Chapter 454: Crisis of Trust (End)

The seething privacy leak incident turned into a hacker attack, and the attacks on the friend network in various media disappeared without a trace in a matter of days. TV networks, including ABC, C, and Fox, have also characterized this incident as a hacker attack, and have complained about the various grievances suffered by Friends Network before. However, the hackers found by Time and Palantir have not been announced for the time being, so why should they let things ferment for a few more days, so that the friends network can accumulate some popularity and dissipate the impact of some negative news.

Many people thought that the American social network market would be greatly affected, and it turned out that after a long period of depression, Facebook's development speed overseas, especially in Europe, has greatly accelerated, although it is not exaggerated to exceed that of friends, but it has also put a lot of pressure on them. This time Facebook's accident is more serious than that of Friends, even if someone helps relieve the pressure, but the suppression of Friends.com is also facing a retaliatory backlash. So much so that in many places in the United States, the reputation of the friend network suddenly surpassed Facebook.

"Mr. Zhou, what are we going to do with Facebook?"

"What else can be done, to restore our reputation, in two weeks, take the initiative to help them break the siege, and unanimously crack down on the development of hackers and other evil forces in the online world" Zhou Shi

"Are we going to help them?" said Lucky

"To help them is to help yourself, you can grasp the timing yourself or discuss it with Shirley Sandberg!" Zhou Shi must communicate well with Lu Qi in this kind of major matter.

"Okay! it's just too cheap for them!"

"Different backgrounds, different fates, this is what we must overcome!" Zhou Shi is helpless about this, just like it is difficult for foreign Internet companies to develop in China, domestic Internet companies will always encounter various problems when entering the markets of other countries. The friend network is not bad, and it has grown rapidly before others have reacted. And there was a financial crisis that has rarely happened in recent decades, so that everyone does not have so much time to meddle.

Zhou Shi also returned to Yelp, although he has not managed the company much, but his understanding of management is still getting deeper and deeper, and through the comparative analysis of different people from all walks of life, he also has his own views on human nature. Knowing people and judging people does not only rely on the memories of previous lives, more talents and elites who did not know before were promoted by him. Whether it's a company or a social organization, no matter what their mission is, in the final analysis, everything is about the management of people. Choosing and employing good people is the key to all problems. One Jack Welch could make General Motors rise, and one Stephen Elop could kill Nokia, the giant of the mobile phone industry. Lenovo's Yang Yuanqing is obviously just a general, but he was appointed as a commander, making a national brand gradually become a joke. It can be seen that there are too many examples in history of things made by people and things wasted because of people. But Zhou Shi did not devote most of his energy to the study of people, after all, as an individual, people have too many complexities, and everyone is different. He prefers to establish a relatively well-established set of rules and regulations, and then look for people who find a certain trait. It's like the imperial examination, let the world's talents compete under the rules, and then discover the elites who stand out. To put it simply, Soma is supplemented, and horse racing is the mainstay.

Yelp's platform has been set up, and there are four levels of management, and Shirley Sandberg has done process management, achieving the desired results through process control. What Zhou Shi has to do is to "borrow the fake to cultivate the truth" and improve the development of talents and organizations. To do this is difficult, first of all, you have to make the other person believe in you, and secondly, you have to solve the other person's life problems. How can a person who has a bad life have more yearning for the future? How much will he identify with enterprises? Of course, this aspect of the problem is much better in the United States than in China, and there are many problems of social security, more and less American-style, and the problems of whether China has or does not have it, and the two are not in the same dimension.

Zhou Shi began to chat with the middle and senior management of Yelp one by one, and clearly conveyed his ideas to everyone. Yelp now has three major divisions, reviews, group buying and homestays. Jeremy Stupleman is still in charge of the comments, but now he is connected with the friend network, and he can display his comments through the real-name social network, and he also has a similar function on Facebook, but because it is not a strategic partnership, the depth and breadth of the cooperation are somewhat different.

Group buying is directly responsible for Shirley, and its categories are also much richer, from the very beginning of catering, to all aspects of offline life, such as performance tickets, beauty, fitness, etc. B&Bs are difficult to expand, expensive and the hosts themselves have limited photo skills, so Yelp has sent a number of professional part-time videographers to help them with photo retouching and home beauty advice. Although it has expanded to more than a dozen cities in the United States, there are not many actual users. In order to deal with possible criminals, friends and social networks such as Facebook are also introduced.

Shen Haoyu resigned from the friend network (whether it was crisis management or the maintenance of corporate image, Shen Haoyu did not do a good job, and the responsibility is certain), Zhou Shi gave him a month off, and officially joined Yelp in January 2010. Although the friend network has not officially released the information, Shirley has now taken over Shen Haoyu's work, in fact, her rights are still expanding, after all, Lu Qi is also responsible.

Shirley Sandberg's departure has made Zhou Shi many times busy, not to get acquainted with the princes from all walks of life, but also to arrange future work, don't think about the luxurious annual meeting, Zhou Shi will definitely not do this, and now is not the time to celebrate.

With four secretaries in Yelp, one from each of the three departments, one from the headquarters, and Chen Wen as the manager, Zhou Shi is determined to put aside other aspects of work and concentrate on running Yelp. On December 1, Wang Xin sent an email to Zhou Shi, willing to become the co-CEO of Dianping. For this reason, Zhou Shi arranged for Zhang Tao to expand the B&B or short-term rental division, although it seems fair on the surface, in fact, the B&B is really hard to say in a market environment like Huaxia, Zhou Shi thinks that the probability of hitting the street is quite large. This is closely related to the openness of society, and the young people born in the 70s and 80s who have a house and a car are a minority after all. There are still very few people who are willing to accept the rental of their parents' house, and how to carry out localized adaptive development, or simply give up this project, is a very critical choice, which tests Zhang Tao's wisdom very much. Still, fair thing, hehe!

"What competitors do we have in the homestay market?" Zhou Shi was busy for nearly 10 days, and finally couldn't stand the endless reports and wanted to give up the work in his hands.

"There's a company called Airbnb (yelp or Yelp)"

"Acquire it and let their founders come and work!" Zhou Shi waved his hand and set the future leader of the B&B business, that is, Brian Chesky, the founder of Airbnb.
