"Let me tell you a story." Fan Wuxi smiled slightly.

"That's good, of course." Everyone still has expectations for Fan Wuxi's story. After all, I have never heard Fan Wuxian tell a story to an employee before, even if he is a senior executive of the company, he has never had this honor.

The first thing that the vice president and the manager of the personnel department thought of was the main reason why Fan Wuxian and Yan Yuese were happy this time, or was it because the beautiful and lovely Miss Ziqi was by her side?

Fan Wuxian thought about it for a while, and then told a story that he had seen.

There was an old man walking on a country road with his dog, looking at the scenery along the road, and suddenly, the old man realized that he had passed away. He didn't know where the road leads, he just walked forward blankly.

After walking for a while, I saw a towering marble wall in front of me, in the middle of which was a glittering arch decorated with various jewels, and the road in front of the gate was paved with gold bricks.

The old man was so excited that he thought he had finally reached heaven. He walked to the door with the dog and met the janitor.

"Excuse me, is this heaven?" The old man asked.

"Yes, sir." The janitor replied.

"Great, there must be water in there, right? We've come a long way. ”

"Of course, come in, I'll give you water right away." The janitor slowly pushed the door open.

"Can my friends come in with me?" The old man asked, pointing to the dog.

"I'm sorry. We do not allow pets here. ”

The old man was silent for a moment, thinking of the dog's loyalty to him over the years, and it was impossible for him to throw it away like this. He thanked the janitor, left "Paradise" and continued with the dog.

After a long journey, the old man saw a broken wooden door on the side of the road, and the wooden gate led to a potholed dirt road.

The old man went with his dog and saw a man reading a book under a tree.

"Excuse me," said the old man to the reader, "may I ask you, do you have water to drink?" We are thirsty. ”

"Of course, there's a tap over there, so you can have a drink." The reader pointed to the door.

"Can my friend go in?" The old man asked, pointing to his dog.

"Welcome." Said the reader.

The old man entered the gate with the dog, and there was a bowl next to the old-fashioned faucet. The old man first filled a bowl with a bowl of water for the dog to drink, and then refilled it again, and drank enough himself. Satisfied, they left the faucet and returned to the side of the reader.

"What is this place?" The old man asked.

"It's paradise." The reader replied.

"Well, that's weird, it's not like it at all, and we've just passed through heaven."

"Are you talking about the place with the golden paving and the beautiful arches?"

"Yes, it's very beautiful."

"Tell you what's going on, it's hell."

"I see. Then why don't you mind if they usurp the name of heaven? ”

"Of course not, they saved us a lot of time and picked out for us those who threw away their conscience and principles for their own benefit." The reader replied with a slight smile.

After listening to Fan Wuxi's story, everyone had some understanding, but there were still some essences that they didn't grasp. So they all focused on Fan Wuxi's body.

Fan Wuxi looked at the three people in the room, raised his glass and invited them to take a sip, and then explained slowly, "What is the most important thing for a company? ”

"Make money."

"Talent."

"Management."

"Marketplace."

β€œβ€”β€”β€

The three of them gave a lot of examples, and Fan Wuxian nodded and smiled, "These are all very important, but I think if you can sum it up in a more accurate word, it is highly loyal talents." ”

Seeing that everyone was still thinking, Fan Wuxian explained, "During the Three Kingdoms, Liu Bei was so bleak, why was he able to occupy Xishu and establish himself as the emperor later, and there was one of the three parts of the world?" Isn't it because he has a group of loyal subordinates like Guan Yu, Zhang Fei and Zhuge Liang. No matter where he fled, these people would always try their best to follow him, and eventually achieved the hegemony of the world. For a large enterprise, this principle is also applicable, we need talents, but talent is mobile, we can not guarantee that the company's talents will always serve us, then we need the most. It is the loyal employees who have a high sense of belonging to the company, which is our most valuable asset. With these people, we can create one business miracle after another at any time. As for those who were tempted to leave halfway, we can only say that they chose a different path from us, and their departure is not necessarily the loss of our company, screening out a group of employees who are not determined to leave, leaving a group of loyal talents, which is equivalent to the optimization of the choice of sand and gold. Isn't that a good thing, you say? ”

After listening to Fan Wuxi's words, the vice president and the manager of the personnel department couldn't help but admire Fan Wuxi's five-body throw, which is obviously a very heartwarming thing, and Fan Wuxian said this, but it has become the company's natural choice for survival of the fittest, and Mr. Fan's way of thinking is really very different from ordinary people.

