Chapter 532: Are you worthy of it?
Tiancheng Capital, inside the vice president’s office.
Wen Hua, who had a neat short haircut, felt his scalp tingling!
She even wondered if there was an investor in the country with the same name as Cheng Zhu?
But she herself is just a member of this circle and has never heard of this person.
But you have to know that not everyone is qualified to share the top pie in the current Internet industry, such as Hungry?
"But, on what basis did Cheng Zhu do this?!" Wen Hua suddenly felt filled with resentment.
Why does this college student, who was directly labeled a clown, have the right to sit at the same table with so many giants!
At this moment, the door of her office was pushed open, and Chen Bohan, the managing director of Tiancheng Capital, walked in with an extremely ugly expression.
"Have you seen Ele.me's Series F financing?" he asked directly as soon as he came in.
Wen Hua's face turned pale, his heart was bitter, and he nodded with difficulty.
"Is it Cheng Zhu, that Cheng Zhu?" She looked at her boss, her voice a little hoarse.
"I've checked from other sources, it's definitely him!" Chen Bohan's tone was extremely certain.
Wen Hua, who was wearing a female business suit, suddenly looked ashen and a little distraught.
"Why?" She moved her lips and looked up at her boss, puzzled.
But she obviously asked the wrong person, because Chen Bohan was also confused, and even muttered in his heart: "Why don't you just call Cheng Zhu and ask him? Don't you have his phone number?"
He leaned his butt against Wen Hua's desk, put his hands in, and said, "In fact, when Youcha exclusively entered Are You Hungry, I guessed that there would be a deep integration later."
"It is possible that Hungry will invest in Youzu Tea in the future."
"But, they actually let Cheng Zhu participate in the F round of financing. I don't understand why!"
As a merchant, can you acquire shares in the platform?
A heaven-defying operation! How did you do it?
Having said that, he looked at Wen Hua and let out a long sigh.
Wen Hua looked up at his boss's actions and said inwardly, "Here it comes!"
Sure enough, Chen Bohan started to criticize her again, and began to talk about how great it would be if she had the opportunity to participate in the first round of financing of Youcha.
No matter whether this is true or not, many leaders are like this anyway.
Every time Youcha's performance improved, he would rush over excitedly and criticize Wen Hua!
"We can obviously get the upper hand because we are close to the water. This is our advantage!" He has said this countless times.
"Cheng Zhu has now directly invested in the platform. You can imagine how Youcha will be treated in Ele.me in the future. He and Zhang Xuhao have become strategic partners now! The S+ project! Oh!"
After giving Wen Hua a severe lecture, he walked out of her office.
Chen Bohan: It feels good, it feels good~
But for Wen Hua, she was directly responsible for the pomelo tea project at the time, she had no one to blame and no one to blame.
I can only feel resentment and helpless rage!
Beyond that, there is endless desolation.
As the saying goes: Compare goods and you will throw them away; compare people and you will get damned!
She had previously relied on her background to act pretentiously and did not take Cheng Zhu seriously.
But in the blink of an eye, this college student is already eligible to share the pie with the food delivery platform!
And how long has it been?
Magic City, Tianyun Capital.
Shang Qi pushed Wen Ting away and said in a deep voice, "Don't do it!"
I just got to work early in the morning, what are you doing!
After being pushed away, Wen Ting wiped the corner of her mouth, glanced at Shang Qi, and sneered: "Who used to love doing this early in the morning and then not letting me take a shower?"
"You were the one who insisted on doing this, don't confuse me!" Shang Qi frowned.
In fact, both of them were pursuing excitement before, and over time, they could not tell who was in charge of doing certain things.
All I can say is that we played too much, to the point where everyone’s memory is starting to blur.
Wen Ting looked at the middle-aged man in front of her and finally said nothing.
She felt that her recent life was a bit boring, so she sent a short essay to Zhang Sixing at that time.
