Chapter 202 Chen Chulin is actually still a student?
At this moment, Qin Kun nodded and said, "Live streaming? Relying on those pretentious internet celebrities? Old Ye, I'm not trying to be pessimistic, but this stuff looks exciting, but how much real money can it generate? It's low-class stuff, how much of a stir can it make? Even if you have money, you can't just burn it like this!"
He took a swig of his drink and continued, "The film and television industry is something worth considering; at least it's a legitimate industry. But the live streaming industry is too murky. I know a few companies that have poured a lot of money into it, and now they're kicking themselves and complaining to me all the time."
Ye Fan simply smiled calmly and did not rush to argue.
Given their current limited understanding, how could they possibly foresee the astonishing commercial power that these seemingly low-brow internet celebrities would unleash on Douyin in the next few years?
The live-streaming e-commerce craze will sweep everything, reshape consumption patterns, and create countless wealth myths.
Even ordinary MCN agencies are making a fortune.
The tides of the times are surging forward; only by going with the flow can one rise to great heights.
As someone once said, if you stand in the right place at the right time, even a pig can fly.
But few people mention that if you miss the opportune moment, even a pig that flies will crash and be smashed to pieces.
Very few people are able to keenly seize those fleeting opportunities.
If they knew that Ye Fan had already invested in ByteDance, they would be even more shocked, but he wouldn't say such a thing, at least not now.
Fang Yu then asked several more questions about investment direction and specific strategies, all of which Ye Fan deftly deflected with a tactful and subtle approach.
This subtle and reserved attitude made Fang Yu feel like he was being scratched by a cat's claws, itchy but helpless.
He could only sigh in the end and said helplessly, "Alright... If you need any help, just let us know. We brothers may not have any other skills, but in this little corner of Jinling, we can still save you some trouble."
Ye Fan smiled and nodded: "Thanks, I'll definitely trouble you if I need anything."
Fang Yu then added, "If any promising opportunities come up later, I'll get involved too, and we brothers can all get a share. You wouldn't mind, would you?"
Ye Fan laughed heartily upon hearing this, his tone cheerful and generous: "Of course I have no problem with that. We can make money together. There's no end to making money. Just don't look down on my makeshift team later."
This statement instantly put Fang Yu, Qin Kun, and the others at ease, and relaxed smiles appeared on their faces.
The atmosphere at the dinner table reached its peak, and then gradually came to an end.
......
The night breeze was slightly cool inside the parking lot.
Ye Fan has become the absolute core of this temporary small circle.
Qin Kun and Fang Yu stood naturally on his left and right, and when they spoke or made suggestions, their eyes would always subconsciously glance at Ye Fan first to seek his opinion.
This subtle shift in status is fully reflected in every gesture and movement.
Qin Kun, with his arm around the stylishly dressed young model beside him, yawned and asked, "Shall we continue to the next show, or...?"
Ye Fan glanced at the time, shook his head, and said, "Never mind, I'll go back and rest first. I have class tomorrow, let's get together again next time."
His face carried a just-right hint of weariness befitting a student.
Fang Yu chimed in, "Yeah, I also have some things to take care of tonight. Lao Qin, let's go get that vintage wine at the bar another day. I should probably be going now."
Qin Kun naturally had no objection and agreed with a smile.
Ye Fan led Chen Chulin to his car.
When the understated black Audi A4L came into view, Chen Chulin, sitting in the passenger seat, felt a sense of surprise.
How come such a top-tier young master drives an Audi A4? It's not that the A4 is bad, but the difference in quality feels too great.
She couldn't help but steal a glance at the unfathomable young man beside her.
"What's wrong? What are you thinking about?" Ye Fan keenly noticed her slight distraction and asked casually.
Chen Chulin's heart skipped a beat. She quickly looked away and shook her head in a slightly flustered manner, "No...it's nothing!"
She was somewhat annoyed by her loss of composure.
Ye Fan started the car and casually asked, "Where do you live? I'll take you home."
"Jinling Academy of Arts, thank you, Young Master Ye." Chen Chulin quickly gave the address.
"Oh?"
His hand, which was turning the steering wheel, paused slightly. He glanced at her, his eyes filled with obvious surprise. "You're still a student?"
Chen Chulin nodded, her voice soft: "Yes, I just started my senior year this September."
Ye Fan's inner thoughts: Wow, that's awesome! Old Qin is amazing! He actually found an art student who was still in school?
He genuinely didn't know Chen Chulin was a student before, but considering the special nature of the art academy and the "screening mechanism" of the yacht party, it wasn't hard to understand.
Ye Fan snapped out of his thoughts and said, "Okay!"
The car drove smoothly toward Jinling Academy of Arts.
The car eventually stopped at a relatively quiet side gate of the art academy, away from the hustle and bustle of the main road.
The light from the streetlights filtered through the leaves, casting dappled shadows inside the car.
"We've arrived." Ye Fan stopped the car.
"Thank you for bringing me back, Young Master Ye." Chen Chulin unbuckled her seatbelt and prepared to get out of the car, feeling a strange sense of loss and uncertainty.
Is this the end of this extraordinary adventure?
"Wait a minute." Ye Fan's voice made her pause.
He simply took out his phone and casually displayed a WeChat QR code: "Add me on WeChat. Let's contact each other if needed."
Chen Chulin was instantly filled with immense joy and quickly took out her phone to scan the QR code and add the contact.
Her fingertips trembled slightly with excitement.
Ye Fan took her phone and smoothly operated it a few times, seemingly checking something.
A moment later, he handed the phone back to her, his tone flat and indifferent: "All done."
As soon as Chen Chulin took the phone, the screen lit up with a notification from the bank's app: "[China Construction Bank] Your account ending in XXXX received a deposit of RMB 100 million on [Date] at [Time]. Available balance..."
The long string of zeros that followed instantly left Chen Chulin's mind blank!
She stared wide-eyed in disbelief at the screen, repeatedly checking the number of zeros.
One million? A whole million?
The enormous impact left her completely stunned. Several seconds passed before a wave of ecstasy washed over her!
She made the right bet!
This choice completely changed the trajectory of her life!
She knows she will graduate next year and is filled with confusion and anxiety about the future.
Only after being strongly persuaded by a senior student with "extensive connections" in the student union did she reluctantly and nervously attend the yacht party.
The struggle between going and not going almost exhausted all her courage.
And now, that courage has been rewarded in ways that are beyond imagination!
