After divorce, I can hear the voice of the future

Chapter 97 The Woman Being Toyed With
Mobike’s financing has been finalized and Lu Liang is ready to leave.

However, before leaving, he saw that there were few people around Shen Peng, so out of politeness he decided to go over and say hello.

"Lu Liang, I thought you wouldn't come." Shen Peng smiled and was very friendly.

Lu Liang said with a smile: "Boss Shen, you didn't come over to join in the fun just now when there were too many people, but now you come over when there are fewer people."

Although it was Mobike's financing reception, many entrepreneurs seeking investment also came in.

After all, there aren’t so many big guys gathering here on ordinary days. If one of them is favored by someone, investing millions would be nothing but a drop in the bucket.

As a leading figure in the domestic venture capital industry, Shen Peng has a constant stream of people actively showing their goodwill to him, the only problem is that he has fewer talented people around him now.

Shen Peng laughed: "Boss Lu, this sounds like a bit of blame."

"If Mr. Shen thinks so, then I can't say anything."

Lu Liang smiled indifferently. He came over to say hello purely out of courtesy to his seniors, and he also had something to ask.

If Shen Peng thought of him as someone who was trying to please him, then there would be nothing to talk about.

Shen Peng adjusted his glasses, squinted his eyes, and put away his contempt: "Xiao Tang, how are you doing recently?"

"Xiao Tang?" Lu Liang was puzzled.

Shen Peng explained: "Tang Caidie was recruited by me to join Sequoia, and she followed me for several years. Later, I went to Yanjing and she stayed in Shanghai. The next time I heard from her, she had resigned."

"It's great. With Mr. Tang helping me manage the company, I feel much more relaxed."

Lu Liang couldn't help but look at Shen Peng a few times. He was probably in his forties or fifties this year.

Tang Caidie is thirty-seven years old. Although she has some wrinkles, you can still tell that she was a beauty when she was young.

Shen Peng looked at him unfriendly and coughed violently a few times, interrupting Lu Liang's unreasonable associations.

Lu Liang collected his thoughts and asked with a smile: "Boss Shen, there is one thing I don't understand, can you help me solve it?"

"speak."

The initial kindness on Shen Peng's face was no longer there, because he saw the shadow of an acquaintance in Lu Liang.

Zhu Hu of Jinshajiang, the two are known as the big and small kings of the investment world. Although they are also good friends, it does not prevent him from disliking Zhu Hu.

Zhu Hu is as fierce as his name suggests. He also likes to tell dirty jokes, which often embarrass him.

Lu Liang humbly asked: "Why did Sequoia sign a legal contract with Mobike?"

Although Li Bing is very arrogant and shamelessly claims that he forced Sequoia to invest in Mobike.

You can only believe half of this. No matter how great Li Bing is, he is definitely not as great as Shen Peng. The two are not even in the same league.

Even if Lei Jun saw Shen Peng, he had to call him senior.

In the past twenty years, if we were to select the most outstanding venture capitalists, Shen Peng would consider himself second, and no one would dare to claim to be first.

With the size of Sequoia Capital, it is entirely possible to forcibly suppress the top two players, forcing them to accept the situation, and then sit on the mountain and watch the fight between the two tigers, and have the last laugh.

There is no need to just bet on Mobike and leave yourself no way out.

Shen Peng smiled and said, "Mr. Lu, if I say that Sequoia's investment in Mobike is just a process and not a result, do you believe it?"

"Of course I will believe what Mr. Shen said." Lu Liang's mind was working rapidly. Process, whose process was it?

Suddenly, he thought of the battle between thousands of groups a few years ago. Meituan should be Shen Peng’s largest investment in recent years.

Compared with the investment in Meituan, which involves tens of millions of dollars each time, the investment in Mobike is just a drop in the bucket.

Investments are often accompanied by a bet contract. If Mobike wants Sequoia to make a sole bet and endorse it, it should pay the price of changing hands if it loses.

Considering what Shen Peng said that investing in Mobike is just a process, maybe Sequoia has already communicated with Meituan and is ready to take over Mobike in the future.

Once Meituan takes over Mobike, the Meituan shares held by Shen Peng will also increase in value significantly. After all, Meituan is the core project of Shen Peng's investment in recent years.

"Thank you, Mr. Shen." Lu Liang was very humble. He benefited a lot from today's financing reception.

The real big guys treat an industry as a chess piece, and they are not even the key chess piece that determines the outcome.

Li Bing used Mobike to pave the way for NIO, and Shen Peng was even more ruthless. He had already found a seller right after investing in the A round.

Shen Peng was surprised. He didn't expect Lu Liang to guess it so quickly. He exclaimed: "You will become an excellent investor."

"Thank you, Mr. Shen, for your kind words." Lu Liang smiled and had more questions to ask, but Shen Peng didn't want to answer anymore: "I'm leaving now."

He looked at Lu Liang for a long time, glared at him fiercely, and said unhappily: "If I take the initiative to ask you for your contact information, wouldn't it be a bit inappropriate?"

"How dare I? I was just thinking about what you said and didn't react for a moment." Lu Liang did not know whether to laugh or cry and hurriedly explained.

The two exchanged contact information, and Shen Peng was about to leave. Before leaving, he suddenly said, "Jinshajiang Lao Zhu is not a good person."

