On the afternoon of March 25, a "brainstorming" on the communication and expression of entrepreneurs swept into the lecture hall of Fuchun Silicon Valley near the Fuchun River in Hangzhou. 160 entrepreneurs from all over the country crowded into the lecture hall which was originally full of 100 people. What attracts entrepreneurs to come is Cui Lei, host of the famous program Dream Acceleration, angel investor and "entrepreneurial talent scout" in the venture capital industry. He was ready to share his experience from hundreds of venture capital negotiations with the entrepreneurs who came to the scene.

Before the event began, the reporter interviewed several entrepreneurs at random
"I heard that this is the first stop of the Taledeyi event in China. I am looking forward to it, so I came here with my partners."
"I am an engineering man, not very good at expression and communication, and I participated in this activity to improve my ability in this aspect."

Cui Lei's sharp comments, witty expressions and interesting examples did not make the scene burst into laughter.
"The same idea, if you rephrase it, you may succeed in getting financing!"
"Can investors understand you when you put it this way?"
"When I was doing a risk assessment defense with the investment institutions that invested in our Leke Unicorn, they came to more than 20 people against me. I thought, five million angel rounds, not so many people. Later I know why, I was very easy to end the defense after coming out, entered a main board IPO project boss."
"Don't be stubborn, investors are probably giving you the right advice!"
It is understood that another guest speaker of the event is also influential. Zi Liu, former president of Taobao Technology University and investor of Yuan Gem Capital, shared the theme of "How to drink coffee with investors gracefully" on the scene. This paper expounds the importance of communication of entrepreneurs from the perspective of their own investors.

An entrepreneur who made a special trip from Jinhua to Hangzhou Fuchun Silicon Valley told reporters with a smile: "My project has actually achieved good results, but every time I face investors, I always can't express it accurately, and the project financing progress is not promising. Today, I came to attend the activity lected by Cui Lei, hoping to improve this aspect. At the same time, I also hope to ask Cui Lei to help me diagnose the project, and it is better to appear on the program "Acceleration of Dreams" and then connect with investors.

It is understood that Cui Lei, the keynote speaker of this event, as a well-known Zhejiang radio and television host, he founded the national venture capital reality show "Dream Acceleration" (originally Le Chuang Dream Workshop), which is known as "efficient investment and financing dialogue". Over the past three years, he has recorded more than 500 programs and invited partners from hundreds of investment institutions across the country. Cui Lei has personally conducted in-depth analysis of more than 5,000 entrepreneurial projects, participated in financing negotiations for more than 900 hours, and served as the host and judge of 100 entrepreneurial roadshows and competitions. He has helped entrepreneurs raise more than 300 million yuan in total through the column "Dream Acceleration". It is with such rich experience in investment and financing negotiation docking and communication that Cui Lei attaches particular importance to the importance of communication ability of entrepreneurs.
"Good projects, good communication, VCS like. It is a long road to venture capital financing. When seeking venture capital, entrepreneurs should not only polish their own projects and business models, but also master relevant financing communication skills to enhance their competitive advantages. That's why we're hosting this event. I'm going to travel across the country to bring my thoughts and experience to local entrepreneurs. Events in Ningbo, Nanjing, Shenzhen, Shanghai, Beijing and many other cities are in the works." Cui Lei said.
