Wind Rises 2005

Chapter 78 Are You Lovers?

Ma Liang gently held Jiang Yinqiu's small hand as he cut spring onions from slender jade, feeling the smoothness of his skin, he couldn't help rubbing it.

"Don't play tricks, we'll be here soon." Jiang Yinqiu held back her shyness and pulled her hand back.

She was in a daze, and she thought it was amazing how it could become like this.

There are so many excellent seniors and juniors in the school who look down on them, but they treat Ma Liang very differently.

Maybe it's the wildness in him, or maybe it's the maturity in him that doesn't match his age.

From the first day of the orientation, this guy kept appearing in her mind inexplicably.Then came a series of various things, and the two became more and more familiar.

But what Jiang Yinqiu really appreciates is Ma Liang's unyielding stubbornness.

Although the family is poor, she has her own opinions. She has witnessed step by step through part-time jobs, setting up a stall, and now registering a company and preparing to open a store.

Ma Liang did not have the family background conditions of those so-called outstanding seniors, but he did not complain about himself, but kept his feet on the ground and worked hard step by step.

Could there be anything more inspiring than this?Could it be more exciting to witness all this with your own eyes?

Compared with those seemingly mature boys who are actually childish, Ma Liang does not have those illusory ambitions, nor does he have the problem of grandiose eyesight but low power.Instead, focus on the present and start small.

There is nothing else in this style, it only gives Jiang Yinqiu one feeling - down-to-earth.

All kinds of abnormal behaviors made her endlessly curious about the boy beside her.Even before going to bed at night, I would not consciously talk about Ma Liang with my roommate Liu Zhaojun.

Of course, because of this, she was teased by her roommates for eating young grass.

After all, she is already a junior, and Ma Liang is only a freshman.

Witnessing Ma Liang's struggle and hard work along the way, Jiang Yinqiu really wanted to help, and even wanted to get more involved.

Then it became like today's situation, Ma Liang even dared to touch her.

But if another boy is so presumptuous, even if Jiang Yinqiu has always been considerate in his dealings with others, he will definitely react coldly and turn his face on the spot.

But he just indulged Ma Liang step by step, making him push his limits.

Outsiders may not know it, but Jiang Yinqiu knows that with her conditions, not to mention Ma Liang, even the outstanding seniors in the school are far behind her.

According to her vision, it is very difficult for any classmate to win her favor.

But Ma Liang, an insignificant junior, made her care more and more.

I don't understand, I don't understand, some emotions are mysterious and mysterious, Jiang Yinqiu himself finds it very inconceivable.

Just when she was about to fall into Ma Liang's offensive again, the staff rescued her.

"Ma Liang, it's your turn." A boy wearing gold-rimmed glasses walked out of the meeting room and shouted, urging them to enter.

Jiang Yinqiu breathed a sigh of relief, calmed down, and walked in with Ma Liang.

As expected of a university student entrepreneurship foundation at the city level, the conference rooms are much larger than the SJ District Science and Technology Innovation Center last time, and there are five teachers in the review.

And indeed, as Jiang Yinqiu said, one of the reviewers named Wu Shenjun really came from an investment institution.

I saw the nameplate in front of Mr. Wu clearly stated the name of his institution—GSR Venture Capital.

It's not that Ma Liang was so familiar with the venture capital circle in his previous life. The main reason is that this investment institution was once so popular that he didn't even know him.

Although Mr. Wu has always been unknown, his other partner, Zhu Xiaohu, was well-known and well-known in his previous life.

Lao Zhu has invested in popular projects such as food delivery, taxi-hailing, live broadcasting, and sharing, and he has a keen eye for the early rounds such as the angel round or the A round. He is called a "unicorn catcher" by the industry.

People.com, Lashou.com, Inke, Ele.me, Didi, ofo, and Little Red Book are all written by him.

Although there were winners and losers, regardless of the company he invested in, Lao Zhu's figure was frequently featured in major media in those years, and he was once in the limelight in the venture capital circle and even the entire Chinese business world.

We must know that when Lao Zhu was the most swollen, he once directly faced off with the little pony brother of Goose Factory in the circle of friends because of the matter of which ofo or Mobike would win in the end.

I have to say that when people swell up, they don't even know how much they weigh.

So during that time, Ma Liang also heard news and gossip from Lao Zhu every day, and knew a lot about GSR Venture Capital.

Although it wasn't Zhu Xiaohu who came here today, he probably hasn't joined GSR Venture Capital yet, but it doesn't prevent Ma Liang from giving enough caution to this investment institution.

