The Birth of Shanghai's First Conglomerate

Chapter 148 The Game of Capital

"what's the situation?"

"Who would make such a big fuss?"

Inside the university, people coming and going were discussing it animatedly.

Although luxury cars often park at the school gate to pick up female college students after class.

But such a scene has never happened before.

This guy is definitely a big, generous boss.

I don't know who it is, but they're definitely very rich.

"Is Chu Qiuyan being kept by someone?"

"You're talking nonsense, didn't you see the banner?"

"The commoner school beauty is no longer a commoner after all. My heart has shattered to the bottom once again."

Many people instinctively moved away from the person speaking, because the speaker was a short-haired girl who was quite handsome.

Her hobby is probably niche.

Unexpectedly, this ordinary school beauty not only manages to charm men, but she also doesn't spare any girls.

That's outrageous, absolutely outrageous.

"I was wondering why the Bobo Milk Tea shop outside the school wasn't open today. Turns out it was acquired for five million."

"What's going on? Such a tiny shop, it's worth five million?"

It spread all over the school's intranet.

This big news became the headline news on the entire school.

"That's superficial. You think they're going to spend five million to buy the shop? They're clearly going to spend five million to buy Chu Qiuyan herself."

"Sigh~ Look at them, they're already millionaires before they even graduate. My grand ambitions are doomed to stay home and inherit their fortunes."

"Damn it, you know how to be filial."

Many people envied him, but unfortunately, Chen Pingsheng didn't stay long at all, and then Zhao Feifei and Chu Qiuyan left.

He hadn't driven his Maybach S680 for a while, but it still had all the necessary business functions.

Sitting up there, you can't hear a single sound from outside.

Just like that mobile home.

Chen Pingsheng drove himself and took out a document from his hand, saying, "From today onwards, your Bobo Milk Tea will officially belong to our Tenghui Capital. The angel round investment is 30 million, which was jointly completed by Tenghui and Shanghai Honglan Capital."

"You two, Chu Qiuyan holds 12% of the shares, and Zhao Feifei, you personally hold 3% of the shares."

"If there are no objections, we can sign a formal contract at the company."

"That big shot."

Zhao Feifei asked curiously, "May I ask if there's a Series A round after this angel round investment? And what kind of company is Honglan Capital?"

"Honglan Capital was founded by one of my classmates; she's quite capable."

Chen Pingsheng said, "Her name only appears in financial news. You will have the opportunity to meet her in Shanghai when you become a big company. The reason for bringing in her investment is mainly to facilitate the later development and financing of your Bobo Milk Tea."

"Boss, do you guys want to turn Bobo Milk Tea into a listed company?"

Zhao Feifei felt that this idea was too far-fetched, and she could hardly believe that she would have the opportunity to become one of the original major shareholders of a listed company.

Chen Pingsheng laughed and said, "If we don't go public, are we just going to rely on selling a cup of milk tea to make a net profit of one or two yuan? Then tell me, is there any point in me doing this?"

Zhao Feifei was speechless, but then she thought about it and realized it made sense.

The uncle is already so rich, so simply opening dozens of milk tea shops really doesn't mean anything to him.

Why not open another Shuiyunjian branch? That would make even more money.

People who do this are aiming to make a few small fortunes.

Otherwise, why bother with all that effort?

It can only be said that their age limits their imagination.

The two of them simply couldn't figure out how to bring Bobo Milk Tea to market.

However, it wasn't until I arrived at Teng Hui's headquarters that I understood what the efficiency of a large corporation truly meant.

Lin Jia directly showcased the changes in the domestic milk tea industry over the past decade on PTT.

It is clear that since 08, the milk tea industry has been growing faster year by year.

In the last two years, it has risen sharply.

Big data allowed Chu Qiuyan to clearly understand why Teng Hui Capital chose to enter this industry.

The development is too fast; it's far from reaching its peak.

Based on current data analysis, the milk tea industry still has three to five years of rapid growth ahead.

Until it becomes a market worth hundreds of billions.

Besides having a significant lead in data, large corporations are far superior to small-scale operations in terms of initial business planning and team building.

"Given that you two are still too young and unable to handle many things, the first CEO of Bobo Milk Tea will be Yang Qian, the head of public relations at Tencent Entertainment."

No objections to that. After all, there are many things to do when starting a business, and you need an experienced person to sort out these complex and tedious business matters in the early stages.

Yang Qian also gave a brief self-introduction to the two of them.

But Chen Pingsheng's plans went far beyond that.

They have detailed plans for the first three months.

Chu Qiuyan took a document and looked at it.

