The Birth of Shanghai's First Conglomerate

Song Yanxi has gone home.

It's her daughter's birthday, so she'll definitely be going home to celebrate with her.

The house was still bustling with activity.

Chen Pingsheng asked Chen An'an where she wanted to go in the afternoon, and she said she wanted to go out to sea.

There's also a yacht worth nearly 50 million yuan parked at home in Shanghai, ready to be taken out at any time.

After the meal, Song Yanxi couldn't join them because of some things that happened at Shuiyunjian.

Only Chen Pingsheng could take her there.

Yachts typically cost tens of millions of dollars.

His ship isn't very big, and it can only operate in coastal areas, specifically the waters near Shanghai.

Only a superyacht with a 1 billion yuan deposit can travel around the world.

The family has regular crew members; they can just call them when they want to go to sea.

Chen Pingsheng, wearing large sunglasses, sat on the top deck enjoying a sunbath.

Life shouldn't be too comfortable.

As for Chen An'an, she bought herself a small fishing rod, but she definitely wouldn't dare to fish for a great white shark.

Fishing for small seafood would be nice too.

The sea is beautiful, with sparkling waves and an endless expanse of blue sea and sky.

It was the first time for both Jiang Peiyao and Shen Wanning to go out to sea, and what girl doesn't love the sea?

Seeing such an unbeatable sea view fills me with longing.

By the end of March, people were mostly wearing light jackets.

"Dad, do you think I'll be able to catch any fish?"

"Even your dad hasn't caught one, and you expect to catch one?"

Sea fishing is wonderful, but catching a fish is really not easy.

It's perfectly normal for the fish bell to not ring even once if you sit there for an hour or two.

To catch this kind of fish, it's best to hire a professional sea fishing expert to accompany you.

Chen An'an was just joining in the fun; once the excitement died down, she would go back to doing what she was doing.

The nine-year-old girl is always full of enthusiasm for everything she does. Once that enthusiasm wears off, she goes back to playing her favorite erhu.

Jiang Peiyao and Shen Wanning were her little audience.

Chen Pingsheng, bored, ate a large slice of watermelon one after another.

Chen An'an didn't want to go back that night; she wanted to spend the night at sea.

That doesn't matter; his little yacht still has two rooms.

You can see the ocean even while you're sleeping.

On the other side, Jiang Peiyao and Shen Wanning were chatting away.

It was clear that the sea trip was quite enjoyable. After returning to shore, Changfu lent the not-too-large yacht to film videos.

The current trend in short videos is all about exaggeration; those that focus on luxury and showing off are the best way to gain followers.

Chang Fu is basically just following the online trends.

Luxury cars, mansions, how can we forget superyachts?

Given the discerning eye of netizens these days, a yacht worth a few hundred million yuan would already be enough to amaze them for a long time.

After returning to the sea, Chen Pingsheng took Chen An'an to have an authentic Shanghai breakfast.

Then she took a plane back to Beijing, which gave her two days off.

How can I stay in Shanghai for too long?

Chen Xinyi, the little rascal in the family, is always covered in dirt and grime, either catching chicks or ducklings on the path.

I especially love playing with those small animals.

His family even bought her a small white teddy bear to amuse her.

"Daddy, sister."

In two months, the chubby little girl will be two years old. Chen Xinyi not only likes to play with small animals.

They also like to follow legs.

Every morning when her mother goes out, she watches from the doorway for a long time.

Until Song Yanxi's car disappeared.

Chen An'an brought her some small gifts, all colorful little things.

The chubby little girl was very happy and chased after her dad for a hug.

Chen Pingsheng picked her up. At home, Peng Ying and Liu Fen spent their days either researching stocks or growing vegetables and flowers—a perfect lifestyle for the elderly.

As for her sister-in-law Song Wu, Song Yanxi introduced her to several blind dates, but none of them were suitable.

She went back to acting to earn money.

Chen Pingsheng is not going anywhere today; he'll stay home and take care of the child.

……

Time flies, and April is here in the blink of an eye.

Everything was fine at home, and Chen Pingsheng returned to his daily busy routine.

The stock price of Tengying Group remains sluggish, forcing him to postpone his original plan to cash out some of his Bobo Milk Tea shares this month.

In addition, Teng Hui Department Store's listing application also encountered obstacles, so Chen Pingsheng had no choice but to let Teng Hui Department Store apply for a Hong Kong stock listing.

Unlike Teng Hui Department Store's difficult path to listing, Deer Antler Coffee's application for Nasdaq went surprisingly smoothly.

The main reason is that coffee originated overseas, and the foreign capital market is well aware of this.

In China, only Starbucks is far ahead, having monopolized the coffee industry for many years.

The newly emerging Deer Antler Coffee will undoubtedly become its biggest competitor in Central China.

With a market of 1.3 billion people, it's impossible for two coffee giants to coexist.

There's no reason why Starbucks can stay ahead forever.

After Tong Zhelan led her negotiation team abroad for more than a week, she brought back an investigation team, mainly to investigate the domestic market for Deer Antler Coffee and find out how it was doing.
It's very difficult to cheat when you want to list overseas.

You need to have a very solid foundation before people will give you the opportunity to go public.

This is completely different from the domestic securities market. In China, you can say that you only need to find a way to get a few key people on your side.

Get them to produce some guarantees and permits, and then find some top accounting firms to make your financial statements look better.

The listing was then completed.

As for the tens of thousands of investors who were scammed later on.

Investing in stocks involves risks; please invest cautiously.

One sentence completely covered up the whole mess.

If you want to do that on Nasdaq, let's not even talk about whether others will give you the opportunity.

Even if you get involved, the safest course of action for you when investors realize they've been scammed is to call the police.

When a large group of people who have been scammed drive up to your house armed with AK47s.

Don't be too surprised.

Therefore, Nasdaq is a very rare place for shell companies that get listed by drinking and networking.

When Deer Antler Coffee applied for a Nasdaq listing, the investigation team sent from there consisted of seven or eight people.

First, check your company's finances, then check the operating status of your offline stores.

In addition, several analysts will prepare a report on your business prospects for the next few years, based on your domestic business situation.

If they believe that your future prospects are very poor, then your path to going public is basically over.

People from abroad come here simply to do business.

There is absolutely no possibility of bribery, which would be a serious crime in other countries.

Commercial bribery is defined as a value exceeding $250.

Federal law stipulates that the punishment for bribery is the same for both giving and receiving bribes, and both may result in imprisonment.

Misdemeanors can carry a maximum sentence of two years in prison, while felonies can carry a maximum sentence of 15 years in prison.

Even if you dare to give it, no one will dare to accept your money.

This is not an exaggeration. If investigators like them were to falsify information during their investigations, hundreds of thousands of stock market investors could suffer as a result.

The civilians over there are not ordinary people; they are people who can carry guns.

If it's discovered, going to jail is definitely the best outcome.

No one can guarantee that among these hundreds of thousands of stock investors, there won't be one or two impulsive ones.

If you cheat them, they'll dare to take a gun and mow down your house.

If you covet the money in their pockets, they can covet the lives of your entire family.

That's just how irritable I am.

The investigation has just begun and will take at least another month.

Only after the investigation is completed can the IPO listing and financing process officially begin.

Everything is progressing smoothly.
