At this time, it was 10 p.m. The lights are always shining in the worry-free payment company.

Debra's eyes were half-open and half-closed, leaning back in her chair, yawning, she couldn't remember how many times it was unpaid overtime, obviously nothing happened to her, but that hateful Roy didn't let go at all.

She glanced at the rushed, nervous overtime workers in the tech area, and was constantly encouraged by Roy's madman, frantically typing characters on the computer that she couldn't understand.

"Alas, these people are crazy, and sooner or later they will follow in their footsteps. ”

Debra quietly picked up her bag and prepared to sneak away. Working overtime to this point in time, it can be regarded as worthy of the boss, and she usually leaves at this point, at most, she is scolded afterwards.

As soon as she stood up, she was inexplicably discovered by Roy.

"Debra, come back and bring fifty suppers. ”

"Ahh......h

Technical Zone.

Keno encapsulates the last piece of code and raises his hand to indicate that testing is ready to begin.

Roy quickly returned to the testing machine, opened the console, and ran the latest version of the program.

At the same time, Anji recorded the error situation in the background on his computer, quickly fed back to the corresponding responsible team, and raised his face from time to time to look at Roy, who had fought for a day and a night, and the infectious fighting spirit in his heart surged into his heart, this kind of enthusiasm to challenge the limit, under the traction of a goal, exudes infinite vitality.

Everyone, including Anji, has only one task on their computer desktop, showing what the current employee is going to do. It's a homemade little program that can only fill in one job and can only be modified on the manager's computer.

Angie was embarrassed to tell the leader that she was doing a simple task, so the goal on her desk was still quite difficult.

Most people also have the mentality of Anji.

On a weekly and monthly basis, Roy asks employees to clearly state their "most valuable contribution to the company." The point is, only one can be written.

Roy said that man is actually an animal that likes to escape challenges and difficulties. For example, if you have two tasks at hand: one is very difficult and has no clear answer, but once solved, it will have a huge impact on the company, and the other is relatively clear and helpful to the company, but not so beneficial - in this case, people tend to prioritize solving the problem that has a clear answer. Once it was solved, he would find himself another easy problem, and finally the very difficult, but very important, problem would be put on hold.

But what if you only have one task? You're going to do everything you can to solve it -- because there's no escape.

Roy stresses every day that if the company keeps ignoring the 95-point problem and keeps solving the 85-point problem, then the company will end up being a 70-80 point company.

Anji heard the above words, and she could recite two sentences casually.

However, she also heard that this "extreme focus" management concept was stolen by Roy from PayPal, and she didn't know if it was true or false.

Time passed minute by minute, and finally passed the functional test of "Yue Bao" before 12 o'clock in the evening, and everyone immediately stood up, cheered, and laughed.

Roy rubbed his eyes and announced that he would leave work, and he returned to the office, collapsed on the sofa and fell asleep instantly.

……

A luxurious hotel suite.

Sitting in front of the computer in full clothes, Cliffor tried out the latest version of the software of worry-free payment, and when he saw the new feature of "Yue Bao", the corners of his mouth raised a smile.

"Do you want to use the temptation of higher interest rates than the bank to withdraw users' savings funds for the company's emergency turnover? If this is your last resort, then I can only stop here. ”

He dialed a number and asked, "Do you see the new features released by the worry-free payment software?"

"Hmm. A middle-aged man's voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Tell me about your current situation. ”

"Today, an opinion piece in The New York Times on 'The Risks Behind Online Payments' has been drafted, which mentions the high risk of worry-free payments being investigated by the FBI and online payments. This comment will definitely be reprinted in large numbers, and the wave of doubts about worry-free payment will follow, and it will also directly affect the activity of worry-free payment users. “

"And after that?"

"We will follow up on the follow-up business review, and gradually expose the Ponzi scheme of worry-free payment relying on 'Yu Yu Bao' to tear down the east wall and make up the west wall, and with the fermentation of the incident, the entire Internet payment industry will fall into a long-term quagmire. ”

Continue to pay attention to the trends of Hassle-Free Payment and PayPal, and choose the most appropriate angle and time to enter. ”

"Okay, Mr. Cleaver. ”

After hanging up the phone, Cliffor suddenly thought of something, a happy smile appeared on his face, he dialed another phone, and asked softly, "Evine, I forgot to ask last time, which position do you like to do most in a company?"

After the merger of PayPal and X., the whole moved to an office building in Silicon Valley.

Today, the scale of two or three hundred people far exceeds that of worry-free payment companies.

PayPal now has Peter Thiel and Elon Musk, two financing experts, who quickly raised 100 million funds, ready to make a big show and pay without worry.

However, the unexpected troubles have quietly appeared within the company, so much so that PayPal's technical development has been halted for a week.

PayPal's meeting room.

The top management of the original PayPal and the top management of the original X. sat on both sides clearly, arguing about whether to charge or not to charge for the PayPal software.

A former x.'s high pipe: "Now that PayPal's software service is very good, it is the best time to charge." ”

Peter Thiel objected: "Once the fee is charged, the company's growth slows down, which is very bad for PayPal's long-term growth." ”

"But the company's money is burning too fast, this financing of 100 million, has overdrawn the value of the company's brand, if this money is burned again, the company is really in crisis. ”

"No, the most important thing at this stage is growth, and I won't consider charging services until I grow up. ”

"So why do we have to invest so much energy and money to provide a shopping guarantee service between individuals and merchants?! If this can't be charged, then where is the sustainability of the business?"

"It's not that there is no fee, it's just that the timing is not good enough. Worry-free payments are still our biggest threat, and if we charge for them, we are likely to be cleared out of the market by our competitors' free services. ”

"The worry-free payment fund chain is tight, and the scientific research strength is not as strong as ours, so what can he use to compete with us? After his A round of financing failed, it is no longer a threat at all. ”

"Don't underestimate any of your opponents......"

……

The two forces have been arguing endlessly, from whether the software should be charged, to the conflict of subtle habits in daily work. The meeting was chaotic and pointless, but there was no single leader who could unify the pace of the organization......
