Chapter 569: The Wind Blows Across the Thousand Miles
Counselor Chen Jieyu looked at Cheng Zhu's leave application and naturally felt a little amused.
Go and invest with Penguin and Wanda [Comment]?
This is probably the only weird leave request in the whole city of Hangzhou.
No, it may be the only one in the country!
Cheng Zhu wants to ask for leave, and there is no way the counselor will refuse to approve it.
After all, if she didn't approve, she might be criticized.
In addition, Chen Jieyu and Cheng Zhu have been together for a long time and have developed a tacit understanding with each other.
She knew very well that Cheng Zhu's arrogant leave request was really just to show off in front of his woman.
Oh, then you definitely have to pretend.
But the intention was also to ask her to report this matter to all the school leaders.
Cheng Zhu now has close relations with a number of school leaders of the University of Science and Technology.
The first-hand information of such a major event will definitely be told to the school first so that the school can publicize it immediately and respond to subsequent events such as interviews with reporters.
"On the first day of school, shouldn't you set a good example for all the students in the school?" The bastard started to show off.
Nowadays, Chen Jieyu is like a link between Cheng Zhu and a group of school leaders.
In fact, he can directly and unilaterally contact any school leader, including the principal.
But
Cheng Zhu: "I won't!"
From the beginning to the end, he had always intended to let Concubine Chen play this role.
This way, if she still wants to work on campus, it will be convenient for her to switch to administration in the future.
Cheng Zhu would not interfere too much in her work and would generally respect her personal choices.
In his opinion, because Teacher Chen's original family was too bad, she actually had very few choices in her life.
Therefore, he would not consider other factors too much, as long as she liked it.
Anyway, it would be easy for Mr. Cheng to give her a side job so that she can live a worry-free life.
At this moment, when the president of the University of Science and Technology, Chen Xingwen, learned about this, an easy and comfortable smile immediately appeared on his face.
"Student Cheng Zhu is really good at making trouble!" Principal Chen thought.
A college student invested 20 million US dollars in [Are You Hungry] and then invested another 35 million US dollars in [Dianping]!
This gimmick is really enough.
It will definitely make headlines again!
There's nothing I can do, just because he's a sophomore!
This identity will become the most eye-catching label.
President Chen is well aware that if this happens, the words "Zhejiang University of Science and Technology" will definitely appear in major news and on major social platforms.
For some reason, Principal Chen Xingwen felt a little ashamed!
"Alas! All along, the school has not given much support to Cheng Zhu."
But looking back at Cheng Zhu, how many times has he brought honor to the school?
Shame on you, really shame on you!
After feeling deeply ashamed, President Chen Xingwen decided to straighten his head and visit the nationally renowned Zhejiang University in Hangzhou.
Magic city, night.
Cheng Zhu went to the Dianping headquarters in the afternoon and completed the process.
After everyone finished their evening dinner, as he expected, Zhang Tao and Zhang Xuhao insisted on dragging him out for a long talk all night.
The location was finally chosen as a yakitori restaurant.
As a veteran gourmet, Zhang Tao repeatedly emphasized that this is what he considers to be the best yakitori restaurant in Shanghai.
Cheng Zhu tried it and found that it tasted really good.
As a reborn person, his first reaction when he saw this thing was the Yakitori market many years later.
"Since the street stall economy has become popular, there are more and more yakitori stalls on the street."
"And the price of grilled bird is much more expensive than barbecue."
"If you want to eat your fill of yakitori, it's going to cost a lot of money."
“The profits are quite substantial.”
"The cost of setting up a stall is not high, and the threshold for start-up capital is acceptable."
Of course, this is also related to the eating habits of Chinese people.
We in this great foodie empire don’t eat like people in the island countries, with their small stomachs, only eating so much in a day.
Sit there drinking all night, and just eat two or three skewers of these little things!
This has also led to the so-called "three no phenomena" in Asia, which is a spectacle.
Japanese people don't eat, Koreans don't sleep, Chinese people don't take holidays
Zhang Tao sat there and ordered a lot of grilled birds.
There weren't any expensive sakes in the store, so I just bought two bottles of Dassai.
"The taste of this wine is actually quite to my liking," said Zhang Tao.
"When brewing, only a small part of the rice's essence is taken. The higher the grade of the wine, the less is taken, which is quite a waste of grain."
"Luckily, it's RB's food that's wasted, hahaha!"
Taozi even took the initiative to make a joke, which was rare.
Cheng Zhu could see today that Zhang Tao and Zhang Xuhao were in a good mood.
[Comment] The new round of financing has gone smoothly, which means that they can now attack from both sides and outflank [Mi Tuan] together!
If [MiTuan] cannot get out of the predicament, then he will have to give up the throne of the number one in the group buying and takeout field!
When everyone gathers for dinner in the evening, they all drink.
At this moment, the three of them drank a few glasses of wine and became very excited to talk.
Zhang Tao lowered his voice, raised a finger, and placed it in front of the tip of his nose. While speaking, he gently tapped the air with his index finger:
"I'm telling you some gossip!"
