Double Eleven is here, and all the lights are brightly lit tonight.
Like most women, Zhang Lu and Zheng Danni kept switching between various apps since the early morning.
They started shopping for products that they had been cultivating for a long time and finally had reduced prices.
"Danni, please help me quickly check out this Sisley eye cream. Is it cheaper on Taobao or JD.com?"
Chen Dongcheng took a closer look and saw that the total price of the shopping cart was nearly 100,000.
Most people really can't afford to support these two little rich women.
Zhang Lu rushed to pay while chatting with Chen Dongcheng.
"I bought you two razors. I have been collecting them for a long time, and they are on sale today."
"What brand is it?"
"Philips."
"How much?"
"The price has been reduced, it's only 12,000."
"Wait, why is your razor so expensive?"
Chen Dongcheng couldn't help being stunned: "Are you sure this is the discounted price?"
Zhang Lu didn't think it was expensive at all, and said matter-of-factly: "You get what you pay for. This is imported from the Netherlands, not produced domestically."
"Which app did you buy it from?"
"Blue Whale Overseas Shopping, didn't you tell us to buy everything here?"
After Zhang Lu finished speaking, she was a little worried: "This can't be a fake, right?"
"No."
Chen Dongcheng smiled and comforted her: "Such an expensive product must not be fake.
Even if something goes wrong, if you go directly to us, we will compensate you."
"I don't want to compensate you. I just want to buy you a razor. If you buy a fake, I'm afraid your friends will laugh at you."
Zhang Lu looked at the time and screamed: "I won't tell you anymore, I'm going to grab it."
After saying that, Zhang Lu took her phone again and switched to other apps to buy.
Chen Dongcheng did not bother Zhang Lu and the others, but looked at some screenshots of the data sent by He Qian.
Blue Whale Online Shopping is not very popular among e-commerce apps, but for users of Little Blue Book, its coverage rate reaches almost 80%.
Previously, relying on Weibo lottery activities, the number of users of Little Blue Book has increased significantly, and the number of registered users has officially exceeded 30 million.
Zhang Ye, who joined Little Blue Book as CTO, was not in vain. Chen Dongcheng specially asked Zeng Yiming to pay more attention to him.
Zhang Ye rebuilt an algorithm system for Xiaolanshu.
The most obvious effect is that the average usage time of users has increased significantly.
If the user stays in the makeup category notes for a little longer, the system will continuously recommend some notes in this area to make the user stay.
If the user is willing to purchase, they can directly click on the link and download the Blue Whale Online Shopping app to pay with one click, which is convenient and fast.
If the user successfully completes the transaction, Blue Whale Online Shopping will pay Xiaolanshu a service fee.
For Xiaolanshu, it can not only spin off the e-commerce department that has suffered huge losses, but also increase a large amount of income.
In addition, it can also make your financial statements look better and impress capital more.
If we use a more vivid metaphor, Xiaolanshu is similar to Douyin in the future, and it also follows the path of traffic equaling money.
Little Blue Book uses its own traffic to guide Blue Whale overseas shopping and earn service fees.
Chen Dongcheng's requirements for Blue Whale's overseas shopping are not high. If the turnover reaches 300 million on Double Eleven, it can already make Chen Dongcheng happy.
The popularity of Double Eleven is inseparable from the promotion of all e-commerce platforms.
Blue Whale Online Shopping’s sales officially exceeded 100 million at 00:56!
This achievement is definitely not comparable to Taobao and JD.com.
But for Blue Whale overseas shopping, it is enough to make everyone cheer for a while.
In order to prepare for this carnival, He did not rest the day and night before.
Until the early morning of the next day, the report card of Blue Whale overseas shopping was handed over to Chen Dongcheng.
"Director Chen, we have subsidized a total of 50 million, and since we are self-operated in purchasing, we can have an advantage in price negotiations.
I dare not say that the price is the lowest on the Internet, but it is definitely a very sincere price.”
When He Qian reported, his voice was a little hoarse, but he couldn't hide his excitement: "We achieved sales of 500 million in one day.
Several venture capital institutions have already approached me, and I have also received several calls from capital firms that focus on early-stage investments, and the valuations they offered are pretty good.”
"Okay, you have worked hard. Keep the staff on duty and the rest of the staff will have a day off."
"Okay, then I won't disturb you."
After listening to the report before congratulations, Chen Dongcheng looked at the data in the game.
The consumer rebates in the past few weeks have been used by Chen Dongcheng to improve his strength and agility attributes, making his physical fitness stronger and stronger.
In addition to the gratifying results of Blue Whale’s overseas purchases, Lanshi Heavy Equipment, invested by Chen Dongcheng, also achieved 23 consecutive daily limits.
The stock price has climbed all the way from the listing price of 1.68 yuan to 20.35 yuan.
Everyone knows that if you buy Lanshi Heavy Equipment's stocks, you may lose your money at any time.
But watching Lanshi Heavy Equipment continue to hit the daily limit, and even set a record for the rise of new stocks since the IPO was restarted.
Retail investors who entered the market earlier have already made huge profits.
