Ma Jia was right in one thing.

That is, the people of the Chen family are very low-key now. If it weren't for Xia Yan, no one would know Chen Jiye's identity.

It was also because of Xia Yan that the news about the third generation heir of the Chen family spread throughout the school.

Most of them just watch the show with their mobile phones, but those who are influential in the school do much more than that.

Girls' dormitory, second floor.

Three girls gathered together to eat watermelon, and another girl was practicing body shape with her butt sticking out at the head of the bed.

She is also recognized as the campus beauty with the best figure in the university, Si Ke.

Si Ke is already a sophomore, a senior of Chen Jiye, and also studies economics.

"Si Ke, you're a local of Shanghai, so you should know more about the Chen family, right?"

"What do you want to ask?"

Si Ke spends an hour every day exercising to maintain his perfect figure.

What outsiders talk about most about her is her perfect buttocks. If she goes out wearing tight pants, I wonder how many boys will laugh at her.

Just the image of her raised buttocks from behind is enough to make countless boys addicted to her and unable to stop.

"Is the Chen family really as exaggerated as what is said online?"

“Is this an exaggeration?”

Si Ke bent over and stuck out his hips as he said, "The Chen family is countless times more exaggerated than you can imagine. My family is in Jinshan. The headquarters within a 30-kilometer radius of my home, including high-end residential areas, hotels, commercial centers, etc., at least half of them belong to the Chen family."

"His family is so powerful, how come he goes to the same school as us?"

"You're not so foolish as to think that just because they go to the same school as us, they have access to the same educational resources, right?"

Si Ke was born in Jinshan. She grew up listening to the legend of the Chen family. If she were to use the simplest words to describe Jinshan.

That’s probably the Chen family in Jinshan.

"The Chen family trains their own heirs, and the starting resources are tens of billions and over. You must have heard of the two mountains, the seven-star hotel in Magic City, right?

"Decades later, this hotel is still at the top of Shanghai's hotel industry. Back then, the investment was over 40 billion yuan, and this was just a high school gift from the founder of the Chen family to his second daughter.

"The standards they set for cultivating family heirs are so high you can't even imagine. I don't know why the third-generation heir of the Chen family chose to attend the same school as us, but one thing is certain: the Chen family has invested a minimum of 20 billion in educational resources in him. I mean, at his current age, not including his future."

"Tsk tsk~ It turns out that people from the same school have different fates."

The other two girls in the dormitory also sighed, "Si Ke, you are so beautiful, especially your perky butt. Any boy who sees you would be unable to stop lusting after you. Have you ever thought about marrying into the Chen family and becoming a future daughter-in-law of a wealthy family?"

"Stop daydreaming. If it were so easy to marry into the Chen family, how could it be my turn?"

After a pause, Si Ke continued, "Their family did have a daughter-in-law of ordinary birth, who is now very famous. However, she and the only son of that man were childhood sweethearts. No matter how much her mother objected, it was useless. Later, with the full support of his father, she was able to marry into the Chen family smoothly and became the daughter-in-law of the most powerful family."

"Why don't we all go and take a look during their freshman military training later?"

Si Ke's eyes lit up, and he was still interested.

Not only she is interested, many other people are interested.

Boys on campus like to rank the campus beauties the most. Si Ke ranks third because of her perfect butt and impeccable face.

The first and second place winners are a senior who is already in her senior year and has been away from school for a long time, and the second place winner is also a junior.

She rarely shows her face in front of outsiders, and the only few times she was photographed were when she was eating in the cafeteria without makeup.

No matter how many years have passed, everyone still likes girls who are natural, pure, and preferably a little protective.

Military training for freshmen is nothing uncommon. It will be held every year when freshmen enter the school.

Obviously, because of a post by the third-generation heir of the Chen family that went viral online, this military training attracted countless female students to watch.

Everyone was pointing and whispering outside the playground, perhaps most of them were looking for Chen Jiye's location.

It must be said that Jiye was under a lot of pressure. He was not used to being watched by so many people.

But Xia Yan on the other side didn't have this worry. She was like a trouble-maker, and after she got rid of the trouble, the rest was none of her business.

During the breaks in the military training, everyone sat in groups of three or four.

Xia Yan was surrounded by two good friends who lived in the same dormitory with her.

Both of them are girls with short hair and are usually quite tough. When they see a handsome guy, they will whisper about his double doors, eight-pack abs, and that he must be very durable.

After saying that, he chuckled softly.

