Chapter 1111: Chapter 601: A Home for the Users? (Seeking Subscriptions)_2

Ding Yue was discussing with Xu Jiuge what the next animation project for Feiyue Animation Studio should be.

"Alright, Principal Ding, let’s do an animated film then,"

Xu Jiuge agreed with Principal Ding’s suggestion.

But what specific animated film to make?

Previously, works like "Super Combat Team" and "Love, Death & Robots" all had certain story origins.

"You guys take a break, I’ll see if I can find an IP story suitable for adapting into an animated film."

After considering it, Ding Yue realized he’d have to find the so-called IP himself if he wanted to make an animated film.

Back on Earth, there were quite a few that could be adapted, and Ding Yue was ready to find a suitable one for his Feiyue Animation Studio to produce.

"Okay."

Seeing that Principal Ding would find an IP suitable for adapting into an animated film, Xu Jiuge was no longer worried.

In Xu Jiuge’s view, Principal Ding seemed to be very adept at finding such works for adaptation.

Thump, thump, thump!

"Yue!"

While Ding Yue was on the phone talking with Xu Jiuge, a knocking sound and Xu Bin’s voice came from the office door.

"Director Xu."

Wen Ruohan immediately went forward to open the door and greeted Director Xu Bin upon seeing him.

"Okay Jiuge, once I find suitable IP for adaptation, I’ll get in touch with you,"

After saying this, Ding Yue hung up the phone with Xu Jiuge, then looked up to see the newly arrived Bin, "You’re here."

"Hmm, Yue, what’s up?"

Xu Bin walked over and took a seat at the chair in front of Ding Yue’s desk.

"It’s a long story,"

Ding Yue shrugged and said.

This matter was indeed a long story, as it involved starting from the rivalry Feiyue Group, Mist City Arts and Science University had with Q Entertainment Media.

"No problem, I’m all ears for gossip,"

Xu Bin said, smiling.

"We have some beef with Q Entertainment Media, that is, the Penguin Group, right? The animated series we created at the animation studio were originally intended to go live on Bilibili, but we got targeted."

Ding Yue briefly explained the situation to Xu Bin.

"Huh? Our animated series going live on Bilibili, what does that have to do with... Oh right, Bilibili has financing from Penguin Group, doesn’t it?"

Xu Bin was halfway through his question when he realized the connection.

Ordinary people, when mentioning Bilibili, would think of it as one of the better-developed original video sites in the country.

But on second thought, it made sense that, with Bilibili’s continuous development and rounds of fundraising, it ended up infiltrated by the Penguin Group.

Now, in this Parallel World, the big boss behind Bilibili is the Penguin Group as well.

"So what are we going to do? The Penguin Group occupies more than half the territory in our country’s internet entertainment sector, doesn’t it?"

Xu Bin said, feeling helpless.

"That’s why I called you over, we need to break through the status quo, or else we’ll always be at the mercy of others,"

Ding Yue smiled calmly and said earnestly to his friend Xu Bin, "I plan to create our own streaming platform to consolidate our own cultural and entertainment products. For this platform, we’ll definitely need the Computer Science department to step in. How about it, confident?"

Ding Yue explained the reason why he had called Xu Bin over.

Upon hearing this, Xu Bin immediately understood and nodded slightly, saying, "Creating a streaming platform, that’s not a problem, nor is it very difficult. However, it will require some time. The Computer Science department is currently working on an Internet of Things project. If we insert this new project in the middle, then the Internet of Things project will have to be postponed for a while."

"That’s not an issue, we’re not in a hurry with the Internet of Things,"

Ding Yue thought for a moment and felt that there should be a sense of urgency.

Although the Internet of Things technology project was a big one, it couldn’t be rushed.

It was just like the photolithography machine project with the mechanical engineering department.

Two years earlier, Ding Yue had already decided on the mechanical engineering department’s photolithography machine project and had invested quite a bit of money in it over time.

However, since Ding Yue often needed the mechanical engineering team for other projects, the photolithography machine project, which required a long time and significant funding, was frequently put on hold.

As of now, the photolithography machine experiment had more time for Tong Yihang and Luo Peng to continue their research.

The situation was similar in the computer department.

The Internet of Things technology project could indeed be delayed a little, so an extra two or three months wouldn’t be particularly urgent.

"I understand, Yue. I’ll start with the team on our own streaming platform,"

Xu Bin nodded his head. As a buddy, he naturally did his utmost to support Ding Yue’s arrangement.

"Good!"

Ding Yue stood up, walked over, and patted Xu Bin’s shoulder, "Then it’s going to be tough on your computer department team, try to get our own streaming platform built as soon as possible!"

"No problem."

Xu Bin made an OK gesture.

"Hahaha, I’ll give everyone a reward when the time comes." Ding Yue felt that since he was asking everyone to work hard, he, as the boss, definitely needed to provide a generous reward.

"Alright, I’ll go back and get everybody set up, oh and, Yue, what are we calling our own streaming platform?"

Xu Bin suddenly thought of the name of the streaming platform and asked.

Creating a streaming platform wasn’t a difficult task for Xu Bin and his computer department team, but building the platform would certainly take some time. Most importantly, what would the platform be named?

"As for the name, it’s best if it’s related to Feiyue Group,"

Ding Yue muttered.

After all, it would be a product under the Feiyue Group, and by tradition, it usually included the word Feiyue.

But if it were called Feiyue Video, it would seem too limited.

"How about Feiyue Home?"

Ding Yue had been thinking, just "Feiyue" might not be very illustrative since products under the Feiyue Group banner all included Feiyue followed by the type.

For example, Feiyue Media, Feiyue Animation, Feiyue eSports, Feiyue Logistics, Feiyue Film and Television, Feiyue Games, etc.

But this streaming platform would be an entertainment platform that integrates animation, film, television, games, etc., so Ding Yue thought that including "home" was pretty good.

The reason for using this English word wasn’t just because it looked trendy but because the streaming platform would inevitably go international once it grew larger.

Therefore, combining Feiyue + Home as the naming convention was a good choice.

"This name... seems pretty good."

Once Xu Bin heard it, he then analyzed, "Feiyue is our Feiyue Group’s signature, and with home, this streaming platform becomes a place suitable for entertainment, just like home to the users."

"Exactly, exactly!"

Wen Ruohan also felt that Director Xu Bin’s analysis was spot on.

Ding Yue smiled faintly and said to Xu Bin, "That’s what I mean, let’s call our streaming platform Feiyue Home."

Regarding the naming, it was truly hard to come up with an extremely brilliant name. Previously, Ding Yue had been very pragmatic, naming the various departments and companies under the Feiyue Group simply by appending their type to Feiyue, which was so convenient.

"Alright!"

Once they had confirmed the name of the streaming platform would be Feiyue Home, Xu Bin nodded and said, "Then I’m heading back."

"Mhm."

And so,

After leaving Principal Ding’s office in the Administration Building, Xu Bin returned to the computer lab and immediately announced the new priority project for the computer department: building the streaming platform.

The members of the computer department team, of course, didn’t say a word; whatever Director Xu asked them to do, they simply followed and got on with the work.

As for Ding Yue,

Having decided to create his own streaming platform, he made up his mind and then directly called Bilibili to end things...
