Forcing Me to Be Reborn?!

This means that Wang, with no other options left, has no choice but to seek forgiveness from his Alibaba Daddy!

As mentioned before, once the three major giants personally step in, all the venture capitalists will start picking sides.

In such a scenario, if your company isn't backed by one of the three major giants, venture capitalists won't invest, as it's destined to be a lost cause.

Now, Wang Xin has failed at transforming into Lv Bu and can't reenact the classic "If you don't abandon me" scene with Tencent, so he can only go back to Alibaba Daddy with his tail between his legs.

Otherwise, what awaits Meituan next will be a devastating crisis!

At this thought, Cheng Zhu couldn't help but glance at the passionate Brother Hao.

"Being coerced by Alibaba was supposed to be your script, Ah Hao!" he thought to himself.

In his previous life, after Meituan and Dianping smoothly merged, Alibaba was infuriated and chose to divest, allowing Wang Xin to smoothly fall into Tencent's embrace.

And Eleme, once under Tencent, fell into an awkward situation, ultimately being forcefully injected by Alibaba, having no choice but to switch camps.

The eventual result was a full acquisition, becoming part of the Alibaba system, starting its decline, and no longer being on the same level as Meituan Takeout.

As for the once passionate Brother Hao, he eventually left Eleme, which had carried all his youthful dreams, as the founder was directly ousted.

Thinking of this, Cheng Zhu couldn't help but put his arm around Zhang Xuhao's shoulder and suddenly said, without any context: "You're really lucky."

Zhang Xuhao was taken aback, clearly unable to understand his deeper meaning.

He just wondered aloud, "How can you call this lucky? This is the result of the joint efforts of the three of us!"

The passionate Brother Hao even loudly exclaimed: "Man proposes, God disposes!"

Cheng Zhu smiled slightly upon hearing this.

The next day was the opening day of the blind box store [Boat Bo Te] at Star City.

Boat is the English word for Zhou, so Jiang Wanzhou's blind box store took the homonym and called it [Bo Te].

The naming idea was suggested by Cheng Zhu.

In his memory, blind box store names are mostly quirky.

[Pop Mart] isn't an exception; there are even stranger ones.

And the initially explosive series of Pop Mart, like the famous MOLLY, had a very peculiar mouth shape, with lips pouted.

This was just like the moment the lips close after making a "bo" sound.

At this moment, inside Star City.

Jiang Wanzhou, dressed in a formal suit, seemed quite elegant, even though... his walking style wasn't so masculine.

As the second shareholder, Lin Lu was also well-dressed today.

Cheng Zhu always thought the brand [miumiu] seemed tailored for Lin Lu.

She was wearing [miumiu] again today, exuding a strong youthful vibe.

As a result, Ji Shiwen standing next to her transformed from a little beauty to an average person.

Sometimes, people look at the whole picture.

Lin Lu's beauty was not only reflected in her features and figure but also in that lively energy emanating from her.

It wasn't the auspicious time for the official opening yet, and Little Lu was standing by, bored, watching Jiang Wanzhou bustle around.

She had her hands clasped behind her back, sometimes rising on her toes, sometimes lowering them, her body swaying slightly back and forth.

"Little President Jiang seems quite nervous," she softly said to Ji Shiwen beside her.

"Yeah, seems a bit flustered," Ji Shiwen nodded.

She curiously asked, "When Cheng Zhu opened his first store, was it like this too?"

Lin Lu, upon hearing this, fell into reminiscing.

Outspoken and direct, after thinking, she said straightforwardly, "Not really."

She seemed to have never seen nervousness in Cheng Zhu.

The only time she clearly felt his anxiety and panic was when she suddenly confessed her feelings to him.

At this thought, Little Lu surprisingly felt somewhat proud, thinking she was quite impressive.

Ji Shiwen glanced at Lin Lu and said, "Do you have a filter for Cheng Zhu or something? Even though his career is successful now, it's normal for a person to feel a bit nervous when starting for the first time, right?"

"What! A filter! It sounds like I'm infatuated with him!" Lin Lu said, displeased.

"Aren't you? Cheng Zhu is indeed handsome," Ji Shiwen teased.

"No, no, how could I!?" Lin Lu waved her hand.

I'm not that shallow!

Ji Shiwen glanced at her busy boyfriend from afar, then at Lin Lu, unable to help herself, "But Cheng Zhu, this person, doesn't even have time to attend the opening of his childhood friend and girlfriend's store."

"Well, there's no helping it. He has affairs in Shanghai, and the timing conflicts." Lin Lu wasn't bothered by it, thinking it wasn't a big deal.

Ji Shiwen slightly pouted her mouth, looking at Jiang Wanzhou, "But his childhood friend doesn't think so; he even wanted to postpone the opening day because of Cheng Zhu."

"Ah? Is there such a thing? It turns out they are the true love duo, huh!" Lin Lu had the mood to joke on the side.

She wondered, "Then why wasn't it postponed in the end?"

"Wanzhou said Cheng Zhu asked if Jiang had consulted someone for an auspicious day, and Jiang said his mom asked a master for one."

"Then, Cheng Zhu just told Jiang Wanzhou: I know you don't believe in this stuff either, but I think, if we never consulted, it's irrelevant, but since it's done, and someone has mentioned it, let's stick to it."

Lin Lu exclaimed, "Ah? He also cares about this!"

She always thought Cheng Zhu was just short of writing unprofessional right on his face.
