The Birth of Shanghai's First Conglomerate

Chapter 102 Entering the circle
Jiang Peiyao's dormitory was extremely small.

There were six people living in one room, in bunk beds.

She didn't have much stuff; two people could easily carry it over.

Chen Pingsheng waited downstairs, and after a while, when they came down with their things, he prepared to drive away.

The place he used to rent wasn't too far from here, but he moved to Shijingshan after his living conditions improved.

Jiang Peiyao also got on the bus. The big black car was a bit exaggerated, and she was a little nervous after sitting in it.

Guo Wen was quick-witted and immediately ran over to find her.

"Peiyao, can I go with you?"

She realized that this small, run-down factory wouldn't amount to much, and that going out with Jiang Peiyao would definitely allow her to see a bigger world.

Jiang Peiyao glanced at Chen Pingsheng; Guo Wen was her only friend in the capital.

I really want to go out with her.

Chen Pingsheng nodded and let her get in the car. In order not to waste time, Guo Wen simply left all her things in the dormitory behind.

The group set off and left.

This is an urban village, and the roads aren't paved; they're the old-fashioned rural roads.

It wasn't exactly bumpy, nor was it perfectly smooth.

Chen An'an, in the front passenger seat, was still reveling in his dashing heroic battle just now.

She stood up, looked at Jiang Peiyao, and asked, "Auntie, wasn't I amazing just now?"

"You still have the nerve to say it?"

Chen Pingsheng couldn't stand it anymore and turned to ask her, "What's with this straw hat of yours? It's only worth five yuan at most in our village. You spent over eight thousand yuan on this thing. Are you stupid?"

Chen An'an felt that her father was becoming increasingly tactless; was this the time to discuss the price of hats?

However, she still explained, "Dad, this is what our classmates are talking about. Eight thousand is normal, right?"

"Normal my foot!"

Chen Pingsheng cursed, "Adding a 'Cool' badge makes it no longer a straw hat, and those fat leather pants of yours cost 11,000 yuan, are you stupid?"

She has her own pocket money, and Chen Pingsheng usually doesn't interfere with her spending.

The main problem is that after spending so much money, the item turned out to be so ugly.

He simply couldn't tolerate it.

The little brat has absolutely no sense of aesthetics.

Chen An'an ignored him, still fuming and reveling in her captivating entrance.

Jiang Peiyao rarely saw her cousin's father; they would only get together at her grandfather's house during holidays.

I knew his family was wealthy, but I didn't know they were this rich.

An'an can easily buy a useless item that costs them almost half a year's salary.

This is an exaggeration.

"Brother-in-law, how is my cousin doing?"

"She's due to give birth at the end of next month, and she's still resting at home."

Chen Pingsheng also asked her, "By the way, why didn't you call ahead when you came to Beijing?"

"I never thought my phone would be stolen on the train. I'm so useless."

Jiang Peiyao lowered her head, looking somewhat embarrassed.

"It's nothing," Chen Pingsheng comforted him. "You've just never traveled far from home. What are your plans after you come to the capital?"

"I want to find a job here so I can work and earn money at the same time."

Looking at her, Chen Pingsheng saw that she was so beautiful at such a young age, with clear eyes, curved eyelashes, cherry-like lips, and a great figure.

He said, "You'd be perfect for the entertainment industry."

"Huh?" Jiang Peiyao knew she was pretty, but she had never thought about developing a career in the entertainment industry.

The main problem is that I don't even dare to dream of it. I'm just from a rural area with little education, how could I possibly think about entering the entertainment industry?

"Auntie, you're so beautiful! My dad owns an entertainment company, and my tutor is a big star. You can be a big star someday too."

Jiang Peiyao dared not even imagine it, but she was still very surprised.

When they arrived at their home, Song Yanxi came out to greet her little cousin.

Jiang Peiyao has been beautiful since she was a child.

Countless people in the village and at school admired her; she always attracted a lot of attention wherever she went.

"cousin."

Jiang Peiyao was very happy to finally meet her cousin.

As for Guo Wen next to her, he was already numb.

He drives luxury cars and lives in a big villa. This friend of mine, whom I haven't known for long, really does have a wealthy relative.

“Peiyao, you came to the capital and didn’t even come to your cousin’s place first. If you do this again, I won’t talk to you anymore.”

"Okay, cousin."

Jiang Peiyao held her hand and giggled. She had always liked to stick close to her older cousin since she was little.

It's the same when you grow up.

"You haven't eaten yet, have you? Give Gao Hu a call, let's go to Boiling Sheep together."

Song Wu was there too, along with his sister Chen Qi. With so many people, it was too much trouble to cook at home.

It's convenient to eat out.

After Gao Hu returned the car to him, he went and drove the Porsche Cayenne.

Since Song Yanxi can't drive right now, Chen Pingsheng lent her this car first.

