Chapter 1037: Chapter 776: The Beginning of Number 1

After two days, Chen Pingsheng went back.

Only An’an, Erya, and the others stayed in Xiangjiang, and Su Xiaoxi didn’t stay here long before returning to Peng City.

She lived in a seaside villa in Peng City, and Mrs. Su often came over to take care of her.

Plus, there were four or five maids in the villa, so her safety and health were not affected at all.

When Chen Lu drove back, he went to get a hose and washed the car in the yard himself.

It wasn’t that he was diligent, he just liked to do small things in life.

Just like when he was in middle school, he liked being ordinary and was willing to be ordinary.

The one who understood him best in the family was probably Su Xiaoxi.

At least that’s what Chen Lu thought because he didn’t go to Xiangjiang for the gathering, and in the evening, Er Piya called to scold him.

The gist was that he should work harder.

“Chen Lu, why are you washing the car yourself?”

“I have nothing to do, I’m just wiping off the dust.”

“Your second sister almost got into a fight with someone because of you a few days ago.”

“She would fight with someone?”

Chen Lu knew too well what temperament his second sister had, “Is there anyone who dares to argue with her, usually it’s only her scolding others.”

“Hmm… Liu Wentai said a couple of things about you, and your second sister scolded him.”

“That’s typical of Er Piya. It’s not that she’s trying to protect anyone, it’s just that she doesn’t allow outsiders to talk about our family.”

Chen Lu said, “Once you have this child, Er Piya definitely won’t allow anyone to bully her, how do you find Xiangjiang when you went there?”

“It was pretty good, both my eldest and second sister facilitated several major collaborations over there, they’ll definitely make a killing again.”

“Making a killing might be an exaggeration, even if they earn tens or hundreds of billions in one deal, they won’t feel much.”

Chen Lu put down the car wash towel and said, “My dad’s money, even my mom has long lost count of exactly how much there is, and my two sisters have only ever regarded making money as a game since they were little, money is just a number to them.”

“And you, do you really want to keep living like this, taking ten million every month as living expenses?”

“There’s nothing wrong with taking it easy. Though my mom has been grooming me as an heir since I was little, you know, I really don’t have the capability!”

To be the head of a colossal tech group with hundreds of thousands of employees and a trillion-dollar market value.

The capabilities required for this, honestly speaking, cannot be sustained by someone groomed from a young age.

The CEO should be the best of the best, fairly selected from millions.

And to know, anyone who can get into such a group and have a million annual salary.

They’re academic stars from the start.

Even an academic star has to struggle for decades to climb to a high position gradually.

The entry threshold demands a top 985 graduate.

Why should Chen Lu be the CEO of such a group?

If it’s merely because he’s the only son of his father, that would be unfair to the entire group.

His father might have the capability, but he really doesn’t.

Perhaps the smartest thing he did was to voluntarily give up the right of inheritance of the group.

And he managed to convince his mother too.

Su Xiaoxi can understand Chen Lu, only when you truly own such a group can you feel the pressure involved.

Everyone below you, with no less education and abilities than you.

If you want to convince everyone, take over most of the management, and gain employee approval.

To achieve this, only Chen Lu’s father has done it so far.

Even though he’s been away from the group for ten years, the group still worships him like a god.

And firmly implements his thoughts and strategies.

Earning the recognition like his father’s requires relentless effort over a decade, with very high standards of self-discipline.

Also, it demands forward-thinking, keen market judgment, and political maintenance abilities.

It can be said any one of these is indispensable.

What makes Chen Lu fit to inherit such a group?

Only someone like Liu Wentai would act rashly, making most decisions by slapping his thigh.

And arbitrarily implementing a one-man rule in the group, firing anyone who didn’t listen to him.

It’s understandable to squander eighty percent of the family fortune within a few years.

Chen Lu is of course connected with these people, it is also because he has seen too many examples of failed second-generation rich, that he firmly believes not inheriting the family group is the greatest contribution.

As for trying to surpass his father, such a thought should not exist.

Chen Lu’s yard is large, usually with four or five cars parked there, Su Xiaoxi can’t drive sports cars because she is pregnant.

For daily travel, she still takes a Tengfei MVP new energy minivan from her family, now new energy vehicle technology is very advanced.

At full charge, the range can reach five thousand kilometers.

Of course, this is a figure that can only be achieved with the top-configured solid-state battery, while the new energy safety problem that was criticized before.

Had been completely solved by 2030, now over eighty percent of the cars on the road are new energy vehicles.

China has become the largest sales market for new energy vehicles globally, Chen Lu himself still prefers to drive gasoline cars when he goes out.

Traditional gasoline cars have their unique charm, complete replacement is impossible.

The overseas market still has the dominance of the gasoline car market.

In addition to liking washing cars at home, Chen Lu also likes cooking for himself, if he didn’t do these small things in life, he wouldn’t feel the beauty of the mundane world.
