Guangdong Province, Guangzhou, Tengyun Company Research Institute.

Tengyun's headquarters is located in Shenzhen, which is well known. But everyone inside Tengyun knows that the most desirable position for technical employees, in addition to the uncovetable CTO Zhang Zhidong, is the dean of the research institute of the Guangzhou Academy.

The technical person in charge of each specific project is yearning for his project to sit in this position after the word-of-mouth explosion of his own project and his technology is revealed.

However, something that has happened in the past few days has made several technical leaders of the project who were originally expected to be promoted panic and resentment.

"Tony pulled someone from Huang Yi over to make QQ space and email products, and it is said that he was directly parachuted into the position of the president of Guangyuan!"

"It's none of Tony's business, Pony should be in charge. Tony, the CTO, is the one who pulls hatred behind his back! ”

"I can't say that, after all, he is the CTO, and arranging the seat is also good for his own authority."

The two people who talked, one named Wang Qingming, was the technical director of QQ, and he came up step by step from the technical route of server data flow optimization, which was the most difficult part of QQ back then. The other is Ren Yuxin, who is the head of QQ's WEB application technology, in charge of the research and development of the web version.

Both of them are technical veterans who joined Tengyun before the outbreak of the Internet winter in 2000, and they can be regarded as having lived a hard life with the company for more than three years.

If it is left under the leadership of Ahri Ma Feng, who pays attention to the habit of "the old buddies make mistakes are a matter of route, and the mistakes made by external airborne executives are a matter of position", Wang Qingming and Ren Yuxin obviously want to be unconditionally entrusted with reuse, after all, in Ma Feng's eyes, whether a talent's position has been tested is its most critical attribute.

It's a pity that here in Ma Teng, everything pays attention to the deep wolf nature, and it is nothing to unload the mill and kill the donkey and change the cage for the bird.

Three or four months ago, Gu Cheng's YY network technology launched the YY product, and Ma Teng clearly saw it in his eyes. After a few months of development, although Ma Teng still believes that YY is still a product that stays at the level of "voice group chat tools between gamers", his need for defensive restrictions on QQ layout has become more and more urgent.

YY can do post bars and communities, QQ only followed up a QQ group. However, in other web-based SNS communities, QQ completely lacks the technical reserves needed to follow up.

If you don't have technical reserves, you can dig a technical team, which is the easiest and fastest way to copy.

Historically, Ma Teng recruited Zhang Long, an independent angel investor who had originally developed Silver Fox Mail and had now cashed out, a year later, and asked Zhang Long to rely on his experience and reserves in making Silver Fox Mail to engage in QQ space and mailbox. and promised Zhang Long the position of the dean of the research institute of the Guangzhou Academy.

Unfortunately, there was a small butterfly effect here: in August 2000, Zhang Long failed to sell the Silver Fox mail to investment institutions in time at a high of $12 million. Because of Gu Cheng's traffic data fraud business, and even Zhou Hongyi's follow-up temptation, Zhang Long lost himself for a short time, and as a result, he survived the total collapse of the Internet bubble.

Others opened 12 million and didn't sell it, and in the end, 3 million in their hands was not worth it. Then Zhang Long committed suicide by jumping off the building and fell into a pile of corpses.

At present, because of Gu Cheng's pressing, in order to speed up the copying and copying, Ma Teng's poaching plan had to be advanced, but there was no suitable candidate to dig, and then he set his sights on Dong Rongjie, Huang Yi's deputy technical director.

Which one is stronger in email technology? Huaxia Wu Yue looked for Huang Yi.

And Dong Rongjie is a technical executive who climbed from the line of Huang Yi's mailbox to the top of Huang Yi.

Huang Yi is the largest and best mailbox among the top three, beating Sina. In the absence of a third-party independent force to choose from, and can only poach people from the giants, with Ma Teng's vision, he naturally fell in love with Dong Rongjie.

It's only 03 years now, Huang Yi is a NASDAQ listed company, and Tengyun's momentum is far inferior to Huang Yi. If Ma Teng wants to dig up cattle, it is impossible to dig up the position of dividend options and absolute importance. The position of co-founder and CTO Zhang Zhidong cannot be moved, and the only one left is the president of the Guangyuan.

Tactically speaking, this is the right move. Large international companies should indeed be meritocracy, and those who are most valuable to the company at the moment. But doing so more or less makes the employees who still pay attention to a bit of righteousness in the hearts of the employees who share the hardships feel unfair:

With a resume of suffering with you Ma Teng for several years, there is no future BUFF bonus at all?

……

"Xiao Ren, what are you going to do?"

On this day, it was overtime until late at night, and Tengyun's canteen provided five meals a day as usual. Wang Qingming and Ren Yuxin happened to meet in the cafeteria, found a cubicle in the corner, and drank some wine.

After three points of drinking, as soon as some of the brothers said that they were good at friendship, their usual resentment was naturally revealed.

