Song Chen said it humorously, and all the executives smiled: indeed, in order to avoid executives rushing for quick success and quick profits, and eager to achieve the company's profits, Song Chen likes to put this sentence on his lips the most, so that they don't have to worry about profits, but pay attention to the accumulation of "user experience", "technology" and "patents".

Even if Chenxing Network, 8848 and Ctrip.com, after the NASDAQ stock market crash, there are more and more criticisms from shareholders, and Song Chen is indeed under a lot of pressure. It's just that the influential SoftBank Group has been silent, so Song Chen doesn't need to worry about the pressure from the board of directors being transmitted to the management team.

Gaby? Newell laughed, "I see! ”

Song Chen pondered for a moment, and then said slowly: "Actually, the market for the online game version of "Counter-Strike" is indeed very large, if you change the way of operation...... It can not only make VA1VE and Chenxing Entertainment make money every day and become the world's top game developers and agents, but also change the pattern of the entire game industry! ”

"Hiss...... "Gabe? Newell gasped, and the rest of the executives were shocked.

What kind of elite approach will change the pattern of the entire game industry?

Song Chen thought for a while and laughed at himself: "It's just that in this way, for Chenxing Games, which focuses on game research, it is an unpredictable thing!" And as far as VA1ve is concerned, the equivalent of the online game version of Counter-Strike will kill the stand-alone version, which is obviously an unnecessary thing in the current situation! ”

Wang Xiaoxue asked curiously: "What kind of business method is so powerful?" ”

Song Chen smiled bitterly and spread his hands and said, "Free operation!" ”

"Free operation?" Chen Guangming was stunned, "How can a game business recover its investment?" ”

"yes!" Others are also confused.

"Provide value-added services within the game, just like the QQ show is to QQ!"

QQ Show is currently free to operate, so it is popular with QQ users around the world, and many people understand that QQ Show will be one of QQ's profit points! After the NASDAQ crash, investors were on a conference call. Many investors in the United States have proposed that Yao Hua let QQ Xiuquan Kuài adopt a fee system, but Yao Hua, who had already planned it, rejected it on the grounds that "the time is not right", which made investment institutions very angry.

The atmosphere froze for a moment, and then Gabe? Newell, Li Wei and Chen Guangming all gasped: where is the life of the stand-alone version of the online game version of "Half-Life", standing in the online game industry, it is simply the life of the free leather card system, even if it is not so strict, the free system is congenital more popular than the point card system.

Since Yang Zhiyuan and David? Since Ferro established Yahoo and historically created the "Yahoo model" of "content + advertising", free Internet services have been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. While cultivating countless Internet users around the world, it has also cultivated the taste of users, and the Internet as a whole lacks profitability.

The Nasdaq crash is essentially because the self-healing ability of capital caused by the overall loss of the Internet industry has made the stock price more likely to be the company's real assets, or even undervalued.

Although the free system will not necessarily make the point card system disappear, it is certain that it is more favored by consumers, especially Chinese consumers, after all, China's per capita consumption level is not as good as that of the United States, and even medium-sized countries are far away!

Although Chen Guangming feels that the method of "free + in-app purchase" has a lot of room for operation, but for now, "King of Kings" has provided unimaginable huge profits for Chenxing Games and Chenxing Entertainment, and there is no reason or need to launch a free system now.

So Chen Guangming shook his head and said: "Once the free system is launched." Both the technical and financial thresholds for online game companies have to be greatly reduced, so it is more beneficial for us to maintain the status quo! ”

Everyone else nodded, after all, the market for online games in China is far from being opened, and Chenxing Games and Chenxing Entertainment are vested interests. There is no need for them to raise the "banner of free" and break the existing pattern.

Gaby? Newell nodded and said, "I know what to do!" ”

He then stepped off the podium.

Song Chenchao ordered Fan Xue, who was sitting by the wall and quickly taking notes: "Ah Xue, turn on the lights!" ”

Fan Xue put down her upturned legs. Standing up and turning on all the lights and lanterns in the conference room, Song Chen squinted his eyes slightly as the bright lights illuminated the entire space. Glancing at all the heads of the subsidiaries present, he said in English: "I convened you for a meeting in the evening, in addition to understanding the performance of the subsidiary in the first quarter, the main thing is that I have something hesitant to discuss with you, and strive to come up with an agreed opinion tonight, and announce it tomorrow!" ”

All the executives straightened up, their expressions were solemn, and they listened intently to what Song Chen's hesitant thoughts were.

Eric? Schmidt vs. Zach, a black man? Royrieg glanced at each other, all of them showing worried eyes: after the NASDAQ stock crash, although Song Chen was ambitious and ready to carry the banner of "capital mergers and acquisitions", the rumors of layoffs have always hung like a shadow over the American company, making employees nervous.

