The Birth of Shanghai's First Conglomerate

"Ding! Congratulations, host! Your accumulated income has reached 16 billion. Would you like to activate random multiplication?"

"Turn on."

Chen Pingsheng, who had just run out of money due to investing in four super shopping malls, has suddenly started to make a fortune.

If he can get a number of three or higher, he will buy his own headquarters building in Hong Kong.

Establish global headquarters.

The golden die kept shaking, eventually getting stuck on the number four.

That's impressive.

The money for buying the apartment has come again.

One second, two seconds, five minutes passed.

The bank card received 64 billion yuan, plus the 16 billion yuan that his wife received, making it another 8 billion yuan.

It’s simply not too fun.

The CEO training program lasted only three days, during which he completed two large transactions, demonstrating that the program was not just about learning, but also a very important networking opportunity.

There are only two ways to own your own headquarters building in Hong Kong.

One option is to buy land and build it yourself, and the other is to purchase it from top-tier companies.

Chen Pingsheng still went to talk to Guo Ziyi, asking who among this CEO training class had the most influence in Hong Kong.

That must be him. Being one of the four major families in Hong Kong is no joke.

Guo Ziyi quickly found him a Grade A office building for sale.

It is located on Gloucester Road in Wan Chai.

The building has 28 floors, a land area of ​​2239 square meters, and a floor area of ​​3.23 square meters. It is close to Admiralty and Wan Chai MTR stations.

It is also adjacent to Victoria Harbour.

Not only is it close to work, but the location is also unbeatable.

The entire commercial building is being transferred for sale at a price of 108 billion.

Don't talk about price; this is the price a building in Hong Kong is worth.

Chen Pingsheng used 6.2 billion yuan in cash, plus six floors of the IFC office building, to acquire this property.

Thus, he also has his own global headquarters building in Hong Kong.

This is also his largest single commercial real estate investment to date.

This also signifies that Tencent Pictures Group is about to transfer a large number of important assets to Hong Kong.

The news caused Bobo Milk Tea's stock price to soar.

Bobo Milk Tea is also a Hong Kong-listed company. Now that Tencent is building its global headquarters in Hong Kong, Bobo Milk Tea will naturally have to move some of its facilities there as well.

Even after purchasing the headquarters building, it's not like you can move in immediately.

We also need to hire a top-notch feng shui master to conduct a feng shui survey and make adjustments.

It will also take some time.

Having reached this point, it's difficult to keep a low profile anymore.

After all, anyone who can afford to spend over 10 billion HKD to buy a building in Hong Kong must have some financial strength.

Actually, Chen Pingsheng doesn't need such a large building at all; he simply wants to transfer more of his assets to Hong Kong.

To be honest, all of this has quite a few benefits for his listed companies.

Chen Pingsheng stayed in Hong Kong for more than ten days, showing no hurry to go back.

The same goes for Chen An'an, the big-breasted kid.

This little guy almost caused a huge mess a few days ago.

Someone online captured and saved footage of her buying a superyacht on her own.

Then upload them separately.

As a result, it became incredibly popular.

Before he even knew it, Chang Fu called him and said that Chen An'an had become famous.

Was it something he deliberately arranged?

Upon seeing this, Chen Pingsheng immediately arranged for thousands of people to report the incident online simultaneously.

They completely banned her account with over 300 followers.

Playing around is one thing, but wanting to become an internet celebrity? No way.

The little guy was furious; things had just started to look up, and now he had to start all over again.

She has no idea that her father was behind all of this.

She's having a blast at sea right now.

A yacht worth over 200 million is already enormous, with a total length of over 60 meters.

It's over four meters tall.

At that moment, she stood on the bow deck, facing the waves, her arms wrapped around herself.

No one likes me when I wear sunglasses.

It's worth mentioning that there's also a fairly large swimming pool at the bow of the ship.

Zhao Yingying is lying inside now, and Chen An'an is also preparing to go in.

"An'an, the big boss has spent over 10 billion to buy a commercial building in Hong Kong."

"Really?" Chen An'an remained outwardly calm, but inwardly she was very happy; her father was truly capable.

They just spent over 200 million yuan on a yacht, and then turned around and spent over 10 billion yuan on a commercial building.

She doesn't really understand her family's financial situation.

Chen An'an took the tablet from Shen Youwei, opened it, and found it was full of news about her family buying a building in Hong Kong.

"My dad still has a little money, huh?"

"The big boss also spent 3.8 billion to buy four large storefronts in Hong Kong, preparing to open the Teng Hui Department Store Super Shopping Center."

Chen An'an continued scrolling down, and found that Teng Hui Department Store had successfully listed in Hong Kong a few days ago.

