Chapter 120 The First Day of the President Class
Time flies, and it is early August in a blink of an eye.
Chen Pingsheng registered for the EMBA CEO Management Class as scheduled.
In Beijing, the highest-ranked school of economics and management is naturally Tsinghua University.
Next are Peking University Guanghua School and Renmin University of China Business School.
Further down is the international business school he is currently enrolled in.
It is one of the earliest emba programs established in China and is also a well-known emba program in China.
This course focuses on internationalization and practical application, and is mainly dedicated to cultivating business leaders with global leadership.
Most of the people who sign up for this course are middle-aged people who already have their own careers or companies.
Or they are executives in large companies.
Of course, there is another special type of person.
This is related to a joke Chen Pingsheng had heard before, which is, if you find a mistress.
When you break up with your mistress, she comes to you and asks you for a high breakup fee.
If you don’t give it, you’ll suffer such and such.
At this time, you just need to sign her up for a CEO class. Then, instead of asking you for breakup money, she might even give you nothing.
Although it was a joke, it is not groundless.
It also illustrates the value of the EMBA Executive Program.
Not to mention that they are the group with the highest tuition fees.
There were only about twenty students in the class that Chen Pingsheng signed up for, and something happened that made him unhappy.
Wang Yanfeng was actually among them. Not to mention, after the two looked at each other, the Wang family's son sat as far away from him as possible.
It is better not to meet than to meet. Since we have met, we can stay as far apart as possible.
Most of the students in the class are middle-aged men, but there are also two unusual ones.
One is Tong Zelan, who has a very high academic degree and was jointly named the school belle during her college years.
She is now working as an investment manager in an international investment bank. Needless to say, anyone who can get into such a company must have a very good family background.
For details, please refer to the daughter and niece of the old Liu family. They are all advanced international investment banks.
The latter one went to the well-known Didi, and the other went to the larger Uber.
There is another person whose temperament does not belong to the category of talented woman.
After coming in, he was a little aloof, but also a little deliberate.
From time to time, she looked at the middle-aged men around her, pretending not to care.
This is a bit like the product of training in a high-end socialite class.
It's that kind of women's class that specifically teaches women how to find a rich husband.
The content taught in this kind of class is also very strange. It mainly allows women to cater to the presidents' preferences and understand their psychology.
In addition, various professional skills will also be taught.
Including English, dancing, playing the piano, etc. are all basic operations.
Her name is Huang Pujun, a self-reliant and independent woman who never relies on men.
Chen Pingsheng felt quite helpless as the woman was sitting quite close to him.
There is a faint smell of perfume on her body.
Only women in nightclubs would wear heavy makeup. Those in high-end circles all pay attention to leaving no trace and moistening things silently.
It just needs to be smooth so that you look natural, not too deliberate or too fake.
In contrast, Tong Zelan mentioned above is completely different.
She has enough strength and family background, so she doesn't need to please others.
Just need to be herself.
"Hello, Lei."
Guangdong oral cavity, looks a little fat.
Chen Pingsheng stood up and shook hands with him.
"My last name is He Bijun, and I raise pigs in Guangdong."
"My name is Chen Pingsheng. I sell some fruit and pork here in the capital."
"Well, we are half colleagues."
He Bijun is engaged in breeding. He has leased a lot of mountains in Guangdong to build pig farms.
In addition, the pork prices have been very good in recent years, so his income is also very high.
He Bijun sat next to him, and he felt that Chen Pingsheng could talk to him better.
There are more than twenty students in the class, and they do all kinds of things.
Those working in the Internet industry look down on those working in traditional industries, and those working in traditional industries look down on those working in breeding.
Finally, everyone looks down on those who work in real estate.
A group of younger brothers.
Unless you can reach the same level as him.
The first day of school is mainly about introducing each other and getting to know each other.
Then they quickly formed their own small circle. Tong Zelan, who came from an international investment bank, had the most extensive resources, and everyone in every circle wanted to have a good relationship with her.
Wang Yanfeng's Feiying Entertainment has become a hot topic in the eyes of many people.
Who doesn’t know that there are so many beauties in the entertainment industry?
After people have money, they want to do something different and gather a group of young stars to form a dance troupe.
