Chapter 765: Chapter 514: The Layout for the Next 10 Years_2
Once, Ele required entrepreneurial experience, capital, and direction… all heated with passion.
They had nothing, it was rely passion!
Otherwise, they wouldn’t have asked frontline employees to learn combat during the “Takeout Wars.” Damn, all that passion!
From the beginning, the team followed the route of collegiate entrepreneurship competitions, securing their first bucket of gold through this channel.
For Xuhao, Ele was his first entrepreneurship project.
Compared to the seasoned entrepreneur Wang Xin, he obviously appeared much greener.
To be precise, before the “Takeout Wars,” Wang Xin had even reached out to Xuhao, looking to acquire Ele.
Acquisition? Hilarious!
It was all about the damn passion!
Both parties slamd the table—and when they couldn’t reach an agreent, they fought!
Unfortunately, the Ele team was primarily composed of students and faced nurous issues in managent and strategic deploynt.
On the other hand, ituan had just erged victorious from the brutal “Thousand Group Wars” and had many business tricks up its sleeve!
Subsequently, ituan Takeout showed potential to overtake and had been nibbling away at the takeout market since 2014, which gave Xuhao a real headache as he didn’t know how to break through.
It was clear that ituan used to focus on group deals while they were solely dedicated to takeout!
This situation was indeed frustrating, enough to quench the fiercest passions.
Fortunately, in January of this year, Tencent extended an olive branch to Xuhao.
Little Ma, with one hand holding Jingdong and the other holding Dianping, along with having offended Red Mountain Capital, jointly invested $350 million in Ele.
Of course, the money wasn’t the most important thing.
The help Tencent could offer would definitely not just be financial!
With Tencent’s support, Xuhao’s passion was reignited!
“Passion!!!”
Damn it, destroy Wang Xin!
One good thing about student soldiers is their youthful fearlessness, not afraid of heaven or earth.
This was evident not only among the managent but also in the field promotions.
Competing for market share and for takeout rchants was the main task every day.
And one rchant, in particular, was very dazzling this year.
—Cheng Zhu!
Among all the internet-famous restaurants, he was now the most famous, the most successful, and the most cunning!
Ele didn’t make it to Weibo’s hot search as often as Youu Tea did!
In Xuhao’s heart, he couldn’t hide his admiration for Cheng Zhu.
The reason was simple—he was a college student.
Young people starting businesses with dreams will inevitably face many difficulties and hurdles along the way.
So troubles and incidents occur simply because you’re young!
So people disregard you just because you look naive.
So don’t listen to you because you’re young.
So aim to trip you up and benefit from your inexperience.
Ultimately, this world isn’t controlled by the young.
Xuhao knew the struggle of starting a business in college and the hardships of the journey.
“Youu Tea has achieved so much in such a short ti, way more badass than I was initially,” he said, opening his eyes, no longer resting, and pushed his glasses up as he looked out the window.
Nowadays, every takeout platform is eager to secure Youu Tea exclusively.
Today, Xuhao personally ca to show the greatest sincerity.
“We are both young, we should get along and won’t lack common topics,” he thought.
“If all else fails, we can talk about gaming!” thought the forr gaming enthusiast.
As long as he could shorten the distance, negotiations would be easier afterward.
eting Cheng Zhu, Xuhao’s first thought was surprisingly, “He is indeed handso.”
Xuhao was a bit chubby and had a naive smile when he laughed, which, in terms of appearance and deanor, made him completely different from Cheng Zhu.
After a warm handshake, they made small talk as they walked into the company.
Cheng Zhu actively suggested showing Xuhao around Youu Tea, to which he naturally nodded in agreent.
After a brief tour, Xuhao felt even more that Cheng Zhu was a kindred spirit.
The reason was simple, the team at Youu Tea was also predominantly young.
The overall atmosphere in the company was quite good and not oppressive.
“Mr. Cheng, Youu Tea has a really nice work atmosphere,” he said sincerely.
“Right? I think so too,” Cheng Zhu responded frankly.
Hearing this, Xuhao’s face showed his trademark naive smile, finding the younger man quite interesting.
This is how relaxed conversations between young people should be!
After they sat down in Cheng Zhu’s office, Cheng Zhu didn’t opt for serving tea but asked, “Coke or Sprite?”
“Coke, make it cold!” Xuhao imdiately answered.
When Cheng Zhu took the Coke from the fridge, Xuhao joked, “I thought Mr. Cheng would prepare so Youu Tea for .”
“We have it. I was thinking you could order whatever you wanted when you arrived, and by the ti we finish talking, you could take it with you to drink on your way back,” he replied.
“Okay, then let it be grapefruit with extra pulp,” Xuhao took the opportunity to bridge the gap, saying, “Actually, I’ve bought Youu Tea several tis, I also like Cheese Mixed Berries, but my favorite is the grapefruit with extra pulp.”
The two talked for a while longer before they finally got down to business.
