Chapter 190: The Information Center is a Holy Place for Further Study
In many large enterprises and system industries with a high degree of informatization, the information center is a special technical department with the nature of application software technical support services, which is the best training ground for rookies in the workplace and a holy place for all-round employees, which is Chen Yanan's experience in four years of work.
At the beginning, why did she care so much about the "Tobacco Purchase, Transfer, Sales and Inventory Management System" that Qi Jingtao was responsible for, and tried every means to intervene in that new project?
She definitely did not want to seek technical dominance in that project, make a breakthrough in computer program development and design, and become the technical backbone of the information center. Because, that's not her career path.
If she just wants to have her own independently developed and designed application software system, successfully gain a foothold in the information center, and become a technical expert like Li Li, she began to exert her strength as early as when she first worked. At the beginning of the new business gap of the information center, it was not difficult to develop and design an independent stand-alone version of the application system software, and she also had the technical ability.
After all, she is a qualified graduate of Sichuan University majoring in computer software design, and she was already able to independently develop and design application software when she was in school. If you fight for the fame of the school from which she graduated, the university from which these colleagues graduated from the Information Center is not as famous as her alma mater.
Just because she is the child of a worker of Nanyan, and because she has resources that other colleagues can't have, she knows too well about her future career positioning in Nanyan. She did not show her professional talents in the purely technical department of the information center, and she did not plan to develop in the information center for a long time. Her own professional knowledge is only a stepping stone to work in Nanyan, not her career development direction.
Targeted to take over the use of software maintenance work of several business departments, in terms of program development and design ability willingly fell behind Li Li, Huang Yunshen, Zhang Hong, and even Liu Jianmin, a college student who worked in the information center with her.
If your program development and design ability is not as good as others, you don't have to fight hard in the front line of technical work like those colleagues. Undertake one after another use of software development, design, promotion tasks, like a program dog busy without staying time. Even Liu Zheng, director of the information center, also spends most of his energy on technology development.
After all, the information center is a department, not only technical work needs to be done, but also a lot of department management work needs to be completed. Director Liu Zheng focuses on technology development and research, and someone must take over the day-to-day management of the information center.
Liu Zheng looked around the entire information center, yes, Chen Yanan seemed to be a little powerless in terms of technology, and there was no application software development, design, promotion, and maintenance tasks. At this time, there were two or three kittens in the information center, and the figures of those technical backbones who usually ran could not be found, only she often stayed in the office, so let her assist her in managing the internal business of the department. With such a large information center, there must be someone on duty, right?
Chen Yanan took over the internal business of the information center as he wished, and while engaged in his own small application software maintenance business, he easily took care of the internal administrative logistics of the information center in an orderly manner, and became a special existence in the information center, often appearing on various occasions on behalf of the information center. Qi Jingtao had just worked, and when he came to report to the information center, he thought that Chen Yanan was the deputy director of the information center!
In Chen Yanan's career planning, working in the information center for a few years, using the special business platform of the information center to enrich himself, and then finding a suitable opportunity to leave the information center and go to other departments will definitely be able to achieve an unexpected high starting point.
This is not Chen Yanan's own speculation, there are precedents and traces to be found. Before the information center was formally established, most of the colleagues who worked in the computer management office, the predecessor of the information center, lacked the ability to develop and design computer programs. When the information center was established, most of them were transferred to other business departments.
Those colleagues are now the business backbone of their departments, and they are all-rounders. So far, three of the colleagues who have been transferred from the computer management room have been promoted to department heads.
Wang Qing, who was transferred to the rebaking factory, and Zhu Xuejun, who was transferred to the material company. Wei Xiaofen, who was transferred to the housing management department, has been promoted to a leadership position and enjoys 7 salary bonuses. The development momentum of the other few people is also good, if nothing else, continue to work hard, and wait for the old leaders to move their positions, and it is a matter of time before they are promoted.
If it weren't for Qi Jingtao's strong rise and the creation of such an online version of the "Tobacco Purchase, Transfer, Sales and Inventory Management System", he would have isolated himself from the business contact of the Economic Operation Department and lost the opportunity to show his business ability; if it weren't for Director Liu Zheng's business grouping, if it weren't for the sudden increase in the business workload of the hardware group, or if it weren't for the fact that she happened to be pregnant, it would not have been the best time to be transferred to any department.
There's a bunch of department heads over there who are getting a little older, and now is a good time to go. However...... I'm still young, so wait for the right time!
Looking at these energetic colleagues in the information center, Chen Yanan is genuinely worried about their future prospects. Huang Yunshen, Zhang Hong, Li Li, Qi Jingtao, these simple and optimistic technical nerds, under the leadership of Liu Zheng, an old technical nerd, are happily engaged in the work of the program dog that they think is satisfactory.
Don't they know that the profession of computer software development and design is also a profession that eats youth, especially for programmers who are engaged in software development and design in enterprises and institutions, and there is no future or development in software development and design. After all, a department like the information center is only a technical support and service department, not the main business of the enterprise.
Just look at Director Liu Zheng and know that there is a department leader like him in the entire Nanyan Group, who has worked hard for many years to fight on the front line of technology, constantly learning, improving and updating his professional knowledge and technology. It's so hard to be a middle-level leader, and there is no competitor with the same qualifications and abilities who are willing to take his place?
Director Liu Zheng, how long can he hold on? How much energy can he continue to study and research the new knowledge of enterprise information technology, and continue to lead the young people of the information center forward?
You must know that the development of IT technology is changing with each passing day, and the speed of updating new ideas, new knowledge, and new technologies far exceeds that of other fields. In order to keep up with the development and progress of IT technology and rush to the front line of technology, professional programmers in the information center of industrial enterprises must continue to learn, constantly update their professional knowledge, and constantly master new technical tools. After all, people's energy is limited, such a work and life, it's okay to do it for a few years, it's okay to do it for more than ten years, work until retirement, decades and years, how much passion can you burn?
