Chapter 557 Make 1 friends
After hearing Xue Buqun's explanation, Zhou Shirong's gaze shifted. He silently watched the tall and straight young man walk into the venue with the Internet ceiling.
When he returned to China, the group was in a low-key period.
As the behind-the-scenes promoter of the food delivery industry, Gu Ming is anxious to start the fire, but he is not making many big moves.
So Zhou Shirong didn't know this person, he just felt that he looked familiar and his name sounded familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had heard or seen him.
"Uncle, everyone has entered the venue, shall we go in too?"
Duan Wenzhao couldn't hold himself back when he saw the big guys entering the venue.
"Well, let's go."
Zhou Shirong looked at Xue Manzi and said, "Boss Xue, please go first."
Xue Manzi nodded and walked forward.
After entering the infield, there are really big guys everywhere, and there are as many elites as dogs.
If you scatter some melon seeds here, you will definitely hit someone with a net worth of over 1 billion.
Zhou Shirong came into the venue, picked up his wine glass, and began to look around. He found that many people's eyes were beginning to gather in the same direction.
And in the center of all attention, under the light was Gu Ming, who had just entered the venue and was shaking hands cordially with some people who were walking towards him.
To be honest, in recent years, those doing Internet business cannot avoid the BAT curse. The only one who can go against 11 companies and fight to the death and still grow bigger is Gu Ming.
The key point is that he is only 2 years old.
In this circle, most people are elderly, and people under 3 are rare. Naturally, someone as extraordinary as Gu Ming will become the focus.
Xue Manzi was whispering at the side: "That's Ding from NetEase, Zhou from 360, Li from TCL, and Cao from Sina..."
The people he introduced were all on Gu Ming's path. Wherever he went, people turned around and shook hands with Gu Ming, clinked glasses with him, or patted each other on the shoulders.
"Let's go. Let me introduce you to Mr. Lei from Xiaomi Technology. He is also very famous in the angel investor circle."
"Excuse me, Boss Xue."
Zhou Shirong walked over with a glass of wine, and following Xue Manzi's introduction, they began to shake hands and exchange greetings.
Hurricane Capital is a very old venture capital institution in China. Although it has not done much in recent years, it is still quite famous in the industry.
Everyone shook hands with Zhou Shirong and smiled warmly.
This is how this circle works. Venture capital CEOs who have the ability to invest in commercial brands are always welcome guests wherever they go.
Although Zhou Shirong is not very familiar with the domestic business environment, he has a deep pocket and therefore has many friends.
"What were you talking about just now? I see that you were very energetic."
Xue Manzi was a little curious about the topic they just discussed.
"Lao Ma is talking about his cloud computing again. He has been working on it for so many years and has not achieved any results. I guess there are many people waiting to see the joke. This thing has not even been made abroad."
"Hey, this time it's different. Gu Ming is quite interested in his cloud computing."
"These two people fought so hard in the market, but I didn't expect that they would be able to piss in this aspect?"
"Oh, by the way, Lao Zhang, have you met Gu Ming before?"
"I've never seen him before, but this time I had a feeling, he's really young. Damn, if I were as young as him, I would go against Ma and start an e-commerce business!"
"Mr. Lei seems to have joined Jinshan at this age, right?"
"That's right. I joined Kingsoft when I was 2, which is about the same age as Mr. Jiang now. But I became the CEO at the age of 2, so I can't compare with him."
"They are all monsters anyway, unlike us old guys who have worked hard for most of our lives to achieve some results."
Zhou Shirong listened silently for a while and found that everyone seemed to be talking about Jiang Qin, so he couldn't help but turn his eyes to the venue again, looking at the young man who seemed to be surrounded by a halo.
At this time, Gu Ming had just finished talking about cloud computing with Ma Yun. After they parted, they met another Mr. Ma, a low-key and introverted middle-aged man.
Both parties smiled faintly, shook hands cordially, chatted about the follow-up development of WeChat, had a pleasant conversation, and then parted.
Soon, half of the cocktail party was over. Zhou Shirong had been paying attention to Gu Ming and found that there were almost always people surrounding him and greeting him, so he couldn't help but want to make friends with him.
It is said that this person has a large number of national brands in his hands, and the group buying supply chain is now getting bigger and bigger, which will be a great help to Zhoushi Group's [Joy City] project.
However, Xue Manzi himself didn’t know Gu Ming, so Zhou Shirong found Lei Jun, the CEO of Xiaomi Technology.
It is very normal for the investment circle to introduce each other, and Mr. Lei was also happy to be a middleman, but when they walked over, Gu Ming had disappeared.
"Boss Liu, where is Boss Gu?"
Liu Qiangdong turned to look at Lei Jun: "Oh, he just answered the phone and left."
Lei Jun was a little surprised: "The cocktail party is only halfway through. There are still some other activities later. Why are you leaving now?"
"It should be his wife who called. I was close just now and I heard a female voice asking him when he would be back. It sounded a bit coquettish."
"Mr. Gu already has a wife at such a young age? I thought they were just spreading rumors."