At this moment, Shang Qi glanced at Wen Ting and said, "You told me last time that your husband is also making short videos now?"
"Ex-husband, OK?"
Shang Qi refused to cooperate with her in playing office play, so she would not cooperate with Shang Qi's husband play either.
"It was a company started by a college student named Cheng Zhu from Hangzhou. He's super handsome." Wen Ting pursed her lips.
"Yuzu tea is indeed a good project. It's not easy to get involved now." Shang Qi sighed.
Tianyun Capital is definitely not a top venture capital institution in Shanghai, it can only be considered a second-tier one.
Now, behind Youcha stands Yue Dongyi's Prin Capital and the well-known domestic Hongshan Capital.
Shangqi’s Tianyun Capital naturally seems to be useless.
"That makes sense. If I hadn't divorced Lao Zhang now, I would have the chance to help you make connections." Wen Ting said with a smile.
Shang Qi was immediately amused when he heard this: "What you said makes sense! This is really possible!"
He moved the boss chair under his butt, moved closer to Wen Ting, and grabbed her butt hard several times.
Let you divorce, let you divorce, let you divorce, ah! ?
As a result, this gentle and artistic girl screamed out loud, and her voice was quite loud. If someone was standing outside the office, they would definitely hear it.
This made Shang Qi stop immediately and he didn't bother to pay attention to this crazy woman who was just looking for excitement.
He crossed his legs, leaned back in his chair, sat back in front of the computer, and said, "Although Youcha is very popular now, the short video platform is not something that a young person like you can handle. I'm afraid your husband is with the wrong person."
"It's so funny. I should follow you, right? Go work at the [Paipai] where you invested money?"
"That's interesting."
Shang Qi put his hand on the mouse, and the QQ phone logged into his computer kept ringing.
He opened a QQ group. There were not many members in it. They were all people in the venture capital circle of Shanghai. Although each of them was not as good as Yue Dongyi, they were all quite powerful.
At this moment, the group is hotly discussing Ele.me's F round of financing.
“The newcomers are very capable.”
"Top-grade cake, that's normal."
"I went to talk to him, and his attitude was very calm."
"Relatively speaking, I am more optimistic about Mi Tuan. Zhang Xuhao is still young."
"I can understand everything else. It's normal for supermarkets like Hualian to come in and share the pie. It can help expand some of Ele.me's channels and new retail businesses. What's going on with Cheng Zhu?"
Shang Qi's gaze focused on the two words "Cheng Zhu" and his eyes narrowed slightly in an instant.
He began to type on the keyboard: "Cheng Zhu, the one for Yuzucha?"
"Yes, we have learned from the side, it is him!"
This made the partner of Tianyun Capital frown.
Just now he thought that Cheng Zhu, a college student, was not qualified.
Wen Ting leaned over to take a look at his computer screen, and immediately an expression of endless surprise appeared on her quiet and gentle face.
She is a finance woman and when she was in Hangzhou she worked in a venture capital firm as a manager.
Therefore, she was also very clear about what it meant for Cheng Zhu to invest in Ele.me!
The one sitting at the head seat at this dining table is Xiao Ma Ge, the penguin!
How many investors have approached Ele.me, only to return empty-handed?
This means that the name Cheng Zhu will spread throughout the investment community today and become a hotly discussed figure among countless investors!
Many investors may have similar thoughts as Shang Qi:
"I am not even qualified to get a share of the pie, so why should Cheng Zhu get it?!"
【Are you hungry】’s Series F financing can be said to be big news.
Today, the three major food delivery platforms are all very popular. After all, there is a competition between [BAT] behind them!
With Baidu, Alibaba and Tencent entering the market, its prospects can be imagined.
The headlines of major financial news were all occupied by [Are you hungry?], and this round of financing also successfully made it to the hot search list on Weibo.
The name Cheng Zhu seems particularly abrupt in the news, but it is precisely because of his abruptness that he stands out so much!
