Protagonist:

Shen Yao

Shen Yao didn't yet know her parents had already arranged things for her to practice on.

Right now she was burning the midnight oil studying hard in her own room.

But she wasn't stupid, and with the hired tutors and the school both being genuinely capable, given her current pace, getting into a key university in Jing Shi was hardly surprising.

As for the school and major Shen Yao would apply for, naturally it was the Management Department, which sounded very impressive.

Anyway, she had come to two beauty salons, which happened to pair well with the items from her space to build up a reputation.

One plan after another was gradually perfected, especially since Shen Yao had experience and asked for advice humbly; Shen Jinshan and Huo Lan couldn't just watch their own daughter suffer losses.

June

Bearing the summer heat, Shen Yao entered the exam hall and spent two days completing this college entrance exam.

After the college entrance exam, Shen Yao didn't linger; she said a word to Huo Lan, then directly flew to the neighboring country in the name of studying.

Foreign monks know how to chant scriptures; the plastic surgery techniques in the neighboring country had become quite well-known in recent years, and since Shen Yao ran beauty salons, it was perfectly normal for her to go take a look.

Besides, Shen Yao had other thoughts; there were quite a few things stored in her space, but many of them didn't involve modern medicine. She planned to use the two beauty salons in Jing Shi to practice, and when the time came, combining both sides, she could make a tidy sum.

Money in the entertainment industry was indeed easy to earn, but without connections, rushing in would get her head bashed open and blood flowing.

Shen Yao didn't want losses brought on by her own rash decisions; even though she indeed wasn't short of money, and could even take famous antique items to the bank for mortgage loans, that didn't mean she liked being a sucker.

"Still need to survey the market; if it's not bad, then spend money to poach people over." There was no wall corner that couldn't be dug, as long as the person herself had enough money.

Sitting on the plane flying to the neighboring country, Shen Yao rested with her eyes closed while chatting idly with the system.

The system had previously accidentally caused a bug, which was very bad for Shen Yao.

After handling it for several months, the system finally managed to successfully plug the loophole; naturally, it could now jump out and take it easy, while also acting cute for its host, to quickly turn the page on this error that should originally have been counted against it.

"Host, aren't you going to enter the entertainment industry?" What she was doing now had something to do with the entertainment industry, after all, those idol stars all had anxiety about their looks.

"Yeah, there are so many ways to enter the entertainment industry; no need to be a pawn myself."

Shen Yao didn't want to participate in any selection show, nor did she want to act in any TV drama; wasn't it better to spend money to poach people over? As long as what she sold earned enough money, she was the capital.

Wasn't capital harvesting better than being a pawn and earning hardship fees? Shen Yao wasn't someone who hadn't done this kind of thing; when she was in the Chaebol World, she had made her fortune relying on screenwriting.

"Host, since you have plans, the system wishes you success," it didn't persuade her otherwise.

Perhaps it also meant it couldn't persuade her; the system was getting better at being human, and the stiffness originally belonging to artificial intelligence was gradually fading.

No wonder some film and TV dramas always wrote about artificial intelligence ruling the world in the future world.

Once intelligent artificial intelligence produced a human form, it would be a huge crisis.

A few hours later, the plane landed safely; Shen Yao picked up her bag, got off the plane, and went out, just in time to see the person who came to pick her up waiting outside.

It was the guide she had hired in advance with money, a part-time job just to earn some pocket money.

"Miss Shen"

"I am Shen Yao, we can leave."

Shen Yao smiled reservedly, followed the other person, and while at it, pried out more detailed information from them.

The other person's surname was Tao, named Tao Tao, an international student who came over because she wanted to earn more money.

Shen Yao getting to know the other person was a matter of lucky coincidence, but she also simply inquired through others; it was just an ordinary guide, not enough to screw her over.

First they went to a hotel, handled check-in and luggage, then followed Shen Yao and Tao Tao to tour the capital of the neighboring country.

Hmm, there wasn't much to see; some places even looked inferior to domestic second- and third-tier cities. It was just that the painted cake was rounder, and they bullied certain netizens who had never been out, directly profiting from an information gap.

"Miss Shen, we'll stop here for today; I'll come at nine tomorrow to wait for you."

Tao Tao stretched out her hand to wipe away sweat drops; although tired, the feeling of earning money wasn't bad.

Moreover, this young girl with a tender face before her was a genuine tycoon; she came out for a trip, and the money from the part-time job was at least enough for half a month's living expenses.

"Alright, take care, see you tomorrow."

Shen Yao waved her hand; after seeing the other person off, she turned around and returned to her room.

