Chapter 341: Chapter 237 The Upcoming Carnival

After Chen Pingsheng finished discussing the matter with Melon Seed Used Cars.

He personally invested six hundred million and Tong Zelan would find two other investment institutions to jointly complete the remaining six hundred million.

After the three parties signed the investment agreement, Bai Xin came to find him.

The little secretary was also twenty-five by then, having progressed from the youthful beauty initially a bit bewildered.

To now a workplace beauty, a top employee.

She had completed the two most important transitions in her life at Tengying.

One was interning straight out of university, the other was choosing to leave the entertainment industry to focus on being his full-time secretary.

A few years had passed, and the results were very pleasing.

Not only did she own her own three-bedroom, two-hall residences in the city centers of Beijing and Shanghai.

But she also enjoyed an extremely high personal status in the entertainment industry.

Far surpassing the industry status she would have had as an artist herself.

“Uncle, these are the specific details for the Lantern Festival Electronic Music Festival.”

The day after tomorrow will be Lantern Festival, and once it passes, the New Year's period will be officially over.

Welcome to the brand new 2016.

The entire Tengying Group will also have a day off; it was decided last year to hold this dazzling electronic music festival that will stun the whole city.

Chen Pingsheng took the planning book and quickly glanced through it, then his gaze landed on the price of goods.

“Thirty bucks for a cup of water, who's the genius who set this?”

“Uncle, it's set by our group's experts based on the pricing of past electronic music festivals.”

“We don't need to care about how others do it, since when did our group need to rely on selling overpriced water to make money?”

Chen Pingsheng said, “All merchandise must be provided for free, and you go notify Xin Teng Live Streaming, let the big internet celebrities over there come up and dance on stage too.”

Such megevents are inherently very popular.

Especially since it will be broadcast online at that time.

It could also give a boost to those big internet celebrities, drawing attention and popularity.

To some extent, internet celebrities are more like shooting stars.

After all, the reasons they accumulate followers don't have much staying power.

Luck is a predominant factor.

They need constant exposure to gain recognition and maintain fan interest.

This is completely different from celebrities.

The holding of the electronic music festival is not only a festive celebration within the group.

But also a grand external promotion, celebrating the arrival of 2016.

“Uncle, for the end-of-month entertainment industry banquet, the organizers personally called, they really hope you can attend.”

An entertainment industry banquet is, plainly speaking, a contest of glamour among female stars.

Each dresses with a lower neckline than the last.

Except for two key points that shouldn't be shown, everything that can be displayed is displayed.

Chen Pingsheng thought such an event was quite pleasing to the eyes. He had been in the entertainment industry for a few years, and except for the time he scouted Yang Mi, he hadn't attended since.

Now it seemed like it might be okay to go take a look.

What's the harm if female stars dress revealingly and he takes a look?

It's free of charge too!

At the end of the month, take Chang Fu with you, and it would be best to invite Gao Hu as well.

At the end of the month, Fei Yangyang will be able to go public, starting with a market capitalization of eighty billion, no doubt a super-sized enterprise in the catering industry.

“Sure, you just reply to them.”

Chen Pingsheng agreed, and Bai Xin immediately went to send the reply. Such invitation messages, unless the organizer's boss was extremely famous or he personally messaged uncle,

Would only reach his personal phone. Otherwise, they are usually first sent to the group, which then contacts the secretary's office.

In any case, after achieving a high social status, various social events and parties emerge endlessly.

Chen Pingsheng didn't participate in any of them.

He focused on his own business.

This 2016 dazzling electronic music festival was a grand celebration within the group.

With Tengying Entertainment's industry standing, inviting several global top 100 DJs was a breeze.

He was quite fond of the fan dance pioneer from Kimchi Country back in the day,

And the QQ Dance game that he often played in his youth.

That game was hugely popular back then, and he had invited that duo over.

It was also a tribute to his own youth.

The day before Lantern Festival.

Jiang Peiyao came to find him quietly; apart from the top flow DJs and dance music stars invited to the group's electronic music festival,

The main performing guests were these trainee girl groups.

This was also a major exposure opportunity provided by the group for them.

Jiang Peiyao and Yang Xiaoxiao were arranged to perform on the same stage as that well-known dance music queen from Kimchi Country.

It would be false to say they felt no pressure.

“Brother-in-law, why are you home alone again?”

“Your cousin sister is busy buying property in Xiangjiang, so I'm home alone, aren't I?”

“Ah? Why did my cousin go to Xiangjiang to buy a building?”

Jiang Peiyao scratched her little head, she remembered that property prices in Xiangjiang were super expensive.

