Rebirth of the Internet: Starting from Games

Chapter 68 War without gunpowder

9:[-].

Chen Hao moved a chair and sat in the empty seat in the middle of the technical department. He looked at the server data on the row of monitors in front of him. All indicators were normal.

The hands-free phone next to it is directly connected to the computer room for easy communication and command.

Everything that needs to be prepared has been prepared to the best of our ability.

Everything that needed to be explained was done yesterday.

The bosses of each department are responsible for their own affairs and do their own thing.

It's just like an exam. If you study hard, you won't have anything to do when the exam comes.

Chen Hao felt that the time was a little long, and he was a little idle, looking around.

Seeing Lu Tao constantly clasping his fingers and Lin Xiaoran's chest rising and falling, Chen Hao smiled and said, "Let's see if you two can be successful."

Lu Tao smiled bitterly and said, "It's easy for you, boss. This is the company's first big project. It's so big that my legs are shaking right now."

Lin Xiaoran was so nervous that her movements were a little stiff, "My heart is pounding now. Why aren't you nervous, boss?"

"Why don't you be nervous? I'm almost nervous to death, but what's the use of being nervous? If you want to achieve something in the future, just remember: Those who have thunder in their chests and a face as flat as a lake can become a general!"

This sentence made Lu Tao a little excited, and Lin Xiaoran quickly took out a small notebook and wrote it down.

At 9:45, Chen Hao entered the command on the laptop in front of him and was just short of pressing Enter. He watched the hands of the watch on his wrist move bit by bit.

Tick, tick.

9:50, the auspicious time has arrived!

Then let’s see how many points you can get in this exam.

Chen Hao raised his hand and dropped his key!

Miracle open beta begins!

A certain QQ group,

"Damn it, Shi Zong doesn't care about martial arts, but he actually launched a sneak attack. I opened it. The brothers in the group followed me to kill. The target is one zone and one server: Thunder God's Sword."

"Damn, I still have 3 minutes to get to the Internet cafe. Wait for me."

"Everyone, remember the family name. The prefix should be Zhantian XX. Don't give it the wrong name."

"Brother who goes to the Internet cafe, pray for a miracle in your Internet cafe. I borrowed the CD-ROM drive from the network administrator to install the miracle. It took me half an hour, and my half-hour of Internet fees were wasted."

Miracle official forum,

A post appeared: "I like Shi Zong's unpunctuality, understand the applause [applause]"

"There is no more below LZ."

"Half of words, arsenic mixed with rice!"

"Family, who knows?"

"[Applause][Laugh]"

"I'm not an expert in this area, but I still want to express my opinion. After I read the title carefully and thought about it for a long time, I actually don't know how to answer it. As I said at the beginning, I'm not Experts in this field.”

"Damn it, one word from you is worth more than one word."

"You put this here and this here."

"Are some of the people upstairs suffering from some serious illness?"

"Is the server open? I'm going. See you all in Miracle!"

"[Applause]+66."

"Open p, why can't I get in~"

"Fuck, I'm in, it's really open. Everyone, hurry up while the monster's body is still warm."

There were various comments, and within a few minutes, the post became a hot topic on the forum, reaching hundreds of pages.

All Miracle players who have a smart mind have already begun to explore the Miracle game to seize the opportunity and be one step ahead of others, while most players who abide by the rules are still waiting hard for the arrival of 10 o'clock.

It is very similar to the current situation in society. Some people who dare to fight and work hard and are smart have their pockets bulging.

<divclass="contentadv">The gods make changes!

After a while, the exception disappeared and Chen Hao relaxed. In fact, his intention to start the server 10 minutes earlier was very simple. He just wanted to avoid network congestion caused by high concurrency when opening the server.

In this way, some people can come in first, which can alleviate some of the pressure on the server and bandwidth after the server is launched.

Just like the queuing channel with twists and turns in front of the Tiantongyuan subway gate, it mainly focuses on delayed congestion.