The stock price was 18 billion, but after the news came out, it rose to more than 20 billion.

Her family already has more than five listed companies.

There will definitely be more and more in the future.

If you add up the market capitalization of all these listed companies, it would be around 150 billion.

Chen An'an squinted, "Why is my dad spending so much money in Hong Kong?"

Shen Youwei and Zhao Yingying exchanged a glance. At their level, how could they possibly guess the big boss's business decisions?

However, judging from this, Tencent Pictures Group has indeed increased its investment in Hong Kong.

They managed to inject 15 billion in such a short time; that's something else.

Of course, the six-story IFC office building that was previously purchased for 3.5 billion yuan has also been resold.

Currently, the main asset that Tengying Group owns in Hong Kong is a super Grade A commercial office building worth tens of billions.

Four sets of golden gate facades worth 38 billion yuan.

The commercial assets we will soon own are four Teng Hui Department Store Global Shopping Centers.

They used to be treated like exiled to the frontier, staying in Hong Kong, but now the big boss has done this.

Xiangjiang has become the most important strategic location for the group.

Second only to Shanghai.

Chen An'an patted her little belly in an exaggerated gesture, "Sister Youwei, immediately take out my personal calculator and help me calculate how much of the family business I can inherit when I grow up?"

Shen Youwei quickly pulled out a special calculator belonging to a young lady, which could type four more zeros than the regular kind.

It's estimated to be in the trillions.

“Miss An’an, so far, the big boss has invested a total of 54 billion yuan in Tengchao Commercial Management. If we add the premium of commercial real estate in the past two years, it will be about 68 billion yuan. When you grow up, you will probably be able to inherit that much.”

"Sigh...that's the only bad thing about my dad."

Chen An'an stood up, put her hands behind her back, and said, "The so-called daughter should be successful. Does she still need to inherit the family property? If she is not successful, what is the point of having a lot of family property?"

"He doesn't even look at me, the eldest sister An'an, who can handle more than 60 billion yuan. He doesn't even consider the pressure I'll face when I grow up."

"I'll call my dad right away and tell him that if you don't work hard when you're young, you'll regret it when you're middle-aged. I'll make sure he keeps working at this pace for another 70 or 80 years so I can live a carefree life."

"Gagaga..." Chen An'an laughed like a pig.

He couldn't be more smug.

Shen Youwei let out an "Ah!" She was so honest.

After asking her a serious question and confirming that the young lady really meant it, he honestly sent her exact words to the big boss.

Chen An'an's phone rang, and she realized it was her father calling.

Her biological mother arrived and told her to return home immediately.

We were having so much fun at sea that we almost forgot which way was home. It's worth mentioning that there's also a private helipad on board.

Superyachts worth 200 million must have a helipad.

That is, it's for launching helicopters.

There will also be a small yacht on board, the kind that can be launched into the sea for drifting at any time.

When her biological mother arrived, Chen An'an didn't dare to delay.

They called out to the captain and told him to sail back.

She bought such a beautiful yacht; even her own mother doesn't know how to praise her.

The thought makes me happy; maybe I'll give her an unlimited card later.

You can buy anything you want from Hong Kong.

Then I would remind her not to spend money recklessly.

Gaa gaa gaa… Chen An is so happy that he doesn’t want to go back to Shu.

She's already been at sea for three days, sunbathing in the morning and having a seafood buffet at noon.

In the afternoon, I'll go fishing again and have some light drifting on the sea.

We watched the sunset over the sea in the evening.

Who in my family understands what life is like?

Shen Youwei, who comes from a rural area in Sichuan, had never experienced such luxury in her entire life.

Following the young lady has broadened my horizons.

The return journey took more than three hours. The superyacht entered the port with considerable presence.

A yacht like this would conservatively cost tens of millions of dollars a year to maintain.

Two Rolls-Royces that came specifically to pick her up were parked by the port.

The life of a young lady is so simple and unpretentious.

Song Yanxi seems to be hoping to open two Shuiyunjian flagship stores in Hong Kong this time.

She just received 1.6 billion, and with the proceeds from the cruise ship night, over 2 billion will be more than enough to open two super flagship stores. With such a huge investment, nobody knows when she'll break even.

She felt that investing money in commercial real estate was a worthwhile investment.

Only commercial real estate could accommodate such a large amount of capital from their family.

Her daughter spent over 200 million yuan to buy a yacht. She just took a look out of curiosity and thought it was indeed quite nice.

Then it was gone.

Once the money is spent, it's gone.

She receives a fixed monthly allowance of four to five hundred million from the group, which is nothing to her.

