Chapter 353: One Hundred Million in One Minute
Family! I am dying of laughter.
She only brought 30 million and was one minute late on purpose, haha, hoohahahaha!
Given Cheng Zhu's current situation, he definitely needs financing.
But he doesn't need this mere 30 million.
If 30 million is enough, can't I and my future brother-in-law just pool the money together?
How fucking lucky you are to get on this aircraft carrier of mine?
During this period, Cheng Zhu had no plan to open a Yuzu tea branch in Hangzhou because it was unnecessary and meaningless.
Everyone knows that he will open branches in other districts of Hangzhou, and they will be popular once they are opened. He does not need to prove this to the [venture capital circle].
How much financing he can get in the first round has little to do with how many stores he has now.
This money doesn't belong to you once you get it.
His project can tell an exciting story to investors, and he has money in his own pocket, so how could he lack confidence?
After taking this money, we will do something big together. Our plan is not just for one city, but for the whole country, and we will subvert the traditional milk tea industry!
The amount of money he will spend on opening branches and supply chain in the future will be extremely terrifying, and tens of millions will not be enough.
Therefore, his goal for the first round of financing will not be less than that of Heytea in his previous life.
What's more, the first round of financing obtained by Heytea is a financing of over 100 million yuan from a big boss, which is different in nature and can cause a sensation in the venture capital circle.
And you, Wen Hua, or rather, the Tiancheng you represent, to be honest, are not even a little bit inferior in level.
For Cheng Zhu, he wants more than just money.
For him, he does need to burn other people's money, but there is more behind it!
Tiancheng cannot give you at least half of these things.
“If Tiancheng had participated in the first round of financing for Youcha, then many of my subsequent operational methods would have been difficult to implement and operate.” Cheng Zhu was very clear about this.
Even if Tiancheng really wants to participate in the first round of financing, then Tiancheng Capital cannot be the only one participating in the first round of financing.
And Tiancheng has to pay extra money!
Wen Hua looked at Cheng Zhu at this moment, feeling confused and uncertain.
At first, she thought Cheng Zhu was secretly pointing out that she was late today and secretly expressing his opinion that she didn't take him seriously enough.
But after hearing the last number, she felt a little confused again.
No, you are asking for too much.
How can you talk about price like this?
I said 30 million, and you just told me to add another 100 million.
Wen Hua put down the teacup in his hand and forced a smile on his face.
Personally, she is very optimistic about the pomelo tea project.
She also felt that women had advantages when discussing matters with men, not to mention that she was a fairly pretty woman.
Therefore, she said with a bright smile and a teasing tone: "Mr. Cheng, you are really a joker. I was one minute late and you raised the amount by 100 million. You can't raise it by 200 million if I was two minutes late, right?"
After saying this, she was about to express that she and Tiancheng actually attached great importance to Youcha and Mr. Cheng, but she was made even more confused by Cheng Zhu's answer.
"Yes," he said.
Wen Hua even suspected that he was hallucinating.
No, did you understand my joke?
She glanced at Cheng Zhu's expression and found that he was extremely serious and determined!
Naturally, Yucha and Tiancheng's first encounter ended in a bad mood.
After Wen Hua got into his white BMW, the expression on his face began to show, and he no longer hid any emotions.
“Are today’s young people crazy?”
"If I'm late for one minute on purpose, you'll add 100 million. If I'm late for two minutes, you'll add 200 million, right?"
"Mad man, a complete mad man, is there something wrong with his brain?"
She was indeed optimistic about this project and the future of Youcha, but she never felt that Cheng Zhu was a big shot now.
Considering his age and status, calling him Mr. Cheng is considered very polite and respectful.
In her opinion, this kind of life experience is something that college students can brag about in their dormitories or even in class.
——"You know Tiancheng Capital, the vice president met with me today and called me Mr. Cheng!"
Wen Hua didn't quite understand the logic behind this.
"This process is obviously intended to obtain financing."
"The business model of his pomelo tea is different from that of traditional milk tea franchise stores. This is inevitable."
She combined what Cheng Zhu did today and said, "But is this how you want to get financing?"
"Or does he really think that the Yuzu Tea project is worthy of super high financing?"
Please, if we really raise 30 million for you in the first round, it would be a lot.
Look at those milk tea shops. The franchise fee for one store is only a few dollars. How many stores are there in total of 30 million?
If a newly established milk tea brand like yours really earns over 100 million in the first round, it will directly shock the entire [venture capital circle] of Hangzhou. No, it will shock the [venture capital circle] of the whole country!
On the way back to the company, Wen Hua also received a call from the MD (Managing Director) of Tiancheng Capital.
The managing director of Tiancheng Capital is named Chen Bohan, a native of Hangzhou and quite famous in Hangzhou's venture capital circle.
As an MD (Managing Director), he has transcended the so-called AV club and belongs to another level of existence.
"Wendy, how was the conversation going?" He called out Wen Hua's English name.
For venture capitalists, an English name is indeed necessary.
