Chapter 116: Chicken Soup for the Soul
The autumn breeze is drizzling and the rain is silent.
All the annoying mess has stopped for the time being, and all kinds of things are starting to get on track.
In particular, the 67.com website, which has suffered several attacks, has recovered tenaciously like spring grass with the boom of offline physical store business, with an average daily traffic of nearly 20,000+, nearly 30,000 registered users, and 10 to 1 real-name registered users.
Not to mention the whole country, as far as Lucheng City is concerned, in addition to Lucheng's portal website [Lucheng Windows] and [Lucheng Forum], [67.com] ranks third, and even [Lucheng Website Navigation] has been pushed down.
Not to mention the fledgling [Lucheng second-hand market], the average daily traffic is less than half of that of 67.com.
With the increase in the popularity of the website, there are actually travel agencies who come to the door to advertise.
Guan Qiu and Wu Xiangjun were both overjoyed and warmly received the visitors in the office of the head office.
Whether it is now or in the future, advertising will always be the foundation of the survival of Internet companies, and they will do everything possible to deceive clicks, and any advertisement that does not aim to deceive clicks is a hooligan.
It's really a day without advertising, and Internet companies are like a long night.
Wu Xiangjun, who was full of interest, negotiated with the visitors on behalf of 67.com on advertising fees.
Because he didn't know how much the advertising cost of a website of the size of 67.com was, Wu Xiangjun asked the other party to quote.
The manager of the travel agency with the big back said, "Three thousand." ”
Wu Xiangjun smashed his mouth and said, "Three thousand a month is too little." ”
The manager almost spurted out a mouthful of old blood, and said speechlessly: "It's not a month, it's a year." ”
Wu Xiangjun glared and asked, "What, three thousand yuan a year?"
The manager said, "yes, it's just a floating tofu cube anyway." We are in Lucheng window, and the website navigation is this price. ”
Wu Xiang looked at Guan Qiu, who shook his head secretly.
Wu Xiangjun blinked his big charming eyes twice, and the meaning was very clear, "No matter how small the mosquito's legs are, they are still meat, why don't you take them?"
Guan Qiu's eyebrows lifted, "Don't talk nonsense, hurry up!"
Just now, he suddenly thought that although the advertisement is good, 67.com is not good, it is a big commercial advertising company, and if it helps people advertise again, it is not putting the cart before the horse.
And he vaguely remembered that in his previous life, hao123 relied on the advantages of green, non-toxic, and no pop-ups, and quickly became the leader of the domestic navigation website.
Wu Xiangjun had no choice but to politely refuse the manager who came to the door.
But then Wu Xiangjun smiled and said: "Manager Chen, our company is doing human resources, if you have the needs of tour guides, such as English, Japanese, Korean, etc., we can help you recruit." ”
After Guan Qiu's edification, now Wu Xiangjun is also coming with his mouth open when he brags.
The big back manager paused for a moment, and then said happily: "Manager Wu didn't say that I forgot it." We are currently developing a new Malaysia-Thailand tour route, which requires five or six tour guides with strong English speaking skills. ”
"yes, that's great. In this way, we will help you post a job posting today, and if it goes well, we should be able to help you recruit soon. ”
"Then it's troublesome Manager Wu. By the way, how do you calculate the cost?"
Wu Xiangjun smiled and said: "We have a VIP service for enterprise companies, as long as you become our member, you don't need to hire staff in the future."
And VIP membership is charged on a quarterly basis, 800 yuan a quarter. We are currently engaged in on-site activities, and if we do it now, we can get a 5% discount. ”
The manager heard that it was quite cheap, and the most important thing was that the beautiful manager explained it for a long time, and if she didn't do it, she was a little unhappy, so she nodded and smiled and said: "Okay~ We did it!"
Wu Xiangjun motioned to Guan Qiu and said, "Xiao Guan, you take Manager Chen to apply for membership, and by the way, help them register a recruitment posting." Remember, hang the ad on the title page. ”
Guan Qiu bared his teeth and smiled, "I know Manager Wu." Manager Chen, please come with me......"
……
Sending Manager Chen to the staff below, Guan Qiu returned to the office and praised: "Sister Xiangjun, your eloquence is getting more and more slippery now~"
Wu Xiangjun ignored his sycophants and asked, "3,000 yuan is a little less, but can you talk about it again, why refuse?"
Guan Qiu explained, saying: "We just rely on advertisements to eat, if we get those floating window GIFs again, it's really disgusting; ”
Wu Xiangjun thought about it.
After a pause, Wu Xiangjun took out a statistical table from the drawer and said, "Last night, Qin Lan took out last month's revenue, you can take a look." ”
Guan Qiu took it and looked at it carefully.
In October, the total revenue of 67.com was 432,400 yuan, the expenses were 271,550 yuan, the net profit was 160,850 yuan, and the profit margin was 37.2%.
Seeing this data, Guan Qiu was still very surprised.
This is only the off-season, and there will be an explosion of profits in the spring and summer peak season, and many of those customer companies are currently preparing to go, once they wait until the scale is expanded, it is trivial to enter 100,000 a day.
"Well, that's good!"