It is because of such a generous and detached idea that Fan's Investment Group was able to achieve today's achievements, and the two of them looked at Fan Wuxi's eyes, and immediately had a lot of admiration.

However, Ziqi felt that there were still some fly in the ointment of the example given by Fan Wuxi, so she asked, "If they choose a wrong path of development, it would be fine, but if they have achieved better development, wouldn't it mean that the example you gave is wrong?" ”

Fan Wuxian listened to Ziqi's words, and said with a slight smile, "Well, yes, being a host requires the ability to ask new questions at any time, if they develop better, of course I won't be jealous." After all, they are all people who have gone out of our Fan Investment Group, and their success also shows that the experience they have gained in our company is beneficial. But you should notice that the new owner they have invested in is a little-known Internet company. ”

"Since you can get $20 million in financing, it means that this Internet company is not necessarily mediocre, right?" Ziqi naturally refused to let go of this question, "Or one day, this is another Yahoo or Amazon website?" These people will be called billionaires, and they will now be paid very well. ”

The vice president and the manager of the personnel department were a little apprehensive about Ziqi's counterattack, and Mr. Fan was just an example, Miss Ziqi, why do you have to worry about it? There can't be a perfect example of what kind of environment we're in right now, right? That's pretty much it! Could it be that if you make it so difficult for Mr. Fan, will Mr. Fan like you more?

In the eyes of the executives of the entire Fan Investment Group, there is really no girl who can be worthy of Fan Wuxi, even if Mr. Fan's doll fiancΓ©e, Miss Shen Ying, is known as a genius child, she can't be compared with Mr. Fan, so seeing Ziqi mercilessly confronting Fan Wuxie, the two of them are not very comfortable in their hearts.

"It is precisely because they have chosen to invest in the Internet industry that I will assert that they have embarked on a very bleak development path." Fan Wuxian said, "Don't look at the current Internet industry is hot, but the bubble is too big, sooner or later it will collapse, these people choose an industry that will have problems sooner or later, what good results do you think they can have?" At most, it will survive until the end of next year. The big layoffs in the Internet industry are coming. ”

In 1993, Yang Zhiyuan, a Ph.D. student at Stanford University, founded the Yahoo search website, which by 1998 had a total revenue of $200 million and a total profit of $25 million. Since 1999, Yahoo's stock market value has reached nearly $38 billion, surpassing that of Boeing.

In 199, at the age of 31, Bezos decided to sell products on the Internet, and Amazon.com was born. By 1999, the Amazon online bookstore was the world's third-largest book seller, with 4.5 million regular customers. So far, the revenue has reached $356 million. From its public listing in 1997 to the end of 1998, its stock price soared 23 times.

And Netscape, a company that has not earned a penny in less than two years from its establishment to listing, actually stands opposite the giant Microsoft! After comparing Yahoo and Boeing, some people even gave this definition: three years of the network economy is equal to seventy years of the industrial economy!

The Internet has made people's dreams come true, and the myth of the quick riches created by the Internet has attracted thousands of latecomers to follow, and the increasing expansion of the ranks of netizens seems to determine that its follow-up development space will always be unlimited.

As a result, this bubble demonstration quickly spread to China, and Sohu only made a profit of $400,000, which was actually snatched up by various media. So far, few Internet companies have come forward and claimed that they have made a profit by investing in the network.

However, with the collapse of the NASDAQ stock market represented by technology stocks and the bursting of the Internet bubble for 2,000 years, the global Internet industry has entered a harsh winter, and the domino effect has driven the overall decline of the IT industry, and the market is in a downturn.

According to Ebmergers, at least nearly 5,000 Internet companies around the world have been acquired or closed in the year since the bursting of the 2,000-year-old dot-com bubble.

The ensuing layoffs were like a plague that spread among American high-tech companies. And layoffs quickly radiate from the bottom to the top of the high-tech food chain, the result of years of overheated stock markets and high-tech companies' blind pursuit of speed.

A year later, they realized what is the hardship of society, when not only the Internet industry is facing major layoffs, but also the talents in the whole society have begun to worry about finding jobs.

"Generally speaking, people only become more mature after they have experienced many setbacks." Fan Wuxian finally said to the HR manager, "However, if they are desperate at that time, I hope you can take the initiative to contact them and give them a chance." I'm sure they will learn a lot after something like this. ”

The manager of the personnel department nodded and agreed, but he felt a little suspicious in his heart, but the boss had something to say, so he would listen to it.

There are no pop-ups