The balance in my mind gradually began to tilt, and more retail investors began to enter the market.
Relying on Gu Canyang's relationship, Chen Dongcheng spent 80 million to acquire 20 million shares.
Now it has successfully exited at 19 yuan/share, with a net profit of 300 million.
Wei Ziliang called Chen Dongcheng 150 million, and all other expenses were borne by Gu Canyang.
Compared with the income from stock trading, it is just a drizzle.
…
Hongqiao Airport.
"Mr. Chen, I'm so sorry that you came all the way to pick me up."
Peng Zhijian saw Chen Dongcheng standing at the exit and gave Chen Dongcheng a warm hug.
Chen Dongcheng smiled and replied: "Mr. Peng left Tengxun and started his own business. As an old friend, I should come to pick him up."
"Mr. Chen, how have you considered what I told you before?"
Peng Zhijian was a little anxious and asked directly.
Peng Zhijian left Tengxun to start a business, and the fund raising went very smoothly.
Relying on the deep connections and outstanding achievements in the capital circle, the first phase of the fund was easily raised.
Investors in the first phase of the fund are all United Nations sovereign wealth funds, international organization funds, pension funds, insurance companies...
This shows how deep Peng Zhijian’s connections are.
Chen Dongcheng knew that Peng Zhijian was mentioning the financing of Xiaolanshu, so he said as he walked: "Mr. Peng, Xiaolanshu plans to raise US$100 million in round A, where are you..."
“Don’t worry, Mr. Chen, we have plenty of funds, and I am personally very optimistic about the Little Blue Book project.
If Mr. Chen is interested in accepting our investment, we will transfer the funds to Xiaolanshu’s account as quickly as possible after due diligence.”
Peng Zhijian's tone was a bit urgent. Logically speaking, it shouldn't be the case. Investors should take the initiative.
But there are exceptions to everything, such as some companies with great potential and many competitors.
If you want to invest, you must show your abilities and resources.
Obviously, Little Blue Book is such a company.
If Xiaolanshu hadn't asked for too high a valuation, the financing would have been completed long ago, so there would be no chance for him.
Arrive at Global Center.
Peng Zhijian couldn't help but frown slightly: "Mr. Chen, is it too luxurious for Xiaolanshu to work in such an expensive office building?"
Logically speaking, it is absolutely impossible for a startup company to appear in a place like the Global Center.
Most of the startups that Peng Zhijian has seen started by renting a house in a residential building.
As the company grows, it gradually changes its office space.
How can there be such a thing as Little Blue Book, where you can get everything right in one step and work in the top office building in Shanghai?
"I am the owner of the Little Blue Book floor, and the rent is very cheap."
Peng Zhijian scratched his head: "Haha, then I'll be fine."
Anyone who makes their boss rich is willful.
As one of the three major artifacts of the Magic City, the Global Center’s hardware level is absolutely top-notch.
When they arrived on the 61st floor, Peng Zhijian saw Cao Cao Suda and Xiao Lanshu on the same floor. He couldn't help but be startled: "Why is this company here?"
"I invested in it."
Peng Zhijian couldn't help but feel horrified and turned to look at Chen Dongcheng.
Peng Zhijian was very aware of Cao Cao's cooperation with Su Da and Hungry Me to fight against the Magnesium Regiment.
Before leaving Tengxun, he had seen a document.
Zhang Tao of Dianping applied to Tengxun for strategic investment to prevent Magnesium Tuan from creating a climate in the takeout market.
Unfortunately, although the document was approved by Brother Xiao Ma, it failed to obtain the consent of Zhang Xuhao and the others.
At that time, Zhang Xuhao was persuaded by Chen Dongcheng and planned to take Chen Dongcheng's money.
After all, if according to what Chen Dongcheng said, Magnesium Tuan and Dianping merged, Hungry? would be in an extremely embarrassing situation.
When passing by Cao Cao's Suda, Peng Zhijian took a few glances inside. Only he knew what he was thinking.
When they arrived at Little Blue Book, Zeng Yiming was a little puzzled when he saw Peng Zhijian. Didn’t Tengxun say before that it would not consider Little Blue Book’s investment for the time being?
Why is Peng Zhijian here again?
Chen Dongcheng explained with a smile: "Mr. Peng has resigned from Tengxun and founded Yuansheng Capital. The first project he plans to invest in is Little Blue Book."
It’s a coincidence that historically Peng Zhijian left Tengxun and the first project he invested in was also Xiaohongshu.
It's just that Little Blue Book killed Little Red Book, but the trajectory of history has not changed.
Zeng Yiming looked startled, and when he came to his senses, he quickly made tea.
Peng Zhijian looked at the steaming tea and said, "The Little Blue Book project was something I carefully observed when I was at Tengxun.
I was interested in investing at that time, but you rejected me."
Zeng Yiming remembered this incident and apologized: "We were not short of funds at that time, and the valuation you gave us was a little low."
"Is there any capital currently willing to lead your round?"
"The one who is more interested is GGV Capital, but they are still researching it and have already confirmed a few investors."
After Peng Zhijian thought for a moment, he looked directly at Zeng Yiming: "In your round, we, Yuansheng Capital, will lead the investment."
