Zhou Chen returned his gaze to the newspaper and continued reading.
These days, there are too many people who want to visit him, but except for a few people who have to meet, he has never seen the rest of them.
There are also many people who come to visit him on the Yellow River Road, especially the proprietresses of big hotels. They all want to see Zhou Chen and hope that Zhou Chen can put the second venture capital conference in their hotel, but these people Zhou Chen Not a single one was seen.
Among them was Lu Meilin. Lu Meilin came to see Zhou Chen. One was to thank Zhou Chen, and the other was to ask Zhou Chen to again choose the location of the second venture capital conference in Jin Meilin, and also promised that it would be held in Jin Meilin when the time comes. After being closed for a few days, the interior of Jin Meilin was renovated.
But Zhou Chen didn't give her an answer. This woman was a bit too snobbish, too easy to get carried away and greedy, and wanted to get every benefit for herself.
Jin Meilin's business is booming these days. Sometimes even at twelve o'clock, there are still customers there, and the daily turnover will never be less than 100,000.
But even so, half a month has passed, and the 300,000 yuan in the IOU that Du Honggen wrote before has still not been returned.
He made money, but he didn't want to pay it back, and he wanted to use his name to advertise for Jin Meilin. He really had a good calculation and was greedy.
So Zhou Chen was too lazy to pay attention to her now, and Jin Meili was the first one he excluded.
However, he is still very satisfied with the fire he set on Yellow River Road. The current Yellow River Road is definitely more lively and popular than in the TV series. When the Zhizhen Garden opens soon, the Yellow River Road will be even more lively. It’s lively.
Zhou Chen is really looking forward to that scene. In this world, he has more of a playful mentality and has no ambition.
Ever since the day of the venture capital meeting, Chenxing Venture Capital Company on Nanjing Road has been crowded with people every day. Countless people are stuck in the company every day, and the phone calls are always being filled.
It is no exaggeration to say that Chenxing Venture Capital is now definitely one of the most famous companies in Shanghai, and it is also the target of countless entrepreneurs and businessmen in urgent need of funds.
But unlike the investment orders signed on the day of the venture capital meeting, investing in a company requires a complete process, including review, calculation, etc., so even if half a month has passed, the investment orders signed by Chenxing Company have not yet been signed by venture capital investors. There will be many meetings in one day.
Regarding the second venture capital conference, seeing that it was not far from Double Twelve, Zhou Chen had not announced the address yet, and the boss ladies on Huanghe Road were going crazy with anxiety. They asked people everywhere to inquire about the information and wanted to meet Zhou Chen.
Jinxian Road.
If you want to say which is the most popular restaurant on Jinxian Road right now, there is no doubt that it must be Guichengxuan Hotel.
No one can see Zhou Chen now, but many people want to get closer to Zhou Chen, so they can only ask the people closest to Zhou Chen for help.
And who has the closest relationship with Zhou Chen in the entire Shanghai Bund must be Zhou Chen's uncle, Huang Degui.
As a result, as soon as Guichengxuan opened the door, people would come to eat, and most of them would ask about Mr. Zhou's affairs. This made Huang Degui really sad and happy.
For businessmen, the happiest thing is making money, but the most painful thing is seeing the money right in front of them but not being able to earn it at all.
This is the pain Huang Degui is experiencing now, because after all, the space in Guichengxuan is limited and cannot accommodate too many guests.
At another restaurant on Jinxian Road, at the entrance of Night Tokyo, Reiko looked at Guichengxuan, which was bustling with people, and her teeth were sore.
He pushed the door open depressedly and walked back to Night Tokyo. He saw Abao and others chatting in the store. He suddenly became angry and went up to hit Abao.
"Why did you hit me?"
Abao, who was hit for no apparent reason, suddenly screamed.
Lingzi said angrily: "How dare you ask me? Look at our place. Not many people come here now. They all go to Guichengxuan. I think your reputation as Mr. Bao is no longer good enough."
Abao said with an indifferent expression: "It's other people's business if their business is good. They do other people's business, and I do my business. Why should I compare with others?"
Reiko said sourly: "How long has it been since Guichengxuan came to Jinxian Road? It has become the most popular meal spot now. Night Tokyo has been here for three years, and now it can't even compare to other people's fingernails. Do you think I can do it?" Don't be angry."
Tao Tao chuckled and said, "Lingzi, don't worry. Mr. Zhou is very angry now. He has suppressed A Bao's reputation. It's useless for you to worry."
"You still have the nerve to say that. I see that you have been going to Guichengxuan these days. Are you planning to curry favor with others?" Reiko asked.
