Reaching the age of thirty, my income randomly doubled Chapter 324

Chapter 324: Chapter 228 Group Strategy Annual Meeting_2

“Motherfucker,” Chang Fu couldn't help but blurt out.

“Last year, a woman who was already married once and had a child got a dowry of 180,000 yuan which was shocking enough, but this year it's gone up to 300,000 yuan! Doesn't anyone in the village have anything to say about this?”

“What can they say? Don't you see the situation here? The gender imbalance is completely out of whack.”

Chen Pingsheng said, “With a ratio of three men to one woman, if women don't remarry several times, the number of bachelors will just keep increasing. As for the dowry, I reckon it will continue to rise in the future, it might even become more exaggerated than housing prices.”

“So if this keeps up, where's the way out for the countryside?”

Yeah, that's true.

The older generation dreams of their sons achieving great success. After all the hard work of raising them, they find out.

Even getting a wife has become difficult.

Emptying out the wallets of three generations to marry a wife, they still live in fear of someone mentioning divorce.

This is just fucked up.

Chu Qiuyan and the others felt a lot of pressure listening to Chen Pingsheng talk about these things.

Not being born in the countryside, they simply can't comprehend the current situation there.

Life is getting better, that's true, but it's also getting increasingly difficult.

Now, when rural girls get married, you could give them a 500 square meter rural villa.

But it still wouldn't compare to a two-bedroom apartment in the city.

There's no exaggeration, only ever more outrageous things.

Chu Qiuyan can't afford to sympathize with those single men in the countryside; she herself used to be dirt poor.

Her parents left for so many years and to this day, there's no word from them.

In such circumstances, they're either buried in some ravine or trapped abroad unable to return.

Either way, she has made it through these years by herself.

Now everyone is living in top-tier cities, enjoying the best medical and educational facilities. At the same time, they can't help but care about their true places of origin.

“The biggest issue that needs to be resolved in the countryside is the meager income,” someone said.

“That's right.”

Chen Pingsheng agreed, “The countryside's biggest advantage is that it has enough land and plenty of idle space. As long as we use this to our advantage, there's still room for development.”

“But just farming alone isn't going to cut it, is it?”

Chu Qiuyan asked curiously.

“Just farming alone? Of course not. Nowadays, city folk love to eat organic vegetables. This time when I go back, I'm thinking about trying to set that up.”

Organic vegetables are those that haven't been treated with pesticides since they were young.

The same head of cabbage treated with pesticides can only be sold for two yuan a kilo.

But those untreated can sell for twenty.

The difference is just between ordinary consumer groups and the wealthy consumer groups.

His family loves to eat organic vegetables.

The price is not an issue, as Tengsheng Fresh Market sells a good amount of such vegetables.

If you want to make money through farming, obviously you can't grow the cheapest stuff.

You can only think of ways to cater to high-consumption items.

Sometimes doing these things isn't just about making a profit, but really wanting to help the people from a specific region.

Everyone had a long chat until it was time to start the meal.

With a lot of people, they ate in a dedicated banquet hall, with one huge round table that could seat twenty people.

Home-style dishes weren't too abundant, just a simple chicken hot pot, a fish hot pot, plus fifty or so Datong Lake hairy crabs.

And seven or eight other home-style dishes.

In a couple of days, it would be the group's annual meeting, which was definitely going to be lively.

Besides the people from the Capital City headquarters, there were also those from the Magic City headquarters.

Also included were Fei Yangyang, Bobo Milk Tea, Antler Coffee, and other offline store managers.

After a year of hard work, they couldn't possibly be left out of the group's annual meeting.

On the day of the annual meeting, nearby hotels were all booked up by Tengying Group.

Those who traveled from all over the country to attend the meeting numbered around twenty thousand.

That's what you call a spectacle, that's what you call momentum.

That's it.

Zhang Wanyi and Liu Qing, both still interns, arrived early just like the other interns.

They entered the annual meeting site in an orderly fashion. Of course, they couldn't sit in the very front row, which was reserved for the group's top executives, including the big boss.

The annual meeting venue was set up at the National Stadium.

Tengying Group had already set up a stage there.

You wouldn't know unless you came, but once here, it became clear just how large the group had grown.

From left to right in order were Water Cloud Space, Fei Yangyang, Bobo Milk Tea, Antler Coffee, Tengying Entertainment, and so on.

You could say, if it weren't for such an annual meeting, they wouldn't even be aware of the broad range of industries their group spanned.

When it comes to the most eye-catching part of the whole venue, it has to be Tengying Entertainment. On the day of the annual meeting, no matter if you're an actor from any tier or a director,

you have to return to Capital City.

Yang Mi, Zhao Liying, Bai Lu, Wu Jing, Shen Teng, Chen Sicheng, and other celebrities were all seated at the front.

You could say the stars were brilliant.

The group's annual meeting had also prepared several programs, with the most outstanding naturally coming from Tengying Entertainment.

They were in the entertainment industry, after all, and these things were what they did best.

But after various performances, it was time for Chen Pingsheng, the big boss, to take the stage.

It had been a year, and during that time, he rarely spoke or gave speeches within the group.

And he never did so in public.

When he finally took the stage, there was a huge round of applause from below, and that brat Chen An'an kept screaming from the crowd.

What an exaggeration.

It was simply for the sake of getting more pocket money during the New Year.

Chen Pingsheng held a headset microphone, speaking softly yet clearly to every corner.

So that in this venue of twenty thousand people, he became that most dazzling light.

“The development of the group to this day has been three or four years.”
