Smart Home

Yan City University Entrepreneurship and Employment Incubation Base.

"It's a great honor to stand here and share the entrepreneurial experience of Youjie Home Services Company... We need to clearly define our market positioning and accurately grasp user needs..."

On the small stage directly in front, Shen Yuyan stood behind a dark wooden podium, her posture elegant and dignified.

A few strands of hair fell across her fair and delicate face, her eyes were clear and bright, and her voice was warm and soothing.

It attracted the attention of everyone in the audience.

There weren't many activities in the morning; they mainly consisted of opening remarks, speeches by leaders, and experience sharing.

Shen Yuyan, who has been actively involved in the Yan City University entrepreneurship circle for many years, has close ties with the incubation base.

They also received a lot of support from the government at the beginning of their business.

Today, Youjie Home Services has achieved stable profitability, has established customer acquisition channels and customer base, and is actively seeking financing, making it a standard example of entrepreneurial success.

They were also cited as role models by the park's leaders and had their experiences shared on stage.

Shen Yuyan would naturally not miss such an opportunity to show off.

Moreover, there were many people from investment institutions in the audience, making it a rare opportunity to showcase the company.

5 p. m.

The event came to a temporary close, and everyone got up and headed to the banquet hall on the second floor to begin the free conversation before the meal.

Shen Yuyan and a few friends sat down near the center, chatting and looking around at the other guests.

He was thinking about how to approach those investment institutions more safely later.

The sound of footsteps approached.

A gentle voice rang out. "Let's sit here too."

Immediately afterwards, Gao Mengting and several alumni sat down at Shen Yuyan's round table.

He took the initiative to greet the people around him.

Since they were all college students starting their own businesses, they were able to strike up a conversation.

"Our Songmei Clothing is about to enter a period of expansion. If you know any outstanding talents related to live streaming, please feel free to recommend them." Gao Mengting stood up, gracefully distributed business cards, and briefly introduced the company's overview.

At least half of the companies in this startup park are related to live streaming.

These professionals all know some suitable people around them, which is one of the reasons she came here.

She had a confident and composed smile on her face, and spoke sincerely and honestly, leaving a very good impression.

Shen Yuyan took the business card, nodded to her, and returned the favor by giving her his own business card.

[Gao Mengting, General Manager, Songmei Apparel Trading Co., Ltd.. ]

She was no stranger to this former vice president of the student union of the Yan City University School of Economics and Management.

After all, she herself is the president of the student union of the School of Yan University of Science and Technology.

The two were students in the same year, both had some reputation in their respective schools, and their Moments overlapped quite a bit.

But this time, she saw a different Gao Mengting.

The biggest changes are in mindset and demeanor, which have made people take notice.

She wasn't sure how much money Tang Song could invest, but she was still very eager to work with these professional investment institutions that brought their own resources and connections.

Moreover, Youjie Home Services is currently only in its Angel Round.

The subsequent Series A and Series B funding rounds will be in the tens of millions, which is definitely not something that individual investors can accomplish.

"Yuyan, Yuyan!" A voice suddenly called out in her ear, interrupting her thoughts.

Shen Yuyan turned her head and saw a familiar figure.

She chuckled softly, "Meng Li, you've finally arrived."

"Hey, I've been entertaining VIPs in the East District and just finished. I came all the way here to see you." Meng Li grabbed her arm and whispered, "Come on, let's meet someone. It's about your company's financing, and this time it's definitely going to be reliable."

Upon hearing her words, Shen Yuyan's eyes instantly brightened.

Meng Li was her college classmate and roommate, and they had always had a good relationship.

The other person successfully landed a job after graduation and is currently working in a public institution.

This "University Student Entrepreneurship Support Conference" was co-organized by their organization.

Since she said that, it proves that the person she's meeting might actually be investing in their company.

Taking a deep breath, Shen Yuyan straightened her hair and collar, adjusted her mindset, and followed Meng Li outside.

After leaving the banquet hall, we turned a corner and finally stopped outside a lounge.

"Knock knock knock—" Meng Li gently knocked on the door.

"Please come in!" A deep, steady male voice came from inside the door.

Push open the door and step into the spacious and bright lounge.

The first thing you see are two formally dressed men sitting on a sofa drinking tea.

One of the middle-aged men was Li Shutong, the operations manager of the startup incubator.

Another young man, not yet 30, had an upright posture, regular features, and the air of a successful person.

Shen Yuyan felt that the face looked familiar, but she couldn't quite place it.

"Manager Li!" "Manager Li!"

The two first greeted Li Shutong.

Li Shutong greeted the young man and said with a smile, "You two chat as you please. I'm going to the banquet hall now. See you later."

After saying that, he got up and left the lounge.

The young man stood up, a bright smile on his face. "Hello, School Beauty Shen, it's been a long time."

A slight embarrassment flashed across Shen Yuyan's face as she nodded politely, "Hello."

Being able to chat privately with this Manager Li in the lounge means he must be someone important; I can't afford to offend him.

Meng Li, standing nearby, chuckled, "Senior Schoolmate Ren, it seems Yuyan doesn't remember you, haha. Let me introduce you, this is Ren Mingyuan, a senior three years ahead of us."

Ren Mingyuan looked at her intently and said, "When School Beauty Shen was a freshman, I was already a senior and had started my own business. We only met a few times at events, so it's understandable that I don't remember her."

"So you're my senior!" Shen Yuyan chuckled. "Don't use that title. I graduated three years ago, it sounds a bit awkward. Just call me by my name."

"Okay, Yuyan!" Ren Mingyuan nodded. "Please sit down, junior sisters. I only learned about Youjie Home Services this time when I came to Yancheng. I happen to have some ideas about it too, so let's talk about it."

Upon hearing this, Shen Yuyan's heart skipped a beat.