Tao Tao retorted loudly: "I was going to deliver seafood, okay? Now Guichengxuan is a big customer of ours, and our recent seafood sales are extremely good. Speaking of which, I have to thank Mr. Zhou, Huanghe There are a lot more people on the road now, and the demand for seafood has also increased."
Teacher Ge shook his head and said: "Mr. Zhou's reputation is really great now. Even I, a person who doesn't know anything, have been hearing his name all the time recently, spreading millions and millions. Treat money as money.”
Tao Tao added: "The second venture capital conference will start again on the 12th. By then, Huanghe Road will definitely be very busy and explode again. I will also go to see the excitement that day. Speaking of which, I will also eat Mr. Zhou’s cigarettes are gone, and we are also friends.”
These words aroused the contempt of Teacher Ge, Ling Hong and others: "Forget it, they know who you are, and we still have friendship."
"You have no idea that Mr. Zhou is not difficult to get along with at all. He is very easy to talk to..."
Tao Tao just likes to brag, but he didn't brag this time because when he chatted with Zhou Chen last time, Zhou Chen was really polite and not arrogant at all.
Lingzi pulled Abao to the side and asked: "What on earth are you thinking about? Just look at Mr. Zhou getting rich, and then look at Night Tokyo. The business was not very good in the first place, and now it is even worse."
Abao rolled his eyes: "Where did you see him getting rich? I don't know if he will get rich in the future, but last time he invested almost nine million, and it's not easy to get this money back. thing."
"As for business in Ye Tokyo, isn't it always like this? Don't be anxious, take your time."
He has a good mentality and doesn't care about the limelight, because Zhou Chen is now engaged in investing, and he is engaged in stocks and foreign trade. There is actually no conflict between the two, and there may even be opportunities for cooperation, let alone talk between them. Take on opponents and enemies.
Lingzi sighed helplessly: "I am really the emperor who is not anxious and the eunuch is anxious. You are the big boss and you are not anxious anymore. What else can I do, I can only watch Guichengxuan make a fortune."
Po has long been used to Reiko's whining, so he doesn't mind it at all.
"There's no need to be jealous of others. You can't make enough money. I also have an order recently. I don't care about anything else. When I finish this order, I can make a lot of money."
Recently, he is discussing cooperation with Mr. Fan from Huxi Knitting Factory. If this order is completed, it will make a lot of money, so his main focus is on this now. As for Zhou Chen's venture capital meeting, he just Be a spectator, envious but not jealous.
He is self-aware. His main business is foreign trade. By the way, he also adds a stock fleet and Zhou Chen's investment business. He does not have the financial resources and ability to do it, because in his opinion, the investment recovery period is too long. , and the risk is also very high, which is not in line with the strategies of him and his uncle.
It’s been almost a month since Chenxing Venture Capital was established, but look at how many people in the market dare to imitate Zhou Chen’s operating model?
The investment is high, the risk is high, and without enough funds and power, it is impossible to do well in this industry.
There are even many people in the business circle who are waiting to see Zhou Chen's joke, because in their view, investment companies like Zhou Chen can't see any profit at all, they only see money being thrown away. Who do you think you are? People, what kind of business can you invest in and what kind of business will succeed?
If you really have this kind of vision, why invest in others? Wouldn't it be better to do it yourself?
Anyway, in the eyes of many people, Zhou Chen's approach is simply thankless. It is simply a waste of money. What's more derogatory is that people are stupid and have too much money.
Although Zhou Chen made a lot of noise and even boosted the economy of Huanghe Road, in the end it did not fall into his own hands. It was completely equivalent to free advertising for Huanghe Road.
Even though Mr. Zhou's name is now spread throughout Shanghai, in the eyes of those who value profits, it is useless if he cannot make money.
Many businessmen today believe that keeping a low profile is the last word in making money, and they have not yet realized the importance of fame and influence.
With Zhou Chen's current reputation and influence, if he really wanted to cash it out, he would have countless ways to cash it out, but he didn't have the idea for the time being.
What do banknotes mean to him? When he leaves this world, he can't take anything with him. Now he is alone again. He has no wife or children in this world. How can he not spend the money he earns but keep it for others?
As Double Twelve is approaching, all kinds of rumors are spreading. There is even a boss lady on the Yellow River Road who said that as long as Zhou Chen is willing to hold the second venture capital conference in her hotel, she is willing to give Zhou Chen a sponsorship fee of 200,000 yuan. If Zhou Chen goes to eat, it will always be free.
