Chapter 812: Chapter 534: Cheng Zhu, Worthy?
“That’s hilarious, should I work at your investnt [Paipai]?”
“Now that would be interesting.”
Shang Qi placed his hand on the mouse as his computer’s QQ kept buzzing.
He opened a QQ group, where there weren’t many mbers—just so people from Shanghai’s venture capital circle. Although they weren’t on the level of Yue Dongyi, they were still quite influential.
At this mont, the group was hotly discussing Ele’s F-round funding.
“The new entrants are really strong.”
“For top-level ventures, it’s normal.”
“I went to negotiate, and their attitude was very calm.”
“Personally, I actually have more confidence in ituan; Zhang Xuhao is still inexperienced.”
“I can understand everything else, but it’s normal for a company like Hualian Shares that runs supermarkets to get a slice. They can expand Ele’s channels and new retail business, but what’s up with this Cheng Zhu!”
Shang Qi’s eyes focused on the words Cheng Zhu, and they narrowed slightly.
He started typing on the keyboard: “Is it the Cheng Zhu from Youu Tea?”
“Yeah, we checked from the side, and it’s him!”
This made the partner at Tianyun Capital furrow his brows involuntarily.
Just a mont ago, he thought Cheng Zhu, this university student, wasn’t qualified enough.
Wen Ting leaned over to look at his computer screen, and her serene and gentle face suddenly showed endless astonishnt.
She herself is a finance woman who worked in a venture capital firm as a manager in Hang City.
Therefore, she is also very clear on what it ans for Cheng Zhu to invest in Ele!
At this table, the main seat belongs to Little Ma, who is Tencent!
How many investors have tried to get in touch with Ele, only to return empty-handed?
This ans that the na Cheng Zhu will spread throughout the investnt world today, becoming a hot topic among countless investors!
In the minds of many investors, thoughts similar to Shang Qi might pop up:
“I don’t even qualify for a piece, so what makes Cheng Zhu so special?!”
…
…
The F-round funding of [Ele] can be said to be big news.
Currently, the three major takeout platforms are all highly sought after, after all, they’re behind the battle of [BAT]!
With Baidu, Alibaba, and Tencent all stepping in, the prospects are imaginable.
The headlines of major finance news outlets were all occupied by [Ele], and the funding even made it onto Weibo’s trending topics.
The na Cheng Zhu stood out in the news, and it’s precisely because of its anomaly that it’s incredibly eye-catching!
Honestly, Ele raised a total of $630 million this ti.
Within this $630 million, Cheng Zhu only took up a re $20 million after all; he just wanted a ticket to the ga. For such a top-tier venture, none of the forces were willing to give him much.
This $20 million was actually just… a side dish?
Yet, when the news broke, the most eye-catching thing was still him!
No choice, the hype was too good, too easy to exploit.
Like just turned nineteen, and only in his second year of college… all these were great hype.
What does this tell us?
— You’ve gotta show off as early as possible!
When the sa thing is done by soone in their thirties versus soone not even twenty, the level of shock it brings is simply not the sa!
The ones most concerned about [Ele]’s developnts are, of course, the other two major takeout platforms.
Baidu Takeout’s CEO Gong Zhenbin couldn’t help but be a bit speechless when he saw it.
“No wonder after talking with Zhang Xuhao, he didn’t even bother to talk to us Baidu!”
“At first, I thought they looked down on us mighty Baidu!”
“Goodness, didn’t expect Zhang Xuhao to actually allow him to buy in!”
This condition, he certainly couldn’t et, and his say in the company isn’t as big as Zhang Xuhao’s in Ele.
Moreover, Baidu’s Mr. Li had once boasted about throwing out 20 billion just for fun!
Look how impressive that is!
Gong Zhenbin ca to two conclusions after seeing the news.
“I don’t know what Zhang Xuhao is thinking.”
“It’s not that Cheng Zhu looks down on my Baidu Takeout!”
anwhile, Wang Xin and Murong Jun sat on the office sofa, staring at each other.
With the deep ties between [Ele] and Hualian, they needed to have a serious eting to discuss a follow-up strategy to respond.
The other newly introduced capitals cannot be underestimated, and those who can get a slice are all giant forces!
But as for Cheng Zhu, it’s just a bit inexplicable.
Yet this result just proves how ridiculous, how nauseatingly appetiteless the big dreams he painted for Cheng Zhu back then were!
Wang Xin: I want this guy under my platform!
Cheng Zhu: I want shares in the platform!
“What’s Zhang Xuhao up to?” Murong Jun felt deeply puzzled.
“I also think it’s unnecessary; is it really necessary to go this far?” Wang Xin frowned deeply.
With his ambition, even Alibaba wanting more shares isn’t sothing he liked, let alone a re Cheng Zhu!
In the end, everyone thought this matter was outrageous because they all felt: Is Cheng Zhu even worthy?
“Forget it, there’s no point in overthinking this, let’s just assu Zhang Xuhao got carried away in his competition with us over [Youu Tea] and [Ming Tea].”
“Anyway, it’s not the first ti he’s done sothing impulsive.” Wang Xin chuckled softly.
He turned to his right-hand man Murong Jun and continued, “The most important thing now is to carry out our current plans smoothly.”
“Do we need to make changes?” Murong Jun asked.
“Yes, in response to Ele’s funding, we need to ramp up spending even more, to show that even if they’ve raised money, we also aren’t worried about funds!” Wang Xin replied.
