Over the past few days, Cheng Zhu had been receiving daily reports from the external teams.
Among them were the locations for new stores in first and second-tier cities, and whether there were new high-end bubble tea shops in these big cities.
Taking four first-tier cities as an example, nine high-end bubble tea brands had opened recently.
Half of them had prices similar to Youu Tea, and the rest were slightly lower, ranging from 25 to 30 yuan.
These stores were all imitating Youu Tea's model, making cheese-capped fresh fruit bubble tea.
But some managed to replicate it decently, while others merely produced a vague semblance.
Cheng Zhu didn't take them too seriously.
"Let them also have a good New Year."
And believe it or not, he was actually quite amiable about it!
At the moment, he was on the phone with a middle-aged man named Liu Quan.
This individual, introduced by Yue Dongyi from Pulin Capital, primarily assisted in leveraging connections and arranging opportunities.
