Rebirth at the Start: This Fate is Too Explosive!

Chapter 493 Mingdun Content Security Review Center!

In distant Jinling, after learning about the penguin's final decision through some information, Ye Fan's lips curled into a cold and all-knowing smile: As expected, they chose the "safest" path.

Unfortunately, in this blitzkrieg over the future, hesitation had already sealed the fate of defeat.

He knew that these hesitant investors, especially the penguins who chose to stand by and watch, had already lost their ticket to participate in this ultimate game that would determine the future landscape the moment they pressed the "pause button" and decided to "wait and see"!

They may not "lose" immediately, but they have given up even the right and opportunity to "lose" with their own hands.

Because the real winners will only emerge from the fleets that dare to brave the wind and waves at full speed from the very first moment.

The bigger the storm, the more expensive the fish—this cruel yet tempting truth is understood by all the shrewd old foxes who have weathered the storms of the business world.

However, when faced with towering waves powerful enough to capsize a giant ship, those brave enough to set sail or even create the waves are few and far between.

......

The phenomenal success of the Weiming App has not only stirred up the business world, but its enormous influence as a new form of content dissemination has also inevitably come into the view of relevant national regulatory authorities.

This unprecedented, exponentially spreading information carrier, with its powerful emotional appeal, has a potential social impact far exceeding that of an ordinary application.

Ye Fan had anticipated this; it was only a matter of time.

When the formally worded interview notice, bearing the bright red seal of an important department, arrived, he even felt a sense of calm, as if the dust had finally settled.

The meeting took place in a calm and well-lit conference room.

Across the long table sat several middle-aged men and women with serious expressions and composed demeanor. Their gazes were like precise probes, scrutinizing the excessively young business leader before them.

The atmosphere was solemn and formal.

Ye Fan did not feel the slightest bit awkward or try to play any tricks.

He knew that in this level of dialogue, honesty and vision were the only and most powerful credentials.

He took a deep breath, his gaze clear and firm, and began an explanation that could determine the future direction of Microphone and even the entire industry.

There were no flowery words, no attempts to downplay the issue.

Ye Fan, this reborn individual with foresight, laid bare his profound understanding of the short video ecosystem:

The core concept of the product: "Weiming's vision is to build a platform for recording and sharing authentic and beautiful things."

"It should be a stage for ordinary people to showcase their talents, share their lives, and connect with each other; a bridge to help local characteristics, traditional skills, and intangible cultural heritage emerge from obscurity and be revitalized; and a window to allow the magnificent landscapes and everyday life of people thousands of miles away to be seen and appreciated."

Expected positive impacts:

"It inspires deep emotional connections. We have observed that when content such as traditional Chinese music, traditional festivals, and heroic deeds are disseminated through short videos, it can instantly ignite the deep-seated patriotism and cultural identity of users, forming a powerful resonance that draws a large following. This spontaneous patriotic enthusiasm and expression of cultural confidence is unprecedented."

"Empowering individuals and preserving traditions. It will provide skilled artisans and those who quietly preserve traditions with a direct platform to showcase their talents and monetize their skills, truly allowing good wine to be discovered even in hidden corners. It will also help those beautiful landscapes, delicious foods, and wonderful cultures that deserve to be discovered to reach a wider audience."

Foreseeable risks and challenges:

"Information cocoons and value skewness. Algorithms may exacerbate the 'information cocoon,' causing users to see only what they want to see, leading to cognitive biases."

"Vulgar content and negative influences. Lowering the threshold may lead to a flood of vulgar, satirical, or even content that promotes negative values ​​such as materialism, comparison, and violence, which will have a particularly negative impact on the formation of values ​​among teenagers."

"The risk of misinformation and public opinion. The rapid spread of misinformation and rumors can cause unverified rumors to spread quickly, triggering social panic or public opinion incidents."

"Privacy security and online fraud. The generation of massive amounts of user data also means huge risks of privacy leaks and online fraud."

Response plan and plea:

"Based on these predictions, we earnestly request and fully support the relevant departments in establishing a more comprehensive and forward-looking regulatory framework and content review standards in advance;

The strictest definitions and controls will be implemented for red-line areas involving national security, social stability, protection of minors, and public order and good morals;

We will urge platforms to fulfill their primary responsibilities and invest heavily in both technical and manual review.

We are willing to serve as a pilot project to explore more effective regulatory technologies and management models.

Ye Fan's statement was clear and logical, with a clear distinction between the advantages and disadvantages.

He didn't just paint a bright picture; he also clearly marked the most likely "hidden reefs."

This maturity beyond his years, profound insight, and candid attitude in proactively embracing regulation drew undisguised surprise and admiration from every experienced official present.

They seemed to see the young man before them not only running a business, but also drawing up a grand vision for the future governance and cultural dissemination of the digital society.

This crucial meeting ultimately concluded in an atmosphere of mutual understanding and shared goals.

A few days later, after completing all the necessary compliance procedures, Ye Fan successfully obtained all the key operating licenses and policy approvals.

Meanwhile, the Weiming App has been officially included in the National Key Supervision List of Network Information Content.

This may seem like an extra "tightening spell," but for Ye Fan and Wei Ming, it is precisely a "protective talisman" and a "passport"!

It clearly defines the boundaries and avoids huge policy risks that may arise in the future, which means that Weiming has obtained official endorsement to "grow unscrupulously and recklessly" within the compliance framework!

"A double-edged sword must be sheathed under supervision; this is a principle we proposed proactively."

Upon returning to the company, Ye Fan immediately convened the core management team and declared unequivocally: "Now that the regulatory framework is clear, our internal audits must be ten times more stringent than the strictest standards! This is our lifeline!"

He immediately assigned Miao Zi, the most decisive and principled person in charge: "Miao Zi, you will take the lead, break away from the existing system, and immediately establish a wholly-owned subsidiary! Name it 'Mingdun Content Security Review Center'!"

"Granted with the highest authority and independent budget, our sole mission is to build the industry's most rigorous and efficient content filtering network! With three rounds of manual review and proofreading, from keyword databases to image semantic analysis, I want to create a true 'Digital Great Wall' to ensure that every frame and every character on the platform can withstand scrutiny!"
