You're forcing me to be reborn, right?

In the Shen family, only Shen Minglang is still anxious and foolish.

He only wondered why his father didn't hurry up to raise money. For a project as good as Pomelo Tea, all venture capital institutions are vying to enter the market. If we miss this opportunity, we will never get it again!

Little did they know that Shen Guoqiang and Shen Qingning were already feeling the pressure.

Now it's not a question of how much money to invest.

But is Cheng Zhu willing to continue to let us invest?

Do we still have the qualifications to invest!

After Shen Minglang saw that his father and sister were silent after he finished pretending to be second-hand.

At first, he thought he was shocked by the power he had just learned and was digesting the terrible amount of information here.

"Haha, they would never have thought that we have already laid out on the food delivery platform!"

"That's right, after all, the food delivery platform has only started to go crazy this year, and everyone's focus was on group buying before."

"The layout is far-reaching, and there are clues. It's normal to be surprised, hahahaha!"

As a result, Shen Guoqiang said a long time later: "Are you on good terms with Cheng Zhu?"

This middle-aged old arrogant had never thought that a business project of a junior would one day involve human relationships and the depth of feelings.

He, Shen Guoqiang, is at least a well-known figure in the Hangzhou business community. He never thought that such an outrageous situation would occur before.

He knew very well that from the perspective of business, the Shen family could only bring limited help to Youcha.

However, the Shen family actually has the so-called "dragon's merit".

Because the investment was made early, it directly invested 60 million in the first round.

However, there is something awkward here. If the Shen family invested at the same time as Prin Capital, then this "merit of following the dragon" is set in stone. Everyone can say that they have a keen eye for talent and have unearthed an extremely awesome underwater project.

In the future, no matter how many rounds of financing there are, we can be very tough to ask for priority. After all, when your Yucha was not so optimistic about the capital market, it was us who helped you grow and develop, and the credit book must be written on the first page anyway!

However, the problem is that Shen Guoqiang invested money, and one of the factors was that Yue Dongyi's Prin Capital invested 100 million! He followed the investment after that!

Moreover, Yue Dongyi wanted to invest more than 100 million at the beginning, but Cheng Zhu took the initiative to refuse, leaving such a gap for the Shen family.

Merit of following the dragon?

Are you following Cheng Zhu?

You are following the legendary figure Yue Dongyi in the investment circle!

The most useful help the Shen family can currently provide is to open a back door for Yucha in Xingguang City.

But the fact is: Yucha has increased the customer flow of the mall by its own efforts! Thus raising the turnover of the mall, plus the first round of financing deliberately gave 60 million opportunities, Cheng Zhu has given a lot.

Of course, this is also because he has always looked down on his son, so he has been downplaying Shen Minglang and Yucha's work.

In fact, Cheng Zhu can't find a second person who is more suitable for this job than him for the time being.

This job is too lucrative and too exaggerated. Only our Mr. Shen is not greedy for a penny, and he even paid for the upgrade to first class.

At this moment, after hearing Shen Guoqiang asking about the relationship between the siblings and Cheng Zhu, Shen Minglang and Shen Qingning were in completely different moods.

Shen Minglang: Damn, they are not cousins, but better than cousins!

Lao Deng, why are you asking this, you don't want to give money, right? This is not because of a good relationship that you come to ask for money! You wake up!

Shen Qingning: My relationship with Cheng Zhu?

Thousands of complex emotions surged in my heart in an instant.

Everything in the past began to surge in Shen Qingning's heart, and in the end, only the classic four-character relationship was left: [Business is business]!

Fortunately, Shen Minglang spoke as a representative: "Dad, the relationship is really super good, otherwise how can we call each other cousins? And he and Jiang Wanzhou are childhood friends, and everyone knows each other well."

"You can see from my work at Youcha that I am obviously highly valued!" He also started to brag.

Shen Guoqiang raised his eyes and stared at him for a long time, and finally just nodded silently.

If the relationship is really strong and there is no gap in the cooperation now, there is indeed room for operation.

He looked at his children and said: "For this second round of financing, my idea is that we hope that our Shen family will not be diluted."

"You should also get together with Cheng Zhu more recently, and the relationship needs to be maintained."