Boiling Sheep has already opened five stores in Shijingshan District, and five more will open simultaneously in July along the Second Ring Road.

He's maintaining a standard of investing ten million every month until the end of the year.

Boiling Sheep's business is booming at noon, and there's always a queue.

They naturally didn't need it, so they reserved a large private room.

Chen Pingsheng told them to order whatever they wanted, since it was his own restaurant.

Jiang Peiyao likes to eat fish, so she ordered a fish head with chopped chili peppers.

Song Wu likes to eat pig's feet, and the Dongpo pork knuckle here is especially good.

His wife can't eat too spicy food now, so she ordered two bowls of congee.

Needless to say, Chen An'an is a scoundrel; she likes anything her Uncle Gao Hu cooks.

If her father made it, eating a bowl without saying a word is the best proof.

She usually drinks at least two bowls of rice.

She used her actions to show that her father's skills were lacking.

Chen Qi is looking at houses again recently. She made a big profit in Shuiyunjian last month, and she will get at least ten million this month.

That's how arrogant they are with only 25% of the shares.

This is even with the store having set aside 30 million yuan as a risk fund.

That is, if we deduct 30 million from last month's card money and don't distribute it yet, there will still be about 40 million left.

"Sister-in-law, do you think it's better for me to buy my third house in the Second Ring Road area or in Shijingshan District as it is now?"

"The housing prices in the Second Ring Road area have already risen to over 50,000 or even 60,000 yuan, and in Shijingshan it's almost 30,000 yuan."

Song Yanxi thought for a moment and said, "It would be better if you bought a house in the Second Ring Road. It would be more convenient for you to live there in the future. You already have two houses in Shijingshan, so there is no need to buy one here."

Chen Pingsheng looked at his younger sister: "Chen Qi, I've noticed you're getting richer and richer these days."

Chen Qi chuckled: "That's all thanks to you, brother. I will admire you so much in my life, like a never-ending river."

"Don't come here."

Chen Pingsheng put down the toothpick and said, "This won't do. What's the use of making so much money if you're not even married yet? Who knows which bastard will benefit from it in the future? Let me tell you, if you find a boyfriend in the future without my approval, you must break up with him immediately."

Marrying the right person is extremely important for a woman.

His sister's current situation is complicated and hard to explain.

Those who are well-off in Beijing look down on people from other places; their sense of superiority is ridiculously strong.

Locals with average means earn only seven or eight thousand yuan a month, relying entirely on their family's house for support; they are naturally not hardworking.

People like that definitely won't get along.

big head.

He couldn't think of anyone who would be a good match for his younger sister, who was already quite wealthy at such a young age.

"Brother, don't worry, I definitely won't look for anything randomly."

"As long as you know."

Chen Pingsheng also reminded Jiang Peiyao that she was really too beautiful, almost as beautiful as her older cousin when she was young.

Even in the entertainment industry, where beauties abound, her looks would still stand out.

While not far ahead, they are definitely among the best.

Guo Wen was truly at a loss. She remained silent, learning something new from every conversation she overheard.

Having a wealthy relative really makes all the difference; they can easily make everyone around them rich.

It is clear.

Since he specifically reminded Jiang Peiyao, it means he values ​​her quite a bit.

Otherwise, he probably wouldn't have said anything; I didn't see his sister-in-law mention it at all.

I have no idea what's going on.

Chen Pingsheng thought for a moment and then said, "Peiyao, you're still young. There are a lot of scumbags in Beijing. You can stay at my house for now, and I'll find someone to train your acting skills. You can enter the entertainment industry later. My Tengying Entertainment has just signed an artist, so I'll sign you over to be her apprentice."

This is already a very high starting point; once you enter the industry, you'll have big companies protecting you.

Some people even personally guide them.

Chen Pingsheng genuinely believed that she had the potential to be a star, a big star at that.

With looks like that, which man wouldn't be mesmerized?

We must protect them first, so they can fight for him in the future.

As for how far she can go, that depends on her own destiny.

"As for your friend, let's all start as assistants together."

Guo Wen's looks are quite ordinary; he definitely wouldn't be able to land a leading role.

If you work hard enough, you can definitely become a decent supporting actor in the entertainment industry.

The two of them going into the circle together would be a good way to look after each other.

It's about time that his Tencent Entertainment started its own artist training program.

If we cultivate more famous talents, Tencent's valuation will be higher in the future.

He makes money in the entertainment industry almost like he's cheating; there's no random multiplication.

To make big money, we'll have to rely on Tencent's future IPO valuation.

He arranged things for his wife's younger cousin with just a few words; he's a bit domineering and acts more like a patriarch.

No one has an opinion.

At their age, how could they know what choices to make?

If his sister doesn't listen to him and blindly finds a boyfriend, he will definitely cut off all her financial support.