They are not top-notch in terms of looks, so naturally they don't dare to think about marrying into a wealthy family.

"Xia Yan, I think Chen Jiye isn't particularly handsome, but he's quite good. Why did you reveal his identity in front of all the girls in the school? Wouldn't that just give you countless competitors?"

Xia Yan bahed and said, "I just want to expose him. I also hate my family's arrangement. Why should I, Xia Yan, be tied to Chen Jiye for the rest of my life? I just don't accept it."

The short-haired girl shook her head. "You're so stupid! This is a blessing that so many people would beg for, but you just push it away."

Xia Yan snorted. "Whoever wants to beg can do so. I admit that Chen Jiye's mother and father are both very capable, not to mention his grandfather, who is an undisputed legend in the business world. Look, I've made such a big fuss about this, and his grandfather hasn't said a word. He probably thinks that Chen Jiye will eventually regain his position as the chief heir of the third generation. By then, he won't be able to keep a low profile even if he wants to, and will be destined to live in the spotlight."

"Do you know where his grandfather is?"

"In our school, I'm not the only one who knows. There are many wealthy third-generations among the freshmen. That exaggerated and ostentatious Ma Jia can't even get a number. The others are just not as high-profile as him."

Those who can become wealthy to the third or fourth generation are all like the Chen family. They have extremely high foundation, and the family culture, including the training of heirs, has formed its own education system.

Unless they say it themselves, these people are extremely low-key and approachable.

Of course, their approachability comes more from the condescending attitude of the superiors towards the lower classes.

Just like the king won't bet on three.

Senior leaders never criticize lower-level employees personally.

The short-haired girl's eyes lit up, "Are there really so many rich kids coming to our freshman class this year?"

"Not only are there rich kids, but there are also many heirs from wealthy families."

Xia Yan said indifferently: "These people all came with an obvious purpose, which is to listen to that person's class.

"Look at that inconspicuous boy with a plain smile on his face. He is from the Huang family in Chaozhou.

"His family has great influence in education and charity. This person should be the second son of the fourth generation of the Huang family. And there's that short, quiet guy over there.

"He is from the Liang family in Zhongshan, Guangdong. The Liang family has great influence in culture, politics, business and other aspects.

"It's usually difficult for outsiders to even see any of these family members, and now they're all gathered together. Why do you think they've come?"

The short-haired girl was able to open her eyes this time. With Xia Yan's introduction, she was able to get to know these low-key and extraordinary children from aristocratic families.

As the reform and opening-up period goes on, those top families are well aware of the importance of keeping a low profile.

Even if they only began to rise in the 1980s, they still have a history of at least 70 years.

Not to mention that many families returned from overseas after the Southern Tour in the 1990s.

These people have many industries overseas and they are developing very well.

After returning to China in the 1990s, the accumulation was even faster.

At this stage, they have become so huge that it is hard for outsiders to imagine and extremely difficult to shake.

As for the idea that rich families are prone to bankruptcy as shown in TV dramas, that is pure nonsense.

They are just nouveau riche, while wealthy families include those that have reached the threshold of aristocratic families.

As long as there is no major problem of taking the wrong side, it will be difficult for it to collapse in ten or twenty years, let alone a hundred years.

Now everyone is smart and every family has a prodigal son fund.

If the offspring don’t have much ability, a living allowance of over a million yuan every month will be enough.

He wouldn't squander tens or even hundreds of billions of his family's money in a few years just because he wanted to surpass his father.

Among the new students, there are not only three generations of heirs of the Chen family, but also the Huang and Liang families, two of the top ten families in Guangdong.

This shows how valuable this batch of freshmen is.

After the military training was over, the coach organized them to perform.

This segment was also loved by many freshmen, especially Xia Yan's casual dance yesterday, which was simply stunning.

Today the coach called Xia Yan to perform again, just to warm up the atmosphere for everyone.

Xia Yan had no objection, but she had already achieved her goal and now she didn't want to attract too much attention.

After patting her butt and standing up, she actually jumped on her butt and wrote big characters, and then she imitated the quacking of a duck and stretched her neck, which was as weird as it could be.

"Haha, Campus Beauty Xia is so cute."

"I thought she could dance, but she only did this..."

"This woman is a bit mentally ill!"

Chen Jiye cursed inwardly. It was because of Xia Yan that he had been stared at by many people, which made him feel uncomfortable all over.

Now Xia Yan is doing this again, what is she trying to do?

