The Birth of Shanghai's First Conglomerate

At the end of March, torrential rain poured down.

The spring rain in Shanghai came suddenly and heavily, and the air was still filled with a faint mist of rain.

In the trainee camp, Jiang Peiyao once again watched the two girls leave together.

Despite its relatively mild competition format, it still reflects a modern company's strict elimination system for its contestants.

In each subsequent episode, two girls will be eliminated.

Fortunately, the two who were eliminated had anticipated this and made preparations in advance.

This departure wasn't about leaving Shanghai, but rather starting afresh at another company within the group, Xinteng Live.

Starting with an annual salary of several million, it also signifies their gains in this trainee competition.

"Peiyao, is the big boss still in Shanghai?" Shen Wanning asked her curiously.

"Yes, my brother-in-law has been here recently."

"Oh." Shen Wanning really wanted to meet the big boss, but she was too embarrassed to say it, mainly because she didn't have a reason.

Perhaps that's how it is.

She'll only have a chance to see the big boss again when the trainee competition is completely over.

A ding-dong sound rang out.

On Jiang Peiyao's WeChat, a chubby little girl's profile picture was flashing brightly.

Ever since Chen An'an secretly went to appear on stage with Jay Chou last time, her father hasn't taken her with him when he comes to Shanghai.

After sneaking over here with my stepmother, I immediately sent a message to Aunt Pei Yao.

Invite her to go shopping.

Shen Wanning also knew this little girl; she was the daughter of a wealthy boss, incredibly rich, and particularly fond of causing trouble.

The big boss doesn't really care about her.

"Aunt Pei Yao, I'm in Shanghai! Come out and have some fun!"

Jiang Peiyao asked her where she was, and Chen An'an sent her a location.

Jiang Peiyao drove over, and before leaving, she asked Shen Wanning if she wanted to come along. After thinking about it, she agreed.

Shanghai is known as a paradise for the rich. Only those with enough money in their bank accounts can call it a bustling metropolis, a place of extravagance and decadence.

Chen An'an is nine years old, but he still wears a pair of huge sunglasses.

She especially liked playing with Yang Xi, and even invited her over for two days during her vacation.

Thanks to her, Yang Xi got a job in the marketing department.

The two sat in a bustling cafe called Deer Antler on Nanjing Street, surrounded by people coming and going.

The waiters inside didn't even know that the group's young lady had arrived.

She seemed to be a heavy drinker, ordering one cup after another.

Chen An'an: "Big sister, your milk coffee is so delicious! Your boss must be a genius, and his daughter must be incredibly smart too, to be able to open such a great coffee shop, don't you think?"

Yang Xi felt a little awkward sitting opposite her.

Isn't Deer Antler Coffee yours?
If you talk about your dad like that, won't he really hit you?
The waiter didn't know her identity, but he felt that she could not only drink a lot, but also spoke inexplicably.

The boss is smart, so what does it have to do with his daughter?
The waitress was only in her early twenties and quite pretty.

"Little sister, our boss must be really amazing, and you're super cute too. This is our newly launched Coconut Latte."

"Great, great, super delicious."

Chen An'an patted her little belly. Being chubby or fat was not a problem for her.

When Jiang Peiyao arrived, she was still inhaling deeply.

"An'an, why don't you go to your dad's?"

"I was planning to go, but I only said a few extra words on the phone."

"My dad actually complained that I talk too much and that I'm annoying. He gave me a card and told me to go wherever I want. Am I annoying? Am I talk too much? Not at all."

Chen An'an certainly wouldn't think she talks too much; she would only think she's cute and adorable.

Jiang Peiyao feels that she is talking a lot now. Has she reached the age where she talks too much?
Chen An'an looked at the waitress curiously, "Big sister, do you think I talk too much?"

"No, little girl, you have a very interesting way of speaking."

"Is that so?"

The waitress looked at her sincerely, and Chen An'an laughed, "Big sister, I love hearing you speak the truth. Aunt Pei Yao, could you talk to the finance department and give this big sister a bonus of 50,000 yuan?"

