Lu Suzhen's cooking skills are excellent, or the top-quality ingredients, no matter how poor her cooking skills are, the taste will not be bad.
Lao Guo was a bit greedy for wine, so he took advantage of Chen Dongcheng's visit to drink two more drinks.
Lu Suzhen and Guo Jingxuan looked at each other helplessly.
Lao Guo learned how to drink this time, knowing that he could not drink Chen Dongcheng's drink, so he drank until he was satisfied.
After the meal, Lu Suzhen and Guo Jingxuan were busy cleaning up.
Chen Dongcheng and Lao Guo played chess and drank tea.
We sat there until after eight o'clock in the evening before Chen Dongcheng said goodbye.
Lao Guo kindly asked to stay: "It's so late, so just stay here."
"No, I have a friend at home. I will definitely come over and hang out for a few nights when I have the chance."
Chen Dongcheng didn't dare to look at Guo Jingxuan, he could feel that Guo Jingxuan must be sour.
Lao Guo noticed that Guo Jingxuan's eyes were a little red now and muttered: "What's going on? She was smiling so happily just now."
"Uncle Guo and Aunt Lu will stay. Jingxuan, you guys should go to bed early. I'll pick you up in a few days."
Chen Dongcheng couldn't bear the little look in Guo Jingxuan's eyes, and he didn't relax until he entered the elevator.
Back in the rose garden, Li Xingyao knew that Chen Dongcheng must have gone to Guo Jingxuan's place without having to guess.
Chen Dongcheng would never have guessed that the two of them would have WeChat.
Li Xingyao casually took a photo of the yard, and Guo Jingxuan naturally knew that Li Xingyao was here.
Neither Guo Jingxuan nor Li Xingyao wanted to cause too much trouble, lest Chen Dongcheng be in a dilemma.
On the eighth day of the Lunar New Year, Chen Dongcheng accompanied Li Xingyao to visit home.
At Qingju Technology, Chen Dongcheng solved the problem with just one phone call.
In addition to calling Chen Dongcheng to wish him a happy New Year, Cheng Wei also told Chen Dongcheng something in advance.
"Recently, Magnesium Group has launched an online car-hailing portal in Jianye. We need to be vigilant."
It’s not a secret that Magnesium Tuan wants to make online ride-hailing services.
Wang Xing has always wanted Magnesium Group to become the third pole of the Internet, replacing Baidu's position.
In order to realize this ambition of his, Magnesium Group has been adopting a borderless approach and launching wars everywhere to expand its business lines.
There is only one purpose, to tell a bigger story to capital and investors, and to obtain their investment.
Therefore, it is only a matter of time before Magnesium Group enters the online ride-hailing battlefield.
Chen Dongcheng replied: "Magnesium Group is only opening the preliminary entrance. They will not make any big moves until they obtain the online car-hailing license."
"I estimate that they will be able to obtain the online car-hailing license in less than half a year."
Cheng Wei thought so too, but with the energy of the shareholders of Magnesium Group.
It’s not too difficult to get an online ride-hailing license.
"Even if they launch an online car-hailing function, they can only start in Jianye. We can pay attention to it strategically, but we don't need to worry too much."
After Chen Dongcheng comforted Cheng Wei, he asked: "How are the financing discussions going?"
“It’s almost done, the post-investment valuation is US$50 billion, and US$5 billion in financing will come in.
There are many investment institutions subscribing, which shows that our prospects are still promising."
Cheng Wei finally felt better when he mentioned the recent financing, and his tone was a bit teasing.
"Wang Xing is a bit brave. He wants to start a war with you for food delivery, and fight with me for online ride-hailing. I really don't know how long he can last with the money he raises."
"It's almost time for it to be listed. The Hong Kong Stock Exchange is eagerly waiting for it."
"Listed..."
Cheng Wei sighed: "Didi is not suitable for listing now. Our dominance has advantages and disadvantages."
“The higher authorities have never had a specific regulatory plan for online ride-hailing, and we are still trying to cross the river by feeling the stones.”
"Once listed, a crisis may break out at any time, causing the market value to plummet."
In Didi's case, if it really wanted to go public, the New York Stock Exchange and the Hong Kong Stock Exchange would let Didi choose, without any hindrance.
Didi does not plan to go public rashly before the country is completely stabilized.
Cheng Wei changed his tone and said with a hint of sarcasm: "Wangxing will definitely go public next year, and the funds they invested in early will have to exit."
"Even if Wang Xing doesn't want to, those fund institutions will force him to go public."
Funds generally have an investment duration of 10 years.
Magnesium Group, which started financing in 2006, naturally faces exit points for many funds.
No matter how reluctant Wang Xing is, he must satisfy the wishes of these early investors.
Chen Dongcheng said lazily: "That's not something we should worry about. I held back the food delivery battlefield, and you hurt him in the online ride-hailing battlefield. He will naturally be honest."
"It's difficult. I know Wang Xing very well. He's just like a wolf that can't even be beaten away when it smells meat."
Cheng Wei used to have a good personal relationship with Wang Xing, but now that they have become rivals, the friendship should be put aside.
Cheng Wei sighed and added: "I heard that Wang Xing has been in contact with Mobai and ofo recently. This grandson is so evil!"
Wang Xing naturally had only one purpose when he came into contact with Mobike and Ofo. He wanted to completely open up the travel industry.
In addition to taxis, bicycles are also a very frequent traffic portal.
The reason why Didi agreed to acquire Qingju Bicycle was that Qingju Bicycle’s high-frequency traffic entrances can bring greater room for imagination to Didi.
