Chapter 185: Bright Moon and Sparse Stars
The moon is bright and the stars are sparse.
The nights in the countryside were starry in the 1990s. When you look up, you will see a sky full of stars.
Cities are different.
The lights are dim, the neon lights are flashing, and the joys, sorrows and joys of the world are being performed everywhere.
Chen Pingsheng's family had a family barbecue party at eight o'clock in the evening.
It's in the specially built underground pavilion in the yard.
The family sat around the fire, grilling chicken wings and grilling lamb kebabs.
Chen Anan likes to eat chicken butts. If she eats chicken heads, her father will have to use her grades as an excuse.
Why are you eating chicken heads? With your grades, you can only eat chicken butts.
No need for Dad to tell her, she fell in love with the chicken butt consciously.
Sprinkle some pepper, chili powder, etc. to taste.
No matter how unpalatable it was, she would still use her belly to digest it.
That's the good thing about a courtyard house. It's big enough and convenient for everything.
The whole family gathers here to have barbecue, I don’t know how happy they are.
"Chen An'an, you are almost 100 pounds and you still eat so well?"
"A steelyard can weigh 300 kilograms, so how can I weigh only a hundred pounds?"
Chen Anan has a mutton skewer in his left hand and a chicken butt in his right hand.
There were two large pieces of chicken wings in her small bowl, and her mouth was full of oil.
If she couldn't finish the food, she would give it to her sister.
If she threw it away, no one would say she was wasting food.
"Brother, are you going to Shanghai this month?"
Chen Qi ate quite delicately, but she was deliberately controlling her appetite.
"Yes, I am going to attend the National Investment and Franchise Conference of Bobo Milk Tea in the middle of this month."
Chen Pingsheng likes to eat big chicken legs, but his barbecue skills are average.
"Then can I go?"
"What are you going to do?"
"I want to go to Shanghai for a visit. I haven't been there in my entire life. I heard that the Bund there is very beautiful."
Chen Qi simply wanted to play.
Chen Pingsheng followed her, since he couldn't go anywhere if he had money.
"The Bund is indeed quite beautiful. You can also see the sea there. If you are free, you can go there and play for a few days."
"Dad, why didn't you call me?"
Chen Anan felt that she was being ignored, so she had to remind her father.
"If you still shout, you are just a follower."
Chen Pingsheng took out his mobile phone and said, "Since you are all going, I will ask Yang Qian to book a hotel in advance."
"Dad, I want to live in a sea view room."
"You are suitable for living in the toilet."
Chen Anan snorted, her father was hard-spoken and soft-hearted.
The ones booked by then will definitely be the presidential suite.
After two months of vacation, it would be very fun to go to the Magic City.
Wait until they finish the barbecue and return to the room.
Song Yanxi had already finished taking a shower and was wearing her own white pajamas.
After she pulled back the thin silk quilt on the big bed, she asked, "Husband, should we have a New Year's Eve party this year?"
"Of course."
This is his most important money-making project every year. Chen Pingsheng said:
"After New Year's Eve, Shuiyunjian will have a must-have large-scale party every year. This year Tengying has a certain influence in the film industry. There is no need to worry about star resources. You can prepare in advance."
"All right."
When Song Yanxi fell asleep, the light was soft and comfortable, and the floor-to-ceiling window facing the head of the bed was filled with green forest.
It feels very comfortable.
"September will be the start of the second year's semester. Shuiyunjian will graduate nearly a thousand beauticians by this time next year. Our family still has to arrange jobs for them. We cannot let them graduate without a place."
"What are you thinking about?"
Chen Pingsheng tapped her little head, "We spent more than 100 million to train these beauticians, and it took two years. How could they be transferred to other people's homes?
"At the end of the year, I will invest 500 million in Shanghai. The plan is to open 30 stores directly. You have to be prepared as well. Try to recruit a mix of new and old beauticians."
