Chapter 492 Ye Fan's advance planning is paying off!
After a brief, breathtaking silence, the music suddenly surges! The scene changes to:
Travel experiences shared by Weiming users have garnered millions of likes;
The smiles of artisans as they livestream the creation of handicrafts;
Young netizens left enthusiastic comments under intangible cultural heritage videos, asking for courses to be offered.
The progress bar for the crowdfunding campaign to restore the ancient building is growing rapidly...
The narration then shifts to a declaration filled with hope and strength:
"Come, Weiming!"
Share the little things in life, so that you're never alone in feeling touched.
Record the beauty of the world, and let passion find its way home.
Weiming App – Connecting every worthwhile moment, ensuring happiness and love endure.
This promotional video, which combines top-notch copywriting, stunning visuals, soulful music, and precise editing, was officially released by the Weiming official account at the golden moment when the "Ye Fan craze" reached its boiling point!
The operations team, which had been preparing for this moment, instantly launched a top-level, all-encompassing "land, sea, and air" bombardment:
Within the Weiming App: splash screen GG, homepage pinned focus image, strong push notifications to all users' information streams, and precise delivery of push messages.
External collaboration: Dozens of signed celebrities and top internet influencers simultaneously reposted the content, forming a phenomenal dissemination matrix.
Media coverage: Press releases from technology, finance, and culture media outlets, which were communicated in advance, were released simultaneously, interpreting the brand's deeper meaning behind the promotional video.
A nuclear bomb has been detonated! The effects are terrifying!
The promotional video was released in just ten minutes.
The hashtag #WeimingRecordsBeautifulMoments# quickly rose to the top of the Weiming App's trending topics list!
Within half an hour, it topped the trending charts on major mainstream platforms! The number of views, reposts, and comments soared exponentially, putting immense pressure on the servers.
More importantly, this well-produced and visionary promotional video serves as a guiding light, clearly demonstrating to all users and the entire industry the future direction of the Weiming App:
It is not just a place for entertainment and leisure.
It is also a broad platform for recording the pulse of the times, empowering individual value, and safeguarding cultural heritage!
This led to a profound and strategic leap in users' perception of Weiming.
......
With the help of the towering waves of its brand promotional video, the Weiming App, a giant ship carrying a grand vision, has officially and powerfully sailed into the vast ocean of public attention!
The existing user base of tens of millions of users, like molten lava finding a breakthrough, saw registrations surge wildly under the catalysis of this unprecedented wave of popularity!
The server alarms became the most pleasant background noise in the R&D center.
Ye Fan stood in front of the huge floor-to-ceiling window in his office, overlooking the city's dazzling lights, his fingertips unconsciously tapping on the cold glass.
There was no ecstasy in his eyes, only a profound tranquility that seemed to have settled down.
It became.
From now on, the name Weiming will no longer be just a simple application, but the pioneer and definer of this short video social era.
Its foundation and status are now completely unshakeable.
However, Ye Fan's game was far from over.
The tremendous success of Weiming was like a boulder thrown into a calm lake, stirring not only the enthusiasm of users but also awakening countless covetous capital giants.
Astute investment institutions and internet giants have finally seen the astonishing potential and terrifying speed of the short video market!
In a short time, countless "short video projects" were urgently launched in the conference rooms of various companies, and development teams were required to work "at all costs" and "day and night" to catch up.
But Ye Fan was no longer a player who passively waited.
Just before the filming of Weiming's promotional video, a secret project codenamed "Swarm" was quietly launched under Liu Ruyan's meticulous planning.
She took the core framework provided by Ye Fan and the proven successful gameplay of Weiming, especially the core interaction logic of short videos and the prototype of the recommendation algorithm, and found Xiang Hao, a tech enthusiast.
"Director Xiang, you need to incubate several short video apps with slightly different positioning based on this framework in the shortest possible time."
Liu Ruyan's voice was calm and unquestionable as she pushed an encrypted USB drive in front of Xiang Hao.
Excitement gleamed in Xiang Hao's eyes, like a hungry cheetah spotting its prey: "Understood! With existing wheels, building a new car is quicker, isn't it?"
His elite development team was already used to Ye Fan's "impossible mission" pace.
After receiving the requirements, this group of tech fanatics immediately went into "seclusion" mode, drinking coffee like water and typing on their keyboards like a dense drumbeat, day and night.
Just a few days!
While outside investors were still scrambling to assemble teams and debating product direction, Xiang Hao's team magically launched five short video apps with distinct styles but a highly unified core!
They are designed for different user segments and content preferences.
Examples include "Xiaoka," which focuses on comedic short dramas; "Qiaoshou," which focuses on life skills; and "Xingguang Show," which showcases talents.
Like five sharp arrows ready to be released, they were quietly launched simultaneously on major app stores through a shared powerful backend server and some data interfaces!
This "five arrows fired simultaneously" was like preemptively blasting open five huge landing points in front of the capital army that was about to enter the market!
The investors and internet companies that were originally eager to make a big splash were completely dumbfounded when they saw several fully functional and familiar apps suddenly appearing in the app store.
"Holy crap?! What's going on?"
"Who...who did this? They were incredibly fast!"
"The micro-ring just exploded, and now five more people have appeared to divide the cake?"
A strong sense of hesitation and anxiety quickly spread among the investors who were observing the situation.
When it comes to following trends and seizing opportunities, speed is key!
Like vultures on the African savanna, they must pounce on their prey when it is at its freshest, otherwise they won't even get a hot bite.
But now?
Five vultures had already pounced on the plump prey called "Short Video" and were tearing it apart with great gusto!
By the time your team finally manages to assemble and sharpen their weapons before charging in, how much meat will be left?
Even if there are only scraps left, facing five fierce opponents who have already established themselves and may all have the same "beast tamer" behind them, can they still manage to snatch anything?
Can we still compete?
The enormous uncertainty and high cost of trial and error have made many initially confident investors hesitant.
Even the Penguin Empire, known for its "imitation + capital" approach and its habit of striking back later, has experienced fierce internal debates.
The radicals: "We must get involved! Develop our own technology immediately! Invest heavily! We can't miss the next traffic source!"
The conservatives (who ultimately prevailed): "Developing our own products is too risky, and the return on investment is unclear. There are already five mature products and the behemoth that is MicroMing. Why don't we... wait until the situation becomes clearer, see which one shows signs of breaking through, and then directly invest in or acquire it! We'll use the power of capital to participate in the battle, instead of personally engaging in hand-to-hand combat."
This decision, given Penguin's past successes, is undoubtedly prudent and consistent with its "ecosystem layout" approach.
From a rational analytical perspective, this doesn't seem wrong.
