Chapter 316: Guangdong Storm

The farmhouse arranged by Gao Hu.

On the hillside, the scenery is beautiful and there are many geese.

Guangdong people like to eat farmhouse food the most, and high-end gatherings are usually arranged in farmhouses.

After Chen Pingsheng and his party came, Gao Hu first talked about the development of Guangdong Feiyangyang, and then talked about some small entrepreneurial plans supported by the Dream Fund.

Not to mention, there are really a few store managers who are doing quite well.

Seriously speaking, Chen Pingsheng is not too eager to invest in the catering industry, mainly because he estimates that with the decline in housing prices in a few years.

The competition in the catering industry will be beyond imagination.

To put it bluntly, it is a competition of cost performance. Under the extreme cost performance, it is difficult to guarantee the high salary that employees deserve.

This is also the main reason why Feiyangyang's stock price has never exceeded 10 billion.

You should know that it has more than 1,000 self-operated stores across the country, which is almost close to 1,800.

The investment in these stores alone will not be less than 3 billion.

And its stock price is still only 8 billion.

Most of the income is used to pay employees.

"Lao Chen, the new self-service fast food is very popular now. I know several store managers who opened such stores and they are doing quite well."

For a chef, the best way to start a business is naturally to open a restaurant.

There are generally two types of so-called new fast food. One is full self-service, where you can eat as much as you want for a certain price.

The other is to use a plate to serve yourself, and the price is charged by weight.

Obviously, the second one is more in line with the market economy.

Chen Pingsheng said: "The era of internal circulation in the catering industry is estimated to be less than three years. Unless the catering industry in the future is really very distinctive, it will be an era of price competition."

He is also a reminder, in other words, it means small profits but quick turnover.

Follow the same model as Feiyangyang.

If you can't provide the same service as Haidilao, then provide value for money.

After a pause, he continued, "You may not have felt it yet, but Chu Qiuyan's Bobo Milk Tea is clearly feeling the pressure. Four or five new milk tea shops have popped up on the same street. Fortunately, she transformed into milk tea and ice cream in the early years, otherwise it would be very sad now."

In comparison, Lujiao Coffee has developed very well, mainly because there are few competitors.

There is only one competitor of the same level, Starbucks.

The overall consumer market is going downhill, although it is not very obvious, but it can be felt.

The simplest point is that there is less public spending on food and drink.

This alone has a huge impact.

Chen Pingsheng will no longer invest in high-end restaurants. There is no need for that.

The future environment does not allow it.

The small and fine model is bound to become a new trend in the catering industry.

Gao Hu also agreed, "Old Chen, you are going to Tengying Art School this afternoon, right?"

"I will go after dinner. This time I came mainly to increase the investment in short dramas and Tengyou Media. Maybe I will buy a large headquarters here, which is dedicated to the development of Tengyou Media and short dramas."

"You have spent 20 billion on the headquarters building in recent years, right?"

Gao Hu was amazed.

The Guangzhou Baiyun headquarters has a 28-story building, and Hong Kong has spent more than 10 billion, including Shanghai and Beijing.

These buildings alone are worth tens of billions.

"About the same."

Chen Pingsheng smiled and said, "Look at the foodie look of the big fart. If I don't spend more money to buy commercial real estate, I'm really afraid that she won't be able to keep the small assets at home in the future."

Chen Anan, who was eating with relish, put down the big goose leg in her hand immediately after hearing this.

"Dad, you have to work hard. Just buying a house is not enough. It's better to buy a big island and build a small country on it."

Wow, Chen Anan was amused by her own idea.

"You have watched too many Teletubbies and you are always thinking about it."

Chen Pingsheng didn't bother to pay attention to her. His wife was unexpectedly pregnant again. He didn't know if it was a boy.

Anyway, their family was looking forward to it.

After the meal, they went to Tengying Art School in Huadu.

Xu Jing handed him an online survey form. Tengying Art School eliminated two thousand students at one time some time ago.

The online storm was still quite big.

I have only heard of corporate layoffs, but I have never heard of an art school laying off students so vigorously.

After some students went home, they simply didn't look for the reasons in themselves, but kept blaming the school.

This also led to countless parents cursing on the Internet. These days, anyone with a mobile phone can be a keyboard warrior.

Chen Pingsheng didn't care at all.

His own school doesn't make money from tuition fees, so why should he indulge those interns who don't take classes seriously and only want to fall in love after class.

That's right, all the students in this art school are regarded as his own interns.

The company provides them with learning subsidies and salaries, not for them to fall in love.

This first wave of eliminations only makes everyone feel the cruelty of Tengying Art School.

After three years, it is very good to have 100 people left out of 5,000 people.

Of course, if someone is eliminated, someone will be replaced.

This is actually similar to the artist training class he held in Tengying Entertainment in the early days.

Bai Lu, the winner of the first artist training class, is now firmly in the first line.

Without going through a bitter cold, how can the plum blossoms smell fragrant.

Chen Pingsheng said: "Don't pay attention to these. Please help me pay attention to the office buildings for sale here. I plan to buy another building to use as the headquarters of Tengyou Media."