"Wang Xin, he went to Ali two days ago!"
Cheng Zhu and Zhang Xuhao looked at each other and said in unison: "Is this true?"
"Oh! I heard the gossip!" Zhang Tao waved his hands, but it felt quite true.
Cheng Zhu narrowed his eyes slightly, knowing what this meant.
This means that Lao Wang, who has no other way out, has to go to his father Ali to apologize!
As mentioned before, once the three giants personally get involved, all venture capitalists will start to take sides.
In this form, if your company does not have the support of one of the three giants, venture capitalists will not invest money because it is doomed to fail.
Wang Xin has now failed in his transformation into Lu Bu, and cannot go to Penguin to perform the classic drama of "If You Don't Give Up", so he can only go back to Alibaba in disgrace to admit his mistake.
Otherwise, what will await [Rice Ball] is a catastrophic disaster!
Thinking of this, Cheng Zhu couldn't help but look at the passionate Hao Ge.
"Being held hostage by Ali, this should have been your script, Ah Hao!" he thought to himself.
In the previous life, after the successful merger of MiTuan and Dianping, Alibaba was furious and chose to withdraw its shares. Wang Xin successfully fell into the arms of Penguin.
However, Ele.me, which was originally under the Penguin Group, found itself in a very embarrassing situation. Eventually, it was forcefully injected into it by Alibaba and was forced to switch to the other platform.
The final result was naturally a comprehensive acquisition and it became part of the Alibaba system. It began to decline from then on and was no longer on the same level as Midan Takeout.
As for the once passionate Hao Ge, he eventually left [Are You Hungry], which carried his entire youth, and the founder was directly kicked out.
Thinking of this, Cheng Zhu couldn't help but put his arm on Zhang Xuhao's shoulder and suddenly said without any context: "You are so lucky."
Zhang Xuhao was stunned, it was obvious that he couldn't understand his deeper meaning.
He just wondered: "How can I say that I am lucky to have such a result? This is the result of the joint efforts of the three of us!"
The passionate Hao brother also said in a high-pitched voice: "Everything depends on human effort!"
Upon hearing this, Cheng Zhu smiled slightly.
The next day was the opening day of the blind box store [Boat] Starlight City store.
Boat is the English word for boat, so Jiang Wanzhou’s blind box shop was named [Bo Te] after its homonym.
The naming direction was suggested by Cheng Zhu.
In his memory, the names of blind box stores are mostly strange.
[Pop Mart] is not an isolated case, there are some even stranger ones.
The models of Pop Mart that became popular at the beginning, such as the well-known MOLLY, had a very strange mouth shape, with a pouty mouth.
This is also very similar to the moment when the mouth closes after making a "boo" sound.
At this moment, in Starlight City.
Jiang Wanzhou in a formal suit would be considered quite elegant, if only his walking posture wasn't so feminine.
Lin Lu, the second largest shareholder, also dressed up nicely today.
Cheng Zhu has always felt that the brand [miumiu] was tailor-made for Lin Lu.
She is still wearing [miumiu] today, which makes her look very girlish.
So when Ji Shiwen stood next to her, she would turn from a little beauty into just an ordinary person.
Sometimes, people actually look at the whole thing.
Lin Lu's beauty is not only reflected in her facial features and figure, but also in the agility and vitality that radiates from her inside out.
It is not yet the auspicious time for the official opening. Xiaolu stands aside, watching Jiang Wanzhou busying around with boredom.
She put her hands behind her back, sometimes raised her toes, sometimes lowered them, and her body swayed slightly back and forth.
"It seems that Mr. Jiang is quite nervous." She whispered to Ji Shiwen beside her.
"Yeah, I feel a little confused." Ji Shiwen nodded on the side.
She asked curiously, "It should have been like this when Cheng Zhu opened his first store, right?"
Hearing this, Lin Lu fell into reminiscence.
She thought for a moment and said directly, "That's not the case."
She seemed to have hardly ever seen any nervousness in Cheng Zhu.
The only time I clearly felt his nervousness and panic was when I suddenly confessed to him.
When the deer thought of this, he actually felt a little proud and thought that he was very powerful.
Ji Shiwen glanced at Lin Lu and said, "Do you always have a filter for Cheng Zhu? Although he is very successful in his career now, a normal person who starts a business for the first time will definitely be a little nervous on the opening day."
"What! Filters! You make it sound like I'm crazy about him!" Lin Lu was displeased.
"Don't you? Cheng Zhu is indeed very handsome." Ji Shiwen joked.
"No, no, how is that possible!" Lin Lu waved his hands.
I'm not that superficial!
Ji Shiwen glanced at her boyfriend who was busy not far away, then looked at Lin Lu, and couldn't help but say, "But Cheng Zhu, he didn't even have time to attend the store opening of his childhood friend and girlfriend."
"There's nothing I can do about it. He has something to do in the Magic City and there's a schedule conflict." Lin Lu didn't care and thought it was nothing.
Ji Shiwen curled her lips slightly and looked at Jiang Wanzhou and said, "But his childhood friend doesn't think so. He was going to postpone the opening date for Cheng Zhu."