To be honest, Hungry? raised a total of US$630 million this time.
Of the 630 million US dollars, Cheng Zhu only took up 20 million. After all, all he wanted was an admission ticket. No party was willing to give him more of such a top-notch pie.
These 20 million US dollars are just a bonus at best?
But when the news came out, he was the one who attracted the most attention!
There's nothing we can do about it. It's too hype and too easy to write off.
Like he just turned 19 and is only a sophomore at the start of school. These are all gimmicks.
What does this tell us?
——It’s better to show off as early as possible!
The same thing done by a person in his thirties and a person under twenty years old will bring completely different levels of shock!
The ones who pay the most attention to the updates of “Are You Hungry?” are naturally the other two major food delivery platforms.
When Gong Zhenbin, CEO of Baidu Takeout, saw this, he was speechless.
"No wonder after chatting with Zhang Xuhao, he didn't even chat with us on Baidu!"
"At first I thought he was looking down on Baidu!"
"Wow, I didn't expect Zhang Xuhao would actually be willing to let him invest?"
He certainly could not meet such conditions, and his say in the company was not as great as Zhang Xuhao's in Ele.me.
Besides, Mr. Li from Baidu once made a bold statement that he would spend 20 billion to play around!
Look, how majestic!
After seeing the news, Gong Zhenbin came to two conclusions.
"I don't know what Zhang Xuhao is thinking."
"Cheng Zhu doesn't look down on my Baidu Takeaway!"
On the other side, Wang Xin and Murong Jun were sitting on the sofa in the office, staring at each other.
For example, [Are You Elephant] and Hualian have formed a deep ties, so they need to have a serious meeting to discuss a subsequent response strategy.
Other newly introduced capital should not be underestimated. Those who can come in to share the pie are all giants!
But this Cheng Zhu is a little bit weird and hard to describe.
But such a result just proved how ridiculous and disgusting the pie he had drawn for Cheng Zhu was, and how completely unappetizing it was!
Wang Xin: I want to recruit this guy under my platform!
Cheng Zhu: I want to invest in the platform!
"What is Zhang Xuhao doing?" Murong Jun was extremely confused.
"I don't think so. Is it necessary to go to this extent?" Wang Xin also frowned deeply.
With his ambition, he wouldn't even be happy if Alibaba wanted to take a larger stake, let alone a mere Cheng Zhu!
In the final analysis, everyone thinks this matter is outrageous because they all think: Is Cheng Zhu worthy of it?
"Forget it. There's nothing to think too much about this matter. Let's just assume that Zhang Xuhao is just going crazy in order to compete with us for [Yuzu Tea] and [Ming Tea]."
"Anyway, it's not the first time he has done something similar to what his superiors did." Wang Xin chuckled.
He looked at his right-hand man Murong Jun and continued, "The most important thing now is to implement our current plan smoothly."
"Do you want to make any changes?" Murong Jun asked.
"Well, for this round of financing of Ele.me, we have to increase our spending power and act as if you have raised the money, but we don't have to worry about money at all!" Wang Xin replied.
"As for the rest of the things, it all depends on Bao Fan." He said in a low voice.
Murong Jun nodded after hearing this.
Now, the trend is set, there is no regret in making this move!
In this game, Cheng Zhu, who entered the game inexplicably, seemed insignificant and did not require much attention.
Their goal is to backstab Ali and switch to Penguin! Replace Hungry?
In this way, even Zhang Xuhao will become a discarded pawn!
What’s more, Cheng Zhu is an idle chess piece on the chessboard.
What is Xianqi doing at this moment?
Cheng Zhu was in high spirits in the company and exuded a domineering aura in front of his employees.
The news that their own boss had invested in Hungry? had spread inside both companies, Yuzucha and Stick to Visit!
As a representative of the management, Gu Debo came over cautiously and asked, "Mr. Cheng, is that you in the Hungry? financing news?"