Shuiyunjian Club invests about 10 million in a single store, and 500 million is enough to open 30 stores.
The extra money will be used to buy the headquarters there.
It's too big to afford, so a small two- or three-story building like this is definitely fine.
Song Yanxi's main worry was whether she would be in trouble if she crossed such a long distance at once.
Moreover, they are not familiar with the place there, and even their resources in the capital cannot get through.
This is a typical worry. It's unnecessary to worry. Their house can't be crossed, but it's okay if there are people on the other side.
Tong Zelan is not just a famous local household in Shanghai.
After we get there, we will definitely have to attract some local resource households to become shareholders.
Chen Pingsheng’s plan is to dilute 30% of his shares and obtain 300 million in funds.
Although the Magic City and the Capital are their own, the financial sectors have to be independent.
The purpose is to facilitate attracting local shareholders.
Every place has a network of relationships, and a business like Shuiyunjian must have a few major shareholders who can handle it.
Isn't the reason why Shuiyunjian College in Beijing recruits so many people for training two years in advance to make the leap to Shanghai in one step?
Their family's layout in the capital has been completed.
In the future Shuiyunjian, Tenghui Department Store and Boiling Yangyang will all have to cross over there.
The first one to go was Bobo Milk Tea, with its headquarters in Shanghai.
It is small in size and naturally moves quickly.
As for Tengying, what he does is not a traditional business.
There is no such thing as cross-city distribution. Once a movie or TV series is released, it goes to the national market.
The next day.
After Song Yanxi went to the Shuiyunjian headquarters, she began to make arrangements in advance for New Year's Eve and the big investment in the Magic City at the end of the year.
Half of the intern beauticians from the college will stay in the capital, and the other half will go to Shanghai with the old beauticians from the capital.
For such a big move, preparations must be made at least a year in advance.
Money comes second. Their family can easily raise 500 million by the end of the year.
The key is to arrange the people well, and Chen Pingsheng went to work in Tengying.
After Queen Yang finished filming the variety show, she immediately went to film her disappearance.
Haven't come back yet.
Bai Lu, on the other hand, came back after filming Zhao Yao.
Waiting for the company to arrange the next work plan for her.
She and Chen Pingsheng looked at each other with big eyes, but Bai Lu was still a little transparent in the entertainment industry.
Although the TV series has been filmed, it has not been broadcast yet, and it has almost no fame.
Chen Pingsheng asked her to go to Zhejiang Hengdian Film and Television City to find Zhao Liying.
It's up to her to arrange the work. In fact, it would be best if a newcomer like this has the opportunity to film a variety show.
The greater the exposure, the faster it will become popular.
I haven’t seen how quickly Baby Yang became popular after last year’s Running Man aired. She didn’t have any TV series or movies.
With just one variety show, she has become a top-notch female in the country.
It can be seen how much variety shows have promoted new artists.
Unfortunately, Tengying has very few resources in variety shows.
Yang Mi relied on her own ability to receive the invitations. Who would invite Bai Lu, a female artist with no reputation at all?
Zhao Liying rarely participates in variety shows.
As soon as Bai Lu came back, he was driven to Zhejiang.
His pretty little cousin Jiang Peiyao was also filming there.
When I get to Shanghai, I can stop by and have a look. It’s pretty close anyway.
"Uncle, this is the sales of Hua Qiangu peripheral products last month."
Bai Xin handed him a financial statement, which was sent from Tong Zelan.
Ever since Hua Qiangu premiered in June, it has become a huge hit.
It completely exceeded Tong Zelan and Hu Ding's expectations. Now the factories in Guangdong are still rushing to produce Hua Qiangu's peripheral products.
Chen Pingsheng looked at it.
In June, the dual network platform plus offline channels, the total sales were almost 600 million.
The gross profit is 80%, which is almost 500 million.
It takes one and a half months to withdraw money on the platform.
Tong Zelan's agreement was to come back at the end of September for the general accounting.