The Douyin APP was launched on September 20th. After two months of development, the number of users has also grown exponentially.

It has to be said that Douyin really has its unique advantages in user recommendation and core algorithms.

Purchasing a separate headquarters building also means that he has completely raised the newly established Tengyou Media to the same level as Xinteng Live.

It is time to start supporting it vigorously.

Once Douyin really becomes popular, the commercial value derived from Tengyou Media will be far beyond the catering startup.

The Dream Fund will also really start from Tengyou Media.

Chen Anan on the side also pricked up her ears and listened carefully. It was difficult for her to hear what the teacher said in school, but she could hear everything her father said.

Maybe she really has a little business talent.

Arrived at the gate of the magnificent art school.

Chen Pingsheng parked the car outside and walked in.

The female principal and the teachers inside came to meet him at the gate. Along the way, most of the students could be seen craning their necks to watch.

Chen Pingsheng also greeted people with a smile along the way.

Chen Anan in front was different. She almost said such shameless words as "Hello, comrades, you have worked hard, comrades".

She had her hands behind her back and her poor academic performance did not prevent her from attracting everyone's attention.

There was no way, her father was so awesome.

As a result, whenever she came to his own company, it was like a king patrolling the mountains.

What if she studied hard and could get into Tsinghua University or Peking University in the future? Even if she didn't study hard, there were still a lot of students from Tsinghua University and Peking University vying to work for her.

This is the advantage of reincarnation.

"Dad, was I very handsome just now?"

"Handsome, so handsome that I almost fell apart."

After listening to the work reports of several principals in the office, Chen Pingsheng prepared to participate in the school-wide speech event.

This was specially arranged by Xu Jing. The main reason was that the art school had already vigorously promoted that students should shoot more short videos when they had nothing to do.

Many people didn't take it seriously at all.

This also led to the fact that short videos did not become popular in the art school at all.

Without even a basic number of fans, Tengyou Media would not have signed them.

If you want a media company to become popular, you must have the ability to continuously produce big internet celebrities.

To put it bluntly, this place can be both a short drama shooting base and an internet celebrity training base.

It can also be the top training cradle for the future entertainment industry.

Only by combining the three can you maximize profits.

After all, he has to invest 300 to 400 million yuan in this high-level art school every year.

Half of it is for the salary of this group of interns, and the other half is naturally for the teacher's salary and food and accommodation expenses.

Such a large investment is equivalent to the total annual profit of two or three A-share listed companies.

If there is only investment without return, no company can maintain this for a long time.

Therefore, short videos and short drama shooting must be popular in the art school.

There are thousands of people in the audience, and on the stage are some school leaders, as well as him, the big boss.

Fortunately, the weather is not bad today, one is not too scorching sun, and two is not too strong southeast wind.

After Chen Pingsheng patted his microphone, he said:

"Before coming here, I saw a lot of comments online, basically saying that our art school is a vampire company, and even a company that eats people without spitting out bones, and scolding the boss as a conscienceless capitalist."

Zhang Zihan came the earliest, and she took a seat at the front.

Maybe others don't know the story of the big boss, but she knows it very well.

He is really a legend in the business world, but he is too low-key and will not expose his speech video on the Internet.

So few people know that he is also the famous boss of Shuiyunjian.

Seriously speaking, she also tried to sign up for Shuiyunjian, but unfortunately the number of applicants there has soared to more than 100,000 only three days after the quota was released.

It's impossible to squeeze in.

Such a big boss, how can they easily contact him outside.

But she was quite puzzled, why is there an eight or nine-year-old girl sitting next to him?

"I can understand why the eliminated people curse like this. After all, it's inevitable to vent some resentment, but this can't change my school-running principles."

"I would also like to kindly remind you that there will be a baseline test every month in the future. In my mind, no more than 100 of the first 5,000 students who enter in the three-year semester will be able to get a diploma and successfully sign a contract with Tengying Entertainment."

"It's probably one person out of 50, so you'd better give up those unrealistic fantasies. If you don't even have the qualifications to make it out of 5,000 people, then I want to ask you, why do you want to enter the entertainment industry and become a big star?"

"You can't even do this, and you are destined to be a waste in the future. Why should I spend resources on a waste? It's better to let you go to the factory to screw screws earlier."

Chen Pingsheng spoke without any mercy, and there was no so-called high-sounding.

In a word, if you can't fight your parents and yourself, then get out as soon as possible.

He is not lacking in the ruthlessness that entrepreneurs should have.

It's because he knows that reality is cruel.

If you don't work hard, it's impossible to expect others to hold an umbrella for you.

"Many people come here and brag in front of their friends or family before they even start studying, saying they want to be a big star, they are destined to be extraordinary, and then they start to block their old friends, don't want to listen to anyone, and want to chase after pretty female classmates."

"Excuse me, this kind of people are only suitable for screwing in factories."

"I'm not here to encourage you, because my rules are here. Those who can't do it will be eliminated directly. I also ask you to recognize yourselves. You don't have to pay tuition fees, and food and accommodation are free. You can get a salary of 3,000 yuan every month without doing anything."

