of Station P.
For him, the most important thing is the potential painting talents cultivated by Station P.

Yes.

With the communication platform of Station P, all kinds of people will definitely contribute to it.

Dongye Studio, which is the main operator of the website, can directly contact these talents through the P station!This is Tonoji's purpose.

If there is a good artist, just invite him to be his online comic reading platform. If it doesn't work, invite him to be the original artist of Dongye Studio, or even be an illustrator!

As long as there is a P station, Higashino Division does not have to worry too much about the lack of high-quality creators like Iwazuki Publishing House or Fushima Publishing House.

This complementary mode of operation is what Higashino is ultimately pursuing.

200 billion yen. That is nothing to Higashino Division now.

So Yano Ryuichi looked puzzled next to him, and when he didn't quite understand the use of this P station, Higashino also shook his head.

As a person of this era, it is normal for the other party not to understand the role of the P station.

For example, a person from the future in 2005 traveled to the first half of the [-]th century, and then loudly told everyone that mobile phones in the future will be reduced to the size of a palm, and digital cameras can instantly image images, and people will also treat you as a lunatic.

This is the so-called human vision will restrict their imagination.

"Yano-san, don't worry, this illustration exchange website will work." Higashino Division smiled and replied Yano Ryuichi beside him.

"Really?" Yano Ryuichi still half-knowledge.

In his opinion, this P station is completely incomparable with another web comic reading website that Higashinoji wants to build.

At least the latter can also create benefits, while the latter simply increases the operational burden. After all, maintaining a website also costs money.

However, considering that Higashino's ideas have always been unconstrained, Yano Ryuichi did not comment too much on this.

He just turned his head thinking and said, "By the way, Mr. Dongye, the other function you asked me to do has actually been completed. Look here."

As Yano Ryuichi said, he opened the settings of the website, and directly changed all the Japanese on the P station to Chinese.

"According to your request, Mr. Higashino, I asked the web designer to convert three languages, Chinese, Japanese and English."

When he said this, Yano Ryuichi had a weird facial expression.

Is it possible that Higashino Division still wants to push Station P to the Celestial Dynasty?

This is too whimsical, right?

He, Yano Ryuichi, felt that this website could not even be handled by the people of his own country, let alone the Celestial Dynasty.

even english
Is Higashinoji planning to develop globally?This is just an ordinary website.Even from the perspective of Yano Ryuichi's perennial painting supervisor, there is nothing outstanding about this plain sky blue page design.

In addition to the relatively new point of becoming a fan and liking the leaderboard rankings.
Yano Ryuichi really couldn't see any bright spots.

Can this thing really attract others to contribute?
As for the Celestial Dynasty, and even the world's Higashino Division, do you understand the ecology there?

Just thinking about it is unlikely, right?

Is it possible that their Dongye studio will have illustrators or manga authors from China to join in the future?

"Yano-san, trust me." Higashino clearly saw Yano Ryuichi's thoughts, and said cheerfully: "Not only the P station will add Chinese conversion system settings, but also the online comic reading platform that is still under construction. To add a mechanism to convert Chinese."

Today's Japanese friends obviously still don't understand the Chinese market.

In particular, the comic market in China is completely blank.

Now in 2005, the manga market on the Tianchao side is estimated to rely on the Chinese translation of several domestic publishing houses to make a living on the Japanese side.
At this time, the online comic reading platform launched by Higashino does not need to be translated at all, as long as you click a button, you can directly see his works that have been finished in Chinese
This will undoubtedly have an impact on the comic market of China.

"Okay. I understand." Listening to Higashinoji's words, Yano Ryuichi couldn't help touching his half-bald head, his expression looked a little confused.

He didn't quite understand why Dong Yesi was so fond of Tianchao, but the other party was his boss, so of course he had to obey the other party's request.

Higashino did not explain too much.

After all, it is useless for you to explain the insights of 2020 to a person in 2005, and to talk to him about the realization of network traffic.

Just let him do it right.

Higashino went back and forth to check the Chinese and English conversion mechanism of Station P, without any slack.

After all, China is still very particular about some keywords and sensitive words.
Especially the illustration area and manga area of ​​R18.
Higashino Division is even thinking about whether to open it to the Celestial Dynasty.

After all, this thing is too sensitive, even if the P station is a webpage registered in Japan, it still feels a bit inappropriate to encounter this line.
"Let's be open."

Higashino frowned and muttered to himself.

It is enough to set the following relevant users to automatically filter out R18 entries.

But to be honest, Dong Yesi thinks that even if this thing is set up, the almighty Chinese netizens will probably come up with various means to squeeze into the R18 area in the end.
Not only men, but also women. For example, rotten girls and the like.

"That doesn't make them successful."

Tonoji muttered to himself.

Because the time goes further back, the Chinese government will introduce network and local area network countermeasures, and the Chinese government is directly blocked by a firewall, and many foreign websites cannot be logged in and browsed.
If Dongyesi's P station doesn't handle R18 well, it will be difficult for him to discuss this matter with the person in charge of Tianchao in the future.