Zeng Yiming was a little surprised. He didn't know the scale of Yuansheng Capital and thought that Peng Zhijian would just follow the investment.
"Mr. Peng, if you want to invest in us, we very much welcome it.
But this time we plan to raise US$100 million, and the post-financing valuation will be US$1 billion.”
After Zeng Yiming finished speaking, he continued to look at Peng Zhijian, wanting to see his reaction.
Peng Zhijian nodded: "I know all this, and I will invest 50 million US dollars for you.
However, I need to conduct due diligence on you, which will take a week.
I need you to fully cooperate with me and not hide anything."
"This is as it should be."
Zeng Yiming smiled and said: "As an investor, you have the right to conduct due diligence on us, and we will fully cooperate."
Peng Zhijian extended his hand to Zeng Yiming: "Then I would like to congratulate Mr. Zeng in advance for successfully completing the A-round financing."
"Rejoice together and rejoice together."
Zeng Yiming also breathed a sigh of relief and shook hands with Peng Zhijian in relief.
Only through personal experience can you know how difficult financing is.
All capitals must be in constant contact. Zeng Yiming’s mobile phone always remains on, ready to accept late-night harassment from any capital at any time.
In the evening, Chen Dongcheng hosted a banquet in honor of Peng Zhijian.
One is to celebrate his resignation from Tencent and start his own business.
The other is to thank Peng Zhijian for being so decisive in confirming the investment.
Chen Dongcheng knew that Peng Zhijian's investment this time would definitely be profitable.
At least three billion US dollars is the ceiling for Little Blue Book.
Therefore, Peng Zhijian’s return on investment is at least 300%.
As I was drinking to my heart's content, two more figures appeared on the wine table.
After Chen Dongcheng introduced him, Peng Zhijian's eyes lit up.
Three of the Four Heavenly Kings under Chen Dongcheng have appeared.
Cao Cao quickly appointed his new CEO, Lu Guangyu.
CEO of Blue Whale Online Shopping, He Qian.
Plus Little Blue Book’s CEO, Zeng Yiming.
Only Cao Cao Logistics CEO Zhou Shaohua, who was busy supervising work in various bonded warehouses, failed to arrive.
Peng Zhijian couldn't help his heartbeat speeding up and his eyes narrowed slightly.
What excites Peng Zhijian the most is that these are good projects that have not yet started financing.
Peng Zhijian doesn’t know the specific performance of Blue Whale’s overseas shopping.
But just because Blue Whale Online Shopping announced a good result of over 100 million in one hour.
It is enough to prove the potential of Blue Whale overseas shopping in the cross-border e-commerce market.
Needless to say, Cao Cao Suda has a huge system of more than 400,000 delivery personnel, which has formed a huge transportation capacity.
The reason why Are You Hungry and Magnesium Tuan are so inseparable is definitely due to Cao Cao's speed.
Although Magnesium Group has a larger amount of financing, it is still difficult to build its own logistics.
Especially if you are hungry, you will not let go. Wang Xing does not dare to relax even a little bit.
The subsidy alone will keep me busy, let alone freeing up time to take care of self-built distribution.
This leads to an embarrassing phenomenon. Although Magnesium Tuan’s takeout is subsidized, merchants cannot deliver it.
Are you hungry? Basically, as long as there is an order for takeout, there must be a delivery person from Cao Cao Suda to take the order and complete the delivery.
As time went by, the merchants became dissatisfied.
Magnesium Tuan hands over all order delivery matters to them.
It didn't matter before, but with the emergence of Cao Cao Suda, merchants are also willing to take the initiative to hand over the delivery matter to Cao Cao Suda.
Seeing that more and more businesses were taken over by Cao Cao Suda.
Mei Tuan stared anxiously. Fortunately, Cao Cao Suda had no plan to launch a takeout platform, so Wang Xing was reassured.
But even if it is delivered, Cao Cao Suda’s delivery staff will follow the above regulations and give priority to orders from Are You Hungry?
This is even more embarrassing. Although Magnesium Tuan has sufficient subsidies, its user experience has been criticized.
Wang Xing was so tormented by the matter of self-built distribution that he wanted to cry but had no tears.
I wanted to take some time off, but Zhang Xuhao kept pestering me.
For a while, the situation was very anxious.
Peng Zhijian coughed lightly: "Mr. Chen, if your companies need financing, I, Lao Peng, will definitely be the first to support it."
Peng Zhijian knows very well that any one of these companies will make a lot of money as long as he can get involved.
Chen Dongcheng welcomed with a smile: "Okay, Mr. Peng, keep your ammunition, so that when these companies raise funds, Mr. Peng will not be able to get the money."
"Don't worry, Mr. Chen. I'm currently raising a second fund, which is also worth US$500 million."
Peng Zhijian showed off his muscles and talked about his investment strategy.
"Unlike in Tengxun, I plan to invest in no more than ten projects for each phase of the fund to ensure that every bullet hits as hard as possible."
However, if he can win these companies today, Peng Zhijian feels that he can be called a sharpshooter, and he will definitely hit every target.