“Your cousin saw that the property prices were still soaring last year. She's got over ten billion in her card. If she doesn't invest and manage her finances, even sleeping doesn't feel right,” said Chen Pingsheng as he poured her a glass of 1945 Romantic Conti, a wine that rarely circulated in the market.

It was his wife who had spent three million to purchase it from one of the top wealthy women in Water Cloud Space.

Now, she went to Xiangjiang along with two of Water Cloud Space's top wealthy women.

Those two Capital City moms were just thinking of sweeping up gold.

Seriously, those who were still speculating in real estate at this stage were basically not the real wealthy people anymore.

It was those middle-class folks with slightly better conditions.

The investment choices of the top-tier rich strictly followed national policies.

As long as they ensured they were not wrong in the overall direction, they wouldn't deviate too much.

Starting from 2015, not only their family fled the real estate market.

Most of the high-consuming top wealthy women at Water Cloud Space did the same.

They sold off most of their real estate holdings.

Now, these people have turned their focus to gold.

Joining hands, they could clear out the circulating gold in a region within a day.

“Brother-in-law, didn't my cousin just buy a villa in Xiangjiang in January?”

“Yeah, she bought it for over eight billion,” said Chen Pingsheng. “I saw a comment on the internet yesterday asking why the rich in Xiangjiang don't like to live in villas. I replied, 'Because they're not rich enough.'

“Those hilltop villas will probably start at over ten billion in a few years. Here in Capital City, a billionaire can be called a rich person, but there, you could spend your entire fortune and only be able to buy a 1,000 square feet luxury home.”

Jiang Peiyao found it so exaggerated. Back in the countryside,

she could never have imagined that the disparity within the rich class could be so huge.

And her brother-in-law's family was already living in a villa there.

Clearly, they were far beyond the level of ordinarily wealthy people.

“If you ever go to Xiangjiang, you could also stay in our hilltop villa; your cousin has left a room there for you.”

In Xiangjiang, the difference between heaven and hell is the difference between the top and the bottom of the mountain.

At the top, you sit on the mountain and gaze at the sea; at the bottom, a family of six squeezes into a ten-square-meter pigeonhole.

That kind of life is simply suffocating.

Having a big room of your own on a Xiangjiang hill, that's already a synonym for paradise,

at least for most people there.

“I've never been there. If my cousin buys a building and doesn't live in it, that would be such a waste. Renting it out could earn at least two to three hundred thousand a month,” suggested Jiang Peiyao tentatively.

Her intentions were definitely good but pretty much useless.

A hilltop villa worth over ten billion, if rented out, wouldn't be touched for less than two million in rent per month.

This kind of wine, worth millions per bottle, doesn't even taste that interesting.

She never developed a taste for it as a child, so drinking it as an adult is basically just to pass the loneliness.

Chen Pingsheng sealed the bottle again, “Don't worry, this time your cousin isn't going to buy a building. She's going to buy an office building. Our family is going to move Tenghui Capital there and also establish a Tengying Group office in Xiangjiang.”

With over ten billion, most office buildings could be bought in the inland, as long as they're not too tall.

In the most bustling business areas of Xiangjiang, it could probably only buy four or five floors.

Barely enough.

The reason for moving Tenghui Capital there was mainly that this capital firm held shares of all the companies under its umbrella.

It belongs to the true lifeline of the group; moving to Xiangjiang is clearly safer.

Xiangjiang is known as the land of financial freedom, a paradise for finance.

If we talk about safety, it is definitely far superior to the mainland here.

This time, buying the building was to smoothly transition Tenghui Capital over there.

It was a plan set last year, just being implemented this year.

Ordinary companies can't afford to buy, let alone rent, a building in Xiangjiang.

Jiang Peiyao strove to slowly understand all this, which was difficult for her. For Chen An'an, the little kid brought up amidst these talks,

it was all very simple.

That's the advantage of being born into wealth. Environment really does determine a lot.

Jiang Peiyao saw him alone at home and asked if he had eaten.

Chen Pingsheng was planning to order takeout. His wife wasn't home and he didn't feel like cooking, so what else was there to eat if not takeout?

Ordinary people might spend a dozen or so yuan on a meal, his could just be a few dozen yuan.

Or he could just pair it with a bottle of wine worth millions as a drink.

What else could he do?

Jiang Peiyao opened the refrigerator and saw that it was full of vegetables.

Clearly, her cousin had prepared everything at home before leaving.

Jiang Peiyao wasn't just beautiful, her cooking skills were also quite impressive.

She used to cook every day back in her rural home, and now whipping up a few simple dishes was a breeze.

And very fast.
