"Tangren Media?"
Chen Fan was still a bit confused when he first received the call from the company.
"Oh right, they said that TV series seems to be a period fantasy drama."
"It's called Chinese Paladin!"
Chen Fan was stunned for a moment, then quickly remembered.
Damn. How could he have forgotten about this.
"You can authorize the song copyright to them."
"Also, have the company's copyright department reach out to negotiate with their company, strive for all possibilities, we must obtain the exclusive online broadcast rights for this TV series."
"Boss..." the voice on the other end of the phone hesitated and suggested quietly: "This TV series hasn't even aired on television yet, wouldn't it be too risky for us to directly acquire the online broadcast rights?"
"Why don't we wait and see the market response after it airs?"
Chen Fan firmly refused: "No need. Just buy it outright. If you wait to see the market response, other companies will make moves too. By then we'll need to spend more money."
Chen Fan was the boss, he didn't need to explain much.
He just needed to issue orders, and the company management could only execute them.
A few days later, Feifan Video gave all netizens big news.
They announced that at 12 noon today, the MV for Wen Wan's new song 《Always Very Quiet》 would be exclusively released on Feifan Video.
In addition, at 8 pm tomorrow night, the large-scale period fantasy drama 《Chinese Paladin》 would be exclusively streamed on Feifan Video simultaneously with TV broadcast.
As soon as the news came out, from the morning, Feifan Video's user base began to grow rapidly.
Some were Wen Wan's fans, while others were Commoner's fans.
Now everyone knew that this new song by Wen Wan was personally written and composed by Commoner.
Some music critics online praised this collaboration as a union of two powerhouses.
With just two moves, Chen Fan made Feifan Video's traffic surge dramatically, squeezing LeTV, which launched around the same time, far behind.
At noon, he had agreed to go eat at the apartment Ma Xiaoshuai and his wife were renting.
When Chen Fan arrived, Su Ruochu and Song Linlin were sitting in the living room listening to 《Always Very Quiet》.
Looking at the TV beside them, 《Chinese Paladin》 was playing.
Seeing Chen Fan enter, Song Linlin joked with a smile: "Your company is really making a big splash now. Wen Wan's song is just too popular."
"Just today, many of the young people who came to buy milk tea at our shop were listening to this song."
Chen Fan smiled and sat down, "Where's Xiaoshuai?"
"He's cooking in the kitchen, insisting on showing off his skills today."
Chen Fan glanced towards the kitchen and called out: "Hey, I'm asking if you can really do it? If not, let me take over."
Ma Xiaoshuai's voice came from the kitchen.
"Stop talking nonsense. Just wait and eat when it's ready."
Chen Fan smiled and turned his gaze back, then looked at Su Ruochu and Song Linlin.
"Have you watched the TV series? How is it? Is it good?"
Su Ruochu smiled and said: "She's a die-hard fan of Hu Ge, she's been following the series closely recently."
Song Linlin: "It's not just because of Hu Ge, this series is also good. It's been a long time since I've liked a drama this much."
Chen Fan teased: "Don't just watch it on TV, use that time to log into Feifan Video on the computer to watch, give us some more views."
Song Linlin glared: "Big boss, I'm saying, Mr. Chen Big Boss, do you really need to do this..."
Chen Fan said seriously: "Nonsense, you don't know how expensive daily necessities are until you run a household. Feifan Video is in its start-up stage, every bit of data is crucial."
"Alright, alright, I'll finish watching on TV today, and then I'll watch it again on Feifan Video tonight, okay?"
"That's more like it."
After dinner, Chen Fan drove Su Ruochu home together.
"When are you leaving?"
"Tomorrow, I guess?"
Chen Fan felt a bit reluctant: "Isn't there still a few more days before school starts?"
Su Ruochu smiled bitterly: "My three roommates agreed to climb the Great Wall before school starts, I couldn't refuse."
Seeing Chen Fan still looking reluctant, Su Ruochu had to gently hold Chen Fan's hand.
"Alright. I promise you, next time I have a chance, I'll fly over immediately to be with you, okay?"
Chen Fan smiled, "No need. I'll come see you then."
Su Ruochu felt a bit distressed: "Don't always be busy with work, you need to rest, I see you've lost weight recently."
For the first time, Chen Fan revealed his true feelings to Su Ruochu.
"I have a plan. I'm striving to have at least one company go public before I'm 30, to achieve financial freedom."
"Then I'll completely become a hands-off boss, do nothing, and focus on being with you."
Su Ruochu's eyes were full of deep affection.
Chen Fan said with a smile: "By the way, after a while, find a weekend, I'll see if I have time to go to Beijing to be with you."
"Mm."
Chen Fan soon broke his promise.
Because in the following days, he entered a completely busy period.
First, Chen Fan readjusted the company structure, registering Ruofan Group, and restructured the organization of several companies in his hands.
Under Ruofan Group, there was a construction company Qifan Construction, an internet technology company Feifan Technology, an entertainment company Feifan Media, and a club called Medal Club.
In addition, Chen Fan had Guo Shuai and Luo Wenjie thoroughly integrate the shares of some entertainment venues currently in their hands, including the shares of bars, KTVs, game halls and discos previously held by the Zhao family.
They established a company called Jinding Entertainment Services Co., Ltd. Luo Wenjie served as the legal representative of the company, and the two of them, one as the head and one as the deputy, participated in company management.
However, Jinding Entertainment was not incorporated into Ruofan Group's company structure and operated independently.
Time came to March, following the popularity of the New Year Gala endorsement and Zero Point sponsorship, Feifan Video's traffic ushered in its first surge.
Then with the exclusive release of Wen Wan's new song MV, Feifan Video's traffic soared again.
However, these were nothing compared to the third move that followed.
As 《Chinese Paladin》 became a hit on TV stations, in less than a month, this TV series immediately became popular all over the country.
As the exclusive online platform for 《Chinese Paladin》, Feifan Video's traffic reached its peak.
It even caused the website to crash at one point.
Liang Shichu had to urgently reassign personnel to focus on Feifan Video's backend maintenance.
Just less than three months after launch, Feifan Video had completely left LeTV, which launched around the same time, far behind.
The user data of the two were not even in the same league, one was in the sky and the other on the ground.
At the same time, a large number of advertising companies began to approach, seeking advertising cooperation.
At this point, Feifan Video directly fought a beautiful blitzkrieg.
With the popularity of 《Chinese Paladin》 that month, it achieved profitability.
At this point, within the company, no one questioned the business acumen of the boss Chen Fan anymore.
And in the country, online discussions about Feifan Video were in full swing.
Especially on some economic forums and media, experts began to analyze the reasons for Feifan Video's success.
Some summarized several points.
First: Boldness.
The success was naturally inseparable from the founder Chen Fan.
This person was very bold, at the beginning of the product launch, when the prospects were still unclear, he dared to make a big move by directly sponsoring the New Year Gala advertisement.
Most people really don't have this boldness.
Second: Huge user data.
As a product under Feifan Technology, Feifan Video naturally had internal product promotion and marketing from the company.
Feifan Security Guard had a huge user base, and just a small pop-up window could achieve the promotional marketing effect of tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of other companies.
Third: ...
