Snapdragon headquarters is located on the top floor of Yinhua Building, this office building is a state-owned enterprise invested and built in 1994, 12 floors below for self-use, 12 floors for rent, because of the geographical location, advanced supporting facilities, the rent is relatively high, the top floor was vacant for most of the year and no one cared, until May this year, under the instruction of Du Qiu, was rented by Gao Mingda. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Designed by an architectural design firm in the United States, Yinhua Building is one of the few office buildings in Cloud City that uses glass curtain walls in a large area, which is more fashionable than those old-school buildings, and is very in line with the image of Snapdragon high-tech enterprises.

"I'm going! Snapdragon actually built a special entertainment room, and when you are tired from work, you can go there to watch VCDs and play arcades, I really envy them. ”

"Fruits and drinks are free, so you can eat as much as you want?"

"This office chair is really nice, more comfortable than the chair in first class on an airplane. ”

Zhang Xuanlong mixed in the middle of a group of young netizens, and after visiting the office in a fancy way, he said to Qiu Baijun and Lei Jun: "Such a good office environment, no software company in China can compare, with the current situation of Kingsoft, I am afraid it is difficult to compete with Snapdragon." ”

Lei Jun does not have shares of Jinshan, it is inconvenient to express his opinions, but he has a lot of feelings in his heart, Jinshan Jingcheng Company lives in a dilapidated and crowded small red building, as the general manager, but he does not even have a separate office, can only do it himself, with glass plates to make a small partition, and the comfortable and relaxed working environment in front of him is very different.

Even if you are so willing to spend money on daily office supplies, then the wages and benefits that employees get will definitely be better......

If such a company comes to Jinshan to poach, how can it be stopped?

Qiu Baijun took out the cigarette case and wanted to smoke, but saw a Snapdragon employee in a black T-shirt waving at him, so he put the cigarette case away again, frowned and said: "Their office software is not compatible with our WPS, if you sell Kingsoft to Snapdragon, the WPS brand will be gone in the future, I am a little reluctant." ”

"I am also reluctant, but the situation is stronger than people, I am now in charge of the overseas business of the Founder Group, and I have to go abroad often, so I can't spare myself to help you run Jinshan, if you don't sell it now, it won't be long before Snapdragon hollows out the entire company." Zhang Xuanlong sighed and said to Lei Jun, "What do you think?"

"In fact, there is nothing rich, there are many companies that are richer than Jinshan, the trouble is that Du Qiu understands technology, and knows more than us, and knows how to make products. ”

"yes, that's the real big problem. ”

Qiu Baijun shook his head and was silent for a moment before saying: "Snapdragon has several employees who have jumped from Jinshan, why don't you find one to show us how Snapdragon's office software is doing." ”

"I didn't see them just now, I guess they were taken away, and I'm not in the company today...... Hey, that's Yu Xingyu, he's here. ”

Because Du Qiu had already planned to acquire Jinshan, in order to maintain a good relationship, he had always asked Qin Mu to pay attention to the dynamics of Jinshan, but he never took the initiative to poach their people, and only accepted a few employees who jumped from Jinshan, Yu Xingyu was one of them, he left after the contract expired, so he was not ashamed of the mentality of the former owner, and Lei Jun and others did not have a prejudice against him as a "traitor", so the atmosphere was more harmonious after the meeting.

"This is our company's COO Yang Fan, this is Mr. Zhang and Mr. Qiu of Jinshan, and this is Manager Lei of Jinshan Jingcheng Branch. ”

"Hello, hello, hello. ”

After Yang Fan shook hands with the three of them, he didn't even say much polite words, and proposed straight to the point: "Manager Qin of the office software R&D department wants to take this rare opportunity to exchange some technical experience with Jinshan, I don't know if the three of them are willing to appreciate their faces?"

Zhang Xuanlong and Qiu Baijun glanced at each other, and then said with a smile: "We can't ask for it." ”

"That's great, please here, Manager Qin has prepared the relevant equipment and materials. ”

Under the leadership of Yang Fan, the three of them walked along the corridor towards the east side, and when they passed the conference room, they saw through the glass door that it was full of people, each holding a manuscript, some burying their heads in perusal, and some communicating softly, looking at the scene a bit like the students who were cramming before the college entrance examination, but these students were all a little older, and the youngest was twenty-five or sixteen years old.

Zhang Xuanlong went to Zhongguancun in 1984 to invest in business, known for his shrewdness and boldness, long-sleeved dancing, and a very wide social circle.

