"What Meng Chang did not expect was that his little tricks did not escape Boss Pei's eyes."
"At the news conference for all investors, Tengda's Boss Ma asked two soul-piercing questions on the spot: Is the cold noodles delicious? What does the so-called 'multi-dimensional fusion' mean? "
"This directly hit Meng Chang's weakness. It's equivalent to pointing out the two huge hidden dangers of the Cold-Faced Lady in front of all the investors: bad taste and excessive marketing."
"Obviously, Boss Ma has two goals for sending a message to Boss Pei. First, it's to remind the investors of the risks of the Cold-Faced Lady. Second, it's to remind Meng Chang that the Cold-Faced Lady is just a castle in the air and will definitely fail. It's not too late to change now."
"Unfortunately, the high-spirited Meng Chang did not realize the seriousness of this warning. He still stubbornly followed his script."
"However, what he doesn't know is that he will not be walking on the script he thought of, but the script that Boss Pei arranged for him."
"Boss Ma's question at the news conference was a blow to Meng Chang's head. He could only spend all his money on the Cold-Faced Lady's shop and use marketing, popularity, and beautiful financial reports to regain the trust of investors. "
"However, this process was not smooth. That was because the nail that Boss Ma buried at the news conference was still hurting the investors. The investments that Meng Chang could obtain all had harsh content such as VAM agreements and buyback clauses. Meng Chang still lacked bargaining chips with investors. "
At that moment, Meng Chang fell into a dilemma. He knew that the Cold-Faced Lady's current state was still far from what he wanted. If he took this hot money now, there would definitely be a huge problem. "
"It's not too late for Meng Chang to give up now."
"However, at that moment, Boss Pei extended a helping hand again and invested six million yuan. This allowed Meng Chang to see a bargaining chip with other investors and reignited his confidence. "
"However, in hindsight, Boss Pei's move should be considered 'playing hard to get'. If not for this investment, the Cold-Faced Lady's ending might have been short-lived and disappeared without a trace. Meng Chang's business failed but he did not have any debts. Boss Pei's initial investment of two million yuan was wasted."
"However, the truth has proven that Boss Pei's money looks easy to get, but it's not easy at all."
"The confident Meng Chang launched an even grander marketing campaign in an even more high-profile manner. His domineering attitude made the investors on the sidelines waver. Investors were afraid of missing the Cold-Faced Lady and were already considering removing the harsh conditions. The mentality of both sides gradually changed. "
Meng Chang felt that he was just one step away from his goal. He was just one step away from it. Thus, he came to Jingzhou with a carefully prepared financial report, wanting to get the last sum of money from Boss Pei. "
"As long as this money is in place and the other investors follow suit, the Cold-Faced Lady's valuation would reach an unprecedented height. Meng Chang would have many choices, such as selling it to Quanmin Reviews and other food giants and escaping easily."
However, Boss Pei only sneered after reading Meng Chang's financial report. What caught Meng Chang off guard was that Boss Pei sold all the shares of the Cold-Faced Lady in his hands. He even sold them at a low price, causing the Cold-Faced Lady's valuation to plummet! "
"Meng Chang is one step away, but the difference is worlds apart."
"After that, Meng Chang's actions were completely controlled by Boss Pei. Seeing that the Cold-Faced Lady was about to collapse, Boss Pei invested two million yuan to raise his hand. Seeing that the Cold-Faced Lady's situation was gradually improving, he sold all his shares. "
"Meng Chang fell into the mentality of a gambler. There were already too many chips on the table. He did not want to give up because all his previous efforts would be wasted if he gave up. It seemed like the dawn of victory was right in front of him. However, no matter how hard he worked, he was still far from it … "
"Before Boss Pei completely destroyed Meng Chang's hope, he gave him one last glimmer of hope. Thus, Meng Chang, who had always been clear-headed, finally relaxed. After hesitating for a long time, he accepted an investment with joint liability. In the end, the Cold-Faced Lady ended up in a miserable state. Meng Chang carried a debt of millions of yuan and could no longer turn the tables. "
"It's not hard to realize that Meng Chang's goal has always been the same throughout the entire process from the establishment of the Cold-Faced Lady to its failure. We can't guess what he's thinking, but from the actions he's taken, it's obvious that he doesn't want to build a local fast food brand like he said. The author reasonably suspects that his initial goal was to raise the valuation and cash out of the market. "
"However, Meng Chang used this technique very skillfully. He was too eloquent, so he successfully deceived the investors. Or perhaps, some investors knew what Meng Chang was thinking, but they still invested money. They had a fluke mentality and felt that they wouldn't be the last to pass the drum and flower. "
"However, Meng Chang still failed completely. He was like that untamed monkey. He thought that he had the Seventy-two Transformations and the Fiery Golden Eyes. He wanted to escape unscathed after causing a ruckus in the sky. However, he did not expect Boss Pei to be paying attention to him. No matter how hard Meng Chang worked, he could not escape Boss Pei's grasp! "
"Boss Pei obviously knew Meng Chang's goal very well, but he still patiently played this game with him."
