Reaching the age of thirty, my income randomly doubled-Chapter 770 - 577: Shocked Expression
Chapter 770: Chapter 577: Shocked Expression
“Shocking, I actually have a day when I can afford a house in Magic City!”
“Definitely shocking, but let me weakly ask, do you qualify to buy a house? Have you worked at Tengying for more than three years?”
“…No!”
Such a merciless statement crushed the hopes of countless people.
The internet exploded, as if everyone had joined this frenzy.
First question: Can you afford it? Second question: Do you qualify?
These hard requirements are insurmountable. No matter how much they want to buy, they can only gaze wistfully at that 12,000 square meter price.
But say what you may, laugh as you will, Tengying Group’s news over the years hasn’t been scarce. Altogether, despite ups and downs, it has consistently ranked as a top employer for its workforce.
This has led countless netizens to start digging deeper, including the student body of a certain university.
They even held several panel discussions to evaluate how Tengying’s housing distribution has positively impacted society, including today’s job market.
Just as their founder said, “Capital has never been the original sin. The guilty ones are those bosses who achieve success and fame, yet hoard the corporation’s final accomplishments for themselves.”
Regardless of their charity to outsiders, when it comes to their employees, the way they’re treated often borders between petty calculation and outright exploitation.

A company isn’t the boss’s alone; it’s the work of a collective.
When it’s small and fragile, it demands countless sleepless nights from both employees and bosses alike.
Through their efforts, it grows from weakness to strength, and once it becomes strong, the company’s responsibilities should extend to shielding those same employees who have devoted their youth and energy to it.
It shouldn’t just result in the boss splurging on keeping a few small-time celebrities, or flaunting fake acts of charity.
One could say Tengying Group was the pioneer of this philosophy, offering not just high salaries and excellent benefits after achieving success.
It also provided a haven for safeguarding the employees’ future lives.
Countless people online are now calling for more bosses like this.
More of these conscientious companies should exist. Even though their boss lives extravagantly, aside from a few ridiculous trolls whining online about why their boss drives a Rolls-Royce…
The rest of the sensible population hardly utters a word of protest.
“Even if you start flying planes, people wouldn’t feel a speck of jealousy,” someone remarked.
The news spread like a hurricane, sweeping across the internet and even major marketplaces.
On some level, it also signified an invisible shift in government attitudes toward private enterprises and entrepreneurs.
It might even suggest deliberate encouragement of such behavior. After all, the idea of “those who prosper first leading the way for others” isn’t a joke; it demands countless conscientious companies and socially responsible entrepreneurs to truly accomplish it.
This isn’t just one person’s burden; it’s society’s collective duty.
While people may not rush to buy Tengying’s housing, they eagerly began finding and searching for Tengying Group’s affiliated companies instead.
What they didn’t know before searching turned into disbelief after searching.
Tengying is merely the umbrella name for its vast ecosystem, encompassing industries like entertainment, short videos, mini-series, dining, milk tea, fruits, supermarkets, snacks, and more.
All of them are publicly listed companies under its banner.
Beyond that, there’s Tengfei New Energy, renowned as a highly reputable tech industry entity, along with eight global research centers.
It even boasts the largest domestic Lithium Iron Phosphate battery factory, which alone employs over 100,000 elite R&D staff, including world-class engineers.
Every year, it allocates over 3 billion yuan towards project development grants for top-tier national research universities, and it has established the Dream Fund in Guangdong to support youth entrepreneurship.
In addition, it undertook a massive rural initiative, founding Tengnong Breeding—the largest domestic agricultural welfare enterprise, bar none.
It has helped over a million rural households achieve stable incomes, often exceeding what urban households earn.
Most importantly, it launched an ambitious rural revitalization scheme, forging partnerships with local governments in three provinces and channeling investments and projects into countless rural families.
Until they deliberately searched for relevant information online, nobody truly grasped the scope of this enterprise.
In fact, many parents from rural areas were already aware of Tengnong’s positive impact, though unfortunately, rural folks seldom went online or expressed their gratitude for Tengnong’s contributions.
Indeed, Tengnong has genuinely ensured that tens of thousands of elderly villagers no longer worry about sustenance in their later years.
“I’m crying—I only found out about its goodness today.”
“Our family’s known about it for ages. I even mentioned it online before, but their boss is just too low-key and doesn’t actively promote it.”
“To be doing good deeds for so many years without publicizing them—I seriously want to cry!”
“There’s such a shortage of conscientious companies. No matter what, if this kind of business goes bankrupt, every one of us here will bear some responsibility.”
“Absolutely right. If companies like this can’t survive, then our generation carries the blame.”
“From now on, I’ll only use products from Tengying Group’s industries.”
“Starting with me—I’ll exclusively drink their milk tea in the future.”
“I’ll only watch their movies.”
“Then I’ll only drink their coffee…”
Suddenly, the tables turned as a wave of revenge spending swept in, sending Tengying Group’s assorted enterprises into explosive revenue growth.
Its stock prices began surging as well.
Even Fei Yangyang, long buried at the bottom of investor portfolios, rose resiliently in this wave.
The stock’s surge was defiant. After all, its employees had extremely high incomes, and it wasn’t as though it lacked customers.
For a business like this to go bankrupt merely because of generous employee salaries begs the question: Who would dare provide high wages for workers in the future?
Among the customers rushing to purchase, even something simple like fried rice was priced higher, as if ensuring the company wouldn’t fail.
Truthfully speaking, Fei Yangyang wasn’t losing money—it merely had lower profit margins, not actual losses.
Add to that a supportive parent company, and Chen Pingsheng would never let it fall into bankruptcy. Even if Fei Yangyang were to suffer annual losses of 200 million yuan, it would continue operating under his watch.
For the sake of its 60,000 grassroots employees, many of whom had spent more than five years at Fei Yangyang…
Countless staff members found their partners, got married, had children, and built lives there.
To its 60,000-person workforce, Fei Yangyang wasn’t just a company—it was a home to build lives upon.
For those thousands of families, Chen Pingsheng would never shut it down.
This explains how Fei Yangyang’s stock could remain so undervalued, while its employees faced zero disturbances.
They genuinely happened upon an extraordinary boss. Even after Gao Hu led so many people to leave, nothing changed.
Chen Pingsheng has never deviated from his original principle for running enterprises—from initially striving to earn profits to now striving to provide everyone with a sanctuary to live and thrive.
Through this gradual evolution, he’s traversed eight long years.
He might not claim to contribute “to the order of heaven and earth,” but ensuring a livelihood for those within his enterprises has been an unequivocal priority.
And it was something he could achieve within his capacity, which for him, made all the difference.