But even so, when Chen Hao pressed the button, it was like opening Pandora's box.

I saw that the numbers in the statistics screen had changed.

At 9:51, the number of people online at the same time exceeded one thousand.

By 9:59, the number of people online at the same time had exceeded [-].

And at 10 o'clock, the statistics page suddenly froze for a while, and then recovered after a few seconds. The number of people online at the same time tripled instantly, and it continued to increase rapidly.

Lin Lang leads the hardware engineers and is also keeping an eye on the load of the server.

Starting at 9:50, the server load trend graph is slowly and steadily increasing.

When it reached 10 o'clock, a straight line suddenly rose to the sky, suddenly rising a little.

The load status indicator light changes from green to yellow.

By 10:15, the indicator light of some District 1 servers turned red, and the load trend was approaching the threshold.

Previously, considering that server 1 in each region would be more popular than other servers, Lin Lang made corresponding adjustments. Currently, the number of servers in server 1 is twice that of other servers.

Even so, the 1st server in each major region only lasted for 15 minutes and still could not withstand such a large flow of traffic.

Lin Lang reported back to the headquarters, "Mr. Chen, start the current limiting plan! If this continues, the server will trigger the circuit breaker mechanism (a forced shutdown to protect the server hardware) in less than half an hour. I am preparing to expand the server capacity."

As the company's vice president, Lin Lang has absolute say in hardware.

He calculated it, then turned around and issued instructions in an orderly manner to his subordinate engineers: "Start the implementation according to the third item of contingency plan B. The expansion quantity is as follows: add 1 servers to server 2 in each district, and add 1 server to each other server. Limited time 20 minutes! Let’s get started!”

The order was issued, and all the hardware engineers on standby in the computer room began to get busy.

When choosing Miracle Server 1, players found that the screen would occasionally freeze.It was a monster that was supposed to die after just 5 cuts. After more than a dozen cuts, it suddenly died, and then it dropped items and took a long time to pop out.

He was so angry that he scolded his mother, what a garbage server!

The most intuitive manifestation is that the phone number in the customer service area of ​​Century Zongheng was directly called by players and kept ringing.

There was a lot of slander and abuse on the forum.

Zhou Xiao has become the busiest person in the company.

While leading the customer service staff, he explained and comforted according to the words in the previous plan, enduring the overwhelming grievances of the players.

On the other side, the command and operations staff provide comfort and explanations on the forum. If they find suspicious people who are arrogant, they will directly delete the posts and ban them.

It's not that Chen Hao was unprepared, but he underestimated the players' enthusiasm for the game after Blue Speed.

You must know that what he purchased is a relatively high-end blade server on the market, and one unit only costs [-] yuan.

As a result, I couldn't even hold on for half an hour.

No need for brother to remind him, he also knows the seriousness of the situation.

"Lu Tao, server 1 in each district has started to limit the flow."

Seeing Chen Hao nodding, Lu Tao's fingers danced on the keyboard, setting parameters. After dozens of seconds,

"Server 1 queuing mechanism has been activated."

After approval, Zhou Xiao issued an announcement on the official website and forum simultaneously, informing players that due to excessive enthusiasm of players, the number of people in server 1 in each district has been saturated. Players are also asked to choose other servers to play the game. We are currently urgently adding servers, which has caused We apologize for the inconvenience.

With the concerted efforts of several parties, the situation was finally temporarily stabilized.

Later, new players who chose server 1 found that the current server was full.

The current queue number is 1573 and the estimated queue time is 47 minutes.

I was dumbfounded, rubbish, who waited for 47 minutes!

Except for those members of the family and the Kryptonians who wanted to compete for hegemony and continued to wait, most other people chose to cancel and choose other servers. Fortunately, there was no queue for other servers.

Among them, some players who have played Blue Moon said that they have seen this scene before.

Memories of painful queues in the past came back to me unconsciously.
