Chapter 72: Estrangement
Lin Xi got up early in the morning, walked the black sweet, carried a light small canvas bag, and walked beside the familiar river.
The air was full of earth mixed with the smell of flowers, from the community all the way to the subway station, and then squeezed into the subway with the flow of people, Lin Xi, who had not experienced the morning rush hour for a long time, now experienced the profundity of the magic capital again.
Standing on tiptoe through the gap between the shoulders and shoulders of the two men in front of him, the male host broadcast the grand occasion of the Huawei Developer Conference and the launch of China's own operating system, HarmonyOS.
Although the subway signal is still psychedelic, but at this time most people on the subway are looking at the jumping pictures on the TV, in the face of the steady stream of bad news this year, the Internet winter, Hong Kong incidents, exchange rate problems, etc., at this time Huawei's information is like a shot in the arm, so that every Chinese is excited.
Lin Xi's eyes were a little red, the so-called harsh winter, the so-called sanctions, the so-called blockade, encirclement and suppression, in front of the weak like an insurmountable moat, but once the will defeats weakness and persistence defeats retreat, maybe we can create more miracles.
Walking out of the subway station, the bamboo on the side of the road to the business park is already very thick, and the wind rustles the bamboo leaves, which also brings the fresh smell of bamboo, and the smell of Lin Xi's grassy perfume today wafts in the air.
"Boss!" As soon as Lin Xi walked to the door, Jiao Ao greeted him: "Sister Rong and Brother Hui are here!"
Lin Xi tilted his head and saw two familiar figures in the rest area.
After chatting for a while, it turned out that Li Yirong and Zhen Zhaohui had already submitted their resignations, Li Yirong belonged to the executive level, and his immediate superior was Liu Jun, who had been quickly approved and approved, and he could officially resign after a month. And Zhen Zhaohui is a senior manager, and he needs to wait for Sheng Fan to come back to sign the approval opinion.
"And what's next for you?"
Now that the external environment is not good, the executive level is going to be pressed on salary, and the management is too much porridge and too little, Lin Xi feels that they are indeed a little impulsive to leave at this time.
Li Yirong sighed: "If you are looking for a job, if you can't find it, you can learn something and further your studies." ”
"I still have a little deposit. Zhen Zhaohui is also ready to not receive money for a period of time.
Lin Xi thought for a moment and asked Zhen Zhaohui and Li Yirong to wait for a while.
Zhao Donglai happened to be in the company today, Lin Xi just knocked on the door and entered, and Zhao Donglai said "brother and sister" Lin Xi was so uncomfortable.
"Mr. Zhao, is there still a lack of products and operations in our online mall carefully selected projects?" Since the project has been planned by Zhao Donglai and Fu Junhuai, it was announced to the employees not long ago that so far, there is no one at the workstation of the technology research and development department.
Recently, in order to find the right candidate, my head has become big, and I really have to recruit an HR. "When it comes to product development, the old man of ZF-link said that he would bring a few capable employees to come over, but he was only a front-end and back-end developer, and the product manager of ZF-link was not easy to poach.
"The product director and product operation of Orange Song downstairs just left, why don't you make an appointment to chat?" Lin Xi is overjoyed, it is really better to come early than to come by coincidence, Zhen Zhaohui and Li Yirong may really be able to join North and South Technology.
Zhao Donglai slapped his thigh and set the time, and Lin Xi hurriedly informed Zhen Zhaohui and Li Yirong that they were ready to resume and adjust the time to come for an interview.
"It's so good, the four happy balls are going to be reunited again. Jiao Ao leaned back in the chair with a happy expression, but Chu Wenwen looked confused: "What balls?
"Whether you can come or not depends on the results of the interview. Lin Xi smiled, it's too early to make a conclusion, whether it is salary or position, North and South Technology, as a start-up, should not be able to give Orange Song such a good treatment, and Fu Junhuai is still very cautious about employing people, after Zhao Donglai's interview, he may also be brushed off by Fu Junhuai.
As soon as Zhen Zhaohui and Li Yirong went downstairs, they met Long Bei walking upstairs with a box of pastries.
As a confirmed resignation, Li Yirong didn't give a good face at all, snorted coldly, and leaned sideways for fear of getting Long Bei dirty his arm.
The thought of seeing her every day in the future made me feel sick. The two passed by, and Li Yirong unwillingly made up for it.
Long Bei stopped, Li Yirong had something to say, could it be that he was upstairs......
"Mr. Zhao, this is a small snack baked by myself, let's make breakfast for you. As soon as Long Bei entered Zhao Donglai's office, she naturally sat on the sofa.
"I didn't expect it, Manager Long is beautiful and has a strong business, and his hands are so skillful. Zhao Donglai didn't hesitate to praise her a few more words, there are more friends, the road is easy to walk, and I feel that Long Bei's road is quite wild.
Long Bei's eyes rolled, and she asked Zhao Donglai coincidentally: "Mr. Zhao, I have a reluctant request." ”
Manager Long spoke. ”
"I have two colleagues with whom I have a good relationship who were dissuaded because they made a mistake in the company, but they are very capable of business. I heard you say that you are forming a technical team, one of them is a product manager, and the other is a product operation, I wonder if you can come for an interview?"
