Rebirth Starting as a Stock Market Enthusiast

Chapter 169 Wang Kai's Thoughts

After Shen Fei finished explaining the plans for the e-commerce business, his gaze fell on Zhou Jiahui's face.

How is the virtual IP project progressing?

Zhou Jiahui immediately sat up straight, her face beaming with barely suppressed excitement: "President Shen, the demo for the first virtual IP is finished, and the content plan has been sent to President Li."

Shen Fei nodded, not surprised by this.

He personally oversaw this project, which was modeled after the wildly popular anime IP "Little Monk Yichan" from his previous life. However, he wasn't working on Buddhism, but Confucianism. This brand-new virtual IP account was called "The School Under Mount Ni".

The main characters are two 3D rendered chibi-style characters: one is a young student in blue robes with a topknot, sometimes confused and sometimes carefree, and the other is Confucius, who strokes his beard, looks dignified but occasionally makes witty remarks.

The scene is set in a quaint, traditional private school courtyard, with a traditional Chinese ink painting style and a profound artistic conception.

Shen Fei and Zhou Jiahui talked a lot about copywriting, such as inspirational quotes for the soul.

In the video, a primary school student asks with a worried look, "Master, why am I always less diligent than others? This world is too corrupt." Confucius then pats his head and says gently, "A gentleman is not a vessel." These four simple words, accompanied by soothing music, instantly calm the mental exhaustion of countless working people.

There are also unexpectedly cute moments and cynical inspirational quotes.

After listening, Confucius first said righteously, "Do not do to others what you would not have them do to you." Then, the scene changes, and the old master rolls up his sleeves, mouths "cut him up" to the air, his eyes full of protectiveness, "Why are you being so polite with your teacher?"

The contrast between his serious demeanor and his witty remarks is enough to make the video go viral among young people.

Once the account's follower count reaches its peak, it's time to start creating in-depth content and upgrading the brand.

A primary school student asked, "What is the meaning of life?"

Confucius would then take him to see the sunrise over the eastern mountains, witness the changing seasons, and finally leave him with the words, "If I hear the Way in the morning, I can die content in the evening," prompting viewers to deeply reflect on the value of life. This kind of content can both solidify a core fanbase and attract collaborations from high-end brands.

"For the first video, let's use the 'A Gentleman is Not a Tool' approach." Shen Fei turned his gaze to Li Cheng and Guo Feng online. "President Li, please optimize the model again, making the character's micro-expressions more vivid. Release it promptly at 6 PM today."

"Yes, Mr. Shen!"

Li Cheng and Guo Feng nodded solemnly at the same time.

At this time, Li Cheng and Guo Feng were not in Anyuan. After joining the company, they were assigned to Hangzhou by Shen Fei.

There were two main reasons for sending them there. The first was the issue of educational resources for Li Cheng's children; the educational conditions in Anyuan County were too poor.

Although Li Cheng indicated that he could accept it, Shen Fei also needed to consider the other party's concerns.

Just then, Shen Fei wanted to open Feiyu Media's e-commerce headquarters in Hangzhou, so he had Li Cheng and Guo Feng register a company there in advance to secure a foothold for the e-commerce business unit that would be fully launched later.

This is the second reason.

Looking at everyone in the conference room, Shen Fei couldn't help but feel emotional. Four months had passed since his rebirth, and Feiyu Media had finally gotten back on track.

The pieces have all been placed in the game.

E-commerce, virtual IPs, novel platforms—a vast online network covering all areas is slowly unfolding, centered on Anyuan County.

Just as Shen Fei was about to adjourn the meeting, Wang Kai, who was sitting next to him, suddenly raised his hand to signal.

Shen Fei nodded to Fatty Wang, signaling him to speak.

Wang Kai hesitated for a long time, his chubby face scrunched up, and said embarrassedly, "Brother Fei, I..."

My question is, if Ruanruanjiang wants to sign a contract with our company, what kind of contract can we offer?

Soft sauce?

Qin Ziyi's eyelids twitched, and an image of a female anchor dressed in a Japanese maid outfit with an overly sweet tongue immediately popped into her mind.

When Shen Fei was working on the song "Meow Meow Meow," he specifically wanted someone who could speak Japanese to sing it, and Wang Kai found Ruanruanjiang, who streamed on a small platform. This girl didn't have any other skills, but she could imitate the consonant sounds and her few broken Japanese phrases perfectly.

Seeing the puzzled looks on everyone's faces, Wang Kai blushed even more and quickly explained, "It's...it's that streamer who Fei Ge asked me to find before, the one who sings the Japanese version of 'Meow Meow Meow,' the one who can use the consonant sounds..."

Oh...

It was her! Everyone suddenly realized.

"She contacted you first?"

"Yes." Wang Kai nodded quickly, and as if afraid that Shen Fei wouldn't believe him, he quickly added, "She messaged me saying that she really likes the atmosphere of our company, thinks you're really amazing, Fei-ge, and wants to—want to join FeiYu."

When Wang Kai said this, there was a hint of expectation in his eyes.

He did have a selfish motive. That Ruanruanjiang was a treasure streamer he discovered by chance; her voice was exactly what his anime aesthetic was all about.

Cough cough! If we could sign her to the company, it would be so much easier to find voice-overs for video editing in the future...

Shen Fei looked at Wang Kai's chubby face, which was all squished up, and found it somewhat amusing.

That fat guy, his thoughts are written all over his face. Isn't he just after her sweet voice and trying to find an excuse to get her into the company, hoping to take advantage of her proximity?

However, Wang Kai's suggestion, though unintentional, happened to remind Shen Fei.

The music industry, a huge pie that has supported countless internet celebrities and MCN agencies in the past, is ready to be sliced ​​up.

"You can sign it," Shen Fei said calmly, breaking the brief silence in the conference room.

"Really?!" Wang Kai's eyes lit up instantly.

"You should talk to her about a 30/70 split in the contract. If she's willing, she can come to Anyuan County to sign the contract anytime."

In the conference room, Wang Kai nodded excitedly, his chubby face jiggling, "Okay, Fei-ge! I'll contact her right after the meeting!"

"Alright, that's enough for today's meeting."

As everyone got up to leave, Wang Kai was the first to rush out of the meeting room, pulling out his phone to contact Ruanruanjiang.

Shen Fei watched his retreating figure, a smile flickering across his lips.

He agreed for two reasons. First, Wang Kai was a company veteran, and this small personal favor could be satisfied. Spending a fortune to buy a horse's bones would make the team more cohesive.

Secondly, and more importantly, this Ruanruanjiang is just a starting point, the first piece in his strategy for the music industry.

In its previous life, the rise of Douyin not only made countless internet celebrities famous, but also sparked a revolution in music copyright.

Countless songs that were unknown through traditional channels have become wildly popular across the country because of a 15-second background music track, generating hundreds of millions in commercial value.

Signing Ruanruanjiang is just the first step.
