Volume 1 Chapter 598 Waiting for the Price to Sell
In the next few days, Ye Qiu kept holding meetings with Eliza Moon, Shirley Sandberg, and the heads of various departments of Ye Technology to discuss a series of matters related to the company's internal reform, especially the reform of the management model.
After all, with the presentation of Ye Technology's leading position in the smartphone market, as long as people with a little bit of knowledge, it is not difficult to see the potential problems of Ye Technology in the future.
For the reform of the management model, the executives basically gave a positive answer, after all, Ye Technology used to encourage innovation, but what Ye Qiu is doing now is to further flatten the company's management on the basis of the past, and further encourage employees to actively innovate according to their own interests and hobbies.
But the details of the reform are a question.
The two companies that are most talked about by the outside world in terms of management are Amazon, which is known for its two-pizza culture.
Jeff Bezos, the founder of Amazon, proposed the two-pizza rule, that is, when there is a meeting, the number of people cannot be so large that two pizzas are not enough for them to eat, because he believes that the more people in the meeting, the more people there are, it is not good.
In the same way, when measuring the size of a team, they also use two pizzas as a measure, that is, when two pizzas can't feed a project team, the team is too big and has to be split in two.
Depending on the size of two pizzas, a group of about six or seven people is most suitable.
This is somewhat coercive, and at the same time a bit excessive and even stubborn in pursuit of small teams deliberately taken by the initiative, in fact, after several years of development, Amazon has indeed become one of the most important high-tech companies in the world, but in terms of innovation ability, he does not have too eye-catching things.
There is another company, Google, which has always been a company that advertises free work, but in fact, this is an impossible utopian dream, office politics, and the struggle between various departments, which have become some important issues in Google's internal management.
So much so that many people say that Google is no longer the startup it used to be, but has become a bloated, faltering hierarchical organization that ostensibly encourages employees to innovate, but in reality, the areas that concern their core business have become very bureaucratic.
For example, 05 years by Google acquired aI1 company, this company is a mobile service provider, specializing in providing users to send text message services to locate the location, after being acquired by Google, on the one hand, it is mandatory to integrate the company's products into Google's internal infrastructure, which makes the company's services unrecognizable, and whenever they make even the slightest change in the function, it needs to go through several levels of leadership approval to complete.
The same situation also appears in some other companies that have been acquired by Google, at the beginning of the acquisition, they are hello, hello, everyone, but soon, they face the end of being forcibly integrated.
At the same time, Google is notoriously dismissive of the value of talent, otherwise there would be a joke that Page and Brin are out to sea on a yacht, lying on deck, basking in the sun, smoking cigars, holding pictures of employees, proudly saying that someone is the general manager of a multinational conglomerate, has an NHA degree from Harvard University, but is now working at Google at a low-level job with no technical content.
This has to be said about one of the principles that Google hires people, which is that they only hire smart people because they encourage innovation.
Everyone knows that this is actually a concept of stealing.
Of course, Google's salary is indeed very high, and the company is well treated, but this does not mean that Google's internal management is good.
When Ye Qiu held a meeting with the company's senior executives, he repeatedly emphasized the value of talents, and the further liberalization of the company's management, so that everyone can freely engage in all kinds of research according to their own interests, but this does not mean that Ye Technology will follow the route of Amazon or Google.
In Ye Qiu's statement, the management of Ye Technology should still be based on the principle of moderation.
In other words, it is necessary to further unleash the creativity of employees and give each player the freedom to decide what he or she wants to do, but this needs to be based on the premise that it does not affect his or her own work and the development of the company.
If everyone goes to what they are interested in, who will do the company's business?
Therefore, there must also be a set of transparent and fair management model, after all, if you take too laissez-faire practices, then the most lazy will become lazy, and everyone will become lazy, so the company needs to have a transparent and fair performance evaluation model, as well as a set of appropriate management model.
In Ye Qiu's conception, it is to give employees more free space and time to do what they like to do, and the company gives maximum support to employee innovation, not only allowing you to do it during working hours, but also giving you resources and human and financial resources to help you do it, and more importantly, allowing you to make mistakes.
Any employee can freely choose to set up a research project that he is interested in after completing his own work and the project arranged by the company, or join someone else's research project, and in order to mobilize the enthusiasm of employees for innovation, the company will also give employees some generous rewards in return according to their inventions, creations and returns to the company.
But all of this is built on a set of basic management models of the company.
People in any place and any country in the whole world are the same, and they need to be managed, especially for a company with 20,000 employees, if it loses management, the company will completely collapse, so self-discipline and discipline must complement each other, and there will be no freedom without discipline, this is the principle of moderate freedom conceived by Ye Qiu.
