"Chen Qi is really at a disadvantage in marrying."
See... Chen Pingsheng knew that this topic was inevitable.
Not only did my grandparents come over to talk about it, but even my third uncle and aunt were talking about it too.
What’s the market situation like now?
A rural girl needs tens of millions of yuan in dowry to get married.
But when it came to his younger sister, he spent tens of millions of dollars to marry her.
Even dogs can’t figure it out.
Chen Pingsheng didn't want to discuss this topic any further, mainly because he was upset.
When the topic comes up, why make yourself unhappy?
Peng Ying was actually okay, mainly because she thought Hu Lin was a really good person.
She is a teacher and has a high level of education, and their wedding is about to begin.
What’s the point of saying that?
She is now also investing in stocks with Liu Fen and earning a pretty good income.
I definitely don't want to go back to my hometown in the countryside. I'm used to living in Beijing and my son and daughter are here. Who would want to go back?
"What's the harm? Xiaoqi is now married to a high-level intellectual. Don't say such things when Hu Lin is here."
Peng Ying didn't let them discuss any more here.
When Chen Qi came over, he also told Chen Pingsheng that many of Hu Lin's college classmates had come.
Ask him if he wants to meet him.
There is something wrong.
He came to meet his old classmates on his own.
Do you really think he just sits here drinking tea all day?
Chen Qi didn't know what to say. Her brother had so many companies and all the relatives from his hometown came.
Obviously unable to get away.
She went to talk to Hu Lin and told him that they had very little contact with his college classmates.
The only ones I have a good relationship with are the two in my dormitory.
Now one of them works in sales in a small company, and the other teaches in his hometown.
In addition to them, some old classmates who I rarely contacted also came this time.
Maybe he heard some news, which is why he came here early.
"I can't believe it. You, Lao Hu, were the most inconspicuous one in college, but now you're married, driving a Mercedes-Benz 600, and even own a house this big. How did you do it?"
Zhang Yang, his roommate in the lower bunk, asked him.
Hu Lin smiled and said, "It's definitely not intentional, it's just fate."
"Damn, your words about fate have made us all envious."
My buddy Zhang Yang in the lower bunk said:
"I found a girlfriend from the countryside, and her family asked for a 300,000 yuan dowry for a car. Damn it! I've only graduated a few years ago, and I can't even afford that without eating or drinking."
A friend next to him also said, "You're still lucky. The girl I dated in college ran off with someone else within three months of leaving school. If you say I treated her badly, I'll be struck by lightning. She just wanted to see that I couldn't afford a house in Beijing."
Hu Lin didn't know what to say, his situation was actually similar.
It was only after I found Chen Qi that everything changed.
It seems like all the hardships I suffered in the past were for today.
"Lao Hu, I heard that your wife's parents aren't rich, but her brother is."
"Well... her parents are both from the countryside, but her brother is quite capable."
"I'm so envious."
Zhang Yang didn't know what to say. He saw his upper bunkmate got married and drove a Mercedes Benz. His wife was a few years younger than him and was also very pretty.
Why doesn't he have the chance to have such a fate?
They were having a class reunion, and soon the school beauty from that year also showed up.
This is really a rare thing.
You have to know that Zhang Yang and the others really liked the school beauty Jiang Jia at first, but they just didn't dare to get in touch with her.
He is from Beijing and his family is very well-off.
How could they afford to just sit and watch this kind of woman?
Instinctively, I don’t dare to have more contact with it.
It seems that the campus beauty is still single after several years of graduation. Hu Lin himself was quite surprised that she came.
The two of them didn't have much friendship in college.
He just announced his marriage in the WeChat group, but more and more people showed up.
He didn't know when he became so popular.
"Is everyone here?"
Jiang Jiajiao greeted with a smile and brought a little gift with her when she came over.
Hu Lin continued politely.
The specific purpose of this campus beauty's visit is still unknown.
After a while, Chen Qi also came over.
She originally wanted to invite her brother, but her brother was not available.
Jiang Jia was a little disappointed, but didn't leave in a hurry.
Chen Qi invited them to have dinner at Fei Yang Yang, a restaurant nearby.
Hu Lin took his classmates with him. As the wedding date was approaching, not many relatives from his hometown came.
The main reason is that you have to go back to your hometown in the countryside to get it done during the Chinese New Year.
Only then will all his relatives come to participate.
October 18th.
The sun is shining, it's a good day to get married.
Chen Pingsheng, wearing a well-fitting Armani suit, packed his sister's luggage and personally escorted her to the wedding car.
No matter what, my younger sister will grow up and get married.
After all, he, as the elder brother, was very happy.
The wedding car was a red Rolls-Royce Phantom, a specially customized color.
There were countless top-of-the-line luxury cars following behind him. He had lost count of how many cars he had now.
Anyway, I thought it was pretty good so I bought it.
