Chapter 294: The Extinction Plan
Zhang Siyuan was sitting in the boss's chair thinking about the QQ R&D department, when a knock on the office door interrupted his thinking.
After adjusting his sitting posture, Zhang Siyuan shouted outside the door: "Come in." β
Xu Zelei pushed open the office door and walked in, and reported to Zhang Siyuan after coming in: "I have seriously warned the employees of the QQ R&D department, and in addition, I have also invited two technicians from Xishanju to help make chess and mahjong pictures and sound effects." β
Looking at Xu Zelei's serious appearance in front of him, Zhang Siyuan waved his hand: "Brother Zelei, don't be so serious." I just spoke in a bad tone, don't take it to heart. β
"It's my fault, I've been negligent in my management. And, mainly because of me, if I could have grasped a little bit, the current situation would not have arisen, and I am mainly responsible for this matter. Xu Zelei shook his head.
Zhang Siyuan said with a wry smile: "As for going online like this, I'll just say it." β
Zhang Siyuan didn't expect that he would be a little dissatisfied, and Xu Zelei was so serious. Zhang Siyuan didn't know what to say now, and he felt that it was not right to say anything.
Xu Zelei said solemnly: "Because of my mismanagement, I feel that I should be punished." β
"It's not that serious, Brother Zelei. Really, just a minor issue. Zhang Siyuan hurriedly said with relief.
Who knew that Xu Zelei had been biting his bite and not letting go, and Zhang Siyuan had to be punished greatly. Zhang Siyuan can't go up or down, it's very embarrassing. In the end, Zhang Siyuan said to Xu Zelei helplessly: "Then report internally and deduct one month's salary, okay? Don't you agree, this matter is decided like this, I have the final say!"
Seeing Zhang Siyuan's resolute attitude, Xu Zelei did not dwell on this issue anymore, but said: "Now in the domestic market, except for QQ and YY, there is almost no market for other instant messaging software. I think we should start the extinguishing plan as soon as possible, otherwise the more we try to eliminate Tencent in the future, the more difficult it will be. As for how to do it, I'm sure you already have a plan in mind. β
Hearing Xu Zelei's words, Zhang Siyuan nodded. When he first saw the comparison of YY and QQ's data, he began to brew this idea in his heart. If you don't dry up Tencent and want to eliminate Tencent in the future, it will be super difficult. Even if Tencent is brought down, the price to pay will definitely be high.
Xu Zelei didn't tighten his face anymore at this time, and asked Zhang Siyuan: "What do you think now, let's talk about it first." β
"To be honest, I had a naΓ―ve idea of buying Tencent directly, but that wasn't very realistic. If there is no one behind Tencent to support it, it is still no problem to buy Tencent with our current financial resources. It's a pity that according to the information I have gotten, the people behind Tencent are not ordinary people. This also makes me dispel normal commercial mergers and acquisitions, in addition to normal commercial mergers and acquisitions, then there is only malicious suppression. Of course, to put it nicely, it is normal competition, and the winner is king. β
Xu Zelei asked: "QQ games will be the first step?"
"Yes, QQ Games will be the first step. Next, I will write the plan and hand it over to you when the time comes, you will do it first according to the plan, and we will decide what to do next according to the situation. β
Saying that, Zhang Siyuan opened QQ and asked Xu Zelei: "Which version of QQ has been developed now?"
"Two versions higher than the current version. β
"The QQ membership module has been added, right?"
Xu Zelei asked a little worriedly: "It's added, is it just okay like that?"
"No problem, you have to believe in the advantages of our products. Tencent is only about those things so far, and we are already a half-percent leisure and entertainment social platform, which is a big difference. And, in the next step, we're going to open up the gap with them and let them keep catching up behind us until we can't catch up anymore. β
"Okay, then I'll go back first. There was a fire today, and they should be working well for a while. Don't worry, there won't be any more problems with the QQ R&D department, and I will be optimistic about them. β
"Don't push too hard, there is still a normal combination of work and rest. β
After Xu Zelei left, Zhang Siyuan made a phone call to Zhang Junkui and asked Zhang Junkui to come to his office. After a while, Zhang Junkui came to Zhang Siyuan's office.
Seeing Zhang Junkui walk into the office, Zhang Siyuan asked with a smile: "Mr. Zhang, how is it, is it okay recently?"
"Since I don't care about the company's chores, it's been very easy. Although there are so many things to do every day, it is really easy to deal with. Mr. Zhang, what instructions do you have for me?" Zhang Junkui replied with a smile.
After Gao Changjiang came to the company to take over the previous work of Dai Wanglong, he was completely liberated. Don't deal with all the other partners, advertisers and networks, just the work of marketing and human resources, not to mention how comfortable it is.
Zhang Siyuan didn't care about Zhang Junkui's appearance, and suddenly asked very seriously: "Do you have management of the personnel work now?"
