In order to choose a good and appropriate R&D manager, since Shao Yipeng was fired, Hu Mingchen had to interview one in person.

Now the talent market has not started, and Hu Mingchen does not have so much time to spend here, so Hu Mingchen can only sort out the personnel of the current R&D department once and find out one who can be qualified for this position.

At present, the vast majority of the personnel in the R&D department are newcomers who have just graduated from domestic science and engineering universities, and it is precisely because of this that Shao Yipeng's resume will be top-notch.

It's just that Hu Mingchen combed through their resumes and through interviews, and really let him find a person who can hold this position.

He Xin, graduated from the University of Science and Technology of China with a bachelor's degree and a master's degree in electronic science and technology, and the R&D engineer of Pengbo Electronics was his first job, but Hu Mingchen saw from his resume that he has been engaged in related research for more than four years, and has published more than five papers in core journals and university journals.

Although his papers were too academic for Hu Mingchen to understand, Hu Mingchen knew that He Xin's research was what Pengbo Electronics needed.

"He Xin, do you know what I talked to you for?" In the conference room, Hu Mingchen and He Xin sat across the conference table, and Hu Mingchen pulled aside the information about He Xin in front of him and asked.

"You know, there are already a lot of people in our R&D department, and you are looking for a new R&D manager. He Xin nodded.

"Do you think you're up to the task, or are you interested in this new position?" Hu Mingchen continued.

"It would be a lie to say that I am not interested at all, but I know what I am capable of, and I am afraid that I am not up to the task. ”

"Are you so insecure in yourself? I don't think you're a person who lacks self-confidence. Hu Mingchen leaned back in his chair and asked for a long time.

"I'm really confident in myself, but there are some things that you can't do without confidence. I have just graduated for more than a year, I have no senior experience and experience, and I have no background in studying abroad, and for the research and development of the electronic information industry, whether it is an enterprise or a first-class academic unit, I like the United States, or the United Kingdom, and even Japan, which are good universities in these advanced countries to return from a doctorate or master's degree. With these two points, I don't feel like I have a show. He Xin realistically denied Hu Mingchen's speculation and judgment, and then analyzed Hu Mingchen.

"Hehe, isn't it still your lack of self-confidence. Hu Mingchen chuckled softly.

"Your logic...... I don't understand how to deduce it. I'm just stating a fact, is this also not confident? In Pengcheng, how many of those R&D managers and R&D directors of large companies don't want to meet the two I said?" He Xin's eyes looked at Hu Mingchen through his glasses and said.

If Hu Mingchen is not very iron-fisted to fire Shao Yipeng, then He Xin will still despise him a little in the face of Hu Mingchen, after all, Hu Mingchen is younger and less qualified than him.

However, Hu Mingchen's actions towards Shao Yipeng made He Xin dare not easily despise Hu Mingchen. What's more, Hu Mingchen's words at the meeting did move and admire He Xin, He Xin can be said to appreciate and agree with Hu Mingchen's judgment on future communication products, he feels that the function of mobile phones will become very powerful, and even give birth to some new industries.

Because of this, He Xin's eyes when he looked at Hu Mingchen were complicated.

"Others are others, they are themselves, even if 99% of the company's selection is the standard you say, but there are one percent exceptions, I absolutely do not believe that the whole country is a ruler cut down one size fits all, so if you are really confident, you will feel that you should be that one percent. Objectively, there is still an overall gap between us and the developed countries in the West in science and technology, but this does not mean that we do not have talent, cannot train talent, and still less does it mean that we are lagging behind in every aspect. ”

"Could it be...... Would you really choose me to preside over the company's R&D work?" He Xin asked in confusion and disbelief.

"Why not? Unless you feel like you're inferior, unless you feel like all technology is going to be monopolized by white people forever, I really can't find a reason why you can't. Hu Mingchen shrugged his shoulders and said.

"I never feel that I am inferior to others, maybe in the international horizontal comparison, there will indeed be many people who are better than me, but as far as the domestic situation is concerned, I am confident that I am already at the forefront of the level. He Xin straightened his chest and said.

Perhaps in order to prove that he could, He Xin deliberately made his tone aggravated.

"Are you at the forefront of the country?" Hu Mingchen just thought He Xin could, but he didn't expect him to be so confident and so loud.

