Chapter 472 The second round of investment

When they learned that Lu Ze was leaving so soon, the three brothers Zhang Wei, Liu Chuan and He Feng were very puzzled.

I am such a big boss, why bother to be a dog?

Lu Ze could only laugh it off. They didn't do business and couldn't understand what it means to be involuntarily.

Even if you become a hand-off manager, you cannot even hand over the right to make a decision and sign the right. Otherwise, the company would become someone else's in minutes.

So Lu Ze and Zhang Wei and others had a simple meal, and the three best friends sent him to Yuzhang Airport again.

Moreover, the three of them were yelling to go back to the Demon City for a few days, but Lu Ze sternly refused.

He went back to do his job, so he didn't have time to play with them.

Lu Ze did not ask Su Jinyi to give him away, and he played a bloody plot of saying goodbye, but he agreed to let Su Jinyi go back a few days in advance. At that time, he could be as close as he wanted, so that he would no longer have to worry about the sheets.

My parents understand it quite well. After all, they are not completely clear about how big their son’s business is, but Lu Ze is now in control of the bun shop, rice noodle shop, and decoration companies, so it is normal to be a little busy.

I was still in the first class, and there were no accidental encounters again. I successfully arrived at the Magic City.

He did not go home first, but came directly to the company. As a result, Zhang Ying was indeed working overtime with his core team.

In fact, Lu Ze did not encourage overtime education. He worked in foreign and private enterprises in his previous life, and he knew very well about the real situation of the company.

The work efficiency of most middle-level and grassroots employees is not as high as expected. Which company has grown bigger? Who is not snatching the boss and leaders behind their backs?

Instead of encouraging the corporate culture of 996, it is better to improve your work efficiency and touch less fish, and you will have everything.

However, executives are not subject to this rule. After all, executives have a heavy responsibility, so it is normal to work overtime. Otherwise, why should they get such a high salary and option dividends?

Seeing Lu Ze coming back so soon, Zhang Cheng was also very happy: "Mr. Lu, you are finally back. Hurry up, a bunch of documents are waiting to be signed.

After signing the letter, I will submit it quickly while I am tomorrow and Friday, otherwise it will take another week to delay."

"Okay, I'll bring all the documents to my office later, and I'll sign them one by one." Lu Ze nodded and agreed.

After a while, Zhang Cheng came with his assistant Xiao Deng and a bunch of documents.

Among them, the most important ones are documents to purchase land in the Magic City factory and documents to prepare to gamble during the outbreak of the Internet bubble.

Especially the latter, if you don’t seize the opportunity, it’s too late to regret if you miss the time.

After all, Lu Ze remembers limited information, and the window period for being able to get cheap is not long, just the first few days.

There are thick stacks of documents on the desktop, and many of them are in triplicate or quadruple.

So he had to transform into a human-shaped signing machine, and he had a lot of documents signed and signed in.

Although many contracts are valid for stamping official seals, some internal process documents must be signed by themselves according to the company's rules and regulations.

Without the documents signed by him, many processes are non-compliant and illegal.

Anyone who dares to make small moves can directly call the police and prosecute the crime of embezzlement or misappropriation of funds.

After all, the daily administration of official seals is managed by administrative departments. If there are no rules and regulations to restrict the use of official seals, wouldn’t everyone be able to steal them with official seals?

Even if you trust someone, you must be a little careful about this matter.

The use of official seals must strictly abide by the leadership approval system, and he must sign it every time they are used, otherwise wouldn’t it be messy?

With rules, when Lu Ze is the boss, you don’t have to worry too much.

What's more, the official seal is managed by his butler Li Yanlin. She is half her own family and can be trusted.

After signing for more than half an hour, it can be seen how much work is needed to raise funds.

Zhang Ying left Lu Ze's office with a smile and rushed to handle the follow-up work.

Just as I was about to rest for a while, I went home when the four gentlemen of Ctrip actually smelled the smell and came to the door at the same time.

Chen Nanpeng, Liang Jianzhang, Ji Qi and Fan Yi all arrived and blocked Lu Ze at the office door.

"Mr. Lu, you are back. We have important work to report to you." Chen Nanpeng looked at Lu Ze with a bent look and said begging.

Lu Ze asked angrily: "I heard that your acquisition plan has really been completed?"

"Yes, Mr. Lu, we are talking about this matter." Ji Qi rushed to explain, "not only did we negotiate the business trip, but even Hyundai Express Company was included in Ctrip."

"That's right, Ctrip is now the largest hotel reservation service company in China." Fan Ye also echoed.

When Lu Ze heard this, he was also very surprised. Chen Nanpeng and the others were really fucking.

You should know that Ctrip in his previous life only settled the acquisition of the "Shangzhixing" company before March.

