In front of Andingmen in Dongcheng, there are crisscrossing alleys, old bricks and tiles, and green trees.
Lu Fei walked through Guozijian Street and turned into Jianchang Alley. There was a Xiuguan Bar at the intersection, which was also open during the day.
The boss's surname is Wang, and he is a lover of old furniture, so the decoration in the store is antique. The partitions are old carved window frames, the wall decorations are old bed lintels, and even the roof is painted with Dunhuang flying sky. The decoration is full of old tables, chairs, and old objects.
.
In the winter, the coal stove is burning in the house, which is warm.
"This is Mr. Lu of Feigou.com, Lu Fei, who I'm talking to you about." Guo Yihong introduced both parties, "This is the head of Carlyle Capital Asia Pacific, Mr. Zu Wencui, Mr. Zu."
While shaking hands, Lu Fei looked at Zu Wencui. He was middle-aged, with gray hair, wearing glasses, and was polite and spoke with a strong Bayan accent.
Likewise, Zu Wencui was also observing him.
"Can you guys have something to drink?"
The waiter came over and took down the coffee that Zu Wencui and Guo Yihong wanted.
When it was Lu Fei's turn, he ordered cappuccino as usual, and also ordered a pot of warm water and a bag of sugar. Then, under the watchful eyes of everyone, he took out bottles and cans from the small bag he carried.
Zu Wencui saw the milk tea powder and the pearls, "Mr. Lu likes to make his own milk tea?"
Lu Fei took four spoons of powder and three handfuls of pearls, poured in sugar packets and water, and quickly made a cup, "Mr. Ancestor, do you want to try it?"
Zu Wencui took a drink, and the taste that went into his throat immediately made him nostalgic, "It's been a long time since I drank boba milk tea. The taste is very similar to the one I drank in Wanwan, but it's a little different, with a unique flavor."
Lu Fei squinted his eyes, and the fish took the bait, "What if we make it into a product?"
"You want to open a physical milk tea shop?" Guo Yihong was stunned.
Lu Fei shook his head and laughed, "I came up with a sudden idea. I predict that in two years, milk tea will be available in first- and second-tier cities across the country."
"Two years?" Zu Wencui couldn't believe it.
Lu Fei's tone was full of talk, and his tone showed confidence.
"...The entire East Asia region is in the Pan-Confucian cultural circle. There are similarities in eating habits. Do our ancestors agree?"
Zu Wencui took a sip of milk tea and said it was great!
Lu Fei curled his lips, just like an old American who doesn’t believe there are people in the world who don’t like drinking coffee. He is from Wanwan and has stayed in Wanwan, Xiangjiang, Neon, and Bangzi. He believes and is sure that there is no reason why the mainland doesn’t like it.
milk tea.
Milk tea will become popular sooner or later!
Why do these words sound so familiar? Yes, this set of words is completely based on the routines of Domestic Light, US Stock Harvester, and Luckin Coffee.
During the fooling around, Zu Wencui was inexplicably attracted to milk tea.
"Ahem."
Guo Yihong looked confused. His style of painting was wrong. I asked you to talk about the Internet, but you were actually talking about milk tea?
Lu Fei was not in a hurry to pull the lever, and deliberately gave it a try to divert his attention from the milk tea back to Feigou.com.
The negotiation went very smoothly. The capital market loves stories the most, especially miracles.
The rush to register the Lianxiang domain name, the establishment of Feigou.com, the hype of "Westward Journey", coupled with the recent financing of Baring Asia, so many stories are concentrated on a senior high school student.
Then, being a repeat student is not a deduction, but a plus!
Zu Wencui valued Lu Fei and naturally liked the stories he told.
1.25 million U.S. dollars is not even a cent for Carlyle Capital, which manages 30 billion U.S. dollars. It invests as much as it wants.
Rather than investing, he cared more about the milk tea he mentioned just now, and he was still talking about it before parting ways.
Lu Fei continued to whet his appetite, but did not reveal the answer to the mystery. The more it was like this, the more itchy Zu Wencui felt. He got in the car and did not forget to roll down the window: "I am very much looking forward to Mr. Lu's answer."
Watching the car go further and further away, Guo Yihong turned his head and asked: "Are you still planning to make milk tea and do two things?"
Lu Fei encouraged, "I'm not the one who gave the idea to others. Are you interested? Do you want to invest in it? Just look for one company?"
"No need, IDG specializes in investing in the Internet." Guo Yihong refused.
"Don't regret it."
Lu Fei touched it with his arm and suddenly said, "I know you have invested in a chat tool..."
"Yes, QICQ, developed by a small company in Pengcheng."
Guo Yihong sighed, "It's okay if you don't mention it. Once you mention it, you'll be worried. More than two million US dollars have been thrown into it, the traffic has not been realized, there is no profit point, and the money will be burned out quickly."
"Let's sum it up."
"What ideas do you have?" Guo Yihong asked warily.
“Isn’t my Feigou.com missing a chat tool?”
