On the way back ho.
Chen Pingsheng was driving his newly bought black rcedes-Benz BOS, which had an exceptional view.
He felt like all the small cars in front were like tiny toy cars, as he sat high and could see far.
Chen An'an, sitting in the back, also enjoyed ample space, but she didn't feel much about it, as having more cars at ho ant just another big toy for her.
The only difference was the bigger space, which made it more convenient for her to ss around.
"Daddy, did I do a good deed today?"
"You call that doing a good deed?"
Chen An'an tilted her head and thought for a mont, "Isn't it?"
Chen Pingsheng looked at her seriously, "Do you know the difference between being kind and being foolish?"
"I don't know, duh,"
Chen An'an thought for a while but couldn't figure it out.
Chen Pingsheng simply explained, "Being kind is looking like , and being foolish is looking like you."
This little brat, finally doing sothing normal.
It's just that her brain might not be too bright, using tactics that could bankrupt her parents' wealth.
The newly bought Ferrari and Porsche were delivered back by the car center's people. He was smart enough to have bought plenty of parking spaces in the villa area near their ho in advance.
Parked in a row at the front door, he could drive whichever car he wanted.
The life of the wealthy is just so down-to-earth and simple.
Chen An'an huffed dissatisfied.
She didn't agree at all with what her father said, and, anyway, the teacher was going to ask about it tomorrow.
She would just show off in her class.
"Dad, the teacher said that little friends should do a good deed every day to grow up to be a good person."
"Do you know what the standard for a good person is?"
Chen An'an replied, "Not to step on ants on the side of the road, and to hand over two cents found on the street to the police uncle."
Chen Pingsheng: "..."
Full marks for comprehension.
How am I supposed to teach you?
A couple of sentences had silenced him.
Song Yanxi wanted to laugh but didn't feel it was appropriate, always finding her daughter's foolishness endearing.
When they got ho, Chen Pingsheng specifically parked his newly bought big black car in the most conspicuous spot in front of the house.
The Maybach S680 was parked beside it.
Wife's Bentley and Ferrari on one side, and the Porsche on the other.
The sight in the morning was very pleasing to the eye.
"Chen An'an, go wash your plate after dinner," he commanded.
"Why?"
"To be a good person."
Chen An'an pouted her chubby bottom, "Dad, I want to be a good person, not a fool."
The little brat knew it was his turn to do the dishes today; the big and the small took turns in their ho.
Wife was pregnant and could only rest. The little guy was not fooled at all.
Letting Chen Qi cook was best. By April, the temperature had completely risen, and every day was warm enough for light clothing.
Chen Pingsheng went upstairs to his second-floor computer room, prepared to watch a movie with his wife to pass the ti, when Chen An'an tugged at him to go downstairs to build a house for the ants.
With a big fuss, the little one grudgingly went down.
The Little Fart Kid indeed deserved a spanking. If not disciplined, soon there would be a rat's nest at ho.
Here he was, finally getting a day off, and he couldn't even watch a movie or catch up on a series with his wife in peace?
Chen An'an ran to find her aunt to complain.
Chen Qi didn't know how to comfort her, so she turned on the Teletubbies on TV and handed her a bag of chips.
And just like that, the whole world fell silent.
Everyone went about their business.
...
On the second floor.
Chen Pingsheng had specifically set up a computer room at ho, and even bought two especially comfortable chairs.
It was for lounging around when there was nothing better to do and maybe catching up on a series.
As for the hottest dostic drama of the year, it had to be Yang Mi's 'Ancient Sword Strange Tales.'
Popularity was bursting at the seams.
He personally disliked the performances of the 'fresh at' actors in it, their lack of acting skills made it uncomfortable to watch.
In contrast, Korean dramas were much more interesting.
'My Love from the Star' was particularly good, and both he and his wife were following it.
"Husband, why can't our country produce such good-looking romance dramas?"
Korean dramas were hot, staying popular from the early 2000s until now, rivaled only by Jin Yong's martial arts dramas.
Chen Pingsheng still rembered how they used to enjoy watching Korean and Jin Yong's dramas.
"You're asking , but I also don't know. Let's go do a prenatal checkup together this afternoon?"
His wife's belly was already quite large, and her figure was starting to fill out, which was normal during pregnancy.
To him, his wife looked beautiful no matter what.
Song Yanxi touched her large belly, "I don't even know whether it's going to be a boy or a girl!"
"Don't think about that, we'll love them either way."
Chen Pingsheng asked, "Once you've given birth, we should find a postnatal care center where you can recover for a month. Have you found a good place yet?"
"I looked at a few; none of them are cheap. The best ones cost over five hundred thousand for a month."
"Then let's book the best one. Aren't we earning money so that you and our daughter can have a safe and comfortable life?"
Chen Pingsheng made the decision himself, as the postnatal period was very important for won.
Postpartum care is necessary and brings long-term benefits to the body.
The money that should be spent cannot be skimped on.
Essentially, with over five hundred thousand spent, professional one-on-one care will be provided for his wife and child.