To be precise, many of the top venture capital companies in China are international investment institutions that entered the Chinese market relatively early.
While driving, Wen Hua repeated his experience of the day.
Chen Bohan on the other end of the phone was silenced by her.
He was also confused.
What he couldn't understand the most was: being late for one minute would add 100 million, being late for two minutes would add 200 million.
What is this, a child sulking?
But they did conduct an investigation and found that Cheng Zhu was definitely a very capable young man.
Even the initial claw machine store [Youlaiwan] had actually come into the sight of Hangzhou's investment circle.
Later, everyone felt that this project was a matter of whether to invest or not, and the founder simply sold it and stopped playing with it, so it was even less valuable.
"Wendy, how about this? You go back to the company first and we'll have a small meeting." Chen Bohan thought for a while and said on the phone.
"Okay." Wen Hua replied.
Along the way, she drove faster than usual.
She felt that Cheng Zhu had absolutely no understanding of our investment circle.
It is generally recognized that the investment circle is a "very small circle".
To be precise, most circles that are closely linked to "connections" are very small.
In fact, the investment circle deals not only with personal connections, but also with information.
People working in this circle really need information!
Therefore, it would be strange if the circle could be big.
If there is something big going on, it will soon become known to everyone.
She will hold a meeting like this at the company today, and explain the situation to Chen Bohan and the superior partners. The news will spread the next day.
"When the time comes, I'll see what you're going to do." Wen Hua stepped on the accelerator hard.
In Starlight City, Cheng Zhu sat in the reception room and put out the cigarette in his hand.
"The investment circle is a very small circle." He was calling Shen Minglang, who had just flown to Yunnan Province to connect with suppliers.
Shen Minglang was a little dumbfounded when he heard this: "Cousin, how dare you speak so arrogantly?"
He just put himself into the situation and felt really good about it.
——You must be sweating, woman!
For Mr. Shen, although he did not have 30 million in his pocket, he had been from a wealthy family since he was a child, so he felt that the other party was showing off by bringing 30 million with him, which was a bit pretentious.
But Cheng Zhu just said that the investment circle is a very small circle, and he immediately thought that it would be bad if these pretentious words were to spread out.
"It doesn't matter." Cheng Zhu smiled.
"If a real boss really wants to cooperate with me, he will definitely be able to reach the number I mentioned."
"They are all top people in the industry, and they can understand what I said to Wen Hua."
"This way, we can avoid having some random people come to our door all the time."
“If a venture capital firm of this level only comes with tens of millions, there really is nothing to talk about.”
"Don't worry. As long as someone of high enough status comes to me, we don't need to talk for too long. Just a few minutes is enough and I am absolutely sure that he will pay the money willingly." Cheng Zhu said calmly.
Shen Minglang couldn't help but complain: "Cousin, when you talk to me, please tone down your temper! We are one family, there's no need!"
Listen to what he's saying? In just a few minutes, I can get someone to happily pay at least 100 million!
Damn, I can’t get that much money even if I kneel down and talk to my dad for a few minutes!
You can’t even knock and chat at the same time!
At the end of the call, Shen Minglang, as a partner, said, "Cousin, I'll wait and see!"
"Don't worry, it's a small matter." Cheng Zhu said.
Time passed quickly, and two days went by.
Yue Lingjing, who was in the student dormitory of the University of Science and Technology, received a call from her uncle in Shanghai.
"Jingjing, I will come to Hangzhou tomorrow. Do you want to have dinner with me?" my uncle said on the phone.
"Sure." Yue Lingjing, who had a classical and well-behaved temperament, replied softly.
"Then my uncle will treat you to a meal. Please do my uncle a favor and contact your schoolmate named Cheng Zhu and ask him to meet me." said the man.
Upon hearing Cheng Zhu's name, Yue Lingjing's cheeks flushed slightly, and she tightened her right hand holding the phone.
It’s all Senior Sister Hu Yan’s fault. Whenever she thinks of Cheng Zhu now, what comes to her mind is not Cheng Zhu’s face, but the naked man in Hu Yan’s comics.
"Uncle, are you interested in Cheng Zhu's milk tea shop?" she asked.
"Yes, didn't you say before that your alumnus asked you to tell me to pay attention to his new project? Let me tell you, your alumnus has become quite famous in our investment circle these days." The man said with a smile.
Yue Lingjing was definitely willing to help, but she didn't know how to tell Cheng Zhu. She was afraid that as a middleman, she would delay the work of her uncle and Cheng Zhu.
The man smiled and said on the phone: "Just tell him that I want to meet him, and then tell him my name, and there is no need to say anything else."
"Now that he knows the name, he can look it up on Baidu himself." The [Partner] of Magic City Principal Capital said calmly.
(ps: Second update, asking for monthly votes to fight for today's single-day monthly vote champion! Let's see if I can win the championship consecutively.
Also, Lin Lu [character] is about to reach first-class star, everyone remember to like the character, and give rewards to [character] first, both of which can increase star value.)