After these words came out, more and more rumors came out. Some people offered 300,000 yuan, some 500,000 yuan, and even more exaggerated sponsorship fees of 1 million yuan came out...
Just when many proprietresses on Huanghe Road were looking forward to it, on December 10th, Zhou Chen sent people directly to Huanghe Road, went straight to Honglu, and negotiated cooperation with Honglu.
The second venture capital conference will be held in Honglu.
As soon as the news came out, there was an explosion on Huanghe Road. Countless hotel owners and proprietresses scolded Zhou Chen behind his back. Even Lu Meilin scolded him countless times behind his back. Of course, Zhou Chen would not know about these. Even if he knew, he would only know Treat them like a fart.
After Honglu received Zhou Chen's notice, he immediately began to prepare.
(End of this chapter)
Chapter 1303 The plot begins, Zhizhen Garden opens!
With the success of the first venture capital fair, the second venture capital fair held one month later was obviously more lively than the first one, with more people coming.
Although there were more advertisements the first time, most of them were only within Shanghai, but this time it was different.
Last month, nearly nine million yuan was actually thrown away. Who wouldn't be tempted by cash and silver?
So this time it’s not just entrepreneurs and businessmen from around Shanghai who came here. After a month of fermentation, many outsiders also came to the Yellow River Road, including many companies from all over the country, who also came to seek investment. , after all, the last investment of more than 6 million shocked many people.
It turns out that Chenxing Venture Capital not only invests in entrepreneurs, but also invests in mature companies, so companies that are in urgent need of funds for development also come to try their luck.
This also resulted in the second Double 12 Venture Capital Conference being more lively than the first one.
The Yellow River Road was already extremely congested last time, and this time it was even worse. On Double Twelve, the Yellow River Road became the busiest and most congested road in Shanghai.
A large number of traffic police and civilian police gathered along the entire Huanghe Road, trying their best to maintain order.
Although a lot of people gathered in Jin Meilin, the proprietress Lu Meilin still looked unhappy. If Zhou Chen could always hold venture capital meetings in her Jin Meilin, then Jin Meilin would definitely become the most profitable restaurant on Huanghe Road.
But Zhou Chen didn't say a word to her at all this time, and chose Red Heron instead, which made her angry and jealous, and even cursed in her heart.
She is the most unhappy of all the proprietresses of the Huanghe Road restaurant. Although the other proprietresses are envious, they are in a much better mood than her.
Zhou Chen's doing this means that Jin Meilin is not irreplaceable. If there is a third or fourth term in the future, he may fall into their hotel, so although there is no one this time, they are not in such a mood. Oops.
This time it was more lively and there were more people, so the time of the venture capital meeting was changed from 9 am to 7 pm, which was extended by two hours.
With the success of the first one, the second venture capital fair was naturally much smoother, eliminating a lot of time that might have been wasted, and giving many entrepreneurs and business people more time.
Although there are many more people seeking investment this time, there are also fewer people watching the excitement, because the first time many people came here to see Zhou Chen’s operating model, but now they understand Zhou Chen’s operation, the second time naturally Won't come again.
On December 12th, the excitement on Huanghe Road did not subside all day long. Until twelve o'clock at night, there were still many people staying in the hotel, talking about what happened during the day.
Compared with the first venture capital fair, this second venture capital fair finally met the investment target ten times. Compared with the first time, the investment amount this time exceeded the tens of millions mark and reached one thousand. More than two million.
The two companies that invested the most were one with 3.23 million yuan and the other with 4.76 million yuan. The one with the least investment was a couple who opened a breakfast shop, only 10,000 yuan.
But they got 10,000 yuan, and they were even happier than others who got tens of millions.
Everyone’s dream is different. For the couple, opening a breakfast shop is their biggest wish, so even if they only have 10,000 yuan, it is enough for them to open a breakfast shop, so they have more money than others. People who invest seem even more excited.
After the second venture capital fair, someone asked again when the third venture capital fair would be held, but Zhou Chen did not give an answer this time. He just said that if there is a third venture capital fair, it will be After the Spring Festival next year, this will make many entrepreneurs and business people who did not get the opportunity extremely disappointed.
More than 20 million yuan was spent in two venture capital meetings. This speed of distributing money caused a sensation in Shanghai.
After all, all this money came from Zhou Chen alone, and Chenxing Venture Capital was founded by Zhou Chen alone. At least in the eyes of many people, Zhou Chen is just throwing money away, and if he wants to make a profit, he still doesn’t know that it will be until the Year of the Monkey and the Horse. Whether Chenxing Venture Capital can persist until then is uncertain.
