Chapter 581 - 374: The Group’s Return-to-Farming Initiative



After his return,

Pingsheng and the others, including Guo Ziyi and Tong Zelan, sat in the office drinking tea.

Outside the floor-to-ceiling windows was Victoria Harbour, his grandiose Xiangjiang headquarters that cost him over ten billion.

By the end of this month, the once-a-year Splendid Night will kick off in Capital City.

Probably another two or three billion could be cashed out.

As for the thirty-nine billion cashed out from the Yateng Short Drama this time, his wife no longer requires any subsidy from him.

With the income from Water Cloud Space alone, the money she gets each year she can hardly spend.

Nor can she handle such a large investment.

Pingsheng still plans to spend nineteen billion in support of Tengnong Breeding, leaving twenty billion for himself to seek new investment opportunities.

Chances are, he’ll invest in shares of large enterprises, but without a target for now, he’ll have to wait.

Guo Ziyi has recently been investing overseas, while Tong Zelan has become a well-known investment queen in the domestic market.

They’re doing the same thing, not putting all their eggs in one basket.

Most of their assets have been moved to overseas markets.

Only Pingsheng has transferred a very small portion out.

After finishing here, he took his private plane back to Magic City.

Because Yateng Short Drama is gearing up to make a push on video streaming sites in the near future.

So, he didn’t go straight to Financial University, but to the headquarters of Tengying Group.

Setting aside short videos for now, owning Xin Teng Live Streaming and Teng You Media, he only needs to move some resources to Yateng to easily create their own short video platform.

As for whether videos other than short dramas can be popular, he isn’t sure.

This will have to be a watch-and-act situation.

Tengying Entertainment is indeed half the entertainment industry, with innumerable top-tier celebrities.

Furthermore, countless talented directors are signed with them.

They exemplify having both money and people.

For Yateng Video to truly thrive, it can’t just rely on being large and comprehensive.

Developing its own core signature projects is most critical.

In the area of short videos, they definitely can’t compete with TikTok.

For TV dramas and movies, they can’t compare with Aiyouteng either.

So, what else besides short dramas could attract people?

Pingsheng’s mind wandered to an inappropriate thought – had it not been for the crackdown on QVOD, 80% of domestic video streaming sites might not have taken off.

The action films fought out in closed rooms, those are the supreme driving force for video streaming sites.

It was a good thought but alas, it was just fanciful daydreaming.

It was the buxom secretary Zhang Wanyi who delivered him an industry research report; films and TV dramas aside, domestic comics have been doing exceptionally well in recent years.

The animation market used to be almost totally dominated by Small Day, with Naruto, One Piece, or even Ultraman gaining worldwide popularity.

In comparison, domestically, the best we have are Teletubbies, Haier Brothers, and of course, Journey to the West, which we grew up watching.

However, the technical side of domestic 2D comics has shown significant progress.

So, the domestically popular comics this year include The Outcast, The King’s Avatar, Battle Through the Heavens, and Painting Rivers and Lakes: The Cup That Cannot Stop, among others.

Domestic comics are undoubtedly a burgeoning segment in the entertainment arena.

Instead of fighting with Aiyouteng over a share of the old market, it’s better to venture into this newly rising domestic comics segment.

Having reviewed the data on domestic comics for the past two years, Pingsheng made a bold decision and allocated one billion from Yateng Short Drama to establish his own domestic comics investment division.

He’s going all out to develop domestic comics.

The money earned from the stupid short dramas of Yateng Short Drama had not been distributed yet, and now it’s going to be used for something big.

To produce domestic comics, one must first purchase the rights of popular classic novels like Mortal Cultivation Biography, Douluo Continent, etc.

He has already invested the money, so what remains is to leave it to the professionals to handle.

In addition, Tengying Entertainment dispatched a vice president to oversee Yateng Video.

This clearly shows how much importance he places on this project.

...

Days leisurely pass by.

Before we know it, it’s almost middle of December.

The Tengying Group is preparing to launch its first intern return-to-farming event, which sets off in three days.

Including travel time, the whole event is half a month long.

Even Er Piya at home has bought herself a super complete set of farming equipment.

Chen Pingsheng looked at it and was at a loss for words.

A pair of overalls that reach her shoulders, and a straw hat larger than an umbrella.

Plus, there are five pairs of toad sunglasses.

Night vision, sun-blocking, and one pair to transform into little Ultraman.

Aside from these ridiculously exaggerated equipment, she also bought a hoe online that’s suitable for her age – useless for digging, but good for everything else.

She even got a bamboo basket taller than herself, which is standard in the countryside.

"Er Ya, who told you to buy all these things?"

"Of course, it was sister."

Er Ya wiggles her little butt, her hands busily shuffling around.

"Dad, I’m all set with the equipment, right?"

"It’s quite complete, but are you sure all these things will be used in the countryside?"

She hasn’t really been to the countryside before, so how would she know!

Er Piya scratches her head, doesn’t care anymore, and once she heard about going to the countryside to catch crabs, she was determined to be number one at crab-catching.

Poor Er Ya, she thought the crabs in the countryside would be like those at the Tenghui market, tied with strings for you to catch?

If she accidentally gets pinched, it could make someone her age cry for a long time.

Er Ya is very interested in this kind of activity, brimming with enthusiasm.

She’s all sprightly.

Since this is a return-to-farming activity organized by the group, there were specialized itinerary and reception arrangements all along the way.

December 14th.

Tengying Group deployed twenty-nine super large buses.

Additionally, there are five Mercedes-Benz Coaster MVPs departing from Magic City after one in the afternoon, heading to Southern Province.

They would pass through two tourist attractions on the way, making brief stops before continuing their journey.

These thousand-plus passengers are the campus interns recruited by Tengying Group this year.

The six MVP vehicles are mainly for the high-ranking executives of Tengying Group.

This includes Chu Qiuyan, Chang Fu, Yang Qian, and other such people. @@novelbin@@

Plus, there are a few vice president-level high-ranking executives.

As for Chen Pingsheng, he is traveling in his own long-distance dedicated vehicle, a top-of-the-line 12-seater Coaster.

Er Piya is carrying a big backpack and following him, and Chen An’an is also cheerily hopping over.

The two little ones are especially happy; once this return-to-farming operation ends, it will be the New Year of 2018.

The total journey is 1050 kilometers, and if they don’t stop in the middle, they could reach Sha City in eleven hours.

Since it’s an intern activity organized by the group, it’s also a large-scale team building event to some extent.

Thus, they will make brief stops at two places, namely Mount Huang and the ceramic capital, Jingdezhen.

There will be professional tour guides leading them throughout the journey.

Among these interns, there are students from Financial University like Lin Qiunan, and his own teaching assistant, Jiang Yilan.

The entire itinerary is meticulously calculated by the group’s secretariat office, practically flawless.

By the time they get to Sha City, it will probably be the evening of the 16th.
