Rebirth: Starting with Capturing the Goddess Mentor

Chapter 359 Preparations Before Launch
For the next few days, Chen Yan spent almost all his time in the office of Moyin Technology, working with everyone to prepare for the internal testing.

A busy week passed quickly, and it was now October 15th.

At 9 a.m. that day, the Moyin app officially launched a large-scale internal testing campaign.

Anyone who has worked with social media platforms knows that there is a clear hierarchy of disdain among users.

That means male users are far less numerous than female users!
Although it may sound hurtful, it is indeed the truth.

On average, one female user can attract 20 male users among social media users.
A pretty female user (as long as the profile picture is pretty, the real person doesn't matter) can attract 100 boys.

You might not believe it when you hear this.

In fact, even in 2025, this proportion will remain high.

If you don't believe me, you can register a new Douyin account, find some pictures of beautiful women online, post them on Douyin (Kuaishou), and casually spend 100 yuan on Douyin bonuses. When you wake up the next day, check how many private messages you have in the background.
There's nothing I can do, there's really nothing I can do.

Although it's said online that the "simp economy" will collapse by 2025.

But it's not.

This group still exists, but it's only slightly smaller than before.

Therefore, Chen Yan's approach was similar to the activities he did when Douyin first started promoting it in his previous life.

Moyin Technology Company hired a large number of part-time workers (PS: these part-time workers were all found on [Daily Part-time Jobs], the largest part-time job platform in China) to go to major universities and subway entrances to do promotion.

There should definitely be a bonus for doing promotion.

Otherwise, who would download an unknown software for no reason these days?

Magic Sound Technology's reward policy is as follows:
This platform is currently undergoing a one-month internal testing phase. Once users shoot and upload videos to the platform, the platform will categorize the videos based on the number of likes received on November 15th.

The top 100 videos with the most likes are rated S-level.
The top 500 videos with the most likes are rated A-level videos;
The top 5000 videos with the most likes are rated B.

An S-level video will be rewarded with 10000 yuan, an A-level video with 2000 yuan, and a B-level video with 500 yuan.

The rewards will be automatically sent to the back-end wallet of the Moyin app, and you can withdraw them to WeChat or Alipay at your own discretion.

Moyin app encourages users to upload videos in categories such as talent, emotions, beauty, lifestyle, comedy, cute pets, and science. As long as the video content is legal and compliant, Moyin app will give the video different levels of traffic exposure based on its popularity.

University of Electronic Science and Technology of China, Hangzhou.

Zhang Ruonan had just returned from shooting an advertisement.

She is now quite well-known in Hangzhou's modeling circle. Because of her naturally innocent and youthful face, many owners of women's clothing stores that sell pure and innocent styles ask her to shoot advertisements.

That day, Zhang Ruonan was stunned by the sight before her as soon as she pushed open the dormitory door—

The three roommates were dancing wildly in front of the phone camera, humming along to the music: "Like a seaweed, seaweed, seaweed, swaying with the waves, seaweed, seaweed, seaweed, seaweed, dancing in the waves..."

She stood frozen at the doorway, nearly dropping her bag: "What... are you doing?"

My roommate Xiaomei, while swaying her hips, turned around and shouted with a grin, "Ruonan! Come dance with me! There's a promotion for the Magic Sound APP at the student activity center. Just film this 'Seaweed Dance' and upload it, and you can get a box of L'Oreal face masks!"

"Magic Voice App?"

Zhang Ruonan frowned. "Never heard of it."

"A new short video platform is currently in its beta testing phase, and there are tons of rewards!" My roommate Xiaolin paused the music and excitedly came over. "Look, you can get cash rewards for the most likes, up to 10,000 yuan!"

Zhang Ruonan took the phone, and a popular video was playing on the screen—a girl in a JK uniform was dancing the same "seaweed dance," which had already received over 5000 likes, and the comments section was full of "hahaha, so addictive," "this dance is addictive," and "the girl is so cute."

She scrolled down and found that the homepage recommendations were almost all similar dance challenges, as well as various talent shows, funny clips, and even cute pet videos.

"When did this event... come about?" she asked, somewhat surprised.

"It was just released this morning."

Xiao Mei proudly waved her phone, "I heard they spent a lot of money promoting it, and now a lot of people at school have downloaded it. Some people have even formed teams to make videos to climb the charts!"

Zhang Ruonan put down her phone thoughtfully.

As an advertising model, she is very sensitive to the commercial value of emerging platforms—if she can accumulate fans on this app in advance, she may be able to get more collaborations in the future.

"How about it? Want to film one together?" Xiaolin winked. "With your looks and camera presence, you could go viral just by jumping around!"

Zhang Ruonan smiled and looked up at her roommates: "Sure."

The roommates exchanged a glance and said in unison, "Then what are we waiting for? Let's start filming!"

The music started again, and the dormitory instantly transformed into a "seaweed dance" carnival.

At the same time, long queues formed at the student centers of major universities in Hangzhou.

The majority of the group were girls, though there were one or two boys mixed in.

After all, boys also need to take care of themselves!

The staff responsible for the review were already extremely busy.

They almost mechanically took the phones handed to them by the students, found the homepage ID, searched for it with their own accounts, and liked the videos they posted.

This is to prevent people from fraudulently claiming the money or claiming it multiple times.

Because liking a video is like marking it once. If someone uses the same ID to claim the reward a second time, the staff will notice: "Huh? This video has already been liked before?"
That means she has already received the reward once, so naturally she won't receive another reward.

If it's your first time picking it up, as long as the dance video meets the requirements, whether it's a finger dance, seaweed dance, or something else, the staff will take out a box of face masks from the large box behind them and hand it to you.

Of course, the face mask giveaway is limited to universities in Hangzhou; it has not yet been tested in other cities.

Since the software hasn't been launched yet, the most important task at present is to select enough high-quality videos to retain new users.

It's like if you download the Douyin app now and create a new account, it will recommend the most popular videos on the platform in the past two years, all of which have more than 100 million likes.

Then you'll think, "Wow, this video is really interesting (good)!"

Then, you naturally stayed and became a loyal user of Douyin.

But the Magic Voice app doesn't have it!
The Moyin app is currently just an empty shell; it doesn't have any good videos. If it were to be launched prematurely, it would result in extremely low user retention!

Therefore, the task during the internal testing period is, firstly, to see if there are any undiscovered bugs on the platform;

Secondly, it's to create initial ecosystem content for the platform, which will help retain users after the official launch.