As for Hyundai Express, it was only after half a year that the merger and acquisition was successful.

Unexpectedly, after his intervention, the four gentlemen of Ctrip actually did something that they had not accomplished in their previous lives, and directly ate two major hotel reservation service companies in one breath.

Lu Ze knew very well that this was the butterfly effect he brought.

He asked with a smile, "Haha, yes, how did you do it? Could it be that you were cheating in the name of [Singularity Fund]?"

"We dare not, we use sincerity and the future prospects of Ctrip to impress the bosses of Shangzhixing and Hyundai Express." Chen Nanpeng immediately explained.

Lu Ze asked again: "Very good, what is Ctrip's next plan? Where do you plan to bring Ctrip?"

"Mr. Lu, this is what we think. First, integrate the business volume of the two companies and complete the unified brand transformation.

Then, through the offline channels of the two companies, customers are continuously diverted to the online.

Try to increase the website's operating data by orders of magnitude within half a year to benchmark the level of foreign online travel websites.

At that time, I hope to raise a new round of funds, get enough funds to promote, completely stabilize the domestic market, become the first portal of online travel websites, and plan to go public." Chen Nanpeng explained patiently.

Lu Ze shook his head and said calmly: "These are not enough, and far from enough."

"Mr. Lu, what do you mean?" Liang Jianzhang asked with confusion.

Lu Ze paused and analyzed to them: "It's not enough to rely on hotels alone, you still need to do the air ticket business.

Housing and transportation are one. Currently, most of Ctrip's customer base are mainly business people. Moreover, the frequency of air tickets consumption is even much higher than that of hotels.

After all, air tickets are required for round trips, but the hotel may only have accommodation requirements in one place.

If we can negotiate cooperation with major airlines and launch some preferential services, the air ticket business will instantly exceed the hotel business by several orders of magnitude.

After all, hotels may not be booked online on Ctrip, and there are cheaper options offline.

But air tickets are different, and it is a necessity for long-distance business travel customers.

And from the perspective of data swiping, the data of air ticket booking business is much better than that of hotel booking business."

"Mr. Lu, we have actually considered it a long time ago, but this is limited funds.

The rice must be eaten one bite at a time, and the things must be done one by one. When you serve them all together, nothing can be done well.

If you can invest more in your next round of investment, we would like to make a quicker progress.” Fan Ye explained helplessly.

Lu Ze was almost irritated and even used what he said to provoke him. It was really OK.

He had no choice but to agree: "Money is not a problem, but the same thing is that when your monthly booking for online air ticket business exceeds 10,000, it will be the time for my third round of investment."

"That's great, thank you Mr. Lu for your trust in us." Chen Nanpeng immediately flattered him and asked carefully, "Mr. Lu, dare you ask when will the second round of investment be completed?"

Lu Ze asked jokingly: "Haha, why are you really waiting for the rice to be put into the pot?"

"Mr. Lu, the merger and acquisition contracts between Shangzhixing and Hyundai Express have been signed. The money has not been paid yet. We can do a big fight when your funds are in place." Ji Qi was anxious as he said, but it was obvious that the pressure on him was really great.

Lu Ze nodded and replied, "Don't worry, come here to sign the contract tomorrow, go to work at the eighth day of the lunar month, and call you as soon as possible.

4 million US dollars, not a penny.”

"Thank you so much, Lu Ze, we will definitely live up to your trust." Liang Jianzhang jumped up excitedly.

Lu Ze also made his own request: "Since Ctrip's prospects are clear, can you consider resigning and devote yourself to it?"

Although the four gentlemen of Ctrip were planning to do this, Lu Ze still reminded him that the purpose of Ctrip is to develop faster.

After all, the value generated by the four of them, part-time and full-time is completely different.

"Mr. Lu, don't worry, we will do this immediately when we go back." Chen Nanpeng promised confidently.

The 4 million US dollars are in place, so Lu Ze still needs to say that he wishes to come and do something big right away.

Moreover, Lu Ze has agreed that the third round of investment will not be less than 10 million US dollars. With so much money to support, the salary will no longer be worse than the original unit.

Moreover, Ctrip's prospects are so gratifying that he would not be willing to see the other three take turns to take control, and he is still working part-time outside.

The days when Ctrip went public have been thinking about it for more than a day or two in their minds.

With financial support, the four of them wished they would go to Nasdaq to ring the bell next month.

After receiving Lu Ze's guarantee, the four gentlemen of Ctrip returned with satisfaction.

After dealing with these, the company has nothing to do with it. After all, he has not officially started working today.

He took a taxi and went home to check it out. He didn't know what Xia Qinghe was doing. He hadn't sent a text message to tease him for two days.
