The people Boss Li wants to meet, of course, will have time.

After answering Liu Feitong's call, Gu Mojie immediately cleaned up, changed his clothes and went out, and asked Master Lin to drive him to Baidu. The Passat, which had been slightly deformed from the rear of the crash a few days earlier, was not sent for repair, and still swaggered through the market with the dented scars.

Time shifts are different. After the collapse of the porcelain party in the north of the city and Gu Mojie's serial plan took root in Boss Li's heart, it should have been regarded as a shabby car damage, but at this moment, it is like a swaggering banner, and it is ashamed and proud.

He arrived at Baidu twenty minutes early, and Liu Feitong took the time to accompany him for a while, and did not let him in until Boss Li was free.

Baidu does not have a commuting time system, nor does it punch in, you can get off work when things are done, and all of them are result-oriented for the purpose of management. As long as the results do not lag behind, Baidu's process management of employees can be called extremely free.

The moment I saw Boss Li, it would be false to say that I was not excited. Although he is a reborn, this is the biggest big man Gu Mojie has seen since he was reborn. What's more, this is a real one-on-one appointment; It is not the kind of scene where people wave their hands on the stage and say "comrades have worked hard", and they can only answer "serve the people" bitterly.

The office is not very large, after all, Baidu now has only one floor. However, the modern sense of the room decoration and the atmosphere of the furnishings are enough to give people the illusion that the space is very open and open-minded.

If you have to describe it precisely, it is like mentioning Xue Baochai's Wuyuan in "A Dream of Red Mansions", "There is only one earthen bottle on the desk, and a few cold plums, it will give rise to a sense of spaciousness, making the whole room like a snow cave."

IT'S JUST THAT IN THIS OFFICE, WHAT MAKES PEOPLE FEEL OPEN-MINDED IS NOT XUE BAOCHAI'S EARTHEN BOTTLE, BUT THE HANDSOME MAN SITTING BEHIND THE MACBOOK AND WEARING A POLO SHIRT.

"Mr. Li, I didn't expect you to look for me." Gu Mojie didn't know how to speak, he was calm and calm, but he was actually suppressed by the other party, as if he would be depressed and panicked if he didn't say anything, so he had to be a little jerky and speechless.

Boss Li raised his head, took his eyes off the screen, and looked at the young man in front of him who was too immature to look good, with two points of curiosity and two points of appreciation in his eyes, and the remaining six points, no one could see what it meant.

"Gu Mojie, right? The compiler of the universal pinyin input method? Sit, don't be inhibited, I'm not looking for you for keywords. You should also be improvised, and the past is over. ”

"Thank you, Mr. Li, for your understanding."

"There's nothing wrong with that, I've already asked the programmer to modify the filtering algorithm, and I won't have that chance next time. As for this matter, how did you get those video posts, I'm even less interested in knowing.

I have to say, you are a waste of resources, and you thought of such an opportunity to take advantage of Baidu's management loopholes, just to solve such a trivial personal grievance? So I'm a little curious, what did you think at the time. Don't be inhibited, just make small talk, I'm a person who likes to talk to young people. ”

Although Boss Li finished this sentence in one go, if he felt that his speech speed was as fast as a bead cannon, it would be a big mistake.

Boss Li's Mandarin back nasal sound is more obvious, and there are a little soft sounds of a woman's tongue curl, which is said to be difficult to support the aura only by intonation. He finished the whole paragraph in a rhythm that was slightly hurried in each sentence, but the pauses between sentences were quite obvious.

That is to say, from the point of view of physics, after Boss Li says every sentence, the listener has the opportunity to interject. But there is a strange aura, this aura is not coercion, but warm, making people involuntarily unable to make a sound and interject. In the end, it is still necessary for Boss Li to say "Don't be restrained, just make small talk", and the listener will receive the signal of "I can speak".

Gu Mojie adjusted himself and replied in a calm and objective tone as much as possible:

"I must have thought: Baidu is such a powerful and compact company, and it has millions of customers. Nowadays, there is such a Baidu loophole, which can be used when solving personal grievances; Even if I don't use it today, there will definitely be other Baidu customers who have a flash of inspiration when they encounter this kind of thing, and think of using this method to hype up their enemies.

And once someone uses it, Baidu will find and plug this loophole, and future generations will have no chance, right? So, it's not that I don't want to keep this loophole 'good steel on the blade', but I can't keep it at all, so I can only use it as soon as I get my hands on it.

What's more, I used up this loophole today, and its harvest can't be regarded as 'trivial', at least I got the opportunity for Mr. Li to meet me. You must know that outside, but there are many people who spend thousands of dollars in exchange for a chance to have a cup of coffee with Mr. Li, and I spent thousands of dollars on advertising in exchange, isn't this a kind of harvest? ”

After listening to Gu Mojie's explanation, Boss Li pressed the bell on the table, and Liu Feitong, who was waiting for the news outside, opened the door and came in, brought two cups of coffee, and put them on the desk and coffee table in front of the two of them. Boss Li nodded to Liu Feitong, saying that she could get off work, and he would have a long talk with Gu Mojie later.

After doing this, Boss Li roughly digested the conversation just now, and also figured out Gu Mojie's temperament and thought about the tone of the follow-up recruitment.