She is actually quite ambitious, mainly because she has a very strong desire to make money.

It's hard for someone who has never truly experienced poverty to understand her intense desire for money.

As arranged by Teng Hui, Yang Mi was ultimately chosen as the celebrity spokesperson for Bobo Milk Tea. Liu Shishi, who proactively offered to collaborate, was not selected.

Yang Mi invested 15% of the shares and personally served as the recommender for Bobo Milk Tea.

Chu Qiuyan was extremely shocked.

Unexpectedly, the business hasn't even opened yet; it's still just a plan on paper, and it's just a startup project by two college students.

They directly brought in Yang Mi, the queen of her generation.

Teng Hui also conducted a survey, and Yang Mi's image is the most suitable for endorsing milk tea.

Her fan base is also large enough.

In addition to selecting a good spokesperson, Jiang Yilei is in charge of the online marketing for Bobo Milk Tea.

She has always been in charge of the online promotion for Boiling Sheep.

In addition to these, Teng Hui will open fifty directly operated stores within three months.

The person in charge of opening stores and chain management is a regional general manager of Tengsheng Fruits.

We already have extensive experience in managing dozens of physical stores.

These are things they don't need to consider.

This is a devastating blow from large corporations to these niche traditional industries.

Without Teng Hui's invitation, they probably would never have had the opportunity to directly participate in the early stages of building a listed company.

After all the introductions were finished, Chen Pingsheng looked at Chu Qiuyan and said, "You two, including Yang Qian, have only one task for the first three months: to learn and gain a deep understanding of the milk tea market and preparation techniques."

"Honglan Capital has already connected you with the three largest milk tea chains in Taiwan. You will study at each chain for half a month, and after a month and a half, you will go to Shanghai to study the largest milk tea chain."

Without Tong Zhelan, he certainly wouldn't have been able to get directly arranged to learn at these large milk tea companies on his own.

Learning represents the future.

Chen Pingsheng positioned Chu Qiuyan as the future head of Bobo Milk Tea.

She still has a lot to learn.

After a midday meeting, Chu Qiuyan, who had absolutely no concept of what a listing was, was left speechless.

Now it seems like we're seeing a huge blueprint for macro-level development.

From this, you can clearly see the development process of Bobo Milk Tea step by step.

Everything is handled by top-tier specialists.

It's fair to say that the first three months were the most relaxed for the three of them.

All you need to do is master your skills; you don't need to worry about anything else.

And the so-called marketing has already begun from the moment they leave school.

Zhao Feifei was incredibly excited. The future, which had been unclear before, suddenly became incredibly bright.

Even Chu Qiuyan, who has been strong and independent since childhood, is no exception.

It's like two ordinary people.

Suddenly, I stepped into the game of capital.

With just a slight step back, you can surpass most of your peers.

If they can walk several steps in a row, then they are destined to be so-called successful people in this society.

It's no longer about bridging the gap between rich and poor, but about transcending social classes in a deeper sense.

It's all about social class. Only by entering this circle can you understand the joy of making money in this circle.

Ordinary people work themselves to the bone for a few years to earn money, and eventually open a small shop in some place, whether prosperous or ordinary, to support their families.

If someone is really good at it, they can open several stores.

The older man's social circle is clearly different.

From the very beginning, they were able to combine all the factors for entrepreneurial success, such as funding, talent, technology, and marketing.

Furthermore, through extensive market research, an extremely comprehensive industrial big data system is formed.

Finally, compile a small plan.

This proposal may not be very thick; it may very well be just a few thin pages.

But even these few pages are far beyond what ordinary people can achieve when starting a business.

Because the average person can only afford to start a business with a maximum investment of 100,000 or even 1 million.

These wealthy people can spend tens of millions of dollars just on a survey on this piece of paper.

Furthermore, the outcome of this piece of paper can form a super-large capital scheme.

This isn't milk tea they're selling.

It's just a game.

Chu Qiuyan didn't think too much about it; she just needed to follow the uncle's instructions and carefully study the milk tea preparation technique.

The rest is up to the market.

Or rather... hand it over to them.

Zhao Feifei and Chu Qiuyan reported to the school that same day, and under Yang Qian's guidance, they went away to study for at least two months.

When they returned, Bobo Milk Tea was no longer the cramped milk tea shop of a few square meters near the school gate.

Instead, she became the campus beauty milk tea who swept the campus.

Although the store hasn't officially opened yet, it doesn't stop Teng Hui from promoting its brand story ahead of time.

Yang Mi will come to personally endorse the store after it officially opens.
