Chapter 166: True King Overlord Qi
"Gu ...... Mr. Gu, what are you ...... Bring customers to visit? Ah, Mr. Ma is good, Mr. Ding is good. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info" Ye Zhiqiu was a little at a loss, and hurriedly poured tea and handed water in person.
Gu Cheng obviously knew the progress here, and didn't embarrass everyone: "Just take a look casually, I know that you haven't done a good job yet." It's a bit of an eyebrow, just explain it. ”
Ma Feng and Ding Sanshi followed to visit, and Ye Zhiqiu explained at a glance what they were doing recently and what kind of effect Gu Cheng hoped to achieve.
Although it can't be implemented yet, Ding Sanshi is from a technical background after all, and he can roughly distinguish the feasibility just by listening to the principle and structure. As for Ma Feng's lack of understanding of technology at all, he can only look at Ding Sanshi and Gu Cheng's reactions.
Gu Cheng himself didn't need to listen, just wandered there and observed the work status of the employees. When everyone saw Gu Cheng walking over, they couldn't help but stand up and salute and report what they were doing.
Although Internet companies have flat management, after all, Chinese people have thousands of years of hierarchical concepts, and the atmosphere of Western Internet companies is slightly different after all.
Only those who are not interesting to do in YY Network Technology and feel that they don't want to do it will seem completely indifferent in front of Gu Cheng.
Before Gu Cheng came in, he felt a little familiar when he saw Zhang Yiming, and he looked a little stunned, so he took the initiative to assume the posture of Corporal Lixian - he didn't expect to encircle Zhang Yiming himself, but to show other code farmers his generosity Gu Cheng.
"What's your name, when did you come to the company? You just said that there is no sense of accomplishment in doing this?"
"I'm sorry, my name is Zhang Yiming, a fresh graduate who just came this year, majoring in software at Nankai University. Belch...... I did say that I don't think there is any point in this thing -- saving dozens of minutes of compilation time, how can such a small profit be worth it for so many of us programmers to delve into task distribution architecture? Wouldn't it be enough to buy an extra server?"
"Zhang Yiming, we are also considered to have graduated from the same level - I just got a degree at Harvard last month, and I graduated early in the third batch. But to tell you the truth, I only spent two months in school combined. Gu Cheng patted the other party's shoulder, and said a little bit without any traces.
He had obviously recognized this Zhang Yiming as the other Zhang Yiming. But now that his identity and status are there, historical celebrities don't know how many they have seen, and Zhang Yiming, who has not yet found the value of his life, can no longer surprise Gu Cheng.
Just imagine, when he first met Zuckerberg more than two years ago, he was just a very calm reaction. Although Zhang Yiming is rare in China, he is not as good as Zuckerberg after all.
The reason why Gu Cheng put on an approachable appearance was that he was afraid that Zhang Yiming would feel that he had left a bad impression in front of the big boss, and that he would have no hope for the future, so it would be better to change jobs.
After all, if it is a backbone who has been working in YY Network Technology for two or three years, Gu Cheng is not afraid of the other party's casual remarks, after all, the company still has so many upward channels, and the longer it is mixed, the more promising it is. The sunk costs that have already been paid are also greater, and they cannot be recovered.
But if it is a stunned young man who has just graduated, it is very easy to change jobs once he finds that the news is not good - he has not invested any energy in this company, and there is no immediate promotion opportunity, so it is a pity to leave.
The so-called newborn calf is not afraid of tigers, and barefoot is not afraid of wearing shoes, which is this state. In a large company, the more you reach the level of middle-level management cadres and even business department leaders, the more valuable your official position is, the more you dare not talk nonsense in front of the big boss.
And the big boss often behaves more amiably in front of the grassroots employees.
"What you just said is easy - saving a server is really nothing, but what if this model can be promoted? can it save hundreds, thousands, or even more servers?" Gu Cheng asked kindly.
Gu Cheng was so polite, but it made Zhang Yiming embarrassed, but he still insisted on his opinion, thought about it and retorted: "Mr. Gu, with all due respect, all the Internet companies in China add up, and they can't save so many compilation servers as you said. ”
"Who said that after this technology is figured out, it can only be used in the field of 'compilation'? Young people, you should take a long-term view. Gu Cheng said a word of lesson.
Everyone present pinched a cold sweat for Zhang Yiming, thinking that he was going to be copied by Gu Cheng.
Ma Feng saw that this young man did have some dry goods, at least he was a good technical geek, and it would be a pity if he was fired because of his personality quirks, and even thought about "If this young man is really opened by Xiao Gu, I will recruit him to Ahri Baba".
However, the scene of the fired squid did not appear.
"Director Ye, who is that, and a few of you, come here. Gu Chengjing walked into a small conference room and casually beckoned a few technicians in charge of the work, ready to draw a pie for these people.
Ma Feng and Ding Sanshi were also uninvited, and they followed up to audit.
