Reaching the age of thirty, my income randomly doubled

As of now, he has allocated 4.5 billion to this project.

Benefiting hundreds of thousands of rural residents.

Unlike Wang County, Magic City is truly a global metropolis.

Everywhere it displays its elegance and rampant materialism.

In this place, if you have money, countless beauties and endless university belles are at your disposal.

From some point onward, the most poignant love stories, once hailed in songs, have become vulnerable in the face of money.

2016 was a destined to be an extraordinary year for Tengying Group.

They decisively rose in the business world and defeated Huayi and the legendary LeEco one after another.

While claiming the top spot in the entertainment industry, they also established a solid footing in the tech world.

And they became the fastest-rising mega-corporation nationally.

This time back, the first issue to handle was their investment of three billion in Magic City's Golden Mountain to build a five-star hotel for employees.

It's opened.

Chen Pingsheng did not attend the ribbon-cutting but sent Yang Mi instead.

With the opening of the employee-exclusive five-star hotel, it meant that employees' parents visiting from afar no longer had to pay for a hotel stay.

They could stay for free at the employee welfare hotel and enjoy full complimentary services, including food and lodging.

The reason for having Yang Mi cut the ribbon was mainly due to her high-profile status.

Recently, Tengying Group's influence in swaying public opinion to expedite the investigation into LeEco had already dissatisfied many people.

Even among individual investors, quite a few attributed the root of all issues to Tengying Group.

At this time, he surely needed to vigorously promote public welfare projects.

It was also used to alleviate certain undesirable thoughts that "individuals" should not have.

Truth be told, Tengying Group had a myriad of shareholders, including many tycoons from the capital world.

With the strong support of families with profound heritage like Tong Zelan, as well as a large number of top wealthy ladies from Capital City investing, they weren't afraid of minor troubles.

As the saying goes, the greater the storm, the more expensive the fish.

His use of Yang Mi to officiate the ribbon-cutting ceremony for Tengying's welfare hotel was also to mitigate some of the bigwigs' dissatisfaction with Tengying Group.

Following the opening of the Golden Mountain five-star hotel, a private primary school in Capital City with a five billion investment also opened.

Zhao Liying was the one invited to cut the ribbon there.

The private school included kindergarten and other infrastructure facilities, again provided for the employees.

The simultaneous opening of two such large public welfare projects still caused quite a stir domestically.

Counting the eight billion investment last year in the Water Cloud Space public library and the welfare hotel in Capital City,

He has realistically invested twenty billion into charity and welfare in two years.

No matter how you looked at it, this was a company with a conscience.

Unlike their flourishing success, Huayi was particularly miserable during this period.

Kicked hard at the final hurdle, they were thoroughly dashed against the wall by Jia Yueting, who was returning next week.

Calling them the number one tragedy of 2016 probably wouldn't raise many objections.

In just the week of his return, Huayi's stock value had completely fallen below the hundred billion mark.

Compared to their once trillion value, it was a difference between heaven and earth.

Now, without him needing to lift a finger, Huayi was being pinned down by LeEco against the wall.

If by February he didn't pay off that bank mortgage loan, Huang Zhongshi's Huayi headquarters building, the Xiangjiang super-villa, and the huge Siheyuan in Capital City would all be subjected to foreclosure.

By then, he would certainly join the excitement.

As for now, the priority was to take care of the immediate tasks at hand.

...

As time leisurely passed, the Chinese New Year was upon them.

Only their family remained in Magic City; the others had gone back for the New Year holiday.

While Chen Pingsheng was wrapping dumplings at home, he also planned to whip up a few specialty dishes.

The spoiled brat helped on the side, and the little fart kid, with her little backside sticking out, wanted to cause trouble over there.

But her sister took her aside to behave quietly.

"Dad, can you make some egg fried rice later?"

"With so many dishes already, why do you still want egg fried rice?"

"I want to eat it, I haven't had your egg fried rice in so long!"

"Okay," Chen Pingsheng asked her, "where's your mom? Why isn't she coming down to cook?"

"She's upstairs crunching numbers, the kind where she drools while doing it."

Chen An'an laughed, always thinking her mom was even more of a money-grubber than her.

Only about half of the 20% of the Tengying Group shares had been cashed out, amounting to around eighty or ninety billion.

Song Yanxi didn't even know how to spend it.

"Tell her to come down. What's the point of constantly crunching numbers for such a small amount of money?"

Sure... Chen An'an quickly ran upstairs. Song Yanxi didn't have much to do now.

The group was on holiday, and Water Cloud Space was as well, with a 15-day New Year break.

They wouldn't be back until the ninth day of the new year.

The year's busyness culminates in the desire to have a good new year; people need ample vacation time.

After all, many will spend a day or two just on the journey back home.