Ren Yuxin pinched the beer bottle in one hand and turned the chopsticks in the other: "What else can I do, QQ on the WEB side can't get more functions, and the browser can't hold it." Other small technical adjustments will definitely be merged into the QQ Space Project Department at that time. Tony talked to me two days ago and asked me about my career plan......"

"What did you say?" Wang Qingming, who was slightly distracted by alcohol, condensed a little, asked eagerly.

"Tony gave me two ways, one turned to value-added services, he planned a series of membership fee projects to sell diamonds to QQ, if you are willing to do it, there are a lot of things you can dig. Another article is that the company is recently preparing to develop a game lobby and make a game platform. ”

"Then it should be safer to sell diamonds."

"It's fast to cash out when selling diamonds, but I don't think there's a future. That kind of thing is not a rigid demand, and individual elementary school students feel glorious when they buy diamonds, and they show off their prices. The devil knows how most people behind the scenes are mocking them for being stupid - forcing them to spend money. ”

"So ......"

"I chose the lobby." Ren Yuxin said.

Ren Yuxin's choice is not necessarily as great as he said, in order to challenge himself. On the other hand, his qualifications are not very sufficient, if he sells diamonds with fast cash out and KPIs, he may not be able to be the number one technical leader.

And the game hall that can't see profit prospects in three or four years can make Ren Yu Xinning a chicken mouth and a cow queen.

After all, later history has also proved that in the first few years when Tengyun's game lobby first came out, there were only free games. 07 years ago, QQ games are still more conscientious, although it is inevitable to copy and copy peers, but at least it does not pit consumers' money, and the user experience is relatively smooth. The employees of the game division, in the past few years from 03 to 08, have no status in Tengyun at all.

But Ren Yuxin relied on this choice after all, and after several years, waited for most of QQ's games to enter the profitable stage, and finally climbed to the position of Tengyun COO - of course, that is just the trajectory of another time and space. Now that there is Gu Cheng, a moth inserted into the bar, whether the Tengyun Game Hall can live to the day of profit, it is a matter of two words.

"Do the game lobby? Brother, be careful! Don't rush into the pit just to be the leader of the project. Wang Qingming is also a human spirit, and as soon as he was a little sober, he naturally knew Ren Yuxin's motives, and he pierced him without hesitation.

Ren Yuxin smiled insincerely: "If you don't break through, how do you know." Lao Wang, since you are so optimistic about selling diamonds, you will tell Tony in the future that it is not enough to take care of this part of the business. With your qualifications, it's definitely okay to mix up the top of the project. ”

"I don't like to sell diamonds, it's boring." Wang Qingming vetoed it without hesitation.

Ren Yuxin looked disgusted: "Then you still let me into the pit?" ”

Wang Qingming gritted his teeth and persuaded: "I think that since Ma Teng doesn't miss the old love so much...... Then he is unkind to me. We can't find another high. ”

"You want to change jobs?" Ren Yuxin's pupils widened suddenly.

Wang Qingming knew that the success or failure of the matter was at this moment, and he kept persuading: "How about it?" Are you interested in working together? You do WEB-QQ research and development, if you jump to YY, Gu Cheng is short of someone to engage in a group chat on the web page, absolutely reuse yours! The salary dividend is more than 3 times higher than here! Now no one in the circle knows that Gu Cheng has plenty of cash. ”

"No...... No, I can't do this kind of thing. That, whoever is the president of Guangyuan has nothing to do with me. I'm just a little learned, and my qualifications are short, so I can't take my turn in the first place. No matter how Mr. Ma arranges, he is not sorry for me, why should I jump. Ren Yuxin was a little flustered, but his eyes were rolling around with bones, revealing some of his inner thoughts.

Wang Qingming saw it in his eyes and already understood the other party's thoughts.

If you don't change jobs, the other party may feel that the promotion is far away. Now that he is going to jump, there is a vacant position on it, and Ren Yuxin will not follow.

It's a big deal, he just moved one step first, and moved to the space vacated by Wang Qingming's flash.

People have no ambitions.

"Then you do a good job, I wish you every step of the way." Wang Qingming put down the last sentence and was not ready to say more.

"Lao Wang, you are doing server data flow optimization, what else can you do when you go to YY? The basic functions of their software are almost developed, and YY company is not short of money to rent bandwidth and servers, and there are other business cash flows to support. It's useless for you to go there, and it's impossible to be reused......" Ren Yuxin faked a couple of sentences, although he wished that Wang Qingming would jump ship immediately, the sooner the better.

"Then don't bother my brother, thank you, I have my own way."

Wang Qingming didn't want to say more, and with a lot of thoughts, he went to Ma Teng to submit his resignation the next day.

Ma Teng was still a little surprised to receive his resignation, but he knew that it was the problem caused by the airborne executives of the email and space project department, so he couldn't say anything. gave Wang Qingming more than a month of handover period and let him go.