Those old brothers from that time, Chang Fu, Zhang Tao, and Gao Hu came together to see his sister off to get married.
In terms of the show, it was naturally quite a sensation.
There are four or five Rolls-Royce Phantoms, and none of them are rented.
The hotel where my younger sister got married was the five-star Karpinski Hotel, and the wedding scene was also a sea of flowers.
Chen Qi knew that all this money was spent by her brother, and his purpose was naturally to let her marry off in a grand manner.
No matter how much money is given as a gift during the entire wedding, the bride’s return gift is always a string of golden characters that read “Happiness and Marriage for a Hundred Years”.
If calculated based on the current gold price, this gold gift alone would be worth around 120,000.
Hu Lin's classmates were simply stunned.
Zhang Yang and Hu Lin had a good relationship, so he only gave a thousand yuan as a gift.
As a result, the return gifts for all the guests were words of happiness for all times carved entirely in gold.
Based on the current price of gold at 240 yuan per gram, this is at least one kilogram.
Still pure gold.
This shows the luxury of Hu Lin’s wife’s family.
I actually earned a year's income just by attending a wedding.
This is fucking shit. I’m afraid no one will believe it if I tell them.
And how many people came to the scene? At least five or six hundred!
The gold gift alone is worth 50 to 60 million.
The luxury of the rich once again breaks imagination.
I can only say that the relatives on the man’s side usually give between five hundred and two thousand yuan.
The girl’s relatives, whether they are Song Yanxi’s friends or the management of Shuiyunjian.
The minimum amount is 10,000.
At a wedding of this scale, one or two thousand yuan is actually not enough for you, let alone a few hundred yuan.
As for Chen Pingsheng’s friends, it was even more exaggerated.
Tong Zelan did not give any gift money, but gave a ten-pound golden monkey.
Chen Qi was born in 1992 and is a monkey.
Yang Mi gave 880,000 yuan, and Zhao Liying did the same.
The betrothal gifts from the bride's family will eventually fall on the young couple.
All I can say is that all of this is beyond the imagination of Zhang Yang and others.
Not to mention the dowry that her brother brought, as well as two storefronts in the capital.
Compared to this, the Mercedes-Benz S600 is not worth mentioning.
If you add the gift money from the woman, he will become a billionaire overnight.
Chen Pingsheng acted as the master of ceremonies and personally handed his younger sister to Hu Lin.
After the two said some wedding declarations, they began to exchange rings.
From this moment on, his younger sister had her own family.
Only after the wedding ceremony was over did Chen Pingsheng go with them to toast everywhere.
Big stars like Yang Mi, Zhao Liying, Bai Lu, Shi Shi, and Dilraba Dilmurat didn't come here just to give Hu Lin a face.
It was entirely because of him that I was able to take time out of my busy schedule to attend the wedding.
It would be rude of him not to toast personally.
"Chen Qi, Sister Mi wishes you a happy marriage."
Yang Mi stood up to toast, if it weren't for the wrong occasion.
Zhang Yang and his friends at the table at the back all wanted to come over and ask for an autograph.
At the very least, it would be nice to get in touch with some big stars.
"Yang Mi, don't just drink. Why don't you go on stage and sing a song?"
"Will you pay more?"
Yang Mi rolled her eyes at him, it was just a joke.
Chen Pingsheng's only sister is getting married, how could she ask for any stage fees?
Wouldn't that make you seem too stingy?
Yang Mi sings at a KTV standard, her singing level is not high but she is very popular.
Zhao Liying was similar. She was extremely popular this year and also went on stage to add to the fun.
"Who is Chen Qi's brother? He can get these big stars to perform on stage with just one sentence."
"Damn, this is too exaggerated. I have never attended such a luxurious wedding in my life."
"Who says it's not? Look, three of the four, eight, and five-flowers are here, and they're all performing on stage."
"No need to guess, her brother is the boss of Tengying Entertainment. It was valued at 12 billion yuan some time ago, and it was her brother who cashed out 3.6 billion yuan and prepared for an IPO."
Jiang Jia still knew something about the situation, otherwise she wouldn't have come to this reunion with old classmates.
"A billionaire?"
Zhang Yang sighed, "No wonder the wedding was so extravagant. Old Hu is marrying the sister of a billionaire. Tell me, this guy must have stepped on a lot of shit in his eight lifetimes to have met such a wealthy woman."
"I'm so envious. I heard that Lao Hu only met Chen Qi when he bumped into his car on the street."
"Is it really that good? I might as well try crashing into a Ferrari someday."
"Go ahead, as long as you're not afraid of losing all your underwear."
A woman with this kind of wealth would drive a car worth at least one or two million.
Anyone who tries to crash into a car like this will know the consequences. Anyway, Zhang Yang will not do such a stupid thing.
But he was still curious and asked, "Jiang Jia, you don't even know Hu Lin well, so why did you come to the wedding specially?"
"Of course I want to get to know her brother through Hu Lin's wife."
