Chapter 38 Reporting

In July 1980, TVB, the most-watched television media in Hong Kong, reported on Lin Qi's interview and the development of a new start-up electronics company for several days. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

In the interview, I cut out a lot of political views that were too radical.

However, Lin Qi's oral statement was retained, and the profit of the newly start-up electronics company rose from more than one million yuan a few months ago to a net profit of 10 million yuan in June.

During the interview, Lin Qi proudly said that employees who participated in the research and development of "China Cube" can get project dividends, and according to the current sales performance of "China Cube", each R&D personnel can get hundreds of thousands of dividends a month on average...... The first batch of employees who joined the company last year are expected to become millionaires this year, and Lin Qi's next goal is to let employees get tens of millions of dividends!

After this report came out, the whole of Hong Kong was shaken.

"The most generous boss, rewarding employees with hundreds of thousands of dollars a month. ”

"The dark horse of Hong Kong's electronics industry, the video game king Lin Qi, earns tens of millions a month, and rewards ordinary R&D personnel with hundreds of thousands of dollars per month. ”

"The most enviable profession for job seekers in Hong Kong - product R&D personnel for start-up electronics companies. ”

……

For a long time, Hong Kong's low-level people who want to strive to get rich either hope to become entertainment stars, as well as well-known writers such as Jin Yong, Liang Yusheng, Ni Kuang, or cartoonists such as Huang Yulang.

As long as it is red, it will definitely be developed. However, this road will be a success, and there are very few successful people, and most people will not even have enough to eat after taking these roads.

Of course, the most common opportunity to make a fortune in Hong Kong is to do business, but there are very few successful business successes. Most people dream of doing a prosperous business, but they lose their old capital, and instead fall into an even more miserable situation.

Even if you want to make a career in school, you usually study business administration, law, and medicine. Reading out these majors, although they do not expect to be rich and expensive, there are quite a few middle and upper class people who can afford to buy villas with an annual income of hundreds of thousands.

However, there are very few science and engineering students in Hong Kong who rely on technology to get ahead quickly. Because, the people who make a fortune here rely on sweatshops, import second-hand equipment from overseas, and rely on Hong Kong's cheap labor to make money, who would take a huge risk to develop new products with unknown prospects? Moreover, even if the boss who attaches importance to research and development generally promotes the employees who have made contributions, and rewards tens of thousands of yuan at will, which is considered very generous.

Reward hundreds of thousands of technical personnel, and not just one person, but many people involved in research and development, all have a share!

Therefore, many factory owners in Hong Kong secretly scolded: "Where did Lin Qi come out of stupidity?"

This kind of generosity has also exceeded the imagination of Hong Kong citizens......

Ordinary technical men, with their ability to eat, can earn a suite a month, this is definitely a way to get ahead! They never thought that those science and engineering otaku who are half stupid geese will still have a bright future in Hong Kong?!

"I don't know if the new venture electronics is still recruiting?"

"I really want to join New Venture Electronics!"

"I don't know if that Boss Lin is really so generous!"

With the continuous reporting of the news, the new venture electronics company has gradually become a job search mecca for Hong Kong science and technology students, and if the new venture electronics publishes a job advertisement, the phone may be continuously bombed to paralyze.

……

In the news of Xinchuang Electronics, Lin Qi struck while the iron was hot, spending 300,000 yuan to place recruitment advertisements in major media in Hong Kong.

As a result, the whole of Hong Kong fell into a frenzy...... In just one week, the startup received more than 30,000 cover letters, which is more than the number of applicants for the University of Hong Kong entrance examination every year!

The new start-up electronics company was originally preparing to hire about 200 people. Among them, 150 are technical positions, 20 are administrative positions, and the rest are business and service personnel.

There are too many applicants...... So, the new startup simply conducts a massive round of written exams.

In order to test the candidates' real knowledge, the written test has 200 subject questions, mainly subjective multiple-choice questions and noun fill-in-the-blanks. Each question has a clear answer and there is no ambiguity.

The answer time is 3 hours, the total score is 200 points, and if you can exceed 120 points, you will be eligible to enter the next round.

After hearing that the written test was going to be held, most of the applicants were discouraged, so the number of applicants who continued to fill out the form shrank to more than 5,000.

……

On the morning of July 10, Hong Kong's major schools had already closed for summer vacation.

The new startup rented classrooms in several primary and secondary schools for these candidates to take written exams. This round of written exams can't help but make many candidates complain about what test-taking education is.

But Gao Tian, the author of the exam questions, disagreed.

Examination-oriented education, which is essentially engineer education, is best suited for training engineers in science and engineering. Many first-class engineers and scientists in large companies are outstanding candidates for exam-oriented education.

Those who complain that exam-oriented education is very hard and can't learn to do those difficult problems no matter how hard they work are not suitable for engineers and scientists.

In any era, exams can be regarded as the fairest and most respectable way to compete.

Lin Qi, Gao Tian and others never denied that the exam would bury a very small number of geniuses who were biased, and they couldn't do book knowledge, but they had other talents. But...... The company recruits, and it doesn't have the patience to discover everyone's talent that hasn't been tapped.

Screening with test questions excludes people who have no foundation at all to the greatest extent, avoiding wasting the company's time and resources, as well as the time and future of those candidates.

After 5,000 people completed the exam, they left their contact information. In the days that followed, the results were in, and only about 600 people had reached the passing mark.

Most of those who have reached the passing line are basically undergraduate and junior college degrees, and students with relatively good grades in undergraduate and junior college are considered to be students, rather than waste who will only eat, drink and have fun during the entire study period.

After all, in the 80s, there were not as many higher cinemas in Hong Kong as there were later, and the number of students enrolled was much smaller than it was decades later.

At the same time, tuition fees are expensive, and students from ordinary families, if they can't get scholarships, it is difficult to afford to study, and they must be top students to go to university, otherwise, they can't afford to study, and they will waste their family's financial resources and resources.

It doesn't matter if the children of rich families come from good backgrounds, they are just gilded in school, not only can they not get scholarships, but they also need to pay a lot of sponsorship to the school.

Not the children of rich families are necessarily waste, but the gold content may not be comparable to that of poor children.

The vast majority of job seekers should not be the children of wealthy families, if there is money in the family, who will look up to the position of a new start-up?

"617 people passed?" Lin Qi looked at the list and said, "Among them, 425 people have a bachelor's degree or above?"
