Reaching the age of thirty, my income randomly doubled

After dropping off the spoiled brat,

Pingsheng took the little fart kid with him to work at the company.

It was already September 10, and Magic City was still as hot as summer during the beginning of autumn.

It was still unbearably hot.

He was still driving his big Phantom with the starry sky roof, which was incredibly stable and yet overwhelmingly dominant.

By the time he arrived at the headquarters building, Chen Bufan had already been seriously standing at the entrance acting as security.

Seeing his earnest expression, Pingsheng would always remember how every time he came home, Chen Bufan would stand at the corner and shout from a distance, "Big brother is home, big brother is home."

Perhaps in his heart, he would always be that big brother.

The little fart kid also crisply yelled, "Uncle Bufan."

Chen Bufan scratched his head and chuckled sheepishly, as not many people within the company knew of their relationship.

Chen Bufan wouldn't deliberately mention it to others, remembering only his wife's instructions, as well as the words his aunt had told him.

"Bufan, come to my house for dinner tonight,"

Chen Bufan nodded vigorously, and after Pingsheng patted his shoulder with a smile, he then went to his rooftop office.

The little fart kid probably still didn't realize just how embarrassing it was to have shown her rear end during the live stream yesterday.

Today, upon arrival, she was still smiling at everyone.

She was wearing a little pair of overalls, cute and very lovable.

The main reason Pingsheng was willing to bring her to work was that she no longer soiled her pants anymore. Enjoy more content from empire

Zhang Wanyi came over, and Pingsheng had specifically asked her to assign a female employee to take care of the little fart kid.

Watch her closely, and don't let her run around everywhere.

"Boss, three film and television groups have made high offers to poach Shen Teng and Director Chen Sicheng,"

Speaking of the fastest rise in the entertainment industry this year, it was undoubtedly Shen Teng, Director Chen, and the others.

One had become Stephen Chow's successor, a representative of domestic comedy.

Another was unmatched in business and directorial talent.

It was not surprising at all that people were trying to poach them.

At present, Tengying Entertainment's total market value was 65 billion, and its soaring success could not be separated from the influence of these top industry figures.

After thinking for a moment, Pingsheng said, "Have legal draft a stock option contract, ten years in term, and give Shen Teng, Director Chen, and Wu Jing each 2%."

"They can only cash out after ten years."

Speaking seriously, no company should ever think about making all the money on its own.

That would only lead to capable individuals leaving one by one.

The three of them could support billions in valuation at any entertainment company, no doubt about it.

Offering stock options is undoubtedly the best retention strategy.

Even by the current market value, 2% amounts to 13 billion.

But that would only be cashed out after ten years.

With their influence, ten years is hardly enough to just earn that amount.

Not just for the three of them, Pingsheng also had Zhang Wanyi give Liu Yifei and Bai Lu 1.5% each.

Again, cashable only after ten years.

Sharing a bit of stock has the advantage of securing these top employees long-term.

This year's financial report for Tengying Entertainment could definitively be touted as unique in the entertainment industry.

Without such a strong financial report, the stock price could not have been supported so high.

To him, Tengying Entertainment now seemed more like a traffic depot.

As long as he could stabilize these top-tier stars, and use their influence to support other real brands,

the revenue would far exceed the value of the shares given away.

For the next five years, he definitely wouldn't cash out his shares in Tengying Entertainment.

He was no longer short of money.

The fact that Tengying Entertainment was giving stock options to its five pillars had also spread throughout the entertainment industry.

2% of shares might not seem much, but if you apply that to Tengying's stock price, it amounts to a whopping thirteen billion-dollar premium stock.

If one really had to endure ten years, and Tengying still held this stock price, then this share would be incredibly valuable.

Some companies that tried every possible means to poach from Tengying Entertainment simply disappeared.

Among them, Huayi and LeEco were the most active.

Watching Tengying Entertainment dominate the top three spots in the movie circle, you'd have to say their urgency was real.

Trying every possible means to poach talent became their essential strategy for overtaking on the curves.

Unfortunately for them, Tengying Entertainment had two advantages.

One was the generous boss, who frequently gave out tens of millions in bonuses.

The other was freedom, as the artists attached here were essentially working for themselves.

Without exceptionally high benefits, nobody was really willing to leave.

While celebrities might look glamorous and always seen in top-tier luxury cars,

those truly worth over a billion are certainly rare.

The stock options Tengying Entertainment is now offering will undoubtedly create another batch of the richest top stars in the entertainment circle.

Besides the two companies that tried every trick in the book to poach from his side.

Antler Coffee had already strategized its move overseas through its global headquarters in Xiangjiang.

He still held 20% of the shares in Antler Coffee.

All this money could be used for potential enhancements, and he naturally hoped for Antler Coffee's future development to flourish.

Currently, Antler Coffee's total market value is 26 billion.

Tenghui Department Store raced up to eighteen billion, with his personal net worth in shares already reaching around fifty billion.

It could be said to be extremely exaggerated.

The group's listed businesses were still very steady.

The main focus now was on laying out TikTok's new business.

What could be confirmed was that TikTok would officially launch on September 20th.

Chen Pingsheng had already established TikTok Live Streaming Development Group in Guangzhou.

The team that had been transferred so far already numbered up to five hundred, including internet celebrities, screenwriters, and top-tier photography teams.

Apart from these, he also pulled all the trainees over to the TikTok Development Group.

Xin Teng Live Streaming's development on this platform had peaked; there was no further road ahead.

The next step was to consolidate the platform's position and seek future listing opportunities.

On the other hand, he vigorously sprinted for the TikTok market.

Chen Pingsheng tapped his fingers, then allocated another three billion to the TikTok team in Guangzhou.

Apart from their own direct transfers to the team, whoever rose quickly on the platform would be signed.

If one looked at the development pace of Xin Teng Live Streaming, the TikTok team would undoubtedly become the next ace money-making project under his group.

When the trend arrived, what he needed to do was to follow up swiftly.

The headquarters also held meetings for three consecutive days, deciding that for the next half year, the group would focus development on TikTok and short dramas.

In addition, complement it with a racing mechanism to pick out from the platform those ace projects that could go public in the future.

Once all preparations were complete, they had already started planning rehearsals several months in advance.

All awaited TikTok's official launch.

The group's business was multifaceted, yet it all still connected through a main thread.

At different times, different development strategies were employed.

Like the already invested forty-five billion in new energy, the super factory was under construction.

The Ecological Park was the same, along with batteries, motor controls, and intelligent driving, among three aspects.

They were all vigorously recruiting top-tier R&D teams, tackling challenging obstacles.

It would take several years to define whether this was successful or not.

But at least for now, they were the most reliable force among those newly entering the electric car manufacturing industry,

as well as the highest investor.