Chen An'an was just too wild; with her father away, she dared to sail her superyacht at sea for three days without returning.

Also no one.

"Mom, has Auntie's child been discharged from the hospital yet?"

"You still remember that you have a cousin?"

Song Yanxi pinched her ear, "Your mom doesn't come for three days, and you dare to stay at sea alone for days without coming home. Who taught you to play like this?"

"Mom, then you'll have to ask my dad. He said I talk too much nonsense. I'm just trying to put his mind at ease so he can focus on his work."

Song Yanxi snorted twice, "Your dad is so busy, and you can't even stop for a moment. School starts in half a month. You've been playing like crazy for two months. Let's see how your grades are going to turn out after school starts."

"Grades? Do I have any grades?"

Chen An'an was puzzled. She had absolutely no room for retreat. Since she couldn't retreat...

That's not just about progress.

Song Yanxi sighed and tidied her slightly messy hair. "Your sister is something else. She likes to play with chickens all day long. If you don't work hard, you'll only be able to go to Harvard University when you grow up."

"You have to figure it out yourself."

"No way, with my English grades, going to Harvard would be like listening to gibberish."

When Chen An'an heard that she would be going to Harvard when she grew up, she instantly lost her temper.

Why would a mediocre student like her go to such a prestigious university?

She offered to massage her mother's shoulders, saying, "Mom, you know, I've been in Hong Kong for so long and haven't spent a single penny. Don't you think I'm incredibly frugal?"

"You're still saving money?"

Song Yanxi didn't know how she had the nerve to say that. "All the food and drinks you've had on the yacht lately have been the freshest, top-quality ingredients flown in by helicopter. You even have a Michelin three-star chef. With so many people serving you, do you know how much that costs every day?"

Chen An'an smiled awkwardly. She had wanted to receive praise, but now she knew she was going to be severely criticized.

We can't continue on this topic.

She doesn't manage the household finances, so how would she know how much money was spent?

Just do whatever makes you happy.

As for those top-quality ingredients, they were indeed all air-freighted over.

The lives of the wealthy are beyond the comprehension of outsiders.

Shen Youwei and Zhao Yingying have truly witnessed this in the past few days.

It would be a lie to say I wasn't nervous about being so close to the mother of a wealthy family.

Song Yanxi is no ordinary person now. Not only does she manage the huge Shuiyunjian, but all the group's dividends also go into her hands.

They make hundreds of millions every month.

The watch on her wrist starts at five million, and you can never guess how much her seemingly simple outfit actually costs.

"Mom, let's not do the accounting. The thought of accounting makes my head spin."

Chen An'an used her old tricks again, trying to fool them first.

Her father is already at home, and Song Yanxi is planning to buy a bigger house in Hong Kong.

She moved to Barker Road; she's not used to living in a place that's less than 1,000 square meters anymore.

too small.

Once you have money, you can live in any size you want.

With housing prices seemingly endless, it's wise to invest more while you still have money.

But there's no rush. Let's get the Shuiyunjian Xiangjiang flagship store up and running first.

The people here all speak Cantonese; their Mandarin is very non-standard.

The beauticians here can only speak Cantonese. We need to recruit a group of local beauticians from Hong Kong and send them to the Shuiyunjian headquarters for six months of training first.

……

Chen Pingsheng sat in the front yard as always, gazing at Victoria Harbour and enjoying a view of half of Hong Kong.

"Dad, Mom just praised me the whole way here."

While Song Yanxi was swimming, Chen An'an ran over to her dad, eager for praise.

Chen Pingsheng asked her, "What did your mother praise you for?"

Chen An'an counted on her fingers and said, "She praised me for being obedient and sensible. I knew that Dad was too busy in Hong Kong, so I didn't bother you. I was adrift at sea for three days and two nights by myself. Mom said I was very sensible."

"Is that what you call being sensible?"

Chen Pingsheng looked at her suspiciously, "Would your mother really praise you like that?"

"of course."

Chen An'an said confidently, "Mom said that my second sister is obsessed with arguing with chickens all day long. I'm doing very well. Dad, you have such an adorable daughter like me. You should be grateful."

"Alright, alright, I can't argue with you. I'll ask your mom when she gets here."

Chen Pingsheng glared at her, "You never come here unless you have a reason, and now you're trying to flatter me? Tell me, what do you want now?"

"I'm only nine years old, what can I do? Mom, please give me an unlimited card, I want to go to Disneyland."

"Disney requires an unlimited pass; you can play as much as you want for ten or twenty thousand yuan, okay?"

Without hesitation, Chen Pingsheng kicked her fat chicken butt, and the big-breasted kid habitually swayed back and forth.

