Back to the Past: Breaking the Love Spell

Chapter 571

Sean thought for a moment before saying, "I was thinking of creating something called Friend Net, which is based on the same model as Alumni Network. It won't have the sections for studying, but we can add a section for sharing work experiences!"

"It's a good idea," Carlisle praised him.

Sean thought Carlisle had agreed with him, so he said immediately, "I'll get the R&D team to start developing FriendNet right now!"

"I haven't finished talking."

Carlisle laughed and said, "Have you considered the fact that Alumni Network's popularity will drop rapidly if we launch FriendNet?"

Alumni Network was a social network for students in tertiary institutions to use, whereas FriendNet would be a platform for all Internet users.

It's general knowledge that there are many more Internet users in the country than university students.

If FriendNet were launched, its registered users would be sure to surpass that of Alumni Network.

Most people tended to lean toward herd mentality and seeking novelty.

Once FriendNet gained traction, Alumni Network would likely lose users.

Instead of making a separate website, it would be more reasonable to open Alumni Network up to the public.

However, the decline of SociableNet made Carlisle hesitant to make the decision.

"I-I didn't think about that."

Now that Carlisle had mentioned it, Sean became gloomy at once.

"Are we really going to give up on that demographic? There are 100 million of them!"

Alumni Network was now taking on advertisements. Thus, the profits from advertising fees would rise as the number of website users increased. If they could set up FriendNet, they could stand to make a considerable profit in advertising fees.

"Let's just do well with Alumni Network first. We shouldn't only be focused on expanding. In business, we must focus on the product and user experience."

Carlisle was also new to the business industry. He had only succeeded based on his memories from his past life, and he still hadn't decided what the future development of Alumni Network would be.

"Alright. I'm going to class now. Let's chat later, Carl!"

"Okay."

After hanging up, Carlisle launched Alumni Network on his phone and logged in to his account.

It took him 30 seconds to enter the webpage using his 2G network.

It took another ten minutes for the login page to appear.

After entering his password, he waited another seven or eight seconds before logging in.

Once smartphones were made, he would have to talk to the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology about getting a 3G network.

Otherwise, his smartphones wouldn't be pleasant to use at all.

Carlisle browsed the posts on Alumni Network.C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.

He realized that there were several users who were advertising.

There was even a post about secondhand cars.

Carlisle clicked on the personal page of the person who had posted it.

His name was Hans Warner, and he was verified as a Yorksle Polytechnic student.

The post consisted of a short promotional text and a few photos of the secondhand cars.

The text read: "Hans' secondhand cars will provide you with a driving experience that's worth it! Every car undergoes a stringent selection process to ensure quality and reliability.

Below the text were photos of an old Santana from the 90s and a Mazda

Below that was a post that sold hairpins.

The text read: "Let your hair be part of your charisma! The classy pearl hairpin is making a comeback! Pearls exude an elegant air, and the retro vibe will induce nostalgia. The simple design can be used with all kinds of hairstyles, and they'll give you a timeless look. Contact us to order and restore your beauty!"

Below that post were a few photos of a pretty woman wearing the hairpins.

Carlisle was slightly startled when he saw the woman in the photos.

He wondered if it was the same short-haired woman from the night before. He recalled that her name was Sharon or some other.

He clicked on her profile page and saw that she was verified as a student at Caltopia College.

It indeed was her.

Carlisle continued browsing through the posts.

He saw that eight out of ten were advertisements.

One of the posts was a snarky comment about all the advertisements.
