Reaching the age of thirty, my income randomly doubled-Chapter 721 - 529: The Big Big Big President
During the Spring Festival period, Chen Pingsheng took the spoiled brat to Capital City to visit people and pay his respects.
He knew that there would soon be restrictions on short dramas.
Previously, no review was needed and they could be broadcast immediately after filming, but now they have to be submitted to the national departments for review and approval to obtain broadcasting rights.
The difference here is extremely significant.
For example, if a drama can't be aired after filming, it's a total loss.
And the risk involved is high.
Compared to the restrictions on short dramas, another move in the entertainment circle would have a much bigger impact.
That would be the implementation of a salary cap.
To put it plainly, the entertainment industry in the Mainland is too distorted now. Even without good acting skills, one can still rake in tens of millions in fees.
It's worlds apart compared to the entertainment industry in Kimchi Country.
Over there, even national-level movie stars can't earn as much as a fresh-faced celebrity in the Mainland.
This is totally abnormal.
If it's not regulated, all the students will grow up only wanting to be celebrities or internet stars.
The days when a whole class aspired to be scientists will be no more.
This definitely isn't good for a country's future.
Chen Pingsheng himself attended such high-level meetings twice last year, and he has always proposed that a pay cap in the entertainment industry is imperative.
Without control, the slightest scratch on an actor could make headlines, while a national-level scientist would die without any public attention.
Isn't that a sad reflection of our times?
If the salary cap comes into effect, it will definitely boost the stock price of Tengying Entertainment.
Making money from filming dramas isn't just talk.
If it weren't for the attractive men and women in the industry, very few people would rely on producing works to make a living.
Yateng Short Drama is, after all, a leading player in the industry, and it's basically impossible for it to return to its former glory.
But making money shouldn't be a problem, since it not only produces short dramas.
It also has a Yateng Video APP with over fifty million users.
The future development focus would simply shift from short dramas to video websites.
As for the entertainment industry's salary cap, it's certain to come this year, but he can't say exactly when.
That's a good thing, there's no need to worry about it.
With plenty of surplus funds, Chen Pingsheng suddenly fancied that his current houses were lacking something.
For instance, the Tan Palace Villa is definitely big enough, but it lacks a sense of grandeur and opulence.
Then there's his current 600+ square meter apartment; it's spacious enough to live in, and the external environment is also top-notch.
But it still lacks certain facilities.
The kind of opulence he imagines is a super villa that can satisfy family gatherings, top-level medical care, sky gardens, basketball courts, and offers everything imaginable.
The greatest benefit of having money is being able to implement whatever you dream about at night, right away during the day.
Chen Pingsheng plans to build this super villa not in the city center but out in Golden Mountain.
He just needs to wait until the headquarters there is completed, then he will definitely settle in Golden Mountain for the long term.

He has no interest in any ordinary Tower King Villas now; they lack appeal.
He hasn't even visited the billion-dollar resort villa built in Qingdao.
Thinking about it, he decides to go ahead with it after consulting his wife.
Song Yanxi, in the living room teaching her son not to be too honest to avoid being tricked by women, exuded a dominant presence.
She's really unmatched; Little Third is, at most, a year and a half old.
Listening very attentively, biting his fingers and wiggling his butt, turns his head and is about to be bullied again.
"Husband, how can we make Little Third more domineering?"
"What do you mean by 'domineering' exactly?" Chen Pingsheng asked her, puzzled.
Song Yanxi hummed, "That little girl downstairs who always bullies him and cries whenever she sees him."
"That's called domineering? Wouldn't that make him a bully?" Chen Pingsheng looked at his wife speechlessly.
The little girl downstairs was quite cute, and she was about the same age as Little Third, Chen Lu.
Her adorable demeanor is also unmatched.
What agitated Song Yanxi the most was that the little girl tells Little Third to go east, and he never goes west.
If she tells him to squat down with hands on his head, he wouldn't stand up even while pooping.
It was so frustrating.
"Honey, whose side are you really on?"
"Of course, I'm on your side, but you've got to be reasonable."
Chen Pingsheng said, "There's something I want to discuss with you."
"What is it?"
"I want to go to Golden Mountain and build a big house according to my own ideas."
"Do you even need to discuss that with me?"
Song Yanxi asked, puzzled: "How much would it cost to build a big house over there? Just spend a few billion if you want to."
"I estimate it'll cost 30 billion."
"What?" Song Yanxi almost doubted her hearing. This wasn't Xiangjiang, and Golden Mountain was certainly not the Magic City area.
Building a house there does not require tens of billions just for land.
"I just had a dream yesterday, and then I spent tens of billions to build a super villa."
Chen Pingsheng said, "It's the kind of super villa with all the functionality, and I want to fulfill my dream."
You call that a dream?
Wasn't that just a thought you had in your sleep?
Song Yanxi naturally wouldn't mind; even if her husband spent more money, she wouldn't say anything.
If you can spend it, you can earn it; it's a simple principle.
Chen Pingsheng had only a minor plan without even a basic frame, and that didn't matter.
It was entirely possible to hand it over to top design teams.
As for where to build the super villa, it depends on where the scenery is slightly better.
He'd quite like to buy a small mountain and build an exclusive villa there, to get the feeling of being the King of the Mountain.
Land in Magic City isn't free.
Chen Pingsheng put this aside for now; it wasn't urgent.
Because Er Piya had already thought about how she's going to be a big, big, big CEO.
Er Piya's idea wasn't a whim; since her sister had a headquarters at The Bund, she'd always wanted to have one herself.
And now, she finally got her wish.
Er Piya walked over with exaggerated small steps, making sure each footstep was planted firmly.
"Dad, Dad, I want to be the president who spends money!"
"What do you mean?"
Chen Pingsheng didn't quite understand her at first, but Er Piya explained,
"It's like her sister, who doesn't care about making money, only spending it."
"Then forget it, how about this instead; I'll hire twenty employees for you, and you can just spend money on them. Whatever you want to do, just tell them. One billion a year, and you're sure to overspend."
Chen Pingsheng thought it would be good to use some money to train her spending skills.
She at least had to learn how to control costs.
If she spends this one billion ahead of time, then those twenty people serving her will have to disband because they can't afford salaries.
What complex games can a five-year-old little fart kid do?
If she really spends in advance, and these people have developed some attachment to her, she'll probably cry a lot when they have to disband early.
Chen Pingsheng thought about it and suddenly felt this idea was excellent; even more money cannot withstand unplanned, reckless spending.
Er Ya should also start learning to control money slowly.
This was never meant to teach them how to save money, but to plan and control costs.
The spoiled brat now spends two billion a year quite well.
Why do you think the children of wealthy families are exposed to a completely different world from the moment they are born? They're raised with real gold and silver.
Er Piya, who always likes to outdo her sister, is full of confidence.
All twenty people had to be picked by herself.
If they're not as cute as her, they're not needed.
Even more so if they're cuter than her.
If they're not as smart as her, she doesn't want them either.
Hmm... That won't work; the only person smarter than her in the whole world is her Dad.
Er Piya cleverly set these two little rules.
A five-year-old girl can't be too outrageous, no matter what she does.
Chen Pingsheng thought he still needed to add a bit more Luck value to her; that way, she might be free from illness and misfortune for life.
