The Birth of Shanghai's First Conglomerate

Five-year-old Chen Lu stared longingly at his father.

I really hope his father can help his best friend, Su Xiaoxi.

Unfortunately, Chen Pingsheng would never be willing to spend tens of billions to support the Su family's real estate company just because of his sympathy and their friendship as children.

In his opinion, that was really too foolish.

Su Xiaoxi looked at him expectantly. If they couldn't borrow money, the Su family would go bankrupt, and she and her mother would be kicked out of that place.

Chen Lu was her best friend, and she used to fight for him all the time. If she were seventeen or eighteen, or even in her twenties, when Chen Lu was eligible to inherit the family fortune...

Perhaps he himself could use tens of billions to help Su Xiaoxi.

It's impossible now. Although Chen Lu is the only boy in the family, he is far from inheriting the family fortune.

Su Xiaoxi was destined to return home disappointed. When she got home, her mother had already been kicked out of the house by the nanny, and the Su family members had cursed her with particularly nasty words.

Su Xiaoxi's adorable big eyes were full of confusion as she wondered why she hadn't been able to borrow any money.

Is her mother about to be kicked out?

And what about herself? Will she be driven away too?

Su Xiaoxi's mother was also very beautiful. This time, after being kicked out, besides shedding some tears, the most important thing she said to Su Xiaoxi was: "Xiaoxi, you must remember that you can never trust men, especially the richer the man."

Looking at her daughter, Su's mother couldn't help but have a crazy idea.

The Su family is destined to fall, and even if it doesn't, its future won't be much better.

The real powerhouses that stand at the top in Shanghai and even across the country are not real estate developers like the Su family.

It was the Chen family.

Those were the wealthiest families; in outsiders' words, they were the most luxurious families in the world.

She received nothing from the Su family, and when she left, she didn't receive any property. She only took some of her dowry from her wedding and some luxury goods that these people had bought.

After Su's mother had that thought, she was unwilling to leave Shanghai.

No matter what, I can't take my daughter out of Shanghai.

She plans to spend ten or twenty years, or even a lifetime, to complete this plan.

Undoubtedly, she has placed all her hopes on her daughter, Su Xiaoxi.

She also wanted to prove to everyone that the Su family's decision to drive her away was absolutely the worst one.

After leaving the Su family's large villa, Su's mother pawned all her luxury goods, including her wedding dowry.

It still sold for over ten million, which seems like a lot, but in reality, it's not even enough to buy a 100-square-meter apartment in Shanghai.

Of course, she does own a house; after so many years of marriage, she still bought a house for her family here.

It was all to help her brother get married.

Now that she's moving in, she'll have to be extremely frugal for the next ten years.

All the money saved was used to raise Su Xiaoxi.

Let her learn piano, dance, and all sorts of arts and culture.

One must be proficient in all four arts: music, chess, calligraphy, and painting.

At the same time, we must make sure she attends the best school.

There's no need for elementary school, but for junior high and especially high school, I must attend the same school as someone with the surname Chen again.

Whenever Su's mother thought about this plan, she felt incredibly crazy, and she was willing to sacrifice everything for it.

……

Chen Lu used to be chubby and very cute.

After crying at home for a few days, he became taciturn because he found that he could no longer contact his best friend, Su Xiaoxi.

He was heartbroken and disappointed, and no amount of persuasion could console him.

In the end, no one tried to persuade him anymore; they just let him do as he pleased.

……

Chen An'an is about to start her first year of high school; before she knew it, she was already a fifteen-year-old girl.

She's almost over adolescence, and this summer she not only started an AR business, but also formed her own teenage band.

It was used to commemorate her junior high school years.

Although she was a little confused during her three years of junior high school, there was no doubt that this was adolescence, and also the most carefree time of her life.

When she gets to high school, she will study hard and strive tirelessly to inherit her family's business.

This teenage band consists of five members.

There are not only erhu players, but also guitarists, trumpeters, and drummers.

There is also the band's lead singer.

On July 21st, the Little Adolescents Band held a grand farewell ceremony for their adolescence at Jinshan Square.

Even Erpiya brought her entire large company to show their support.

Her sister had been preparing for this music event for a long time.

Not only that, but they also commissioned Tencent Entertainment's top musicians to write lyrics and compose music for them.

From the moment she proposed this plan in junior high school, her family mobilized countless resources for her.

On the day of the performance, the Teenage Band, making their debut, made quite a splash.

