Chapter 835 Information Overload of Bipolar Reversal
It was such a sudden illness that he encountered a slow doctor. Gao Jian wanted to kick him in the face. He held back his anger and asked, "Is there something wrong with the software?"
He prides himself on having a good temper, but in this situation he has the urge to beat people up.
The three leaders with the prefix Guo refrained from urging them. After all, they were not their subordinates, but their expressions betrayed their anxious inner world.
On the contrary, Yao Yuan was looking at the screen with his arms folded, as if he was analyzing the code in the information box, looking very focused.
Zhang Yishan seemed not to hear Gao Jian's urging, staring at the code in the information box and muttering to himself, "That's weird, it shouldn't be..."
Yao Yuan also had a similar expression.
Everyone was puzzled. They couldn't understand these codes that looked like ghost drawings.
Zhang Yishan said to himself again, "It's very strange. This situation shouldn't happen. You guys, what you sell are financial products. We have done calculations and found that the amount of redundant running memory space reserved by the IBM software purchased is very large."
big……"
Gao Jian stopped urging because he found that Yao Yuan also looked thoughtful.
At this time, Yao Yuan suddenly smiled and said, "You can confirm that there is no problem with the software system itself, right?"
"It's basically OK. You see, these basic data are correct and match the design values given by IBM." Zhang Yishan seemed to be discussing technical issues with his colleagues, pointing to the information box and saying.
Everyone looked at each other in confusion. If there was no problem with the software system, then there was only one possibility. There was a problem with the product design. Specifically, the interest rate was too low and no one was interested in Oriental 5.
The product manager felt his eyes darken and his body swayed. The delicate assistant beside him quickly supported him and looked at him with gentle eyes.
Director Lin, Deputy Director Zhuo, and Li Jinghan all had their faces as dark as water, and they all shook their heads slightly and sighed softly.
The failure of Oriental No. 5 is a foregone conclusion. After such a start, there will be no chance of recovery in the future. Interest rates need to be readjusted and a new round of publicity needs to be carried out. Maybe we need to find distributors and give away part of the profits.
…
The product manager who slowly came to his senses quickly thought of these remedial measures.
At this moment, everyone heard Zhang Yishan once again doubting himself and said, "It shouldn't be. The software system is malfunctioning. This shouldn't be the problem."
Gao Jian asked in a low voice, "What's the problem?"
At this time, Yao Yuan smiled and asked, "Why can't it be caused by severe information overload? Apart from this reason, is there any other explanation?"
Zhang Yishan couldn't help but turn around and said, "Mr. Yao, you are selling financial products. The data in a transaction record is not large. To cause such an overload, it is a very, very huge amount of data."
"All the US$100 million quota was sold in just a few seconds, or there were tens of thousands or even more than 100,000 visits in just a few seconds. The server could handle such visits, but the software system could not.
Is this possible?" Yao Yuan said confidently.
He seemed to be sure of something.
Zhang Yishan smiled and shook his head, "Although I am not a financial professional, I am somewhat familiar with financial management products. The quota of 100 million US dollars is almost 800 million Hong Kong dollars. It is impossible to sell out in a few seconds.
Your starting investment is US$1,000. To sell out the US$100 million quota, you need at least 100,000 accounts. How is it possible to have more than 100,000 visits? Impossible, so it cannot be caused by information overload. There must be more.
Other reasons."
Yao Yuan chuckled and said, "Whether it's information overload, you'll know clearly by adjusting the number of visits to the server."
Zhang Yishan looked at Yao Yuan dubiously, and immediately started to do it, because this was indeed the most direct and fastest way to prove it.
There was no result here, but suddenly a phone rang over there, startling everyone.
The product manager suddenly turned his head and saw that it was a long-distance phone number specifically used to contact the US sales area. He walked over in three steps, feeling heavy in his heart. He had already guessed what the regional product manager on the other end of the phone would say.
No one is paying attention to Oriental No. 5 Financial Management Fund, and everyone is in a panic. What should we do next? Is there any plan at the headquarters? What should we do...
That's all.
Later, product managers from other regions will definitely call to inquire, and the situation will be a mess.
The product manager answered the phone and said, "Where?"
"Mr. Jin, this is Stephen. What's going on at the headquarters? Why haven't we replenished the goods yet? Didn't we plan to ensure the supply? Everyone in the United States is worried to death..."
"What? Wait, wait, wait, restock?" The product manager suspected that he was hallucinating.
At this time, the situation on Zhang Yishan's side surfaced again. He looked at the access records and was shocked, "Oh my god, more than 100,000 visits in just ten seconds. It's no wonder that the software system can handle it. The server
I’m actually lucky to be able to endure it…”
Yao Yuan smiled and said to Director Lin, Deputy Director Zhuo, and Li Jinghan, "The three leaders have basically found out that within ten seconds of Dongfang 5 going online, all 100 million U.S. dollars were sold through electronic transactions.
quota, because the number of visits per unit time far exceeded the carrying capacity of IBM's software system, so downtime occurred."
As soon as he finished speaking, the product manager who answered the phone looked like he was going crazy and yelled at everyone: "It's selling like crazy! It's all sold out! Restock quickly! Restock quickly! Why are you standing like a piece of wood?"
!Restock!”
His eyes were red, as if he had defeated the enemy and was pursuing the victory. When he looked back, he saw that the reinforcements were not there!
He rushed over and punched and kicked one of his men in the ear, yelling to replenish supplies. The man suddenly came to life and rushed towards the work station like a rocket.
This subordinate's movements were like a starting gun, and the others were almost the same - a quick jerk, and then rushed to the work station.
Within a few seconds, the sound of shouting filled the entire office hall, and the team responsible for allocating quotas was simply surrounded. The team responsible for connecting with various regions felt that shouting from a distance was too inefficient, and it was easy for colleagues to get ahead of them, so they all had a tacit understanding.
You can directly come to the allocation team to ask for the quota.
The team responsible for quota allocation was suddenly under great pressure, but they enjoyed it and enjoyed a privileged position.
These changes in just one minute dazzled the three national leaders. They did not even react to accept the sudden changes.
At this time, they understood that there was a problem with the software system, but it did not mean that the Oriental 5 was not selling well. Instead, it was because the light-speed sales of the Oriental 5 caused the software system to be severely overloaded and malfunction...