Another point is that Ye Qiu wants to create a completely open and transparent management system for all people in the company, that is, who is punished or who is rewarded, as well as the progress of each project, the performance of each employee and the degree of contribution, etc., will appear on the internal management platform, and everyone can see it clearly.
This is a big project, all the people who participated in this meeting know that the road, but if this big project is done well, it will further stimulate the creativity and innovation ability within the leaf technology, to know that the leaf technology has become the most popular high-tech enterprise in the world in the past two years, and now continue to reform the internal management, it is bound to further attract more talents and entrepreneurs to join, after all, they can get strong support from other large companies in the leaf technology.
However, there is actually a problem with Ye Qiu's promotion, which was proposed to Ye Qiu by Eliza O Moon and Shirley Sandberg after the meeting, that is, the management.
To put it bluntly, the so-called principle of moderate freedom is the same as the moderate openness of the Android system, and the reason why the Android system adopts moderate openness is because in the end, the core power is in the hands of Ye Technology, which determines the future and fate of the Android system, and no other licensees can challenge this authority.
And the same is true of moderate freedom, the management decides everything about the company, if the management is not good, or if there is a problem, then the future of the company will also face collapse, especially for Ye Qiu to set up a subsidiary for the purpose of self-attack and subversion, which is too dangerous.
But Ye Qiu thought very clearly, whether it is the internal moderately free personnel management model, or self-attack, if you decentralize power, or decentralize, such as going public, or attracting some other shareholders, it is impossible to succeed, because whether it is a listing or the introduction of shareholders, you must ensure their interests, that is, to ensure the company's existing income and interests.
It is impossible for Microsoft to carry out self-attacking innovation, for the simple reason that as soon as this innovation appears, Microsoft shareholders will be the first to shoot it, because it will lead to the disappearance of all the benefits they now reap from Microsoft, and who will give up such a big piece of fat?
Only when Ye Zi Technology is Ye Qiu's property can he do this, and he must ensure that the entire management of the company can implement his ideas and concepts, because this is a top-down guidance and reform.
Therefore, for the selection and appointment and dismissal of the management, Ye Qiu appointed Eliza Moon, who believes that an attitude should be adopted to ensure that the company's internal reform can be sustained.
When Ye Qiu started a vigorous wave of internal management reform on Ye Technology, there was no wind outside, no one knew that there was a big change that would affect Ye Technology in the next few decades, and everyone was just paying attention to the latest ultrabook announced by Ye Technology.
UU launched Zeus mobile phones, 09 tablets were launched, and now in 10 years, Ye Technology began to release news to the outside world, and the next thing the company will focus on is a transformable touch ultrabook.
This product will use the Android system, the shape is very thin, the screen is larger than the tablet, up to thirteen inches, this is also to further draw a line with the tablet, after all, the current tablet with peripherals, also has some ultrabook functions, so the touch screen of the ultrabook of leaf technology will be relatively large, and a larger screen may even be launched in the future.
In the news released by Ye Technology, the most concerned is a series of huge changes made by the Android system after entering the field of ultrabook, such as touch visualization, that is, when you click on the screen, a gray dot will flash, so that you can clearly see which area you clicked, which is necessary for large-screen touch, of course, users can also choose whether they want this design or not.
There is also the screen to display a multitasking interface at the same time, which is the so-called APp windowing, which can ⊥ you do multiple things on the touch screen at the same time, which are obviously some of the measures to further pCf the Android system, and this has also proved to be a series of major innovations of Ye Technology to challenge Microsoft.
In addition, there are some small innovations, such as the left and right arrow keys will appear on the keyboard, which is to facilitate text input, after all, Ye Technology also has its own Offt software, and it is also free.
Judging from the series of innovations announced by Ye Technology, it is obvious that this ultrabook is to be positioned as a large screen for touch experience, rather than the P extension that Microsoft has been claiming in the past year or two, because the latter will be dominated by Microsoft, and the former is Ye Technology's absolute initiative and advantage.
Therefore, when the major innovation of Leaf Technology was announced, it immediately caused an uproar in the world, and almost everyone believed that as long as Leaf Technology launched an ultrabook, Microsoft would be a complete failure in the notebook field, because in the promotion of Leaf Technology, the ultrabook will also be integrated with mobile phones and tablets, and can share the applications and resources in the Android store.
With this big weight and sharp weapon, Ultrabook has a foothold.
What's more, the design of the ultrabook has made everyone see the disruptive innovation that is eye-catching, that is, the screen interface adopts a tile mode similar to the previous life NR, with a flat design, and the appearance is to abandon the RFA design of Microsoft in the previous life that Ye Qiu admired before, and adopts a 180-degree flip design similar to the Dell Xp in the previous life, allowing the ultrabook to switch back and forth between the notebook and the tablet
This is also a decision within Ye Technology, originally Ye Qiu planned to use the appearance design of RFA, but another group of people made another design, and everyone thought that the latter was better, so they adopted this design.
