Peng Zhijian is well-connected and well-informed.

Like the negotiations between Magnesium Tuan and Baidu, he knows much better than the average person.

"Wang Xing only wants money. Baidu is now worried that the stock price will continue to decline and tightens its purse strings. It only plans to invest in Xinmeida with shares and cash.

In my opinion, their negotiations are definitely useless, and the most they can do is to create a sense of presence."

Peng Zhijian said with a smile: "Mr. Chen, I think money for Cao Cao's takeout is very tight recently. Do you want me to invest some for you?"

If Peng Zhijian were asked to choose, he would vote for Cao Cao's takeout 10,000 times instead of Baidu's takeout.

Baidu Waimai's bloated management team and frequent interference from Baidu's top management made Peng Zhijian completely uninterested.

In contrast, Chen Dongcheng completely delegated power to Gan Jiawei.

Apart from giving money, he rarely interferes in the company's business.

Peng Zhijian strongly agreed with Chen Dongcheng's move.

If the top management has too much responsibility, it may not be a good thing for the subsidiaries.

Chen Dongcheng also wanted to hear Peng Zhijian's quotation and asked: "Mr. Peng, what do you think the current valuation of Cao Cao's takeaway is appropriate?"

Peng Zhijian was obviously well prepared and replied: "Are you hungry recently? We just got an investment from Ali. The pre-investment valuation was US$3.25 billion.

I think the pre-investment valuation of Cao Cao’s takeaway is set at US$1.2 billion, and US$300 million is raised, what does Mr. Chen think?”

Chen Dongcheng is quite satisfied with the price.

This is only the first financing for Cao Cao’s takeaway. It’s impossible to catch up with Hungry, which has raised several rounds of financing in one fell swoop.

However, this valuation has already caught up with Baidu Waimai. If Li Hong knew about it, he would probably want to crush Kong Weibing to death.

"Mr. Peng plans to invest alone?"

Peng Zhijian waved his hand quickly: "I can subscribe for 100 million US dollars, but the o2o market is generally not optimistic now.

Unless your model forms a monopoly, it will be difficult to make a profit.

I’m worried that it won’t be easy to find investment institutions for the remaining shares.”

This is the case for Ele.me’s current round of financing. At the beginning, Zhang Xuhao contacted everyone and asked around, but no one was interested.

In the end, Cai Wenxin showed his fangs, and Ali and Ant Financial jointly invested US$1.25 billion in Are You Hungry?

The end of this round of investment announced that Zhang Xuhao had completely lost the initiative, and Ahli became the largest shareholder of Hungry.me.

"I'll vote for the rest myself."

After Chen Dongcheng finished speaking, Peng Zhijian was shocked: "Are you going to vote for yourself?"

"I got a loan from Universe Bank before, and it still has about 600 million US dollars."

Peng Zhijian reacted quickly and asked: "Did you use Didi's equity as collateral?"

"What else?"

Peng Zhijian was relieved and felt a lot more relaxed: "That's good."

Chen Dongcheng's own funds alone are enough to fight back and forth with Magnesium Tuan and Hungry?

If we add another investor...

The investment agreement was signed smoothly. After the due diligence was completed, Peng Zhijian transferred the funds to the account as quickly as possible.

Chen Dongcheng also used the loan from the Universe Bank to provide Gan Jiawei with an additional US$200 million.

Gan Jiawei immediately released the news.

“Cao Cao Takeaway has completed its latest round of financing, with a post-investment valuation of up to US$3 billion.

The main investors are Yuansheng Capital and Cao Cao Group.”

When the news came out, the outside world was shocked.

Recently, several food delivery platforms have seemed to have gone out of business, and one by one has completed financing despite the cold capital winter.

At the cocktail party celebrating the end of the financing, Gan Jiawei socialized everywhere with a smile on his face.

The publicly announced valuation of three billion US dollars is definitely bragging.

However, all domestic Internet companies do this.

Cao Cao's takeout is abiding by industry regulations.