The room looked very beautiful, and this hotel was among the top tier here; those staying were basically various dignitaries and celebrities.

However, Shen Yao came here in a private capacity, not representing Shen Jinshan, so for now she was just a nobody; no one here cared about her at all.

"Quite good; after touring today, we can determine the target tomorrow," then whether spending money to poach people or poach technology would be clearly decided.

Shen Yao didn't like sitting around waiting to die, and besides, her current situation wasn't suitable for making a grand entrance; the two beauty salons in Jing Shi could at most be considered a stepping stone, their function being to help her hook out the big fish hiding behind.

The system hurriedly pulled up a map for the host; it didn't even need Shen Yao to open her mouth, it had already done this part of its duty steadily and reliably.

Shen Yao:...

Shen Yao couldn't help but laugh out loud with a puff; previously she had been making a fuss about not following the rules, but now in the face of problems, everything could be negotiated.

"Host, you take a look, but I suggest you'd better choose a compatriot."

A compatriot going back would still be easy to persuade; if it were a foreigner, one would also have to consider them throwing down the burden and leaving.

Shen Yao had a calm face: "Before I went out, I had already asked Mom to help re-close and renovate those two beauty salons, and since the beauty salons have a foundation, when the time comes hiring people to return and open smoothly won't be a worry."

As for whether they were compatriots, it wasn't a point Shen Yao considered; Shen Yao only cared whether their technical ability was up to standard, that was the foundation for standing firm.

In the first few days in the neighboring country, Shen Yao kept following Tao Tao out to wander around.

Tao Tao, as a tour guide, diligently did her job earning the money she deserved.

As for Shen Yao, she first enjoyed herself; when it was about time, she let Tao Tao leave, then turned around to discuss business with the person she had taken a fancy to.

Anyway, she was just poaching people; technology could be bought with money, and I'm not the core technology (the spirit grass in the space is Shen Yao's secret weapon), the cost was limited.

Within half a month of wrangling, the several physicians Shen Yao had taken a fancy to all agreed to jump ship.

Shen Yao: ……

"It's not that I didn't notice; as long as you want to poach talent, there's always a chance to acquire them."

Although it cost a considerable sum in terms of salary, thinking about the money she could earn back later, Shen Yao suddenly felt all of this was very worthwhile.

Touching her chin with satisfaction, Shen Yao played in Bang Guo for another half month; only after the college entrance exam results came out and she filled out her volunteer applications did she leisurely take a plane back to the country.

When she returned, the weather was still hot; Huo Lan did not come to pick her up this time, it was the family's driver, who, after pulling her back home, did not forget to explain that Huo Lan had something urgent come up temporarily and was not intentionally absent.

Shen Yao didn't mind; she wasn't a child anymore, at this age she wouldn't cry and look for her parents to pick her up.

It was just that after getting home, she still had to call Huo Lan, briefly talk about what she had done, and then lie on the bed and sleep for half a day.

When she opened her eyes again, the sky had already darkened.

The two younger ones are currently attending cram school, still studying there as students, unable to find deliverance.

Shen Jinshan went outside for a meeting and wouldn't be back today; Huo Lan stayed at the company to work overtime, and while at it, didn't forget to actively expand store openings outside.

Previously Shen Yao had suspected that Huo Lan's beauty salon wasn't large in scale, but upon detailed calculation, its assets were astonishing.

Later she learned that Huo Lan opened beauty salons not by renting storefronts, but by directly buying land to open stores.

Shen Yao: ……No wonder her net worth is so expensive.

However, this also had a benefit; no matter how Shen Yao tossed around the beauty salons in Jing Shi, it wouldn't hurt her too badly, after all, her capital was close to none.

……

"Is this your business plan?" Huo Lan ate the fruit in her hand, and spread out in front of her was the proposal Shen Yao had written.

Shen Yao nodded, "Yes, originally I planned to just go in and test the waters, but the money was only enough for a small-budget web drama," and she currently didn't have relevant resources, so she still needed to wait and save up some funds.

As for the script? Browsing the internet, looking at recently popular viral videos, and then checking novels that rank high on websites—it was easy as pie.

Shen Yao didn't plan to spend money hiring people; she herself had talent in that area, so she'd save money first.

It was absolutely not because she was too poor; Shen Yao felt a bit indignant in her heart.

Huo Lan saw the situation and supported Shen Yao with another one million; not much, but it could definitely alleviate some things.

Shen Yao smiled and thanked her birth mother for reaching out, saying she was about to fly to Jing Shi, that the beauty salons there were almost all handled, and it was time to reopen for business.