At that time, Hua Qiangu had already finished sowing, and the bonus period had completely passed.
Now they all wish that Fruit Channel would broadcast it one day a week and try to extend this bonus period as much as possible.
The income brought by the hit TV series is really great.
Based on this sales situation, the gross profit from peripheral products is estimated to be over one billion.
After deducting all products, he can make a few small profits here.
Fragrant.
There is a sense of money coming in everywhere.
Bai Xin also had bright eyes. According to the boss's usual style, once such a large sum of money is obtained.
That would definitely result in bonuses being given out to the entire company, and she would also be able to earn a lot of income.
Tengying has now become a company with a valuation of tens of billions in the entertainment industry. She doesn't even know how the outside world came up with this valuation.
Anyway, it’s so easy for them to go to work.
Of course, Tengying's income is really high.
"Not bad. Charlotte is scheduled to be released during the National Day, right?"
"Yes, Shen Teng came back a few days ago, and he went on a variety show while you were away from the company."
Chen Pingsheng nodded. This film is the first one that Tengying has fully invested in since entering the film industry.
If the box office can exceed 1 billion, then Tengying's launch plan is destined to go much smoother.
Chen Pingsheng said: "Go and inform the finance department to give each of Shen, Teng, and Marley a bonus of 10 million. Let's call it the Charlotte bonus."
This money was originally intended to be given to Yang Mi.
She didn't want it, so it was just right to give it to Shen Teng and Marley.
They had just signed a contract with Tengying, and they didn't know much about their style of work yet.
Tengying's main theme is that everyone can make money together.
Never be that person who eats alone.
Bai Xin secretly thought, she thought the boss was using the old bouquet trick.
Marketing for Charlotte ahead of time.
In fact, he just rewards others with a little money.
Shen Tengmali, who is still filming a variety show, received 10 million inexplicably on his mobile phone.
I thought I had encountered telecom fraud.
The two of them were planning to use this to make some jokes and make up a skit along the way.
Suddenly I received a letter from the chairman's secretary.
The bonus of 10 million per person has no name.
There was no special contribution, the boss just gave it to them in such a simple and unpretentious way.
Not even a word of explanation.
"Brother Teng, this boss looks a bit like the one in the legend!"
Marley said in a daze at the side.
Shen Teng was still shrewd, "This is not good. It seems that we really made the right change when we changed companies. Look how grand this boss is. I don't even know where I earned him 10 million, snap." The money has arrived.”
"Yeah, I always feel like this boss is not very smart. He won't ask us to take it back."
"No, that's certainly not the case."
The two of them were inexplicable all afternoon. When they got home, they didn't receive the message that the old financial officer had transferred the wrong money.
At ease.
They actually gave them bonuses.
…
Chen Pingsheng was in a good mood and went home from get off work early.
He rarely drives Bugattis these days but prefers Bentley SUVs.
I simply ordered a sky blue Bentley Bentayga.
It is quite comfortable to drive, and it is effortless to spend a car worth millions.
I bought it after being slightly tempted.
There are four small garages in the large courtyard of the family, which can barely accommodate four cars.
His wife usually drives Bentley and LaFerrari alternately.
He himself drives Bugatti and Rolls-Royce Phantom.
The Bentley is parked outside, and several parking spaces were bought separately, which are often occupied by others.
He has never called to urge, and it is okay to make it convenient for others.
Anyway, most of his family’s cars are parked at home, and this side is mainly for Liu Fen and his younger sister Chen Qi.
Chen Pingsheng, who was in a good mood, passed by the old tree at the entrance of the alley.
He almost didn’t recognize the little girl in front of him who was wearing sunglasses and playing the erhu.
Her style is very unique, with a super large frog-eye glasses on her small face.
She also wore a green long gown. Forgive her for being a little fat, this long gown looks very plump on her.
There was also a bowl in front of her.
