Reaching the age of thirty, my income randomly doubled

At the end of June.

Fei Yangyang had opened five more locations within the second ring.

These were investments previously made, and after three months of renovation, they were now officially open for business.

It's worth mentioning that from now on, Fei Yangyang would open at least five to eight stores every month.

After nearly half a year of adjustment, Gao Hu finally got a clear handle on chain management.

This was a great learning experience.

After all, Tengsheng Fruit had already opened more than one hundred stores without any major issues.

This is mainly because each store had three or four dedicated on-site shareholders.

Although Fei Yangyang had canceled the dividend shares, they offered very high year-end bonuses.

For any traditional store to stabilize, besides headquarters operations, the key was the stability of the employees inside.

A store with twenty people had three or four acting as the core management layer, which meant each manager was responsible for six people.

This actually made it quite easy to manage.

In addition, Fei Yangyang's salaries were far above the industry average, employee satisfaction was high, and the headquarters' promotions were effective too.

It is foreseeable that Fei Yangyang's speed of opening new stores would only accelerate in the future.

Its positioning was completely different from that of Water Cloud Space.

Water Cloud Space only targeted the high-end market, and in Capital City, they could only open 25 to 30 stores.

Fei Yangyang targeted the demographic with the most consumers, providing affordable dining that was still high in quality and low in price.

In a super first-tier city, they could open one hundred to one hundred fifty stores.

After the lively and bustling full-month celebration at home, the couple dived back into work.

Song Yanxi drove her LaFerrari supercar directly to the now-renovated Water Cloud Space Beauty Academy.

They had invested nearly fifty million here and spent three months to complete the overhaul.

Transforming from the somewhat dilapidated old middle school to the now completely revamped Water Cloud Space Beauty Academy.

It was really an indescribable feeling.

"Sister-in-law, during your pregnancy, brother was personally responsible for here. Now that Xinyi is a full month old, you can focus on this fully again."

Water Cloud Space had always been her responsibility, only during her pregnancy did it fall on her husband's shoulders.

Compared to a few months ago, the changes here were earth-shattering.

One could tell just from this vigorous academy.

The moment Song Yanxi stepped out of the car, her true goddess-like aura was unmistakably apparent.

Dressed in a fitted white shirt paired with black trousers, she was both a career goddess and a domineering female CEO.

"These times have truly been hard on your brother."

After expressing her sentiments, Song Yanxi entered the beauty academy she owned with Chen Qi.

"Mr. Song."

"Mr. Song has arrived."

"I heard her child just turned a month old, and she's already back at work."

The beauty academy had already brought over all three hundred beauticians previously trained at the small headquarters.

Song Yanxi first visited the employee dormitory building as there was still a need to recruit about a thousand high school graduates for training.

The dormitory rooms were six bunk beds each.

The interior decoration was quite nice; every room had air conditioning installed, and the walls were painted in warm colors.

Two five-story dorm buildings barely accommodated a thousand female students.

As for the instructional building, besides the existing twenty-eight classrooms, they also fitted out a large conference room and a president's office.

And departments such as finance and training as well as various other major Water Cloud Space headquarter offices.

This place was both a standalone academy and the Water Cloud Space headquarters in Capital City.

Song Yanxi went to her own office to take a look and was quite satisfied.

The office wasn't large, but it was filled with some of her favorite plants and flowers, clearly her husband had taken personal charge of it.

"Little Qi, notify Zhou Chun and the others to come for the meeting,"

Currently, only five outlets are operational, and by October, there are plans to open nine more Water Cloud Space outlets simultaneously.

There's an overwhelming amount of work here, I wonder how her husband managed so much on his own before.

Zhou Chun was the earliest store manager recruited by Chen Qi and was among the first to grow with Water Cloud Space.

In less than a year, she had already paid in full for two properties in Capital City and a Maserati president.

This indeed made the other store managers envious.

The store managers who joined later didn't receive as high a share of the profits; when she joined, she received a 20% profit share.

As Water Cloud Space rapidly expanded, the share of profits given to store managers subsequently became 8%.

No one objected, but rather felt it was only fair.

Once the business of Water Cloud Space picked up, the annual profit per store could easily exceed thirty million yuan.

This means, with that 8%, a store manager could earn at least 2.5 million yuan a year.

Who could complain when the headquarters wasn't requiring them to invest their own money?

It was entirely a benefit provided by the headquarters.

If you add the standard annual salary of three hundred thousand to eight hundred thousand yuan for a store manager, managing a Water Cloud Space well would make them part of the absolutely high-income group.

The type that outclasses 99.99% of the working population.

Comparable to senior executives in large corporations.

Who then has the time to envy others? Focusing intently on handling their own responsibilities is the key.

"Mr. Song,"

The four new store managers were all quite young; in their late twenties, they had started learning beauty care very early.

They had also undergone training with everyone at the previous villa for about half a year, so in terms of demeanor, they were completely different from when they first arrived.

Song Yanxi warmly invited them to sit down, "Due to my pregnancy, I wasn't able to visit earlier. Now that my child is born, I finally have the chance to see everyone. I've called you here to ask about some specific matters concerning Water Cloud Space, especially since the new four stores have already been operating for two months."

Zhou Chun was the first to stand and report, "Here in Shijingshan, thanks to the two major events we organized previously,

we have a very stable customer base and are mainly in the process of consuming membership cards,

but there's also a steady influx of new customers."

"Mr. Chen always emphasized doorstep service, which has received very positive feedback from customers, and more are opting for this service."

"Indeed, Mr. Chen is quite visionary; he recognized the fragmented nature of customers' time and promoted doorstep service vigorously in the stores. As a result, we've quickly garnished a large number of upscale customers through various referrals,"

"Mr. Chen has also launched professional point coffee services, professional violin performances, and other high-end tailored services in the stores."

"Currently, in terms of customer reputation, we're definitely leading by far. The beauticians who underwent six months of training before starting work have clearly demonstrated superior comprehensive capabilities compared to our competitors."

Song Yanxi chuckled lightly, setting down her teacup with pride, "My husband would never engage in meaningless activities. If he spent over ten million yuan to train beauticians, he had his reasons. Since he places such importance on doorstep services, we will certainly excel in it."

After a pause, Song Yanxi added, "Besides these, he mentioned something to me yesterday. The store we invested ninety million yuan in is expected to officially open in October. There will be no major events in all stores before December. At the end of December, on New Year's Day,"

"Water Cloud Space will host an even grander event, a Splendid Night that surpasses all other local New Year's Eve celebrations."

"Splendid Night?"

Zhou Chun and the other store managers were clearly puzzled; it was their first time hearing of a beauty salon hosting a New Year's Eve party.

"Exactly,"

Song Yanxi said, "This event will be a huge investment by my husband, not limited to top domestic stars. We are currently in contact with global sensation Mr. Bird, as well as Professor Do and Jun Ji-hyun from 'My Love from the Star', and we might even invite a Hollywood superstar. Locally, Yang Mi will definitely be there, and we're also contacting past goddess Zhou Huimin, Andy Lau, and Aaron Kwok.

Of the Four Great Singers, at least two will attend."

"Overall, our groundwork for this event aims for a turnover of between five and eight billion yuan."

The boss's ambition was escalating.

This wasn't a year-end party that any ordinary beauty salon could host; this was a lineup that even CCTV could barely assemble.

With so many superstars on the stage, determining who gets the center spot and who performs last could be a big issue.

However, the excitement was real.

They were actually going to host a massively scaled super-star-studded New Year's Eve party.

No wonder it's called Splendid Night.

With such a powerful lineup, wouldn't it be a splendid era?
