Jingzhou, downstairs of Dream Venture Capital.
Meng Chang put away his mobile phone, his face still had a plain expression. The city was so deep that no one could see his true emotions.
On the way here, Meng Chang has been eating melon.
This weekend, the story that Mr. Pei went to the Magic City alone and defeated the Longyu Group and ioi has been widely circulated on the Internet. There is no doubt that the circle has been broken.
Although Meng Chang was not interested in the field of e-sports at all, because it concerned Mr. Pei, he did not dare to neglect it and paid serious attention to it.
The more you understand the results, the more amazing they become!
Meng Chang carefully analyzed Mr. Pei’s operations in this ioi qualifying competition and found that Mr. Pei really had no plans and made no mistakes at all. Every step he took was in line with Longyu Group’s Front.
What’s even more amazing is that there are many steps in Mr. Pei’s entire plan that seem to have a lot of luck.
One coincidence can be said to be luck, but what about many coincidences?
If this is all Mr. Pei’s fault, then Mr. Pei is very scary, which shows that his ability to strategize has exceeded the imagination of most people;
If this is not Mr. Pei’s fault Okay, it's all luck, but Mr. Pei is even more terrible, because it shows that his luck is against the heavens.
You cannot mess with a person who is full of ideas, because he will use his IQ gap to push you to the ground and rub you; a person who is unlucky, you cannot mess with him, because once you mess with him, you will not be messed with. If you let him go, bad things may happen to you.
It is precisely because Mr. Pei is so famous and has so many famous scenes that many timid swindlers stay away from him and do not dare to get involved.
Who doesn’t know that Mr. Pei is unparalleled in his ingenuity and has a clear distinction between love and hate?
With so many lessons learned from the past, even big companies like Dayak Group and Longyu Group can't handle it. How dare ordinary Xiao Xiao dare to stroke Mr. Pei's tiger's beard.
Meng Chang is in a similar state now, feeling very guilty!
He initially took money from Dream Venture Capital simply because the money from Dream Venture Capital was the best.
But during this period, from the press conference, to the dispatch of finance, to Mr. Pei’s pursuit of investment some time ago... Meng Chang felt more and more that things were not that simple.
I always felt that on the surface, Mr. Pei seemed not to pay attention to the cold-faced girl at all, but secretly he saw everything clearly, and all the little tricks did not escape Mr. Pei's eyes.
But the problem is that Meng Chang has already reached this point.
If he had known that the final situation would develop to the current situation, then Meng Chang might have chosen not to take Mr. Pei's money from the beginning.
But now, the Cold Noodle Girl’s store has opened, its popularity has increased, and its valuation has continued to rise. Meng Chang has also been doing everything possible to contact major capital, and he is only a few steps away from his final goal. A close call.
For Meng Chang,It is impossible to give up at this time.
Just like a gambler, all the chips have been put on the table and the cards in his hand are good. At this time, it is absolutely impossible to give up without seeing the opponent's hole card.
Since the inexplicable own incident last week, the situation of the cold-faced girl has undergone some changes.
Last week, Meng Chang originally made an appointment with some investors to inspect the Cold Noodle Girl’s store. However, he didn’t know what the specific situation was. Suddenly, the store’s kitchen had frequent problems, and it was difficult for the investors to inspect it. People were left with a very bad impression, and a sure investment fell through.
Of course, these investors will not be completely dismissive of the cold noodle girl just because of such a big deal as the kitchen, but once their psychological expectations are discounted, the investment conditions they will be given will naturally become more Harsh.
Meng Chang did not accept these harsh conditions at all, so the two sides entered a stalemate again.
On the surface, the two sides are evenly matched, but in fact, all the pressure is on Meng Chang's side.
The investors have money in their hands and it doesn’t matter how long they want to wait and see, but Meng Chang is burning money all the time!
He had increased his money-burning efforts before, booking venues to hold lectures, and conducting various marketing activities. The cold-faced girl liked to mention hot searches every now and then, and his popularity became higher and higher.
But these are all maintained by burning money.
Once the money is burned out, the cold-faced girl will reveal her true colors.
And Meng Chang cannot slow down the pace of burning money, because once the popularity drops, investors will be more suspicious of the true situation of the cold-faced girl.
So, Meng Chang must continue to find money, otherwise the cold-faced girl's capital chain will become very dangerous.
After much deliberation, I still had no choice but to come to Mr. Pei.
Meng Chang can feel that the attitude of most investors has been very relaxed. As long as Mr. Pei gives another sum of money and the cold-faced girl continues to support it for a while, she can definitely get help from other investors. Get more money and the game can continue to be played.
However, after all, Mr. Pei had just given six million, less than half a month.
Meng Chang was a little worried that he was burning money too fast and might make Mr. Pei unhappy.
So, after being fully prepared, Meng Chang decided to come to Jingzhou in person to convince Mr. Pei face to face.
He has carefully prepared the PPT, and at the same time, he has also worked hard to turn the data of the two stores of Cold Noodle Girl into profits.
For example, use a longer depreciation period for various store assets, and allocate more costs later, or use word games to exclude part of the marketing expenditure from the cost, so that in the future Judging from the PPT, Cold Noodle Girl is in a very healthy profit state and has a bright future.
Coupled with the current brand awareness, recognition, hot search index and other data of Cold Noodle Girl, in short, it appears to be impeccable in all aspects.
And strictly speaking, Meng Chang doesn’t count.He was lying. He did use the correct numbers, but he modified and processed them when speaking on the PPT. Coupled with his own words, it was easy to mislead.