There is no way. China is too big and there are too many people. Many unpopular names are likely to have people with the same name and surname.
Cheng Zhu glanced at him and smiled faintly: "What do you think?"
Then, he saw the expression on Gu Debo's face becoming visibly excited!
What the hell, what the hell, what the hell!
Our BOSS has really invested in the platform!
In this way, our Youzu tea instantly became the most special one among all milk tea merchants!
This is undoubtedly exciting news for these managements.
Our future is bright!
Look at Yuecha, Lecha, and Chayu. Haha, what level are you?
In fact, Chen Yue, Wu Han and other friendly competitors are now really dumbfounded.
After forming an alliance, these "six small sects" were easily turned into a mess by Cheng Zhu.
Now, everyone is acting dumbfounded and have no idea how Cheng Zhu did it!
"It's so difficult for me to ask Mi Tuan for better merchant treatment, and Cheng Zhu has directly invested in the platform?" Sister Yue turned into a crazy woman, feeling that she was once again being pinned to the ground by Cheng Zhu.
No! If you are so awesome, it will be very difficult for us to raise funds in the future!
Now the [takeaway war] is in full swing, and anyone with a little bit of common sense has realized that this is the future trend of the catering industry.
For many chain brands, the money earned from takeout is definitely much more than that from dine-in.
You are so good, you have suddenly become a shareholder of the platform!
As we all know, the platform is destined to become the father of merchants in the future!
"Even if he is just a small shareholder, he is still my little father!" Chen Yue became more and more crazy.
"Fortunately, fortunately I didn't sign an exclusive agreement with Ele.me." She suddenly felt somewhat relieved.
Considering the commercial value of his own brand, Cheng Zhu's actions are equivalent to a long-range attack on a number of friendly competitors!
For Sister Yu Yue, the only thing that made her happy today was that after much hesitation, the product she bought was finally delivered.
"You can't give up your happiness just because of a grudge in the business world, right?"
"The products of Xiatounan are really addictive! Phew~~~"
Two days passed and Cheng Zhu was no longer as busy as before.
The mountain of work that Yucha had been working on had basically been solved, and the joint plans for August had also been deployed and arranged.
Now, Shen Qingning is focusing on both [joint venture] and [take-out], and both parts are left to her to be responsible for in the future.
Cheng Zhu enjoyed his leisure time, since he had been planning to “lock” Ning Ning in the pomelo tea anyway.
After a long time, a phenomenon will appear - Yuzucha can't leave Shen Qingning, and Shen Qingning can't give up Yuzucha.
"That's pretty good, isn't it?" the dog man thought.
After having some free time, Cheng Zhu suddenly remembered that he had neglected the pair of sisters named Yi Qi Zhui for a long time.
He didn't feel much about Zhang Qiqi. After all, in this dog man's eyes, Qiqi had already tasted the sweetness from him?
Well, what is being referred to here is the rapid advancement of the internet celebrity career, and has nothing to do with the Land Rover on a rainy night.
But Yiyi has been living under someone else's roof for almost a month.
She is really like half of Zhang Qiqi's assistant now. Sometimes, when Zhang Qiqi goes to work, she will follow her to help.
Although he didn't receive any salary, Meng Yiyi didn't gain nothing.
In this process, the smart girl has figured out some of the operating models and procedures of internet celebrities.
When Qiqi was chatting with other internet celebrities, she began to understand the contract levels of Hangzhou internet celebrities and the pros and cons of each company through eavesdropping.
She was like a sponge, absorbing all kinds of information crazily.
Sometimes when Zhang Qiqi went to Gushan Culture, she would follow her.
Everyone in the company likes this girl very much. Not only is she pure and pretty, but she is also sweet-spoken and very approachable.
Compared to her cousin who is so proud of herself, many people like Meng Yiyi more.
During this month, the pure little white flower felt that her life was very fulfilling.
