Chapter 1101: Chapter 890: Five Years Later
From 2025 to 2035, the aging population in the country can be said to be very serious.
Especially around 2035, the proportion of people aged sixty and above reached four hundred million.
What does this an?
One in three people is over sixty. Over the past decade, industries like nursing hos and big health have thrived, all thanks to the advent of an aging population.
The severe aging also places a huge burden on young people, with an average young couple having to face the problem of supporting both the old and the young just a few years into marriage.
Problems sedinted over ti have started to concentrate and explode in this era.
The most apparent among these is aging.
Peng Ying is already old, and her return to Wangcai Village is a hope to return to her roots, to be born in her hotown and die in her hotown, which is the best resting place for most elderly people.
Chen Pingsheng ca down from the island also to send her off on this last journey.
After she returned to her hotown, Peng Ying still needed a nanny to care for her; the hotown was the sa, but when she looked around, she saw no familiar faces or things.
The people of her era have all passed on, and her ti was near too; July 12, 2040, the weather was clear.
In this year, when Chen Pingsheng was fifty-seven, his mother Peng Ying never woke up after a nap at ho.
There were very few in the hotown who could still rember her, as most had left with the tis.
The problem of aging doesn’t require other solutions; ti itself can erase everything.
Another ten years, up until 2050, when those born from the population boom between 1950 and 1980 will have returned to dust.
By then, there will be a normal entry into a balanced age distribution.
And the rapidly developed industries of nursing hos and big health over the past twenty years will fade away with the tide of the tis.
Because of Peng Ying’s departure, the Chen Family gathered once again.
They all returned to their hotown, and after bidding goodbye to Peng Ying, Chen Pingsheng had nothing left but the journey howard in his life.
At this mont, he felt sowhat confused, unsure of where to go.
His elder sister Chen Yao was also getting old. Her two daughters were very accomplished, as for the younger sister Chen Qi, her son Hu Qilin was now married.
His partner was the sole daughter of a wealthy family, and the two lived decently.
The second generation in the family had their own lives, and the third generation were growing up healthy.
The days flowed slowly, ti flew, and five years passed in the blink of an eye.
In these five years, Chen Pingsheng again disappeared from the public eye, spending a year traveling around everywhere.
He worked as a teacher in the poorest mountain areas and was a tavern owner in remote towns.
He left footprints in many big cities.
After a year, he returned to Research Island and stayed there for four full years.
During this period, he never left the island, and the industries he supported underwent significant changes.
Especially in employnt choices for rural students, they could spend a year exploring and finding their favorite profession.
Then spend the next three years mastering it, with opportunities to return and repeat if needed.
Put simply, there were many more career choices, which greatly alleviated the issue of an oversupply of workforce in basic services.
Chen Pingsheng spent seven years accompanying Little Ji Ye’s growth and another seven years on the island pushing forward his late-life dreams.
In 2045, sixty-two-year-old Chen Pingsheng returned to Magic City with Little Ji Ye.
For the next ten years, he would live in Magic City with Little Ji Ye.
Though Research Island was a Genius Island, it was fine to stay there when young, but as they grew, they had to co down and see the world more.
Not only him, Chen Youcai, and Little Wuyou had the sa experience.
In these years, not only did he bid farewell to his mother but also to Chang Fu who passed away.
No amount of wealth could preserve a body wrecked by youthful excess.
Yang Qian no longer pinned her hopes on her only son Chang Dalin but focused all her energy on nurturing her three grandsons.
Her situation was also a helpless choice.
Many in their generation beca wealthy, but few in the second generation could truly support the family business.
Most led to rapid family decline because the second generation wanted to prove themselves.
Chen Pingsheng himself put all his efforts into maintaining the family’s stability for three generations.
Among their family, An’an was still the most successful.
The second daughter Chen Xinyi had two children, and Chen Youcai had another sister.
She remained as carefree as ever, managing capital that was among the top in the world.
As for Chen Lu, after leaving Dream Fund, he started his own investnt company.
He didn’t take a penny from ho, using the money he earned over the years, just over three hundred million.
Five years later, his three hundred million beca over two billion.
In terms of inheriting the family business, he was surely lacking.
But when it ca to squandering, he had no problems at all.
He beca a moderate-sized boss with a net worth of tens of billions by relying on himself.
He still had few other desires and just wanted to manage his small investnt company well.
He had no involvent in the family’s business.
However, over the past five years, he and Su Xiaoxi have beco more estranged, and their relationship has changed.
Even childhood sweethearts, once they enter marriage, especially one with complete financial freedom, are hard to avoid issues.
Perhaps their separation was but a matter of ti.
Chen Pingsheng advised a few tis, but it was useless; matters of the heart couldn’t be dictated by a father.
Chen Lu himself was content with modest wealth, able to live any life, while Su Xiaoxi was career-oriented, focused solely on making money.
They often argued due to differences in values and lifestyle beliefs.
This had not been an issue in the past, especially in recent years, it beca quite frequent.
In married life, the hardest hurdle is the seven-year itch and the ten-year mark.
If issues arise during this period, the family becos precarious.
Chen Lu was now in such a delicate state.
Unfortunately, even Chen Pingsheng couldn’t help, and after returning to Magic City with Little Ji Ye, he simply moved into a new neighborhood.
Very few in Magic City could still rember him.
After all, seven years ago, he briefly appeared only because of An’an’s speech, and after that, he vanished from sight.
Counting from his retirent, he had been away from Magic City for twenty years.
Twenty years, enough to change a lot, could make most people forget him.
Chen Pingsheng did not intend to return to Research Island; the next director would be chosen between Chu Qiuyan and Zhang Wanyi.
What Research Island managed was ten tis larger than what they had handled at Teng You dia or Dream Fund.
The director of Research Island was truly the pinnacle position of Tengying Group.
To reach this position, they both needed more ti.
There were eight deputy directors on the island, and the most likely next director would be among those two.
Once he let go of this position, Chen Pingsheng’s retirent would be truly complete.
The remaining years would be lived for himself.
