-I’m thinking of creating a new streaming platform. What do you think?
‘Streaming platform? ‘Why is that happening all of a sudden?’
I’m already using it, so is there any need to change it? I had a thought.
-They attacked from that side first.
‘attack?’
Maria explained the situation to me as I tilted my head. The story is that one of Twatch’s major streamers joined hands with a Twatch Korea manager and tried to suspend Twatch streamers belonging to our MCN. And in the process, the Viewbot terrorist attack was carried out and Maria dealt with it.
‘It’s a viewbot… ‘
I have also heard rumors about Viewbot.
It is said to be a method used by some streamers who want to make it appear that the number of viewers is larger than it actually is. But I also know that it’s not such a good idea.
If you think about it a little, you can see that viewbots are basically an act of increasing the number of viewers by spending money, so the larger the scale, the more costs are incurred.
If you have a lot of spare funds, it won’t be a huge burden, but if you were a person with a lot of money to begin with, you wouldn’t choose such an extreme method.
To Hako, viewbots only make it look like there are more viewers, and since they do not actually increase the enjoyment of the user, they are not effective in actually increasing income.
In the end, most of them only spent money and were ridiculed by viewers who noticed that they were viewbots.
But you used that on our streamers?
‘Are those streamers okay?’
-are you okay. We responded the moment the viewbot came in, so there was no direct damage.
‘good job.’
Still, I was surprised to hear that other people were involved in modifications even though we are now part of the same company.
You can believe it when Maria says she coped. There won’t be much damage.
Next, I asked what I was curious about.
‘But you’re not taking any further action? ‘Have you been waiting to ask me?’
-yes. Still, if the attack had come from my master, I would have immediately intercepted it in advance and counterattacked.
‘You know that. So, do you have anything in mind?’
-There are a lot of them. This time, I plan to make things bigger than the previous Crocodile Studio controversy. First of all, there is a need to show off Awaken’s abilities to its creators and those around them.
‘hmm… ‘
Certainly, the Crocodile Studio incident last time had already come to fruition, so it could have been resolved without Awaken taking action. And to be honest, there weren’t many areas where Awaken resolved matters in public.
At best, people will think that it was all about supporting Sarah and Jang Seok-gi. It was unavoidable because it was a way to induce confusion by disclosing internal data anonymously.
‘If they show a stance of actively protecting their creators this time, they may be able to add to what happened last time and be evaluated as a great place that takes great care of its creators and even has the ability to do so.’
-that’s right. You can get the image of a company that takes complete responsibility for content planning, streamer care, and legal aspects. And in fact, since Twatch’s management and a major streamer were involved, it was bound to happen at some point anyway.
‘With such a rotten head holding on, trouble would have arisen at some point.’
hmm.
I nodded.
‘Well, even if that were the case, he wouldn’t have pulled a trick on me.’
Because the platforms are different in the first place. It was clear that this attack was limited to Twatch streamers.
The reason why I streamed on YouTube instead of Twatch, which is famous for streaming, was not a big deal.
It was a YouTube channel that was first used to gain recognition, and most of the programs it appeared in were released through YouTube.
People who search my name for various events usually come across me through my YouTube channel, so even considering the influx, that was a better method.
I, who mixes live broadcasts with exercise and daily broadcasts, decided that it would be better to continue broadcasting on YouTube, which is doing well, rather than on Twatch, which has games as its main content.
‘But since it’s like this, I think I made a good decision not to go to a place with a lot of problems.’
-Actually, I thought about just getting suspended and taking the position of a clear victim. But that didn’t seem right.
‘That’s a bit like that. Still, he belongs to our company. good job.’
-Yes, so the suspension has been blocked for now. All the evidence remains, but what I was thinking about was bigger than simply dealing with the instigator of this incident.
I asked back what Maria had said.
‘Creating a streaming platform?’
-Yes, we are creating another company other than MCN. I will create other companies later, but for now, I will start with companies that are directly connected to the owner.
‘It’s a streaming platform… At first, I thought it was a bit unexpected. ‘Tell me in detail.’
-It’s not a bad idea.
Maria’s explanation follows.
Each streaming platform that exists today has its own drawbacks.
For example, Twatch had many disappointing aspects in its service. Not only were there limitations on picture quality and frames, but there were also excessive advertisements that interfered with viewing, and occasional server and network problems.
The only advantage is that it is easier to communicate with viewers thanks to the relatively short delay?
The same goes for YouTube, which I am currently using. It’s easy to manage because it’s broadcasted as a video channel, but if you think about it seriously, other than that, everything else is close to a disadvantage.
Unless you come across it through search because it became a hot topic like me, the accessibility of Live is virtually zero and the UI is not very good. There are a lot of recommended videos around, so the viewer bounce rate is high. It was a bonus that the broadcast delay was longer than that of Twatch.