Zhou Chen ignored the outside discussions. After the second venture capital conference, he left Shanghai with a loan of 50 million from the bank.
That's right, he borrowed 50 million from the bank and planned to go to Shenzhen and the north. After returning to Shanghai this time, he made several operations and spent tens of millions, and the cash flow was almost exhausted, so I plan to go to Big Brother again before the year to make some money.
Originally, Zhou Chen did not have any more hard assets in Shanghai, so it was difficult for him to borrow so much at one time. However, he is now famous, has strong connections in the city, and is highly valued by the leaders, so ICBC gave him 5,000 yuan. Thousands of loans.
Zhou Chen set off in December and stayed with Big Brother for nearly a month. Then he went to Hong Kong and solved his needs with Xuezhi.
It has been less than three months since he last left Hong Kong, and the renovation of the restaurant is still going on. Because he wants to decorate a unique restaurant, so if he wants to meet the standards, the construction period of the project will be relatively long, at least three or four months. It is difficult to decorate in a month.
Xuezhi's spirit is completely different from when she was a waitress at the Peninsula Hotel. Although the restaurant has not yet opened, she is already the boss's wife after all. In addition to focusing on decoration, she is also learning the knowledge of restaurant management. I also often go to other restaurants to visit and learn, etc.
So in the past few months, even if Zhou Chen was not with her, she had lived a very fulfilling life. She had her own things to do every day and was full of energy.
After Zhou Chen arrived in Hong Kong, he specially took her to the hospital for a full physical examination. After making sure that she had no disease, he was relieved and asked her to pay attention to her safety.
Although he has no feelings for Xuezhi and only has physiological needs, she is his main mission target after all. Before the mission is completed, he must ensure that nothing happens to Xuezhi.
The twenty-sixth day of the twelfth lunar month!
In 1993, Huanghe Road was more lively than in previous years. After two venture capital fairs, the number of people on Huanghe Road increased dramatically. Therefore, on the eve of the lively Spring Festival, the restaurant business on Huanghe Road was even more booming.
No matter how the Yellow River Road changes, Jingxiu's cigarette paper shop has always been as stable as Mount Tai. Today he also came to the pavilion early.
Although the restaurants on Huanghe Road mainly open at noon and evening, and there are relatively few people in the morning, Jingxiu is used to it and comes early every day for business.
After sorting out the goods, I went back to the pavilion and sat down. In the morning, there were many people passing by to buy cigarettes.
"Boss, give me a pack of cigarettes."
Jing Xiu raised his head and saw a familiar figure. He was surprised and said: "Hey, boss lady, long time no see. Is it opening soon?"
This woman was Li Li who had come here to ask him about Golden Phoenix before. He had also long ago found out that it was this Li Li who took over Golden Phoenix, and he was right next to Golden Phoenix. He could see Golden Phoenix under construction every day. That's why I ask this question.
Li Li replied: "Soon."
"Call me when it opens." Jingxiu said suddenly.
Li Li turned around and smiled: "Definitely."
Looking at Li Li's back, Jing Xiu sighed happily: "The iron-clad Yellow River Road, the running water of the landlady, a golden phoenix has left, and a plum leopard has arrived. Now the Yellow River Road will probably be even more lively."
The proprietress of Liushui on Huanghe Road is really not talking nonsense. In the past two months, ever since Zhou Chen lit the fire on Huanghe Road and made Huanghe Road popular on the beach, the proprietress of the hotel on Huanghe Road has changed at least twenty times, including Several big hotels.
Of course, the largest hotel on Huanghe Road is the Golden Phoenix. Now that the largest hotel is about to open, it is impossible to imagine that Huanghe Road is not bustling.
"Who is this woman?"
"She is the new boss lady, and she is the one who captured the Golden Phoenix."
"Really, I don't know how many people coveted the Golden Phoenix, but they were actually taken over by her. It seems that this woman is not simple."
The appearance of Li Li also made many people passing by feel curious, because Li Li is indeed a woman with a strong aura. She is beautiful and can dress well. She is beautiful and gorgeous, and can easily attract the attention of others.
Ruth, Red Heron's waiter, came to Jingxiu's pavilion. She was still very familiar with Jingxiu.
"Is she the new boss lady?"
"Yeah, if you really want to talk about it, without me, this store wouldn't exist."
Of course what he was talking about was that three months ago, Li Li came to ask him about things. When Li Li asked him which restaurant was the most profitable, he said Golden Phoenix without hesitation.
Ruth started gossiping with everyone.
