Financial freedom starts with smiling at life

Chapter 250: Entrepreneurs and workers think differently
After the Jiangda MBA students left, Jiang Beicheng asked Wu Wen to stay alone for tea and have an in-depth discussion with Luo Peizhi about the product "Shangcheng".

Wu Wen elaborated in detail on her product positioning, market advantages, team members, etc.

After listening to this, Luo Peizhi smiled and did not directly reject Wu Wen. He gave Jiang Beicheng face and said bluntly: "Ms. Wu, if this product is made into a media derivative product, it may be better.

Mr. Jiang, I hold a conservative attitude."

That's put very tactfully.

Wu Wen understood what he meant.

The hope that had just ignited in my heart was poured with a bucket of cold water.

Jiang Beicheng smiled and nodded, patted Luo Peizhi's arm, and glanced at the time. "Mr. Luo, you've worked hard. Go back and rest early."

"Mr. Jiang, you should also go to bed early." Luo Peizhi stood up and said goodbye.

Jiang Beicheng poured Wu Wen a cup of tea and said with a smile, "Are you feeling very frustrated?"

Wu Wen nodded.

Are you starting to question whether you are on the wrong track?
Jiang Beicheng picked up the teacup and sipped the tea, "I didn't say I wouldn't vote for Shangcheng!"

Wu Wen looked up in surprise.

"Mr. Luo just..."

He looked at Jiang Beicheng with a puzzled look.

If he invested in "Shangcheng" not for investment returns, then what was Mr. Jiang's purpose in investing in her?
Could it be that he is coming for her too?
She still feels good about herself.

Jiang Beicheng smiled and said, “As an executive partner, Mr. Luo looks for high returns in projects.

Simply put, in the minds of senior investors like them, there is a value scale.

They use this table to measure how much profit a project can bring. If it does not meet their expectations, they may refuse to invest.

Wu Wen said, "Mr. Jiang can just say he doesn't like small projects like mine."

Jiang Beicheng smiled and said, "You are good at summarizing.

I founded Lion Capital primarily to make a profit, but secondly, I also value social value.

Some products may not have such high returns, but they will have high social value in a certain field. Even if this social value cannot be monetized, I will still invest in them.

I fully agree with the market positioning of "Shangcheng", and I personally like this kind of magazine that focuses on local Chinese culture and humanistic life.

Mr. Wu, remember, fashion is just a monetization channel. The purpose of collaborating with celebrities is to make sales and make money, but the content must be substantial.

In this regard, your experience in mainstream media is your advantage.”

Wu Wen stared blankly at Jiang Beicheng.

The feeling of being recognized and encouraged is very heartwarming.

She also felt that there was a big gap in thinking between Jiang Beicheng and Luo Peizhi.

Luo Peizhi is an employee who actively generates revenue for the company.

Jiang Beicheng is the image of an entrepreneur with a sense of social responsibility.

After a few words, Mr. Jiang's image gradually became more majestic.

Wu Wen asked excitedly, "How much is Mr. Jiang going to invest?"

Jiang Beicheng smiled and said: "100 million, 300 million?
This amount of money is not even enough to hire a top artist."

Wu Wen looked at Jiang Beicheng in confusion.

Not voting anymore?

Or do you have to give a lot?

I won’t be able to get tens of millions of investment like Liu Shan, right?
It’s very exciting to think about it.

Jiang Beicheng said: "Well, I'll give you a chance to prove your team.

Collaborate on a fashion event!
I provide the funding, you execute.

If I am satisfied with this event, I will vote for Shangcheng! "

"Boss Jiang, please tell me in detail!"

"Focusing on Chinese food culture, how do you think we can use food culture as a starting point, incorporate elements of fashion, and collaborate with celebrities?" Jiang Beicheng suggested, "To be honest, this is also the opening ceremony activity I'm conceiving.

The North City Hotel Shanghai branch is about to open, and many celebrity friends will come to support it."

Wu Wen stared at Jiangbei City with wide eyes.

Shocked again.

Beicheng Hotel is Mr. Jiang’s property!

He also knows many celebrities!

and many more……

Wu Wen suddenly remembered something, this year's early spring LV fashion show in Shanghai.

