A song from Chengdu revived a closed-down pub.

Su Fan was unaware that when he spoke to Ye Yao on the phone, the entire Ye family was at the old house.

To make it easier to view the information, Ye Yao turned on the speakerphone and placed her phone on the coffee table.

Therefore, everyone present could clearly hear the two's discussion about product launch, channel selection, central warehousing, and data metrics.

From the height and firmness of pillows to the regional and seasonal differences in comforter fillings.

From inventory control to after-sales responsibility.

From guest purchase conversion to the impact of bedding on hotel repeat stay rates.

Su Fan went through almost all the potential problems that might arise after the project went live.

After the phone call ended, the living room remained quiet for a while.

Ye Yao picked up her phone and turned to look at everyone: "Did you all hear that?"

No one answered immediately.

Ye Sicheng leaned back on the sofa, his fingers tapping lightly on the armrest, the shock on his face still not completely gone.

As a manager of Tengfei Group, he understood better than anyone else what Su Fan's words meant.

Coming up with a good idea can perhaps be summed up as a flash of inspiration.

But what Su Fan just talked about was more than just an idea.

Instead, it created a complete business loop for the entire project.

He can quickly pinpoint the key issues, even those that are still being debated within the group.

After a moment, Ye Sicheng slowly sighed and said, "Xiao Fan's greatest strength is not that he thought of selling bedding in hotels, but that he knew why this project could be established and where to start. He didn't just look at how much money he could make after the project succeeded; he also thought in advance about how to control losses if the data was not ideal."

Everyone present nodded in agreement upon hearing this.

People who truly run a business never consider only profits.

How much capital is needed for the project, what losses will occur if it fails, and how to validate the direction in the early stages are all equally important.

An undisguised pride gradually surfaced in Ye Wangcheng's expression: "He's never run a hotel before, nor has he ever dealt in home textiles. How come he's so familiar with these things?"

Ye Sicheng shook his head with a wry smile: "That's what I don't understand. He's not just familiar with a particular industry, but he can quickly see how different industries can be connected. Hotels have guest rooms, Dianping has transaction portals, and Tengfei has supply chains and membership systems. These things have always existed, but no one has ever thought of putting them together."

Ye Beichen sat in the main seat, his gaze falling on the documents Ye Yao had compiled: "Although this project is only a pilot project now, if it can really run smoothly, it can become an independent business line for Tengfei in the future."

Ye Sicheng nodded repeatedly: "Xiao Fan explained everything clearly in just one phone call, issues that would have taken us at least several meetings to figure out. We used to think that handing over Tengfei Group to him would give him a platform to showcase his abilities, but now it seems that we placed too much importance on Tengfei. With his vision, whether or not Tengfei Group is handed over to him is not that important. Even if he doesn't join Tengfei, he can still see opportunities that we can't."

Everyone else thought there was nothing wrong with what he said.

Finally, Ye Beichen said, "Xiao Yao, you will be in charge of this project. If you don't understand anything, please ask Xiao Fan for advice."

……

If the Ye family is preparing for a new project...

Then there's another person who wasn't idle either.

This person is Sun Zheng from Beifeng Entertainment.

Ever since his last conversation with Su Fan, Sun Zheng had been pondering what he had said.

At first, he was somewhat hesitant.

After all, Beifeng Entertainment is the culmination of his many years of hard work, and it's not an easy thing for him to completely let go of it.

But as Su Fan continued to make a fuss, Sun Zheng's initial hesitation gradually disappeared.

What others saw was that Su Fan wrote several good songs and created a wildly popular travel live stream.

What Sun Zheng saw was that Su Fan had quietly connected content, traffic, platforms, cultural tourism, and commercial monetization.

Especially the Tengfei Group.

Originally, they had been pushed to the forefront of public opinion, but Su Fan simply took his people out for a stroll, and Tengfei's hotels and cultural tourism projects returned to the public eye.

This grasp of the market and people's hearts cannot be simply described as talent.

Sun Zheng became increasingly certain that what Su Fan had said to him back then was not just a casual remark.

Since that was the case, Sun Zheng did not hesitate any longer.

He began to gradually reduce his holdings in Beifeng Entertainment.

To avoid attracting attention, the entire process was carried out with great care.

Every time, they pretend to be forced to do something, and when they reduce their shareholdings, they act as if they are furious.

In short, it gives the impression that he was forced into it.

So, when it comes to acting skills, these entrepreneurs are miles ahead of those actors.

At the same time, he also began to inquire about the situation in the animation industry.

During this period, Sun Zheng came into contact with many companies.

Some have projects in hand, but lack a mature production team.

Some have excellent technical skills, but their management is a complete mess.

There are also several companies that keep talking about building the number one domestic animation brand, but they can't even produce a single complete work.

After looking at more than a dozen companies, Sun Zheng finally set his sights on an animation company called Shan Hai Ying Hua.

This company is not large; it has only been established for five years.

The entire team consists of only a dozen or so people.

Over the years, they have mainly undertaken animation outsourcing for other companies and have done many high-quality projects. However, due to limited funds and channels, they have never had the opportunity to create their own works.

The company's financial situation is not good either.

The former boss staked his money on two original projects, but one failed to pass the review, and the other was halfway done when the investors suddenly withdrew their funding, directly dragging the company's cash flow to the brink of collapse.

If it weren't for the core members of the team gritting their teeth and holding on, this company would probably have collapsed long ago.

To outsiders, Shan Hai Pictures has a lot of problems.

But what Sun Zheng valued was precisely the group of people it had left behind.

The basic framework is complete, including director, key animator, storyboard artist, 3D modeler, and post-production team.

Most importantly, although the company wasn't doing very well, it didn't have many messy factions inside.

As long as funding is available and they are given a reliable project, the team can quickly get back up and running.

After several rounds of negotiations, Sun Zheng finally acquired 80% of the shares of Shan Hai Pictures.

The original founders retained a small number of shares and continued to be responsible for the company's production operations.

After the acquisition, handover, and personnel reassurance were all completed, Sun Zheng called Su Fan.
