141 There Is Only One Spot, Up For Competition!

Xie Yan was a local. His family’s business was quite big, and he was also one of the top students in his class. However, he did not have the bad temper of a rich second-generation heir. He worked hard to be humble and got along well with his classmates.

Zhu Qiao had a good impression of him, but she did not expect him to also be starting a business.

Xie Yan noticed the application form in Ai Tingya’s hand and could not bring himself to say it.

Ai Tingya kept a low profile. Xie Yan did not interact much with her. They might have only exchanged a few words or not. However, Ai Tingya was really beautiful. Sometimes, Xie Yan would sneak a few glances at her in class. It was purely admiration.

!!

Xie Yan was surprised that he would become competitors with Ai Tingya one day.

The atmosphere between the three of them instantly became awkward.

Zhu Qiao coughed to break the awkwardness and said, “It’s fine. I’ll get you another one. Fill it in when you get back. If you don’t understand, you can ask me directly.”

They were all students in her class, so of course she wanted to be impartial and take an impartial approach. Fortunately, she printed two copies and Zhu Qiao immediately gave one to Xie Yan.

Xie Yan, who had obtained the form, was not very happy. He glanced at Ai Tingya and realized that she was also looking at him.

The two of them knew very well that while there could be many application forms, there could only be one slot.

As there were too many faculties in the school, it was impossible for them to accept all of them. There was an entrepreneurial project review mechanism. After a competition, they would choose the projects with the most prospects for development and support them.

For the sake of fairness, there was only one slot in each class.

Xie Yan had been looking for Zhu Qiao for a long time in order to obtain the application form. He could miss her perfectly every time. It was not easy for him to finally get to her, but he realized that another student had beaten him to it.

The two of them had already realized the current situation. The sparks of competition had already exploded in their ears.

Even though it was a little awkward for the two of them to collide, to Zhu Qiao, competition promoted motivation. If she could choose the most advantageous person to support, she could also benefit from the school’s evaluation.

She guided the two of them together. “The direction of entrepreneurship, the current valuation scale, and future development goals. These three would be the deciding factors. You must write them down clearly.”

Zhu Qiao knew that Ai Tingya owned a milk tea shop, so she asked Xie Yan, “Xie Yan, what’s your entrepreneurial direction?”

“Well… It’s software development. I’m currently working on a webpage that can be used to shop online. I’m testing it.” Xie Yan could not hide the pride in his tone when he talked about his project.

He was not born a rich second-generation heir.

When he was young, his parents often left Xie Yan at his grandparents’ house when it was the most difficult for them to start a business. Other than giving him living expenses, they basically did not appear in front of him.

However, under his grandparents’ education, not only did Xie Yan not hate his parents, he even learned from their motivation to start a business.

He wanted to make a name for himself ever since he was in high school. Therefore, he studied hard and got into Oxford University. After he entered university, he immediately implemented it.

Zhu Qiao saw the hot-blooded flames in his eyes and smiled in admiration.

After Xie Yan spoke, he remembered that he still did not know what Ai Tingya was up to. He took the initiative to ask, “Student Ai Tingya, what about you?”

Ai Tingya, who was suddenly asked, said dejectedly, “I… I own a milk tea shop.”

Originally, she felt that her business was doing well, but after hearing about Xie Yan’s high-end shopping website, Ai Tingya’s confidence decreased by half. It was not that she felt that the physical economy was not good.

Instead, Luo Feng had also said that online shopping would become the norm in the future when they chatted about the future development of the Internet in the past.

In Ai Tingya’s opinion, Xie Yan’s unique foresight was almost comparable to Luo Feng’s.

Ai Tingya felt that she might not be able to compete with Xie Xie since she was a head shorter than him from the beginning.

Xie Yan’s confidence immediately doubled seeing that her aura had weakened even before the battle began. He felt that he would definitely win this wave! He tried his best not to smile and maintain his current gentlemanly demeanor.

Zhu Qiao did not think there was any difference. There were so many professions, and every profession produced a top scholar. As long as one could sit at the top of any industry, they would be an insufferably successful person.

She said, “Alright, you can write it down after confirming it. Then, we can calculate the current scale of development, profits, and valuation.”

The investment still looked at the prospects of development. The school would definitely choose a potential stock to support. The current profitability of the two projects was also one of the evaluation conditions.

“Our company already has more than a dozen employees. As for the profit…” Xie Yan paused for a moment. “It’s not profitable for the time being, but we already have many users. Teacher Zhu, you know that the website operation is mainly an investment. It will only start to make a profit in the middle and later stages.”

This was also why Xie Yan was in a hurry to apply for support from the school. He had already invested all the money he had saved for the past ten years and needed additional investments.

Xie Yan’s parents were very supportive of his entrepreneurship and were willing to invest in his son. Xie Yan’s father had expressed that he was not worried about losing money, it was good to be able to gain experience.

However, he was rejected by Xie Yan. He was a rich second-generation heir, but he did not want to rely on his family.

If he wanted to start with his own ability like his parents, he naturally had to pull in investments himself.

“Our company…” Ai Tingya stared at the ceiling and calculated the number of employees. “In the past few days, the number of employees should have increased to about 100, maybe a little more.”

There were already 20 to 30 employees at the school milk tea shop alone. They were all nurtured in advance and prepared to invest in the branch. In addition, Song Anrong had been hiring employees for the company for the past two days.

According to Luo Feng’s expectations, he would recruit 30 to 50 people as the main force of the company.

As for the milk tea shops on both sides of Crown City and Nanlin, they handed them to Lu Zhao. They did not ask about the number of employees. There should be more than 10 of them in total.

Not to mention that there was a food factory that had been silently supporting the development of the milk tea shop.

Ai Tingya thought that she should record it down when she got back. Otherwise, as the General Manager, she would definitely be laughed at if word got out that she didn’t even know how many people were in her company.

“In terms of the company’s profits, it should have been a little more than a million yuan last month. We did two promotional events and the income is higher than usual,” Ai Tingya said.

Ever since the pilot of the couple event in the shop was successful, the other two milk tea shops had also carried out similar activities with very good profits. They could hear the smile in Lu Zhao’s voice when she called.

Therefore, her dividends this month were so high that it shocked Zhu Qiao.

Xie Yan sweated profusely. Why did he feel that it was a little different from what he had imagined?

Milk tea seemed to be making more money than he had imagined. However, he still stabilized his mentality. His online business was different from a physical business after all. In the later stages, he would really make a lot of money!

He secretly clenched his fists and encouraged himself not to panic!
