Prince charming, your persona has collapsed!-Chapter 955 - 405 Negotiation_2

Chapter 955 -405 Negotiation_2

Zhou Yuwen couldn’t help but chuckle twice after hearing this and said, there’s no need for unnecessary words.

“Mr. Lu, why don’t you tell me what conditions your company can offer?”

Zhou Yuwen got straight to the point. This made Lu Youcai feel more at ease. To be honest, Lu Youcai had experienced many business negotiations, but it was his first time discussing business with a nineteen-year-old.

So, Lu Youcai really didn’t know how to proceed, but this direct and straightforward approach suited him well.

He nodded and said sincerely, despite his young age, Mr. Zhou is an honest man.

“No wonder you’re the distinguished son-in-law appointed by the Jiang family. You’re quite different from others!”

Lu Youcai laughed heartily.

Zhou Yuwen only pursed his lips lightly at his words.

He shifted to a more comfortable position, crossing his legs.

Does one mention of being the Jiang family’s son-in-law dismiss all my talents?

Yet he heard Lu Youcai continue to seriously present his offer on the other side. Originally, the group’s internal valuation for Xianlin Takeout was set at 29 million, which was 4 million more than what Meituan offered.

But after attending the event this time, Lu Youcai had new thoughts, and he privately added 3 million more for Zhou Yuwen.

Just a small Xianlin Takeout, and Ele.me was willing to invest 32 million to acquire it, to also make friends with the business rising star Zhou Yuwen.

Besides a full acquisition, Ele.me had another option, which was to acquire 60% of the shares, leaving Zhou Yuwen with 10% in technical stocks, and hiring Zhou Yuwen as the CEO of Xianlin Takeout with an annual salary of one million.

In the future, Ele.me would specifically form a subsidiary for campus takeout and hand it over entirely to Zhou Yuwen for management.

After saying these things, Lu Youcai smiled at Zhou Yuwen and said: “Mr. Zhou, you can think carefully about the second proposal since, after all, becoming a CEO with an annual salary of a million before turning twenty is almost unheard of worldwide.”

Before he finished speaking, Zhu Hong’s voice rang out from the balcony, saying: “A nineteen-year-old college student with an annual salary of a million is indeed rare, but there are also not many in the world who go in for economic issues before turning twenty. Mr. Zhou, think twice before acting.”

The voice came before she arrived.

Turning around, he saw Zhu Hong, with her big wavy hair, already coming in with champagne and food.

Actually, Zhu Hong had been outside listening for quite a while just now. Although eavesdropping on others is unethical, it works.

Morals are for restraining gentlemen.

Zhu Hong is merely a woman.

As for Minmin, who was sent by Zhou Yuwen to fetch wine.

She could be bought off for a few hundred bucks.

Zhu Hong’s appearance was indeed charming, and she deliberately placed the champagne on the table, sweetly smiling and saying: “Here’s the champagne for you two.”

Lu Youcai, upon seeing Zhu Hong, immediately showed dissatisfaction: “Vice President Zhu, has Meituan now fallen to the point of having a distinguished vice president act as a champagne girl?”

Zhu Hong merely smiled sweetly at these words and said: “Delivering champagne is my personal action and unrelated to the group, much like my relationship with Yuwen. Besides business relations, I think we’re often more like friends, siblings, aren’t we?”

As she spoke, Zhu Hong threw a flirtatious glance at Zhou Yuwen.

Zhou Yuwen remained unfazed as Zhu Hong’s presence was not surprising.

After all, in the current situation, the university takeout resources he held could already be considered a cornering of the market.

Zhou Yuwen picked up the champagne Zhu Hong brought and said: “Since Sister Zhu is here, why not join us for a listen?”

“Of course, I also intended to.” Zhu Hong unabashedly pulled over a stool and sat down.

Lu Youcai felt quite dissatisfied upon hearing this and just as he was about to speak, Zhu Hong said: “What did Mr. Lu think, I’m just a little woman getting in the way here, right?”

