Chapter 245: The Mastermind Behind the Scenes Has Been Found
"Shocking! An Internet Dark Horse Descends from the Sky!"
"An Internet Miracle Created by a Company Established for Less Than a Year!"
"Breaking Through the Internet Winter, How Did They Hatch a Phenomenal Software!"
Discussions about Feifan Technology on the internet were still ongoing.
Now, Chen Fan no longer needed to spend money on promotion, because recently, there were endless reports about Feifan Technology on the internet.
Everyone was discussing the phenomenal software, Feifan Antivirus.
Some people were studying the wonders of this software, some were discussing why this software became successful, and some media were constantly reporting the various records that Feifan Technology was currently creating.
After one week of launch, the download count broke 500,000.
After fourteen days, the download count exceeded 3 million.
The number of paid users reached 2 million.
In just half a month.
The profit has exceeded 70 million.
This was undoubtedly an internet legend.
Most importantly, the download numbers on the Feifan Technology official website were still rising.
What did this mean?
It meant that more and more people were downloading this software every day.
As the installation volume of Feifan Antivirus soared, the traffic of the web navigation Go Navigation Home set up by Chen Fan also began to increase steadily.
200,000, 300,000, 400,000... 1 million...
In just one week, it broke through 1 million.
It's worth noting that nowadays, people were already used to the navigation address hao123.
Downloading Go Navigation Home was purely because of the download link embedded in Feifan Antivirus.
Many people tried it out with the mindset of giving it a shot.
Unexpectedly, it turned out to be truly amazing.
The simple homepage functionality, fresh webpage design, and no advertising plugins... and the loading speed was incredibly fast.
Very soon, more and more people grew fond of Go Navigation Home, and even a large number of original hao123 users switched over.
This time, Chen Fan didn't do any promotion for Go Navigation Home. Relying solely on the traffic from Feifan Antivirus, he was able to boost the user numbers of Go Navigation Home.
This move alone saved Chen Fan at least tens of millions in promotion costs.
At the same time, the market shares of internet antivirus giants like Kingsoft and Rising began to shrink.
Everyone knew that it was Feifan Technology that took away their shares.
However, facing such an internet newcomer, these internet giants were powerless to retaliate, they could only watch as the other party continued to break records.
Two weeks after Feifan Technology's launch, Kingsoft took the lead in issuing an announcement, proposing a discounted pricing strategy.
And following Feifan Technology's approach, they introduced various package deals and trial prices.
Subsequently, Rising, Jiangmin, and other antivirus companies followed suit, all starting to lower their prices.
They were preparing for a price war.
Facing this move from the opponents, Feifan Technology remained quite calm.
They didn't initiate any price reduction activities.
Immediately, some media analyzed that this was because the managers of Feifan Technology were highly confident in their software.
Of course, the facts were indeed so.
Feifan Antivirus was at least two versions ahead of its competitors.
They were not afraid of price competition from their competitors.
...
September 10th.
Chen Fan appeared at the club.
Because today was the opening day of the haunted house experience hall.
During the summer vacation, Ding Dian led a team to study abroad, directly poaching a store manager and more than a dozen experienced haunted house staff from a haunted house experience hall in a first-tier city.
In addition, with dozens of new employees recruited here, after more than a month of training in August, the haunted house finally started trial operations today.
Thanks to the huge traffic of the club, this haunted house experience hall didn't need to advertise at all.
Ever since the renovations began, there were a large number of customers inquiring about when it would open for business every day.
Today, when the haunted house opened, there was a large crowd of young people gathered in front of the entrance.
More than 70% of them were college students.
This was the first haunted house experience hall in the entire Yunhai.
Young people have a particularly high acceptance of new things, so they rushed over eagerly to experience it.
Nowadays, Medal Club has become a must-visit destination for young people or couples to relax and go on dates.
Buy a package ticket, the guys can go experience CS live shooting, the girls can go to the yoga hall or badminton hall.
In the end, the two can also go have an adventure in the haunted house together.
In addition, the club also has a beverage shop, rest areas... absolutely giving customers a sense of being at home.
At least in 2001 Yunhai, Medal Club had no competitors.
At the haunted house entrance, Ding Dian went up to give a short speech, then together with two store managers, they used scissors to cut the ribbon.
Chen Fan stood in the audience, smiling and applauding, without going up to show his face.
After the ribbon-cutting, the haunted house experience hall officially opened for business.
The customers holding experience tickets at the entrance could finally wait no longer, surging in waves through the entrance to begin the first round of experiences.
Feng Pojun squeezed through the crowd from behind and came up to Chen Fan.
"Boss..."
Chen Fan turned his head and looked at Feng Pojun, somewhat surprised.
He gestured for them to talk elsewhere, and the two left the crowd, coming to the club's rest area.
During this period, Feng Pojun had been helping Chen Fan handle private matters outside, so it had been a long time since he was last seen at the club.
"How is it? Any progress?"
Chen Fan took the initiative to pour him a cup of tea, smiling and asking.
"Thank you, boss."
Feng Pojun accepted the tea but didn't drink it, instead nodding.
"There's a lead."
"I have been watching that Ah Biao for half a month, with no discoveries."
"This guy is a typical junkie, usually either getting high or hiding at home sleeping all day, with basically no social circle."
"Unless he's out of money, he'll only go out to extort or steal wallets..."
"Based on what you said last time, boss, since I couldn't find any leads, I directly tied him up when he went out."
"This guy is just a coward, with some threats, he spilled everything."
Feng Pojun looked at Chen Fan and continued.
"According to Ah Biao's confession, there was indeed someone who instructed them to deal with that Huang Xiaobo."
"At the time, his addiction relapsed, and he was out of money."
"That person appeared and said that if he helped him with a task, he could provide them with better goods and cash rewards."
"For a junkie, this temptation is almost irresistible. So Ah Biao took the job."
Chen Fan nodded, this was basically similar to his own speculation.
"Who is the person who paid him to take action?"
"According to Ah Biao, this person is called Brother Ma, a figure who dabbles in both the underworld and the legitimate world, with quite a solid connection in the underworld."
Saying that, Feng Pojun took out a photo from his pocket.
"Brother Ma?"
Looking at the unfamiliar face in the photo, Chen Fan shook his head, indicating that he didn't recognize the person.
Feng Pojun continued: "Based on the lead provided by Ah Biao, I found this guy called Brother Ma. I have been watching him for a while."
"I discovered that this guy oversees a club called Blue Seductress in the city center, with a gang of younger brothers under him."
"His daily life is very irregular, mostly active at night and sleeping during the day."
"But one thing is quite strange, during this week, he only met privately with one person, once at the club and once in an underground parking garage in a car."
"During the underground parking garage meeting, Brother Ma came down from the car carrying a bag that seemed to contain a lot of money."
Saying that, Feng Pojun took out another photo from his pocket.
"This is the person he met with."
Chen Fan took the photo and looked at it, instantly freezing.
It was him?
