Chapter 189 100 billion investment return, two years of planning in advance (asking for monthly tickets)

Until the end of lunch, Chen Yansen still couldn't figure out Zhang Yiming's idea.

At this time, Zhang Yiming felt more and more that there was definitely great potential in combining mobile browsers with search engine algorithms.

Chen Yansen burst out laughing and finally didn't bother to persuade him anymore.

After a short break, the economic and trade cooperation process began. Some offline factories took the initiative to approach Wang Shubin of Shangtongda and signed agency operation contracts.

Song Yuncheng also signed several business entry contracts. After all, the factory owners who could come to this exchange meeting were naturally not small in scale.

Thanks to Pinbei’s outstanding performance on Double 12, Song Yuncheng had no trouble as half of the customers came to him on their own initiative.

Gao Weilin was also surrounded by many entrepreneurs seeking financing. After a round of meetings, he had a thick stack of business plans in his hands.

Chen Yansen raised his hand to check the time. He felt that the air in the conference room was too stuffy, so he pulled Wang Zihao out to get some fresh air.

After a while, Cheng Weixing from Pancheng Technology came over and synchronized the time and place of the evening party with Chen Yansen.

Seeing that he was smart and good at dealing with people, Chen Yansen chatted with him for a while since he had nothing to do anyway.

"I am a graduate of the Department of Civil Engineering at Zhejiang University. I founded the magazine Ke Chuang in my sophomore year, and founded Pancheng Technology in my junior year. Although Magic School helped me earn tens of millions, the new games I launched in the past two years have not made any splashes."

Cheng Weixing introduced himself. Although he belittled himself, the impression he gave to Chen Yansen and Wang Zihao was mostly positive.

If not compared with Chen Yansen, Cheng Weixing's resume is simply a perfect template for the male protagonist in a novel.

He was worth tens of millions before he even graduated from college.

Frankly speaking, Lei Yijun, who is the same age as him, definitely doesn't have that much money in his pocket.

Chen Yansen nodded slightly and thought to himself: The right to speak in the domestic gaming industry will gradually be concentrated in the hands of the leading giants in the future.

With the pressure from the three big companies - Penguin, NetEase and Perfect - it is very difficult for newcomers to stand out.

If Cheng Weixing can see the situation clearly and transform in time, there may be a chance for re-emergence.

Chen Yansen remained silent, commenting to himself.

"So, I borrowed the resources of PanCity Technology and planned to develop an O2O taxi-hailing software based on LBS technology. Simply put, it uses the GPS positioning system to obtain the geographical locations of passengers and taxis, allowing passengers to hail a taxi anytime and anywhere, and drivers can also reduce the idle driving rate and improve the efficiency of making money."

Cheng Weixing said with a smile.

Taxi-hailing app?

Chen Yansen was slightly startled, then asked curiously: "What is the name of Mr. Cheng's product?"

“I haven’t decided on a name yet, but I heard that Mr. Chen invested in a food delivery platform called Kuaipao. I think the two business models are very similar. Why not call it Kuaidi! The fastest taxi!”

Cheng Weixing answered casually.

Fast?

Founder of online ride-hailing service?

Chen Yansen knew that the dominant online ride-hailing company in a dozen years would be a combination of Didi, Kuaidi and Uber China, with the interests of more than a dozen investment institutions at home and abroad mixed behind it.

But who is Cheng Weixing?

Chen Yansen really had no impression. He only knew that the founder of Didi was Chen Wei and his successor was Liu Qing.

At the same time, he also understood what Cheng Weixing meant by saying these words. He just wanted to attract investment or take advantage of Senlian Capital's reputation in the industry.

Is this the fast taxi he imagined? Chen Yansen was a little confused, but he had a good impression of Cheng Weixing, so he didn't think much about it and asked with a smile: "It sounds good. Does this project lack funds?"

In fact, Cheng Weixing is not short of money. The funds he has are at least enough to expand Kuaidi Taxi to more than 5 million users.

But he knew that a brand new track would require a lot of capital to cultivate the market, which was very similar to the food delivery industry.

What he was worried about was that the follow-up funds would not be able to keep up and the capital chain would be broken.

Cheng Weixing had gone to great lengths just to get this from Chen Yansen. He said calmly, "Thank you for your support, Mr. Chen. If necessary, I can provide a more detailed business plan."

Is there a need for a plan for this thing? Just spend money to grab the market!

Chen Yansen muttered to himself, nodded slightly on the surface, and added: "Talk to Mr. Gao from Senlian Capital about this matter."

"Thank you, Mr. Chen." After receiving a positive response, Cheng Weixing expressed his gratitude again.

With the support of Senlian Capital, Kuaidi Dache will be able to quickly gain a reputation in the investment circle.

Take Kuaipao for example. Before Chen Yansen invested in it, it didn’t even have an investment consultant to pay attention to Kang Guodong and Pei Yi.