"Go, contact us in time if anything comes up, your dad and I are still here."

They wouldn't not care, even if Shen Yao's capability wasn't enough and she really squandered the family business they gave her.

Shen Yao raised her eyebrow, making Huo Lan hope she'd do well; as an experienced Tasker, her business had never failed.

……

In August, Shen Yao went to Jing Shi a month in advance, and while at it, laid out plans for her business that was about to take off.

The people she had poached earlier had already arrived in Jing Shi, staying at the hotel Shen Yao had booked.

Shen Yao herself moved into the residential community Huo Lan and Shen Jinshan had bought for her.

Whether it was the location or the building, they both looked average.

Because housing prices in Jing Shi were in a rising phase, and Shen Jinshan's business wasn't in Jing Shi, there were several small villas in other districts, but Shen Yao, considering school and work, simply chose to live here.

Finding some free time, she visited the renovated beauty salon and walked around; the layout inside had been redone, all matched according to Shen Yao's taste.

You have to know that in the Chaebol World, Shen Yao made a fortune in the beauty industry.

This time, although she didn't enter with great momentum, being able to get a share of the pie, she wouldn't refuse.

Her phone rang, it was a research institute she had an appointment with.

Shen Yao planned to take the things in her space for appraisal and apply for a patent while at it, to prevent later when she opened for business, others would find a loophole and cause her losses.

"Mm, okay, I'll be there right away."

After agreeing on a time with the other party, Shen Yao called a taxi and gave an address.

Why else would coming to Jing Shi where she knew no one make everything inconvenient?

Shen Yao pouted her lips, deciding not to refuse the car her birth father temporarily lived in.

Although the price of that car was very cheap, she was currently starting a business and wasn't a very confident person.

She comforted herself in her heart, not afraid, not afraid; after enduring it, everything would come naturally in the end, why worry about any problems? She couldn't really slink back home to wait for marriage.

Sitting in the taxi, Shen Yao occasionally looked at the scenery outside.

Jing Shi developed rapidly day by day; otherwise, it wouldn't attract so many people to settle here.

"Arrived."

The driver parked, put away the money, and left in a hurry.

Shen Yao looked up at the tall, gilded characters not far away, and carrying her bag, she went in.

Appraisal cost money; Shen Yao had the materials ready in her hand, and paid the fee according to normal standards, just wait for notification after a week.

Besides this, Shen Yao didn't forget to visit the nearby shops, and while at it, take a look at the currently popular celebrities; she definitely couldn't afford to hire them, but she could hire some internet influencers and paid posters to create momentum.

Her beauty salon used genuine materials, and applied to the face would show immediate results; such advertising, even if money was spent, would be earned back quickly.

Having settled on one, two, three plans in her heart, Shen Yao started running to government departments with the materials.

She didn't forget her main job; finding internet influencers and paid posters didn't need her to worry about, but the film and television company she founded needed her to pay for it.

Shen Yao divided the matters into two, arranging manpower to each go do their part.

After all these were finished, the shell company named Planet Film and Television completed the procedures and officially opened for business with good luck.

Erm, it was just that there wasn't much to do, because Shen Yao, the boss of this Grass-Top Team, currently focused her energy on the beauty salon matters.

The reputation built by the two beauty salons was naturally imported goods.

Although people with money liked to fly abroad to do it, there were also some relatively lazy ones in the country.

Shen Yao was targeting these people, and while at it, she didn't forget to use the exclusive formula she had applied for a patent for.

"Host, normal usage should be less, the effect won't last too long."

The system felt that since the Host wanted to build a reputation, the effect definitely had to be outstanding; how could she be stingy and not want to put it out?

"Just don't want them to last too long," too long and who would still come over for maintenance.

Beauty is a Qing Shui Chang Liu business; once it can cure like Medicine after eating, that's not making big money.

The most liked Pattern is hanging a Carrot in Front to dangle.

Shen Yao's current approach is similar to dangling a Carrot; anyway, as long as the effect is good, those Circle people who value face, who wouldn't like it.

As for looking down on low class? As long as there's effect, everything else is negotiable.

After all the face won't lie, rely on what to eat, they know clearly in their own hearts.

After saying two Sentences with the system, Shen Yao began to put in Kung Fu to hype herself.

Anyway not caring about black or red, as long as there's attention there will be Heat, even black negative news will be automatically whitewashed as effective results constantly spread.

Shen Yao Thinks she gains no matter what she does, so she strikes especially ruthlessly, even inviting several review bloggers with millions of fans who claim impartiality to visit the Store; Surface however it may be, behind the scenes it's all the same.
