Chapter 149: Recruiting Talent
At 8 p.m., Xu Qing and a group of computer otaku came to the Caesars Club in the Bay Area.
Just by listening to the name, you know that this club is not simple, Caesar's Club is named after Julius Caesar of the Roman Empire.
Of course, not all Caesars are awesome, and some low-end hotels, clubs and other places will also be called Caesars.
"Wow! this decoration is too luxurious!" the decoration of Caesar's Club stunned West.
"It's quite luxurious, I heard that the Caesars Club spent more than $50 million on decoration alone. Xu Qing said casually.
Xu Qing has been to Caesar's Club several times, but he came before he was reborn, and he never came after he was reborn.
"Caesars Club is so rich!" West sighed again.
"Okay, don't sigh, there are a lot of beautiful women waiting for you. Xu Qing pushed West.
The manager of Caesar's Club led the way in front, and Xu Qing and a group of people came to a room on the second floor.
The room is large and the decoration is more luxurious than the hall on the first floor.
After everyone entered the room for a while, a group of beautiful women entered the room, and Xu Qing found that the eyes of several guys lit up.
Also, although these guys are all computer otakus, they are not innocent people, and they don't have fun like the fraternities, and it's okay to play occasionally.
It is naturally very comfortable to have a beautiful woman to drink with you, and some guys even take action.
Xu Qing also has a beautiful woman by her side, and she obviously knows Xu Qing, and her flattering look makes Xu Qing goosebumps.
Caesar's Club is a high-class club, and the quality of the beauties is very good, and they are better than many Hollywood actresses just by their appearance.
But Xu Qing is not interested in these women, and she doesn't know how many hands she has passed.
At tonight's party, Xu Qing didn't talk about the website, but just let everyone have fun.
So most of the people spent the night at Caesar's Club tonight, while Xu Qing went back to the dormitory.
At 3 p.m. the next day, Xu Qing came to Stanford again, in a small classroom in the computer science department of Stanford.
The people who went to Caesar's Club last night, except for Xu Qing, had a total of 22 people, and now they all came to the small classroom, and no one was absent.
"You should be very clear to the purpose of my invitation here, you are all excellent talents, although some of you will not graduate until a year, two years, or even three years.
But there is no doubt that your computer skills are better than those of many computer companies out there, so I would like to ask you to help me build 3 websites. ”
Xu Qing praised these people a lot, these otaku are still in the ivory tower, they have not been trained in the social melting pot, and when they heard Xu Qing's praise, they immediately smiled.
Look at how many people can get this kind of treatment for the billionaires who personally accompany them to have fun.
Xu Qing probably guessed what these guys were thinking, and could only say in his heart that it was so easy to deceive, my classmates.
"This is my request for 3 websites, you guys take a look first, if you have any questions, just ask. Xu Qing sent a piece of information to these guys.
Two minutes later, a man with glasses first asked Xu Qing: "Xu, I have a question about the community website. ”
"What's the doubt?"
"This document says that community sites are sites where people can get together and discuss various things, but there are very few people who use the Internet these days.
If there is not much discussion on the community site, then the site will be less and less discussed, because people are collective, and it will eventually become a vicious circle. ”
Hey, yes, this guy is not only a programmer who knows how to type code, but also thinks about problems in the market.
Xu Qing didn't answer this guy's question for the first time, and asked everyone first, "Who else has the same question as him?"
Xu Qing wanted to know how many of these guys were not only highly skilled, but also market-minded, and such people could later work as senior managers at Xu Qing's Internet company.
With the addition of that guy just now, a total of 6 people raised their hands.
"It seems that many people have this question, so I will explain, what this classmate said just now is very reasonable, there are millions of talents around the world who are online, and most of them are not often online.
Most of the people who go online are elite, and most of the time these people spend online is looking at the news, shopping, stocks, etc.
As you can expect, the elite have very little time to go to the community website, because their time is relatively precious, so why should I build a community website now?
Last time I gave a speech, I made it very clear that this year the Internet will usher in a big explosion, and the number of people who will go online will surge, and more and more ordinary people will go online.
The target group of community websites is these ordinary people, and we can now build community websites to get ahead of other Internet companies. ”
Xu Qing didn't explain in detail, that is, the Internet will explode this year, and as soon as he finished speaking, Xu Qing saw some people's expressions that didn't quite believe it.
It's okay, I don't believe it now, when the Internet explodes, they will be surprised by Xu Qing's judgment of the Internet, so as to convince Xu Qing.
Xu Qing doesn't know much about computer technology, and if he wants others to work for him, he relies on two things, one is money, and the other is his understanding of the Internet.
Next, the others asked a few questions, and Xu Qing answered them one by one.
The 22 people finally agreed to build a website for Xu Qing, and of course Xu Qing also offered a generous payment.
22 people plus 3 roommates, a total of 25 people, Xu Qing asked West to manage these people, Xu Qing's request was to set up 3 websites within 2 months.
It's not very difficult to build a website now, and these 25 people are all among the top technical in the computer science department at Stanford.
Stanford and Silicon Valley have a very close relationship, and the strength of the computer science department can be said to be the largest among the universities in the world.
What Xu Qing said just now is also true, these people's skills are better than those of many computer companies outside.
It is believed that most of these people will enter Xu Qing's Internet company after graduation.
Of course, Xu Qing's Internet company can't rely on these people alone, and Xu Qing also plans to recruit some computer talents with work experience.
Looking at the time, there are more than 10 days before the Spring Festival, Xu Qing postponed the establishment of the Internet company until after the Spring Festival, and the recruitment of talents was carried out normally, and Xu Qing sent someone to take charge of this matter.
The time was approaching, and the grandparents came to the Bay Area from Montana, and Xu Qing's family and Sophia greeted them at the door.
When the grandparents saw Sophia, they couldn't stop smiling, and the grandmother directly took Sophia's hand and kept asking.
Grandpa patted Xu Qing's head with satisfaction, praising Xu Qing for doing a good job, and he wanted to give a big red envelope on Chinese New Year's Eve.
Xu Qing is helpless, the Xu family, who is thin, is about to go crazy if they want to spread their branches, it is impossible for their parents to do so, they can only expect Xu Qing.
