Isn't that Shen Wanning and Yang Fenghuang?
Chen Pingsheng went over to find them. Jiang Peiyao rarely came to the bar, and today she was there just because the first trainee competition had graduated, so she went out to have fun with her colleagues.
Indeed, they had all signed with Tengying Entertainment.
Those who were eliminated went to Xin Teng Live Streaming.
Someone tapped her on the shoulder from behind. Jiang Peiyao was instinctively surprised and turned around with a small thrill of excitement.
"Ah… Brother-in-law!"
"What brings you to the bar?"
He had to get close to her ear for her to hear him. Jiang Peiyao's ears turned red at his whisper.
She was like a little girl caught misbehaving by an adult.
"Brother-in-law, Xiaoxiao said we should celebrate, so we came to the bar."
"Oh." Yang Xiaoxiao was Old Yang's daughter from his president class. She should call him Uncle Chen.
She was a rich second generation who partied hard. ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ N()velFire.net
As for Yang Fenghuang, she was clutching her head, looking dumbfounded.
Chen Pingsheng let them have their fun; he didn't come to disturb them deliberately.
Jiang Peiyao didn't dare to continue partying wildly. She followed behind him and sat down obediently.
Chen Pingsheng still didn't like such places; even chatting was difficult.
He was past the age of enjoying bars.
Once he left, everyone else was basically ready to leave too.
He was planning to find a quieter pub to hang out where it wasn't too noisy, and one could chat quietly.
As soon as they came out, a man chased after them to hand over a business card.
The business card, naturally, was not for him, but for his little cousin Jiang Peiyao behind him.
"Beauty, this is our boss's business card. He'd like to invite you to stay and have a drink."
Jiang Peiyao kept her head down, didn't she see her brother-in-law was here?
She had already declined twice in the bar, how could he still chase her out here?
Chen Pingsheng took the business card, and it turned out the man was from the same industry, also working in new energy.
"Has your boss's Ranger Automobile been produced yet?" Chen Pingsheng rudely threw the business card back at him.
The man felt awkward; he didn't recognize Chen Pingsheng. His boss simply thought Jiang Peiyao was pretty and wanted to invite her for a drink.
In the bar, few girls could refuse his boss.
When he turned to go back in, upstairs, the boss was exactly Wei Li from Ranger New Energy.
Speaking of Ranger Automobile is quite peculiar,
In 2014, using an advanced concept and a sleek PowerPoint presentation, the founder successfully raised 3 million yuan and put together a team of less than a hundred people to start their car manufacturing journey.
They started building vehicles over two years earlier than Chen Pingsheng.
This venture also initiated new energy vehicle PowerPoint presentations in the country, with a slogan louder than anyone else's.
Their goal was to be the Tesla of China.
All kinds of sleek concept cars also kept emerging, existing only in PowerPoint presentations.
Apart from not being able to mass-produce, they were unbeatable on PowerPoint.
In just a few years, they raised nearly ten billion yuan.
Vehicle production was difficult, but it didn't hinder the founder from making a name for himself in the business community.
Unfortunately, he met Chen Pingsheng, someone who actually spent hundreds of billions on manufacturing cars, unlike his PowerPoint car production.
There was naturally no need to be courteous.
Chen Pingsheng and the others found another quiet, top-notch pub.
This time, it wasn't a bikini-clad girl dancing provocatively on stage, but a short-haired pretty young woman who sang quite well.
Looking at her age, she was probably just over twenty, with a guitarist and a drummer beside her.
Ordering a few beers and calling a couple of old friends to such a place was what their age group should do.
The innocent little cousin poured him a drink earnestly, "Brother-in-law, I'm going to get you drunk!"
"With your drinking capacity, forget it!"
Chen Pingsheng used to drink a lot when he was younger, but not much after he got married.
Jiang Peiyao huffed, "Don't look down on me, brother-in-law. I can now drink two and a half bottles of beer and two liang of liquor."
Chen Pingsheng flicked her on the forehead, "Drinking isn't something to be proud of."
The flick was light and didn't really hurt, but Jiang Peiyao covered her forehead, grinning and grimacing.
"Old Chen, what's the deal with that Ranger thing?" Chang Fu wasn't too familiar with the new energy sector and was just curious.
Chen Pingsheng said, "The country is now strongly supporting the new energy sector, right? In the past two years, the number of new energy vehicle manufacturers that have popped up in our country has exceeded three or four hundred. When you add up all the global automotive giants, there are only 25, which shows how exaggerated this data is.
"The business environment here is just like that, always following trends. As soon as something becomes popular, a large group immediately jumps on the bandwagon. Sadly, most people don't really have the capability to build cars. Introducing car manufacturing ideas is just a way to seek better financing or simply for subsidy fraud."
There are all sorts of people.
Anyway, in this industry, every day, one or two big companies come out with ideas for car manufacturing. It's nothing unusual anymore.
"So it's already this competitive before it's even started?"
Chen Pingsheng stated, "Don't worry, time is the best weapon. Those companies that exist only on PowerPoint are bound to be eliminated. In the next five or ten years, the domestic market will at most accommodate three or four new energy vehicle factories."
That means that roughly 99 percent will be eliminated.
Chang Fu found this unbelievable, considering that this business could easily involve investments of tens of billions.
So much money thrown into what might ultimately fizzle out, the cruelty of the market is imaginable!