Chen Dongcheng was helpless. He was an investor now, so he didn't need to go back and forth with Wang Xing in person.
"If he wants to acquire it, let him do it. If you run Qingju Bicycle well, your market share will not be small."
Chen Dongcheng thought for a moment and reminded: "Be careful with the Hellobike that Jack Ma invested in before. Their deposit-free gameplay will attract a lot of people."
"Fuck, I just realized now that I was tricked by you!"
Cheng Wei was very depressed and muttered dissatisfiedly.
"Being careful doesn't mean they can become successful. With your size, you can't suppress a newcomer?"
Chen Dongcheng said with a smile: "This round of financing, even if it takes 2 billion US dollars, is enough to kill Hellobike."
"Okay, I won't talk to you anymore, I have to have a meeting."
Cheng Wei hung up the phone, he was stupid to invest 2 billion US dollars into the shared bicycle business line.
Chen Dongcheng understood what Cheng Wei meant by making this call.
Cheng Wei just hopes that he can drag down some of Magnesium Tuan's energy in the field of takeaway.
After all, Magnesium Group has not been listed yet. Although it has raised a lot of funds, it is surrounded by strong enemies in all major business lines.
Just a few wrong steps and you'll end up in a state of ruin.
If Magnesium Tuan falls, there will be many hungry wolves staring at them.
Even if Cheng Wei doesn't make this call, Chen Dongcheng will definitely not show mercy.
There is still a lot of room for improvement in the takeaway market, and he will definitely not give it up to Magnesium Tuan.
And he knows better than Cheng Wei that Wang Xing is determined not to give up on the travel market.
Seeing that Didi’s acquisition of Qingju Bicycle has the potential to further strengthen its monopoly in the travel field, Wang Xing will definitely be anxious.
Being impatient means making mistakes.
No matter which company Wang Xing acquires, it will be good news for Chen Dongcheng.
Even if Wang Xing can raise US$4 billion, whether it acquires Ofo or Mobike, it will need at least US$2 billion to start.
Half of the funds were directly used, and it would even continue to drag down the magnesium group later.
The corners of Chen Dongcheng's mouth curled up slightly, since Magnesium Tuan wanted to make its stock price look better when it went public.
No matter what, he had to cooperate and act as the master.
…
On the eighth day of the Lunar New Year, Chen Dongcheng sent Li Xingyao home and visited Li Xingyao's parents.
After staying for a few days, Chen Dongcheng returned to Hangzhou and took Guo Jingxuan to Munich.
Tottenham were drawn against Bayern Munich, and many Bayern fans still felt a little regretful.
If Arsenal had overtaken Tottenham last season, there would have been something good to watch.
When Arsenal met Bayern, they basically guaranteed their opponent promotion.
Bayern fans even made fun of Arsenal on the Internet, saying that the opponent deliberately fell behind and avoided them.
Munich is the third largest city in Germany, and the giant Bayern Munich is located in this city.
The entire Tottenham team is generally full of new recruits.
The atmosphere of the group stage is even more different than that of the knockout rounds. Life or death will be decided in two games.
Tottenham's performance this season is so outstanding that they are firmly locked in the top spot in the Premier League.
Various betting agencies have adjusted Tottenham's winning odds to the lowest, and are very optimistic about Tottenham winning this season.
As for the Champions League, no one would think that Tottenham, a young team with young talent, could win the championship.
Even Chen Dongcheng would not dare to think like this in his dreams.
Hilton Munich Park Hotel.
It is considered a good luxury hotel in Munich and has been chartered by Tottenham Hotspur as the team's hotel.
As the team owner, Chen Dongcheng is naturally assigned the best presidential suite.
Said to be a presidential suite, the area is only about 140 square meters.
Tottenham are playing in the Champions League, so there is naturally no lack of enthusiasm.
Whether it is the team's top star Zlatan Ibrahimovic or the mysterious and wealthy team owner, they are all potential hot spots.
For the first time in the knockout round, Tottenham brought several psychologists here to provide psychological counseling to the players at any time.
In the hotel conference room, Chen Dongcheng listened to Marotta's analysis of the game.
Generally speaking, Bayern is stronger than Tottenham.
Bayern has played in the Champions League every year, but this is the first time for Tottenham. The two pairs of players have different mentality.
"Boss, we have done a rigorous analysis. Although we don't want to face it, our chance of being eliminated is as high as 60%."
Marotta continued his analysis: "We are quite different from Tottenham. Our players are generally young and motivated, but lack experience."
"Bayern is just the opposite of us. They have experience, but the team is seriously aging. This is our only chance."
A very young and full of energy.
A mature and experienced person.
The game between Tottenham and Bayern is indeed two completely different scenery in the Champions League.
Having said that, Tottenham's performance this season has been outstanding.
The Premier League is the most popular league in the world, and its fans are growing very fast.
For many fans, there is no concept of a home team.
Usually, whichever team performs well will be paid more attention to.
Chen Dongcheng wrote a number on the whiteboard, 50%.
"Starting from the knockout rounds, 50% of the bonuses received for each round advanced will be allocated to players and coaches. You should study the specific distribution ratio between them."
Marotta and the others looked at each other and couldn't help but ask: "Boss, is this not in line with the rules?"
"The rules are set by people. I'm just using money to motivate my players. Without them, I rely on you to win the championship?"
After Chen Dongcheng finished speaking, he waved his hand: "That's it, you go and inform us."
Marotta nodded and signaled to the others.
Then he walked to another conference room, right next to them.
