Reaching the age of thirty, my income randomly doubled

Jiang Jia was unbelievably shocked.

She never imagined that Chen Pingsheng would start off by offering two billion.

It seemed as if, in his eyes, two billion was just a number.

And if they really had two billion,

their project would immediately leap to a front-running position among the numerous second-hand car platforms.

With internet projects, even the best ideas can be easily imitated.

And to truly break through, you need money, more money, it's all about the money.

Without a doubt, Chen Pingsheng had given them this opportunity.

To him, two billion was nothing; he had twenty-one more little targets he was holding on to.

Spending two billion to buy an entry ticket into the used car market was considered a good deal.

If it turned out to be a success, the profits would be exceptionally high.

Jiang Jia's senior pulled her aside, signaling for her to quickly accept the offer.

If the big-shot investor changed his mind, whether they could survive this month would be a huge question mark.

Jiang Jia immediately nodded, and everyone began signing the contract.

Chen Pingsheng only invested and did not interfere in their operational decisions.

He himself was busy with Antler Coffee.

He didn't have the time to manage anything else.

The moment the contract was signed between the two parties, Chen Pingsheng arranged for the finance department to transfer the funds.

It was not a one-time transfer but in three installments.

Fifty million at first, followed by two payments of seventy-five million each.

The reason for paying off within three months,

was to prevent mismanagement and misuse of the funds due to having too much money at once.

Signing the contract was incredibly good news for Jiang Jia and her team.

Of course, they had to arrange for a group photo—it was also meant to demonstrate to the capital market that their project was officially on the table.

They would be directly entering the competitive second-hand car market.

Chen Pingsheng signed the contract with Jiang Jia on behalf of Tenghui Capital.

All his personal investments were made through there.

After the photos were taken, someone from Tengying Entertainment would arrange online promotions for them.

In addition, Tengying Entertainment would also provide them with a celebrity endorsement.

Considering most customers of used cars are male,

Chen Pingsheng thought it over and chose Shen Teng, who had just become hugely popular by starring in a film, to endorse Melon Seed Used Cars.

He had all kinds of celebrity resources at his disposal.

Since he had invested two billion, it was natural to provide the necessary support.

Online marketing, for example, was Tengying Entertainment's forte.

Jiang Jia was likewise overjoyed. This was the advantage of having a big-shot investor—access to a series of resources they had only dreamed of but couldn't reach before.

After they left,

Chen Pingsheng had to get busy with his own matters again.

Charlotte had been out for over twenty days, raking in nearly two billion at the box office.

With strong marketing from Antler Coffee, it became the winner of the National Day holiday box office and one of the top three box-office earners of 2015.

Tengying Entertainment itself was exploding in popularity. Of course, it was already going through the listing process.

All sorts of auditing work was being taken care of by countless people.

The higher his income, the higher the future market value of Tengying Entertainment would be.

Suddenly, Shen Teng was the male lead in a film with over two billion at the box office. It would be impossible for him not to get a little carried away.

Still, he was particularly well-behaved in front of Chen Pingsheng. If that had been Yang Mi,

he probably would've expected Chen Pingsheng to personally serve him tea in his office.

Shen Teng came over because he had taken an interest in another film screenplay, in which he was invited to play the male lead.

The script was quite humorous and interesting.

It told the story of an ordinary man from the football world who suddenly inherits a billion and has to spend it all within a month,

leading to a series of absurdly comical events.

The protagonist, Wang Duoyu, makes a declaration.

"I am a billionaire."

Chen Pingsheng used his Golden Finger to check it out.

"Film title: Tomato Tycoon."

"Analyzing the film..."

One second passed, then two, then three.

"Total investment: Ninety million."

"Shooting period: Three months."

"Break-even period: One year."

"Investment return rate: 700%."

What a blessing.

Chen Pingsheng sighed. Spending eighty million to sign this rising star of comedy was definitely a very correct decision.

"How about it, boss? The script's pretty good, right?"

"It's very good," Chen Pingsheng replied, putting down the script. Then he said, "Tengying Entertainment will finance it all, and your personal fee will increase to thirty million."

Thirty million already?

Teng was quite surprised; the good news seemed to have come unexpectedly.

A movie fee of thirty million meant that he was now among the leading stars.

Only those of the leading tier could command such a movie fee.

Superstars were a different story; there were just a few in China who could get that.

Like Brother Long, The Kung Fu Emperor, and the God of Gamblers.

Those were the ones, possessing high individual box office appeal.

The God of Gamblers wasn't doing as well these years, but given his big name, he refused to lower his fee.

The Kung Fu Emperor was a childhood idol of Chen Pingsheng, having watched his movie "The South Sea Bodyguard" countless times.

Now he hardly did movies anymore.

As for Brother Long, given his age, how many more years could he continue fighting?

Currently, no one in China seemed capable of taking over their mantle.

Now that Tengying Entertainment wasn't just his, all of Tengying Investment had to be executed through the company's account.

It couldn't be as casual as before.

A ninety-million investment was nothing, easy to account for.

After Charlotte's release, Tengying gained some renown in the film industry, and there had been countless more film projects seeking investment from him than before.

Bai Xin received seven or eight inquiries a day; they couldn't even be reviewed in time.

They would have to queue up until next year, at the earliest.

