Rebirth Starting as a Stock Market Enthusiast

About five minutes later, a man wearing a plaid shirt and carrying a backpack strode in.

The man was in his early thirties, with an ordinary appearance, but he walked steadily, had clear eyes, and possessed a calm demeanor unique to tech men.

He spotted Ning Wei by the window at a glance, a simple and honest smile appeared on his face, and he quickly walked over.

"Junior sister, I'm sorry, I was busy with something just now."

"It's alright, senior brother, we just arrived too." Ning Wei stood up and introduced them, "This is Shen Fei, the boss of our Feiyu Media. Mr. Shen, this is the senior brother I mentioned to you, Li Cheng."

"Mr. Li, it's a pleasure to meet you." Shen Fei stood up, smiled, and extended his hand. His voice was not loud, but it was calm and approachable.

Li Cheng was slightly surprised, and shook hands with Shen Fei: "Mr. Shen, you're too kind. Just call me Li Cheng."

The three sat down, and Shen Fei got straight to the point without beating around the bush, explaining his ideas about virtual IPs.

He spoke clearly and logically about everything from account positioning, content direction, and core story to future monetization strategies.

Li Cheng listened attentively, his initially polite expression gradually becoming serious.

He hadn't expected that this young man, who looked like he had just graduated, would have such a profound understanding of virtual IP, even surpassing many so-called experts in the industry.

After a moment's thought, Li Cheng offered his professional assessment: "President Shen, your idea is excellent. Creating a virtual human isn't difficult. Even if you demand more detail, it simply means spending more time on modeling, which I can handle myself. However..."

Li Cheng adjusted his glasses: "For a virtual IP to truly enter the market and operate stably, it also requires a real-time rendering engine, motion capture equipment, and daily maintenance."

"I wonder if Mr. Li has anyone in mind?"

Li Cheng thought for a moment and said, "I do have a candidate. He's very skilled, the most talented animator I've ever seen. He's not currently employed."

"But... he has a bad temper, he's a troublemaker. He has a bad attitude, and he often quits when he's unhappy. I had a terrible headache dealing with him before."

Shen Fei didn't care; there are troublemakers everywhere, but he didn't believe he couldn't handle one.

"So, technically there aren't really any major problems?" Shen Fei asked in a concluding manner.

"That's right." Li Cheng nodded in a deep voice: "The most expensive part of animation production is people. As long as the people are in place, there won't be any problems."

......

Not long after, Guo Feng arrived. He was currently staying at home and taking on freelance work online.

It was a relatively relaxed time, and just when I was feeling a bit bored and had nothing to do, I suddenly received a call from Li Cheng.

I thought my former boss was planning some big project again, so I rushed over excitedly.

But when I got there, I found out that the so-called project was just listening to a recent college graduate talk about his entrepreneurial ideas, and my enthusiasm was immediately dampened.

Guo Feng was immediately deflated. He said to Li Cheng with a hint of sarcasm, "Boss, you called me over so early in the morning just to listen to this junior brother's 'get something for nothing' act?"

Watch your words!

Li Cheng retorted, "What do you mean by 'getting something for nothing'? President Shen promised you an annual salary of 600,000, and you're still not satisfied?"

This book was first published on 2020s.com, providing you with a reading experience free of errors and disordered chapters.

Guo Feng seemed a bit intimidated by Li Cheng, and didn't continue arguing with him. Instead, he turned to Shen Fei and said, "Junior brother, I'm not targeting you, but you've just graduated, and your company has only been established for less than three months. What makes you think you can make virtual IPs? Even if you're a rich second-generation, and you can afford to pay us a month's salary, what about a year? Is the money your parents give you enough to burn? Are you just going to beg for money with your mouth?"

"This guy is definitely a bit of a troublemaker."

Shen Fei thought to himself.

The conversation was going well, and Li Cheng was quite enthusiastic, but Guo Feng's arrival unexpectedly started to create trouble.

If Shen Fei had other suitable candidates, Guo Feng wouldn't be able to get in, but Shen Fei currently doesn't have any other candidates.

To build a successful virtual IP, Li Cheng couldn't do it alone, so he couldn't very well tell people to leave.

However, troublemakers are not without their uses. Sometimes, when a new leader is parachuted into a company, he or she boosts his or her authority by suppressing troublemakers.

"Senior brother," Shen Fei said calmly, unperturbed by the mockery, "You don't understand my company, so what makes you think we have nothing?"

Shen Fei's reaction surprised Guo Feng, who was about to speak.

Shen Fei deliberately spoke first, interrupting, "The three essential elements for company development are capital, connections, and market. I feel I have none of them."

"Yeah?"

Guo Feng began to seriously examine this junior who had just graduated, and then glanced at Li Cheng.

Li Cheng remained silent, seemingly intending to let him test his junior brother's abilities.

Guo Feng shifted his hips somewhat awkwardly: "Then tell me, what exactly do you have?"

Shen Fei smiled and said, "Senior brother, you should think about what you need me to demonstrate first."

"I......"

Guo Feng was met with a rebuff and was momentarily speechless, realizing that although this junior brother looked young, he was very good at playing the game of tai chi.

However, after calming down, he also thought that since he started his own business right after graduation, his family must have some money.

I know classmates like this. They flaunt their family's wealth, and everyone at school and workplace dislikes them. They have terrible interpersonal relationships.

Guo Feng glanced around and suddenly noticed a news report playing on the television screen outside the glass window.

"...Recently, the highly anticipated selection of Shanghai's Top Ten Young Entrepreneurs came to a close. Among them, Chen Xi, the 24-year-old founder of the traditional Chinese style brand Xiyun, unfortunately failed to make the list due to obstacles in the expansion of his brand's offline channels and a broken capital chain, causing an uproar in the industry..."

The screen showed a photo of Chen Xi attending a business forum.

She wore a well-fitting black suit, her long hair was slightly wavy, and she had a cool and aloof demeanor, exuding an innate pride.

Guo Feng immediately thought of a brilliant way to strike back at his junior brother. Chen Xi was so beautiful; this kind of goddess must be pursued by many boys. She was arrogant and didn't care about anyone.

The junior brother in front of her was probably the type of boy she hated the most.

Most importantly, Chen Xi's mother is from Anyuan County and is currently in Shanghai, which can shut Shen Fei up.

So Guo Feng said, "As a senior brother, what do I need you, a junior brother, to show off? Saying too much would be like bullying you."

How about this?

Guo Feng said casually, "Since you say you have plenty of connections, there's someone named Chen Xi, who is one of the top ten young entrepreneurs in Shanghai, and her mother is from Anyuan County. Could you call her over?"

If it weren't Shen Fei standing here today, no one in Anyuan County would have been able to complete this task.

But it was Shen Fei.

Ning Wei's expression turned somewhat strange after hearing this.