Although the 180-degree flip design is a bit similar to Dell, the design of the entire notebook is all from Jonathan O Ivey's handwriting, the appearance of the ultra-thin design is very beautiful, beautiful and natural, and the use of the system is also very smooth, supporting ten-point touch of both hands, which is also a new patented technology of Leaf Technology.
In addition to these eyeballs that are enough to attract attention, in addition to the major innovations that satiate the appetite of consumers, Zeus Ultrabook is very satisfactory in terms of performance, running smoothness, touch sensitivity, etc., and then Leaf Technology will continue to announce these advantages, and CP Dam is a processor with a new architecture specially tailored for Intel's ultrabook, and there are also some patented technologies of Leaf Technology in terms of battery, which ensures battery life.
Although the price and parameters of the Zeus Ultrabook have not yet been announced, only a few major innovations have been announced, and this new product has caused huge repercussions and attention in the world.
According to the plan of Ye Technology, this product will be officially launched in January 20ll, and in the next six months, Ye Technology will also carry out publicity and marketing activities for this new product and several other products that will also be launched in January of ll year, and strive to achieve global synchronous listing.
When Ye Qiu was vigorously pulling out the Yezi technology reform in the United States and launching an attack on Microsoft, Manchester United won the second Champions League title of Ferguson's career at the Bernabeu Stadium Uj Mourinho's Inter Milan.
With the end of the Champions League, the transfer market in Europe has also begun to unfold in full swing, especially for some local tyrant teams who are aiming to introduce superstars, it is relatively late to enter the transfer market.
After Manchester City sacked Mark Hughes, Mancini has been in charge for half a year and has performed quite satisfactorily, so the summer transfer will be carried out exactly according to Mancini's wishes, while the Italian will revamp the current Manchester City squad.
At the back, Robinho wants to bring in a left-back, while in midfield he wants Real Madrid's Van der Vaart, as well as Roma's De Rossi, and Aston Villa's James Milner, who performed well last season, are all hot top names in the transfer market, while in the forward line, Robinho is leaving, and Mancini is looking at Aguero at Atletico Madrid.
Manchester City's investment this season will continue, because it is said that Mancini promised the board management that as long as he continues to invest more and bring in the players that the team needs, he will lead Manchester City to the top four in the league in the new season, after all, he led the team to win the League Cup last season and made a good start.
In addition to Manchester City, West Ham United are also looking to restructure, Ranieri is not very happy with Berbatov and wants to bring in another quality scorer, including Inter Milan's Milito, Real Madrid's Higuain, Valencia's Villa, and Atletico Madrid's Sergio Aguero, but the first choice is Tottenham Hotspur's top scorer Falcao.
The Colombian centre-forward became last season's European Golden Boot winner and is the hottest top centre-forward in football today, with high interest from teams including Real Madrid, West Ham United, Newcastle and Liverpool, but Tottenham Hotspur has always refused to negotiate a transfer for Falcao, repeatedly saying that the player is not for sale.
Originally, there was another center forward who attracted much attention, that is, Liverpool's Torres, but with the entry of the Indian consortium and the retention of Benitez, Liverpool is also trying to retain Torres, and at the same time will come up with real money to further strengthen the team's squad, it is said that Benitez has opened a transfer list, and his most important frontcourt reinforcements, the number one target is Tottenham Hotspur's David Silva.
The Spaniard used to be Benitez's target for reinforcements, but he rejected Liverpool at the time, but now the situation is completely different, Liverpool now have enough financial resources to build a more competitive team and squad, in this case, Benitez's desire to poach David Silva has resurfaced.
There is also news that Benitez wants to bring in Robinho from Manchester City, but the Brazilian international has repeatedly expressed his reluctance to stay in England, and once Robinho can't get it, I heard that Benitez will specialize in Bayern Munich's Robben.
Newcastle, another local tyrant team in the Premier League, under the leadership of England's local coach Redknapp, returned to the Premier League with a transfer budget of 200 million euros in the first year, and wanted to introduce players including Drogba, Ibrahimovic, David Dia, Falcao and other superstars, and strive to stay in the Premier League in the first season.
With a number of local tycoons targeting Tottenham Hotspur, coupled with traditional giants such as Real Madrid on the sidelines, Tottenham Hotspur fans are guessing, I wonder if the team will bleed again this summer, and whether it will affect the team's combat effectiveness.
In fact, after Ye Qiu returned to London from the United States, he gave instructions to Peternien on the transfer operation, and he was waiting for the price to sell.
That's what he's been doing with Tottenham Hotspur, there's no player you can't sell, it's a matter if you can convince me of the chips and the price.