Wu Xiangjun raised his head high, revealing a long white neck, and said proudly: "Then how are you going to reward me?"
"Uh...... Well, this one. Guan Qiu thought for a moment and said, "I have a project of hundreds of millions of dollars and am looking for someone to cooperate, take one with you?"
"What project?"
"Grand Canyon development. ”
"???" Wu Xiangjun first had a question mark on his face, and after reacting, he picked up the folder on the table and smashed it, "Die~"
Guan Qiu laughed, "This is a business with no profits! If you don't want to, I will "wash my hands and not dry it" at that time, don't regret it!"
"Today, sister, I sacrificed my life to accompany the gentleman, I want to see what you are capable of. Saying that, Wu Xiangjun rushed over.
"Forget it, I'd better go wash my hands!" After speaking, Guan Qiu immediately ran away.
"You little color embryo for me to stop......"
Seeing that 67 Tongcheng is gradually on track, Liu Hao can't take care of it.
The next day, Guan Qiu moved the system server to the main store and set up a separate office.
Then there's the issue of talent.
In addition to Yan Tianfeng, the technical director, two administrators need to be recruited;
In addition, page display requires 1-2 edits;
It also takes a few people to advertise this piece.
These jobs are not just a casual recruitment, you must have work experience.
The problem is that it's hard to find talent.
Last year, there were only 1.3 million college graduates in the country, and there are not many of these people scattered to all walks of life across the country.
There were also a few fresh college students who came to 67.com for interviews before, but when they arrived at the temple gate, they left without even asking about their salary.
Now the requirements can only be lowered, as long as you graduate from vocational high school and have relevant work experience.
Finally, at 5 o'clock in the afternoon, a young man in his 20s came to interview for a job as an administrator. The surname is Wu, and his name is Wu Tengyan.
He graduated from a computer vocational college, and has not found a corresponding job for more than half a year, and is currently doing quality inspection in an electronics factory. I rushed from the north of the city after seeing the recruitment notice of 67.com on the Internet.
After asking a few questions, and letting the other party operate on the spot, after confirming that the other party was competent for the job, Guan Qiu handed over the daily management of the website to the other party.
After everyone left in the evening, Guan Qiu stayed in the office alone, thinking about designing something different for the website.
In his previous life, Guan Qiu was engaged in hardware, assembling a computer, installing a camera, and making an enterprise interactor or something, but the software was much worse.
When you encounter a problem that can't be solved, you usually have to redo the system, and if it still doesn't work, then do it again.
After thinking about it for a while, Guan Qiu logged in to QQ and sent a message to his cheap cousin.
"Xiaofeng, help me make a blue box under the name of the website, make it into a text format, I want to add an inspirational sentence. ”
As soon as the message was sent, the other side replied, "Yes!"
In less than five minutes, Guan Qiu refreshed the background management, and there was a text editor under a few big characters in 67.com.
Guan Qiu thought as before, and typed a piece of chicken soup for the soul and uploaded it.
When you want to give up, think about what made you stick to this place in the first place?
Love as if you were never hurt, and work hard, and there will be miracles after the storm. 】
After saving, he opened the 67.com website and looked at it, Guan Qiu suddenly laughed, then turned off the computer, locked the door and went back to the dormitory.
……
Li Kang is 24 years old this year, he looks ordinary, he has no advantages, and he has no major shortcomings, and his grades have been floating in the middle and lower reaches of school when he was in school......
After graduating from two books, he came to work in Lucheng City, Sioux City, and changed three jobs before and after without any improvement, and continued his ordinary life.
He felt that he was like this in his life, and he would not have any great success in the future.
Today is the day after he resigned, and the train ticket back to his hometown has been purchased, and now he is passing the time in the Internet café in front of the train station, waiting for the time to embark on the journey home.
I walked around the Baidu post bar and accidentally saw a soft advertisement in 67.com.
Of course, Li Kang didn't know that it was an advertisement.
Looking at the vivid job search experience depicted by the job seeker above, he really felt the same way.
In Lucheng for a year, the biggest injury he suffered was being cheated of 800 yuan by an intermediary, which was his entire net worth.
He couldn't fight the intermediaries who lost his conscience, and he squatted on the side of the road and cried for two hours.
Life still goes on after you raise your head.
After sighing for a while, Li Kang typed 67.com in the search bar.
Click on the website, the refreshing and clean 67.com is divided into three sections: [Recruitment], [Flea Market], and [Local Service]. There is also a user comment area.
Just when Li Kang's mouse arrow had been placed on the recruitment, he inadvertently saw the chicken soup for the soul at the top.
Li Kang was stunned for a moment, staring at the text for a long time.
The Internet in 2003 was a restless era, opening a web page, full of overwhelming advertisements, or non-mainstream text plus QQ space code design, etc., it is rare to see a clean website.
And at this time, the inspirational chicken soup on the Internet is not unique, but it is also very rare, and occasionally I will copy it down as a personalized signature.
It's refreshing to see such a refreshing, thought-provoking piece of inspirational chicken soup on a clean website.
Li Kang muttered, "What made me insist on coming here......"
Thinking about it, Li Kang took out the return train ticket and looked at it for a while, and then tore it with a "click......
