Zhou Chen once visited the welfare home after taking the college entrance examination.

At that time, the welfare home was already in decline, and its financial expenditure was obviously insufficient. Government subsidies and donations from the public were no longer enough to support the welfare home.

In the end, Xie Yajing sold her house and donated the money to the welfare home, which allowed the welfare home to survive.

After Zhou Chen learned about this situation, he borrowed 100,000 yuan from his parents and gave it to Xie Yajing.

Because Xie Yajing's words at that time really touched him.

She said that she had lived her entire life for the children in the orphanage. If the orphanage was gone, she didn't know what she would do in the future. These children were her motivation to live, so she wanted to stay here.

Zhou Chen naturally couldn't bear to disappoint the first person who cared about him, so he borrowed money to help the welfare home.

Xie Yajing was reluctant to accept it at first, but was finally persuaded by Zhou Chen.

Later, Zhou Chen made his own money, especially after he made a lot of money, he donated some of it to the welfare home.

Only after Xie Yajing learned that Zhou Chen really had a promising future did she accept this kindness.

With Zhou Chen's donation, the welfare home has been able to survive. There are now more than 30 children in the welfare home, of which more than a dozen are disabled or have problems. These children are a huge burden to the welfare home and are also the main reason for the welfare home's huge expenses.

"Aunt Dean, you said you had something to tell me about me. What is it?"

Zhou Chen asked curiously. Xie Yajing had called him before and told him that there was something important and asked him to come over.

Xie Yajing asked: "Xiaochen, do you remember that you had a sister when you were in the welfare home?"

"I don't quite remember. What happened? Did she come looking for me?"

Of course Zhou Chen knew his identity, but Andy should not have returned to China at this time, right?

"No, a while ago, a man who seemed to be very important came to the welfare home and asked us about your sister's whereabouts."

Zhou Chen frowned and asked, "Do I really have a sister?"

Xie Yajing nodded: "Yes, that was not long after I took over the orphanage. You were sent to the orphanage with your sister, but later she was adopted by a foreigner. I didn't tell you because I was afraid you would be sad. Now you have grown up, there are some things you should know."

"I suspect that the man who came to see your sister might be related to you and your sister, or even a relative of yours."

Zhou Chen has forgotten a lot about the plot of Ode to Joy, especially the situation at Andy's home. He can't remember it at all. He only remembers that their father seems to have not passed away. As for more, he is not very clear.

But he didn't care about it. Instead, he said to Xie Yajing, "Aunt Dean, if possible, I hope you don't tell anyone about me. No matter what happened in the past, since you left me in the orphanage, it's like abandoning me. I'm living a good life now. I don't want to have any contact with the past, and I don't want to make my current parents worry and sad."

"Good boy."

Xie Yajing patted Zhou Chen's hand and said, "I understand your thoughts. Don't worry, I haven't told anyone about your situation. Mr. Zhou and Teacher Sun are both good people. They have trained you to be so outstanding. You must be filial to them in the future."

"I will. To me, they are my real parents in this world."

Zhou Chen's expression was very serious. He might investigate the original body's life experience in the future, but even if he knew everything, he would not change his mind.

In his heart, Zhou Guofu and Sun Yi are his parents in this world, and forget about others.

"Aunt Director, is the welfare home okay now?"

When talking about the welfare home, Xie Yajing's face was filled with smiles.

"Very good, your method is very good. Let the older children do handicrafts. Not only can they earn money to supplement the orphanage, but they can also have something to do. With the addition of government subsidies and donations from the society, the orphanage can still be maintained."

It is difficult for a welfare home to survive in this day and age relying solely on subsidies and charitable donations, so in addition to donating money, Zhou Chen also invested in a small factory in Daishan that specializes in handicrafts.

There are some older children in the welfare home who are unable to survive in society due to physical or various reasons, so Zhou Chen assigns the manual work to them.

This allows them to make money and support themselves, and also allows them to feel less empty and have the courage to live, killing two birds with one stone.

Now it seems to be effective.

Chapter 404 Eight Years Later, Guan Juer and Qiu Yingying

After staying in the welfare home for one night, Zhou Chen left the next day and prepared to go home for the New Year.

"Yes, I did, Aunt Director, please accept it. I can make money now, and this money is a token of my love. If you are reluctant to spend it, then use it on the welfare home."

"Okay, okay, I get it. That'll count as my donation. I'll come back to see you next time."

Zhou Chen put down the phone helplessly. He knew that the dean's aunt would call him.

Because before he left, he left a check for one million in the dean's office. The reason he didn't give it to Xie Yajing in person was because he knew that Xie Yajing would never accept it.

Now he was acting first and asking for permission later. Even if she disagreed, she had no choice but to accept it.

"Whether you have money or not, go home for the New Year. Hey, go home for the New Year..."

Zhou Chen was humming a song while driving leisurely towards Ningbo City.

…………

Zhou Chen used the money he earned from the financial crisis to start various investments. In addition to finance, his first project was in the mobile phone industry.

I entered the industry in 08 and first acquired a mobile phone manufacturer. I started with low- and mid-end mobile phones and gradually developed into high-end mobile phones.

Early mobile phones did not require investment in scientific research, but Zhou Chen still set up his own scientific research department and began to study the internal parts of mobile phones that could not be developed independently in China.

In addition to the mobile phone industry, Zhou Chen also entered the Internet industry, such as Weibo, games, etc.

