As the curtain lifts on the高考成绩 across the nation, a wave of students is delving into the critical task of college application decision-making.

At times, the waitlist has ballooned to over ten thousand individuals.

In response to the unprecedented demand, Alibaba Group's Vice President, Wu Jia, took to his social circle to shed light on the situation. By 3:15 PM, Quark's system had churned out an impressive three million application reports. The current backlog, he explained, is primarily due to the simultaneous release of scores across multiple provinces, leading to a sudden, sharp increase in user requests.

Wu Jia emphasized the gravity of the situation, stating, "This is not just a collective trust in Quark's seven years of technological accumulation for the college entrance examination; it is a responsibility our team must fully embrace." He assured that the team is working tirelessly to expand computational resources to reduce waiting times and ensure that every student receives their personalized application report.

Quark stands as the sole AI application in the country capable of producing expert-level application reports. Despite Alibaba's preemptive allocation of computational resources—100 times more than the previous year—the demand has still outpaced supply, particularly in populous examination regions such as Henan, Hubei, and Shandong.

In a detailed post, Wu Jia expressed gratitude for the trust placed in Quark and reiterated the team's commitment to enhancing service quality. "Today marks the third day of score releases. We've witnessed a significant influx of users needing to queue for application reports. By 3:15 PM, our system had generated 3 million reports, a testament to the trust in Quark's seven-year technological journey and a responsibility our team is fully committed to upholding.

Due to the concentrated release of scores across various provinces, the demand for generating application reports has surged, prompting our team to urgently expand our computational capacity to minimize waiting times. We strive to ensure that every student receives their exclusive application report.

We appreciate your trust, and we will respond with an enhanced service experience to honor that trust."