Thanks to Maria’s support, I was just using it, but in fact, if it weren’t for Maria, I might have switched to Twatch a long time ago.
However, if we create the platform ourselves, we can eliminate all of those shortcomings. No, beyond eliminating it, Maria’s technology will be able to create services that existing platforms can never match.
Maria’s explanations were all things that made people nod their heads automatically.
-And if you create a new platform, you will be able to do more than you can now. The content we have planned this time actually requires specifications that are difficult to transmit properly with ordinary equipment. There are many functions that could not be optimized and implemented to fit the limitations of existing platforms.
Certainly, if Maria, who possesses future technology, decided to create a platform, something that could take over the market would emerge.
‘good. Let’s shake up the industry.’
-yes!
But there was work to do first. The goal was to completely destroy the competitors of the platform we would create and those who attacked Awaken creators.
***
“What is this… ! How did this become public!!”
Lim Jin-su’s hands trembled as he witnessed something shocking. The smartphone slipped out of my grasp and fell to the floor.
Boom~
On the screen of the fallen smartphone, the screen of the community that Jinsoo Lim had been watching until just now appeared. This is the bulletin board where he even hired part-time workers to forcibly create public opinion.
The place was ablaze with Maria’s new posting.
[Hello, this is Awaken.]
First, we would like to sincerely apologize to our viewers and fans who have experienced confusion due to the recent viewbot controversy regarding our streamers.
As a result of our investigation, it was confirmed that Viewbot was not used by us, but was used for the purpose of disrupting the broadcast through malicious terrorism.
The person who carried out the Viewbot attack was confirmed to be Mr. L, who is also active as a streamer on Twatch, and Mr. O, the manager of Twatch Korea, appears to have participated.
As evidence of Viewbot terrorism, we have secured phone recordings and conversation files between Mr. L and Mr. O, and part-time employment details on the bulletin board.
Those who are the main culprits of this incident will be held civilly and criminally responsible, and we will do our best to ensure that they are severely punished.
We would like to repeatedly apologize to the viewers who must have been very surprised, and express our sincere apologies.
Taking this incident as an opportunity, Awaken will work harder to create a safe broadcasting environment for its creators, and will continue to do its best to become Awaken trusted by creators and viewers.
thank you
Although it was not directly mentioned in the article, the person involved, Lim Jin-soo, was able to know. That Mr. L, who appeared in the statement written by Awaken, was himself. And the Twatch Korea manager, Mr. O, who took part in it, is Oh Kyung-mo.
Awaken seemed completely determined to kill Im Jin-su, and uploaded all the evidence attached to the very next post.
Fortunately, no direct names were mentioned, and the evidence included mosaics and voice modification. It is not immediately clear who it is.
However, since Awaken had obtained such data, it was only a matter of time before Imjinsu was finished.
The community had already started looking for the culprit who had done this. Maybe he would be found out right away that he was the culprit.
Im Jin-su picked up the smartphone with trembling hands and contacted Oh Gyeong-mo. Oh Gyeong-mo also must have heard that something big had happened and answered the phone as soon as the first signal rang.
“Gyeongmo hyung! How did you handle things! Why do the Awaken bastards have our call recordings and conversation files!”
Im Jin-su screamed as soon as Oh Gyeong-mo answered the phone. Since he was working and had never had contact with anyone else, he naturally assumed that the information had been leaked from Oh Gyeong-mo’s side.
However, Oh Gyeong-mo also felt unfairly treated. He also never showed or told anyone evidence of his crimes. I just did as I had done before and listened to Im Jin-su’s request, but when I woke up, this mess had happened.
On the contrary, Oh Gyeong-mo, who felt that she was in an even more unfair situation, could not come out with kind words.
-what? This bastard… ! hey! If you’re going to use a company, you should use a proper company! What if I get caught with all the evidence that I asked to put in a viewbot and even wrote a part-time job on a bulletin board?!
“That needs to be discussed separately! I had been staying at home until now and was suddenly struck by lightning!”
-You call that a horse?! Me too, man!
They were busy criticizing each other, as if they had been watching each other since when.
This was because each party believed that the evidence had been leaked due to the other’s carelessness.
In the end, Im Jin-su, who had raised his voice in an argument with Oh Gyeong-mo, angrily hung up the phone. And Lim Jin-su’s face turned pale when he checked the website he was still connected to.
[But Mr. L, isn’t this ㅇㅈㅅ?]
Yesterday, he continued to broadcast with a shit-chewing expression on his face, and he was very busy, and the time when the Viewbot attack occurred was exactly after he indulged in it.
Didn’t he do this because he lost viewers because of Awaken content?
People have already begun to doubt the identity of Im Jin-su.
“Oh, no, no. !!”
-Okay! Hehe!
An artificial intelligence that was watching Lim Jin-su laughed playfully, but he could not hear anything.
Except for your own screams.
