"Nan Nan will be less lonely if she has a brother or sister in the future," Wang Manman's words were just a tentative probe.

Sun Dasheng caught the implication and laughed, "Although Nan Nan isn't my biological daughter, I treat her the same as my own, and she's so attached to me.

Let's find some time to change her name on the household registration to match mine."

Hearing Sun Dasheng's words, Wang Manman burst into tears.

After becoming pregnant, her greatest worry was her daughter from a previous marriage, fearing she might become an outsider in this family and that her young heart could be hurt.

Now, Sun Dasheng's words acted as a reassurance, accepting her daughter completely, even suggesting changing her surname, making them a true family in every sense.

"Thank you, Brother Sun!" Wang Manman rubbed her head against his embrace.

Pregnant women are prone to emotional fluctuations, and Sun Dasheng patted her head and advised, "Don't cry, be careful about the baby inside."

Wang Manman obediently wiped her tears and smiled happily, "I'm not crying, I'm just really happy."

Then she leaned forward and undid Sun Dasheng's belt.

"Mm." Sun Dasheng squinted his eyes, enjoying her tender service.

.....

Time quietly slipped into January 2025.

Unknowingly, another year had passed.

Last year, I was still a lowly worker, facing unemployment and divorce.

This year, I have transformed into an investment mogul and a playboy in the field of romance.

Having money indeed makes it too easy to fall into indulgence.

Sun Dasheng admitted that he was already lost in his gentle land and couldn't extricate himself.

A day without women felt unbearable.

This was a disease that needed a cure.

So he moved out of the villas full of women and returned to the place where his dream started, the spacious home in Courtyard No.1, wanting to experience a bit of solitude.

The room was kept very clean; although it had been unoccupied for quite some time, the property management regularly came to clean, so Sun Dasheng moved in with just his bag.

The january earnings from the system had arrived: experience points of 1 million.

Withdrawable funds: 72 billion.

Along with the remaining company funds of 42.9 billion, the company's cash flow exceeded 100 billion, reaching an astounding 114.9 billion.

Currently, Rebus is the cash king of the Capital, and maybe I can be the cash king of Shanghai City, right?

Of course, that's only on the surface. There are many who are richer than me in secret, Sun Dasheng was aware of this and did not become arrogant or overestimate himself.

In this country, money can certainly make you superior, but Sun Dasheng has clearly hit a ceiling. With him at this level, the increasing number of money does little to further elevate his status.

Even with so much money, the system still has not unlocked the next level.

He is uncertain what conditions need to be met to unlock the next level.

Previously, it was unlocked after the number of supporting characters reached ten.

Could it be that unlocking the next level also involves these supporting characters? But what is the key point?

He was unclear, and the system provided no explanation.

This system was just a cold program, with no intelligence, incapable of conversational interaction.

It's a good thing, but also a hassle.

He stopped thinking about it; anyway, with so much money now, whether or not the system upgraded had little meaning to him. Living well and enjoying life was enough.

With billions in hand, Sun Dasheng continued with his plans.

Continued to heavily invest in declining industries, but this time he focused on industries that others had 'abandoned', which were long-running losses in manufacturing.

Such as recycling and reusing waste materials; processing of toxic and harmful substances;

The current trend is to use as many industrial robots as possible to replace humans.

He went against this, trying to use as many manual workers as possible.

Not because his ideological awareness is particularly high, but because by providing as many job opportunities as possible, and his company supporting more people, his position would be more stable, as no one would dare to easily target him.

Those who have the power to target him will weigh the pros and cons, calculating whether it is worth it to target him, whether they can handle the situation afterward.

Concerning the livelihood of a million canal workers, no one would be foolish enough to target him, right?

Instructions for acquisitions were laid down, and Wang Hai of the investment department immediately took it upon himself with great vigor.

He originally thought that after large-scale acquisitions in the past few months, the company would quiet down for a while, digesting the acquired companies properly.

