Chapter 643: Chapter 462 Mr. Shen ets Cheng Zhu_2
“Sure, okay.”
After breakfast, Chen Jieyu needed to go to school.
Cheng Zhu volunteered to take her.
As usual, the two took the secretive route and planned to drop her off at a hidden spot.
“This can’t always be the solution,” Cheng Zhu thought as he sat in the driver’s seat, looking at the counselor’s back.
“It’s inconvenient and unsafe.”
But for the wealthy, this kind of problem is actually quite easy to solve.
“Hilarious, just buy her a car!”
This wealthy student from Technology University imdiately turned the steering wheel and drove straight to a car dealership, where he picked up a white rcedes.
He would put the car in his own na and then give it to Chen Jieyu for her use.
This wasn’t because Cheng Zhu was stingy, since a rcedes C-class wasn’t that much money.
People in Hang City don’t hesitate to buy hos, so why fret over the cost of a car?
The main problem was the counselor’s personality.
If it were his lover Yiyi, Cheng Zhu would have brought her along to choose, and Yiyi would have been excited, continuously saying how good he was to her.
She understood Cheng Zhu’s character, that by graciously accepting, he would feel the joy of giving.
Chen Jieyu, however, was both proud and insecure, making it difficult for her to accept such an expensive gift.
Just giving her the car to use would make things much easier.
Also, for future expenses like car insurance, Cheng Zhu could pay them himself, easing her burden.
Additionally, he had his own reasons for choosing a white rcedes.
He felt the price was just right. Buying a better car might bring unnecessary troubles for her.
“I’m still the most considerate,” Cheng Zhu complinted himself, feeling fantastic.
…
…
In the afternoon, Cheng Zhu saw a news piece that indirectly confird the reliability of the information Shen Minglang had received.
The news about Yue Tea’s second round of funding was wildly reported by various dia outlets, and so finance marketing accounts were also discussing it extensively.
So marketing accounts, whether they were paid or just seeking attention, kept saying Yue Tea had overtaken Youu Tea in a shortcut, both in fundraising amounts and valuation!
Indeed, that was the truth.
After Yue Tea’s funding round, both the amount raised and the valuation significantly exceeded those of Youu Tea.
Their tactics in this regard were evidently strategic!
Youu Tea had indeed been quiet recently, only continuously releasing new products.
Yue Tea wrapping up a huge second round of funding so quickly was like a bombshell in the capital market!
Let alone in the small bubble tea industry.
With this news, traditional bubble tea giants like Brother Xiong felt that they might really be left behind by the tis.
“Just funded a hundred million, and now funding over two hundred million so quickly?”
“With that much cash in hand, how can I compete with her!”
“This is even more exaggerated than Youu Tea back then!”
“Do venture capitalists really favor these trendy bubble teas that much?”
After reading the news, Brother Xiong from Mo Tea silently smoked a cigarette.
He felt like the entire industry had changed drastically in less than a year.
The revered figure in the bubble tea world, Brother Xiong, now felt demoted to just Xiongzai.
He sensed that he had aged.
“I don’t understand it anymore.”
In the capital circle, many people began to discuss whether Yue Tea might aim for an IPO!
“If they really go public, that will be the first bubble tea stock!”
“I really didn’t expect the small bubble tea industry to suddenly beco this hot.”
“I checked, Yue Tea’s numbers are actually quite impressive.”
“There might actually be a chance for an IPO in the future!”
The news of the funding made Chen Yue the most celebrated person for the mont.
Her previous gloominess vanished entirely.
Last night, she had even rewarded herself with twenty minutes using Persistent Visit headphones!
Recently, she had been outperford by Youu Tea in new product releases and marketing, her carefully crafted persona and confidence in her appearance greatly undermined by netizens.
Now, her hypothetical enemy wasn’t just Cheng Zhu; Shen Qingning was also on the list.
“You think you’re a rich and beautiful woman?”
“I co from a rich background too!”
“Besides, you’re just a minor shareholder in Youu Tea, and I’m the founder of Yue Tea!”
She always believed that the song request at the concert venue was pre-arranged.
Thus, she didn’t think Shen Qingning had much business acun, considering her just soone who traded on her looks.
“We won need to be independent and strong!”
“Still stirring up a fake romance with Cheng Zhu online!”
“With so many people online shipping you two, can you even marry soone else in the future?”
“What a joke!”
“But really, a guy from below and a girl who sells her face, a perfect match indeed.”
For Chen Yue, Yue Tea securing funding ahead of schedule and shaking the whole capital and bubble tea industry constituted a triumphant day.
“How many won in the country could achieve what I have at this age?” she thought proudly.
Of course, she also knew that Youu Tea would eventually undergo a second round of funding smoothly, unlike her situation where Shendu Capital increasingly dominated the conversation.
“But the point is, being a step ahead in the market ans staying steps ahead!”
