Chapter 757 Freshman Year
Chen Lu is finally a freshman. Although he is not studying the same major as Su Xiaoxi, it is good enough that they can be in the same university.
Su Xiaoxi didn't actually spend a penny of the 2 billion yuan. It was all spent by Chen Lu.
The beginning of the freshman year is so lively, with people coming and going, all of them are energetic young people.
There are also many small restaurants and shopping streets outside the university.
This place is the busiest when school starts.
Chen Pingsheng even pulled Song Yanxi aside and said, "Honey, what do you think about us opening a large bookstore here in the future?"
"It's not very good. Opening a bookstore doesn't make money, so what's the point of doing it?"
"You're still thinking about making money. Do you think our family doesn't have enough money?"
"That's not the case. I just like to make money."
"Okay, you're just obsessed with money. You think about making money all the time."
Song Yanxi didn't want to open a bookstore here, but Chen Pingsheng himself wanted to, since his son would be studying here for four years.
He opened a huge bookstore outside to kill some boring time.
There is no better arrangement than being able to accompany Chen Lu for another four years.
He acted immediately and called the group to arrange for someone to take charge of this matter. Storefronts outside universities are very expensive.
But that didn't matter to him.
The library must be large enough to meet the daily study needs of college students, and also a place to drink coffee and chat.
You can balance work and life.
In such a location, it is unrealistic to build a two-story super library of 500 to 600 square meters without spending tens of millions.
If you want to buy a storefront, the initial investment will need to be around 300 to 500 million.
It's just a small amount of money, no big deal. After the design here is completed, An An will probably come back from the sea.
He then prepared to be a leisurely bookstore owner for a few years.
As for his wife, she will probably be busy with the health industry for a few more years.
Song Yanxi is not only running direct-operated health stores now, but also developing high-end medical equipment for health.
In the past, such things were always in the hands of foreign countries, but now it is different. Domestic technology has developed very rapidly in recent years, in all aspects.
In the past, any high-end medical equipment had to be imported from overseas.
Now many of them have been fully domestically produced.
In the eight years since the real estate boom, the country has been transforming and upgrading its industries, and it is these high-end industries that have been upgraded.
Instead of just being a global OEM factory as before.
Once this sector grows, the profits will naturally be extremely high, and it may even form a monopoly effect to some extent.
It’s just like Apple back then, relying on selling Apple phones and Apple taxes.
With so many mobile phone manufacturers in the world, Apple alone takes away more than 90% of the profits of the entire global mobile phone industry.
This is a well-deserved miracle in any country, including in the history of business.
A single company has captured over 90% of the profits in the global industrial chain, something that few groups have been able to do so far.
The more technology develops, the stronger the monopoly effect will be.
Because the underlying patents and core technologies are all in the hands of one or two groups, they naturally have the highest voice in the entire industry.
The same is true for medical devices, including large health equipment.
Song Yanxi relies solely on this high-end equipment developed by her own group, which includes the tens of thousands of health and wellness centers under its umbrella.
It easily takes away nearly half of the profits of the entire domestic industry.
This is not an exaggeration, but real data. The high-end instruments developed by her company all rely on Tengfei AI, including the research institute of Tengfei Mobile.
Later, six independent R&D centers in the major health fields were established.
Once an advantage is accumulated, it is difficult to break.
After all, many people talk about how Nokia was defeated by Apple.
But you have to know that Nokia is still a world-class technology giant.
Samsung, which was once similar to it, still sits firmly at the top of the global mobile phone sales list.
Once the technology giants have established their early advantages, it will be difficult for them to fall in a short period of time as long as they do not make any major mistakes in their subsequent development.
Patented technology is its best moat and industry barrier.
This is the case with Samsung and Nokia, and it is also the same with Tengfei AI Group and Tengfei New Energy.
If a group like theirs were to attack a smaller field, it would be a disaster for the small industry.
Whenever a giant makes a move in a small industry, it basically becomes the industry's paraquat.
Even the country has to step in to control this area.
There is no other reason. The R&D expenses of hundreds of billions a year are not something that small companies can afford.
The giants have brands and traffic, and they can also open a separate policy for the corresponding policies.
This is simply incomparable to those small industry peers.
Chen Pingsheng is now at this age. If he doesn't find ways to find something to do for himself, he will inevitably become arrogant and think about seeking legal treatment.
Because money no longer has any appeal to him, no matter how the three children in the family spend it, with so many groups running at the same time.
Money is something that only gets more when you spend it.
Since he is no longer interested in money and does not play with women, power is the only thing that has the greatest appeal.
Unfortunately... In this part of China, businessmen are businessmen, no matter how rich they are, and they will not try to interfere in too many political affairs.
Those are all extremely dangerous signals.
If you are not careful one day, you will lose everything.
He absolutely cannot touch anything that is too dangerous. If his family wants to obtain this thing, it will take decades, pushing the younger generations of the Chen family forward step by step.
It would be nice to open a large bookstore outside the university town in the future, at least there will be a few good ones.
Firstly, it is to kill boring free time, and secondly, it is to make sure that Chen Lu and his classmates’ four-year college life does not go astray.
These two points were enough to keep him outside the university town for four years.
Chen Pingsheng just did what he wanted to do and soon went to An'an Group to handle official business.
Free up your time as soon as possible.
If he wanted to hold a meeting, the group would have endless meetings. Now that he doesn't want to hold a meeting, he naturally has to delegate all the power in his hands.
In fact, no matter whether it is the post-00s, post-05s, or post-10s.
In terms of logical thinking, they are not comparable to those people in the 1980s.
Most young people in the new era are very unconventional and have a lot of wild and imaginative ideas.
Using the experience of the older generation to manage them would only backfire.
Because for people in the 1980s, as long as they could make money, they would basically work hard without complaint.
There was a slight rebellion in the 1990s, but people in the 2000s were completely different.
The boss is always fired.
Being happy at work is more important than a high salary.
People born after 2005 no longer work overtime or listen to their boss talk about their dreams.
People born after 2010 have to work and live at the same time.
This is actually healthy social development and an improvement for the whole society.
Young people are constantly changing, and so is group management, both of which need to keep pace with the times.
