Chapter 351: Good-Tempered Boss

Without waiting for Li Xin's sarcastic words to speak, Yu Wenfei continued: "Make great products, products that can change people's lifestyles, and change or even subvert the traditional economic model!

Li Xin smashed his mouth, he couldn't refute this, if he could do it, he would indeed be great.

"What products can change people's lifestyles and subvert traditional economic models?" he asked curiously.

Yu Wenfei just smiled, "This question can only be accessed after you join Star Technology and make enough achievements, and it is still a company secret." ”

Although it is a pity, Li Xin also understands that he is not his own person in Star Technology, and of course there are some things that he can't tell himself.

"I'm really looking forward to seeing such a great product as you mentioned one day! If I join Star Technology, will I be able to arrange my working hours and content freely? Just do what I want to do. He looked at Yu Wenfei a little defiantly.

This request was a bit too unreasonable, and Lu Qi next to him began to shake his head.

As a result, Yu Wenfei replied happily: "Under the framework stipulated by the company, you can arrange your own working hours and content, I only look at the results and not the process! If you are confident that you can make a satisfactory product, then nothing else is a problem! Technicians never rely on punctual commuting to and from work to make good products, what is needed is inspiration and self-possession." ”

In fact, after reading Li Xin's resume, Yu Wenfei had an idea.

That is, since Li Xin has worked in ICQ for two years, he can be entrusted with his company's network instant messaging software.

I believe that he has enough ability to make a good product, and the thing itself is not a high-tech thing, but more about user experience and picking out details.

In this regard, Li Xin's "stubbornness" is just right.

"Then what products does the company want me to do?" Li Xin asked.

"In addition to the main project that the company is working on, there are many other projects that I can authorize you to set up a project team and develop a network instant messaging software, similar to OICQ. Yu Wenfei said with a smile.

This is exactly what Li Xin wants!

The reason why he left ICQ was that he felt that ICQ had changed its flavor after being acquired by AOL.

Originally, ICQ was developed to make Internet users communicate more freely and smoothly, but after being acquired by AOL, ICQ became a tool for AOL to make profits.

AOL's acquisition of ICQ cost a huge amount of money, a full $280 million!

Of course, this money has to be recovered, so after AOL acquired ICQ, it began to monetize traffic frantically.

When you open a chat window, it's full of ads!

App open ads, pop-up ads, and even every time you say a word, there will be an ad behind it, and the user experience is terrible to the extreme!

It is because of AOL's short-sightedness that ICQ was able to easily dominate the global network of instant messaging, but as a result, many "little brothers" appeared and grabbed food with it.

Li Xin also couldn't stand the fact that ICQ had become an "advertising tool" and resigned angrily.

His ideal is to make a real communication software that is only for the convenience of netizens.

Freedom, sharing, free! This is the true spirit of the Internet.

As a result, Li Xin also happily joined Star Technology Company.

After Li Xin and Lu Qi went out, Hu Jingjing asked Yu Wenfei curiously: "This Li Xin is so rude to speak, I feel very arrogant, why do you tolerate him so much?"

"Hehe, it's normal for people who do technology to have a little temper. When dealing with these people, you should try to tolerate their shortcomings and help them to use their talents. If you want to be a big company, you don't just need to recruit people who can do things, but also people who make products in a down-to-earth manner. ”

Yu Wenfei understands people like Li Xin, with high IQ and low EQ, it is definitely not good to do business and management, but when it comes to making products, this kind of person is like a fish in water.

In the Internet industry, there are many such people who have made amazing achievements, such as the famous Qiao gang leader, and Zhang Moulong, the father of WeChat in China, who are all similar personalities.

WeChat's Lao Zhang is even more excessive than Qiao's gang leader, Qiao's gang master's family is also the boss of the company, and others can only endure it if he is willful.

But Lao Zhang was acquired by Tencent Xiaoma, and at the beginning he was just the head of the project department, not even a vice president.

But just as capricious!

Lao Zhang's project department is based in Yangcheng, Tencent is headquartered in Pengcheng, and the group has a regular executive meeting every week.

It is said that you are not a veteran of the company, let alone an employee of the boss, shouldn't you be in attendance on time, but Lao Zhang is not.

He often absentes from the regular executive meeting for no reason, and when asked why he didn't go, Lao Zhang's answer was that the regular meeting started too early and he couldn't get out of bed!

This reason is capricious enough.

Brother Xiao Ma is also good-tempered, he endured it, and later in order to pull Lao Zhang over for a meeting, on the day of each regular meeting, at five or six o'clock in the morning, he sent his own special car to Yangcheng and waited downstairs in Lao Zhang's apartment.

…………

A large number of people is a great power, and there are hundreds of technicians in Star Technology, and it is not easy to develop a blog.

Facebook's functions are much more complex than ordinary blogs, and Lu Qi is also a very experienced product manager, and he personally took charge and pulled up a huge project team.

The core members focused on the development of the basic version of Facebook.

It is to remove the complicated functions required by Yuwenfei first, what free typesetting, what user level upgrade system, what big V certification, these are all put aside.

The first thing to make is a Facebook network that has basic functions, can register, browse, and post article photos, this version, Lu Qi named "Facebook V0.1 version".

The reason why it is named "0.1" instead of "1.0" is because this version of Facebook is far from a complete Facebook network, and a variety of functions will be added one after another, and when it comes to version "1.0", it can be regarded as a preliminary meeting of Yuwenfei's requirements.

Those features that have not been implemented in the "0.1" version are of course not done, but are handed over to the rest of the project team, and go hand in hand with the main project team.

Wait for which sub-project team to make something, then it can be added to the website after it is perfected, and then the version will be updated.

Of course, the current Facebook network is still based on the PC version, which is a website, not a software, so it is more convenient to update, and users do not need to download the update by themselves, and they can update it directly on the company's server.

According to the schedule formulated by Lu Qi, the basic version of Facebook V0.1 will be officially completed and launched in half a month!
