Chapter 616: Fan Meili attacks the beauty industry
“…The most fundamental factor that determines the development of the film and television industry is still good works. We must work hard on good works, improve the quality of creation, enhance the two benefits, guide high-quality resources to high-quality projects, and increase the output rate of works…”

When Wei Yang, who was wearing a Zhongshan suit and glasses, finished his speech, applause broke out in the conference room and on the podium.

Photographers on the scene frequently took shots. Official meetings have never attracted much attention from the public, but this time a super top star came and could have taken advantage of the popularity.

The Prime Minister who presided over the meeting specifically chatted with Wei Yang for a few words, and also talked about the "Detective Chinatown 2" which is still in theaters. He encouraged Wei Yang to continue to focus on creating content and promote the healthy and stable development of the film and television industry.

The meaning is very clear, except for the sentence "Wei Yang or Blue Whale should set an example and take the lead" being said.

Wei Yang has participated in many high-end conferences, and this is not the first time he has met this person, but this is the first time he has been personally evaluated and talked to.

While being flattered, it also reflects on the strong performance and fairly good reputation of the Blue Whale series on both the small and big screens in the past two years. It has become an industry leader recognized even by the official authorities.

Even if giants like Wanda, Alibaba and Penguin entered the market, it did not have any real impact on the status of Blue Whale.

This time, Wei Yang is not only a representative of the film and television industry, but also a well-deserved leader.

When the meeting is over, there are still reporters eager to interview him, maybe he can even become a hot topic.

However, Boss Wei felt that he had attracted too much attention just now, so he deliberately kept a low profile and left with the crowd, taking the meeting minutes book with him.

...

An Audi A6 slowly drove into Jiuzhang Villa. Fat Fan heard the noise and came out wearing a windbreaker.

"Why did you change the car?"

"It's a meeting, and you brought a Maybach Bentley over. Aren't you just asking for trouble?"

If Wei Yang didn't think it was too much, he would have wanted to buy a Magotan or Passat. He originally wanted to change to a Hongqi, but was afraid that it might be a bit ostentatious, so he changed to the most ordinary Audi.

Fatty Fan was speechless: "Do you really need to do that?"

"You never go too far wrong."

Wei Yang always puts caution first. Besides, changing a car is not a big deal, so there is no need to be lazy. Details determine success or failure, and many people fail because of trivial matters.

Stepping into the room, Wei Yang glanced at the living room, which was empty, and asked curiously, "Where's your brother?"

Fatty Fan took the coat that Wei Yang had taken off and put it on the hanger at the entrance: "My classmate asked him out. I don't know how addicted he is. He goes out every day in the middle of winter."

"Are you in love?"

Wei Yang made a heart shape with his hands. When he was this age, he liked to play with female classmates. Fat Fan was stunned for a moment, not quite sure.

"I don't think so. He doesn't seem to be very smart. He just stays in his room playing games every day."

"You're almost seventeen. Normally, you'd be going to college soon. You're in puberty, so you should pay attention to it."

Wei Yang doesn't care whether his brother-in-law falls in love early or not, but it's okay for him to have a relationship as long as nothing gets out of hand. It would be a lot of fun if his son could have a cousin of the same age.

Fatty Fan nodded, then got a little angry again: "Let him do whatever he wants, I can't control him."

Wei Yang didn't take it seriously. In the past two years, whenever his brother-in-law Fan Chengcheng was mentioned, Fatty Fan rarely had a good face.

It’s not that Fat Fan has a bad temper, it’s just that his brother-in-law can be a bit troublesome.

He went abroad to study at the age of 15. His family originally arranged for him to study in the UK and study seriously, but he insisted on learning basketball and went to the United States. After hanging out for a while, he found that his sports talent was limited, so he changed his mind and went to South Korea to be a trainee.

In fact, when Fan Chengcheng wanted to enter the entertainment industry, Fan Xiaopang was not particularly opposed.

After all, his sister and brother-in-law do have power in this area, and it would be better for them to help him than for him to mess around out there alone.

What made Fan Xiaopang angry was that Fan Chengcheng didn't listen to her arrangements.

If you really want to enter the entertainment industry, the most orthodox way is to apply to a drama school or a music school, study for a year or two, then arrange some resources, slowly emerge, and then increase support after you become a well-known face.

Most of the second-generation stars who aspire to this goal follow similar practices, and Fan Xiaopang also planned this for his younger brother.

As a result, Fan Chengcheng went to Korea to be a trainee without discussing it with her, clamoring to become an idol.

In Fan Xiaopang's opinion, this is like not taking the college entrance exam and going to a technical secondary school. Do you think he wouldn't get angry?
"You have an old-fashioned idea. Idols are the future trend. Look at Lu Han and those kids from Tfboys. Aren't they very popular?"

"As a young person, who doesn't want to become famous and admired at a young age? Your arrangement takes too long and doesn't guarantee fame."

