"Peng Yuchen wants to see me?"

Lin Yi heard the news conveyed by Gu Caiwei on the phone, because after their mother and daughter went to find Peng Yuchen, he left the house.

He thought back to the woman who only had one side, and the two never crossed paths since, and he didn't know why she suddenly found herself?

It doesn't always feel like a good thing.

However, whether it was a good thing or a bad thing, Lin Yi couldn't go to the appointment for the time being, and he apologized to Gu Caiwei and said: "I'm sorry Xiaowei, please tell Peng Yuchen that I have left Shencheng in an emergency, if I am not in a hurry, I will visit her next time I come over." ”

Yes, Lin Yi was already on his way to the airport when they made this call, because an important news had just come from the capital.

And it's not good news.

Gu Caiwei immediately expressed her understanding, because Peng Yuchen did not ask to meet immediately.

It was late at night when Lin Yi landed in the capital, but he immediately went to find Liu Jianni, and when he arrived there, the senior sister who stayed behind was already waiting there.

He didn't have time to say hello, and when he entered the door, he asked directly, "How is the situation?" ”

Liu Jianni shared what she heard again: "Eleme's Series C financing has been negotiated, $15 million, which will be announced tomorrow, and the money will be on their account at the same time." ”

"Who voted for it?"

"Redhill Capital."

Lin Yi remembered the scene of encountering Zhang Xuhao in the corridor that day, it seems that the amiable Shen Ju finally chose to make a college brother instead of his own forcible fellow.

There was still a hint of luck in his heart: "Can you be sure?" ”

Then he was immediately crushed by Liu Jianni: "Investors are veterans, and they pay great attention to confidentiality when talking about projects, and Hongshan is even more experienced." ”

"What's more, we are competitors in the first place, and they are deliberately guarding against us, so I didn't hear about it until today."

She raised her hand and looked at the table below: "This time I got it from a friend in the media, and you will be able to see the press announcement from both sides early tomorrow morning." ”

Well, Lin Yi immediately accepted this reality.

"How's it going on on our side?"

Liu Jianni shook her head: "It's the same as before." ”

Senior Sister interjected and asked, "We started preparations before Lin Yi and Jianguo went south to Shencheng, why did the progress of Hungry go faster?" ”

Liu Jianni explained: "They negotiated more smoothly with investors, and according to the information I received, they and Hongshan actually still have differences in valuation, but Zhang Xuhao chose to compromise on valuation by giving up a little less stake in order to get the money as soon as possible." ”

Zhang Xuhao is really decisive.

Lin Yi knew that the reason why he was lagging behind was mainly because he had not negotiated the valuation, and he had always wanted to get a little more financing.

1 million to 3 million, and 5 million to 15 million, it seems to be 1:3 in terms of proportion, but the account can't be counted like this. The former is 2 million less, the latter is 10 million less, dollars!

The casual financing progress was originally a full round later than Hungry, and it cannot be said that it was completely the responsibility of the casual side to be the first to be preempted this time, but it was indeed the most successful one for Zhang Xuhao to follow.

Lin Yi guessed that he might not have made up his mind so quickly because of himself, could it also be stimulated by Wang Huiwen's knock on the door?

Anyway, now the pressure is on the casual side.

This time, Liu Jianni no longer had any scruples, she asked in front of her senior sister, "Is there any news from each group?" ”

Lin Yi had discussed with his senior sister before not telling Liu Jianni for the time being, because this investor obviously had his own position on this matter.

Although she has the right to veto the financing decision of Casual Takeaway, Lin Yi and the others never want such a decision to be interfered with by her.

So Lin Yi still hid the news of Wang Huiwen's visit from her.

The next morning, Lin Yi really saw the news that Hongshan Capital officially invested in Eleme, because the former's status in the rivers and lakes was there, and this time various science and technology media published or reprinted it one after another.

Hungry was already famous, and it was popular once in the event two months ago, don't forget that Zhang Xuhao of the Youth Daily was on the same time as Lin Yi.

This time, with the platform and endorsement of Hongshan Capital, plus 15 million US dollars is no longer a small amount, Eleme suddenly became a star company in the entrepreneurial world.

Lin Yi briefly flipped through the headlines of various reports: "Hongshan Capital Enters the Game, Optimistic About the Takeaway Industry to Open a Trillion Market", "Hungry Financing $15 Million, Will the Takeaway Rivers and Lakes Change?" "Shen Ju Lao invested in Zhang Xuhao, Jiaotong University Entrepreneurship Gang Fills in Another Tiger General"......

Damn, the more I watch, the more annoying it gets!

That night, Lin Yi and the three of them took all the city managers to a meeting again, and this time the atmosphere was a little heavy.

Some time ago, although I was nervous about fighting with Hungry for a while, I didn't fall into a disadvantage, so everyone was in a relaxed mood, and seeing this news today was like a bolt from the blue!

They all knew that Lin Yi and his senior sister had been staying in the capital recently to run financing, although they didn't dare to ask, but they couldn't help but care about it.

Shi Jianrui from Yangcheng had the farthest relationship with them, so he asked bluntly: "Are you hungry and you will definitely not give up when you get the money, when will our money be in place?" ”

The more difficult it is, the more you can't be miserable, Lin Yi is full of confidence to cheer up his subordinates: "If you are hungry, you will definitely take action, and you will have to work hard during this time." ”

"But it's only temporary, and our financing will arrive soon, I promise you!"

Although a little morale buff was added to them, the mouth cannon couldn't be used as money after all, and they waited for Zhang Xuhao's shot the next day.

Ele.me announced on the website and APP on the same day that it launched a half-month "end-of-term special" campaign, announcing that it would send benefits and warmth to school students before the start of the summer vacation, and this time the scope was all the cities that Ele.me had already entered.

At the same time, Zhang Xuhao also announced through the media that Ele.me is preparing for a new round of Kaicheng plan, and the scale will exceed any previous time, and it may be stationed in double-digit cities at one time.

What do you say about this lively energy?

Even the job board is filled with a large number of job openings from Ele.me, proving that their massive expansion plans are not just talk.

Being rich is so arrogant!

In particular, what made Lin Yi feel congested was that the name of the "end-of-term special" event was still reminding him of the fact that Wang Huiwen had said.

Summer vacation is coming.

In the past two days, Lin Yi and his senior sister were of course not idle, they followed Liu Jianni to visit the investors who had been interested in the past again to negotiate again, and directly pushed the negotiations to the substantive stage.

Although they try to be as calm as possible, sophisticated investors know how anxious they are right now just by watching the news, and their negotiating position will naturally be greatly reduced at this time.