This sentence further blocked Lu Youcai, and he could only smile coldly and say: “How could that be? Everyone knows that Meituan has such a formidable woman like you, becoming the head of the Southeast at a young age. Who would see you merely as a simple woman, Vice President Zhu?”

Zhu Hong smiled mildly: “Then I thank Mr. Lu for the compliment.”

After speaking, she raised her champagne, clinking it against the glass beside Lu Youcai.

All right, she clearly didn’t intend to leave after coming this time, bringing even three glasses of champagne.

Thirty-something Zhu Hong, mature as a ripe peach, was in her most charming phase as a woman, especially when she sat there casually, her graceful figure and sweet smile showing on her face.

What she just said immediately left Lu Youcai speechless, and he could only frown to express his dissatisfaction.

Zhou Yuwen asked Zhu Hong what she meant by the topic of going in due to economic issues she just mentioned.

Zhu Hong lounged back on the chair and first savored a sip of champagne.

Having studied abroad, she was deeply influenced by Western culture, and at such moments, she should indeed display a different identity to stir up things, this time was just perfect.

The April weather, with just a breeze, made one feel lazy and dozy.

Especially on the third-floor terrace, with several white clouds in the blue sky.

In the distance was the landscaped residential greenery.

Zhu Hong first sighed how good the weather was today.

Lu Youcai adjusted his glasses and said: “Mr. Zhou, we shouldn’t pay her any mind, a few months ago, if it wasn’t for Meituan’s arrogance due to its big presence, I don’t think Mr. Zhou would have innocently spent millions on promotion fees.”

“Mr. Lu, that’s not right. A few months ago, indeed, in order to capture the market, we raised the rider’s commission, but didn’t Ele.me follow suit?” Zhu Hong immediately retorted.

Lu Youcai then said: “That was because your group’s Mr. Wang put pressure on us to raise it. If it weren’t for your group, neither we nor Mr. Zhou would have had to increase the rider’s treatment to reach such an unreachable level!”

“Oh, Mr. Lu, what is done must be acknowledged. Since Mr. Lu brought up Mr. Zhou’s millions in promotion fees, I suggest Mr. Lu reimburse these millions as well. That’s what I call sincerity,” Zhu Hong first chuckled twice, then said.

She then raised an eyebrow towards Zhou Yuwen and said: “Right, Mr. Zhou? How much must Mr. Zhou have spent on promotion recently.”

Zhou Yuwen lowered his head to eat some fruit, not looking at the expressions of the two, and said casually: “Not much, just seven million.”

While saying this, in fact, both Lu Youcai and Zhu Hong’s expressions had some subtle changes.

Seven million.

Ele.me already offered Zhou Yuwen 32 million, plus another seven million.

That’s 39 million?

Why don’t you just rob outside, Zhou Yuwen!?

Lu Youcai directly cursed in his heart.

And Zhu Hong raised an eyebrow too, thinking this little rascal really isn’t easy to deal with.

Before coming, she had done her homework; Zhou Yuwen’s early promotion, all counted, was just five million.

With one sentence, you made an extra two million.

Zhou Yuwen picked up a piece of cantaloupe, eating it over there, and looked up to see the expressions of the two, feeling puzzled: “What, do you two still have an interest in acquiring my takeout company?”

“Seven million isn’t much, how about this, Mr. Zhou? I’ll give you a round number. I’ll give you a valuation of 40 million, then acquire 60% of your shares, and also hire you to be the CEO of our Ele.me’s campus area, with an annual salary of one million plus bonuses!” Lu Youcai said directly.

Zhou Yuwen nodded while listening, smiling slightly and saying: “Ele.me surely is generous, forty million just like that.”

While saying this, he looked towards Zhu Hong.

Zhu Hong said: “A valuation of forty million, but actually only receiving over twenty million, plus taking on a CEO position comes with legal risks. Who knows if Ele.me might undermine from the ground up later. Mr. Zhou, being alone and weak, can you really handle it?”

“Zhu Hong! Don’t go too far with your bullying!” Lu Youcai angrily slapped the table.

What?

Are a woman’s tactics just to pester disruptively!?