Thinking of this, Higashino looked sideways at Yano Ryuichi: "Yano-san, has the function of 'automatically filtering R18 entries for the following users' in the Chinese conversion system I explained has been completed?"

"Well, it has been completed. Generally speaking, the following Chinese users cannot browse R18 content."

Yano Ryuichi patted his chest confidently and said, "This is a filtering system developed by our famous Japanese network designer. I don't think there will be any problems."

"." Higashino Division.

Do you think there will be no problem?
I feel that you are underestimating some old perverted netizens of the Celestial Dynasty.
Higashinoji shook his head, raised his eyebrows again and said in thought:

"Let's check for omissions and make up for the vacancies, and try not to leave any opportunities for them to see the content of R18. By the way, a three-person team will be established to focus on some Tianchao users who may turn in to view the content of R18. "

"????" Yano Ryuichi couldn't help but widen his eyes when he heard what Higashinoji said.

Wait a minute.
Not only does the web designer have to look at the problem of the filtering system, but also set up a special team?To pay attention to some Chinese users who may watch R18 content?
Does it work?
So what if they saw it?Isn't it just one or two pictures showing the rabbit's butt?It's okay to look at a picture or two, right?Is it necessary to be so strictly guarded against death, leaving no way for them to survive?

Yano Ryuichi really doubted life.

Dong Yesi's behavior is like pushing people into the pit, it's not enough, but also pouring cement into it, it really doesn't leave a way for people to survive.

He calculated the possible expenses in his heart, and couldn't help but said: "Mr. Dongye doesn't have to do this, right? Isn't it just a few pictures? I have an older sister, and her ten-year-old son sometimes looks at these things. What does it matter?"

Yano Ryuichi added: "They're all men, so it's normal to have needs, right? I think it's enough to have a function to filter entries, so there's no need for this. Uh, don't leave a way for them, right?"

"Yano-san, you don't understand the national conditions of the Celestial Dynasty." Dong Yesi shook his head.

He also came here when he was a student of the Celestial Dynasty, so he naturally knew that the Celestial Dynasty had very strict controls on adults, and he couldn't even show his neck when he was writing a novel.

Where would it be like my Japanese friends?The custom industry is a legal industry.

You go to the Celestial Dynasty to start a custom business and try it out?

I'll invite you in for tea in a few minutes.

Therefore, although I feel very sorry for some of the netizens from the Celestial Dynasty, Higashino can only make up his mind to maximize the countermeasures for adults.

He didn't believe that, with manual monitoring and webpage system filtering, Chinese netizens could still scroll through and view the content of R18.

On the other side, Yano Ryuichi was also puzzled when he heard Higashinoji's words, "You don't understand the national conditions of the Celestial Dynasty."

I don't understand the national conditions of the Celestial Dynasty?

The problem is that if I don’t understand it, it doesn’t mean that Mr. Higashino understands it, right?Could it be that you still lived in the Celestial Dynasty?
Seemingly feeling Yano Ryuichi's mood, Higashinoji didn't say anything, just coughed and said with a smile: "Anyway, let's follow this standard. How much money is needed can be raised from the studio's finance department. No problem, right?" Yano-san?"

"That's not a problem." Yano Ryu saw that he couldn't change Higashino Division's decision, so he could only nod and asked the next question: "So when will Higashino-sensei P station start the specific trial operation?"

The so-called trial operation actually means that the webpage is first launched and tested for user experience, and bugs and system errors are eliminated in the process. After the trial operation is over, it will be officially operated.

As for large-scale illustration exchange websites like Station P, the general trial operation time varies from 20 days to a month.

However, this trial operation process must be very boring.

After all, everything starts from scratch.

Maybe there will not be a single user increase at Station P by then?

Hearing Yano Ryuichi's question, Higashinoji also thought for a while, and then said: "Let's talk about it after the New Year's Day period has passed."

After he finished speaking, he smiled and patted the other party's shoulder: "Yano-san, don't just focus on work, spend more time with your family."

"Teacher Higashino" Yano Ryu opened his mouth.

He wanted to ask Higashino Division if this meant that he wanted him to work harder.

But before he could speak, Higashinoji added: "I'm telling the truth."

He was afraid that Yano Ryuichi would not be able to live well after the new year, and he would come over to work overtime by himself.

Yano Ryuichi listened to Higashino Division's repeated emphasis.

He hesitated for a while, and finally nodded: "Okay, I understand. Let's talk about the trial operation after the New Year's Day."

After saying this, Yano Ryuichi seemed to remember something in a trance.

Wait a minute.
Didn't he just want to be a bastard when he joined Dongye Studio?

How did it get to this point? On the contrary, he is now the hardest working person in the studio?
All hair fell out.

Yano Ryuichi was inexplicably suspicious of life, and didn't know why he became like this.

And on the other side.

Higashino Division did not forget to add: "By the way, Yano-san, you should also pay a little attention to the editor-in-chief of Seo. It is estimated that the results will be released after the New Year's Eve."

Yes.

Seo Editor-in-Chief Higashinoji of Iwazuki Publishing House estimated that news of his resignation would appear after the New Year's Eve.

This has to be taken.
