Chapter 228: Ecological Chain
This year, the company has recruited a lot of people, and a lot of people have left.
Some people don't adapt to the working atmosphere of Galaxy Network Company, some people have just been poached and are poached by companies with better conditions, and some people are inspired to leave the company and start their own business, but there are only a few who are fired because of their lack of ability and conduct.
James didn't know what kind of idea the four people who left after dropping a letter of resignation left didn't want a letter of recommendation, not even a few days of salary for a few days of work this month, and expected to start a business on their own, how could they still need a letter of recommendation when they became a boss.
I don't know how expensive firewood and rice are not at home, thinking of these young drunkards who are really easy to start a business, James has a playful smile on his face, the company's technology and products are registered with patents, and he is not afraid that anyone will dare to infringe, the company's products are free to use, but it does not mean that even patents are free.
Now from time to time, someone finds Su Mutou and begs him for financial help, James has known Su Mu for a long time, and knows that this Chinese boss who is slack years older than himself has no shortage of ability, means, luck, and brains, and he is involved in the personal computer retail industry at the best time, and he is lucky to earn his current worth.
There are always rumors in the company, and many arrogant software engineers often say that Su Mu is lucky, as if a few years ago anyone could make money by selling computers, which James dismisses, a huge United States, how many people like Su Mu make hundreds of millions of dollars in a few years?
If you want to say that the company is the most capable of leaving, it should be him James.
All the projects have passed through James, he knows a little bit about the various options, and he has been in Silicon Valley for so many years, and he wants to invest without worry.
In recent months, the IT industry has been poaching people, Oracle is digging IBM, IBM is digging Apple, Apple is digging Microsoft, and headhunters are all moving, and someone has also approached James, and a company offered an annual salary of $800,000 and asked him to be a supervisor, but he was rejected.
I know that I don't have the ability to open a company, I failed many times when I was young, but now I think about it, I feel that I have to fail most of the time, and Su Mu has money and brains, and the company's four major projects cover all aspects of the Internet, so it is naturally easier to succeed.
Knowing that the boss is a nostalgic person, otherwise he would not have given Li Ping'an ten percent of Penguin shares back then, look at Blake and a group of other old employees, no one was treated badly by him.
James didn't dare to expect himself to try, he just wanted to follow Su Mu, not to mention that he had earned more than three million dollars in the past few years, and there were five million worth of option shares waiting for him, and he was indeed not disadvantaged.
The old employees knew that Su Mu was generous, and the new employees were not satisfied, and they were arrogant, so he threw a few resignation letters that he knew was insincere without reading them into the trash, as if talking to himself, and said to the other employees who looked around:
"There are more than 7,000 Silicon Valley companies, and there are a few that can emerge, and it's good to leave, and if anyone wants to resign and leave as soon as possible, I will definitely not keep them"
Su Mu knows that the company is difficult to manage, especially the people who are attracted by high salaries and jump ship, it is difficult for them to work together with the company.
But it doesn't matter, now he just needs these people not to be lazy and help develop what they want, and in the future, the heart will stay with the company, and the heart can be kicked out.
Hearing James tell him that someone had resigned again and hadn't even packed up his things, Su Mu immediately guessed something, and said with a smile: "Why are you in such a hurry, at least take away the things that belong to them."
It's really a springboard for our company, steal some technology and quickly slip away, ignore these guys, most of them can't get any fame, it's good to have competition, otherwise one day you really meet a strong enemy, and you don't even know how to fail. They do the program, I do the Internet ecological chain, although it is a good time, but I am really worried that I can't fight those small companies, there are many examples of overturning in the gutter in Silicon Valley, the idea that I just came up with in the past few days, you see how the idea is"
Internet ecological chain.
The idea was just put forward not long ago, and those experts didn't have much ability to do real things, and they talked about it on paper.
Last year, the idea of hypertext linking, which was born out of the concept of hypertext, was patented by a British professor, and he never came to Su Mu, nor did he initiate a lawsuit, and he didn't know where to hide and wait to disgust him.
Su Mu is not afraid of being sued by him, he is most afraid that the patent will fall into the hands of someone with a heart, Su Mu can be regarded as open to this, the big deal is to end up with a dead fish and a broken net, a net is not a big problem, now there is no shortage of money to spend, not as fragile as when he first started his business.