Wei Yang saw clearly that his brother-in-law was not a person who could tolerate tempers, at least not at the moment, otherwise he would not have traveled across half the world.

Fan Xiaopang's arrangement is stable, but it takes too long, and there is no guarantee of fame. There are many second-generation stars who have neglected their fame.

Instead of doing this, you might as well try to be a trainee. The time cost is low and the rate of return is high. As for failure, the worst that can happen is that you just quit this job.

It is impossible for a child who is not yet an adult to have any long-term plans. Fat Fan is just thinking too far ahead.

"Who are you talking about is old?"

"Why can't I keep up with the thinking of young people?!"

However, Fat Fan did not argue with him about who was right between him and his brother. Instead, he seized on the words and started making a big fuss about it.

Wei Yang was helpless. Although Fatty Fan was habitually making trouble, he didn't care.

Fat Fan is indeed a little irritable these days!

At first, Boss Wei thought she was pregnant and had a problem with hormone secretion, but later he found out that it might be just pure emotional tension.

On the one hand, people are worried about pregnancy and childbirth, which is something most people who are preparing for pregnancy will have. Since Fan Xiaopang is older, he will naturally have more worries.

On the other hand, she was unable to conceive, which made her very upset. She even went to the hospital for a physical examination during the Spring Festival.

Wei Yang felt that Fan was a little too anxious. At most, she had been trying to get pregnant for less than two months, which was still within the normal time range. Perhaps it was simply not the right time.

But Fan Xiaopang obviously did not have such a good attitude as him, especially when he unexpectedly learned that Zhao Liying checked to be pregnant after the Spring Festival, he became a little anxious.

Liu and Zhao were pregnant one after another. Fatty Fan no longer cared about other things. What she was worried about now was——

There's nothing wrong with Wei Yang, so is it her problem that she can't get pregnant?
I had a physical examination before, and no problems were found in my body. It was most likely due to my age, so Fat Fan is extremely sensitive about this aspect and gets angry easily.

"Okay, okay, I said the wrong thing. I'll talk to Cheng Cheng later and try to persuade you. Is there anything to eat at home? I'm hungry after the meeting."

Fan Xiaopang also knew that he was being unreasonable, so Wei Yang said a few soft words and the matter was over.

"My aunt and I left some food for you, just heat it up."

Wei Yang took a shower, changed into loose home clothes and arrived at the restaurant. When he saw the table full of dishes, tears came to his eyes.

"Tell me the truth, have you practiced some evil technique that absorbs Yang energy to kill me?"

There were steamed oysters, garlic oysters, mustard baked oysters, deep-fried oysters, etc. on the table. The whole table of oyster feast formed three big words - [Life and Death Game].

"Look how scared you are. Don't worry, I'm just trying to give you some nourishment." Fat Fan rolled her eyes at him. She didn't want to be a widow. Now that Liu and Zhao were both pregnant, Wei Yang was hers alone. There was no point in being anxious. She would just take it slowly.

"There's no need to take so much supplements. I'm afraid I'll get hurt."

Wei Yang couldn't help but complain. Actually, he quite likes eating oysters, but even if he likes them, he can't eat them like this.

He remembered that he loved eating dumplings when he was a child. At that time, a cheap dumpling shop opened on the street. To save trouble, his family bought him dumplings every day, which made him sick of eating them.

I vaguely remember that when he was in junior high school, he hardly ate dumplings except during the Chinese New Year. It was not until he was in high school that he gradually came to terms with this.

"Eat quickly. If you can't finish it, give it to my brother."

Fatty Fan treated Fan Chengcheng like a garbage can for leftovers. Wei Yang waved his hand and said, "Forget it. I still have a place to use my skills. It would be a waste for your brother to eat them."

Although he resisted verbally, Wei Yang put aside all distractions and ate the oysters happily.

Except for a dish of baked durian oysters which he didn't like, he ate most of the rest.

After the filming of "Dying to Survive" was completed, he has been busy losing weight. Except for the New Year's Eve dinner, he hasn't eaten so well in a long time. Fortunately, oysters are low-calorie meat, so he doesn't have to worry about his weight.

It is not clear whether oysters are nutritious or not, but after eating so many, Wei Yang did feel a little nervous. His hands and feet gradually started to become naughty, and then Fatty Fan, who had aroused him, dragged him into the bedroom for an in-depth conversation.

Ding~
Avoid smoking and drinking during pregnancy preparation, Boss Wei can't smoke after sex. He can only play with the lighter and watch the spark burn out.

Fat Fan, who had just broken into a sweat, seemed to feel the cold and hugged Wei Yang, the big stove, tightly. Wei Yang was soaked with water and his quilt felt wet.

Wei Yang didn't care and hugged Fan Xiaopang's plump body: "After you finish your work in Beijing in a few days, come back to the Magic City with me."

"Ah."