Liu Qiangdong glanced at Lei Jun and said, "Didn't you and your wife also get together in college? They may not be married yet, but judging from the speed with which Mr. Gu evacuated, there is nothing wrong with the future wife. However, she is well protected and has never appeared in public. It is said that she is not used to being in public."
Lei Jun patted him on the shoulder: "Did you see that those who have a successful career love their wives as much as they live? I also met Mr. Ma's wife in college."
Liu Qiangdong smiled and turned to look at Zhou Shirong: "Who is this?"
"The current head of Zhou Group, Mr. Zhou."
"Oh, it's Mr. Zhou. Mr. Qin and I knew each other before and we had business dealings several times."
Zhou Shirong nodded slightly: "Boss Liu, I've heard of your great name for a long time."
Lei Jun looked at Liu Qiangdong and said, "Mr. Zhou asked me to be the middleman and introduce you and Gu Ming to him, but now one of you is gone."
"It's okay. Mr. Gu and I have an appointment. After the meeting at noon tomorrow, we will have dinner together in the evening. Mr. Lei and Mr. Zhou can sit together then. I'll sit in the east seat."
"Tomorrow night, okay, is Mr. Zhou free?"
Zhou Shirong nodded: "Of course I have time, but since we are in Shanghai, we can't let Mr. Liu host the party. I'll host it. I know a restaurant that serves delicious local cuisine."
As time went by, the reception was not completely over, but there were already many people leaving early.
These business tycoons all have their own small circles. They come to the cocktail party just to meet some new faces and brag. The real business negotiations actually take place in small venues outside the cocktail party.
Zhou Shirong also left the banquet hall at this time, took Duan Wenzhao back to the car, and headed towards Sheshan Manor.
"Do you know that Gu Ming?"
"Of course I understand, uncle. The group is currently doing takeout, and the momentum is very strong, but the foundation of meals is more stable and solid. I am not afraid of him."
Duan Wenzhao raised the corner of his mouth: "After receiving your investment, the meal will enter the national market, and it is likely that we will compete with the group in the future."
Uncle Gong was driving quietly in the front. When he heard their conversation, there was always a look on his face that said, "I have something to say but I don't know whether I should say it or not."
However, the three of them didn't see that at this time, there was a young man in a suit with extraordinary temperament on the side of the road. He was tapping his feet, as if he was not wearing leather shoes but the same slippers as Huoyun Evil God. He was waiting at the door of a 3-color ice cream shop.
After the two servings of ice cream were ready, Gu Ming turned around and got into the car, heading towards Shanti Villa.
As soon as he entered the gate of the villa, he saw the rich ladies sitting on the small sofa on the lawn drinking tea, and then they coughed.
Zhou Xiaoyao looked over when he heard the voice, and immediately ran to Gu Ming.
She was wearing a long skirt today, the upper part was white and the lower part was black, with a thin ribbon tied on her chest, making her look like a genuine noble lady.
"elder brother."
"I just knew it was a rush. There was a reception and the young lady was dancing, but I didn't even have time to watch it."
Zhou Xiaoyao covered her face with a scare, and then she saw Gu Ming took out the ice cream, and then she looked at it blankly: "This can't appease me either."
Gu Ming narrowed his eyes and thought to himself that this girl seemed to know that I would coax her.
"Take one and give it to Auntie."
"Ow."
Gu Ming rolled up the plastic bag and stuffed it into his pocket, then walked towards Qin Jingqiu on the lawn. He found a promotional leaflet on the table, which happened to be for the international kindergarten at the door.
At this time, Qin Jingqiu was wearing glasses and studying it carefully and meticulously.
Gu Ming turned to look at Zhou Xiaoyao: "After I left, have you been studying this?"
"I didn't do the research. It was my aunt who did it." Zhou Xiaoyao shook his head and quickly passed the buck.
"Really?"
"Really, I'm not interested at all if my best friend can't have a baby."
Qin Jingqiu was watching intently. When she heard the voice, she looked up and found that Gu Ming had returned. "Aren't you attending the cocktail party? Why are you back so early?"
Gu Ming sat on the sofa: "I met a lot of people, but most of them don't have much business dealings with group buying. The cocktail party is just the beginning. There will be many opportunities for communication at the discussion meeting. There is no need to rush."
"That's right, but you're back just in time. The kindergarten at the door will officially open this summer. You won't be able to use it in the past two years. But if you work hard, you can go to kindergarten quickly. Look, this is their promotional page."
Qin Jingqiu took off her glasses: "I asked Xiaoyao, she is quite satisfied with the overall environment of the school, but she thinks that the art training classes are a bit too much. She doesn't want the baby to learn so many things from the beginning. It will be very tiring. What do you think?"
"?????"
Gu Ming was stunned for a moment, then immediately looked at Zhou Xiaoyao with a threatening face: "That makes sense, but little rich woman, do you have anything to explain?"
Zhou Xiaoyao narrowed her eyes and said seriously, "You found out. Actually, I want to go to kindergarten."
"Did you take me for a fool again?"
"I didn't. You are the smartest, and I am the stupid one."
