On April 20, at 9:30 am, more than 200 media reporters from all over the country gathered at the Beijing International Trade Hotel again.

A few months later, 51 Group held another large-scale press conference.

The theme of the press conference surprised the media reporters.

51 Group is actually going to enter the comprehensive news portal!

The name of this website is 51 Headlines!

The theme slogan of the press conference is: "51 Headlines, the fastest news network!"

You should know that the three strong teams in the news portal field, Xinglang, Yiwang and Sohu were completely finalized as early as 2000.

Later, Tencent relied on QQ user traffic, and only dared to enter this field with entertainment themes and founded Tencent.com.

In addition to the TOM News Network, which has low attention, there are already five major news portals in the country.

The strongest one is still Xinglang, and so many of the world's status has not changed.

The confused media reporters have also seen that since the birth of 51.com in 2003, none of the Internet projects launched by 51 Group have been unsuccessful, and they are all popular products.

Therefore, the reporters were also very curious about why 51 Headlines can make a way out in the world of portal news websites.

At 9:25, there were more than 300 people sitting in the conference hall of the Guomao Hotel and the press conference.

Gao Yang was dressed in formal attire and accompanied Ding Lei, Li Yan, Zou Hongwei, Liu Dong, Xu Xin, Lu Tao, Feng Jinsong and other guests into the venue. Fang Jian, He Guangwen, Gu Yawen and other senior executives of the 51 Group followed closely behind.

A group of photojournalists immediately pressed the shutter.

Ding Lei, Li Yan, Zou Hongwei and Liu Dong are all famous figures in the Internet circle and have close ties with 51 Group.

Xu Xin and her Today Venture Capital were already familiar with the media when they jointly acquired the 51 Defender desktop-level business with Qihu Technology.

Feng Jinsong, the boss of CPI Group, knows many reporters in the IT media circle, and everyone knows that Gao Yang once served as the vice president of CPI Group.

Only Lu Tao, the former chairman of Bayi Group and the current general manager of Luxshare Seiko, can remember only a few old reporters from IT media.

What media reporters still don’t know is that the registered capital of the project of 51 Headlines is 400 million yuan, of which 51 Group invested 300 million yuan, and the CPI Group represented by Ding Lei, Li Yan, Zou Hongwei, Liu Dong, Xu Xin, Lu Tao and Feng Jinsong invested a total of 100 million yuan.

In order to compete for the 100 million investment share, the seven people almost told Gao Yang that they were anxious a few days ago.

The internal test of 51 Headlines made these people realize that the situation of the portal news website will soon be broken due to the emergence of 51 Headlines.

51Toutiao.com is a catfish or a very ferocious catfish.

51 Group naturally has no shortage of 100 million. Gao Yang’s purpose is to take care of old friends and make the alliance partnership closer.

Gao Yang and others just sat in the front row of the venue, and the familiar BGM, "The Overture of the Little Knife Club" came out of the audio.

Many media reporters smiled knowingly. As soon as this BGM was released, they said that 51 Group was going to cause trouble again.

Sure enough, an accident happened. When the two hosts took the stage, many reporters from the audience immediately recognized it.

"Chen Weihong, the host of CCTV Finance's Dialogue!"

"That's the new actress of CCTV Finance Channel, Qin Fang!"

"Qin Fang is so beautiful, she is so tall..."

On the stage, Chen Weihong was wearing a dark blue suit, while Qin Fang was wearing a red dress. Qin Fang, wearing high heels, was two or three centimeters taller than Chen Weihong.

Chen Weihong took the lead in speaking: "Dear friends from the media industry, good morning, I am Chen Weihong, welcome to the press conference online on 51 Group 51 Headlines."

Qin Fang continued: "Hello everyone, I am Qin Fang."

Chen Weihong said: "Qin Fang, do you understand the Internet?"

Qin Fang smiled and said, "Let's know some. For example, 51 Group is a rookie of China Internet. Its rises very quickly. I am also a user of 51 Group, 51 Weibo, 51 talk, and 51.com. I have registered."

Chen Weihong asked again: "Do you know the current competitive landscape of domestic portal news websites?"

Qin Fang smiled and said, "I have done my homework. Currently, the portal news websites include Xinglang, sohu, and Yiwang.com. There are also a large number of regional news portals in provinces, cities and districts across the country.

Weihong, 51 Group officially launched 51 Headlines today, claiming to be the "fastest news network". Do you know how 51 Headlines can do the fastest?"

Chen Weihong smiled and said, "I heard that it relies on innovative Internet technology. I don't understand the specific ones, but there will be technical experts who will reveal the answers for us soon."

Qin Fang said: "Yes, let us invite Mr. Chen Hua, deputy director of 51 Group Research Institute and chief algorithm scientist, to reveal the answer to everyone..."

"The Overture of the Little Knife Club" BGM sounded again, and Chen Hua went on stage to start the lecture with a smile and confidence:

"Hello, friends from the media industry, 51 Headlines has officially launched the public beta at 9:30 this morning.

We officially started this project on September 19 last year. The total number of engineers in the project team lasted for more than 6 months. On March 30 this year, we invited 10,000 users to participate in the internal testing.

After 20 days of internal testing, most of the user feedback collected gave good reviews.

The most distinctive feature of 51 headlines is the word headline.

Headlines mean hot news, and also means the speed of news response.

There is a saying in the martial arts novel that everyone must be familiar with, "The martial arts of the world are only fast and fast," which comes from the Gu Long novel "Little Li Flying Knife".

51 Headlines are exactly the news website that "only fast is not broken". This kind of fastness is different from the manual editing of traditional news websites. We achieve it through algorithm technology.

The editing background of 51Toutiao is no longer a manual editing mode, but an automatic push of algorithm technology, and manual editing will become an auxiliary.

Through innovative search engine technology, with algorithms as the core, we recommend hot news and information published by media organizations, including self-media authors, to website users as soon as possible.

The results of the internal test show that the hot news on 51 Headlines is much faster than any news portal.

If the user registers on 51 Headlines, then after using 51 Headlines for a period of time, the website will remember your reading interests and push more hot news within your interest range..."

Chen Hua explained the technological innovation model of the portal news website. The media reporters in the audience, and only some IT media reporters roughly understood it.

Next, Zhang Yiming, deputy technical director of 51 Group and CEO of 51 Headlines, gave a speech on stage. When introducing 51 Headlines' operating model, he announced a news that shocked all the reporters at the audience:

“51 Headlines will pay for news creation.

Whether it is a media organization, a reporter himself, or a self-media author, as long as you register on 51Toutiao.com and have a 51pay account, and your news works are pushed by 51Toutiao, you can participate in the traffic sharing of the website's advertising revenue.

30% of our monthly advertising revenue will be used to share traffic and pay for original news works.

This is an attempt and effort by 51 Group to respect intellectual property rights.

If this attempt to do business model can be successful, in the next step, 51 Group will gradually promote it on platforms such as 51 Weibo, 51 Renren and 51 Fortune..."

The media reporters on the scene instantly applauded thunderously.

In the past, news reprinted on the portal news website was purely for nothing.

51 Headlines’ move is purely to set off the top spot as soon as it comes out, and to bring the entire industry into force.

51 Headlines is a ferocious catfish, which not only has innovation in technological applications, but also in business models.

The world of the portal news website is going to be in chaos...

At the scene, many reporters who brought laptops and were able to access the Internet immediately posted this explosive news on 51 Weibo.

At today's press conference, 51 Weibo arranged a live broadcast, and 51 Headlines will divide the advertising traffic for original news works quickly became a super topic and spread wildly.

Today, there is no more exciting hot news...
Chapter completed!