The baby is due in June, a ti of both anticipation and worry.
Childbirth still poses certain risks for won.
He needs to arrange everything in advance, fortunately, Song Yanxi has been in good spirits these days.
There have been continuous joys at ho, and her own health is excellent.
After lunch, Chen Pingsheng took Song Yanxi to the hospital for a checkup.
The results were good; everything was normal.
The due date is at the end of May or early June; by then, he will beco a father again.
Chen Pingsheng accompanied his wife to browse the baby store, although they still did not know the gender of the little one.
But stocking up on toys is never a mistake.
The couple's large black car turned heads wherever they drove.
It accelerated fiercely, surging forward swiftly with just a press of the pedal.
The power was impressive, and the driving experience was exceptional.
No wonder it was an eight-million off-roader.
By the ti they returned ho, it was already five o'clock in the evening.
The most important job for Chen Qi now was to take care of her sister-in-law.
This was far more important than her role as the front desk at the restaurant.
Chen An'an is essentially obedient, just always daydreaming about who knows what.
After watching the Teletubbies, she actually thought about attaching an antenna to her own head.
She then tangled her hair so badly it couldn't be untied.
What else is there to say? A big swaddle should make her cry for a long ti.
After crying it out, she'd probably never want to be an Antenna Person again.
Gao Hu ca over in the evening.
Besides the five already operational Fei Yangyang restaurants, five more have been invested in around the Second Ring.
Opening a restaurant isn't the issue, the key is keeping up with managent capabilities; otherwise, he could directly invest tens of millions, and dozens of branches could open up.
The more crucial point during the early stage is to straighten out each restaurant's operational standards and managent.
There are five restaurants currently open and another five undergoing renovation.
Gao Hu brought two pieces of news this ti, one about Chang Fu. After divorcing, Yang Qian went to Lijiang.
She opened a small bar there; it wasn't very busy, but the key point is that she likes Lijiang and wants to relax there.
Chang Fu followed her, and their current relationship is hard to describe; Yang Qian suffered a great loss in her marriage and couldn't imdiately accept Chang Fu.
For now, they are just maintaining a friendship.
The other news was about Fei Yangyang. Feiying Entertainnt also opened a similar hotpot restaurant in Capital City; it seems they want to follow the sa path as theirs.
Chen Pingsheng had known this early on; after all, Feiying's Wang Yanfeng is a real rich second generation, not short on money.
Primarily due to the soaring housing prices, these big real estate businesses are having good days.
After discovering there was a more profitable way to run an entertainnt company, Wang Yanfeng resolutely invested in it.
This might also have been his advisor's idea.
"It's normal for soone to imitate; what do you have to be afraid of?"
"It's not about being afraid," Chen Pingsheng said, "it's just annoying, especially since he's also in the entertainnt business."
"Entertainnt is just secondary and not the key to victory."
Chen Pingsheng replied, "Fei Yangyang wins on two key points, one is custor reputation, the other is employee satisfaction. Without these, even if you bring over all the celebrities in the entertainnt industry to endorse, if it's dood to fail, it will fail."
"I understand that," Gao Hu replied.
He then updated Chen Pingsheng about the situation in the stores, with Fei Yangyang's nu priced very low.
Under the current circumstances, the daily sales at a single store are around twenty thousand, with monthly sales exceeding six hundred thousand, the store would have a net profit margin of about 5%.
This ans, if they reach six hundred thousand a month, they could earn thirty thousand.
The breakeven point is four hundred and fifty thousand; below this figure, they would be operating at a loss.
The largest cost is a monthly rent of one hundred thousand.
In traditional business managent, finance is key – once finances are clear, you know where the problems are and what needs adjusting.
Gao Hu said, "The five stores we have now are doing very well, reaching daily sales of twenty thousand."
That ans there's profit to be made, adding up to about two hundred thousand a month.
To this number, Chen Pingsheng didn't feel much.
He pondered and then said, "It's good that there are profits. I think you can try enrolling in an executive managent course, the kind with long-term learning. Once Fei Yangyang grows larger, not continuing to learn won't do."
This was absolutely true; he himself was planning to learn.
All the major dostic tycoons frequently participate in such advanced courses.
Famous examples include the Yangtze River School of Business, founded by Li Ka-shing.
There's also a series of advanced executive classes tailored for business owners.
You don't need to attend daily, just a few days each month will suffice.
Such classes charge annually, with the lowest tuition starting at several hundred thousand.
There are also those in society dedicated to teaching success studies, which are quite popular.
It's quite amusing: a bunch who have never been business owners or achieved success are teaching others how to be successful.
Gao Hu seed to take his advice to heart, searching for various executive managent courses in Capital City the next day.
Many top universities offer such EMBA programs.
For example, the Tsinghua SEM EMBA Program is a professional degree education program offered by the Tsinghua University School of Economics and Managent for in-service senior managers.
Institutions like Qingbei offer such courses, and Chen Pingsheng was planning to enroll in one himself.
The specifics weren't decided yet, as he would wait until after his wife had the baby first.