Xia Yan doesn't care about his thoughts. She just wants to be beautiful alone, no matter how many generations of heirs you have.

“Thank you everyone…”

She also bent down to express her gratitude, thanking him from every angle. When she bent down to the angle of Chen Jiye, she happened to see him out of the corner of her eye.

Xia Yan's half-bent waist was immediately raised again, and she left with a few grunts like a female gangster.

"Brother Ye...this little Xia girl is so ungrateful that she actually made provocative gestures towards you."

Ma Jia has already regarded himself as Chen Jiye's number one adopted son, and as an adopted son, one must learn to observe people's words and expressions.

Chen Jiye was speechless. "Didn't you want to pursue her yesterday? How can you say this to her again today? Is that appropriate?"

Ma Jia was embarrassed, but he was thick-skinned. "I don't have any thoughts about her. Isn't it because she's so brave?"

Chen Jiye is not the kind of rich kid who bullies others by taking advantage of his power. On the contrary, he has an ordinary heart that is difficult for ordinary people to understand.

Even Chen Pingsheng said that Jiye was the one in the family who was most like him.

This shows how highly he is regarded.

Although Chen Jiye didn't like Xia Yan, he didn't want people around him to insult her so casually.

"Ma Jia, I still like your exaggerated way of showing off your wealth. Please recover for a while."

"Okay, I'll restore it to factory settings immediately."

Ma Jia let his hair fall back, and once again let his character return to that of the foolish son who got rich overnight.

He loves performing on stage the most. What if some blind school beauty falls in love with his looks?

Ma Jia went on stage. Because Xia Yan was acting funny before, he went on stage to sing a song called "My Family is Really Rich", which was not at all out of place.

As for Chen Jiye, he just sat quietly in the audience, saying nothing, and applauded those who performed well.

After the military training was over, Ma Jia invited people to have a midnight snack together.

There is a reason why he is so fat. Eating more is a blessing, so he is very blessed.

Chen Jiye went to find his grandfather. Chen Pingsheng also liked to watch his military training. Most of his hair had turned white.

He is almost seventy years old and is really in his old age!

There is not much left in my life, and I have to watch the little Jiye I raised since he was a child become a successful person.

Another twenty years were spent keeping an eye on the Tengying Group, including Jingyan Island, to ensure that there were no problems.

The rest of the matter can only be left to the younger generations of the Chen family.

When he leaves, those industries under Tengying Group that are related to people's livelihood will inevitably be transformed from private enterprises to state-owned enterprises.

This is probably what he has to accomplish in the remaining time of his life.

Jiye came to him because of his identity being exposed at school.

Chen Pingsheng was drinking tea in his office as usual. He didn't say much, just said:

"You've been on Economic Research Island for too many years, and you kept a low profile during high school, which means the outside world knows very little about you.

"This is actually not conducive to your future succession to the family business.

"The last time your mother came to see me, she said she would retire completely by the age of fifty at the latest. Calculating the time, that's not long."

An An used to want to retire before she turned 45, but now Tengying Group is too big and Jingyan Island will not be fully developed for long.

It's untimely for her to retire so early.

However, he will definitely retire at the age of 50 and will only retain the position of Vice President of the Economic Research Island.

He had to hand over all his positions, including Chairman of Tengfei AI Mobile Phones and Chairman of Tengying Entertainment.

Before An An retires, he will definitely pave the way for his successor, but the prerequisite is that he himself has the ability.

If they don’t have enough capabilities, Tengying Group, including Jingyan Island, will no longer be controlled by the Chen family.

The opinions of the group’s senior management are also very important.

As the company develops, the family's control over the group, including Jingyan Island, will become weaker and weaker.

This was done deliberately by Chen Pingsheng.

Although Tengying Group was started by him, he did not want it to end with the Chen family.

The best way is undoubtedly to get rid of family control and move towards a completely fair and just selection mechanism.

For example, Zhang Wanyi now has a strong control over Tengying Group, including Jingyan Island.

Only if the Chen family can produce a truly top-notch talent in the future can it regain control of Tengying Group, including Jingyan Island.

Chen Pingsheng estimated that this probability would be as low as it could be after he left.

It’s nothing, the Chen family is already too rich.

Having a lot of money naturally has many advantages, but it also has many disadvantages.

The day he leaves, An An and Er Ya will have to shoulder the primary responsibility for stabilizing the development of the Chen family.

As long as Xiao Jiye can come out among the three generations, the Chen family can at least continue its glory for another hundred years.