"Mr. Du wrote two papers on distributed systems a while ago, which aroused the interest of many experts after they were posted on the Internet, so he came to our company to hold a seminar, which is purely academic and has nothing to do with office software. ”

Yang Fan said very plainly, but the three listeners invariably showed a surprised expression, you must know that although computer programming is not simple, but it is not too difficult, as long as you work hard enough, middle school students can also write good software, distributed systems are different, that is the 90s very cutting-edge high-tech, the basic requirements are very high, the university will not be exposed to at least until the master's or doctoral level, ordinary people are difficult to learn by themselves.

Let the professor of Jingcheng University come to Cloud City to hold a seminar in person, which shows that the things that Du Qiu has studied are very valuable, and it is by no means a fake thing to sensationalize, Lei Jun became curious and asked, "Can we take a look at the paper?"

"Absolutely. ”

Yang Fan motioned for Yu Xingyu to get a copy of the paper, and then pointed to the people in the conference room and introduced: "Mr. Du's two papers are more esoteric, and it is difficult for people who are not specialized in distributed systems to read, so the experts participating in this seminar must be at least doctors, otherwise they may not understand." ”

When they had a deep conversation in the hotel last night, Du Qiu had already demonstrated his superior programming ability, but he didn't expect that he also took care of academic research and came up with advanced technology that even doctors from famous universities might not understand.

Yu Xingyu quickly took three points of the copied paper, Zhang Xuanlong didn't understand technology, he didn't even look at it, he just held it in his hand politely, and after asking Baijun and Lei Jun to open it and glance at it a few times, they also closed it, because there were more than a dozen unfamiliar English terms on the first page, and they couldn't understand it at all, and their morale was greatly hit, and they felt that the gap with Snapdragon was too big.

"I'll read the paper when I have time later, so Mr. Yang should take us to meet Manager Qin first. ”

"Okay, this way, please. ”

Yang Fan led the three of them to an office in the corridor to sit inside, Zhang Xuanlong saw a nameplate with Du Qiu's name on the door, so he asked, "Du Qiu is not here, is it appropriate for us to use his office?"

Mr. Du usually works with employees, and this is his lounge, which is relatively spacious, so it is often used as a small conference room, and anyone can use it. ”

After the door opened, the three of them once again showed surprised expressions, because the furnishings inside were too unexpected for them, there were no desks, no computers, only a few sofas and a coffee table, except for the side of the window, the remaining three walls were inlaid with wooden bookshelves, and the bookshelves were full of books, which looked like a small library at first glance.

Qin Mu was debugging the laptop in front of the coffee table with two of his subordinates, and when he saw the three of them coming in, he hurriedly got up to say hello, he and Lei Jun met a few months ago, and they both looked at each other well, and they became familiar with each other in a few words, Yang Fan had other important matters, and left after a few polite words when he saw this.

When Qin Mu went to pour tea, Zhang Xuanlong walked to a bookshelf on the left, and saw that all the books on it were labeled as "must read" on the spine, so he picked up a thick English book, opened it and looked at it, and found that the paper was a little yellow and wrinkled, obviously read many times, and there were many red pen marks on the page, so he turned around and asked, "Have you read these books?"

Qin Mu pointed to a small bookshelf next to the door and said, "Mr. Du hasn't read the books on that shelf yet, and he has read the rest." ”

The bookshelf was very small, only about 10 books were placed, and the rest of the books on the shelves added up to at least hundreds, Zhang Xuanlong was stunned, and after looking around, he found that in addition to computer books, there were novels, history, calligraphy, cars, music and other books on the shelves, and he couldn't help but admire Du Qiu greatly, and he was more determined to sell Jinshan to Snapdragon.

Gifted and tireless in learning, such a person will achieve great things, and it is better to turn enemies into friends than to be crushed by him......

Lei Jun also walked to a bookshelf, saw that the books on it were labeled as "waste utilization", picked up a book and looked at it, and found that it was a computer textbook published by a university in China, the content was full of errors and omissions, and it was unsightly, so he couldn't help but smile and said: "Qin Mu, what's the use of keeping this kind of book?"

Mr. Du plans to write a set of introductory computer textbooks for beginners, which are negative examples for reference to avoid similar mistakes. ”

"You Du always have a lot of leisure. Qiu Baijun looked around the room and asked, "Does he have so much time?"

"Mr. Du is very efficient in reading books and doing things, like the book "Design Patterns", he studied it thoroughly in a few hours, and I haven't figured it out for months. ”

"Design Pattern" is a computer classic published in October 1994, the concept in it is very fresh in the 90s, and there is no Chinese version, it is really not good for Qin Mu and these domestic indigenous programmers, but it is not new for Du Qiu, so use it to act, strengthen his image of a genius with a high IQ, and lay a cover for the future "invention" of various awesome technologies.

The effect of acting was good, and the Jinshan trio was stunned, and in the following exchanges, Qin Mu only demonstrated some of the functions of the office software, which made Qiu Baijun and Lei Jun feel that once this software was launched, Jinshan would have no power to fight back.