When the mobile phone company was developing well, we started to research short video apps.

In order to ensure a stable income from his business, he returned to his old business and began to enter the pharmaceutical industry, researching new drugs for marketing.

Time flies by us like a galloping horse.

In the blink of an eye, eight years have passed.

Zhou Chen stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window in the office, looking at the high-rise buildings outside the window with deep eyes.

I don’t know if it’s due to the power of the system, but after he became an adult, his appearance gradually became like that in the real world.

And after years of training, his physical fitness has fully recovered and even improved.

Shuttle card x 3!

Mission: Not triggered!

Unfortunately, he has been in this world for twenty years, but the system task has never been triggered successfully, even though he has been to the Ode to Joy community several times.

After closing the system panel, Zhou Chen began to think about the company's future development.

After years of development, the Chenxing Group under his command has become a giant industry in Shanghai. The group is involved in multiple industries and has become a leader in several of them.

In the business circle of Shanghai, I'm sure everyone knows the name of Chenxing Group.

"According to time, the live broadcast industry will be very popular in the future. Should we get in on it?"

After thinking about it, Zhou Chen shook his head and gave up. The live streaming industry is indeed an emerging industry and has great development prospects, but with the current status of Chenxing Group, it no longer needs live streaming to build its reputation.

Moreover, the live broadcast industry has a limited cake, and the money-making ability of various industries under his group is much faster than that of the live broadcast industry.

The live streaming industry is a mixed bag, and he doesn't want to spend much energy running it, because the current industries such as mobile phones and short videos already require him to take care of enough.

"If you count the time, the plot of Ode to Joy is about to begin."

Zhou Chen calculated based on his age that this year should be the year when the plot of the TV series will unfold, but he is not sure exactly which month it will begin.

Beautiful piano music suddenly rang out, Zhou Chen turned around and walked to the desk and picked up the mobile phone on the table.

"Hey, Mom, okay, I got it, I'll be right there."

The person who called was his mother, Sun Yi.

Speaking of his parents, they have lived in Shanghai for four years. His mother Sun Yi came here less than a year after her retirement, and his father also used his connections to transfer to a university in Shanghai to teach, and it will be not long before he retires.

Ode to Joy's house was delivered five years ago, and his parents moved in four years ago.

Originally, he wanted his parents to move to his villa, but they refused to do so and insisted on living in the Ode to Joy community. He had no choice but to agree to let them move in.

Zhou Chen was helpless as he didn't want to hire a nanny or a part-time worker for them, but seeing that his parents were capable, he didn't force it.

Zhou Chen pressed the phone: "Secretary Jiang, come in for a moment."

"Yes."

Soon, a young woman in a professional women's suit walked in. She was Zhou Chen's secretary, Jiang Yuyan, who had been Zhou Chen's secretary for four years.

"Zhou Dong."

Zhou Chen said: "Please inform President Qin and President Qian to come to the conference room for a meeting at 3 pm."

"Yes, I will go and notify you now."

"What are my plans for the evening?"

"Mr. Chen from CCB wants to invite you to dinner, and Mr. Han from Han Group also invites you to dinner."

Zhou Chen raised his eyebrows. Ms. Han from Han Corporation was a very charming woman. After meeting him at a party before, she began to pursue him fiercely.

But he had no interest in President Han, who was born into a wealthy family, and even less interest in marriage, so he was too lazy to pay attention to her.

With his current status, there is no telling how many women are trying their best to get close to him, and there are countless women with status and position. But it's okay to just play around with them, but if you want to develop further, it hasn't happened yet.

"Just push it off and say I have something to do tonight."

"Okay, Mr. Jay, I'll go do my work first."

"Go."

After sitting in the office for a while, at six o'clock, Zhou Chen got up and left the office.

All the way from the office to the front door on the first floor, everyone who saw him called him "Jay" "Jay" respectfully.

After all, this building belongs to Chenxing Group. All the people working here are his employees. No one dares to be disrespectful when seeing him, the big boss.

As soon as he walked out of the company gate, a bright black Mercedes-Benz was parked at the door. A young man in a neat suit was standing in front of the car. When he saw Zhou Chen coming, he immediately opened the door.

"boss."

After Zhou Chen got in the car, the driver trotted to the driver's seat.

"Six sons, go to Ode to Joy."

"Okay, boss."

The young man is called Yang Yang, nicknamed Liuzi. He is Zhou Chen’s full-time driver. Like him, he came from the Daishan County Welfare Home.

Because he was an orphan and had a hard time in society, he was recruited by him a few years ago to be his driver.

Three years have passed in a blink of an eye. Since they both came from the same orphanage, they are loyal to Zhou Chen.

There is quite a distance from Chenxing Building to Ode to Joy community, and with the traffic jam on the road, it took forty minutes to arrive at Ode to Joy.

The Ode to Joy community was delivered five years ago. It has a good location and convenient transportation. It is a nice mid-range community in Shanghai.

Zhou Chen’s parents bought apartment 19, Building 2103, in the Ode to Joy community.

A few months ago, 2201 and 2203 upstairs were being renovated at the same time. The Zhou couple who lived downstairs were fed up with it and finally had to move into Zhou Chen’s villa and live there for a while.

However, more than a month ago, the property manager Xiao Zheng called and said that the two houses had been renovated, so the old couple couldn't wait to move back from the villa.