Now Penguin, DST and Sands Ventures have all expressed their investment intentions in Kuaipao.

In just two months, has the food delivery industry undergone earth-shaking changes? Cheng Weixing knew that it had not. It was just because Chen Yansen invested in Kuaipao that Penguin, DST and Sands Ventures were optimistic about Chen Yansen's decision and followed suit.

Many times, investment banking operations are like falling in love. I don’t want what others don’t want, and I want to get involved in what others are fighting for.

Chen Yansen smiled, and then learned that Cheng Weixing had even registered the trademark. He was certain that this Kuai was the taxi-hailing app that had started a subsidy war with Didi.

As for Cheng Weixing, he was probably kicked out by capital after his equity was diluted.

Even Didi's Chen Wei failed to keep his CEO position. Although Cheng Weixing looks smart and has five or six years of entrepreneurial experience, he is obviously not good enough in front of the Liu family and big capital.

Chen Yansen asked Wang Zihao to go to the conference room and call Gao Weilin.

Two minutes later, Gao Weilin walked over quickly and after listening to Cheng Weixing's introduction, he took the initiative to step forward and shake hands.

Since the investment was decided by the boss himself, he didn't need to worry too much. He just needed to complete the subsequent docking and buy the most equity with the least money.

The smile on Cheng Weixing's face never stopped. He didn't expect that things would go so smoothly.

Getting Chen Yansen's recognition is also an encouragement to him, making him firmly believe that Kuaidi Taxi is a project with good potential.

He originally wanted to use the team of Pancheng Technology to develop the Android version of Kuaidi Taxi first, but when he was about to receive financing from Senlian Capital, he immediately made up his mind to set up Kuaidi's own technical team as soon as possible and focus more on new products.

"Mr. Chen, I'll be leaving for a while. We can chat slowly in the evening. Let me show my hospitality."

Cheng Weixing apologized and left with a smile.

"Brother Sen, these people are so amazing that they can even come up with such a product. I think it has great prospects. Take the students of Xuyuan for example. When they go to the city, they can only take illegal taxis except for buses. The price is fixed and you can choose whether to take it or not. Let's wait for the launch of the product and see how these bastards dare to act so arrogantly."

Wang Zihao looked at Cheng Weixing's back and couldn't help but sigh.

"Awesome? That's not awesome! Lao Gao, what do you think?"

Chen Yansen curled his lips and said disdainfully.

"Mr. Wang, actually this kind of O2O taxi-hailing software has been available in the Beacon Country for two years. The product is called Uber. There is also a similar product in South America called Easy Taxi, which is very popular in Brazil."

Gao Weilin explained with a smile.

There are not so many geniuses in this world. They just stand at a high position, see a lot, and make a profit from the information gap.

Ma Liyun's Taobao imitated eBay; Ma Wenteng's Penguin imitated ICQ;

Youku Tudou imitated YouTube; Didi imitated Uber; Tuangou imitated Groupon;

Xiaohongshu imitated Instagram.

Even Chen Yansen’s FoxTao imitated Ebates.

The entertainment industry has its own Chinese translators, and the Internet and business circles also have their own porters.

“So that’s how it is.” Wang Zihao suddenly realized and felt that he had too little experience.

"Learn English well, watch less movies on the Internet, and research more new products from abroad."

Chen Yansen joked with a smile.

"Brother Mori, please don't slander me. I don't even know who Sora Aoi, Maria Ozawa, and Akiho Yoshizawa are."

Wang Zihao chuckled and said this on purpose.

"Zihao, you haven't watched enough movies. These three teachers are no longer popular. Hara Ai and Mizukawa Jun are the best."

Gao Weilin hugged Wang Zihao and started chatting with him as if no one was around.

Chen Yansen smiled and shook his head, then walked towards the banquet hall. It was getting late, so he could ask Song Yuncheng to leave.

After dinner, he had to rush back to Xucheng. Tomorrow was Orange Technology's new product launch conference and he couldn't miss it.

Ten minutes later.

Chen Yansen and his companions, along with Zhang Yiming, went to the tavern booked by Cheng Weixing.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

Zhang Yiming came to Hangzhou by plane. Although he had a car worth more than 200,000 yuan, he left it in Yanjing.

Along the way, the two talked about entrepreneurial projects again, and Zhang Yiming was still obsessed with his mobile browser.

"I suggest you investigate the market and competitive products before making a decision. Since you don't want to join Pinbei, do you have any idea of ​​setting up a new company through a joint venture? You can be the CEO, and Senlian can provide you with financial and network support."

Seeing this, Chen Yansen looked at Zhang Yiming seriously.

"Thank you Mr. Chen for your suggestion. I have no objection to the cooperation."

Zhang Yiming quickly agreed.

In terms of age, he is older than Chen Yansen, but in terms of achievements, he is far inferior to Chen Yansen.