After thinking for a moment, Chen An'an said again, "No, no, 50,000 is too little. It's not even enough to buy a small toilet. Let the finance department transfer 500,000 to this lady."

Forehead?
Jiang Peiyao froze, but she still quietly sent a message to her brother-in-law.

Chen Pingsheng told her to just do as Chen An'an said.

Today is her birthday, so let her do whatever she wants.

The waiter initially thought it was a joke, but less than an hour after they left, he received a message from the company's finance department.

I received a cash transfer of 500,000 yuan into my bank account, and when I looked at the sender, it turned out to be the group headquarters.
Unexpected events, pleasant surprises, you name it.

Chen An'an's favorite thing to do is create surprise events.

Jiang Peiyao's convertible Phantom can still easily seat four people.

In the Bund area of ​​Shanghai, seeing any luxury car is not too surprising.

Jiang Peiyao asked her, "An'an, where do you want to go?"

"Let's go buy some things first."

Chen An'an sipped her milk coffee, not having to think about anything.

Jiang Peiyao drove her to Global Harbor, with two other cars following behind at varying distances.

Others might not know, but Jiang Peiyao certainly did, as they were all part of Chen An'an's security affairs team.

Global Harbor is the iconic building in the PT area, a large shopping mall with a total area of ​​48 square meters.

It is a very famous five-star shopping center in Shanghai, which not only has a large number of international brands, but also many distinctive restaurants and cultural activities.

Chen An'an has been to Shanghai several times, but she has never been to such a super-large shopping mall.

The main problem is that her parents don't have time to take her shopping anymore.

Jiang Peiyao was free, so she called Peiyao "Auntie" as soon as she arrived.

In a shopping mall like this, even a seemingly insignificant little hairpin can cost several thousand dollars.

Chen An'an buys whatever she sees.

From Balenciaga shoes costing tens of thousands of dollars to Richard Mille shoes costing millions.

She bought it because she liked it.

Your birthday only comes once a year, so you can buy whatever you want.

"An'an, you should be more frugal. You bought so much and you won't be able to use it all. Your dad will scold you when we get back."

Jiang Peiyao reminded her of something.

"My dad would never say these things to me."

Chen An'an turned around and said, "I originally wanted my dad to come out and have fun with me for my birthday, but he was always busy."

“Your dad has a lot of things to do, otherwise he would definitely have brought you shopping.” “Mmm.” Chen An’an said, “My dad is getting busier and busier. I’m his super cute daughter, so I have to treat him well.”

“Auntie, please pack up this 1760 million watch for me. I want to buy it and give it to my dad so he can be happy.”

Chen An'an took a liking to a Patek Philippe with a super complicated timepiece, which could be identified as a men's watch.

If the waiter hadn't seen the pile of designer brands she was carrying, and the Richard Mille worth over two million yuan and the watch worth over ten million yuan that she was wearing at such a young age, she would never have dared to show them to a little girl.

Jiang Peiyao exclaimed "Ah!" and wondered if buying this would make her brother-in-law happy or get her a beating.

That's probably hard to say for sure.

The advantage of an unlimited card is that you can really swipe it as much as you want.

Chen An'an could easily siphon off at least ten or twenty million from it.

Her family owns many watches worth several million, but her mother often wears an Audemars Piguet Royal Oak worth over 20 million.

It's a sapphire crystal watch.

Chen An'an wasn't too sensitive to the price of over 17 million.

“An’an, if you keep scrolling like this, you’re really going to get a scolding when you get home.”

"This is nothing. My dad bought a superyacht himself, and it cost him 2.5 billion."

Chen An'an comforted Jiang Peiyao in return, "Aunt Peiyao, you have a misunderstanding about my dad's purchasing power. There are only two of us in my family. Besides buying diapers, would Xinyi spend any more money?"

“My dad works so hard to earn money. If I don’t spend a little more, what’s the point of him earning so much money? I’m doing this to make my dad proud and feel honored, you know?”