Gu Cheng glanced at everyone and said slowly: "I didn't make the long-term prospects clear at the beginning, everyone didn't know why they did it, it was my problem - I thought that the programmers in this department were all working hard and didn't ask about their motives." Since some of you care so much about fulfillment, I'm going to talk about all the 'big game' -- but after that, you'll have to sign an additional confidentiality agreement with the company and agree on the service period. If you still want to change jobs, you will face huge compensation. It's still too late to go. ”
No one wanted to change jobs in the first place, so everyone was in good spirits.
Zhang Yiming hesitated slightly, but after all, he couldn't resist his curiosity and stayed.
Then, in front of everyone, Gu Cheng concisely explained the prospect layout that he had talked to Ma Fengding Sanshi about when he was drinking in Jiangnan just now, and even the significance of distributed architecture to future cloud computing and the help accumulated in technical routes.
All the code farmers who could only spy on the overall situation suddenly stood in awe of Gu Cheng's overall view.
I didn't expect that the research of a distributed architecture would have such great significance for the future.
Zhang Yiming, who has been listless, also became vibrant.
"Well, now that you understand. Let's go and go back to work. Director Ye, what does Mr. Ma Ding want to see, you take them to see, and you answer their questions if you have any questions - Zhang Yiming, you stay. ”
The others left the room.
……
Gu Cheng left Zhang Yiming behind and chatted with him alone.
This is a young man with a shaved head, metal-framed glasses with white-polished frames, and a very earthy appearance.
Although he is not ugly, he looks like a "rural college student". But the eyes are very lonely, and there is a geek irritability.
Born in 83, he just graduated from college at the age of 22 this year.
In parallel time and space, Zhang Yiming at this point should have just graduated for less than two months, and then worked in an Internet giant for half a year, and then felt that in a large company, "no matter what he does, he can't give full play to his personal value, he can only make a part, a screw, and no sense of achievement", and then he flashed. At the beginning of 06, he and a few friends founded a search website for travel information on Kuxun.com.
In '06, there were already leading travel giants such as Ctrip, and Tuniu was founded in the same year. However, Zhang Yiming's cool news does not want to compete with other websites that do low-cost groups in the mud. He wrote the first humanized and convenient search engine for "free travel" users to make up air tickets, bus tickets, and hotels, focusing on "not restricted by travel agencies", and then a few years after he left, Kuxun was acquired by Meituan.
Gu Cheng naturally couldn't know this historical knowledge.
But Zhang Yiming was sitting in front of him at the moment, and he had time to understand what kind of person the other party was by talking slowly.
"Since I was a child, I have always liked to look for things to look at on my own, and I never looked at popular recommendations. ”
"You ask me how I did in college? I don't really have good communication skills. Girlfriend? Girlfriend has, I caught up, I don't care much about other people's opinions, so I'm thick-skinned. ”
"Bad interpersonal relationships, mainly because I don't sell my friends' recommendations, I don't fit in, and I don't have an interest in group activities. But I've identified something I like, and I'm sure I'll rush to get it. ”
"You asked how the two months of work in the company were? The work is actually quite easy, but there is no sense of accomplishment. I feel that I can't do anything on my own, and I am cooperating with others. ”
Zhang Yiming talked eloquently, not afraid of Gu Cheng at all. Every question is answered truthfully.
The main thing is that he is not afraid of being fired, so he is very open.
Gu Cheng keenly observed that this young man's self-consciousness is very strong, he only likes what he likes, ignores the popularity of others, and is extremely assertive. I don't have any material desires, I asked about his life, and it is estimated that I will spend thousands of dollars a month on living expenses (YY network technology provides dormitories or rental subsidies for employees, and the accommodation company comes out), and the main purpose of work is not for money, but to do something admirable.
Gu Cheng estimated that if he continued to use it like this, this Zhang Yiming would change jobs within half a year, because he couldn't be in the limelight.
After finding out the other party's temperament, Gu Cheng naturally knew how to prescribe the right medicine.
"With the development of network technology to this point, there is definitely no chance to go it alone. Unless you have the ability to start your own company as a CTO, make an outline to lead that person, and let other programmers cooperate with you as a screw. Otherwise, it is certainly impossible to have a sense of accomplishment in every job - this is not the same thing as writing some code and implementing a small function in your school.
The sense of accomplishment is to be found by yourself. If you don't complete a big project, you must learn to set a small goal from the phased task, and mentally hint at yourself when you complete a step, and give yourself a sense of accomplishment. This time, I will personally help you break down the tasks and help you set a few small goals. If you can do it with patience, I'll let you join a project you've been dreaming of for the rest of your life. ”
Gu Cheng easily grasped Zhang Yiming's inner rhythm.
I have to say that a fresh graduate, no matter how strong he is in the future, is still too tender, too confused, and too easy to be fooled in front of Gu Cheng's eyes right now.