"Junior will keep this in mind." Lu Liang suddenly felt puzzled as to why he saw a strange smile in Shen Peng's eyes.

Just when I wanted to ask, Shen Peng had already left.

"Ofo will raise funds next Friday, and things are not going well."

Lu Liang thought about it for a long time but couldn't figure it out, so he decided not to dwell on it.

there is always a solution to a problem,
As if someone is a good person. After Lu Liang said hello to Li Bing and was about to leave, Hu Weiwei suddenly stepped forward and said, "Mr. Lu, I'm sorry."

"Mr. Hu, you don't have to apologize. If it were me, I would do the same. It's understandable." Lu Liang said with a smile.

"Thank you. Are you leaving? I'll see you off." Hu Weiwei breathed a sigh of relief, worried that Lu Liang would feel resentful.

"No need to see me off. After all, there are still many guests at the venue who need you to entertain them."

"Well then, Mr. Lu, take care."

"OK Bye Bye."

Lu Liang suddenly felt that Hu Weiwei was a bit pitiful, being toyed around by two, or even three men.

Mobike, which she founded and worked hard for, probably won't belong to her in the end. She might get a huge fortune, but what's the use?

With Mobike, Hu Weiwei is a domineering and beautiful president, but without Mobike, Hu Weiwei is just a rich woman.

After leaving the banquet hall on the sixth floor, Lu Liang brought Wen Chao to the downstairs of the hotel and saw Fang Shiyu sitting on the sofa in a daze from afar.

Seeing Lu Liang coming over, he stood up hurriedly, his posture as straight as an iron pillar: "Boss Lu, are you done?"

Chen Jinchun taught him a lot yesterday, including how to address Lu Liang when meeting him. At least outsiders should call him Mr. Lu.

Lu Liang nodded slightly and looked at Wen Chao: "Xiao Wen, go back to the company first and hand the subscription documents to Mr. Tang."

Wen Chao nodded and left. Lu Liang put his arm around his cousin, sat next to him, and asked with a smile, "How do you feel today?"

"A bit free."

Fang Shiyu responded in a muffled voice, very straightforward.

He stayed in the hall for the whole afternoon, and he didn't like playing with his phone, so he could only stare blankly.

"What else?" Lu Liang held back his smile.

"It still feels a bit uncomfortable." Fang Shiyu tugged at his collar.

Chen Jinchun bought him several suits. Although they fit him well, his chest muscles were too developed and made his shirt bulge.

Lu Liang couldn't help laughing and patted him on the shoulder: "Let's go, I'll buy you a few more suits later, and don't wear suits anymore."

He didn't even stipulate that the company must wear formal attire. God knows what Chen Jinchun was thinking, dressing his cousin up like a gangster.

"Okay." Fang Shiyu showed a simple and honest smile, which formed a sharp contrast with his muscular appearance.

Lu Liang found a Nike store on the side of the road and bought some sweatpants and a few Polo shirts.

But I found that I really can’t blame Chen Jinchun, after all, she is 189cm tall and weighs 206kg.

He can finish five bowls of rice in one meal. His size shows that he cannot keep a low profile even if he wants to.

No matter how he dresses, he looks like a gangster, so I just gave up and let him wear something comfortable.

"Brother, are we going home?" Fang Shiyu changed into new clothes and felt that his breathing became smoother. He was not good at speaking, so he could only remember Lu Liang's kindness to him silently in his heart.

"I'm not going back. I'm going to the community at Lane 306, Changle Road."

Lu Liang was just about to go home when he suddenly remembered that Zhang Qian's store was opening today. She had sent him a message last night, but he had forgotten about it because Mobike needed to raise funds.

Fang Shiyu set the navigation. It was the rush hour after work, and it was already seven o'clock in the evening when he arrived at Changle Road.

The pedestrian street was so crowded that vehicles could not enter, so the two brothers had to walk in.

Fang Shiyu walked next to Lu Liang, which was extremely oppressive, and passers-by automatically kept one meter away from him.

Lu Liang joked, "Yu, you don't even need a bodyguard."

"Brother, I can also be your bodyguard." Fang Shiyu said seriously.

"Okay then. From now on I'll rely on you to protect me." Lu Liang smiled, obviously not taking it seriously.

"Okay." Fang Shiyu nodded seriously.

During the conversation, the song "Good Days" was heard.

A new fast food restaurant called Haoshiyuan opened at the intersection ahead. Zhang Qian, wearing trousers, a shirt and a custom-made apron, was busy running around in the store.

There are five or six employees in the store, and more than twenty sets of tables and chairs. Each table can seat four people, and it is almost full. It can be seen that business today is very good.

I'm just not sure if they were attracted by the grand opening promotion. After all, there was a banner at the door saying that the food was half price for the first three days and a small bottle of Coke was given for free.

Lu Liang turned his head and asked, "Are you hungry?"

"Hungry." Fang Shiyu nodded.

It's not that he is stingy with words, but it's just his personality. Lu Liang is used to it: "Let's go, let's go eat."

Lu Liang passed by Zhang Qian when he entered the room. She was busy collecting plates and wiping the table with her head down, and did not notice Lu Liang coming over.

Lu Liang smiled and didn't disturb her. He took a plate for himself and also took one for Fang Shiyu.

He had seen his cousin's appetite yesterday, and one plate probably couldn't hold all the food.
