Chapter 656: Grandview Software
Why did Wu Xiaozheng change the name of the ordering system to the cash register system?
This is because the ordering system is limited to the catering industry, while the cash register system can be applied to most retail, wholesale, and service industries.
Just like Chef Wu's side, once the cashier system of the catering industry is perfected, it can be used in the retail and wholesale industry with a little modification, and with a little modification, it can be used in the hotel industry, and then it can be used in the pharmaceutical industry......
If there is no market competition, the market size can be far more than hundreds of millions, but tens of billions, and the hidden value that can be extended is even greater.
Wu Xiaozheng's upcoming software company depends on how much it can occupy in this huge market.
"To prepare to set up a company, there are not enough people, it is far from enough, there must be a perfect development team, there must be an engineering team, there must be a sales team, there must be a complete company structure, in order to quickly promote this business. ”
No matter how big the market is, it must be operated by companies and people.
Now that a business opportunity has been identified, it is imperative to set up a company immediately.
How the company was established and how it operated, the two program apes were still a little at a loss.
Wu Xiaozheng has to solve a problem first.
He asked Zhong Mingyu seriously: "Are you sure you don't plan to resign yet?" This is a huge opportunity for you, and it depends on you whether you can seize it or not. ”
Can Zhong Mingyu say no?
In everyone's life, there will be some opportunities to change their fate, these opportunities have the ability to change their fate, but also contain huge risks, and most importantly, opportunities are fleeting.
Before today, Zhong Mingyu would have hesitated to resign, but now that he understands such a huge market, if he still hesitates, then he is a fool.
"I'm going to school today to resign. Zhong Mingyu said with an oath.
Wu Xiaozheng nodded with satisfaction.
If Zhong Mingyu is a person who doesn't know how to seize opportunities, then he doesn't want such a person.
Employing people, ability is one thing, courage is also one thing, vision is even more important.
Wu Xiaozheng began to arrange the specific details of the establishment of the IT company.
"The name of the company is Grandview Software. ”
Wu Xiaozheng has always been very casual in choosing a name.
For example, Lao Gan Ma, Heaven and Earth, Zhengjia Plaza, etc., all have a lot of bad taste.
Now he is thinking, since there is Grandview business, why can't there be Grandview software?
That's how the name of the IT company was decided.
Its positioning is clear, since we are now in the software era of the IT industry, it is mainly software development.
"For the registration of the company, you go to Liu Zhijun and Shen Mo specifically, and the office space also asks them to help find a temporary one first. ”
Since the company is going to be registered, it is natural to supplement the personnel, and after there are more people, it is not suitable to nest in Wu Xiaozheng's office.
Before the Wu Chef Building is built, the best way is to rent a few four-bedroom apartments in the Kangning community to deal with it temporarily, just like Liu Zhijun and others, so that they can work and live at the same time.
Besides, Wu Xiaozheng has more and more contacts in Changshi, and it is not good for his office to be occupied for a long time.
After its establishment, Zhong Mingyu was temporarily responsible for the overall responsibility of the company. ”
Wu Xiaozheng announced the first personnel order.
This means that if Zhong Mingyu is competent, he is positioned as the general manager of this software company.
Only then did Zhong Mingyu realize how important his attitude just now was.
If he had hesitated a little more just now, maybe this position would not have been his share.
That's true.
Wu Xiaozheng found that although Zhong Mingyu spoke a little arrogantly, his thinking was still very meticulous, and he could take on some affairs in terms of overall responsibility.
Now that Grandview Software has just begun, since he has potential, Wu Xiaozheng is also willing to give him a chance to grow.
"Chan Ka Yew is positioned as a technical director for the time being, but there is one thing you have to strengthen your ability to express yourself. ”
Chen Jiayao nodded firmly.
He knows where his strengths lie and where his flaws lie.
Developing software is his specialty.
In Wu Xiaozheng's view, in terms of technical level, Chen Jiayao is a few points stronger than Zhong Mingyu, but he is weaker than the other party in terms of expression and overall planning.
There is a CEO, there is a CTO, and there is still a very important person missing, that is, the CMO.
C*O, is the future of the IT industry in the senior management of the popular name, for example, CEO is the CEO meaning, equivalent to the general manager of traditional enterprises, CTO means chief technology officer, which is equivalent to the marketing director, and CMO, its Chinese name is chief marketing officer, equivalent to the role of marketing director.
In an IT company, these three positions basically represent the core of the company.
"One of your next important tasks is to poach people, especially someone who can be a marketing director, who has strong marketing and sales skills, and at the same time has to know a little bit of technology. ”
For the position of CMO, Zhong Mingyu and Chen Jiayao cannot be trusted, and among Chef Wu's existing sales staff, there is no one and no computer foundation, so this important person can only be poached from the outside.
"We can figure out a way about this. Zhong Mingyu took the initiative to take on the task.
After all, he and Chen Jiayao are computer majors, and they still know some people in this industry in Changshi, and it is not difficult to poach people when Wu Xiaozheng wants to play this company so big.
The company structure is basically in place.
Then there's the question of how to do business.
The first thing to push is naturally the cash register business.
How to push?
This is a technical question.
As mentioned earlier, the market in this area is huge, and Grandview Software will also occupy a certain opportunity, but according to the laws of the business field, a business that can make a lot of money may have competitors come out to imitate and seize the market at any time.
Therefore, it is necessary to establish a certain competitive advantage.
"This cash register system can't be pushed like it is now, we have to work with a hardware company to customize a specialized, low-cost small cash register. ”
Wu Xiaozheng made a very important suggestion.
In the past, when Chef Wu bought a computer, the expensive 386 made him feel very painful, and in later generations, most of the cash register systems had low-cost small cash registers.
Therefore, if Grandview Software wants to establish a competitive advantage in the market, it must first reduce the cost and make it difficult for ordinary companies to imitate.
For this reason, it is very important to customize specialized equipment.
In order to cooperate with low-configuration, low-cost customized equipment, it is also necessary to change the existing cash register system to a version that runs under the DOS system after it is improved.
The two programmers are busy again.