"Ah? Is there such a thing? It turns out that they are the two of them are true love!" Lin Lu was still in the mood to joke on the side.
She wondered, "Then why wasn't it postponed in the end?"
"Wanzhou said that Cheng Zhu asked him if he had asked someone to calculate the auspicious date, and he said that his mother had asked a master to calculate it."
"Then, he said to Jiang Wanzhou: I know you don't believe in this either, but I think if you didn't calculate it from the beginning, it doesn't matter. Since you've done it and someone has said it, just do it."
Lin Lu was surprised: "Ah? He would care about this?"
She always felt that Cheng Zhu was just short of having the word "unruly" written on his face.
Deep down, he is a fearless person!
Little do we know that people are reborn, so we still have to believe it to some extent.
He also felt that since someone had said it, it would be better to do it this way. Otherwise, there would always be a thorn in his heart. When something happened, he might fall into self-doubt, wondering if it was because he had not chosen the right day, which would also affect his state.
As for whether it is useful to find a master, it is still secondary. Just treat it as a blessing and have fun.
Inside the store, Jiang Wanzhou was still busy doing something.
Sometimes I push the oversized trendy toys in, and sometimes I tidy up the blind box shelves.
His cell phone rang at this moment. He picked it up and saw that it was Cheng Zhu calling.
"Hello, Mr. Cheng." He answered the phone.
Jiang Wanzhou really didn't call Cheng Zhu "Mr. Cheng" in a sarcastic tone because Cheng Zhu was too busy.
He had no opinions or thoughts about Cheng Zhu.
Cheng Zhu knew this in his heart, so he immediately said, "It's so funny. When you saw the two rows of flower baskets I sent for the grand opening, you knew to call me Mr. Cheng, right?"
"Of course I am. I am speechless. You are making such a big fuss for me. Damn it!" Jiang Wanzhou couldn't help but curse.
No! I knew you would give me two rows of flower baskets, but I didn't expect this fucking flower basket to look so high-end, and your two rows would be so long!
He didn't know how much money Cheng Zhu spent, but it was definitely not a small amount.
"Are you sick? Isn't it good enough to give you face?" Cheng Zhu cursed immediately after hearing that.
"Brother, the first floor of Starlight City is full of big brands, even luxury goods. Even their grand openings don't have such grand flower baskets!" Jiang Wanzhou felt a little embarrassed.
"You're talking nonsense! Many luxury brands have celebrities attending their opening ceremonies, right?" Cheng Zhu said.
"But, you would have had handsome guys who are as good as stars there, too. It's a pity that I have to discuss a big deal worth billions in Shanghai." Cheng Zhu was still narcissistic.
When Jiang Wanzhou heard this, although he chuckled, he actually felt that he was right.
He is indeed a star now.
Their business nowadays is indeed often measured in billions.
When he thought of this, Mr. Jiang felt a little disappointed.
In the past, as a super rich second-generation, he was the one who took better care of Cheng Zhu in terms of material things.
Naturally, he would not be jealous of his good brother, but he could not avoid the feeling of disappointment in his heart.
Especially since he started his own business, he sometimes wondered, "Can I still catch up with him a little bit?"
He's not sure.
It is obvious that his starting point is much higher than Cheng Zhu's.
Sometimes, he even felt that he and Cheng Zhu at this stage were no longer from the same class.
Fortunately, their friendship has not changed.
Just as he was overwhelmed with emotions, Cheng Zhu's voice rang out again on the phone: "You useless thing, our [Bo Te] will definitely be a top brand in the future, it's just that we're setting up the show in advance, what's the problem with that?"
"Whatever is said in the itinerary is what it is." Jiang Wanzhou smiled.
Little did he know that a similar scene also happened when Cheng Zhu first started doing e-commerce.
In the e-commerce park in Wucheng, Cheng Zhu also called and scolded Jiang Wanzhou: "I am the smallest company in the whole park. I only rented 180 square meters. You should spread out these flower baskets a little more. I think they can only take up 80 square meters!"
"Are you messing with me, Mr. Jiang? This is a bit embarrassing!"
Jiang Wanzhou, who had already achieved some success in his career and made a name for himself in the trendy toy category, said with disdain: "You useless thing, can't you sell your fucking products like a big hit and beat the whole park?"
At that time, Cheng Zhu was not sure whether he could do it.
But what man is not tough?
"It'll only take a few minutes to die of laughter!"
And this time, Cheng Zhu naturally also stuffed a greeting card into Jiang Wanzhou's opening flower basket.
Just as Jiang Wanzhou did in his previous life, just as it did back then.
“By the way, although I wasn’t there in person, I wrote the greeting card myself,” he said on the phone.
He had prepared the greeting card in advance and it was indeed written by him personally without using anyone else to write for him.
Jiang Wanzhou was stunned for a moment: "Greeting card?"
He started to look for it outside and saw the card stuck in a flower basket.
On the greeting card, there was the same sentence:
"【Each of us works hard on the path, and we all share the same goal.】"
(ps: asking for monthly ticket~)
