The Birth of Shanghai's First Conglomerate

January 21st marks the start of winter break.

Like Erpiya, Chen An'an happily took small steps to welcome her month-long holiday.

This is truly joyful.

Erpiya started letting loose again, throwing her schoolbag into an unseen corner and starting a butt dance as soon as she got home.

She even caught her father asking where they were going to go for the holiday.

Chen Pingsheng had already made arrangements. He was just waiting for his father, Chen Jianjun, to arrive before taking all the relatives of the Chen family to Hong Kong.

First, they would drift at sea for half a month before spending the Spring Festival in Hong Kong.

Erpiya was overjoyed.

She was so excited for the day she was finally going to sail the seas.

Her older sister, Chen An'an, shared the same thought, while Peng Ying and the others seemed quite calm.

The main problem is that I haven't had that experience, and I simply can't imagine that scene.

I waited all day.

Chen Jianjun took his bags and the village chief's records and went to Shanghai.

The eldest sister, Chen Yao, handed over her shop to someone else to manage, and the whole family prepared to go to Hong Kong.

My younger sister Chen Qi is the same way. There's always time to make money, but right now the most important thing is for the family to get together and have a good Spring Festival.

As for the other relatives, most of them have already arrived.

Chen Pingsheng's private plane could only carry 21 people; the rest had to go to Guangdong first, and then cross the sea from Guangdong to Hong Kong.

His Teng Ying was already like a giant ship, anchored in Hong Kong's largest port.

The annual parking fees are in the tens of millions.

If you add other maintenance, even if it's just parked here and not driven, it will still cost at least 40 to 50 million yuan per year.

The ship's service team is a single entity, consisting of the captain and first mate.

There were also twelve waitresses and chefs.

These people are all professionally trained, dedicated to providing the best service.

1 month 24 number.

Both Peng Yu, the younger cousin, and Peng Qing, the younger cousin, were shocked by what they saw.

Even Song Wu, the sister-in-law who always considered herself very knowledgeable, was stunned.

This is the epitome of luxury!
The Tengying was like a giant floating castle, gradually sailing from the port towards the middle of the sea.

It has five floors and includes all the entertainment facilities that ordinary people can imagine.

It also has a huge bar, concert hall, cinema, gym, beauty salon and everything else you could want.

There are also quite a few six-star ocean view suites, a total of twenty-one.

You can see the sea while you sleep, and as for the sea-view restaurants, that goes without saying.

Imagine eating seafood while watching baby sharks – how about that?

The only downside is that it's not summer now, so we can't go to the deck pool to sunbathe and experience the huge pool.

With such a novel experience, it's no wonder that Chen Pingsheng wanted to take his whole family on a spontaneous sea voyage.

That's incredibly extravagant!

Erpiya ran wildly on the boat, from bow to stern until she was exhausted.

"Dad, I want to do live streaming."

"Why are you doing a live stream? You really don't know the importance of keeping a low profile, do you?"

"I do not know!"

Er Yatou blinked her big eyes a few times, looking incredibly cute.

Chen Pingsheng didn't bother with her and just told her to find a spot to play and not to take pictures of other people.

My cousin Peng Qing enjoys watching her live streams and even wants to learn a thing or two from her.

So he voluntarily went to be her assistant.

Erpiya found a spot on the deck facing the sea, and the number of viewers in her live stream skyrocketed after she opened it.

It didn't take long for the number of people to exceed 10,000.

She doesn't show her face, and she certainly doesn't shamelessly call out to those so-called "big brothers" in the live stream.

No matter how many gifts you give her, Er Yatou won't care.

She just likes the feeling of being surrounded by people.

What's strange about the internet is that people love to tip those who don't lack money.

Seeking validation from those who are short of money.

Peng Qing was quite surprised to see that her live stream was filled with gifts even though she didn't perform any special talents.

Even though she was already dancing the duck dance after graduating from university, she still only had a handful of viewers (less than ten) on each of her live streams.

The only time she had twenty people, she excitedly showcased three different talents. Then she was all alone.

In Er Ya Tou's live stream, not only were gifts flooding the screen, but the comments below were all unanimously calling her "little princess."

"Little princess, where are you?"

"It looks like the ocean to me."

"Did the little princess go on a sea trip right after winter vacation started?"

"No wonder she's recognized as the richest little princess on the entire internet."

"Little princess, quickly show us some life at sea so we can broaden our horizons."

Whether Erpiya was tired from broadcasting or something else, she waved her hand and asked the chef to bring her a serving of top-grade French blue lobster.

Next, I'll take everyone to her luxurious seaside restaurant for a taste; there are quite a few people there.

My aunt, Song Wu, is having dinner with Yang Changwen and my maternal grandmother, Liu Fen.

Grandma Peng Ying also enjoyed this luxurious life at sea with Grandpa Chen Jianjun.

While enjoying the meal, she said to her grandfather, Chen Jianjun, "It would have been so much better if we had come here sooner."

How pleasant life must be in your later years! Wandering the ocean in the middle of the sea, sipping tea in a super villa.

This is the right way to spend one's later years; it's much more comfortable than living in the countryside.

There are chefs of all cuisines on board; just use your tablet to order what you want.

The waiters were very friendly and brought the dishes to their table.

There's no way around it. This job may not look great, but you have to understand that a world-class top-tier yacht like this will only go out to sea a maximum of ten times a year.

It only took less than two months in total; the remaining ten months were spent resting.

However, the salary is paid on a yearly basis.

The minimum is at least 300,000, and the highest, like a captain, is several million, which is commonplace.

With this kind of job nature, those so-called flight attendants can't compare at all.

Therefore, they will use the most meticulous and thoughtful service to tell everyone.

A true six-star waiter is worth the price.

Since Erpiya couldn't take pictures of people, she could only take pictures of the food on the boat.

A wide variety of seafood and desserts are available, all air-freighted.

When others see her, they will ask her, "Er Ya, do you want to eat something together?"

The little brat shook it like a rattle.

The people in her live stream were quite shocked by what she said.

"Is the little princess going on a boat trip?"

"What do you mean by taking a boat? This is probably her own home."

The second girl proudly wiggled her bottom and left.

The live stream room was silent; most of the people who regularly watch live streams are ordinary people.

Some of them have been working in factories, while others are college students who haven't graduated yet.

There are all kinds of people, but very few are truly wealthy enough to watch the live stream.

These people watch live streams simply to kill time; for them, time is often the least meaningful thing.

The significance of live streaming is that it allows us to see many things that are not visible in reality.

For example, in Erpiya's live stream, she realistically and clearly shows the ordinary daily life of a princess from a wealthy family.

She doesn't need any exaggerated words; everything around her is the most understated form of flaunting.

What might seem like flaunting wealth to outsiders is just everyday life to her.

For example, when Erpiya returned to her room and opened the watch cabinet, she found that she had all kinds of children's watches from various top brands at such a young age.

Prices range from one million to several million.

Luxury is never about flaunting wealth; it's all about who it's aimed at.

Erpiya's live streams often cause quite a stir, mainly because she lets most ordinary people see the real class gap.

I experienced the despairing gap between the rich and the poor.

In her live stream, you'll see nothing that's surprising, except for the worry about money.

To put it simply, some people are destined from the moment they are born to never have to worry about money.

They only need to fully experience the beauty of this world.

Peng Qing saw that she didn't do anything special, and there was no talent display at all, yet the number of viewers in the live stream was increasing.

We're both doing live streaming, it would be a lie to say I'm not envious.