With Chen Yansen's wealth and status, he can stand on equal footing with people like Ma Wenteng, Li Yanhong and Ding Lei.

If he doesn't agree, it would be a bit ungrateful.

Moreover, he had some admiration and respect for Chen Yansen, so he was naturally very proud to be valued and promoted by Chen Yansen.

When they arrived at the tavern, they were the only table in the restaurant. Cheng Weixing paid for the meal and specially entertained Chen Yansen and others.

"Mr. Chen!" After Chen Yansen showed up, several people in the room quickly stood up and took the initiative to greet him.

Cheng Ou from Jumei, Lin Qi from Youzu Interactive, and Wang Shubin from Shangtongda.

In the business circle, everyone respects strength.

Although Chen Yansen is the youngest, no one dares to look down on him.

Chen Yansen glanced at the three of them and greeted them with a smile: "Mr. Cheng, Mr. Lin, Mr. Wang, please take a seat!"

Cheng Weixing behind him turned around to get the menu.

This is a small private restaurant. It doesn't look big, but the decoration is extremely exquisite. Even the chairs under everyone's buttocks are made of rosewood.

As soon as they sat down, Cheng Weixing came over with two bottles of rice wine and a menu.

Chen Yansen took the menu, ordered a few dishes at random, and handed the menu to Lin Qi.

To put it bluntly, everyone was unfamiliar with each other, and there were more opportunities for cooperation than competition in their respective fields. Chen Yansen had no need to show off, and he simply behaved very easy-going.

Cheng Ou and Lin Qi looked at each other. They thought that Chen Yansen was young and energetic and might be difficult to communicate with.

But the other party's easy-going attitude made them understand one thing: to have such a fortune at the age of 20, one's emotional intelligence and IQ must be very high.

After three rounds of drinking, Cheng Ou asked with a smile, "Mr. Chen, do you think Jumei will have a chance to join Pinbei?"

Cheng Ou was very envious of Pinbei's traffic. Although he knew that Pinbei would steal the brand resources of its partners, he still couldn't help himself and took the initiative to ask.

"Of course there is no problem, but let me be frank. Pinbei does not boycott low-priced goods, but has zero tolerance for counterfeit goods, and the platform's penalty clauses are very severe."

Chen Yansen put down his wine glass and looked at Cheng Ou to remind him.

"Don't worry, Mr. Chen. If I find any fakes, I will compensate you tenfold."

Cheng Ou replied with a smile.

Obviously, at this time, he felt that he had strong control over suppliers and was confident that nothing would go wrong.

"Yun Cheng, leave a business card for Mr. Cheng, and you will be the contact."

Chen Yansen gave instructions to Song Yuncheng.

"Okay, Mr. Cheng, this is my business card. Just ask your company's marketing department to contact me."

Song Yuncheng took out a business card from his bag and handed it to Cheng Ou.

Cheng Ou took it politely. He had heard of Song Yuncheng's name. He was the No. 1 employee of FoxTao and Pinbei. The resources of KA brands and platform merchants were all in the hands of the other party.

Thinking of this, Cheng Ou raised his glass and wanted to toast Song Yuncheng.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Cheng. I have to drive for my boss when I get back. I'll have tea instead of wine. I wish you a happy cooperation and a long-lasting success for Jumei."

Song Yuncheng explained generously and picked up the teacup.

"Okay, I'll have to rely on Mr. Song's care in the future."

Cheng Ou didn't mind and drank the wine in one gulp.

Seeing this, Lin Qi of Youzu Interactive asked his assistant to hand a business card to Song Yuncheng.

Although his company's products are mainly online games, the development trend of mobile games cannot be underestimated.

Lin Qi naturally also had the idea of ​​developing mobile games. What a game company like theirs lacked most was the resources of mobile phone manufacturers like Orange Technology.

A game can often generate considerable profits simply by having the app pre-installed on mobile phones or being strongly promoted in the app store.

This is also the main reason why Xiaomi, Penguin, and Orange Technology can extract more than 50% commission in the operation of game joint ventures.

The second half of the meal ended with the exchange of business cards and discussions on cooperation.

Gao Weilin stayed and planned to visit Cheng Weixing's company tomorrow to get a preliminary understanding of the R&D progress of Kuaidi Taxi and prepare for the evaluation of the next investment.

Chen Yansen took Wang Zihao and Song Yuncheng into the car and drove towards Xucheng.

On the way back, Chen Yansen felt that the trip was not in vain.

He met Zhang Yiming and Cheng Weixing, and had preliminary discussions on cooperation intentions. Once these two investments are completed, they will generate at least hundreds of billions of returns for him in the future.

However, the online car-hailing industry is a bit complicated. If he wants to get the controlling rights, he must not only fight against Ali and Penguin, but also the Liu family.

"Before the 4G license is issued, mobile apps are not mainstream after all. There are still two years of preparation time, so it should be fine."

Chen Yansen pondered secretly.
