Chapter 612: Feifan Media
Late September.
After a period of calm, the Zhao family and Chen Fan seemed to have reached a certain tacit understanding, with neither side making any rash moves.
It was as if both wanted to prepare a big move in silence, ready to deliver a fatal blow to the other.
Chen Fan couldn't be bothered to figure out what tricks the Zhao family was up to anymore.
Rather than waiting for the other side to make their move, he was preparing to take the initiative this time.
The plan had been conceived in his mind many times.
He was just waiting for the right moment to completely crush the Zhao family, leaving them no chance to get back up again.
Since Yan Qing had agreed to join, Chen Fan's actions became even quicker.
Originally, he had planned to register a film and television company separately, and then recruit people... but Chen Fan felt this was far too slow.
So he adopted the simplest and most direct method.
He directly spent money to acquire the Sunflower film and television company where Wen Wan was currently working.
At first, they were reluctant to accept the acquisition plan, but later, seeing that Chen Fan was willing to pay a high price, the boss finally opened his mouth wide like a lion, asking for an exorbitant price.
His reasoning, of course, was that the company currently had Wen Wan, a big-name movie star, under contract.
When the negotiating employee brought back the price asked by Sunflower's boss, Chen Fan couldn't help but laugh angrily.
This was treating him like a big fool to fleece.
"Tell him not to use Wen Wan to threaten me. I know Wen Wan's contract will expire in a few months."
"Tell him directly, Wen Wan is my friend. If he's not willing to sell the company, I don't mind directly registering a film and television company and then signing a contract with Wen Wan. That way, he won't make a single yuan."
Sure enough, after hearing these words from Chen Fan, Sunflower's boss was dejected.
Over the next few days, after several more negotiations, the two sides finally reached an agreement at a price that was satisfactory to both.
The entire Sunflower company was packaged and sold to Chen Fan, with the boss taking the money and stepping down.
In addition to acquiring the company where Wen Wan was working, Chen Fan also acquired the New Generation Music Studio.
Li Changjun and Wang Xu were both old friends, and they knew each other well.
Although their original creative abilities were somewhat lacking, they were fully capable of management or organizing bands.
The name wasn't changed, it was still called New Generation Music Studio.
Chen Fan made Wang Xu the manager of the studio, and Li Changjun the deputy manager.
As for the name of the film and television company, Chen Fan directly changed it to Feifan Media.
Currently, all the leadership and employees of the company remained unchanged, but Yan Qing had already begun poaching people from other film and television companies behind the scenes.
When the new leadership arrived, they would begin to carry out extensive reforms in the company.
However, no matter how the future reforms would be, one thing would not change.
That is, Feifan Media would have only one top star, and that was Wen Wan.
Chen Fan's plan was very clear.
During the National Day holiday, Feifan Technology would launch the Feifan Mobile Browser.
Next, the Feifan Video web version project would also be completed soon.
Once Feifan Video was online, Chen Fan's plan to play the entertainment card could begin.
Movies, TV series, songs, concerts, and future hit variety shows like Running Man, The Voice, Singer, and various other programs, all would be covered.
Imagine, in the future, when netizens use Feifan Mobile Browser on their phones to read news and watch videos, and when they turn on their computers, they'll have Feifan Antivirus and Feifan Security Guard.
They can also play various games developed by Feifan Technology on their computers.
After work in the evening, they can use Feifan Video to watch self-produced films, TV series, variety shows, and even concerts by Feifan Media...
For this entertainment card, Chen Fan planned to lay out one move at a time, until a secure closed loop was formed.
He didn't intend to give this piece of cake to anyone else.
On the day the company was listed, Chen Fan took a photo and sent it to Wen Wan.
In fact, Wen Wan had already learned about this news from her agent.
In her view, Chen Fan was doing this entirely for her sake.
It would be a lie to say she wasn't grateful.
When she saw the photo, the woman sat in the car smiling like a child.
"Thank you, boss!"
She sent such a text message to Chen Fan.
After sending the message, Wen Wan suddenly felt all her fatigue disappear, and her body was filled with motivation.
From now on, she would be working for Chen Fan.
Wen Wan, you must work hard and make lots and lots of money for the boss!
On the first day of the National Day holiday, Feifan Mobile Browser was launched.
Unlike the high-profile promotion of the previous launch of Security Guard, this time Chen Fan chose a low-key launch and didn't spend much money on promotion.
This was done firstly to avoid attracting attention from competitors and then suffering suppression and exclusion.
The second reason, of course, was to avoid suspicion, because there was already a similar UC mobile browser on the market.
And they had launched nearly a month earlier.
However, even though Chen Fan didn't let the company spend money on promotion, and merely hung the Feifan Mobile Browser icon and download link on Feifan Security Guard.
In just one day, the download volume of Feifan Mobile Browser reached more than 600,000.
And this number was still rising rapidly.
This was the advantage of having a platform.
Why did Tencent Group become a behemoth in the future? It was because they controlled the platform and held a terrifying number of users in their hands.
With these users, they could achieve twice the result with half the effort no matter what product they made.
Of course, there was another point: the quality of Feifan Mobile Browser itself was good enough.
Some netizens compared the two products and found that Feifan Mobile Browser completely outperformed the previously released UC mobile browser in terms of both functionality and interface aesthetics.
As a result, most UC browser users all switched to using Feifan Mobile Browser.
Chen Fan didn't care about the alarmed stance of his competitors. He was now in the university town area, drinking milk tea with Ma Xiaoshuai.
Today was the opening day of Ma Xiaoshuai's milk tea shop. The young couple had chosen a very elegant name, called Sweet Search Milk Tea Shop.
The shop hired two young girls as employees, with Song Linlin personally serving as the cashier.
Chen Fan and Ma Xiaoshuai sat at the entrance, each holding a cup of milk tea.
Ma Xiaoshuai looked nervous, "How is it? How is it? What do you think of today's customer flow?"
"Not bad."
Ma Xiaoshuai wasn't very satisfied with Chen Fan's answer.
"What do you mean by not bad? Quickly use your professional ability to help analyze!"
Chen Fan couldn't help but laugh.
"Brother, it's only the first day of opening, and with promotional activities, what can you see from this?"
"There are quite a few people today, but most of it is an illusion."
"The next few days are crucial, especially after the promotional period. If the customer flow can maintain one-third of what it is now, your shop can be considered successful."
"As for going higher than that, you'll need to surpass other competitors in the area in terms of product style or business philosophy."
Ma Xiaoshuai looked a bit depressed.
"Thinking about it now, doing business isn't easy. I don't know how you managed to get through it."
Seeing his worried look, Chen Fan couldn't help but smile and comfort him.
"Don't worry, I estimate that it might be a bit difficult for your shop to make big money, but as long as there are no problems with the operation, you should be able to make some small profits."
Ma Xiaoshuai pouted, "In your eyes, big boss, all money is small money. My wish is simple, as long as we don't lose money in the first month, it's fine."
Chen Fan smiled, "Let's wait and see."
"If business doesn't pick up by then, I'll help you think of other ways."
Ma Xiaoshuai finally grinned, "That's what I was waiting to hear."
"Damn. You were deliberately fishing for my words!"