Fat Fan nodded and said, "It's a deal. She won't stop until she gets pregnant. As long as she doesn't get pregnant, she will follow Boss Wei wherever he goes."

"When will the filming of your film "Chi Le Chuan" start?"

"what happened?"

"I've agreed to participate in the show. Please ask about the schedule and arrange a room in advance."

On the one hand, Fan Xiaopang wanted to film, but more importantly, she planned to be in the same crew with Wei Yang and fight a long-term battle. She didn't believe that she couldn't get pregnant.

"It's hard to say now."

Wei Yang gave a general answer. It was not that he was trying to be perfunctory to Fan Xiaopang, but the situation was simply more complicated.

Liu Shishi and Zhao Liying are both pregnant, and he can't leave them both behind to go film, so he is considering whether to stop filming for a while and wait until the baby is born.

With the current development of the Blue Whale system, although Wei Yang is still crucial, it will not hurt the overall situation if he retires for a while.

Wei Yang can also take care of the behind-the-scenes work, such as cleaning up internal malpractices, adjusting the investment structure of the refining industry, and arranging the listing of PPTV.

Fan Xiaopang didn't have any objection to this, he just felt a little sorry for the separation, but it was convenient to stay in the Magic City.

"By the way, you said that I am preparing for pregnancy now, and I won't be able to go out for a while after I get pregnant. Should I find something to do?"

Liu Shishi is a relatively Buddhist person and can stay at home. When she was pregnant, she just rested at home and treated it as a long vacation.

Zhao Liying and Fan Xiaopang may not be able to stay idle.

The former is not so bad, as I can still handle some work at home in Shanghai, with two trusted assistants to help run errands.

Fan Xiaopang's Bingyang is almost entirely supported by her. Except for the agency work for several artists, most of the business is basically at a standstill.

So Fan Xiaopang had to prepare for a rainy day and started finding something to do to avoid being too bored.

"What do you want to do?"

Wei Yang knew Fan Xiaopang very well. As soon as he saw his expression, he knew that he probably had an idea and was looking for him either to make a decision or to ask for help.

"You told me about makeup and personal branding before. I did some research and consultation, and tried it out. It's really possible."

"It has a future, but can you handle it on your own?"

"I don't have the time and energy, but if I want to do this business, I don't have to manage it myself. I can cooperate, invest and find a manager. I have money and personal influence, and there are brands that are willing to make money together..."

Fan Xiaopang had obviously done his homework, and even with Boss Wei's intentional or unintentional reminders in the past, he had made a lot of preparations and arrangements, so he could be considered half an insider.

Just as she said, the beauty industry is complicated, but also simple.

Technology + Marketing!

There is no need to say much about the technology. Except for some exclusive secret recipes, the effects of most other brand products are similar, but each has its own advantages.

Therefore, in the absence of obvious technological advantages, marketing becomes very important.

And this is exactly Fan Xiaopang's strong point. In recent years, the name of Fan Ye and the influence of Asia's top female star are no joke. If she is tied to a certain brand at all costs, the exposure and popularity she brings can make all brands jealous.

Fan Xiaopang has proven this before. Back then, "My Love from the Star" let everyone see what a sales queen is.

[Same style as Fan Bingbing] In the e-commerce world, these words are synonymous with a surge in sales.

Not to mention, there is Boss Wei behind Fan Xiaopang.

Now people haven’t realized the channels such as live streaming and e-commerce, but even a fool can understand what Wei Yang Media + Internet tycoons represent.

Mr. Wang wants to pull Boss Wei into his live streaming platform, not to mention a beauty brand that can be pushed directly from an unknown to the king of traffic.

Fan Xiaopang's goal is also to bring Boss Wei into the game. She may be able to build a brand on her own, but only Boss Wei can make this brand the leader in the industry.

"What's the ratio?"

"If you create your own brand, you have to invest some money. We have to invest at least 70%. The rest needs to be recruited for technical and management positions. We can talk about financing later. If you cooperate with a brand, you don't have to take money, but it's hard to say about shares. You have to slowly negotiate. These people talk a lot, but they are actually thieves."

When Wei Yang heard this, he understood Fan Xiaopang's inclination: "Can you create your own brand?"

Fatty Fan was confident: "It won't cost you anything anyway."

Boss Wei nodded. Fat Fan had proven himself in his previous life. He couldn't say he did a great job, but he was not bad either. Now that he had made arrangements in advance and had a strong backer, he could let her do what she wanted and maybe she could give him a surprise.

"By the way, what's the name of your brand?"

"FAN BEAUTY, 美麗豎, means beauty and my last name."

"What a crappy name, it smells like micro-business, you might as well just call it Fan Meili's Diary."

Wei Yang was extremely disgusted with this name, it was neither Chinese nor Western. No wonder Fatty Fan had named the name Yang Fan or Bing Yang before, it turned out that he was even worse at naming than himself…
