Social Media

Chapter 8: Social Media

Had it been a long time since she thought about raising a cat? Suddenly, some childhood memories flooded Mayu's mind.

When she was seven years old, she passed by a pet store and saw a kitten at the door.

"Mom, I want Kitty..." "Mom, I want it!"

The memory was very blurry. It seemed that she liked it very much, and then she told her mother that she wanted to get a cat. In the end, her mother did not buy it for her. She seemed to have cried at the time, but because she was too young, Mayu forgot about it.

But... that happened nine years ago. How could her brother know about what happened at that time? He wasn't there at the time. Could it be that their mother told him?

In the next few days, Yukio went to the world of "Tom and Jerry" to play with Tom and then brought him some dried fish or meat, such as roasted chicken and duck. Yukio was eating more meals every day in the fantasy world, even eating less than usual.

His mother also asked him if there was something wrong with his health.

However, the harvest in these few days had been great because all the exchanges between Yukio and Tom were recorded by the system, and a total of twelve episodes of short animation were completed, with each episode lasting seven to eight minutes.

As long as the animation was played, the system's task was completed. What puzzled Yukio was that it seemed that the system's task was very simple. Was it just like traditional games, giving some simple tasks at the beginning and then increasing the difficulty step by step?

Of course, these were just speculations. Under Yukio's guidance, Tom had slowly begun to get used to Yukio's existence. It was estimated that if he added to the fire, Tom would probably have his own surname.

After finishing his favorability score for another day, Yukio returned to his bedroom.

he looked at the complete set of "Tom and Jerry" on the computer, as well as the twelve new episodes of "Yukio and Tom" fan animation, and fell into deep thought.

For him, this animation was definitely something that could make a lot of money. After all, a well-made animation costs tens of millions. If it succeeded, the rewards would be absolutely huge, plus he had a system. The task was to play this fan animation.

However, Yukio didn't intend to hand over "Tom and Jerry" to his dad. Firstly, his dad seemed to be making a new animation, and secondly, because some things didn't make sense, such as where the animation "Tom and Jerry" came from and which animation company produced it. This kind of thing couldn't be explained at all.

But if he let himself come, it would still be a bit troublesome. Fortunately, he was not like an ordinary reincarnator who started from scratch, so it was a little convenient.

As a student who usually liked surfing the Internet, Yukio had long noticed that there were no social media websites in the world. Thinking of the rise of YouTube in his previous life, Yukio naturally wouldn't let this opportunity pass by.

Yukio had the idea of creating a social media website a long time ago, but the idea was just an idea. It was too troublesome to actually operate it, and he was not a expert.

When it came to running it, failure was only a matter of time. Yukio was quite realistic and didn't overestimate himself.

But Yukio did not completely forget about this matter. Instead, a few years ago, after his elder sister Mayu went to college, he told his sister about the plan for the social media website.

Yukio and his sister Mayu grew up together. Mayu was four years older than Yukio. The relationship between the two could be said to be truly close. They were definitely the closest siblings.

When Yukio was in elementary school, three junior high school boys teased Mayu. Yukio took advantage of it and went to fight those boys with sticks. However, the fighting ability of elementary school students and junior high school students was one level lower, and Yukio was beaten in the end. After a beating, his nose was bruised and face was swollen, making Mayu cry for a long time.

But Mayu also realized why Yukio had to do it. After that, Yukio spent all his pocket money to find seven or eight high school students older than them and thoroughly 'educated' them. After that, no one in the school dared to provoke Mayu.

From then on, Mayu also liked his younger brother more. She watched anime with Yukio, played games with him, accompanied him to buy the latest games in the early morning, and, more importantly, learned to cook when their parents were not at home.

Cooking for themselves ended the takeout era for the two of them.

Their relationship was so good. Given this opportunity, Yukio would naturally not forget his sister. Mayu was a top student at a prestigious university and was definitely not weak in ability, so Yukio directly set up the social media website a few years ago. he told his sister about the matter and also talked about the future of the website.

Mayu had a good eye for things. His younger sister was very optimistic about the prospects of the social media, and she had a well-organized explanation of how to develop the website, how to develop users, and how to make money. Mayu was also very excited, but the social media had not passed the test of the market, which meant that if they were not careful, they would lose all their money.

However, entrepreneurship itself had risks. What was missing was opportunity. Mayu had the idea of starting a business before and was not afraid of failure. The two hit it off and immediately started planning to build the world's social media.

Although the father of the family had been losing money doing animation, Yukio's grandfather was a coal boss who owned a mine in their hometown. He usually had no other hobbies. He just liked investing and was very rich.

Otherwise, Yukio wouldn't be stupid enough to invest in the animation produced by his father. It kept losing money and investing. Maybe his father would return to his hometown to inherit the family property if his animation career continued to fail. It was really scary.

At that time, Yukio and Mayu wrote a detailed plan, went to their grandfather to get an investment, opened a small company, and started a Social Media website.

In order to build this website, Yukio put forward a lot of suggestions, and even wrote down all the things he remembered from her previous life at Station B, such as answering questions to become a formal member, developing original content, and also mentioned the pitfalls that Station A encountered at the beginning. he didn't want her sister to fall into those traps.

Then the website was launched. With Yukio, a dog-headed military advisor, making suggestions, the website went surprisingly smoothly.

After the website was on the right track, Yukio became a hands-off shopkeeper, relying entirely on his elder sister to perform. Fortunately, Mayu was able to withstand it, and the social media website was running well.

The name of the website was chosen by Yukio. The name was just a symbol. Yukio picked one at random. Because of the bad taste, Yukio named the website 'shutter.com'. Although it was a bit strange, people got used to it. It wasn't too bad.

Now the website had been developed for more than a year. It happened to be the platform for "Tom and Jerry". Yukio used his computer to open the shutter website, referred to as 'Cute Station'. However, after opening it, the corners of Yukio's mouth twitched.

The development of 'Cute Station' was actually smooth sailing, but the direction of development was somewhat different from what Yukio had in mind.