This is not to say that Boss Li is slow to react, and his IQ is not as good as Gu Mojie. but because he is, after all, a well-known figure in the public and is in the spotlight every day; What kind of person he is, those who are close to him have figured it out, and they can do their homework in advance. And Gu Mojie is in the dark, and Boss Li can be said to know nothing about Gu Mojie's heart and talent before.

"Mr. Gu, this time, for the sake of Baidu's goodwill, I will go down. You can write that input method, and there are so many flexible and innovative ideas, I am still very optimistic about you. No matter what university you go to in the future, I think Baidu will need people like you. When the time comes, are you willing to come to Baidu to realize the value of your life? ”

Gu Mojie was also slightly moved. After all, it is very rare to be able to be so eclectic, and it is still very rare to be optimistic about a person and extend an olive branch when others are still in high school: "Thank you very much for Mr. Li's trust, if I don't have the idea of starting my own business after graduating from college in the future, I will definitely come to Baidu to realize my own value." ”

Boss Li's expression remained unchanged at all, and he couldn't see the mood fluctuations after being rejected: "In this way, you should have thought about starting a business a long time ago, and that is also a good choice, but I think young people should still accumulate a few years of experience in the organizational form of modern technology enterprises, and then consider that problem - entrepreneurship is not as simple as writing code, an excellent programmer, even if there is an epoch-making product, does not mean that he can succeed in entrepreneurship, right?" ”

"You're right, I believe that no matter which path I take in the future, there is still a lot to learn from Baidu."

"Therefore, even if you find that you still have many difficulties in starting a business, and you need to come to Baidu to study for a few years, even if the day you enter Baidu, you are determined that one day you will leave Baidu to start your own business, I will still give you this opportunity."

Gu Mojie was a little confused, and couldn't help but throw out a question that didn't vomit unpleasantly: "Why are you so ...... Generosity? ”

"Generosity? No, it's not generosity, it's called self-confidence. I believe that Baidu's attraction to people with creative power is also confident in Baidu's talent management system, which has the most free and relaxed management and the easiest platform for people with creative power to show their strengths.

Even those who innovate here have a lot less distractions and constraints than starting their own company. If you're just a person who is obsessed with technological innovation and has little interest in the business world, you'll find that Baidu is the best environment for free development in China. ”

If it weren't for the reborn, if it wasn't for Gu Mojie, who knew that he had a bright future, and faced this scene in the face of his previous life, maybe he would have to bow his head and bow down. However, at this moment, he will naturally seize this opportunity to ask some valuable questions, especially some questions that he has puzzled him for a long time and that only Boss Li can answer best.

"Mr. Li, your self-confidence really gives me a lot of encouragement, I have a few immature questions about the development of the Internet, I want you to solve your doubts, do you think it is convenient to answer now?"

"When I say it, it's just small talk." Boss Li smiled slightly and motioned for Gu Mojie to speak. In 03 years, he is still a CEO who insists on the front line of recruitment every year, not at all like 10 years later, because the company has grown into a behemoth, and the communication with unhired employees is handed over to HR to complete.

"Mr. Li, your Baidu has provided a search channel for Chinese people that is 'not the most accurate, but at least the most convenient and concise', and has succeeded in doing so.

So let's assume that if there are peers in the IT industry today who implement your idea in other segments, and put a market that originally pursued precision, perfection, but expensive software; It became available, simple, and the interface more intuitive and friendly – and, most importantly, free – and then, free of charge, it suddenly took over the vast majority of the market. Do you think this is likely to happen in the next few years? ”

Boss Li's face did not show the slightest surprise: "The world of the Internet is growing too fast, and there is nothing unusual about the situation you said." If you could narrow down the scope of the question, I think our conversation could be more targeted. ”

Gu Mojie gritted his teeth and decided to spit out a little dry goods:

"Well, let's narrow it down: this limitation is also based on the inspiration I got from yesterday's negotiation with Manager Liu. Let's assume that in the future, this breakthrough point will appear in the antivirus software market, that is, the emergence of a free antivirus software to occupy the current mountainous antivirus market. Do you think that's the case, and if that's the case, there's a good chance of it happening? ”

"It should ...... There is a lot of possibility, but doing so will also offend many people, if it weren't for the infamous hooligans in the industry, I'm afraid I wouldn't be willing to do this. What's more, the cost of investing in doing so is also very large, and whether it can succeed in the end depends entirely on luck. ”

When talking before, Gu Mojie kept his head down and looked at the coffee in his hand, but when Boss Li said this, he kept staring at the other party's eyes regardless of etiquette. He tried to see whether Boss Li had flickering eyes and hesitant tone, and he tried to capture whether the other party had any intention to cover up or lie.

As a result, he captured nothing. Either he is not experienced enough to see Boss Li's flaws, or Boss Li is really telling the truth.

He decided to take another gamble.

"Mr. Li, let's assume further - if there is a person today who can predict the future, he can clearly let you know that if you get such a free antivirus software, you will definitely be able to occupy most of the domestic market. Will you use this foreknowledge of the future to follow the trend? ”

From before he said this sentence to after he finished speaking, for a whole minute, Gu Mojie's eyes didn't blink. For normal people, not blinking for more than ten seconds is already the limit, not to mention that Gu Mojie is still a myopic eye with dry eyes.

"No, it won't." Gu Mojie was so prepared for the enemy, all he was waiting for was Boss Li's indifferent two-word answer.

"Why?" Gu Mojie has an illusion of traveling through time and space: Is there really a person in this world who disdains to follow the trend even if he predicts the future? He didn't believe it!