Sometimes I get beaten up.

Sometimes she can actually fool you.

Chen An'an was so wild that she couldn't stay at home at all. It was Chen Pingsheng who reminded her, "Your dad is going back to Shacheng in a couple of days. Do you want to come along?"

Why go back there?

Chen An'an asked him curiously, "There's nothing fun in Shacheng."

It's far inferior to Hong Kong.

It's not even as good as a super first-tier city like Shanghai.

"Let's go take a look at the agricultural projects."

Chen Pingsheng said, "If you want to go back by helicopter from Guangzhou, you should start preparing as soon as possible."

I took a helicopter back to my rural hometown.

That would allow for a super cool entrance.

Chen An'an was practically drooling; she absolutely had to go back.

She's never even ridden in her family's super helicopter.

I heard that her father bought it for 200 million yuan.

The wealthier her family was, the more carefree she became.

By the time Song Yanxi finished swimming and came out, Chen An'an had already disappeared from sight.

She probably called the driver to go shopping and have some fun again.

Song Yanxi dried her wet black hair, looked left and right but couldn't see her daughter, and asked in confusion, "Where's Chen An'an?"

"She just told me you praised her for being sensible, and now that she sees you coming out, how can she not run away as fast as she can?"

Chen Pingsheng closed the book on international finance in his hand; he couldn't understand a bunch of professional terms.

"Is your little sister's child alright?"

"Fair-skinned and chubby, it cries and fusses."

After Song Yanxi sat down, she said, "Hu Lin takes care of her at the postpartum care center every day. You were right. Chen Qi made the right choice in choosing Hu Lin. Now that the baby has been born, their family of three is complete. I just don't know if they will have more children in the future."

"Don't even mention them, my mom keeps nagging me every day that she wants to have a son."

Chen Pingsheng still had a headache when he thought about this. "The older generation thinks that if there are only two daughters in the family, they are afraid that they will not be able to hold onto the wealth. No matter what, they must give birth to a son."

Song Yanxi actually really wants to have a son.

Even if you get pregnant, it doesn't necessarily mean it will be a boy.

Chen Pingsheng still wanted to wait two years before considering it, until Chen Xinyi was four or five years old.

Xiao Er spends all his time playing with chickens; I wonder what kind of hobby that is.

Song Yanxi didn't dwell on the matter. Looking at the house, she suggested, "Should we buy a bigger house in Hong Kong? This one seems too small. It won't be enough for the whole family when we come over."

"A bigger one?"

Chen Pingsheng said doubtfully, "A mansion of 10,000 square feet, those would probably cost more than 1.5 billion. If you want to buy one, then go ahead and buy it. By the way, Guo Ziyi's wife is hosting a party at home today. There are many socialites from Hong Kong. You might as well go and attend. If you find a suitable house, just buy it directly. Our family probably doesn't need to consider the price when it comes to buying a house."

Song Yanxi nodded. This was also her second time in Hong Kong, and she didn't know anyone there yet.

That would definitely make everything inconvenient.

For example, these luxurious mansions with tens of thousands of square feet would never be listed for sale by a real estate agency; they would only circulate among these wealthy wives.

If she wants to open two flagship stores in Hong Kong, or if she wants to buy a house, she should first attend such gatherings to get to know some people.

She is now a wealthy wife, and her status is incomparable to that of Hong Kong actresses.

Chen Pingsheng had his reasons for sending her; when she returned, she said she had her eye on a large villa.

It was located on Baijia Road, and belonged to a prominent figure in the former British Hong Kong government.

Priced at HK$17 billion, with an area of ​​1,500 square meters and three floors.

It covers an area of ​​more than 2,000 square meters.

It boasts a huge, private garden and a luxurious indoor swimming pool.

The entire courtyard is lush with vegetation, filled with birdsong and fragrant flowers, and has a tranquil environment.

It's practically a natural oxygen bar, and it also comes with a large garden of over 300 square meters.

The garden has a large lawn and a small grove of trees.

If you zoom out a bit, you'll find that the house is surrounded by trees as far as the eye can see!
HK$1.7 billion, which is equivalent to RMB 1.58 billion.

Song Yanxi could have easily bought it, but she chose to go home and discuss it with Chen Pingsheng first.

Houses in Hong Kong no longer have shared areas.

By this calculation, it's not much smaller than their large villa in Shanghai.

Chen Pingsheng told her to buy whatever she wanted, as he was going back to his hometown in a couple of days to check on the progress of Tengnong Livestock Breeding Department this year.

To date, he has invested five or six hundred million yuan in this project.

It's time to take a look at its specific development. (End of Chapter)