Although the cash flow of the Shen family is very tight, he still gritted his teeth and said: "We will invest as much as he is willing to let you two follow up!"

Shen Minglang: Satisfied, comfortable.

Shen Qingning: This is the first time I've seen my father treat a young man like this.

A few minutes later, Shen Guoqiang went upstairs alone and walked into the study.

He was going to start raising as much money as possible, and now, immediately, right away!

Shen Qingning and Shen Minglang were left alone in the living room, one feeling a little depressed, and the other very excited.

Shen Minglang looked at his sister and said, "It seems that Old Shen still takes our Youcha seriously. I'm really afraid that he won't invest well this time."

'How could someone not take Youcha seriously? " Shen Qingning was a little speechless, not understanding her brother's weird train of thought.

"Then he also asked if we had a good relationship with Cheng Zhu?"

Shen Qingning's face condensed slightly and she said seriously: "Haven't you figured it out yet?"

"Understand what?"

"With Pomelo Tea's current popularity in the capital market, there is no need to worry about financing or no one to invest money. Therefore, what Cheng Zhu has to do now is to screen and select the ones that are most beneficial to himself and Pomelo Tea. "

"I definitely understand this."

"But compared with these high-quality capitals on the market, what help can our family bring to Pomelo Tea? Have you ever thought about this!" Shen Qingning pointed out directly.

"Ah? So what you're saying is that dad is worried that my cousin may not want our family's money that much and thinks the money outside is better?" Shen Minglang was shocked.

Shen Qingning nodded slightly and said softly: "This possibility cannot be ruled out."

She felt that after talking about this, he should finally change his mind, right?

As a result, Shen Minglang stood up as soon as he received the gift, and then waved his hand, quite like Wei Wu: "Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"

Cool girl: "

She didn't know how many times he had made her speechless today.

"Shen Minglang, our personal relationship and business with Cheng Zhu are two different things." She said solemnly, "That's not what you're saying. You see, I hold an important position in Youcha now. My cousin has emphasized to me more than once, "I am the only one in the company who can do the job I am doing now, and no one else can!"

Hearing this, Shen Qingning knew that Shen Minglang had been placed in the most suitable position for him by Cheng Zhu, but this value alone was far from enough!

What surprised her was that her brother, who was usually very afraid of her, actually walked up to her and said, "And Cheng Zhu also said,

You said that your performance at Jay Chou's concert was particularly good, which provided him with a perfect opportunity and promoted all subsequent operations. "

"He also said that your personal abilities are very strong and your business sense is much sharper than mine. He wants you to be the CF of Pomelo Tea in the future.

Oh! "

"Ning Ning, you should understand what a position like CFO means to a company. Cheng Zhuming obviously values ​​you very much. You have a high status in his heart. Isn't this valuable?"

‘Old Shen is not from our Pomelo Tea family, what does he know! "Shen Minglang was dismissive, and the corners of his mouth were tilted, showing off his domineering attitude.

This sunny and cheerful boy even persuaded Ning Ning, patted Ning Ning on the shoulder, and said:

"So, you don't need to belittle yourself."

This world is so interesting sometimes.

The Shen family all felt that Shen Minglang was the most confused, but sometimes, it was his Qifan brain that was the clearest.

Cheng Zhu's emphasis on the Shen family is indeed about people. This is a part of his plan to "kidnap the Shen family". Shen Minglang's irreplaceability needs no further emphasis.

As for Shen Qingning, she has a flexible mind and a keen sense of business. She has been nurtured by her family since she was a child, and she is used to maintaining rational thinking and independent thinking. She can completely abuse Yuecha's CEO Chen Yue.

Not to mention the legs, these legs, sizzle-

——

, her legs are sizzling-

—

Cheng Zhu does not lack people to invest.

But what if this is the case?

Shen Guoqiang: This is for Ningning’s dowry.

Cheng Zhu: Ouch, this is so embarrassing, ouch!

For the same amount of investment, its nature and value suddenly change.

At this moment, Shen Qingning returned to the room, but the words Shen Minglang said were still echoing in her mind.

"You take me seriously?"

“Do you want me to be CFO?”