Chen Pingsheng also figured out a little trick—Golden Finger Grandpa should not be used carelessly.

The projects he looked at had to be at least somewhat credible.

```

What does reliable mean?

It means that the actors inside, or the director, have made profitable movies before.

He realized that those who can make money often do make money.

As for those who can't, even if you give them ten chances, they still flop.

Chen Sicheng has also returned.

The missing one has been shot for nearly half a year.

It's already in post-production, and he is here for investment once again.

He wrote a Chinatown script by himself, a detective theme.

Pingsheng told him to wait for a day. Today's Golden Finger Grandpa has been used up, so he must wait until tomorrow.

Chen Sicheng thought his project wasn't favored, and oh, how agitated he was.

Domestically, there isn't a detective theme script that has taken off yet.

Rare theme.

If someone can make this project well, it wouldn't be surprising to shoot a series of films.

This theme is also quite niche. The next day, Pingsheng checked it with Golden Finger Grandpa.

Invest eighty million.

Return on investment 500%.

Undoubtedly a very successful movie project.

This Comrade Little Chen is also talented.

Three years have passed, and his Tengying Entertainment seems to have suddenly become full of talent.

He's quite comforted.

Pingsheng directly allocated eighty million and also raised his director's fee to thirty million, formally ranking him among top domestic directors.

And the kind with a good box office pull.

When it comes to making money, he's never stingy.

Comrade Little Chen was overjoyed, don't be too happy.

The guy also likes to play in private, which is quite normal.

In the entertainment industry, men with a bit of status have seen countless beauties.

Put those delicate beauties in front of them, and few can resist the temptation.

Pingsheng won't care about these things.

Tengying Entertainment, which hadn't invested in a while, suddenly invested in two movies.

This has also got the employees excited.

All of these aren't a big deal, the key point is that Charlotte made a lot of money.

As per the boss's habit, he will always reward with some amount of money.

And indeed, it turned out to be true.

Pingsheng asked the finance department to take out thirty million in cash and placed it in the first floor reception hall.

Lining up over a dozen security guards to watch over it.

When it was about time to get off work, everyone went over there to queue up for money.

Not only the employees of Tengying Entertainment had money to claim, but those from other companies did as well.

The eighteen-story headquarters building currently has about three thousand company employees.

Qin Xue and Xiao Ya left work on time, then they saw this shocking scene.

"Auntie, what's going on?"

"I don't know, I heard it's to line up for money?"

"What money? I didn't hear anything about it."

"Why would the boss let you know in advance when he's giving out money?"

A receptionist in front of them said, "I heard Charlotte made a big profit, so the boss directly had finance bring over thirty million in cash, ten thousand per person, isn't it surprising?"

Xiao Ya was dumbfounded, there's such an operation? Charlotte has nothing to do with them.

At best, they contributed one movie ticket.

And they can get ten thousand just like that?

Is ten thousand simply some Chinese cabbage that you can grab and bring home at will?

The most eager to line up for money, by the time it was Qin Xue and Xiao Ya's turn, both received a message on their phones at the same time.

All of Antler Coffee must stay, go to the eighteenth floor for a meeting.

The headquarters of Antler Coffee is officially moving to Magic City.

All the employees will also be transferring there.

Qin Xue was a little reluctant, but Xiao Ya didn't care.

Isn't it life wherever you are?

Plus, the boss bought such a huge building in Magic City, with Antler Coffee as the core strength.

How could they not move there, it's just a matter of time.

Because Pingsheng has to consider not just a comfortable office headquarters.

There also has to be enough large employee dormitories.

With so many people suddenly being moved there, if it's not arranged in advance, they'll have to rent homes, causing a flurry.

He's already rented six apartment buildings there in advance, so the staff who have just moved can enjoy half a year's rent-free period.

This is what he, as a boss, offers to employees who travel thousands of miles to work at the new headquarters in Magic City.

A small gift.

In a place like Magic City, if he didn't rent the houses in advance and they have to rent after moving, those with savings will be alright. But those without savings will directly be impoverished for a month or two.

Antler Coffee was the first to move there.

Addition

Tengying Entertainment will also arrange for some people to go.

So will the other companies.

The CEO's office issued a notice, and the number of people who need to move is as high as a thousand.

After they get there, they will continue to hire more.

The only consolation is that the boss has rented all the houses over there.

They'll have a place to live as soon as they arrive.

Bai Xin will be running back and forth thereafter.

Jiang Yilei applied for a transfer to Magic City.

She's originally from there, so now that she has a chance to transfer, she naturally applied right away.

Pingsheng spent twenty million renting a thousand studio apartments there in advance, with a monthly rent of around five thousand each.

One month deposit, pay for three months, another fifteen million will be paid later. Experience more tales on empire

The houses aren't too big, all around thirty square meters.

The advantage is that staff moving there will all have a warm and comfortable place to call home.

With such a big move on his part, it naturally attracted countless attentions.

Especially for people like classmate Hu Lin.

They can't book the people he just moved thousands of people from Capital City to the Magic City headquarters with a wave of his hand.

The journey is far. Pingsheng bought high-speed train tickets for all of them.

After arriving, someone will naturally arrange for food and accommodation.

This major relocation from Capital City also means he's planning to fully invade the Magic City market next year.
