San Francisco, USA.

In the study room of the apartment, Bian Xuedao sat in front of the computer, opened his work mailbox, and read the daily routine briefing sent by the group office.

The first major item in the content of the briefing is the preparation for the listing of Weibo.

Shen Ya'an, Hong Chengfu, Wang Yinan, Wu Dingwen, as well as the group's finance department, legal department, and supervision department are making every effort to promote this work.

The second major item of the briefing was the pre-negotiation and subscription of Youdao Group's issuance of US$1.5 billion bonds, and the negotiation of bank loans to buy two business jets, Gulfstream G550 and Gulfstream G450.

The third major item of the briefing is the construction and trial operation of the IDC data center reported by Shen Ya'an.

After several years of heavy investment, Youdao Group's IDC data center network has been largely formed.

All the network nodes in China have been completed.

Half of the North American nodes in Europe were built. In addition, the East Asia node has been built in Japan. The Southeast Asia node is in Singapore and is in the process of testing.

The Singapore data center was a lot of work.

Singapore's tropical location is theoretically not a good choice for building a data center.

Because data centers are inherently cool, they require a lot of energy to cool to keep them running. In this case, building a data center in the tropics and heating it on top of heat will not only increase cooling energy consumption, increase operating costs, but also cause a lot of pressure on the equipment itself.

On the other hand, from a political and cultural point of view, Singapore is the most stable and suitable among Southeast Asian countries. So after careful consideration, Bian Xuedao and Shen Ya'an still decided to build the Southeast Asia data center node in Singapore.

Youdao Group has built a data center in Singapore, which has received full support from the Singapore government.

The Infocomm Development Authority of Singapore, Nanyang Technological University (NTU) and Youdao Group are testing whether the data centre can operate optimally with an ambient temperature of 38 degrees Celsius and a humidity of 90% or above.

If the data center is successfully operated, it proves that there is no need to strictly control the cooling environment, which will not only break the geographical location limitation of the data center, but also reduce the energy demand of the data center operation, which will be a very significant breakthrough.

The fourth major item of the briefing is a client-side national war game "Immortal Legend" independently developed by the game department of Zhiwei Technology, which is about to start its first internal beta.

The Zhiwei Game Department has invested a lot of effort and energy in this game, and at the same time has considerable expectations for this game, and even hopes that it can take over the baton of "Eight Heavenly Dragons" and continue the legendary status of the Zhiwei Game Department in the industry.

The fifth major item of the briefing was the reaction of domestic public opinion to the content of SpaceX's press conference.

After a general glance at the content, he pulled down the mouse while learning the way and smiled.

The outside world was disturbing, and he didn't care at all.

His thoughts are similar to Musk's.

The funds are clean, the investment agreement is formal, it is just a pure investment behavior, not mixed with those nonsense and conjectures.

The sixth major item of the briefing is Zhiwei video.

The "Zhiwei Video Animation Art Award" and the "Beautiful 2008" Micro Film Contest have all entered the final stage, and the social response has been very good.

The two activities not only played the popularity of Zhiwei Video, increased the number of visits to the website, enriched the exclusive original library of the website, but also established a cooperative relationship with a group of young and cutting-edge directors, and tapped a group of talented and potential animation talents and young actors, which can be said to have gained a lot.

In view of this, Zhiwei Video plans to strike while the iron is hot, bring together 16 young cutting-edge directors, and launch a series of "16 Youth" micro-films with the theme of "Youth and Struggle".

Even if it's a micro-film, it's a movie.

As an investor, distribution and broadcasting platform, Lu Heng, president of Zhiwei Video, applied for 10 million funds to support the "16 Youth" series with the group.

In Youdao Group, the transfer of more than 5 million funds must be signed by Bian Xuedao, and the vice president has no right to approve it first and then report, so it was reported through the briefing.

After reading the briefing, Bian Xuedao sat on a chair and thought about it, clicked on the attachment called "16 Youths", and browsed the director's personal information and script introductions of 16 micro-films.

Looking at it, Bian Xuedao's eyes widened.

――Chinese name: "Old Boy"

- English name: "Old-Boys"

- Director: Xiao Yang

- Screenwriter: Xiao Yang

- Type: Youth nostalgia

- Starring: Xiao Yang, Wang Taixing

――Director's resume: 2007 directed the funny film "Memoirs of a Male Geisha"

――Script Introduction:......

Seeing this, Bian Xuedao can already determine that this is the popular online micro-movie "Old Boy" of the Chopsticks Brothers in his previous life.

In fact, Bian Xuedao asked Lu Heng to tinker with micro-movies, which itself has the meaning of copying "Old Boy", but he was too busy to forget about this stubble.

How much money does Timona make from Entertainment? $3 billion to $4 billion.

How much money can you make by investing in Dajiang drones? From $4 billion.

How much money can Zhiwei make from going public on Weibo? Well, it's not clear yet.

For the current Bian Xuedao, a popular online micro-movie, whether it is influential or the money earned, is not in his eyes, and is naturally ranked by the brain into a secondary level, which is very easy to forget.

But that's how the world goes.

I don't go to the chopsticks brothers, but the chopsticks brothers come to learn the way.

This is really lucky, and this brother should become famous.