She sat in her chair, a little lost in thought.

Before she knew it, her sitting position changed to squatting on a chair.

The well-proportioned flesh of the calf and the thigh are together. His hands are still hugging his legs, his head is resting on his knees, and his eyes are gradually losing focus.

After a while, she came back to her senses, then picked up her phone and purchased a batch of books online.

This time I didn’t buy a romance novel, but a book related to the work of a CFO.

She was still thinking about whether to sign up for some more classes.

"Everything is for pomelo tea." Shen Qingning thought to herself.

Time passed and May 12th came in a blink of an eye.

Cheng Zhu planned to complete the financing in late May, so he had been waiting for his favorite venture capital to come to him.

During this period, [Rice Tuan Takeaway], [Are You Hungry], and [Baidu Takeout] also contacted him, but Cheng Zhu still refused with the same old tactics.

"Settling in, settling in, settling in is nothing!"

"Stand still!"

Nowadays, pomelo tea stores are basically operating at full capacity, unless the weather is particularly bad.

In this case, the difference between opening the takeout service or not is not big, and it will not increase Cheng Zhu's income. After all, the limit of cups per day is there.

However, Pomelo Tea’s stores will expand wildly in the second half of the year.

First- and second-tier cities are so big, and there are only a few stores in each city, which is not enough coverage.

What's more, the consumption power of the young people's market will become higher and higher, and they will also enter third-tier cities in the future.

"Once the number of stores increases, they will not be so saturated, and takeaways will have to keep up."

"And it's 2015, so it's an excellent time to enter the platform. All the major platforms are thinking about expansion, and they haven't yet reached the stage of cutting off the business."

He doesn't think the capital behind the food delivery platform can endure for long. He doesn't believe they will stay put. These capitals have their own layouts, just like Zhao Long of Shendu Capital invested in a food delivery platform and then invested in Yuecha.

"The path he is taking now is actually a bit like the path taken by [Longzhu Capital] later."

For Cheng Zhu, the third brother [Baidu Takeaway] who was beaten to death because of a fight between the eldest and second brothers is completely out of consideration.

"[Mi Tuan Takeaway] and [Are You Elephant] are actually OK in the past few years, and both are in the stage of explosive development."

"Anyway, I have only been doing the high-end Internet celebrity milk tea business for a few years. The different situations of these two platforms after many years can be ignored."

"But they actually have their own advantages and disadvantages." Cheng Zhu is clear about this. He is a young man who has experienced the stage of [Takeaway War].

Before the [Thousand Group War], he was still young and his relationship with him was not very good. [Takeaway War] is a real impact on personal life and is closely related to young consumers.

Later, he studied these two platforms and had a basic idea in his mind. In fact, he personally preferred one of the two platforms.

However, he didn't need to make a decision so quickly.

"Because I am now choosing the capital behind it, not the platform."

"There is actually an optimal solution here!" Cheng Zhu thought that since the news that Youcha was going to conduct a second round of financing was sent out, it can be said that the entire capital market was shaken.

There are already two contact processes in the [Top Ten Venture Capitals].

Even Shendu Capital sent someone to contact us!

This matter made Shen Minglang very excited, and he went to Lao Shen again to show his presence.

"See, we were not arrogant before, and we were not bragging at all!'

"Shendu Capital also wanted to invest in our Youcha, they couldn't help it! "

But Cheng Zhu is still patient.

Finally, yesterday, May 11, his favorite capital came to him - Red Mountain Capital (China).

Red Mountain Capital, an investment institution that has been ranked first on the "Hurun Global Unicorn Active Investment Institutions Top 100" for several times!

Its status in the capital world is beyond doubt and no need to say more!

Getting its investment is like throwing a blockbuster bomb to the business world!

Because its style is different, the shocking effect caused by the financing information when it is released will be completely different.

But this is not what Cheng Zhu values ​​most.

"What is most useful to me now is the capital behind the food delivery platform. "

"And Red Mountain Capital is very special here. "

"Yue Dongyi probably doesn't want me to contact Red Mountain Capital the most. With his business vision, he has definitely seen through everything! ”

“As for why Red Mountain Capital is special, “Because it invested in both [Mi Tuan] and [Ele.me]!”

