"Our family has long since passed the stage of primitive accumulation; what you need now is to be steady and solid, not to take risks or be aggressive."

"And being able to help the industry progress while earning money is the best thing possible. You've done well," Zhang Ran said affirmatively.

In the process of development, many companies have profit as their sole goal; as for the future of the industry?

Most companies do not consider it.

Zhang Ran is very clear on this point; even now, countless companies are overdrawing the industry's future to make money.

Originally, Zhang Ran had planned to wait until Sicheng had truly grown up in a few years before teaching him these things; only after experiencing more can one have a profound realization about certain words.

But he did not expect that Sicheng would have already thought of these things and done them at this time. Zhang Ran was truly very satisfied.

Upon hearing this, Sicheng smiled somewhat embarrassedly, "Well, Dad, I actually didn't think that much. The future of the industry and such are too far away from me; I can't understand it, and I can't see that far."

Sicheng felt a bit awkward saying this. At first, he was very happy to hear his father's praise, but he really didn't seem to have thought about what his father was saying.

Zhang Ran was also stunned for a moment. Could it be that he had praised him for the wrong reason?

"Cough, cough, cough." Siyan started coughing, her face turning bright red—not from choking, but from holding back laughter.

"Don't hold it in; if you want to laugh, then laugh," Zhang Ran said with annoyance the moment he saw her like that.

"Hahahaha." Siyan couldn't help but burst into loud laughter.

She knew what her father meant and understood his good intentions; after all, she had experienced such things herself.

But Sicheng really didn't give him any face at all.

Huo Zhiyuan also couldn't help but smile, though she had experienced more, so she was able to hold it in.

Sicheng became even more embarrassed and took a cautious look at his dad.

Zhang Ran sighed helplessly and said, "Then tell me, what were you thinking?"

Zhang Ran was a bit confused; if that wasn't what you were thinking, how did you end up doing it that way?

Just doing it blindly?

That doesn't seem quite right, does it?

Sicheng said honestly, "I was just thinking about my past days. I used to work hard every day, and I never dared to slack off for a moment."

"And I actually had many good creative ideas, many good thoughts, but they were all rejected because of various issues."

"Later on, I didn't even dare to mention these ideas. For those of us who love games, that is really painful."

"So now that I've become the boss, I don't want my employees to be like that. That is the reason why I did it."

The reason why Sicheng did this was very simple: because he now had the ability, he wanted to prevent others from being like him, having their passion for games worn down by trivial and complex workplace rules.

In Sicheng's view, what game production needs most is precisely this passion; with it, one can make games well.

After listening, Zhang Ran was silent for a moment. He hadn't expected Sicheng's thinking to be so simple.

Sicheng carefully looked at his father and then said, "Actually, the main thing is that I know our family isn't short on money; otherwise, I probably wouldn't have done it this way."

In front of his father, he was still very honest, saying whatever was on his mind.

Because Sicheng also understood that he was still far, far behind his father, and explaining things clearly would be beneficial for his father's guidance.

"Regardless of the reason, the fact that you were able to do this is actually very good, just like what I have always told Siyan."

"Cosmetics and such can make money, and they can earn huge profits, but you must never use fake or inferior products to harm people, because we wouldn't feel at ease spending that kind of money," Zhang Ran said.

Zhang Ran first praised them, but then immediately added, "Your thoughts and actions are all very good, but in the future, you need to think more when doing things. Think big; don't be afraid of making mistakes. Our family's foundation is enough for you to make many mistakes, as long as you can gain something from them."

"Dad, we understand," Sicheng and Siyan said simultaneously.

After finishing his lecture to his son and daughter, Zhang Ran changed the subject and asked, "Are there any other matters recently?"

"There is also the matter of Youjia Grain and Oil; I already told you about this before," Sicheng said.

"I know, you did that very well," Zhang Ran said. He stopped analyzing; it was just that Sicheng's thinking didn't always align with his own.

"By the way, Dad, I'm planning to hire two tutors during this period," Liu Lu suddenly said.

Zhang Ran was stunned, then looked with some sympathy at the two little ones who were still looking confused.

During this time, Zhang Xiaotao and Susu had been playing wildly; although they completed their homework and attended online classes on time under Liu Lu's supervision, their learning efficiency was truly poor.

Now that they had finally returned and the school was on break, Liu Lu naturally wanted to have them study properly for a period of time.

"You can make the decision on this yourself. Just hand the tutors' information to Dayong when the time comes," Zhang Ran did not intend to express an opinion on this matter, to avoid the two little ones complaining about him later.

Moreover, Zhang Ran also believed that Liu Lu's approach was correct; the two little ones really needed to catch up on their studies, otherwise, it wouldn't be good if they really fell behind.

"I know," Liu Lu said.

Handing the information to He Yong was also a necessary step. Now Liu Lu also understood the situation of their family and needed to guard against those with ulterior motives.

After eating, the family watched television in the living room, while Huo Zhiyuan went back to rest.

Her home would be cleaned regularly by someone, so it didn't need to be cleaned again.

Around nine o'clock in the evening, Zhang Ran couldn't stand the pitiful looks from the two little ones and went straight back to sleep.

Liu Lu didn't intend to waste a single second; starting from today, the two little ones needed to begin studying hard.

As for being tired from the flight?

Children have plenty of energy; after eating and resting for a little while, they become full of vitality!

Zhang Xiaotao looked at his mother's expressionless face and shrank his neck a little.

"Mom, can I sleep with you today? I've missed you," Susu looked at her mother with longing eyes.

How could Siyan not understand her little thoughts? Missed her?

Give me a break, they had been together the whole time, and during this period, Susu had also been sleeping with her.

Besides, this was her sister-in-law helping to discipline the children; if she felt sorry for them and spoke up, then her sister-in-law probably wouldn't feel comfortable continuing to help discipline them in the future.

So Siyan acted as if she hadn't heard and walked away on her own, saying as she walked, "I'm really old and tired; I'm going back to sleep."