Jiang Peiyao doesn't know if her father will get arrogant.

But if you keep spamming like this, you're probably going to get a beating after your birthday.

However, Chen An'an has always had a lot of twisted logic since he was a child.

When Bai Xin was her tutor, she could rely on her reverse output to make you question your existence.

Now, naturally, they can't find any reason to refute it.

She wanted to buy it, but the salesperson didn't dare to sell it to her.

You let a young girl swipe her card for something worth over ten million, and then her parents come over and say they don't want it.

Can she afford this loss?

"Young lady, I can't use this card for you. You'll have to make a video call to your parents first so they can confirm!"

There are many children from wealthy families in Shanghai.

But I've never seen someone under ten years old using their parents' cards to casually spend tens of millions on things.

It can only be said that these children from super-rich families are completely beyond their comprehension.

Chen An'an thought to herself that it was troublesome, but she also knew that this was normal procedure.

She definitely couldn't call her father about something like this.

If you call your stepmother and say you want to buy a gift for your father, she'll definitely agree immediately.

Chen An'an chuckled, admiring her own clever little brain.

really.

When Song Yanxi heard that she was buying a gift for Chen Pingsheng, she told her to choose carefully.

A watch worth over ten million yuan was won by a little girl.

I spent over ten million, and the excitement only lasted for a fleeting moment.

And then no more.

He suddenly had a large bag in his hand.

For Chen An'an's birthday, Chen Pingsheng will definitely still host a banquet at home.

He bought groceries and cooked a big meal, then called his daughter, Dapiwa, at the appointed time to come home for dinner.

The days of spending money freely are always too short, and Chen An'an bought a whole bunch of random things.

It probably cost less than 40 million in total.

It's barely acceptable; blaming them is out of the question.

After her birthday, she only had 200,000 yuan in pocket money every month again.

The large apartment, bought last year for 1.2 million, has appreciated to around 1.6 million this year.

He has no idea when this myth of ever-growing housing prices will end.

This was Shen Wanning's first time visiting his large apartment, and all he could say was envy.

Such houses are so rare that even if an ordinary person works hard their whole life, they might never even have the chance to see one.

To view such a super mansion, you need to verify your assets to be at least ten million.

You need to have ten million in cash deposits before anyone will let you in to take a look.

Chen An'an threw a bunch of bags on the sofa in the living room.

She quickly picked out the Patek Philippe from the box with her chubby little hands and gave it to her dad, saying, "Dad, I chose this especially for you."

"Alright, just leave it there."

Chen Pingsheng said, "Your mother bought a whole bunch of watches, and now you're buying another one. These things don't appreciate in value much, is it really necessary to buy so many?"

There was no blame, just the calmest tone, as if recounting a trivial matter.

Jiang Peiyao found it unbelievable.

That's seventeen million! Is it really that insignificant?

"Dad, what things can appreciate in value? Tell me, and I'll buy more of them in the future."

"Do you have that much money?"

Chen Pingsheng patted her head and said, "Your mother spent 1.6 million to buy you a large flat in Victoria Harbour. When you grow up, that will be your own little home in Hong Kong."

"Thank you, Dad. I knew you guys were the best to me."

Chen An'an chuckled. At her age, Song Yanxi had already bought her houses all over the place.

When they turn eighteen, they'll probably have a home wherever they go.

"Alright, go wash your hands and eat. Your mom will be back soon."

Chen Pingsheng told them to sit down, saying that since they were all at his home, they didn't need to be so polite.

There's no need to care about his status as a big boss; it's unnecessary.

Song Yanxi earns a fixed income of around 200 million yuan every month solely from dividends from the various brands under her group.

It's the kind of money you can never spend.

She didn't know when housing prices would peak, which is why she bought a large apartment in Hong Kong for Chen An'an ahead of time.

It's a house that's over 300 square meters and has a view of Victoria Harbour.

That's already considered a top-tier luxury residence.

The only thing better than this is a hilltop villa.