Because Song Chen has never expressed his position, Eric? Schmidt, as the highest executive with full responsibility for the American company, is undoubtedly under the greatest pressure. Similarly, Zaqi, the human resources officer of the American Chenxing Holdings? Royriger also couldn't grasp Song Chen's thoughts, so since April when the Nasdaq crashed in April, the hiring efforts of American companies have basically stalled, which has further aggravated the shadow of uncertainty in employees' minds.

The question is: Will Song Chen implement a plan to shrink the company's expenses, including layoffs?

All the high-level executives looked at themselves with blazing eyes, Song Chen somewhat understood their thoughts and hidden worries, so he took a deep breath: "The impact of the NASDAQ stock market crash is far-reaching, the United States and the global economy will fall into uncertain turmoil for a long time, although the parent company has the funds to ensure that the subsidiary will be transfused in the case of annual performance losses, but because there is an established strategic plan, I intend to cut unnecessary expenses of all subsidiaries including the parent company, including meetings, reception, transportation, etc., and maintain the status quo of insurance and other benefits. The salary of all employees will be reduced by 1o3o% depending on the position and performance! ”

Zachi? Roy Rigg breathed a sigh of relief.

If only wages were adjusted instead of layoffs, the impact of the Nasdaq crash on the company would be minimized.

Eric? Schmidt saw that the expression of his Chinese colleague remained unchanged, as if he had known about it, but his heart sank suddenly, and he felt that Song Chen was a little favoritive. Considering the other party's background and the fact that he has been presiding over the work in China before, he is somewhat relieved.

Andrew, the chief financial officer of American Chenxing Holdings? Freeman also looked at the expressions of Zhai Yan and other Chinese colleagues, and he asked quietly: "Boss, what is the standard for salary adjustment?" ”

Seeing that it did not cause a backlash from the core high-level in the United States, Song Chen was also relieved, and he smiled: "There is no decision yet, but there is such an idea, so I want to ask your opinions before deciding whether to implement it or not!" ”

Andrew? Freeman glanced at Cai Chongxin, who was sitting opposite him, and said, "So, what about Mr. Cai's Jianyì?" ”

Seeing Freeman ask himself, Cai Chongxin muttered: "You can refer to the nature of the company, the importance of the position and the performance ability to determine the salary adjustment process, for example, the listed company has an option award for employees, the salary increase can be larger; The salary of administrative staff has also been rising in the past two years, which can be appropriately reduced; Part-time workers, such as cleaners, can be partially or completely reduced, and the work can be handed over to employees to improve the recognition and responsibility of the company! In addition, one of the company's welfare benefits, in terms of catering, due to the redundancy and waste of a certain amount of dù stored every day, it can be reasonably reduced! ”

Song Chen glanced at Cai Chongxin with a smile and teased: "Lao Cai, you are quite slippery!" ”

Cai Chongxin smiled and did not speak, and the other senior executives present were also silent, because Cai Chongxin mentioned so much, but did not mention the salary adjustment policy involving the management, which was tantamount to throwing the problem to Song Chen.

After all, this is the cheese that has moved the high-level, and it is the easiest to offend people, even if Cai Chongxin has an idea, he will not come up with his own ideas in front of so many people.

Fortunately, Song Chen also had his own ideas, so he didn't force Cai Chongxin to come forward to be this villain, but asked Eric? Schmidt and Andrew? Freeman: "Schmidt, Freeman, what do you think?" ”

Schmidt smiled: "Mr. Cai's construction is very good, I have no opinion!" ”

Seeing Song Chen, Andrew? Freeman pondered for a moment and said: "Compared with salary, in fact, the backbone above the grassroots level cares more about the company's option awards, and the boss's salary adjustment is not large, so the impact on the company will not be great, even if it is dissatisfied, it is still within the burden!" ”

Andrew? Freeman also didn't want to be this villain, but he hinted at the bottom line of the higher-ups, which was option rewards! On this basis, Song Chen's salary adjustment plan will not let professional managers suffer too much loss at all!

Song Chen thought about it for a long time before he said to Cai Chongxin: "This matter is not in a hurry, take advantage of the fact that this summit will be held for three days, during this time, I hope you will discuss the salary adjustment plan, and then I will choose a suitable time to announce it to all employees of the company in the form of an open letter!" ”

"Got it!"

goog1e is still waiting for the recognition of the market, Baidu is eager for the explosion of Chinese Internet users, and Chenxing Entertainment is brewing the agent of "Legend of Blood...... Among the many companies that can bring a lot of cash to the parent company in the near future, in addition to Chenxing Entertainment, there is Chenxing Technology, which is ready to deploy "iPod"!

And it is necessary to get ahead of Apple's Jobsb flagship, and fight a crucial time difference even if it is only a few months!

So he looked at the man and said, "Fadel, when will you surprise me?" ”

was suddenly named by Song Chen, Tony, the executive officer of Chenxing Technology, who was originally thoughtful? Fadel was stunned for a moment, and then smiled:

"Boss, we're ready!" (To be continued.) For mobile phone users, please go to M. to read. )