Maybe she knew that her skills were not good enough, so she even used a small trumpet to play Erhu Yingyue.
Chen Pingsheng walked over, took out a small copper coin from his pocket, and finally threw her a small copper coin.
"Chen Anan, what are you doing?"
"Dad, didn't you see that I started my own business and became my own boss."
Chen Anan shook her small bowl.
Chen Pingsheng didn't know what was wrong with her, "Does your family lack food or clothes? Is it necessary for you to embarrass yourself outside?"
"Dad, where is your awareness? Where is your ideological realm?"
Chen Anan is quite boastful. According to her own words, she is self-reliant in advance.
Be an inspirational emperor since childhood, and you can brag everywhere when you grow up.
That's right, making money is secondary.
With her family's conditions, there is no much meaning in making money.
Accumulating a lot of capital for bragging since childhood is her goal, Chen Anan.
She is so simple and unpretentious at the age of eight, what will happen when she grows up.
"Your father has no thoughts and no consciousness. He gets a headache just looking at you."
Chen Pingsheng let her go and fool around. Most people who live in this area know her.
This is due to Chen Anan's social bull nature since she was a child.
The mantis boxing in the morning was not in vain.
A unique little scenery in the park.
As long as she is not embarrassed, it is others who are embarrassed anyway.
Chen Anan plays by herself. Her father is still very good.
He will not care about her too much since she was a child. As long as she likes it, no matter what she does, although he may not necessarily support it, he will basically not oppose it.
Dad, a very good dad.
I want to play a nice erhu for him.
To commemorate my great dad.
"Ah~my dad."
"Woo~He lives in Erlitun."
"Ah~He is my mother's cousin."
"Woo~The two of them had me in a muddle."
Chen Pingsheng, who had just turned to the corner, simply couldn't bear to look at it anymore.
The situation of the big fart kid is really a bit serious.
When he found the little brat still jumping and clapping his hands behind him, he carried her home quickly.
He couldn't be influenced by the big brat.
Back in his own courtyard, Chen Pingsheng said earnestly, "Xinyi, your sister is already in the late stage of neurosis. The small goal of the family to get into Tsinghua University and Peking University falls on you, you have to work hard."
"She is only one year old. Can she understand what you say to her?" Peng Ying came over from downstairs.
"No matter if she understands or not, she should be taught from a young age."
Chen Pingsheng said, "Don't be like her sister again. My little heart can't stand it."
"You still have the nerve to say that. You were even more naughty when you were a child."
Peng Ying wanted to mention the shameless things he did when he was a child, but Chen Pingsheng interrupted her quickly, "You are talking about your granddaughter, why are you dragging me into it?"
"Everyone has a process of growing up."
Peng Ying said, "I think An An is very good. She is polite to others and everyone likes her."
Well... you should praise her as much as you can.
You will know after you stay here for a long time.
Chen An An's nonsense is not as simple as going out to the street with a bowl and being a boss.
She has a series of tricks, and her grandmother just hasn't seen them yet.
When she sees them, she will truly understand what it means to be a big loser in the ocean of knowledge and a top-notch master in the world of nonsense.
Chen An An went home with her hands behind her back. It was getting dark and it was almost time for dinner at home.
Everyone only gave money and didn't throw away a single steamed bun.
You can't starve yourself to thinness.
Looking at the few hundred yuan in her bowl, she was so happy.
Although a few hundred yuan is nothing to her, it is earned by her hard work.
It has great commemorative significance.
You can't spend it all, take out the piggy bank that you bought for more than 10,000 yuan.
Put these few hundred yuan in it carefully.
Wow, hahaha... Chen Anan laughed, and found that her father had been looking at her sideways, so Chen Anan immediately shut up.
Have to be low-key.
Let my father find that I can make money in the ordinary life.
Then give her a few thousand yuan, and use the money to buy a bigger piggy bank.
Forget about giving her money, it's already the best if I don't take away all her pocket money.