So much so that when her mother Meng Qingyu called her, she could use this as an excuse not to return to Tai City.
She's like she's in her internship period now!
Her personal requirement for herself is: If I can get the same resources as Zhang Qiqi, I must be sure to do better than her!
At night, the two sisters finished their day's work and returned to Xiyuan Apartment.
Zhang Qiqi took off her shoes, threw her bag on the sofa, and then half-collapsed on the sofa, not wanting to move at all.
She had her period a few days ago, and she has the type of dysmenorrhea that makes it impossible for her to go out to work.
As a result, a lot of work piled up at once, making these two days particularly tiring.
"I haven't been to yoga class for a long time. My coach keeps urging me to go to class." Zhang Qiqi picked up her phone, checked WeChat, looked up at Meng Yiyi, and said:
"Yiyi, do you want to take a yoga class? How about you take two classes?"
“Ah? But I don’t have yoga clothes or yoga pants.” Yiyi replied.
Zhang Qiqi, the [Innate Yoga Pants Saint] nodded and said, "Yeah, you can't wear mine either."
She let out a long "Oh~~", grabbed a pillow and half-lay on the sofa, feeling that what she needed most now was a SPA.
"I'm going to remove my makeup now, and then I'll treat you to a SPA. I'll also bring two [Ex-Boyfriend Masks], so I can apply the mask while lying down." Zhang Qiqi suggested.
"Okay, thank you, sister!" Yiyi's face immediately showed a pleasant surprise, but she quickly added: "But sister, I can't use SK2's [Ex-Boyfriend Mask], I seem to be a little allergic to this product, and it will cause small granules."
"Oh, maybe you are too young and your skin is too tender, so it's a bit too nourishing for you, little underage!" Zhang Qiqi smiled, thinking that she was saving herself money.
Just like that, after the two girls rested for a while, they went out for SPA.
After returning home, Zhang Qiqi felt that her skin and mental state had improved a lot.
But what really gave her a new lease of life was the WeChat message from Cheng Zhu!
"Senior, do you want to have a midnight snack tonight?"
Ah! My junior finally remembered that he still owed me a midnight snack!
Recently, this internet celebrity campus beauty becomes a bit emo every late at night and even starts to doubt herself.
I did all this for him in the car, doesn't he want to take the initiative to look for me again?
Now, Cheng Zhu took the initiative to find her. The former angler, now a black bass, immediately excused him in her heart: "I knew he was too busy some time ago!"
"No, I need to take a shower now and put on my makeup!"
She had just finished a SPA and had essential oil applied to her back, which was a little sticky.
Since she removed her makeup before going out, she is now in a bare-faced state. But she can't go to meet her junior like this, she must put on some beautiful makeup!
Zhang Qiqi immediately returned to the room and started washing her face and taking a shower.
When most women take a bath, the water will gather and flow down in the lush grass.
This wealthy family where not a blade of grass grows is not like that.
When applying shower gel, her skin is extremely smooth, without the prickly touch after manual weeding, and that patch of skin does not look gray, just like other parts of the body.
After taking a shower, Zhang Qiqi wrapped herself in a bath towel and stood in front of the mirror. She began to apply toner to herself, gently pressing her face so that it would be easier to absorb.
Make sure the toner is fully absorbed before applying essence and cream.
After doing all this, she put her face close to the mirror to observe the condition of her skin.
As her upper body leaned forward slightly, her body wrapped in the bath towel naturally formed a beautiful line, and her buttocks were slightly lifted up, making the bath towel in an extreme position, revealing the two arcs under the buttocks that many people would show when wearing hot shorts.
After finishing her skin care, Zhang Qiqi wrapped herself in a bath towel, hummed a little tune, and walked to the closet with her long legs exposed.
After hesitating for a while, she took out a set of underwear from the drawer.
(ps: Ask for monthly tickets to top the list!)