Lu Fei looked serious and harmless to humans and animals, "Please contact me and discuss cooperation."
……………
On December 1, Donglu officially signed contracts with Barings Asia and Carlyle Capital one after another. It was neither published in newspapers nor interviewed. There were only a few newspapers such as "Beiqing Daily", "Yanjing Evening News", and "Yanjing Morning News"
The media reports are not front-page headlines, but occupy a small space in finance and economics.
And in the entire IT world, the news spread like wildfire, and people in the industry realized belatedly that the driving force behind the popularity of "Dahua" was actually Feigou.com.
Now this little-known website has raised US$5 million and became famous overnight. It has become a talking point in the industry. It even had a special feature on Lu Fei's "Sanlian" and sales have increased by several thousand copies.
Although starting from RMB 160,000 and reaching a valuation of US$500 million is not legendary enough compared to 8848.com, the "different rights for the same shares" has simply caused a stir in the IT industry.
This is the first one for China Internet!
Another first, another first to eat crabs!
Xiangjiang, Ali Baba.
Luyun raised $20 million and moved its headquarters to the more international city of Hong Kong. Its employees are all elite talents from multinational companies, and its servers are located in Silicon Valley in the United States.
At this time, he was sitting in the office meeting with Cai Chongxin:
"I think Ali Baba should also implement such a dual-class equity management, and always ensure that control is in the hands of our team..."
"I will lead the team to design this, but it is not the most important thing."
Cai Chongxin adjusted his glasses, "According to my research on Feigou.com, many of its mechanisms are very avant-garde, especially its payment model, Caifubao."
"More advanced than 8848?"
Lu Yun frowned. Wang Juntao of 8848.com was by no means a fuel-saving lamp. He did not expect Caifubao to be in place in one step, but he proposed a "unique" bank transfer method for Chinese e-commerce.
The platform negotiates with financial institutions. Customers can order goods online and tell 8848.com which card to use. Then the platform will notify the buyer of an account number and transfer the money to it.
Because 8848 is mainly engaged in B2C and B2B, it is the only seller, and it is between face-to-face transactions and online payments.
But obviously, it is not as advanced as Caifubao.
Cai Chongxin proposed to create a "Cai Fu Bao" for Ali Baba. [ps: In 2002, Ali launched "Integrity Pass"]
Lu Yun touched his chin, "It seems that this Lu Fei's success was not accidental. Next time we have a sword debate in West Lake, I will definitely invite him and let Wang Juntao compete."
"well!"
Wang Juntao stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, overlooking Zhuhai. On the table behind him was "Sanlian Life Weekly", and the open page happened to be on Lu Fei's page.
He sighed, envious of this young man who dared to engage in "same shares but different rights".
Today's 8848.com is brilliant on the surface, with a valuation of US$500 million, but in fact it's all a bubble, just driven up by capital.
There are 57 companies taking shares, and the equity of founders Wang Juntao has been completely diluted, from the original 20% to 1%.
If it cannot be listed this time, the castle in the air will collapse.
He lowered his head, sat back on the chair, looked up at the ceiling, and kept blaming himself.
Why didn’t I think of this trick?
The waves behind the Yangtze River push the waves in front, and this wave behind Lu Fei is also a bit fierce!
The one who expressed the same emotion was still in Yanjing Zijin Building.
Lei Jun flipped through Sanlian Life Weekly and looked at Lu Fei's face at least five times.
Why did he think of hyping "Westward Journey"!
He turned his head and looked at the people in his company. They either had extremely long hair or were bald, talkative, and full of pioneers.
Among the crowd, Chen Nian hurriedly walked out, bringing bad news. The concert planned by Na Ying and Wang Fei for a month was completely ruined.
Joyo.com’s one-hit plan failed!
Lei Jundao: "Where are the CDs from the music department? How are the sales of the CDs we gave Song Ke?"
“Unsatisfactory.”
Chen Nian shook his head. He originally expected to sell 1 million or 10 million copies, but it was all a pipe dream. It was still a fraction of the price of "Westward Journey" on Feigou.com.
"How about we cut down the music department?"
Lei Jun is very worried. Joyo.com has been building the website for almost 2 months, and the traffic is very low. He must plan to have 16.4 million on hand to support the day when the website becomes profitable.
"That's the only way."
Chen Nian sighed, "Mr. Lei, does the software department have any plans, or any new products?"
However, the software does not come out in a short time. At this time, Lei Jun and Chen Nian were in trouble. What does the newly launched Joyo.com sell?
The software is not good, the music is not good, only books are left.
Chen Nian suggested: "I found an online novel on New Wolf, "The Legend of Wukong", which is similar to "Westward Journey". It is also a joke about Journey to the West."
"Then try it."
Lei Jun nodded solemnly, "Also, we are also engaged in DVD production like Feigou.com. He can launch high-quality products. There is no reason why he should not be outstanding..."
At this moment, the secretary intervened and someone was looking for him outside the door.
"Who?" Lei Jun asked.
"It's said to be a company in Pengcheng called Penguin."
