Not Short of Money (First Update)

Not Short of Money (First Update)

After watching the property management staff and Fan Yu leave, Su Qing finally turned and left.

Being able to drive a luxury car worth tens of millions tonight was enough to make her proud.

Fan Yu was woken up in the morning by the system's check-in notification.

"Ding, today's check-in has begun."

"Check in."

Although his head hurt badly, Fan Yu had not forgotten about checking in.

"Ding, check-in successful. The host has obtained one Imperial Courtyard in Shengjing."

"Wait, what? An Imperial Courtyard?"

Still somewhat dizzy, Fan Yu's mind instantly cleared when he heard the system's voice.

Courtyards in Shengjing were already priceless and rarely available. Anyone who owned an authentic courtyard was someone of distinguished status.

Yet the courtyard granted by the system was an Imperial Courtyard. It was absolutely one of the finest courtyards in Shengjing, perhaps the best one right at the foot of the imperial city.

After recovering his senses and suppressing the shock in his heart, Fan Yu checked the time, got up, and washed up.

Thinking carefully about what had happened last night, he could not help shaking his head.

He had spent nearly a million at Splendid Years last night.

He had paid for the entire night's expenses at Splendid Years, and the alcohol alone had cost nearly two hundred thousand per bottle. He had no idea how many bottles they had drunk.

In any case, he could no longer remember much of what had happened after leaving Splendid Years.

After washing up, he went to the kitchen and ate something simple. Then the phone on the table rang.

He picked it up and saw that it was a notification from the designated driver platform.

The designated driver he had hired last night had already collected the commission.

The driving fee had been deducted directly from his card. Fan Yu did not care; it was only a small amount of money.

Just as he finished clearing the table, his phone rang again.

"Hello, is this the boss?"

A steady voice sounded from the other end.

Fan Yu replied, "Yes, it's me."

"Boss, do you have time now? Could you come to the company?" Ping Wen asked.

"I do. What is it?"

"The APP platform has been preliminarily completed. Please come take a look."

"Alright, I'll head over now."

After casually changing into a set of clothes, Fan Yu drove to the company.

The moment he arrived, Ping Wen came forward to greet him, his expression excited.

"Boss, the platform is complete. Please inspect it."

Fan Yu walked over to the computer and looked at the series of data displayed on the screen, his head beginning to ache.

"Introduce it to me."

Ping Wen said, "Boss, although our system is not completely stable yet, it can already be put into use. The system's monitoring capabilities will adjust according to the APP platform's daily active user count."

"As for the video recording system, it should already be very well developed. There should be no lagging or illegal operations."

Fan Yu nodded. Seeing the bloodshot eyes of Ping Wen, he said, "You've worked hard. Go get some proper rest. I still need to prepare the promotional channels and advertisements. Once you've rested, I'll have an even tougher task for you."

Ping Wen knew that what came next would be the most difficult stage, so he said nothing more and turned to rest.

Platform promotion was the hardest initial stage for an internet company. It required traffic acquisition and advertising.

But while that was a difficult problem for a newly launched internet platform, it was very simple for Fan Yu.

Spend money.

The two hottest internet platforms right now were Kuaishou and Douyin.

As long as he could afford to spend, those two platforms would be enough to increase the daily active users of the National Fitness APP.

He had Liu Jian contact Kuaishou and Douyin to discuss promotional arrangements.

The promotion fees on those two platforms were astronomical, but Fan Yu did not care.

After the expensive advertising fees were paid, they only received three days of promotion. After that, the two platforms would no longer promote the National Fitness APP.

Leaving Liu Jian in charge of negotiations with Kuaishou and Douyin, Fan Yu called Lin Cong at the National Fitness Club.

"Boss."

Lin Cong answered the phone respectfully.

"Put up an advertisement for a platform at the club."

National Fitness Club.

Lin Cong personally supervised the scene, having the staff put up National Fitness APP advertising posters throughout the club.

Advertisements also began playing on the electronic screens.

By then, Ping Wen and the others had already woken up that afternoon. Fan Yu said, "I've arranged the promotional matters. The rest is up to you."

Ping Wen was excited. "Alright, Boss."

The backend program started up, and Ping Wen sat solemnly before the computer, waiting for the platform's daily active user data to be detected.

The company's facilities had long since been fully equipped under Fan Yu's heavy investment.

Fan Yu said to Ping Wen, "Promotion alone isn't enough. We also need something eye-catching enough to draw people in."

"Boss, what do you have in mind?"

Ping Wen asked.

"Every user who registers on the National Fitness APP can receive a ten-yuan cash reward. If they invite a verified user to register, they can receive a one-yuan reward. However, the same identity cannot register multiple accounts."

"Anyone whose daily online time on the APP reaches a certain amount can enter a small cash prize draw."

"Any work that exceeds ten thousand views can receive a five-hundred-yuan bonus. However, malicious data manipulation is prohibited. Once discovered, the reward will be canceled and the account will be banned."

"That's all for now. We can add more later if needed."

Fan Yu spoke slowly.

After hearing Fan Yu's words, Ping Wen and the other employees could not help clicking their tongues. Their boss was truly generous. This whole plan would burn through a lot of money, wouldn't it?

"Boss, how much will this cost?"

"This is only the initial stage of building our APP platform. Do we really need to pay such a huge price?" Ping Wen asked, somewhat distressed.

Fan Yu patted Ping Wen on the shoulder. "Just do as I say. Your boss isn't short on this little bit of money. If we're doing it, we'll do it right."

"Besides, the APP may gradually transform later on. Once we have enough daily active users, it will develop into an all-purpose video social platform, like Kuaishou and Douyin. But we've only just entered the internet industry, so we need to proceed step by step."

"Yes, Boss."

Ping Wen regained his composure, stood up, and clapped his hands. "Everyone, you heard the boss. Get to work."

In an instant, everyone in the company became busy. Anran was especially focused as she operated the system and began adding those promotional benefits.

Fan Yu sat down to the side, took out his phone, and began searching through Douyin.

A streamer who specialized in fitness livestreams caught his eye.

Fan Yu entered her livestream room and immediately sent an Emperor gift package.

Seeing the gifts flooding the screen, the streamer hurriedly shouted, "Thank you, Brother Feng, for the gifts!"

The viewers flooded the chat, all praising Fan Yu's extravagant spending.

Fan Yu smiled faintly and sent the streamer a private message through the backend.

The streamer quickly replied.

"Hello, have you considered switching platforms?"

The streamer replied, "Switching platforms? Brother Feng, what platform is it?"

Although the streamer had not originally intended to switch platforms, Fan Yu's lavish spending made her respond seriously.

"The National Fitness APP, a platform specifically built for fitness. If you join that platform, you can sign a contract with the company. Your annual base salary will be one million, and you can keep seventy percent of the gifts you receive."

The streamer had not given it much thought at first and had only replied because Fan Yu had sent her gifts. But when she saw his private message, her heart jolted in surprise.

"Are you serious?"

The streamer asked eagerly.

Fan Yu said, "Of course. We can sign a contract, and once it's signed, the salary can be paid out immediately."

With one million guaranteed upon signing the contract, the streamer naturally had no reason to refuse.

After reaching an agreement, the two added each other's contact information.
