Chapter 1005: Chapter 753: An’an Is Here

Chen Pingsheng wasn’t exactly disappointed with his son.

Chen Lu showed signs of having a laid-back attitude from a young age. Coming from a wealthy family, this personality wasn’t necessarily bad.

After all, isn’t there a saying popular among the rich second generation?

As long as you don’t start a business, your father’s assets will last eight generations; once you try to start a business, your descendants will return to pre-liberation times.

Chen Lu always possessed a conservative nature. He might not be able to conquer new territories, but he had no issue maintaining what he had.

As for his proposal, as his father, I could only agree.

Mid-October.

A grand and luxurious bookstore opened outside the university, elegant and quiet inside.

Not only does it provide students with the best environment to read, but every resting table has a top-tier Tengfei AI computer set up.

In addition, there is Antler Coffee, Bobo Milk Tea, and a three-level self-service style restaurant.

The Wuyou Bookstore, which received investments of over six hundred million, owned all three floors’ premises was officially opened on October 15th.

This bookstore surely wasn’t opened for profit; it was just a father’s way of companionship, a wish for his son to become successful.

Essentially, it’s to accompany his son through his four years of university.

Su Xiaoxi used to work part-time at a real estate agency. Although she had excellent academic grades, she lacked any entrepreneurial experience over the years.

She hardly had any business experience. Mrs. Su had actually left her ten million as pocket money, but she didn’t dare to spend it freely.

As the saying goes, if you don’t start a business, for ordinary people, this sum is enough to last a lifetime.

Including buying a property in top-tier cities.

If she were to venture into business, the house and car might disappear, and this money would only last one or two years.

It might lead to high debts owing.

Su Xiaoxi dares not start a business, nor does she have any startup capital.

The Wuyou Bookstore has thirty-six female employees; she’s merely the most conspicuous one among them.

The employees here receive great salaries, starting with a minimum of twelve thousand a month.

They work five days a week with two days off, and their daily work time is eight hours.

They can rest for two hours at noon.

Su Xiaoxi can only utilize her spare time as best as possible, or during her breaks, to work here part-time.

Chen Pingsheng’s office is located on the second floor, a large independent office equipped not just with a treadmill but also various fitness equipment.

When he’s there, he’s either analyzing computer data, exercising, or entertaining old friends from the industry.

Not until late October, when An’an visited him post-pregnancy, did his routine change somewhat.

“Dad, why do I still see Su Xiaoxi doing the most basic cleaning and organizing work outside?”

“Your brother asked to bring her in, but I didn’t promise her a good position.”

“Dad… Don’t be at odds with Chen Lu. I find Su Xiaoxi quite capable; she just never had good parental guidance.”

An’an remains kind, and Chen Pingsheng tends to listen to her.

“I heard from Mom about my brother’s situation. He is stubborn about his beliefs. Since he introduced Su Xiaoxi to work for you, surely he hopes you can help her out more.”

Chen Lu’s intentions weren’t lost on Chen Pingsheng; he simply chose not to have Su Xiaoxi by his side immediately.

“Why would you think of speaking for him?”

“I don’t want to see Dad worrying over Chen Lu’s matters anymore. If he were younger, I’d surely have disciplined him; now that he’s grown, that’s not an option.”

Alright then… Chen Pingsheng asked An’an about the children. Sun Sile was sent to be raised by Old Sun’s family.

Sun’s family’s fourth-generation eldest grandson, not just any ordinary family member.

As for the second child, Chen Jiye, just one month old, he is being cared for by a nanny at home.

He doesn’t have extended wakeful periods yet, so the nanny’s care is essential.

When he turns one or two, his grandfather will take over the care.

“An’an, you didn’t just come to discuss your brother’s issues, did you?”

“Of course, not only his matters. I plan to delegate some of my businesses to dedicated managers or have you oversee them for me, Dad. I want to free up my time to take a position at Tengfei AI Phone.”

“I see!”

An’an’s idea is good. After all, the combined value of her various businesses is less than half that of Tengfei AI Phone.

And she hasn’t truly been able to take charge of this tech giant until now.

Because of the high technical barriers, outsiders are easily kept out.

The current tech world is no longer one where outsiders manage insiders.

Whenever a marketing-origin CEO or a finance CEO takes charge, it spells a slow death for tech companies.

Losing the utmost respect for technology means losing a chance to compete globally.

Without spending three to five years on solid ground in the tech sector, it’s impossible to lead such a tech giant well.

Moreover, inheriting a position in this global-ranking third AI phone giant requires An’an to lower her stance and work diligently for a few years.

As for the other businesses under her control, Chen Pingsheng would oversee them remotely.

“Alright… Dad supports you. Go for it!”

With glee, An’an, now a mother of two, shows little change, “Dad, thank you, I always knew you’re the best. Also, Dad, please spend some time teaching Su Xiaoxi. I do find her promising, though she lacks family background. With your guidance, she can surpass any family upbringing.”

“Enough with the flattering, I don’t buy it.”

An’an plans to meet her sister to discuss upcoming investments.

Currently, any excess funds she has are entrusted to Er Piya for investment.

She simply relies on investment returns from her.

Er Piya is quite proficient at investing, having accrued significant success overseas in three years, and now shows little interest in hands-on management.

Compared to the arduous work in tangible businesses, using hundreds of billions to directly acquire large companies is far more satisfying.

Spending money is an art that needs to be cultivated from a young age.

Take someone like Su Xiaoxi, raised economically following separation from her irresponsible father, living frugally with Mrs. Su.

Counting living expenses on her fingers–asking her to take millions for investments seems less appealing than simply saving the money in the bank for stable annual interest income.

After all, everyone understands that investment is risky, and entrepreneurship requires caution.

Er Piya, however, is different; she has always spent lavishly and has no hesitation about investing hundreds of billions if she sees a promising opportunity.

Only through bold ventures can one win.

Losing tens to hundreds of billions doesn’t weigh on her mind.

If she gambled, guaranteeing no cheating from the casino, she could easily bankrupt the place using probability calculations and her resources.

If ten billion isn’t enough, she’ll put thirty billion; if thirty isn’t enough, then seventy billion; if seventy isn’t enough, she’ll pull out a hundred and fifty.

When betting on odds, the chance of losing ten to twenty times consecutively is negligible.

Yet, given her current status, traditional gambling holds no allure.

Now, she gambles with public companies.

The thrill from those enterprises–a whole different adrenaline rush.

Right now, Su Xiaoxi doesn’t even have the courage to gamble tens to hundreds of thousands on entrepreneurship.