It’s so nice to have fun late at night.
In addition, Wang Yanfeng's father is indeed very famous in Guangdong and is a real estate tycoon.
He became the second most important person after Tong Zelan.
There are two companies working in the Internet industry that are doing quite well, and their valuations have reached billions before they even go public.
The status is also extremely high.
As for Huang Pujun, he was able to please everyone before he determined his goal.
Finally, there are traditional industries like Chen Pingsheng and He Bijun, neither of whom can be considered industry leaders.
In addition, traditional industries have been deteriorating under the impact of the Internet in recent years.
I almost became the one with the least connections in the class.
But they are not the only two who do traditional things, there are several others.
It’s just that those people all want to squeeze into the real estate circle.
The small circle in a class also fully reflects the business circle in society.
Those who work in traditional industries all want to work in real estate, and those who work in real estate are expanding everywhere.
Football, hotels, entertainment, new energy.
Real estate tycoons are involved in everything.
As for the Internet, it wants to overturn everything.
In the morning, the teacher also introduced the subsequent course schedule.
The rest of the time is for them to get to know each other.
When it was time for lunch, we were given a lot of time because it was the first day.
The main thing is to let them get together and get to know each other.
"I know there's a really good restaurant nearby. Let me treat you all today."
Wang Yanfeng offered to treat everyone, which was actually normal, after all, there were few ordinary people in the class.
Everyone wants to build connections.
No one will be polite because to them the money for treating is nothing.
If Wang Yanfeng didn't have his own entertainment company and his father was not a real estate tycoon, he would not be qualified to organize the first day's game.
On the contrary, the fact that he could get everyone to sit at the table where he treated everyone on the first day proved his strength.
The person who firmly sits in the C position in the class.
Chen Pingsheng didn't want to go, but it was the first time his classmates were having a party. If he didn't go, it would inevitably leave a bad impression on others.
The place where Wang Yanfeng invited his guests to dinner was actually the hot pot restaurant opened by his own family, which was called Juxianzhuang.
Chen Pingsheng wanted to laugh. This guy sent people to Feiyangyang to investigate, and then turned around and pulled a few celebrities to open Juxianzhuang.
The investment is also not small. The area of each store is more than 300 square meters. Currently, eleven stores have been opened in Beijing.
This is to imitate Feiyangyang to the end.
"Mr. Wang, this restaurant isn't yours, is it?"
As a high-end woman, how can I not have good taste?
Huang Pujun leaned against Wang Yanfeng and took the opportunity to join in the fun.
"You can already see that. It's indeed my business. I only invested in it this year. Spending tens of millions is nothing."
Tens of millions are indeed nothing, but Wang Yanfeng is proud of his traffic business, which he is doing very well.
Thanks to the star effect, Juxianzhuang has been doing good business since its opening.
Wang Yanfeng found the largest private room. There were too many people and one table was not enough, so he simply set up two tables.
"Ze Lan, what do you think of my restaurant?"
"Very good." Tong Zelan replied without much expression.
Before the food was served, Wang Yanfeng took the opportunity to show off his investment.
"Actually, I didn't expect that using celebrities to tie the restaurant industry together would be so easy. It's no exaggeration to say that wherever Juxianzhuang opens, it's a hit. Next year, I plan to open another 100 locations, with an estimated investment of around 300 million yuan. Zelan, if you guys want to invest, I can give you a quote based on the lowest Series A valuation."
Tong Zelan works in an international investment bank.
What does it mean?
Once she decided to invest in Juxianzhuang, subsequent financing would basically be secured.
This is exactly the same as when you start an Internet business and get investment from Big Penguin in the A round.
With the big penguin leading the way, all the small investment banks below will chase after you.
"Boss Wang, isn't it inappropriate for you to let Boss Tong invest alone?"
Liu Hai, who works in real estate, spoke up. He didn't care whether Juxianzhuang made money or not, he just cared about using a small investment to get Wang Yanfeng's connections.
This allowed me to get to know his father, including visiting his Feiying Entertainment dance troupe.
"Haha, if anyone wants to vote for me, I'm welcome to do so."
To everyone's surprise, Tong Zelan said without hesitation: "Not interested."