"Basically let it go, it's all Qin Siyu's girl in charge. What's wrong, what's the problem?"
Zhang Siyuan waved his hand: "There's no problem, just ask." The company will make a big move next, and I'll explain it to you. β
Hearing Zhang Siyuan say business, Zhang Junkui also became serious. Zhang Siyuan rarely takes it so seriously, and he also said that the company has made big moves. That shows that this action is estimated to be really big, if you don't listen clearly, it will be bad if you cause losses to the company because of your own reasons.
Seeing that Zhang Junkui was serious, Zhang Siyuan immediately said: "I just discussed with Mr. Xu, and in view of the current development momentum of YY, we decided to start sniping at Tencent. The technical department is mainly responsible for it, and of course the cooperation of other departments is indispensable. What I'm going to talk about next is what the Propaganda Department and the Personnel Department need to do. β
"The personnel work has not stopped, although Jiaotong University has contributed a group of employees to us, but it is still not enough. As for the next goal of personnel work, I will give you a specific direction, which is domestic Internet enterprises. That's right, it's poaching. The main target is Tencent, followed by NetEase. It may not be easy to do the work in the early stage, but when the action on the technical side begins, I believe that the work on the human resources side will be much easier. β
The employees of an enterprise are the most important wealth. Especially for Internet technology enterprises, technical personnel are always the most precious. Maybe when Tencent is strong, many employees will not be willing to change jobs or will have to spend a lot of money to change jobs. But once Tencent has problems, the loyalty of employees needs to be tested.
Most people put their interests first, and not everyone will want to stay in one company for the rest of their lives. Maybe it has nothing to do with loyalty, many times, life is also an aspect. Work is to make money, and when there are better job opportunities and better benefits in front of them, 90% of people will not refuse.
What Zhang Siyuan has to do is to drain their cornerstone once they show fatigue at Tencent. Maybe some high-rise bridges are difficult, but some ordinary technicians are still relatively relaxed. Maybe Times Technology can't kill Tencent all at once, but as long as Tencent shows a flaw, then Zhang Siyuan will bite them hard.
"Publicity-wise, you know. Unleash all the forces we can to build momentum for what's next in your company's plans. Of course, I will let you know in advance when the details are there. The marketing department should also act at the same time, these are the departments you are responsible for, and I hope that after a while, you will find a meeting with the heads of several departments, and give a rough explanation. β
"I'll give them an account, and I'll keep an eye on it. This time are you going to kill Tencent all at once?" asked Zhang Junkui with some uncertainty towards Zhang Siyuan.
Zhang Siyuan shook his head: "It's unrealistic all at once, but it's still okay to be disabled all at once." When it is disabled, it will be tantamount to a catastrophe for Tencent. We have the best technical team, the best product planning, if we can't trample Tencent under our feet, then why should we go to the world. When Tencent is trampled underfoot, it is the time for us to go global. β
After chatting about the matter, Zhang Siyuan and Zhang Junkui chatted about other things in the company, and Zhang Junkui left Zhang Siyuan's office to arrange what Zhang Siyuan had just told him. Zhang Siyuan stood by the window, looking at the Oriental Pearl in the distance.
Yangcheng, Tencent headquarters, Ma Tenghua office.
Ma Tenghua, who was sitting in front of the computer, said proudly to Zhang Dongzhi: "Dongzhi, how is it." I'm right, that's what Times Technology is all about. We just have to work hard, and we won't have any problem catching up with them at all. You see, now YY is about to catch up with the number of users of QQ, and QQ chess is not as good as our YY chess. β
After pulling a few investments, coupled with the fee model that has been realized by the agent Stone Age and YY, Tencent has turned from the original loss to a profit. Coupled with Ma Tenghua's extraordinary imagination, YY quickly caught up with QQ. Of course, this is also because QQ has not been updated to a new version for a while.
Zhang Dongzhi looked at the proud Ma Tenghua, and couldn't help but splash cold water and said: "Mr. Ma, don't you think something is wrong? The number of people in the QQ R&D team of Times Technology is only a lot more than ours, and the technology is similar." We've all updated a few times and they haven't updated and I always feel that something is wrong. There are always some bad feelings during this time, I think we should prepare early, otherwise we will not have time to deal with the time when the technology of the times will make a move. β
"Dongzhi, what are you talking about? There is no doubt that Tencent will surpass the technology of the times. The technology of the times has not changed now, which means that the hairy boy has exhausted his donkey skills, how can you grow up to destroy your own prestige. Ma Tenghua, who had been carried away by the joy of YY catching up with QQ, reprimanded Zhang Dongzhi with some displeasure.
Seeing what Zhang Dongzhi wanted to say, Ma Tenghua said: "Okay, you go out first, I also have an investor here to meet in the afternoon." β