"In other words, you haven't created a penny of value for my company, and the money you are paid is created by tens of thousands of people in the company."

"So, they work hard to make money, why do they support a group of losers."

"Why do you call us losers?"

A young man stood up. He was a little talented and thought he was very strong.

Who knew that Chen Pingsheng didn't even look up at him, "Not bad, you are very courageous."

"I'm telling the truth. Just because you have a little money, you can call us losers?"

He thought he was right and didn't think there would be any bad consequences.

After all, before entering the school, the school said a lot of good things about the big boss.

Chen Pingsheng didn't give him a chance to speak again, and waved his hand to have him driven out.

"I don't know what he has the confidence to refute me in public. If you also think he is right, you can stand up and leave."

It is very ruthless, that is the fact.

No one stood up stupidly anymore, Chen Pingsheng still reminded them, "The entertainment industry is very cruel. When you have no strength, you have to bend down and be a grandson. If you can't even do this, I really don't know what you can do to make it in the entertainment industry in the future."

"Let's not talk nonsense. Last month, one of you named Zhang Zihan filmed three short dramas. Please stand up and see which one she is."

Zhang Zihan was quite unexpected. Her parents saw this name on TV.

I gave her this name because I thought it sounded good.

She has beautiful eyebrows and eyes, and can be regarded as a very outstanding little beauty.

She is also around 20 years old.

Chen Pingsheng smiled and said, "First of all, I have to congratulate you. One of the three dramas you filmed became popular and the income is very high. You should be able to get 5 million cash dividends at the end of the month."

Swish..., the whole audience was shocked.

Zhang Zihan was shocked, and the girl next to her was still grinning at her.

"Sit down, the short play is also an extra income guarantee I bring to you. If you have time in the future, you can shoot more.

"Maybe there will be a high income. After all, in addition to the fixed shooting salary, we will also have a certain proportion of the protagonist dividends.

"In addition, the rise of short videos is definitely a new track for young people. Our group has also established its own Tengyou Media. If you can achieve more than one million fans, even if you are eliminated, Tengyou Media will give you a future."

"If you can sign a contract to become an Internet celebrity there, your future income will not be less than three or five hundred thousand.

"This is much better than going to the factory to screw screws after being eliminated. Everyone, be sure to cherish the new era opportunities created by the group for you. "

Chen Pingsheng still emphasized to remind them.

...

The student who left was Zhang Gang, 21 years old.

He thought that with his excellent test scores, even if he stood up to refute a few words, everyone would only applaud for him.

Who knew that no one would speak up for him.

Before coming to Tengying Art School, he was just a hairdressing student. After coming here, everyone told him not to forget himself when he became a big star in the future.

Gradually, he developed some arrogant personality, and even posted in his circle of friends that the former brothers were not worthy of being his brothers anymore.

Then he took the initiative to delete and block Most of his former classmates and friends.

Only those who he thought were worthy of being his brothers remained.

This time when the big boss came, he had actually been thinking about how to make a big splash.

When he heard them being called useless, he thought of the man on the stage who used to be a durian seller on the street.

Why scold them? If you give him time, he may not be worse than him.

But he didn't expect it.

He just stood there and loudly refuted a few words, but what he got in return was not applause.

Instead, everyone was silent and stared at him like a fool. No one treated him as a hero.

The teachers who praised him for his talent in the past , and endless indifference.

She didn't even bother to look at him again.

Perhaps she didn't expect that she would teach such a stupid student.

After coming out, Zhang Gang just found that he seemed to have lost something important.

It was a door that had been opened to him, but now it was closed.

When he wanted to enter the entertainment industry again, he found that he couldn't find the way at all.

It seemed that this road had completely disappeared. The talents and achievements he thought of were nothing after he really left this door.

Maybe he felt sad, disappointed, and wronged.

At his age, he was still the only child in the family. He was controlled by his parents since he was a child. He was raised with praise.

Even if he often fought in school, he was only scolded by the teacher.

He never thought that he would be expelled just because of two rebuttals.

Then, he could never find the way to the entertainment industry.

Even if all the teachers told him that he had talent, it was still the same.

In fact, what he least expected was the same.

It was not that he could become a big star because of his talent, but whoever the person on the stage wanted to become a big star.

Whoever was the big star was the big star.

This was the reality. Why would a worthless person refute him in public?

Chen Pingsheng believed that this was due to the lack of social punishment.

He spends hundreds of millions every year to run the school, not to let them refute him openly.

It's not stupid, but he was protected too well by his parents.

After leaving here, Zhang Gang went to Hengdian to be an extra. After several years of squandering more than 200,000 yuan from his rural parents, he was still unknown.

It was hard to support himself.

On the other hand, those who entered the school with him and eventually stayed.

With the support of Tengying Entertainment, they have already been in a different world.

Even if they meet again, people will not bother to look at him.

No one will laugh at his stupidity at that time.

Who told him to forget his birth and forget that he was just a rural child.
