Reaching the age of thirty, my income randomly doubled

Wangcai Village has an old saying specifically used to describe children.

Seven or eight years old, even dogs would despise.

It means that when children reach the ages of seven or eight, they become universally hated for their mischievous and troublesome behaviors.

Chen An'an is only six years old this year, soon to be seven.

And he's already showing signs of reaching that "even dogs would despise" stage.

Sitting in the car, waving his little hand, those unaware might think he's the daughter of a high-ranking official on a tour.

Those who know better would see him as the foolish little girl from a landlord's family.

"That An'an, what did you learn today?"

Did she actually learn anything?

Chen An'an felt puzzled, having attended a day of classes yet feeling as if she hadn't.

The moment class ended, she forgot everything.

"Dad, are you asking me?"

The shrewd me decisively chose to play dumb.

Chen Pingsheng was quite annoyed and patted Song Yanxi's pregnant belly, "Yanxi, when this little one is born, we must teach her properly."

Song Yanxi didn't even answer him; she found little An'an very cute and liked her a lot.

Apart from not being great at studying, she had lots of good points.

Growing up, she would be unlikely to be taken advantage of by others.

"How much longer until Bai Xin arrives?"

"She can come today; she's really busy now. Relying on her to improve An'an's grades might not be very realistic."

"I think she teaches very well."

"No matter how well someone else teaches, tutoring isn't their main job. Hua Qiangu and Three Lives Three Worlds both have her in the cast; even if the dramas don't become major hits upon release, at least a modest success is still guaranteed."

Song Yanxi nodded, feeling somewhat disappointed. Finding a tutor that both satisfies her and is liked by little An'an is truly not easy.

Bai Xin arrived that evening, having bought herself a new Honda Civic worth over a hundred thousand for commuting.

She didn't even go home for the New Year, busy with filming.

Once their family returned to Capital City, their home tutor immediately came to report for duty.

Chen Pingsheng had returned to Capital City but had yet to visit Tengying Entertainment; Bai Xin updated him on the latest developments.

Recently this month, a lot of drama groups seeking investment from Tengying were knocking on their door, mostly small groups, but there was also one super big group.

"Uncle, you must have heard of The Great Wall. It's said to unite half of the entertainment industry's top influencers, with an investment of over a billion yuan, and it's a Chinese-American co-production. This is definitely the biggest pie in the entertainment industry this year."

Bai Xin spoke excitedly, explaining that they had approached her side to offer Tengying a 5% investment opportunity.

That's fifty million yuan, talked about as if it was charity.

Bai Xin continued, "Not only did they approach us, but Feiying has also invested eighty million yuan."

Chen Pingsheng's ability to analyze the entertainment industry didn't extend to the film sector; he could only analyze television dramas.

Besides, even if he could analyze, he wouldn't invest.

He would, at most, be a spectator.

A billion yuan investment, to cast a leading actress without box-office appeal, and then surround her with a bunch of fresh-faced boys—

If that could make money, then it must be because the audience is blind.

Everyone present had a responsibility.

Chen Pingsheng established Tengying Entertainment with only two objectives: one was to make money; the other was to leverage the entertainment industry's traffic to support his other businesses.

If it wasn't for those purposes, convincing him to invest was out of the question.

He certainly wouldn't spend money promoting the likes of an untalented actress.

"Forget the movies for now, I'm not considering any investment at the moment."

He wouldn't engage in unsure ventures; even with ninety percent certainty, he would consider it for three days.

"Then there's this one, Uncle. I think you should take a look,"

Bai Xin handed him a script. As Tengying Entertainment's only janitor and CEO's secretary, her position in the entertainment industry was actually not low.

Those who met her had to respectfully call her, "Teacher Bai."

As the uncle's sole personal secretary, she clearly remembered her boss's instructions.

"This actress named Dilraba plays in 'Claralover,' and she's stunningly beautiful. Beauty aside, it's really her hips that are exceptional. Uncle, I swear, I've seen plenty of beautiful women, but such a gorgeous butt, I have only seen this one in the entire entertainment industry."