In 2010, Red Mountain Capital participated in Mi Tuan’s Series A financing. In 2011, in the Series B financing, it and Alibaba invested another $50 million in Mi Tuan.

And in 2014, the $300 million financing that Mi Tuan received still included money from Red Mountain Capital! “

“In January of this year, Mi Tuan had completed its Series D financing, and its valuation at this stage had reached a terrifying $7 billion. “

“Interestingly, Red Mountain also invested in [Ele.me] in 2013 and January of this year. "

That is to say, in the 15-year food delivery war, these two platforms have been burning money from the same venture capital institution!

It seems like one's left hand is fighting the right hand, but it is not.

There are many influencing factors here.

For example, the focus of [Mi Tuan] was not on food delivery at the beginning, but [Are You Hungry] was different. It focused on food delivery from the beginning.

However, these are not what Cheng Zhu needs to consider now.

He only knows that he can't find a better choice than Red Mountain Capital!

Today, Wang Zeng, the managing director of Red Mountain Capital, will come to Hangzhou to discuss relevant matters with Cheng Zhu.

Cheng Zhu had heard of this person in his previous life and met him once.

This person is known as the best investor in China's consumption.

Before meeting in this life, he specifically checked this guy's information and immediately understood why he came to Hangzhou.

Wang Zeng was previously at Tiantu Capital He was originally a partner, and then chose to resign in 2014 and joined Hongshan.

He is currently the best candidate to get involved in the pomelo tea business.

Because his past achievements include the existence of [Zhou Hei Ya].

It can even be said that without Wang Zeng, [Zhou Hei Ya] would not have been able to achieve its current level. In Cheng Zhu's memory, this person later invested in [Lyulume], [Baiguoyuan], [Xiaoyang Lactic Acid Bacteria], etc.

He mainly invests in such consumer brands.

It is estimated that many people have seen this bald head on Douyin, sitting there with a strong aura and talking freely. This bald head is now selling courses.

When Pulin Capital heard that Hongshan Capital was coming, Yue Dongyi couldn't sit still and said that he would come over too.

But the old-fashioned king said: "I just happened to go to Hangzhou to see Jingjing, so I came to join in the fun."

Cheng Zhu complained in his heart: "Does Yue Lingjing know that your uncle is coming? "

So at 2pm, there were five people sitting in the meeting room, and Cheng Zhu also called Shen Minglang and Shen Qingning.

In fact, these people are currently the main objects of Cheng Zhu's second round of financing.

It was obvious that Yue Dongyi and Wang Zeng knew each other. They looked familiar to each other, but whether they were real or fake, Cheng Zhu didn't know.

Generally speaking, although Wang Zeng comes from Red Mountain Capital, he is now the managing director, and he is still not as good as Yuedong Yiniu.

For Yue Dongyi, who is known as an investment genius, if it is the boss of Hongshan, he may be a little weak, but if it is you, a guy who just changed jobs and went to Hongshan not long ago, it will be different.

And whether it is Lao Yue or Cheng Zhu, they are very clear in their hearts: "This person just went to Hongshan not long ago, and he must want to make a difference this year!"

Pomelo tea is undoubtedly an excellent choice!

Otherwise, according to this person's investment style, he actually prefers to participate in the first round of financing and start investing from that time, rather than participating in Pomelo Tea's second round of financing like now.

Therefore, Yue Dongyi joked at the beginning: "Old Wang, don't you only like the first round of financing? How do I remember that you just said this to the media some time ago?"

Wang Zeng didn't answer the question at all and said with a smile: "It's not just me who pays attention to pomelo tea. In fact, many people in Hongshan have been paying attention to pomelo tea. I am just the representative today, hahaha!"

The bald man laughed heartily, while Yue Dongyi smiled faintly.

After everyone sat down in the conference room, Shen Minglang looked quite nervous, and it was visible to the naked eye.

On the contrary, although Shen Qingning, who has a cold temperament, participated in this kind of thing for the first time, her face was calm and calm, and she still maintained the attitude that a wealthy flower in the world should have.

Cheng Zhu actually hadn't seen Ning Ning for a while.