"Oh, what a coincidence, Lin Xi also recommended it to me, it should be the two you said. "Zhao Donglai tasted a bite of dim sum, this craftsmanship is definitely not bad compared to the brand store, it is how to eat and how to feel like you have eaten in which store......
......
As soon as Sheng Fan arrived at the company, he sent a WeChat message to Lin Xi, I didn't expect them to develop so fast, it seems that in the financing circle, her two founders still have some resources and connections.
With the help of Lin Xi's relationship, get to know these two young and promising founders, and maybe support each other in the field of financing.
"Mr. Sheng. Lin Xi came to Sheng Fan's office, and Sheng Fan invited Lin Xi to sit down on the sofa and talk in detail.
Lin Xi briefly introduced the company's entrepreneurial process, and he really didn't know before moving upstairs to Orange Song.
Sheng Fan raised his head and smiled heartily: "This shows that your fate with Orange Song and a few of our old buddies is not over." ”
"Even if there is no such thing, I will always be friends with Orange Song and you. Lin Xi sincerely thinks that Sheng Fan is a friend worth making, although in the management of the company, there may still be some shortcomings, but as a friend, he is indeed worth befriending.
"The current market environment is really not good, this time I went to Beijing, met with several investors, and the conversation was not smooth. Sheng Fan didn't hide anything in the face of Lin Xi, and the current situation, even if he didn't say it, anyone who knew a little bit about the market could guess eight or nine points.
Lin Xi lowered his head, in this regard, he really can't help, I only hope that everyone can carry it together.
"Your company can still get venture capital in such a grim situation, and the founder has some background. Sheng Fan looked at Lin Xi, and Lin Xi nodded.
"In fact, as far as I know, the two founders are not supported by original capital, mainly because the development of ZF-link was quite smooth before, and many angel investors are still very optimistic about the two of them. ”
Sheng Fan nodded after listening, indeed, the angel wheel looks at the project but more on the person. Now Orange Song is facing the most critical Series C financing, but it just happened to encounter a capital winter, and the company must try its best to make its own blood while continuously saving expenses, otherwise it will face turmoil and layoffs.
And the money on Orange Song's books now is only enough to support about 6 months.
"If you have the opportunity, you can get to know each other, and this period is to keep warm. ”
Lin Xi nodded, and promised Sheng Fan to wait for Fu Junhuai to return from the United States, and he would definitely form a bureau for everyone to meet.
Lin Xi stepped out of Sheng Fan's office with his front foot, and Long Bei and Liu Jun walked in with his back foot.
After briefly explaining the recent flow of personnel in the department, Sheng Fan touched his forehead: "Let's go, now the company can't raise idlers, I have asked HR to draw up the last elimination system, all of you have a fixed elimination quota, and you also take advantage of this time to exercise the team well, and if you can't keep up with the rhythm, you will be persuaded to retire as soon as possible." ”
"We understand this, and we are already doing detailed performance appraisal standards. Long Bei paused after speaking: "It's Zhaohui's departure, which is a bit surprising." ”
Sheng Fan frowned: "Zhaohui can't go, he is the only one who can see the product in the company, and whoever loves the rest will go." ”
Zhen Zhaohui was born in a big factory, and to be poached, the headhunters, the HR department and himself have put a lot of thought into it.
"But I heard he was going upstairs. Liu Jun gave Long Bei a look, and Long Bei lowered her head and smiled.
"What?" this greatly surprised Sheng Fan.
A few days after Lin Xicai moved in, Zhen Zhaohui and Li Yirong proposed to resign, all of which were employees who had deep contact with her before. I thought it was just a coincidence, but now it's actually being poached?
"It stands to reason that Sister Xi shouldn't be such a person, you wanted to help her last time. Long Bei pinched the corner of her clothes and looked at Sheng Fan.
Sheng Fan recalled, could it be that she didn't help her at the beginning, she always remembered it?
Sheng Fan's angry expression now made Long Bei quite satisfied, and at Sheng Fan's request, Long Bei and Liu Jun called Zhen Zhaohui to the conference room and withdrew.
"I really didn't expect it, Lin Xi is a praying mantis catching cicadas, and you are indeed a yellow finch behind. Liu Jun squinted his small eyes and looked at Long Bei with his buckteeth.
Long Bei lifted her collar: "This matter is because she is not kind." After that, he twisted his waist and sat back at his desk.
"Tut-tut, it's really the most poisonous woman's heart. Liu Jun muttered and laughed, this plot was quite enjoyable to watch.
As soon as Zhen Zhaohui leaves, no one should dare to refute the needs of the operation department on the product research and development side, Sheng Fan is disgusted with Lin Xi's words, and he will never take out Lin Xi's achievements in the content line again and again to whip him.
"Have you decided?"
"I have to go. ”
No matter how Sheng Fan retained, and even opened a bargaining chip to increase the performance bonus during such a period, Zhen Zhaohui was still determined to leave.
"Why the hell? I don't understand, and you said you didn't find a home, so why did you leave? ”
"The current Orange Song is not for me. ”
"Then upstairs is for you?"
As soon as Sheng Fan's words came out, Zhen Zhaohui didn't react much, since it was Long Bei who called him in, he must have added fuel and vinegar before this.
"Submit your resume and give it a try. ”
Sheng Fan covered his head, Lin Xi, Lin Xi, you really gave me a big gift when you came this time......