Numerous accounts across the internet broadcast the live stream across multiple platforms, and over ten thousand people attended offline.

This includes herself, as well as countless employees of the Tencent Group.

In addition, there were ordinary people from Jinshan who came to join in the fun.

After all, it's a free concert, but the various music facilities alone cost nearly 200 million.

Of the five people on stage, only lead singer Jiang Tang comes from an ordinary family, besides Chen An'an herself.

The other team members, who doesn't have a net worth of hundreds of millions?

Anyone who can play like this at their age is definitely not an ordinary person.

For them, the end of junior high school meant the end of puberty.

They all wanted to give themselves a special ceremony to mark the end of puberty.

This led to the spontaneous decision to organize this teenage confession concert.

Chen An'an also dressed herself up in a particularly flamboyant way, with many colorful ribbons tied to her head.

Shen Youwei and Zhao Yingying followed behind her, cheering her on.

They've watched Xiao An'an grow up day by day, and in the blink of an eye, she'll be going to high school soon.

Chen Pingsheng and Song Yanxi also came to the audience to cheer her on.

When the farewell concert for adolescence began, the sky was filled with colorful drone performances.

Judging from that setup, there must be at least tens of thousands of them.

They continuously depicted the little things that made them grow up, and through their actions, they told outsiders that this was a young lady's declaration of her youth.

A short while later, the countdown began.

Five…four…three…two…one.

Amidst dazzling lights, Chen An'an and her teammates made a splendid entrance onto the stage.

All the songs are original recordings.

The first song is called "We All Have to Learn to Grow Up Slowly".

We were all confused during our adolescence, and we also laughed and joked during our adolescence.

They also fought and misbehaved during their adolescence.

But without a doubt, they all grew up day by day during their adolescence.

Just like when we were young, whether we were born in the 80s or the 90s, who didn't have adolescence?
When the bugler blew the "da da da" sound, the whole place reached a frenzied climax.

Surprisingly, it actually sounds quite nice.

Meanwhile, online live streaming platforms, including Tencent Media and numerous popular internet celebrities, are also boosting her popularity in real time.

Especially during the intermission, they even invited the band Beyond to perform.

She dedicated a song, "Really Love You," to her parents, which sent the audience into a frenzy. Later, Chen An'an played the erhu solo and even performed a rap.

The number of people applauding her reached an unprecedented peak.

Later, the Zero Point Band performed "Believe in Yourself".

Countless times I was drenched in sweat, and my memories were filled with pain, all because I always believed that only through hard work could I achieve victory.

This was a pleasant surprise, because there was no publicity at the beginning, yet so many top-tier star bands came to perform.

With Tencent Entertainment's status in the entertainment industry, what kind of celebrity can't they invite?

Celebrities are just higher-paid workers, and they all have to give Chen Pingsheng face.

After the Zero Point Band finished their performance, Chen An'an and her teammates came out again for a lively singing and dancing session.

This completely stunned Erpiya, who had seen a lot of the world.

I'm still confused by my sister's lineup.

"You guys hurry up and think of something, I want to put on an elementary school graduation concert too."

She immediately instructed her superiors to come up with an idea for her.

For someone of her status, ideals aren't even ideals, let alone dreams.

Because no matter what you dream about at night, she can make it come true for you the next day.

Even if you invited half of the entertainment industry, it would be the same.

Chen An-an's teenage concert lasted from 7 p.m. to 10 p.m.

Numerous big-name celebrities attended the event, but of course, the most important people were the celebrities themselves.

To hold a music event with special significance for youth.

Live up to your youth and cherish every moment of your three years of junior high school.

By the time it ended, the internet was in an uproar.

Ordinary people pay tribute to their lost youth with beer, barbecue, and a bunch of friends chatting and laughing.

The rich spend their youth buying everything they want and traveling all over the world.

The passing of youth at Genting Highlands, a music festival that caused a sensation across the internet, performances and blessings from countless big-name stars, and a youth ceremony costing hundreds of millions of yuan.

All of this was just a special event they held to bid farewell to their youth.

By the end of the event, the venue was filled with dazzling fireworks and drone performances.

In her final moments, Chen An'an declared, "I am in charge of my youth."

Let's say goodbye to this grand musical event.

Undoubtedly, the entire internet is searching for who this little girl is.
Her identity has also been officially revealed online: the eldest daughter of the Tengying Group.

In the future, everyone will start as a billionaire.