Unexpectedly, a mogul is indeed a mogul, with no intention of stopping, readily announcing acquisition plans worth billions, and Wang Hai was passionately eager for action.

Keno Capital's high-profile acquisition initiative alerted the Shanghai Municipal Government.

They discreetly came over for a look and, after understanding the detailed situation, the government officials offered commendations and even penned an inscription personally.

The treasured calligraphy was hung by Sun Dasheng in his office.

Anyone who enters can see it at a glance; it served as a protective charm for him.

With the government's tacit approval, Keno Capital went all out, acquiring numerous liabilities that were burdens on the Shanghai Municipal Government, which were operating at losses annually.

It greatly alleviated the government's burden.

As a result, the acquisition activities received unanimous praise from both the upper and lower levels of the government, with open 'green lights' and extremely smooth and swift acquisition processes.

In just one month, Keno Capital acquired assets worth 50 billion.

From logistics companies worth billions to food enterprises barely exceeding a billion, all were brought under their umbrella.

The first matter after acquisition was to raise salaries.

Employees enthusiastically shouted: "The new company is awesome!"

The second matter was to abolish the 996 schedule, implementing the national provision for a five-day work week with eight-hour workdays.

Employees were immediately overjoyed: "The company is like a home to me!"

The third matter was providing employees with five types of insurance and a housing fund, along with rental subsidies.

Employees exclaimed: "Foster father in heaven, we give our respects!"

Of course, this is somewhat exaggerated, but that was the emotion.

At a time when work pressure is increasingly high, this caused quite a stir on the internet.

People couldn't help but feel envy, jealousy, and hatred.

Many asked how they could join these companies, with countless wanting to switch jobs.

There were also those who were sour about it.

They claimed that such companies would definitely go bankrupt within a year.

Those who said these were probably executives or owners of those 996 companies.

They were long accustomed to treating employees like workhorses, and now a company suddenly comes out and tells the working class: you shouldn't have to endure this, you deserve better treatment.

How can this be allowed?

Isn't this encouraging the peasants to rebel?

Is there no law anymore?

This is truly reversing the heavens.

Amidst the online discussions, Sun Dasheng was vacationing in Qingdao.

Qingdao, other than having somewhat exploitative prices, is quite nice, particularly its excellent environment.

Although both it and Sanya, Hainan are coastal cities, the two possess entirely different cultural and natural scenery.

Qingdao aunties are a unique delight.

Indeed, Qingdao auntie Huang Bo was leading Sun Dasheng to play by the seaside.

As for how he got acquainted with Huang Bo? That's a long story.

To make it short, lately, Huang Bo encountered a slight bottleneck in his film career. Pure comedy films were increasingly failing; he wanted to make a breakthrough and transition.

Therefore, he and Star Point Media hit it off instantly, with Star Point Media investing in his film company, both sides commencing cooperation to shoot a sci-fi blockbuster.

It's crucial to know that film companies willing to shoot and produce sci-fi movies in the country aren't everywhere, but rather scarce.

Especially those genuinely investing huge sums in special effects for pure sci-fi films.

Many saw the success of "Flowing Earth", making a fortune, and began exploiting the sci-fi banner as a money-making ploy.

Those are simply not sci-fi at all.

The last time Huang Bo collaborated with his old partner Ning Hao, the "Crazy Alien" movie did well at the box office, but he didn't like it much, as it was just a comedy wearing a sci-fi guise.

He no longer wanted to make comedy films.

However, his resources were limited for other types of movies.

Thus, he found instant agreement with Star Point Media.

A collaboration was formed.

"How about drinking beer and eating seafood? Isn't it comfortable?"

On a beach food stall, Huang Bo was wearing sunglasses, introducing Qingdao's cuisine.

"It's indeed nice, but why is the beer served like this here?"

Sun Dasheng puzzledly held up a plastic bag of beer.

Huang Bo grinned, showing his teeth: "Here, beer is always served like this. Tradition! Tradition!"
