Zhuangyu Catering, General Manager's Office.

Su Kai and Yuan Li sat opposite each other, chatting about interesting things about company management and investment.

"Mr. Yuan, with all due respect, with Sequoia's strength, we can fully absorb all the shares released in your company's Series A round. Why not let Sequoia invest in Series A alone?"

Su Kai finally showed his fox tail.

A mere 2% of the shares cannot satisfy his appetite at all.

A valuation of US$10 billion is an astronomical figure that is difficult to accept for Black Ant Capital, which was just established.

But for Sequoia, it can only be barely pleasing to the eyes.

Usually, Sequoia will enter the market after the B round.

Su Kai also came to Chengdu on a business trip, and heard about this hotpot restaurant in Chengdu where the queue takes two hours.

I came here to check in and immediately became interested in investing.

"Mr. Su, I believe that with the strength of Sequoia, it is only a matter of time before Black Ant Capital replaces Black Ant Capital as the institution with the largest shareholding in La Wang."

Yuan Li did not refuse directly, but her meaning was very obvious.

"Can…"

Just as Su Kai was about to continue fighting, there was a sudden knock on the door.

"Enter."

Yuan Li smiled apologetically at Su Kai and called in the secretary who knocked on the door.

"Mr. Yuan, Mr. He and Mr. Zhang from Black Ant Capital have arrived in the conference room. They want to sign the equity purchase agreement as soon as possible."

The little secretary who walked in was none other than Lai Manling, who had impressed Qi Sheng at the annual meeting.

After the year, Zhuangyu Catering was busy expanding and also opened some positions within the company.

Lai Manling defeated many competitors and became Yuan Li's admired little secretary.

"Don't they need any due diligence?"

Yuan Li was stunned for a moment, then suddenly looked at Su Kai and smiled dumbly.

No wonder Black Ant Capital is so anxious. Sequoia, the big brother in the venture capital circle, is eyeing it.

There is no need to worry about any due diligence. Only by signing the contract quickly can we be at ease.

"Mr. He is here?"

Su Kai smiled when he heard this, "Mr. He and I are also old friends. We invested in Bubble Mart together. I didn't expect that we would invest in Hot King together."

"This shows that both Mr. Su and Mr. He have excellent investment vision."

Yuan Li suddenly felt a little emotional when she thought about her initial worries.

At that time, she felt that Qi Sheng’s valuation of US$10 billion was a bit outrageous.

As Black Ant and Sequoia came to her door one after another and both recognized the valuation, she was completely emboldened.

Even the venture capital investors she consulted later were blocked by her using this valuation.

If you don't agree with this valuation, there is no need to waste each other's time.

A valuation of US$10 billion is enough to exclude many venture capital investors with conservative investment ideas or weaker capabilities.

But a good project will never worry about investors.

Black ants and redwoods obviously have vicious eyes.

"Mr. Yuan, if you don't mind, I'll also say hello to my old friend."

Su Kai could imagine how anxious He Yu was.

This is Sequoia’s position in the venture capital circle.

But for any high-quality projects that are favored by Sequoia, small and medium-sized venture capital investors will not even think about entering the market.

The valuation will be so high that they simply cannot afford it.

"Yes, Mr. Su please."

Yuan Li smiled and made an invitation gesture, and walked to the conference room with Su Kai.

……

In the conference room.

He Yu has been drinking tea since he came in.

This is his subconscious action when he is nervous.

"Old He, stop drinking. You're not afraid of your bladder exploding."

"When I see you drinking water, I feel like going to the toilet."

Zhang Peiyuan looked at his old partner speechlessly, but he also understood his mood.

Running all the way from the airport, He Yu kept asking the driver to speed up on the road.

I am afraid that if I am late, I will miss out on Spicy King, a dark horse in the catering industry with super unicorn potential.

"Isn't Mr. Yuan here yet?"

He Yu looked at his watch subconsciously.

He had only been in the conference room for less than ten minutes, but it made him feel like his days were like a year.

"Come on, the secretary has already gone to report."

Zhang Peiyuan also became nervous, and suddenly heard the crisp sound of high heels stepping on the ground.

"coming!"

Zhang Peiyuan and He Yu looked at each other and couldn't help but smile at each other.

Director Qi is truly a trustworthy person!

"Sorry, Mr. He, Mr. Zhang, I was receiving Mr. Su just now, so I couldn't greet him immediately. Please don't mind."

Yuan Li walked in with a smile and took the lead in giving the two of them a reassurance.

"Haha, we will be a family from now on, so we don't need to be so polite."

He Yu quickly shook hands with Yuan Li.

Seeing Su Kai walking in behind him, he suddenly thought to himself that he was lucky.

Just a little bit away, he missed the opportunity to invest in Hot King.

"Mr. He, long time no see."

Su Kai smiled and stretched out his hand, admiring the eyes of this old friend very much.

"Mr. Su, I didn't expect you to also like the spicy king. Fortunately, I took action quickly."

After He Yu shook hands with Su Kai, he quickly took out the prepared equity purchase agreement.

"Mr. Yuan, I have filled in the details of the contract. The valuation is US$10 billion. We, Black Ant Capital, hold 3% of the shares. US$3000 million will be credited to La Wang's account within a week."

Yuan Li smiled and nodded, carefully reviewed the details of the contract, and only signed and sealed it after confirming that there were no problems.

"Mr. He, welcome Black Ant Capital to board La King's chariot, and congratulations on becoming La King's second largest shareholder."

He Yu breathed a sigh of relief, smiled and waved his hand.

"Don't make fun of me. With only 3% of the shares, I am the second largest shareholder of Maoxian. Being able to get on the bus is the most important thing."

"Mr. Yuan, now that Black Ant Capital has signed the equity purchase agreement, we will also complete the investigation process as soon as possible. Within a week at most, we will also transfer the US$2000 million into your company's account."

Su Kai changed his tone, "But I hope to add a small clause. If Lawang carries out Series B financing, Sequoia will be eligible to receive priority investment rights."

"This is no problem, I can promise you on behalf of Director Qi."

Yuan Li doesn't mind a small priority investment right.

This also means that Su Kai and Sequoia are very optimistic about Spicy King.

"Then I wish us a happy cooperation, and Spicy King will surpass Haidilao as soon as possible!"

Su Kai smiled and stretched out his hand, telling Yuan Li what he expected from the Hot King.

"Haidilao?"

Yuan Li smiled faintly, "It's just a matter of time."

From the beginning to the end, Yuan Li never regarded Haidilao as a real competitor.

In terms of single-store square footage, how can Haidilao compare with Spicy King?

"Haha, I admire your spirit. Mr. He and I will definitely make a lot of money from this investment."

Su Kai was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect Yuan Li to be so crazy.

It has to be said that Yuan Li's madness is indeed justified.

Thinking of Spicy King’s 20 stores in the southwest region, they will be opening soon.