If life is about being able to choose the direction of your efforts, I'm willing to start from the womb.

God, please let me be reborn into a good family!

This is the only way to get to Rome quickly and see how that young girl lives.

Then look at my own miserable life, endless overtime and constant arguments.

Not to mention the endless takeout orders.

Chen An'an gave herself a grand and regret-free farewell ceremony to her youth.

As for the others, they all left happily during the process.

It's such a shame you didn't attend such a big event.

On the way home, there was a row of luxury cars parked by the Chen family. Whether it was her grandfather or her maternal grandmother Liu Fen, they had all come to see her concert.

When they left, it was hard not to exaggerate the sheer number of cars they had.

What's gone is someone else's youth.

And they themselves, the next day, still have to rack their brains over mortgage payments and living expenses.

Erpiya left alone in her own extended version of the Royal One.

She will graduate from elementary school in another year, and then we will hold a bigger music event.

After returning home, Chen An'an happily asked her parents how her performance went.

“Very good, Mom thinks you performed exceptionally well.”

"What about Dad?"

"Dad thinks there's still room for improvement; he's a little worse than I was back then."

Song Yanxi rolled her eyes at him, "Nonsense, how could you have had the resources to hold a concert back then?"

"Hehe, that's true." Chen Pingsheng said with a smile, "My daughters are better off. They can organize such a big event even after graduating from junior high school. We didn't have that kind of opportunity before."

"Don't worry, Dad, I'll definitely work hard when I grow up."

"You don't need to work very hard, as long as you can protect the family business in the future."

Chen Pingsheng picked up a document in his hand and said formally:
"Little An'an, Dad will now formally inform you that you've grown up and it's time for you to take over the family responsibilities. Our family's Tengchao Commercial Management has 1200 billion in net commercial assets."

"The fixed annual rental income is between 35 billion and 4 billion. You will inherit all of this money. Remember, before you graduate from university, you can only use a small portion of it each year, which is about 500 million. The rest of the money will be deposited into your personal fund."

This means that Chen An'an is now spending her own money, and she has officially become the richest young woman in her age group.

He has a net worth of 1200 billion.

Before graduating from university, they will also receive a fixed accumulated rental fund of over 20 billion yuan.

Now, we can only spend 500 million yuan a year.

Chen Pingsheng started Tengchao Commercial Management a long time ago so that An'an could have a fixed and long-term stable income in the future.

I guarantee she can live a carefree life.

It's time to hand it over to her now. Although it's a little early, it won't hinder the normal operation of the household.

His wife's health business is thriving; the 20 billion investment in Singapore is already generating stable returns, and Tengde Times, which he wholly owns, is about to be officially listed with a valuation of 300 billion.

And the only thing affecting them is that their illness is about to pass.

Tengfei New Energy, which receives a fixed subsidy of 40 to 50 billion yuan for R&D every year, also needs to end its loss-making period and officially turn a profit soon.

Their family is already incredibly powerful; they don't need the rent from these hundreds of billions of assets to maintain the normal operation of their household.

Entrusting it to Big Baby now is both a responsibility and a trust.

Anyway, she can't sell them herself, and she can only receive 500 million in pocket money from them every year.

The rest she can only receive after she graduates from university.

It will not affect her future entrepreneurial plans at all.

As for Erpiya, Chen Pingsheng plans to buy Wanda Commercial Management for her.

Wanda Commercial Management failed to list twice, and it looks like the performance-based agreement is about to fail.

Old Wang has no choice but to sell, and there aren't many companies in China that can readily come up with 70 to 80 billion yuan in cash to acquire them.

He definitely counts as one of them.

Although Nvidia, which he has invested heavily in, is still declining, Chen Pingsheng still has great faith in it.

It makes no sense that someone who has mastered such powerful AI, including core chip technologies, would continue to decline in the future.

This doesn't make sense at all.

He's taken the gamble. Even if he loses, it's not a big deal. The key thing is that his new energy group has already turned a profit.

This means he will no longer face any financial risk.

Keep in mind that he doesn't have any bank loans; all he has are business assets.

Banks frequently come to him begging for loans of tens of billions of yuan, which is a completely different concept from the severe shortage of funds in the real estate industry.

Once Nvidia returns to a market capitalization of $800 billion, its cash reserves will reach $50 billion.

It has over 3500 billion RMB, and it has no debt whatsoever.

That's simply unimaginable.