"Yes, in this kind of research, I believe I will not lose to anyone, of course, I am only talking about the research I am currently engaged in, and you proposed to develop smartphones, which involves a lot of professional subdivisions, in other aspects, it is only up to others. ”

"Of course I know that you can't be the best in every field, and not Albert Einstein. After all, a smartphone has a lot of hardware, not to mention that it also involves operating systems and software. A R&D department needs a lot of talents, needs a lot of excellent professionals, and only when everyone works together can we come up with complete research results. The manager of the R&D department is just a leader, a commanding general, he is not particularly important technically, but he must be able to distinguish, be able to lead and supervise everyone to complete their respective research tasks, so that he is a technician, I think the word "manager" defines him more as a manager, is an expert in the integration of resources. All in all, vision and management ability are more important, and Shao Yipeng lacks vision. Hu Mingchen said.

He Xin savored Hu Mingchen's words for a while, and then responded: "I don't dare to guarantee that I will be able to achieve satisfactory results for you, but I will do my best and do it actively." ”

"Hehe, then tell me what I think about the development of smartphones, I would love to hear your opinion. Although Hu Mingchen was basically satisfied with He Xin, he didn't plan to let him go just like that, but also looked at his thinking ability.

"In fact, I also believe that the mobile phone will become intelligent, will continue to have the function of the heart to produce and join in, you talk about the smart phone, my understanding is the complete combination of PDA and existing mobile phones, in my preset, there will be such a product within five years, of course, it is unlikely to be manufactured by domestic manufacturers. Because our domestic enterprises do not have technical reserves in this area at all, and everyone is eager for quick success, and would rather spend money to buy other people's technology at that time. Our company is only now investing in this area of research and development, and it is a little late, but there is still a good opportunity. ”

"Anything else?" asked Hu Mingchen.

"What I just said is opportunity, that is, the good side, but I also want to pour a little cold water from reality objectively. With us, it is really difficult to completely develop and manufacture by ourselves in a short period of time, and it is almost impossible to master all the technologies. On the one hand, there is the problem of R&D investment, which is really very little compared to the billion-dollar R&D investment of large national enterprises. There is also the fact that we entered late, there are no technical reserves, and everything has to start from scratch. And one of the most important things, that is time. We may be able to do it, maybe we can go step by step, and we can develop it, but at that time, the entire market is estimated to have been swallowed up by others. The market won't give us that much time and space, it's very realistic, and we have to think about it. He Xin said.

Hu Mingchen nodded deeply, he had to admit that He Xin's analysis was in place, objective, and completely in line with the reality of the market.

FOR EXAMPLE, TEN YEARS LATER, PENGBO ELECTRONICS CAN DEVELOP A IPHONE OF ITS OWN, BUT WHAT'S THE USE, THIS IS ALREADY A BACKWARD MODEL, AND THE MARKET HAS BEEN ELIMINATED.

Often, only the one who wins the first place can distribute the largest cake, and if the time drags on for too long, not to mention the cake and meat, it is estimated that there will be no leftover soup and water.

Hu Mingchen felt that He Xin could think of this, and maybe he would have a solution himself.

"Then how do you think we should resolve it, and how can we catch up?" Hu Mingchen continued.

"There is no way, there are no shortcuts to scientific research, if there is any...... Then we have to find other companies to cooperate, such as the CPU part, we have to overcome the difficulties by ourselves, the capital investment will be massive, and it is too late, then, why don't we find international related companies to cooperate, well, that is, we spend money to buy them, such as Deyi company, Qualcomm company, and operating system, this is not something that can be done in a short time, and it will take a lot of time to test alone. This is also possible to cooperate, in this way, we can put manpower and limited funds in the aspects that we can reach, such as ***, such as mobile phone batteries, such as audio and video conversion, in this way, although we can not master the core technology at once, but we can also gain and accumulate, and at the same time lay a certain foundation for the future development of processors and operating systems. ”

"You mean, take small steps and break through while learning?"

"Your summary is very in place, that is, small steps and fast steps, while learning and breaking through, this is the most suitable strategy for us, one bite is not a fat man. An excellent high-tech company is simply not something that can be achieved in three or five years. Anyway, we can't build such a complete scientific research team and research platform all at once, that's my opinion. ”
