Reaching the age of thirty, my income randomly doubled
Chapter 975 - 726: Driver Chen Attends the Banquet_2

While changing clothes, Su Zi was still very elegant, a typical image of a strong woman.

Large chest and curvy hips, with a slim waist.

As the boss's driver, Chen Pingsheng certainly possessed the necessary decorum.

That meant never initiating conversations, and definitely not making inappropriate remarks.

Su Zi quite liked this aspect of him, perhaps because she used his office time. After simply finishing her makeup in the back, Su Zi asked Chen Pingsheng:

"Has your son finished school?"

"Hmm... I picked him up a little after five, and I even made him dinner. He should already be at home doing his homework now."

"How is his academic performance?"

"It's alright, he shouldn't have much trouble getting into a decent high school. As for university, he might go abroad, or he might stay in the country."

A year abroad wouldn't cost less than a million, and that's just the basic expenses.

Su Zi had casually asked a personal question and now felt a bit curious because she had studied abroad herself.

"In comparison to domestic universities, foreign universities have much more advanced educational philosophies. If the family can afford it, sending a child abroad is best."

Although these words might be discouraging, and easily criticized by clueless people online as moral coercion,

it was an undeniable fact.

You don't need to look far. Just look at where the children of the wealthy and upper class go to university, and you'll know.

Frankly speaking, as long as the family has the means, they send their children abroad.

Especially in developed cities and regions.

The more underdeveloped an area is, the more patriotic they are. In more developed places, they try their best to send their children abroad.

This strange phenomenon can only be understood from one's perspective.

Su Zi was merely giving advice based on her own experience. She understood too well where domestic education lags behind.

And also clearly knew, to advance future technology, going abroad was essential, at least to master English completely.

Because in those big companies, research teams and projects,

many are marked in English, and translated versions pale in comparison.

Chen Pingsheng naturally understood this as well.

Otherwise, he wouldn't be taking his family to stay abroad for months from a young age.

To talk about the level of technological advancement, truthfully speaking, it is necessary to learn from others' strengths.

"My son is still young, university is still years away. Ultimately, it depends on his own choices."

Chen Pingsheng took the initiative to end the topic, and the rest of the journey continued in silence.

Su Zi wore a high-end, sexy dress that portrayed the image of a strong career woman with her own unique beauty.

She exposed a bit of cleavage, and when getting out of the car, she let Chen Pingsheng wait upstairs.

At the cocktail party upstairs, there was a buffet, so he could help himself to whatever he wanted.

Chen Pingsheng hadn't attended such business cocktail parties in many years.

The meetings he attended were either in Beijing or the Seven Chief Global Industry Conference in Xiangjiang.

The investments he handled started from several billions.

It was not in the same league as these small cocktail parties. Su Zi's purpose here was to secure five hundred million in Series A funding.

The angel round had already been invested by herself.

If she couldn't find some partners to share the risk and collectively resist competition from future giants,

her current project would drag her company into ruins.

She didn't have the capability to enjoy all the profits of the project independently.

Su Zi invited a few people, all small investors from Shenzhen.

Given her current conditions, it's hard for her to even meet with Chu Qiuyan, including several big investors under her.

Let alone invite a bigwig like Zhang Wanyi.

Commercial cocktail parties aren't for dining, Chen Pingsheng was an exception.

Due to his years of low profile, he seldom participated in public speeches or commercial gatherings.

There weren't many people in Shenzhen who knew him, outside of that circle, most had only heard of him.

Realistically, projects presented to him weren't small projects.

At least it had to be three to five billion and above.

The Seven Chief's overseas projects were also at least ten billion-level, and most required everyone to pool together capital and share the risk.

Tong Zelan didn't stop her short-selling fund due to one or two failures.

Similarly, after the domestic internet market became saturated, Shen Nanpeng and others didn't shrink their investment scope.

They just shifted from the internet to the AI field.

Investors bring not only money but also many external business resources.

These are the most important.

Needless to say, if Sun Zhengyi hadn't invested in Alibaba, but someone else as his angel investor,

Alibaba likely wouldn't have developed to its current level.

This is the influence of investors' external business resources. Tengying Group invested in many projects as well.

The highest success rate is in traditional sectors and entertainment projects.

Chen Pingsheng focused on eating because he had a decent image, quite like a big boss.

Many women, very elegant and somewhat pretentious, came to greet him.

"Sir, do you like these macaron desserts too?"

"They're alright, just having a bite because I'm hungry."

"I prefer the chocolate mousse next door."

Women trying to strike up a conversation with you don't need you to find a topic; they will find ways to dig for information.

Chen Pingsheng was quite familiar with these women, beneath their pretty exterior lay extreme materialism.