Looking at the computer screen, thinking that a few years ago, he took the Chopsticks Brothers' "I Must Get You" for himself and renamed it "Dedicated to Li Xun" and gave it to Li Yu for publication, Bian Xuedao felt that he had an obligation to compensate the Chopsticks Brothers.

Thereupon......

With a few clicks of the mouse, he prints out the attachment.

Then find the pen, cross out the 10 million yuan in the amount of funds applied for the "16 Youth" series of micro-films, and write the words "18 million".

After thinking about it, he wrote a line next to "18 million" - "The production fund for each part is 1 million yuan, the production fund for "Old Boy" is 2 million yuan, and the remaining 1 million yuan is used for publicity and promotion. ”

At the end, he added eight more words to the side - "The years are old, and the heart is like a boy." ”

Finally, sign it, write the year, month and date, and send it to the fax.

According to the internal process of Youdao Group, the fax sent back by Bian Xuedao was signed by the supervisor on duty in the chairman's office that day.

Yang Enqiao took care of Shen Fu in the UK, and Fu Caining acted for the chairman's office, that is, Fu Caining and Wang Deliang took turns on duty

After the chairman's office signs for the receipt, the number is written, the record is archived, and then it is immediately reported to the vice president at home.

Basically, it's rare for three of Youdao's three vice presidents to be in Songjiang at the same time.

Wu Sijie, the group's executive director and executive vice president, spends most of his time in the Yanjing branch, or flying around the world, discussing investments and acquisitions.

Shen Ya'an, executive vice president, spends more time in Songjiang than Wu Sijie, but because part of the business of the Network Interconnection Division (IT) in charge of his business has been transferred to Yanjing, he often runs between Songjiang and Yanjing.

Among the three vice presidents, only Ding Kedong sits in the Songjiang headquarters all the year round, and he is also the direct supervisor of the chairman's office, so seventy percent of the faxes sent back by Bian Xuedao were signed by Ding Kedong.

According to the procedure, before Ding Kedong signed, he would call Bian Xuedao's phone and confirm with Bian Xuedao that Bian Xuedao knew the content on the fax, and confirmed that the signature was written by Bian Xuedao.

This procedure is to prevent the people around Bian Xuedao from taking advantage of loopholes, and to prevent some people from deceiving and concealing the "false transmission of the holy decree".

After Ding Kedong calls to confirm, he will sign the fax page, and the secretary will make a copy of it, file a copy, and then send it to the general office of the group, the finance department, the supervision department and the departments related to the fax content.

Like Ding Kedong, after receiving the fax copy, the duty supervisor of the Finance Department and the duty supervisor of the Supervision Department will call Bian Xuedao respectively to confirm that Bian Xuedao knows the content of the fax.

After confirmation, the two supervisors on duty signed and sealed, and the instructions on this fax were truly effective.

This set of signature confirmation procedures was designed by Bian Xuedao, which very completely reflects his management idea of "employing people to be suspicious and suspicious".

In the study of the apartment.

After sending the fax, standing in front of the study window and looking at the Golden Gate Bridge, Bian Xuedao suddenly remembered Ma Chengde, who instructed him on how to use people and talked to Bigelow in fluent English.

can be reused by Zhu Haishan for more than 20 years, Ma Chengde's talent, ability and conduct are superior to his peers.

Bian Xuedao even thought about what it would be like if Ma Chengde hadn't died, if Ma Chengde had entered the Youdao Group or acted as his shadow staff.

When I think of Ma Chengde, I inevitably think of the Zhu family.

This time Hu Xi died of illness, while learning to make a phone call, the Zhu family helped without saying a word, although this level of help can only be regarded as a small help, but it still explains what it means to have multiple friends and multiple roads.

Wishing the family......

Allies? Enemies?

One thing is certain, as long as you have a good grasp of proportion, Bian Xuedao and Zhu Jia are mutually beneficial, after all, the current head of the family, Zhu Tiansheng, and the real power faction Zhu Tianyang have shown goodwill.

And also......

Ma Chengde knew that someone in the Zhu family was going to do it, and he calmly went to his death, and asked his nephew Lu Wenjin to send four words to Bian Xuedao before he died.

Is this to let Bian Xuedao avenge him?

Definitely not!

Now that I think about it, Ma Chengde should be like Zhu Haishan, hoping that Bian Xuedao will assist Zhu Tiansheng in cleaning up the Zhu family, instead of defeating the Zhu family.

Through rectification, let the Zhu family twist into a rope, and then Zhu Bian and the two "double swords" and break their wrists with European and American financial groups, this should be what Zhu Haishan and Ma Chengde want to see.

As for Zhu Tianqing's father and son, it is more like a whetstone, sharpening knives, and honing their hearts at the same time.

Those who make good use of power do not get angry, and those who make good use of their benevolence do not do it in vain.

Blame yourself with the heart of others, forgive others with the heart of forgiveness, not afraid of difficulties, not angry, not wasteful fighting, this should be the mind of a generation of heroes.

Just thinking about it, the mobile phone on the desk rang, and it was Ding Kedong calling.

After listening to a few words on the phone, Bian Xuedao said calmly: "I sent the fax, and I approved 18 million funds for the series of micro-films on Zhiwei Video...... Well...... Great work!"
