Chapter 220: Chapter 175 Low Inventory_3
Zhao Liying wasn't the type to engage in meaningless chatter; on the contrary, she was always very sincere in her speech.
It might not have sounded so pleasant, but it was definitely her genuine thoughts.
Chen Pingsheng poured her a cup of tea, "My youngest daughter turns one on the 28th, and I was hoping you'd stay in Capital City for a while."
"Look, Chen,"
Zhao Liying took a golden bracelet out of her bag, excitedly saying, "I had this made in advance for Little Xinyi, it even has a horse on it."
Xinyi was born in 2014, which indeed was the year of the horse.
"You're thoughtful."
Chen Pingsheng smiled and said, "Since you're so busy, I'll have Yanxi join you for dinner tonight, and we need to discuss two other matters."
"What's it about, Chen?"
"Bobo Milk Tea,"
Chen Pingsheng said, "I only own 30% of the company. The total investment is currently around sixty million, and we already have more than a hundred franchise stores. We're expecting to go public by the end of the year, and after Hua Qiangu airs, we'll even co-brand with it. I'll need your cooperation then, and here's some shares I'm giving you."
Zhao Liying looked at it, and the shares were a striking 8%.
If Bobo Milk Tea were to go public successfully, that portion of shares alone would be worth over a hundred million.
It was an incredibly significant income.
The pay she received at Tengying wasn't very high since most of the dramas were invested by her own company.
Taking too much always felt like the costs were too high.
Now that Chen had given her these 8% shares, it looked like she was set to rank high on the income list of entertainers in the entertainment industry again this year.
Zhao Liying smiled tenderly, "Then, thank you very much, Chen."
Chen Pingsheng always felt that among the new generation of young female actors, her acting was extraordinary.
Whatever she played, she easily made the audience immerse in the character she was portraying.
And made them believe that the character should indeed be performed in that particular way by her.
Thus, her future prospects were boundless.
By four in the afternoon.
Chen Pingsheng drove his Maybach S680 with Zhao Liying, and after picking up his younger cousin Jiang Peiyao and Bai Xin,
they all went to eat at Fei Yangyang.
...
Fei Yangyang in Capital City had been doing exceptionally well.
It almost became synonymous with good quality and reasonable price, both among young customers and the middle-aged and elderly consumer groups.
Fei Yangyang's reputation was excellent.
Zhao Liying always loved eating here whenever she returned to Capital City.
Only now, her fame required some deliberate covering up when she went out.
A mask, a hat, and big sunglasses were essential.
This was the inconvenient part of being a celebrity.
Yang Mi's case was even more exaggerated.
Once Hua Qiangu aired, Zhao Liying feared she might rival Yang Mi, toe-to-toe.
After the four of them arrived at the private room, Chen Pingsheng also called Chang Fu and Zhang Tao.
Unfortunately, Gao Hu was not in Capital City; he had been sent to Greater Guangdong,
tasked with market expansion there.
"Liying, we should complete Round C in June, and I'll also make a trip to Magic City then,"
"Great, Magic City is very close to Zhejiang. Chen, if you come, I'll treat you to a meal."
Zhao Liying was especially happy.
By the time Zhang Tao and Chang Fu arrived by car, Zhao Liying had already known Zhang Tao.
Back when they all lived in rentals, they often sold goods and ate together
Now, Tengsheng Fruit had become one of the top fruit brands in Capital City.
Zhang Tao, although not comparable to him, was definitely already a winner in life in terms of income.
As for Chang Fu, he was still running his live streaming guild.
This year, he recruited over a dozen more female anchors, earning a steady income of over ten million a year.
He could share seven or eight million of that with this side.
A very successful small project indeed.
"Old Chen, I've finally met the legendary big sister of Tengying."
Sitting next to Chen Pingsheng, Yang Qian, who had become the CEO of Bobo Milk Tea, was practically flying all over the country.
She could hardly count on one hand the days she could return to Capital City in a month.
Maybe she would get a bit of a break after the listing.
Yang Qian herself enjoyed this busy lifestyle.
When she worked at Zhengfu before, her daily tasks were basically repetitive.
Even the wealthiest bosses were quite inferior inside there.
Unless they were truly influential and could bring significant economic impact to the area.
Otherwise, they had to stand up and serve tea to everyone.
"Liying rarely returns to Capital, so don't scare her away."
Chen Pingsheng introduced them to each other; all three of them were married.
Zhang Tao's wife was a college student; Chang Fu's wife was the current CEO of Bobo Milk Tea.
Zhao Liying had always focused on shooting films, and everything else was handled by her company.
"Chen, why didn't you call sister-in-law and An'an over for dinner!"
"She needs to stay home with the kids."
Chen Pingsheng said, "You might not know, An'an's grades are terrible now, and though you might say she's mischievous, she's actually very sensible; and if you say she's not mischievous, she can mess up the stupidest things."
"Ah?" Zhao Liying used to often stay with Little An'an in the rental house, and they got along very well.
"Wasn't An'an very obedient before?"
"She's still obedient, never back talks what she's asked to do, it's just her imagination is a bit too rich."
Chen Pingsheng asked her, "By the way, are you getting used to filming in Hengdian, Zhejiang?"
He seldom asked her about this aspect, if it weren't for a wrap, Zhao Liying would only return to Capital once every few months. Continue your saga on m|v-l'e m,p| y- r
Naturally, she was used to shooting; she was often so busy that she had no time to sleep.
There were quite a few interesting things in the film crew.
Zhao Liying also started telling them about the fun incidents during the shoot, Chen Pingsheng found it very interesting.
When she went back, he wanted to place Jiang Peiyao with her.
Jiang Peiyao had been genuinely studying at Tengying for over a year, and being young, she would start working from supporting roles alongside her.
That was a high starting point.
Bai Lu was now also listed under Zhao Liying's studio, and he would transfer Jiang Peiyao there too.
She would essentially be mentoring two newcomers, the initial training might need her to pay a little extra attention.
But later on, when they became famous, she would enjoy the substantial benefits they brought.
Tengying still used a master-apprentice system to train newcomers.
Yang Mi hadn't started picking newcomers yet; she herself wanted to poach the silly Dilraba to her personal studio.
Zhao Liying had actually wanted to take Jiang Peiyao with her sooner; firstly, because her looks were indeed very appealing.
That was pretty much a gift from heaven.
Secondly, she was Chen Pingsheng's cousin; she had to take care of her in any case.
"Chen, I've wanted to bring Peiyao along for a while now, just scared you wouldn't want to let her go."
"What's there to not let go of, she needs to adapt to outside environments now,"
Jiang Peiyao indeed felt a bit reluctant, having gotten used to living in Capital already.
Everything was good, and she didn't need to worry about anything.
Now, by following to Zhejiang's film city, she was truly entering the entertainment industry.