She has excellent observation skills and emotional intelligence; she can clearly sense confidence and composure from the other person's tone of voice and actions.

Shen Yuyan pursed her lips and sat down on the sofa with Meng Li.

Ren Mingyuan offered to pour two cups of tea, briefly introduced his background, and began to explain his purpose and thoughts.

A student majoring in Internet of Things Engineering in the Computer Science Department, Class of 2013, Yan City University of Science and Technology.

During my senior year of college, I formed a team with my classmates and, with the support of the school and government, started a business in the field of smart home.

Since 2017, the smart home industry has been experiencing rapid development.

In particular, the market entered a phase of explosive growth in 2020.

They seized this opportunity, gradually growing stronger, attracting capital, moving to the Imperial Capital, and establishing their own product lines and sales channels.

Having firmly established itself in the smart home field, the company earned nearly ten million yuan in profit last year.

After listening to this successful entrepreneurial story.

Shen Yuyan's emotions were in turmoil.

This is the kind of entrepreneurship and success she has always dreamed of: a promising future, a united partner, and the favor of capital.

She picked up her teacup, took a sip, and asked, "Senior, what do you mean?"

Ren Mingyuan looked at the university beauty and smiled, saying, "I'm currently the company's vice president, and also in charge of Strategic Investment. Housekeeping and cleaning are direct contacts with families, and they mainly rely on word-of-mouth marketing. My main reason for investing in Youjie Home Services is to cooperate with you. We can complement and expand our services, conduct joint marketing, and enhance user loyalty. As the housekeeping company grows, we can help Gongying Technology promote our home furnishing products."

Upon hearing this, Shen Yuyan tightened her grip on the teacup slightly, her eyes gleaming with excitement.

Freshheart Gardens.

Tang Song did a final check to make sure nothing was left behind, and then thoroughly cleaned the room once more.

I took a photo and sent it to my landlord, Lu Ziming.

The message read, "Ziming, I moved all my things out today, and the house is now empty. I've put the electricity card, water card, keys, and everything in the drawer in the master bedroom. Come back and check it out. By the way, are you free tonight? I'd like to treat you to dinner."

The Mobile Phone rang shortly after the message was sent.

It was Lu Ziming who called.

The call was connected.

A familiar voice came through the receiver. "Hey, Old Song."

Tang Song leaned back in his chair and said, "Hey, Ziming, how are you? Are you free tonight?"

Lu Ziming was silent for a moment, then hesitated before saying, "I have time, but... Old Song, I have something I'd like to ask you for help with."

"Just tell me, why are you suddenly being so long-winded? This isn't like you."

"Could we bring Tian Jing along to dinner tonight? My sister works in the Sales Department of Zhongcheng Group, and I'd like to get to know her and make friends."

Upon hearing this, Tang Song instantly understood.

Tian Jing's father, Tian Chengye, is the Executive Director of Zhongcheng Group. For employees, getting to know Tian Jing would definitely make their future career path a hundred times smoother.

"Okay, I'll ask Tian Jing if she's free tonight."

"Okay, thank you, Old Song!"

After hanging up the phone, Tang Song sent a message to Tian Jing on WeChat.

Xiao Jing: "Of course, no problem. Just send me the address, and I'll head over right after work."

Tang Song checked the time and replied, "I happen to be nearby. I'll come pick you up later, and we'll go together."

There was only one hour left before she got off work, and Freshheart Gardens was near Linjin Building, so it was convenient to get there.

Xiao Jing: "Okay, see you later."

[Xiao Jing: Kiss. gif]

Tang Song replied with a kissing emoji and sent another message to Lu Ziming, agreeing on the restaurant address.

I put away my Mobile Phone, picked up the last storage bag, went downstairs, and put it in the trunk.

It has to be said, the Wuling Hongguang is really good at carrying things.

With so much stuff inside, there's still plenty of space in the trunk.

After locking his car, Tang Song strolled along the tree-lined path in the quiet and cozy neighborhood.

Looking at the familiar green landscape around me, I recalled the scenes of exercising and losing weight here before.

17:50.

"Vroom vroom vroom—" The Wuling Hongguang S started smoothly and drove out of Freshheart Gardens Community along the clean and flat cement road.

At this time of day, traffic jams have already started to appear on the roads in Yancheng.

After walking and stopping for 5 minutes, we finally arrived at the Linjin Building.

Tang Song parked the car in the designated parking area, took a picture, and shared it with Xiao Jing.

Standing beside the car, I watched the flow of people coming and going, and waited quietly.

The orange sunlight fell on him, making Tang Song, dressed in high-end casual wear, stand out even more.

It attracted the attention of many young women and wives passing by.

"Mr. Tang!" A surprised voice rang out from the side.

Tang Song turned around and smiled, "Brother Guo, it's you."

Hearing the familiar address and tone of voice, and especially seeing the Wuling Hongguang, Guo Peng's awkward expression gradually eased.

I recalled the process of the two of us buying a car together.

Guo Peng patted the Wuling Hongguang van and said with a smile, "Is Mr. Tang waiting for someone? Is it a colleague from our company?"

"Yes." Tang Song nodded, Wei Xiao, and pointed behind him. "The person I've been waiting for has arrived."

Guo Peng turned around in surprise and saw a bouncy figure rushing towards them.

Wearing a pretty white dress and with her hair in pigtails, she looked sweet and lovely, with a sexy figure.

Tian Jing?

Immediately afterwards, Tian Jing, the company's goddess, rushed over and embraced Tang Song tightly.

Her voice Ruan Ruan and sweet as she said, "Song! I missed you so much! I brought you a lot of gifts from my trip to Spring City, but they're all at home. I'll give them to you tonight!"

Guo Peng's expression instantly stiffened.
