Chapter 79: The First Beginning
Xiao Ming now has three paths to take.
First, set up a server and a team to restart the operation of TranslateGou.
It's very stable, but it takes time and effort, and it comes with a large amount of money at once.
The funds that the Xiao family can use are only two million, and it is a bit risky to invest them all.
Second, we will host the Yigou server in Ali Cloud or Penguin Cloud, and then take some charging means (such as advertising) to let Yigou develop slowly and set up its own server in the future.
Third, let Yigou raise funds, obtain angel funds, and even cooperate with some large companies to hand over Yigou to them to manage.
But if you choose the third path, what difference does it make with Penguin?
Either don't do it or do it well. Xiao Ming is ready to let Yigou develop steadily.
Sewage treatment technology has brought stable income to the Xiao family, and Xiao Ming also has the courage to let go.
In a short period of time, Xiao Ming spent some money to rebuild the server in Aliyun, so that Yigou could reopen it after fourteen hours of inactivity.
With the support of Arlicloud, both the degree of stability and the user's experience have been greatly improved.
In order to recover the reputation lost in 14 hours, Xiao Ming distributed benefits to more than 300,000 users, including members worth 20 yuan a month (you can exchange Ozawa's timbre, change fonts, etc.) and free translations of five papers.
In addition, Xiao Ming made a sincere apology on Weibo and software.
"Yigou has just started, we are still facing a lot of difficulties, I hope you can be more understanding and tolerant, grow together with Yigou, and let Yigou better serve everyone!"
Because of its professionalism, the adhesion of users is very strong, and in these fourteen hours, the installed capacity has not decreased, that is, most users are still waiting.
This further illustrates that Yigou is in a technological monopoly position in the market!
There are still two months left to leave school, and these two months are enough for Xiao Ming to make Yigou a real leader in the industry.
With the money earned by Yigou during this period and Xiao Jianqiang's support, Xiao Ming has 500,000 yuan in his bag.
Xiao Ming began to recruit troops.
First of all, I rented an office building in the most prosperous area of Jiangcheng University Town Pioneer Park.
The office is located on the left hand side of the 13th floor of the Guangyao Building, the highest in the Pioneer Park, in the 60-square-meter cottage on the left hand of Area B.
The seat is really shabby, but the rent of the best office building is also expensive! 150 yuan per square meter, this 60 square meters cost 9,000 yuan a month. Water, electricity and broadband are counted separately.
Why did Xiao Ming rent such an expensive location? In order to attract talents. If you're looking for a job, do you go to a bigger office building or a dilapidated family home?
Whether it is successful or not, the style must be high.
Immediately afterwards, Xiao Ming spent 50,000 yuan to purchase computers and other office supplies, and opened enterprise optical fiber. In the future, we will continue to provide additional funds to purchase spare servers and other equipment.
Then it's time for recruitment.
Yigou needs four employees, one network engineer, to solve server problems with Aliyun, maintain Yigou server on a daily basis, be responsible for the design and optimization of APP pages, and start to set up Yigou's own server. A financial officer is responsible for the financial management of Yigou, and the boss's clear distinction between public and private finances is the basic quality that an enterprise should have. A customer service who specializes in dealing with the problems encountered by users and regularly updating Weibo to maintain interaction with netizens.
Three employees, but also three partners, Xiao Ming is ready to take out 20% of the shares of Yigou as an option pool for the future development of Yigou, if the employees are dedicated, the future development of Yigou can be expected, then the employees can get a certain amount of Yigou shares.
Xiao Ming is also looking for employees to be familiar directly, rather than training newcomers.
Therefore, the salary of the network engineer is set at the P5 level (senior engineer), in addition to the social security and provident fund, the monthly salary is 12,000 yuan, the year-end dividend is to be determined, and the network engineering and corresponding majors are required to have a bachelor's degree or above, and more than five years of work experience.
The salary of the financial supervisor is set at P4 (junior commissioner), the monthly salary is 8,000 yuan, and the year-end dividend is to be determined, and it is required to have a bachelor's degree or above in finance-related majors and more than 3 years of work experience.
The salary of the customer commissioner is set at P3 (assistant), the monthly salary is 6,000 yuan, the year-end dividend is to be determined, the bachelor degree or above is required, the Mandarin is fluent and has a certain writing skills, and more than 1 year of customer experience.
Xiao Ming took a symbolic one dollar a month.
Jiangcheng City is a second-tier terminal city, and the salaries of civil servants are about 5,000, and a company can offer a monthly salary of 6,000 to 12,000 yuan, which is very attractive. Xiao Ming has calculated that if Yigou's customers continue to grow at the current rate, Yigou's monthly profit will be able to meet the expenses of office buildings and staff costs, ensuring that there will be no losses.
Not losing money is the key to the company's start.
In 18 years, Huaguo's economy was not very good, many companies, including the Internet, went bankrupt or laid off, OFO layoffs faced bankruptcy, and Tuba Rabbit evaporated 200 million in four months are all living examples.
Therefore, Xiao Ming's conditions are still very attractive.
Soon, Xiao Ming, who was sitting on the boss of the office building, received hundreds of resumes, which is enough to show the grim employment situation. However, in addition to the okay benefits, these job seekers are also attracted by the fame of Yigou, and there are 300,000 people using this software.
Most of the people who came to submit their resumes were two academic qualifications, and Xiao Ming also saw the resumes of graduate students from first-class schools such as Jiangcheng University and Hujiang University of Finance and Economics.
"Is it so exaggerated?" Xiao Ming still screened the resumes according to the ratio of 1:10, and then notified everyone by email to interview in three days.
"My name is Su Qiao, graduated from Qilu University of Technology, network engineering, and worked in a mobile game company for five years...... "The first interviewer graduated from the top ten science and engineering schools in Xia Guo and has rich work experience.
He was a little embarrassed to see that the founder of Yigou was so young. An uncle in his thirties interviews in front of an eighteen-year-old student.
Xiao Ming will not throw a piece of toilet paper on the ground to see if the other party picks it up, nor will he talk about ideals and opinions, these empty things, and come directly to hard goods.
Place the computer in front of the interviewee and let them deal with the crashed server within a limited time.
Su Qiao looked at the test questions with a bad face.
Xiao Ming smiled and asked, "No?"
Su Qiao still has the arrogance that a scholar should be, and said: "Now that the servers of Internet companies are outsourced, if there is a problem, find an outsourcing company, who has nothing to do and build their own servers." It's not a giant enterprise such as Arry and Penguin. ”
Xiao Ming nodded and said, "Okay, you go back and wait for the notice." ”
Su Qiao was anxious and said: "I have the soft high engineering certificate, CCNP and CCIE certificates, and my resume is written. ”
Xiao Ming kept smiling and said, "I know, please go back and wait patiently for the notice." ”
Su Qiao said with some dissatisfaction: "Do you know what CCNP and CCIE are?
"Next. ”