They would pay close attention to fashion events held by high-end luxury brands to understand the direction of this year's fashion trends. When President Jiang mentioned Shanghai and her celebrity friends, a familiar face flashed through her mind.

It seems like I have met Mr. Jiang before.

I quickly went through the information I had compiled.

When Wu Wen saw the young man taking photos with Liu Yifei, Wang Hedi and other popular stars, she was stunned for a moment.

I looked up at Mr. Jiang in front of me, and then looked at the photo. This... isn't this the same person?
Although the dressing styles are completely different, the silhouettes are exactly the same.

But Ms. Jiang’s outfit in the photo is so fashionable!

He looked at Jiang Beicheng in surprise.

Jiang Beicheng saw the photo on her phone and admitted with a smile: "It's me!"

"Mr. Jiang, you have too many sides." Wu Wen didn't know how to evaluate the young man in front of her.

Words like "excellent" are too superficial and lack depth.

Jiangbeicheng: "Liu Yifei, Wang Hedi, Wang Jiaer, Zhong Chuxi... will all attend the opening ceremony of the North City Hotel Shanghai branch.

Mr. Wu, are you interested in cooperating?
If you feel that your team's capabilities are not up to that level, I can seek cooperation with fashion media such as Bazaar and Vogue.

There may not be anything too eye-catching, but it can give me a guarantee and not be too disappointing."

Wu Wen fell into deep thought.

A little confused.

Jiangbei City has given her a unique cooperation opportunity since she started her business. If she can run this event successfully, she will gain both fame and fortune, and "Shangcheng" may be able to become a leader in the domestic fashion market.

But the impact of failure is also devastating, and she and her team may disappear from this circle directly.

The most important thing is that it will affect the opening of Mr. Jiang’s Shanghai store.

Jiang Beicheng continued, "Is the reason for hesitation because the challenge is not big enough?
I'll give you some more strength.

The Shanghai branch of North City Hotel is located on the Bund, close to Nanjing East Road. The initial investment to open this branch was close to 100 million yuan.

Ten years later, I still have to pay 700 million yuan in land transfer fees.

If this event doesn't go well, you can estimate the losses I will suffer!"

He smiled and poured Wu Wen a cup of tea.

In fact, it is intentional to push the potential of this young girl and her team.

Jiang Beicheng deeply recognizes the social value of "Shangcheng" magazine.

I also hope that Wu Wen can seize this opportunity and demonstrate her abilities.

Of course, if she can't handle the pressure and gives up, it means she and her team are not worth investing in.

Jiangbeicheng no longer pays attention to this project.

Wu Wen had never heard anyone tell her such a large amount in real life.

Mr. Jiang really has the ability as he sets several small goals right at the start of his speech.

But this burden was enough to make her breathless.

Jiang Beicheng picked up his teacup and touched the cup in front of Wu Wen. "It's a pleasure to work with you."

Wu Wen was startled. "Mr. Jiang...Mr. Jiang, I haven't...thought about it yet."

Jiang Beicheng smiled and said, "Do you still have a chance?"

Wu Wen was silent.

The difficult journey of seeking investment came to my mind again.

Basically, they all look at me with disdain.

Apart from Mr. Jiang, it seems that there is really no chance.

He gritted his teeth and raised his teacup to Jiang Beicheng, "Mr. Jiang, it's a pleasure to work with you."

Jiang Beicheng: “The biggest advantage of a makeshift team is creativity.

I wanted this to be a unique fashion event.

Keep in touch at all times and send me the plan once it’s finalized.”

"Thank you for your encouragement, Mr. Jiang!" Wu Wen expressed her gratitude again.

Jiang Beicheng finished the tea in his cup, stood up and said, "Do you need me to take you home?"

"No, no need, Mr. Jiang, I'll take a taxi back." Wu Wen waved her hand, not daring to trouble Mr. Jiang anymore. She had been drinking and couldn't drive.

Jiang Beicheng joked: "My secretary is driving, so you don't have to be on guard."

Wu Wen smiled, her tense nerves instantly relaxed. Mr. Jiang had a very strong and attractive personality. "Excuse me, Mr. Jiang."