Wang Yanfeng was embarrassed. He didn't expect that the woman would reject him so bluntly. This was no different from slapping him in the face in public.
There is no way, Tong Zelan's strength allows her to be so straightforward.
"I'm really not interested in your Juxianzhuang, but I think some people's hot pot restaurants are worth investing in."
"Who is it?"
"Old Yang isn't talking about you, are you also in the catering business?"
"How dare you bring up my little restaurant?"
"Then who else is working in the catering industry?"
Many people are a little curious, as catering is a traditional industry.
It is harder than climbing to the sky for this kind of traditional industry to obtain funds from international investment banks.
To put it bluntly, this track is no longer good. No matter how outstanding the players are on the track, it is difficult for them to receive enough attention.
Not to mention getting financing from international investment banks.
Tong Zelan looked directly at Chen Pingsheng and said, "Your Feiyangyang is very good. I've eaten there twice. The waiters are very friendly and the salary is high. If you want to invest in Feiyangyang, I can give you 100 million on behalf of the investment bank. However, I'm more interested in your other company..."
"You mean Shuiyunjian?"
Among the companies under Chen Pingsheng, Shuiyunjian actually has the largest space.
Tong Zelan nodded. "I'm a VIP customer of Shuiyunjian. I've ordered their door-to-door service three times. Honestly, it's excellent. If Shuiyunjian wants to raise funds, I can personally give it a valuation of 2.5 billion. I'd like to exchange 1 billion for 40% of your shares."
Chen Pingsheng was a little surprised: "You want to turn the door-to-door service into an Internet app?"
"That's right. One billion is enough for Shuiyunjian to take over the other three super first-tier cities in one fell swoop."
Tong Zelan said seriously, "The reason we want to make the door-to-door service an app is because I personally believe that the market for door-to-door service has more room than traditional stores. Especially when we go public in the future, if Shuiyunjian has its own app, it will be an internet company."
"You know, only by being labeled an internet company can your Shuiyunjian's future valuation potentially exceed tens of billions, or even hundreds of billions. The domestic high-end beauty and wellness market is also sufficient to support your Shuiyunjian reaching hundreds of billions."
I have to say, this woman really has good taste.
He saw the most valuable part of Shuiyunjian at a glance, and he had clearly seen this at the beginning.
That’s why we have invested heavily in door-to-door service and have repeatedly emphasized this.
Chen Pingsheng shook his head: "I'm sorry, I refuse."
You fucking bastard... Wang Yanfeng was dumbfounded. He took the initiative to ask for investment, but Tong Zelan ignored him at all.
Chen Pingsheng just sat there saying nothing, and the woman surnamed Tong actually went straight to him.
He even gave 1 billion directly, although 1 billion investment is not a lot these days.
But you have to know that this is given by an international investment bank.
If it takes a fancy to you, it means that you definitely have the room and possibility for development.
Otherwise, why would others give you ten billion?
Do you really think it's so easy to take other people's money?
Not only was he confused, even the two people working in the Internet industry were confused.
I have never heard of such a direct rejection of an international investment bank.
Even Huang Pujun was surprised.
She knew before that this person was a fruit seller, but she didn't expect that while selling fruit, he could also have several companies developing so well at the same time.
They can easily get money from international investment banks.
He is definitely not the worst in the class. To say that he is a diamond bachelor is being modest.
Tong Zelan herself didn't expect Chen Pingsheng to refuse so bluntly. 2.5 billion was already the highest valuation she could give.
After all, Shui Yunjian had invested less than 200 to 300 million yuan in total, so she calculated the valuation based on 2.5 billion yuan.
That's more than ten times.
Of course, if calculated based on its price-to-earnings ratio, 2.5 billion is actually not a high amount.
You should know that investing in a Shuiyunjian only costs 10 million yuan at most, but the annual profit can reach between 20 and 60 million yuan.
There is a saying in the bank: if you can get an annual interest rate of 100%, then you are not borrowing money from the bank.
Instead, the bank is chasing you to give you money.
That's the reality.
Of course, Tong Zelan's value is definitely not just 1 billion.
But she can really push Shuiyunjian to the trillion level.
This is really scary.
