Lu was an early investor in Luckin Coffee. In mid-April 2020, American investment bank Goldman Sachs announced that it would seize and sell Zhengyao's Luckin stock holdings after he defaulted on a corporate margin loan. In December 2020, he paid a 180-million-dollar fine to the US Securities and Exchange Commission for defrauding investors.
Lu also owns about 33 percent of Car Inc., a Hong Kong-listed car rental company. In May 2021, he announced he was working on the launch of a 500-store noodle stores chain, Xiaomian Riji ('noodle diary').