Some guests raised their glasses and said with a smile: "Congratulations to Mr. Gan, Cao Cao's food delivery is in a great development situation, and its layout in third- and fourth-tier cities is very visionary."

Gan Jiawei said humbly: "You are too grateful. Without the strong support of the parent company and Yuansheng Capital, our smooth financing this time would not have been possible."

In short, at the celebration cocktail party, Gan Jiawei couldn't stop thanking him.

Luo Shishi attended the cocktail party with the invitation letter sent to Luo Qijun, shaking her little head but did not find Chen Dongcheng.

Until Gan Jiawei happened to wander beside her, Luo Shishi greeted her politely.

"Hello, Mr. Gan, I am Luo Qiujun's daughter. Isn't Mr. Chen here?"

"Hello, Miss Luo, Director Chen is not here. I heard that he has gone to England."

Gan Jiawei replied with a smile.

"Going to England?"

Luo Shishi frowned and asked unwillingly: "Didn't he say what he was going to do in England?"

"It seems like we're going to give out bonuses?"

Gan Jiawei thought for a while and seemed to have heard Chen Dongcheng mention it, but he didn't remember it clearly.

"Then I won't disturb you any further. You go about your business first."

Luo Shishi got the answer and politely left.

On the way, I casually put the champagne glass on the tray held by the waiter, and hurried out of the banquet hall with my little dress in hand.

Gan Jiawei looked at Luo Shishi's back, shook his head with a smile, and continued talking to other guests.

…

Chen Dongcheng chartered a plane and flew straight to London, but Luo Shishi missed it.

The season for Tottenham is coming to an end, and Chen Dongcheng wants to go there to make his presence felt.

Chen Dongcheng is quite satisfied with Tottenham's results this season.

If Leicester City's results were not too magical, Tottenham would have a high probability of winning the championship trophy.

After getting off the plane, we went straight to Tottenham Club.

When I heard that the boss had arrived, Tottenham's management were waiting in the conference room.

Chen Dongcheng led people into the conference room, smiled and said: "Good evening."

"Hello."

Marotta and Pochettino looked at each other.

Judging from the boss's expression, he didn't seem to care too much about losing the championship.

Chen Dongcheng sat in the main seat, leaning against the boss's chair and said: "Although we failed to win the championship, I am very satisfied with the results this season."

Pochettino breathed a sigh of relief and complimented with a smile: "I think this is inseparable from your investment in the team. The morale of the players is strong, but on some key occasions, we did not perform very well."

"Next season, I want to see Tottenham win the Premier League title."

Chen Dongcheng looked at Marotta: "Tomorrow is the last round of competition?"

"Yes, we are currently second in the table and our arch-rivals Arsenal are chasing us very closely.

The last round of competition is very crucial.

We lost, and Arsenal only needed to lead by one goal to surpass us and finish second."

After Marotta analyzed the situation, he glanced at Pochettino.

Pochettino added: "In January and February, the team's six consecutive victories made me and the players think there was hope of winning the championship.

However, as several key battles failed to be won, the morale of the players was greatly affected.

Especially in the last round of the game against Chelsea, we were two goals ahead but were equalized by the opponent.

The mentality of the players now is in a very low state."

Chen Dongcheng frowned, stood up and looked out the window. Some young players were honing their skills on the training ground.

"Tell them I want to see a big win and give back to the fans who have always supported us."

Chen Dongcheng turned around and said: "As a reward, the player who scores the goal will receive a reward of half a million pounds.

Other players and coaches can receive an additional £500,000, with no upper limit."

In Chen Dongcheng's eyes, morale can be solved with money.

Pochettino was stunned. As the head coach of the team, he was naturally entitled to receive a sum of money.

If the team can beat the opponent 5:0, the players and coaches will receive 5 million pounds!

hiss!

Pochettino said excitedly: "I will definitely pass on your instructions to the players."

After Chen Dongcheng finished talking about motivating players, he asked Marotta: "How are you talking about those small shareholders?"