After all, they are professionals, unlike those retired old men last time, who don't understand anything.

"If you're ready, you can start!" The little brother with gold-rimmed glasses opened Ma Liang's PPT, and then urged again.

Ma Liang and Jiang Yinqiu stood side by side in front of the podium, like a couple in perfect harmony.

He and Jiang Yinqiu looked at each other, and then introduced generously: "Good afternoon, teachers, our project is called [Red Lips String Fragrance]."

As the saying goes, people are in good spirits on happy occasions, and Ma Liang, who has teased his senior sister, is in very good condition. This time, he performed at a super level in his speech.

From product to brand, from operation to finance, it is eloquent and eloquent.

The judges present were all shocked. This is not like a college student entrepreneur, even some mature entrepreneurs in the society do not have such a wonderful performance.

Even Wu Shenjun, one of the founders of Jinshajiang Venture Capital, looked at it and his eyes lit up.

As the saying goes, knowing a book by seeing a little, knowing a leaf from a leaf, can also judge a person's ability and realm from the side of the thinking logic of the speech.

Well-known investors like Wu Shenjun must know a truth: investing is investing in people.

If the people are right, more than half of the project will be completed; if the people are not right, no matter how good the track is, it will be useless.

So in his professional eyes, if you don't look at the ceiling of the [Red Lips String Fragrance] project, at least Ma Liang's ability will not fail, which makes him interested.

After all, he is not only a review expert invited by the College Student Entrepreneurship Foundation, but also an investment partner of a venture capital institution.

If he encounters a very good project, he is very willing to invest in it.

Within a few minutes, Ma Liang finished his project introduction: "Teachers, although Songjiang University Town is far away, the transportation is inconvenient.

But I believe it won't be long before I can open the shop to Wujiaochang.

At that time, all teachers are welcome to come to taste and guide.The above is the full introduction of our project, thank you! "

"Little Ma, your project is very good, and your thinking is so mature that you don't look like a college student entrepreneur.

But I only care about one question. If you have enough funds, how many stores can you open within a year? "Wu Shenjun asked impatiently.

As an angel investor, this is one of my favorite questions.

If investors plan to invest a sum of money, they are willing to ask how you plan to spend it.

If the founder doesn’t know how to spend the money or doesn’t spend it properly, wouldn’t he be blind for nothing? Then throw a hammer.

Ma Liang smiled and replied: "Mr. Wu, you'd better be more specific about this question.

What is sufficient funds?Isn't it endless?Obviously unreasonable, such a question cannot be answered accurately.

I just think Mr. Wu is interested in investing 500 million in me. If I have this fund, I can guarantee that I can open at least 20 stores within a year. "

"Are you so confident in yourself?" Wu Shenjun asked more curiously.

Ma Liang shook his head and said, "No, I'm not super confident in myself, but rather confident in my product and operating model.

I have already explained before that [Red Lips Chuan Chuan Xiang] is superb in terms of taste, delivery speed, and customer experience, completely killing the traditional mode of existing similar catering projects.

[Red Lips String Fragrance] is not only a new product, but also a subversive service innovation, and all my confidence comes from this. "

……

After Wu Shenjun finished asking, the other teachers asked seven or eight questions without hesitation.

After all, they are all real experts, and they can tell whether a project is good or bad.Compared with other entrepreneurial projects for college students, Ma Liang's [Red Lips String Fragrance] is perfect.

Although it is not a high-tech project, nor is it an Internet project, it is the first time even these teachers have seen the project so mature.

So they could only ask questions about the process, they had already voted for Ma Liang a PASS in their hearts.

"Student Jiang Yinqiu, right? I have a question. Please answer it seriously, can you?" Wu Shenjun asked endlessly, and he still asked Miss Jiang University.

For the co-founder of Ma Liang, as a veteran of Jianghu, he appreciates it very much.

And unlike other reviewers, as a professional investor, Wu Shenjun thinks more.

Jiang Yinqiu heard the words, and replied generously and decently: "Teacher Wu, please ask me!"

"Excuse me, are you two lovers?" Wu Shenjun finally asked the question he was most concerned about.

It's not that Mr. Wu is too gossip, nor is he thinking about Jiang Yinqiu.

But from the perspective of investment, whether the two partners of a project are lovers or not has a great influence.

　It's getting tense and I'm exhausted. Please support me!
　　When I wake up, I will continue.

　　As I said a long time ago, as long as my health is fine, I am generally not willing to be lazy.