Of course Meng Chang didn't think he could deceive Mr. Pei 100%. He was not so arrogant.
But Meng Chang felt that he could at least give it a try. He used real data, and Mr. Pei was more or less aware of the cold noodle girl's financial situation. Meng Chang himself had never thought of a way to get kickbacks from the cold noodle girl, and he only thought about inflating the valuation and cashing out.
Even if Mr. Pei is dissatisfied with this, at most he will not continue to invest. Can he still disrupt it on the spot?
This possibility is very small.
So, Meng Chang came to Jingzhou after being fully prepared and decided to give it a try.
Upstairs at Yuanmeng Venture Capital, Meng Chang met He Desheng and the two shook hands cordially.
"Wait a moment, Mr. Pei has agreed to see you, but he has just returned from the Magic City and is on his way over." He Desheng said.
Meng Chang nodded quickly: "Of course, Mr. Pei will give me this opportunity despite his busy schedule, and I will definitely perform well!"
He Desheng didn't say much, so Tea was served, and the two of them chatted in the reception room while waiting for Mr. Pei's arrival.
About half an hour later, Mr. Pei arrived.
Meng Chang hurriedly stepped forward with an attentive attitude: "Mr. Pei! Welcome to your triumphant return from the devil's capital! The legendary deeds of a small boat traveling a thousand miles and a million soldiers dismantling uniforms are really admirable. !”
Although Meng Chang has been taking money from Mr. Pei for several months, he has never had a chance to communicate with Mr. Pei face to face.
It can only be said that Meng Chang's level was too low before, and it was not worth Mr. Pei's time to meet.
But now, as the valuation of the cold-faced girl is getting higher and higher, her performance can be said to be outstanding among the companies invested by Yuanmeng Venture Capital, and she has gradually gained the favor and attention of Mr. Pei.
So, when Meng Chang met Mr. Pei, he was generous with his kind words.
In his opinion, President Pei rushed to the Magic City to attend the meeting alone and defeated the Longyu Group without spending a single soldier. This should be something to be very proud of.
As the saying goes, don’t hit someone with a smiling face. Many people say that they don’t like to flatter someone, but if flattery feels comfortable, who would be unhappy?
However, what Meng Chang didn't expect was that Mr. Pei's expression suddenly dropped. If he had a relatively indifferent attitude just now, he was obviously a little unhappy now.
Meng Chang couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart, secretly thinking that it was not good.
What's going on? Did I say the wrong thing?
Can’t?
Meng Chang felt extremely puzzled. It was just an ordinary compliment, but Mr. Pei didn’t like to hear it?
The corners of Pei Qian's mouth twitched slightly, and the more he looked at Meng Chang, the more he felt displeased.
I just came back from the magic city, and my anger hasn’t gone away yet, so it hurt me again.Put salt in your mouth!
But Pei Qian was a tolerant person after all, so he didn't say much and just entered the reception room with Meng Chang and He Desheng.
While Pei Qian was still on the high-speed train, He Desheng had already called to report, saying that Meng Chang had arrived in Jingzhou and hoped to report the current situation of the cold-faced girl in person.
Pei Qian agreed immediately without thinking too much. After all, he had been paying attention to the cold-faced girl before, and was very worried that one day the cold-faced girl would suddenly start making profits, allowing him to make a lot of money. Always ready to run away.
But Meng Chang knew nothing about this, and thought that Mr. Pei agreed so simply because he must be particularly optimistic about the cold-faced girl, and he couldn't help but feel more confident.
He Desheng played the PPT on the projector, and Meng Chang briefly worked up his emotions before starting his performance.
"Mr. Pei, I came to Jingzhou specifically this time mainly to report good news to you! The Cold Noodle Girl store has turned a profit! Although we cannot yet say that this business model will be successful, but this definitely represents a solid step forward for the Cold Noodle Girl brand on the road to success."
Pei Qian held the tea cup and was about to take a sip of tea to moisten his throat. He brought it to his mouth and stopped.
"Has it turned a profit? So quickly?" Pei Qian's voice was filled with surprise and horror.
Seeing Mr. Pei’s reaction, Meng Chang couldn’t help but feel happy.
Mr. Pei’s reaction was great, which means there is something going on!
He hurriedly continued: "Yes, Mr. Pei, you can very intuitively see the current situation of the cold-faced girl from this chart. Our current financial situation is very healthy. As long as we continue to expand investment, You will definitely get huge returns..."
Meng Chang was very well prepared and even made the data into various bar charts and pie charts, which were intuitive and clear at a glance.
Pei Qian looked at He Desheng suspiciously and asked, "Are these data...accurate?"
He Desheng hesitated and nodded.
Although these operations by Meng Chang to forcefully create profits are a bit outrageous, most companies will do similar operations in order to make their financial reports attractive, and it is not considered fraud.
Mr. Pei asked if these data were accurate, but did not ask anything else. Of course, He Desheng answered truthfully, and the data were indeed accurate.
Seeing Mr. Pei’s reaction, Meng Chang was instantly filled with blood and was ready to show off his skills.
It seems that as long as you perform well today, you will definitely win the favor of Mr. Pei, and it will not be a problem to get several million more investments!
However, just as Meng Chang was about to continue speaking, he saw Mr. Pei raising his hand to stop him.
"Okay, you don't need to talk anymore."
Pei Qian turned to look at He Desheng: "Sell all the shares in the cold noodle girl in our hands!"
