"First, the first question: What are my thoughts on the Ministry of Education launching the Education Network APP and the 'Double Reduction' policy and a series of other policies?

My thoughts are that I am very happy and honored. After all, I have eliminated a lot of unnecessary formalism with the Handwriting Robot, successfully freeing many teachers and students from suffering."

As for whether I resent the Ministry of Education, I do not. Because people living in this world should not only focus on money, and success is not defined by others, but by oneself.

My dream is to explore the truths of the universe, to research and develop things I like, and I even want to build a spaceship to explore the solar system and the Milky Way. In this process, money is just a tool for me to achieve my goals.

So, for me, earning ten thousand more or ten thousand less doesn't really matter. Compared to my grand goals, this amount of money is just a drop in the bucket."

"Holy cow, that's amazing! He wants to build a spaceship to explore the solar system and the Milky Way?"

"I get it now, Lin Feng is China's Musk!"

"So impressive, he doesn't even care about losing tens of thousands in profit a month."

Everyone who heard Lin Feng's words was amazed by his dream of exploring the truths of the universe, researching and developing items, and building a spaceship for space exploration.

Although they knew that Lin Feng definitely couldn't build a spaceship to explore the solar system and the Milky Way.

But to have it as a dream and to act on it is already incredible, surpassing 99% of people in the world. Many people only dare to think about it but not do it.

But at this moment, Lin Feng didn't wait for them to continue being shocked. He just continued speaking on his own.

"Speaking of which, you might not know, but after more than half a month of hard work, the Coin-style Electromagnetic Rifle was finally developed and assembled yesterday afternoon.

The relevant technical patents were also applied for through the online patent application channel yesterday.

As for the actual combat test video, I will finish filming it in the next two days and upload it directly to Bilibili. Remember to watch it."

"Holy crap, they already came up with the second-generation Coin-style Electromagnetic Rifle so quickly?"

"Is that true? It was developed in just over half a month? Are you sure you're not kidding?"

"I think it's probably just some practical small improvements to the previous first-generation Coin-style Electromagnetic Rifle. In essence, it's still the second-generation Coin-style Electromagnetic Rifle."

The vast majority of the bullet comments did not believe how powerful Lin Feng's second-generation Coin-style Electromagnetic Rifle was.

They just thought that this so-called second-generation Coin-style Electromagnetic Rifle was just a product with minor improvements, not a major upgrade or improvement.

Some netizens even directly exclaimed that it shouldn't be called the second-generation Coin-style Electromagnetic Rifle, but rather the 1.1-generation Coin-style Electromagnetic Rifle.

After all, if such a small improvement is called the second generation, then in a few years it will become the sixtieth generation Coin-style Electromagnetic Rifle, which would be awkward.

Facing such dissenting and pessimistic comments, Lin Feng frowned slightly, but ultimately didn't say much more.

Because it was meaningless. Without concrete evidence, it was better to wait for his actual test video to be released before telling them how powerful the second-generation Coin-style Electromagnetic Rifle was.

With that thought, Lin Feng shifted the topic to the recommendation algorithm.

"Speaking of which, most of you probably don't know that Bilibili and I have a gambling agreement."

"Gambling agreement?"

"What's a gambling agreement?"

"What did you gamble on?"

Facing Lin Feng's words, the live stream was filled with confused and bewildered bullet comments.

Facing the confused netizens, and seeing that the number of viewers in the live stream had quietly surpassed the 2.5 million mark as time passed, Lin Feng smiled and said:

"As you all know, since Bilibili was founded in 2009, it has always adhered to an ad-free development strategy. For the past 4 years, it has been operating at a loss, right?

During these four years, the Bilibili operations team has tried countless methods, but all have yielded little success, and it has consistently operated at a loss.

The reason Bilibili can survive without collapsing is entirely due to continuous financing for its development.

While financing can support Bilibili's development and operations, it ultimately comes at the cost of equity. Facing this situation, the Bilibili operations team is naturally very anxious.

So, more than half a month ago, Xu Yi, the founder of Bilibili, came all the way to my home to negotiate because he wanted to secure the rights to my videos and live streams.

During the negotiation, I also understood Bilibili's predicament. In the end, with my persuasive skills, we reached a gambling agreement.

In this gambling agreement, I need to come up with a plan to make Bilibili profitable within six months and to a point where the website no longer needs financing for its own development within two years.

If my plan achieves the above goals, I will receive 30% of the shares. If I fail, the 30% of shares will be returned to the original shareholders."

Hearing Lin Feng's words, the 2.5 million netizens in the live stream were all stunned, completely not expecting that Lin Feng and Bilibili had such a history.

Speaking of which, the bosses of Bilibili were truly crazy to be willing to stake 30% of their shares with Lin Feng, not afraid of Lin Feng failing and being heavily exploited by him.

"Of course, in addition to coming up with a profitable development plan, I also need to create a recommendation algorithm. This recommendation algorithm will be licensed to Bilibili for 10 years.

I am currently preparing to develop the recommendation algorithm, while the profitable development plan has already been completed, and many measures are already being implemented.

For example, our major revamp of the Bilibili webpage and app, the addition of graphic ads on mobile and web versions, and our newly added live streaming platform...

These are all part of the implemented profitable development plans. There are still some plans that have not been implemented, but you will definitely see what those profitable plans are in the next few months."

"So that's how it is."

The more than 2.5 million netizens in the live stream nodded in realization, finally understanding why the Bilibili page and app had suddenly undergone major changes in the past two days.

It turned out that the reason for everything was Lin Feng. However, they soon became interested in the recommendation algorithm mentioned by Lin Feng.

After all, Lin Feng had placed this recommendation algorithm alongside the profitable development plan. Could the value of this recommendation algorithm be comparable to the profitable development plan?

As doubts arose in people's minds, Lin Feng seemed to know their thoughts and directly said:

"You might all be wondering why I'm emphasizing the recommendation algorithm and placing it on par with the profit development plan.

Let's put it this way: I personally believe my profit development plan is worth 10% of Bilibili's shares, while the 10-year authorization for the recommendation algorithm is worth 20% of Bilibili's shares!"

"Whoa!"

The livestream chat erupted in an uproar upon hearing Lin Feng's words. Everyone stared at Lin Feng in disbelief, wondering if he had lost his mind.

Just a recommendation algorithm, and Lin Feng was claiming it was worth 20% of Bilibili's shares, and that was only for a 10-year usage license!
