Chapter 105 Good things are coming

Late April.

Only after the four Shuiyunjian stores opened at the same time did Chen Pingsheng go to Tengying headquarters again.

There are more and more employees here, and the scale is getting bigger and bigger.

Artist training classes are basically available in all major entertainment and film and television companies, so it’s nothing new.

He was just doing what everyone else was doing.

As for whether we can cultivate another big star, it depends on luck and fate.

The entertainment industry is like this: small success depends on luck, big success depends on resources, and if you want to become extremely popular, you have to rely on fate.

However, with the opening of the four Shuiyunjian stores, he invested another 90 million yuan in the Third and Fourth Ring Roads.

At the same time, nine more stores are expected to open before October.

We have now recruited more than 300 beauticians, and they are still trained uniformly for half a year as before.

At this point, the 140 million yuan he had previously planned for the development of Shuiyunjian had been almost spent.

The marketing department also has statistics, since Shuiyunjian only serves the top beauty and health market.

Even in super first-tier cities, it is only suitable to open 25 to 30 stores.

No more than that.

If the Beijing market is to be fully developed, it is estimated that another investment of between 100 million and 150 million yuan will be required.

Later we will explore other first-tier markets.

These are all things to be considered in the second half of the year. At present, Shuiyunjian’s market planning and expansion in the first half of the year have been completed.

The next step is to perfect the details.

It’s been another month since I last came to Tencent’s headquarters. The people here seem to have no boss and their work is so easy.

Going to work on time and clocking out on time is Tencent's daily routine.

There is no performance appraisal, let alone any KPI indicators.

Even Bai Xin herself often lamented that Tencent Pictures is the most unconventional company in the entertainment industry.

Apart from Zhao Liying who was busy filming, the rest were just chatting and waiting for their salary to be paid on the 10th of each month.

If you say it doesn't make money, you are totally wrong.

The boss has never failed in his investment.

We finally set up an artist training class and everyone thought it would be busy, but in the end the boss never showed up.

Well, everyone is indifferent again.

The busiest department is the Internet Marketing Department that Jiang Yile is in charge of.

She is a little busy because she has to help her boss with online promotion for several other companies.

Just a little bit.

After all, this department is not just her, but there are more than twenty young people.

"Pei Yao, where are we going to eat lunch?"

Bai Xin got a raise, a huge one, and she thought her boss would exploit her to death.

Who knew that when I turned around, I couldn't see anyone anymore.

She just eats for the sake of eating all day long.

There are still many crews coming to them to ask for investment, and Tencent Film will not invest money without the boss's consent.

Jiang Peiyao had just finished her get out of class. She was still very frugal and usually had her work lunch downstairs when she had nothing to do.

"Isn't there a buffet downstairs? They've changed their food recently, and the cooking is pretty good."

"I know. They were sent by Feiyangyang."

Bai Xin said, "With my income, if I don't go out and spend money all day long, I'm afraid the economy won't grow."

Jiang Peiyao smiled foolishly, thinking that what she said was quite funny.

The skyrocketing wages are also intended to boost the GDP of Beijing.

Just making excuses for spending money.

When Chen Pingsheng arrived, Bai Xin immediately stopped in her tracks, her expression extremely exaggerated: "Oh my God, uncle, you are finally here."

"Why, the company won't function if I don't come here?"

Chen Pingsheng hadn't seen his little cousin for a while and found that she seemed to have gained a little weight, and in the right places.

It’s pretty good, only two sizes smaller than Yang Mi.

Huge potential.

"Peiyao, how are you doing with your studies lately?"

"It's okay. The teacher is very responsible in teaching." Jiang Peiyao smiled.

Chen Pingsheng nodded and didn't ask any more questions.

"How are the arrangements for the artist training class going?"

"Uncle, there are quite a lot of people who signed up. After three rounds of selection, I only kept these few."

Bai Xin turned on the computer and asked him to watch the video.

Each of them took a personal video. Chen Pingsheng clicked on the first one, and found that she looked pretty good.

But what's with her laughter?

She was a pretty little girl, she laughed so hard that she squealed like a pig.

"What's this called? It's quite interesting."

"Bai Lu, a small internet celebrity. I think she has a talent for comedy."

"A little bit, indeed."

He looked back again and had to admit that being a boss in the entertainment industry really allowed him to see all the beautiful women in the world.

Funny, cool, charming, cute, and even a top female student.

At a glance, there is everything.

There are also some plastic surgery faces, which are beautiful but do not look natural.

She can't make too many expressions. What's the point of keeping a woman like this?

Chen Pingsheng simply dismissed them all, not even one with a plastic surgery face.

"During the training period, they are paid 3,000 yuan a month and are regularly arranged to go to Feiyangyang for a dance."

"Boss, what does this mean?"

Bai Xin was confused, with question marks all over her face.

If such a group of beautiful women were to dance in a restaurant, those men would not even have time to eat.

Chen Pingsheng said, "You think I'm just paying you for nothing? Most of these people will be eliminated in a year. While they're still here, of course they should go shoot more commercials for me. Wouldn't it be good to use them as living signs? And by the way, I can promote them online."

Well, they're used to their boss not playing by the rules.

If other bosses hired such a group of beautiful young ladies, they would probably think about the unspoken rules every day.

Their boss simply arranged for these women to do hard labor.

"Uncle, we haven't invested in a TV series for a long time."

"There's no rush. If there's something good, we'll invest. If there's nothing good, we'll just do what we have to do."

In the era of traffic, the salaries of celebrities are rising faster than housing prices. In the past, a big production could be filmed with tens of millions of dollars.

Now without a small goal, I can’t even invite a decent star.

Chen Pingsheng decided to invest all his money in his real estate business for the time being.

The main reason is that I didn’t see any crew that made particularly much money.

Otherwise, it would cost tens of millions at least.

"Oh." Bai Xin said softly.

After Chen Pingsheng came and found that Teng Ying didn't have much to do, he took Jiang Peiyao to his house in the afternoon.

His wife is going to give birth in a month, and the family needs someone to take care of them. His mother Peng Ying will come over in the next two days.

Besides, May Day is coming soon, and Chen Anan will also have a holiday.

That little brat is restless all day long, and the closest relatives to our family come over more frequently.

It was mainly from the mother-in-law in Beijing, who took advantage of Song Yanxi's pregnancy to send her all kinds of gifts.

The saying "A rich man has distant relatives even though he lives in the mountains" is definitely not a joke.

If he still sold durian on the street like before, these relatives in Beijing who felt so superior would never come to give him gifts.

It’s good enough if we don’t take a detour.

Now, they’re all here.

They all asked about his wife's well-being and even wanted to take care of her toenails.

Don't think it's an exaggeration, this is the reality.

Now, if his wife just frowns slightly, a large number of relatives will analyze the various meanings of these frowns.

Then give perfectly targeted advice.

This is what it’s like when you have a lot of money. Every time you move a hair on your body, there are countless people who want to kneel down and take care of it.
