Chapter 346: 0346 The traffic is too heavy, the website crashed_1

The program was scheduled to officially start broadcasting at 8:00 a.m., and due to it being Ellen Young’s first live broadcast since her identity reveal, the program team was paying extra attention to the number of online viewers.

This was the most direct way to tell.

If they set a record, the program team would make a fortune.

It was still early, and the cameras had started working, but the live broadcast had not yet begun on the Internet.

After making a simple breakfast, Lucy Wood took out Flora’s violin as usual and began to play. Her skill had improved since the last time, and she played quite proficiently, clearly having practiced in private.

Feeling rather proud of her progress, Lucy Wood asked for praise, "How about that, much better than last time, right?"

Ellen Young said, "Last time you hit eight wrong notes, this time only two, so it’s a big improvement."

Lucy Wood: "..."

What kind of devil are you?

Did she play it wrong?

Why didn’t she realize it herself?

Right at 8:00 a.m., the live broadcast officially started!

As soon as the live broadcast room was announced open, a huge crowd poured in instantly.

Compared to the initial broadcasts and the last one, Ellen Young’s live broadcast room reached a peak right from the start.

The moment several millions of people tried to crowd in at once, the entire website crashed.

Due to the excessive influx of traffic all at once, even though they had made preparations, the website’s servers couldn’t withstand the sudden surge, displaying messages like "The webpage you’re looking at is slacking off," which left the netizens eager to see the live broadcast in a frenzy.

They couldn’t send a barrage, but they could still leave comments.

[What’s going on, why can’t I watch the live broadcast?]

[Damn, don’t tell me Ellen Young isn’t participating in this issue?]

[Fuck, my parents told me to come and learn from the immortal, and at the key moment, why is your website not up to the task!]

[So crowded, so anxious, I just want to see Scholar Young now, can your website handle this or not, if not, change the platform, okay?]

[What a crappy web, does it live up to Scholar’s live broadcast?]

...

"Family Time" was broadcast on the TV program’s own online platform.

Named Praga TV, it normally had considerable traffic, and had somewhat improved its server capacity through two broadcasts, but it was still not as responsive as the bigger websites, and the programmers were working urgently to fix it, feeling very anxious.

Even though the traffic flooding the backend had already created a terrifying historical record, it was still a huge loss since people couldn’t watch the live broadcast.

For the first ten minutes, the website was completely inaccessible, and even started trending on Twitter.

Ellen Young and Lucy Wood were unaware that the Internet was having problems due to the high traffic volume. Lucy Wood thought the live broadcast had already started and was pretending to read the sheet music. She had only managed to play a few notes when she heard Felicia Frost’s voice in her headset, "The website has crashed, your live broadcast hasn’t started yet."

Lucy Wood: "..."

Hearing that it hadn’t started, she casually responded into the headset, "What’s going on?"

Felicia Frost chuckled, "The traffic is too heavy, the website has crashed."

Lucy Wood was somewhat shocked, "How heavy could it be? The last two times, weren’t tens of millions of views handled just fine?"

"It’s different this time. The last two times part of the traffic was bought by Naya York, the actual number of viewers wasn’t that high, plus the website was prepared, so it could handle it. But this time, nearly thirty million people surged in all at once early in the morning; no live broadcast website could stand that."

Lucy Wood: "..."

She had thought that Ellen Young’s live broadcast after revealing her identity would be terrifying, but she hadn’t expected the numbers to be so scary.