Today, Shen Qingning was dressed more formally, wearing a women's suit with a silk shirt underneath and a few pearls embellishment on the collar.

Both she and Chen Jieyu are suitable for wearing some workplace-style clothes, but they will show different aesthetics after wearing them.

This is related to their different temperaments.

Of course, there is also the body shape.

Counselor Miaomiao's astonishingly proportioned hips, and Shen Qingning's long legs. The most interesting thing is that Ningning also wore a pair of glasses in today's outfit.

It's just that it's not gold-rimmed glasses, but rimless glasses.

After wearing these glasses, the cold aura on her body actually became stronger, giving people a great sense of distance.

'It can be seen that Ning Ning has dressed up well today, her outfits are very well matched, her makeup is full, and her hair has been specially curled. "Cheng Zhu thought to himself.

As for the specific reasons, he actually knew it.

Today’s temporary protagonist must be Cheng Zhu, the founder of Pomelo Tea.

Facing the two big guys in the capital circle, the young man acted very relaxed and said with a smile: "The rules of the world, you must make a PPT to attract investment."

After Cheng Zhu opened the PPT, he began to talk in a very organized manner.

He started with the current situation of Pomelo Tea. To put it simply, he wanted to tell everyone how awesome Pomelo Tea is now, so you should quickly invest in me!

After the bragging session is over, we start talking about the future, commonly known as painting cakes.

In the process, Cheng Zhu deliberately mentioned the current situation of the food delivery platform. This sentence was specifically mentioned to Yue Dongyi and Wang Zeng, two big guys in the investment circle, and they all said in unison: "Sure enough!"

This guy has sharp eyes, it seems he has already set his sights on takeout!

Judging from his series of operations and layout, he may have focused on food delivery platforms earlier than many people in the capital market and paid attention to them earlier!

Is it possible that while everyone was still paying attention to group buying, he was already paying attention and preparing his own back-up plan along the way?

Yue Dongyi was still thinking: "It seems that my initial thinking was right. The reason why this kid is willing to contact Hongshan is not just because of its fame and strength!"

"He just values ​​the added value! He has already seen through it!"

For the Nth time, he thought: "This guy is like me!"

No, this guy beat me!

This veteran forced king asked himself, when he was Cheng Zhu's age, he couldn't reach this level.

What made him feel even more numb was that his family was not ordinary. His parents were great people, but Cheng Zhu really came from an ordinary family!

At this age, Yue Dongyi has begun to understand that his achievements are inseparable from his background.

Whether it is the starting point of capital, vision, or educational level, these are all affected. "In this era, it is extremely difficult for a poor family to produce a noble son!" Yue Dongyi's eyes darkened. What's more, in fact, even in ancient times, poor families did not refer to Poor people and ordinary people refer to families with lower status and influence. Only now do they begin to refer to families with poor family backgrounds. Therefore, the so-called noble son from a poor family actually did not include ordinary people at all when it was born!

He and Wang Zeng kept listening to Cheng Zhu's talk, and they felt more and more that this young man was speaking from a different height and perspective from ordinary people.

"In fact, the future prospects of the entire domestic milk tea industry are quite good, and I believe it will be better than everyone's current expectations." Cheng Zhudao.

“On the one hand, this has something to do with the explosive development of the food delivery industry.”

"On the other hand, it is the upgrade of young people's consumption power."

‘Of course, what’s more important is the change in demand. "

"Let me give you an example."

“There are definitely more people sitting in offices now than before, and the number is getting more and more every year. "

The number of people engaged in mental work is increasing year by year. "

The main employment direction for young people in the future is actually to go to work and work part-time.

"Work like a cow or a horse in society, and be a [cow or horse]. "He said in a deep voice.

This is actually not a good thing to say.

But everyone present is actually capital!

If ordinary people heard Cheng Zhu's next words, they would feel even more heartbroken, but this is a real fact.

This is how the world is: [cows] and [horses] know to rest when they are tired, but [cows and horses] will order themselves a cup of coffee or milk tea when they are tired."

(ps: two-in-one, originally more than 7,000 words, streamlined a part, asking for monthly tickets.)
