The wonderful "chemical reaction" produced by combining the two cracked apps, GoGo Maps and Shuaiyang, left Lin Shen thrilled.

He even considered whether he should use this method to cash out the entire startup fund from GoGo Maps.

However, Lin Shen quickly dismissed the idea.

First, he wasn’t sure if exploiting a bug like this would result in a penalty from the system, causing the app to lose its cracked features.

Second, Lin Shen’s daily income already exceeded one hundred thousand, and his savings had reached eight figures. He no longer had a particularly pressing need for money.

For him, the startup fund was just another asset; there was no need to take a risk to cash it out.

After finishing up with work, Lin Shen began to reply to his WeChat messages one by one.

[Jiang Wan: Lin Shen, a lot of media companies have been sending me private messages, inviting me to join them. What should I do?]

’Media companies, huh...’

Lin Shen opened Jiang Wan’s Douyin account and was surprised to find her follower count had surpassed one million!

’She gained over three hundred thousand followers in just two or three days?!’

The staggering numbers made Lin Shen’s eyes widen.

After all, this had been achieved without any paid promotion for Jiang Wan; they had reached this level relying solely on the short film they made together.

’If they had done more marketing, the follower growth could have probably broken the half-million mark!’

Lin Shen clicked on Jiang Wan’s pinned video and saw that the number of likes had already surpassed three million. 𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺

As for the view count, it was probably approaching a hundred million...

TSK TSK!

Lin Shen clicked his tongue twice, surprised that something he had casually filmed could become so popular.

The main credit definitely went to Jiang Wan’s acting, but of course, the help from his two "hacks" was indispensable.

One was the super photo-editing AI in his Camera and Album, and the other was the Big Blue Book’s Decryption Effect that boosted organic traffic.

Working in tandem, they had created such a viral video.

After some thought, Lin Shen decided to ask for Jiang Wan’s opinion.

[Lin Shen: What are your thoughts?]

[Jiang Wan: I don’t want to join them because I have my main job as a counselor. But a lot of fans are urging me to post more, and this hit video has also brought me a lot of brand deals and ads. I also want to try developing my acting career and earn some money in my spare time... What do you think I should do?]

[Lin Shen: It’s simple.]

Lin Shen suddenly thought of a brilliant idea.

[Lin Shen: Since you don’t want to join a media company, then don’t. We can just film together. I can handle the editing and post-production. One viral video isn’t enough for you to quit your job as a counselor, since a lot of luck was involved.]

[Lin Shen: So, I think we should make another video. If that one goes viral too, it’ll prove that you’re incredibly talented at acting, and you can consider developing a career in this direction.]

[Lin Shen: And when that time comes, I’ll support you. I’m planning to start a media company. What do you think?]

Huh?

’Start a media company?’

To be honest, Lin Shen’s proposal had genuinely startled Jiang Wan.

She knew full well that Lin Shen was currently working hard to build his business in the pet industry.

’He’s not even done with that, and now he wants to start a media company?’

’Leaving aside whether he had the energy for it, just the capital alone would surely lead to cash flow problems!’

So, Jiang Wan wanted to talk Lin Shen out of it, but after thinking it over, she also felt incredibly hopeful.

The reason she didn’t want to join those other media companies was mainly that she’d heard people in the industry say they not only exploit their own streamers but even have a "casting couch" culture!

But if Lin Shen were to start a media company, she wouldn’t have to worry about any of that.

’But wouldn’t it be too much for him?’

Just as Jiang Wan was struggling with what to say, another message came from Lin Shen.

[Lin Shen: Of course, these are all just ideas for the future. We still have to take things one step at a time. But I have already thought of a name for the media company (haha).]

[Lin Shen: We’ll call it Shenwan Media. How about it?]