Usually read more books are beneficial, last month Su Mu saw an article, after pondering it felt reasonable, so it was directly adopted, Internet companies work hard alone, if you are not careful, you will be slapped to death on the beach by the back waves, and form a product ecological chain, so as to attract a large number of loyal users, the ability to resist pressure will undoubtedly be much stronger.
There is no shortage of smart people in the world, with the popularization of the Internet, many people's paper talk has a place, in just half a year, there are more than 1,000 companies in Silicon Valley at once, they will not read Su Mu's good, many of them have become competitors with Su Mu, such as search engines, Su Mu alone knows that there are six Internet companies are involved, and Galaxy's browser project is currently progressing the fastest.
Last year, I thought about casting a wide net, catching big fish, and drumming up several projects at a time, I originally thought that there would always be one or two successful ones, but after reading the description of the Internet ecological chain, I found that my company's prototype is very close to the industrial ecological chain, and several projects can complement each other in the future.
There are only a few boxes on the paper, and the words are written in them, and the boxes are connected by wires, and there is "netizen" written in the middle, which is a little strange at first glance, but James understands it and said with a smile: "Great idea, when the time comes, netizens don't need other programs, they only need to use the programs developed by our company, which can meet the vast majority of Internet experience, but for the time being, you can't be in a hurry, the Galaxy Network has just started." ”
"I just have this idea, first find a path that suits our company, and then develop more smoothly and avoid detours.
Of course, now thinking is not necessarily correct, the industry is changing too fast, just like before the establishment of the CNC Alliance, many companies spent a lot of money to establish a local area network, looking back, nothing is useful, the money is wasted. Thanks to the prescient purchase of bulletproof cars, otherwise it is difficult to say what the gamblers who lost all their lives could do, not a loss of more than 100,000 or 200,000, someone smashed tens of millions, and they couldn't even splash a splash. ”
Su Mu didn't think it was his fault, his tone was flat and deceitful, Galaxy has not been busy recently, Penguin's side is really busy, if you want to expand sales, you can't just have quality, you have to build a comprehensive sales channel, and promotion must keep up.
The reason why it has grown faster than Dell, in addition to the reason that it is close to Silicon Valley and close to the water, is that the advertising cost is three times higher than Dell, and Penguin's billboards can be seen in the San Francisco machine building.
The back waves of the Yangtze River push the front waves, the front waves die on the beach, the IT industry is developing too fast, a certain technology will be eliminated if you are not careful, and there have been jokes, a company just released the "PC with the strongest processor performance" the day before, and the next day it happened to meet the Intel chip conference, and the performance suddenly became 65% of the new model.
There are countless examples, understanding the information of Silicon Valley has become the key, making decisions must be careful, making more money in Silicon Valley, losing even more, people only focus on the dozens of companies that have succeeded, and forget that there are thousands of failures behind them.
After listening to Su Mu's words, James sat on the sofa and said: "You are so cautious, this alone is a lot higher than many people, there are a lot of smart people, but some smart people are not suitable for business, they are already good at being kicked out of the company they created, and when they meet a ruthless old fox, they will not only be kicked out of the company, but even the shares will be taken away, just like Jobs, in the face of the radical law, he really threw all the shares in his hand." ”
Su Mu gently retorted: "Apple's business is not good, maybe it's just right to sell at this time, Silicon Valley is not as pure as a few years ago, and there are more and more capital businessmen, just like Hollywood in the forties and fifties, which began to smell of copper." ”
Allen's assistant appeared at the door, knocked on the door and told Su Mu: "Boss, Mr. Larry Bangsen asked someone to send you an invitation, it is said that it is for the recent poaching of people." ”
"Haha! Tell him I'll participate, guess that those people will be anxious, really anxious Y digging each other, the company can't run normally, speaking of which Gates is really ruthless, this time poached Oracle's product manager!
James, I bet this is revenge on Gang Sen for sending someone to rummage through Microsoft's trash can, people say that Gates has a good temper, and people with a good temper are terrible, and my strength is still not enough, and they are almost done discussing before inviting me to participate, do you want to join in the fun with me?"
A group of bigwigs engaged in science and technology, this time because of the poaching incident, James heard about it somewhat, and said: "You bosses, what am I going to do?"