"Really?"

He'd been searching for a worthy hip-endorsing ambassador, as Yang Mi was for the chest—someone he hadn't found yet.

Hip care is a major project at Water Cloud Space.

Tell me, which woman doesn't want to be able to strike a forty-five-degree pose in her yoga pants?

The kind where you can balance a water cup and even bend it.

"Show me her information," he said.

"Sure, uncle. She's with the same company as Yang Mi," the assistant replied.

"That doesn't matter. Yang Mi has a bad impression of me now, doesn't even reply to my messages, so it's probably unlikely I'll be able to get her," he admitted.

Bai Xin was a bit surprised; in her memory, the uncle only showed interest in his own wife, and all other women were just a blur of white and chunks of flesh in his eyes.

They completely failed to pique his interest, yet here he was giving special treatment to Yang Mi.

Of course, she thought it was no surprise for any man to like Yang Mi, after all, she was the famous queen of the drama circle.

"Uncle, you've been trying to chat with her?" she asked curiously.

"Chat? Hardly," he scoffed.

Chen Pingsheng explained, "I just wanted her to shoot a few more promotional photos for breast care at Water Cloud Space. Isn't her endorsement contract not expired yet?"

Bai Xin understood; no wonder Yang Mi wouldn't give you the time of day, uncle, what were you expecting?

She wasn't aware that the last breast care endorsement had left Yang Mi utterly furious.

Now you're still looking for her to take photos of her chest, and it's a man saying this.

Of course she wouldn't bother with you.

She's a queen, dominating and unrivaled. Yang Mi's status was long beyond the ordinary, and she wouldn't indulge average investors.

"Uncle, do you think it's possible she's blocked you by now?" she questioned.

"She couldn't have, could she?" he said uncertainly.

Chen Pingsheng was a bit unsure and even went so far as to check Yang Mi's WeChat.

He typed five words, "Hello, have you eaten?"

And sent it.

Ding, message not sent.

She really had blocked him. That woman went too far.

One day, he'd have to sign her over.

Chen Pingsheng was embarrassed, "You really guessed it," he admitted.

"Uncle, with Yang Mi's status in the entertainment industry, she wouldn't fall for the same trap twice. I think this one is quite suitable," Bai Xin suggested, pointing at Dilraba.

Chen Pingsheng liked her figure too; indeed, her hips were even superior to Yang Mi's.

But her fame was nowhere sufficient compared to Queen Yang's; they were leagues apart.

The female lead of this drama, on the other hand, was quite famous and could be considered on the same level as Yang Mi.

They were both leading figures of the Eighty-Five Flower group.

It's just that her figure was skinny and lacking in substance.

Even if she offered him money, he couldn't make her the spokesperson for Water Cloud Space.

The main projects of high-end beauty care were about health maintenance, such as anti-aging for women, freckle removal, whitening, and increasing breast size from A to B then from B to D.

Just about anything related to the female body could be done.

There's nothing that men can't imagine that beauty salons can't do.

Take hip care, for example. It could be gradually inclined towards forty-five degrees through products coupled with the beautician's handiwork.

Same with breast care, using branded products and beautician's special techniques to massage a specific area to achieve from small A to large D results over time.

This might sound exaggerated, but even with the best efforts, a small A could only realistically be increased to size B or close to C.

See, this was something Chen Pingsheng learned only after experiencing high-end beauty care at Water Cloud Space.

Gentlemen could also resolve sub-health or numerous physiological issues, but to ensure the professionalism and integrity of Water Cloud Space,

he chose not to offer those services.

Beauty and health care, the forefront of the hospital industry, is nothing to scoff at.

It truly can prevent many serious diseases in advance.

Beauty and health care align more closely with traditional Chinese medicine.

The high expenses have their reasons; of course, it's also highly profitable.

But isn't every industry connected to hospitals extremely profitable?

A doctor's prescription alone can easily run into thousands or tens of thousands—that's perfectly normal.