We are all adults, there is no need to hide some things.
Jiang Jia said openly, "Wasn't there a guy on a bicycle who went viral online a while ago? He turned a popular school girl into the founder of a listed company in less than a year. You should have heard about this, right?"
"Are you talking about Chu Qiuyan from Bobo Milk Tea?"
Zhang Yang said, "Of course I know this. I even searched online for a while, but I couldn't find anything."
"If someone doesn't want to show up online, how could they let you find out so easily?"
Jiang Jia's meaning was obvious. Everyone at the table looked at her in shock: "Are you saying that person is Chen Qi's biological brother?"
"That's right." Jiang Jia said, "Do you think he only has Tengying Entertainment? There are countless other industries in Beijing, and Bobo Milk Tea is just the most insignificant one among them."
"Some time ago, he spent 1.6 billion to buy a skyscraper in Shanghai. These two headquarters buildings alone add up to 2.6 billion in cash. Compared to those fictitious book assets, Chen Qi's brother is a true top tycoon."
“No wonder.”
Zhang Yang was stunned with shock, but the other students didn't know what was going on. It seemed like none of them could speak.
All were speechless.
After Hu Lin came over with his wife and toasted everyone, Chen Pingsheng also came out to toast everyone.
"I'm sorry, my relatives all came over from my hometown a few days ago, so I didn't have time to have a drink with everyone. I'll be drinking all day today. Thank you all for your support."
A few days ago, his younger sister called him several times, saying that Hu Lin’s college classmates had all come and wanted to meet him.
I just haven't had time.
"It's okay, it's okay."
It would be fine if I didn’t know his identity, but now everyone knows his identity.
How dare I invite people to drink so easily?
Jiang Jia stood up and introduced herself confidently, "Mr. Chen, I'm Jiang Jia. I'm currently co-founding an internet project specializing in selling used cars. This is my business card. If you have time, could you please let me introduce myself for two minutes?"
It's not too surprising.
Ever since he became rich, relatives would come to visit him first with some fruit to ask about his well-being, and then ask to borrow money.
Everyone, whether they knew him or not, wanted to establish a relationship with him.
There are even more bizarre ones, some of them directly hold up signs to ask for investment.
Zhang Yang and others felt that Jiang Jia had gone too far this time, but they didn't know that any Internet startup project would be in trouble if it couldn't find a big boss to support it.
That's all seeking death.
It is basically impossible to break out from the crowd of thousands of soldiers.
It would be completely different if there were a big boss supporting us.
Jiang Jia tried every possible way to see him, which was very thoughtful of her.
Chen Pingsheng took her business card, looked at it, and handed it to Zhao Yimin behind him.
"Guazi used car?"
Chen Pingsheng said, "That's a good name. I guess you're not the only one responsible for this project, right?"
Jiang Jia was delighted. "It's true that I wasn't the sole proprietor of this platform. I founded it with two of my senior colleagues. The domestic used car market has huge potential, but sales are not transparent. The concept of our platform is to enable everyone to buy a reliable and safe used car."
An Internet platform specializing in selling used cars.
There is definitely no problem with the project, and the direction is also good.
Chen Pingsheng’s first luxury car was a second-hand Panamera.
Now he has given it to his sister to open.
This is undoubtedly a promising Internet project.
However, whether they can succeed depends on the entrepreneurial team.
Chen Pingsheng asked her, "How much money do you want?"
"One hundred million."
Jiang Jia held up a finger and said, "We officially launched in September and have been short of money ever since. We want to use 25% of our shares to secure 100 million in development funds."
25% equals 100 million, so the valuation is 400 million.
Money is not a big problem. The problem is that he has always stayed away from Internet projects.
The main reason is that I'm not good at it.
Since you are not good at it, the best choice is undoubtedly to avoid it.
Just selling used cars?
He is very interested in this project.
The main reason is that he is more familiar with used cars than shared bicycles.
Chen Pingsheng said: "Today is my sister's wedding, let's not talk about this for now. If you have time, you can bring your team to the company to find me. I welcome your team to come."
Jiang Jia was delighted. "Thank you very much, Mr. Chen. I will drink three cups as punishment for the inconvenience I caused you today. I hope you can forgive me."
It is not easy for every entrepreneurial team.
Chen Pingsheng understood them very well. "It's okay. I also want to know how you move this used car business to the Internet."
The timing was not right, so Chen Pingsheng didn't talk to her much.
After Jiang Jia sat down, she realized that everyone's eyes on her had changed.
The former college goddess seemed to be out of reach only in front of them.
In front of a real boss, one would bend down 90 degrees and try every possible way to get close to and please him.
Is this something to be envied?
I can't envy it at all.
Who told them they don’t have the ability?
Jiang Jia didn't explain. An opportunity to connect with the real big boss appeared among his old classmates.
She felt that this was God's greatest gift to their project.
It is also a turning point.
