How do you determine whether content is high-quality and original?” Chen Yansen interrupted, cutting straight to the point.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’ve considered this. We’ll launch an originality review mechanism simultaneously, using a combination of system and manual review to reduce plagiarism, content rewriting, and low-quality content.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Also, for high-quality content, higher click-through rates, completion rates, interactions, and page dwell time are always better.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liang Bo had prepared thoroughly and answered without hesitation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Fine. For traffic distribution, use the plan we discussed last time: start with small-scale testing, select the top-performing content, then allocate it to larger traffic pools.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Fine. For the traffic allocation mechanism, use the plan we discussed last time—start with a small-scale test, select the top-performing content based on data, then allocate it to a larger traffic pool.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Understood, Boss. Next is the ad revenue-sharing system.” Liang Bo clicked his mouse, switching the projection screen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Regular creators: 0.5 yuan per thousand reads;\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>High-quality creators: 1 yuan per thousand reads;\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Top creators: 1.5 yuan per thousand reads.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In addition to basic ad sharing, there are various content subsidies, with rewards ranging from 0.3 to 3 yuan per thousand reads.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Have finance and data teams verified this? Can ad revenue cover costs?” Chen Yansen asked again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Boss, no problem. Last year, the industry’s CPM standard was 2–10 yuan per thousand impressions; conversion from exposure to reads was only 10% to 20%. Our actual sharing ratio is between 5% and 20%.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Boss, no problem. Last year, the CPM rate in the advertising industry ranged from 2 to 10 yuan per thousand impressions, with only a 10% to 20% conversion rate from exposure to reads. Our actual revenue share is between 5% and 20%.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Yansen did a rough calculation: an original article with 100,000 reads would earn the author between 50 and 450 yuan—not much, but in 2012, it was still highly attractive to self-media creators.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Huang Zheng is currently building the Pinbei Alliance.

Within one hour, page impressions reached over three million, attracting a flood of content creators.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Earning a share of platform ad revenue based on reading volume wasn’t new in 2012—NetEase, Sina, and Sohu had already implemented similar policies during their blog eras.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Backed by Senlian Capital, Toutiao, having launched for less than two months, reached a daily active user count of ten million and instantly became a hot target for self-media creators.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone knew: a new information platform had low competition and high unit value early on—register first, cash in first.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>By midnight, after only six hours online, total Toutiao account registrations surpassed 100,000.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Original content in entertainment, technology, automotive, finance, and fiction channels exploded in volume.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One article titled “The Absurd Past of the Mountain Village” shattered traffic limits: just six thousand words vividly portrayed four rural beauties, stirring users’ curiosity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fortunately, the author knew how to tread the line—visually alluring but never vulgar, leaving zero grounds for censorship.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It garnered over 600,000 reads and earned 1,100 yuan that day.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The entertainment channel overflowed with content about Liu Dehua’s daughter’s birth, Mayday concerts, and top ten Chinese music albums.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, fake news was also abundant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For example: Li Lianjie died of sudden heart failure, Hong Jinbao died of stroke, Xiao Shenyang died in a car crash—Toutiao’s reviewers caught and banned each one.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Major KOLs from tech, digital, and sports circles flooded in, accumulating online followers while earning substantial income.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next morning, Chen Yansen arrived at the office, sat down heavily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As usual, he checked data and handled emails; only after finishing did he lean back and pull out his phone to kill time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Giant shake-up in group-buying industry: Meituan rises to number one!