"Boss Pei gave him a warning immediately when he realized that Meng Chang's motives were impure. When Meng Chang wanted to quit, Boss Pei gave him some hope. However, when Meng Chang was about to succeed, Boss Pei took drastic measures and completely destroyed his hope."
"In the end, he pressed him firmly under the Five Fingers Mountain so that he could not make a comeback."
"Some people might be confused when they read this: Does Boss Pei and Meng Chang have a personal grudge? Even if Meng Chang is suspected of cheating money from Boss Pei, wouldn't it be fine as long as Boss Pei doesn't give him money? Why go through so much trouble? "
"That's what makes Boss Pei different."
Qi Yan could not help but nod when she saw this.
Before reading this article, she did not know that the Cold-Faced Lady and Boss Pei had such a complicated relationship.
Qi Yan might have been in charge of the marketing of the Cold-Faced Lady, but she did not dabble in other aspects. Basically, she only carried out the tasks assigned by Meng Chang.
In the past, Qi Yan had worked enthusiastically because she believed in Meng Chang's painting. She thought that Meng Chang could really turn the Cold-Faced Lady into the leading Chinese fast food company and give all employees an extremely bright future.
However, it seemed like she was too naive now.
Meng Chang obviously had never considered the future of the Cold-Faced Lady and these employees. He only had himself in his heart from beginning to end.
This article described the battle of wits between Boss Pei and Meng Chang in great detail. It looked very credible. However, the most important question was just as the author had said. Why would Boss Pei play with Meng Chang when he was so busy?
It was almost the same as the Seven Capture and Seven Release in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms.
Perhaps Meng Chang himself could not figure out why Boss Pei was targeting him.
It was very likely that Meng Chang had become the monkey that was suppressed under the Five Fingers Mountain because he felt that Boss Pei did not have the time or the need to haggle with him over a few million yuan.
Meng Chang did not want to jump out of the Five Fingers Mountain, but to slip out from between the fingers of the Five Fingers Mountain. However, he did not expect Boss Pei's Five Fingers Mountain to be so flawless.
The last paragraph of the article analyzed Boss Pei's intentions in detail.
"Let us think about a question: What would happen if Boss Pei did not invest in Meng Chang? Would Meng Chang give up on his plan? Obviously not. "
"Meng Chang would only think that the time was not ripe and put the entire plan on hold. He would continue to accumulate qualifications and resume and wait for the next opportunity. Then, would the next investor still have Boss Pei's intelligence and ability? I'm afraid not. "
"At that time, Meng Chang's plan would be successfully realized. He would successfully cash out and leave, leaving behind a pile of chicken feathers. He would gain both fame and fortune, and become an outstanding entrepreneur and entrepreneur."
"Obviously, Boss Pei does not want to see this happen. That's why he took time out of his busy schedule to completely cut off this possibility."
"If you encounter a ferocious beast on the road, you can indeed protect yourself by ignoring it, but you can't stop the ferocious beast from attacking people. Subduing the ferocious beast and putting shackles on it is what a hero would do!"
"Boss Pei's move can be said to be killing three birds with one stone."
"First, make Meng Chang a judgment debtor and discredit him. After the Cold-Faced Lady failed, it would be extremely difficult for him to make a comeback. It would also prevent him from harming others."
"Second, set things right and let the Cold-Faced Lady get on the right track. Through the comparison, set an example for everyone and explain one thing: it's useless to rely on marketing alone to run a business. The key is to be down-to-earth."
"Third, this is also a warning to all entrepreneurs who have ill intentions and want to cheat money from Dream Realization Ventures: it doesn't matter if you lose money as long as you manage it seriously. However, if your motives are impure from the beginning, then Meng Chang will be a good example!"
"From this, we can also see Boss Pei's attitude towards people like Meng Chang."
"All of Meng Chang's actions are within the scope of the law. He did not falsify accounts or evade taxes. From the looks of it, he is operating legally. "
"Everyone wants to cut liars into pieces, but our country is a country ruled by law after all. We have to distinguish between emotions, reason, and law. No one can enforce justice on behalf of the law. That would be too arrogant and overbearing. "
"If Meng Chang breaks the law, he will naturally be punished by the law. On the other hand, his problem is only a business matter. Then, it would be most appropriate to use business methods to solve it. "
"I heard that Boss Pei gave Meng Chang a job after he was at his wit's end. Obviously, this is not because he has compassion, but because he has other plans. "
"Here, I boldly predict that Boss Pei will use business methods to make Meng Chang suffer. The current situation is just the beginning."
"As for where Meng Chang will go in the future, will he feel remorse and give up on himself? Or would he suddenly repent after going through all the hardships? His fate is in his own hands. "
