On the evening of September 25th, Lei Jun reflected on his 28-year brotherhood with Vancl founder Chen Nian during his annual speech, recounting Chen Nian's journey of paying off over 1 billion yuan in debt over ten years and his perseverance through difficult times. Lei Jun emotionally stated: "Your 50s are the right age to venture out!"

Chen Nian, who was watching the livestream at the time, was deeply moved and was seen covering his face and shedding tears multiple times. Chen Nian later responded, saying he hadn't expected Lei Jun to dedicate such a significant portion of his speech to him, and admitted that the April 18, 2024 livestream completely changed the fate of both himself and Vancl.
