Chapter 060: Year-end Closing Summary

Ye Hua also considered developing a virtual avatar exclusive to the shoreline company, such as Xiaoai's classmate of Xiaomi Technology, but this idea was quickly abandoned by him.

Because the newly developed avatar wants to meet the expectations of the mind, the probability of failure is as high as 90%.

After Hatsune Miku became popular around the world, many people also launched their own virtual singer projects, but all of them failed or became a niche.

Even a trailblazer like Cripton Future Media has launched other virtual singer projects, but they are also facing failure, and the rest of the company's virtual idols are all taking advantage of Hatsune Miku's popularity.

So far, there are only two virtual singers who have succeeded in this field, one is Hatsune Miku, and the other is Luo Tianyi in China.

Speaking of which, Luo Tianyi's birth road was also ill-fated, and he could have a bumpy road, and he almost went GG at one point.

If Ye Hua chooses to create a new image by himself, the risk is too great.

The success of Hatsune Miku is the result of more than 20 years spent by Hiroyuki Ito, the founder of Cripton Future Media, and the painstaking efforts of the time, place and people, to achieve today's "World's No. 1 Princess" to become popular all over the world.

Hatsune Miku's success has grown with the ACG culture, as well as with the growth of a generation of post-80s and 90s, so it can be said that Hatsune Miku's success cannot be replicated, and it is inevitable and unique.

As for the domestic Luo Tianyi being able to stand out, it is also a mirror copy of the development of Hatsune Miku, because when ACG culture was spreading and growing in China, it was really not possible to learn from it, so Luo Tianyi appeared, and it is also said that there is a "blood relationship" with Hatsune Miku, both of which are born based on Yamaha's VOCALOID engine.

So far, except for Luo Tianyi, other virtual singers in China have not been able to make a profit.

Although Ye Hua has the "money ability", it is indispensable to cultivate an IP that is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people and makes a group crazy about it, and this is precisely the field where the "money ability" plays the smallest role.

It takes time to accumulate and accompany a generation to grow up in order to create a successful IP image.

If Coastline wants to cultivate an avatar from scratch, it may not be able to reach Hatsune Miku's influence and popularity in ten years, or even as good as Luo Tianyi.

Moreover, making content itself is contrary to the genes of Shoreline Company, and a high-tech company is simply not doing its job properly to make entertainment content, and nine times out of ten it will be disgraced.

And winning Hatsune Miku is equivalent to winning the world's loyal fans of Hatsune, so why do you have to spend time, effort and money to cultivate by yourself.

Obviously, the merger and acquisition of Cripton Future Media is the king, this is the best stage for "money ability", and it is the wisest choice to attack its shortcomings with its own strengths.

……

As the end of the year approaches, the end of the year is getting closer.

Coastline Company's opening results this year, Ye Hua is already very satisfied.

The first is the business cooperation with Baofeng Technology, which can be said to be a key victory, which allows the company to successfully avoid various dangers and reefs laid by capital, and successfully get the first cooperation business without accepting VC venture capital, which also opens up a situation of tight funds.

The second business was a partnership with Walt Disney, with a single deal contract exceeding $15, and the success of this business also made the third business a natural fit.

And this third business is naturally several major domestic cinema companies, in the face of the general trend, they do not dare to swim against the current, this business is scientific and technological progress forced cinema companies to cooperate with the coastline.

If you can't put it down and don't go to the coastline for scientific and technological cooperation, then a large wave of capital will soon enter the market, and with the help of the technological advantages of the coastline, they will quickly defeat them and occupy the domestic film market share.

It can be said that the domestic cinema companies hate Ye Hua to death, there is no way, you can live without the coastline, and you will face the risk of being defeated by new competitors without other people's technology.

Enterprises are forced by technology, and they have no choice but to admit it.

Capital investors hate and love Ye Hua and Shoreline Technology Company, hate him for not sharing profits, and look at his ability to make money, but they are helpless, although capital is full of greed, and even unscrupulous. But it is also necessary to play according to the set rules of the game, some lines and some rules cannot be exceeded, especially in this land of flower growers.

Ye Hua himself is a cautious person, knowing that as long as he follows the national policy, the money he earns will be clean, and there is not much chance if someone wants to engage him in secret, and Ye Hua doesn't care about some petty fights.

It can be said that to do this, the only company that can really move the coastline is the country, but the real high-tech companies are all national treasures, not to mention the global wealth of high-tech products, what the country needs is such a company.

As the year progressed, Ye Hua spent the next few days managing the company's daily operations and management, and he also began to draw up an option pool for Coastline Technology.

As a company with the ambition to become a giant, it is inevitable that the establishment of option pools will share the surplus value with irreplaceable key employees or engineers.

It is impossible to develop healthily without sharing surplus value with employees, only talking about ideals with employees, and it is absolutely impossible to find excellent employees to work for the company, and there is no loyalty at all.

Ye Hua naturally will not let Coastline Technology have an exception at this level, in the establishment of the option pool, took out 10% of the Coastline Company's share, but the 10% equity is still controlled by Ye Hua, employees have the right to dividends after getting the option shares, but there is no right to vote, Ye Hua still has 100% absolute control over the company's equity.

At present, the company has 359 people, with the end of this year, there will not be many people who can get the company's option shares, and there will be more than a dozen people who will die to share the shares, which may be the company's highest interest reward for employees.

He Hao and his seven initial teams must be among them, and the sharing of option shares is also based on the distribution according to work, evaluation according to contribution, and adhere to the principle of more work, less work, and no work.

In the end, Ye Hua confirmed 11 people, including all members of the initial team, He Hao, Qianqing, and seven of them as veterans of coastline technology, they must be distributed on this basis, as for the rest of the company's employees, there is no option reward, which is not so easy to get, and the team's recognition and real contribution are indispensable.

Ye Hua is very cautious in the option reward, not that he picks it, but that the brainless sharing of benefits will not bring higher benefits to the company, and it will be counterproductive. Moreover, it is not easy to recover the shares of the employees in the future.

However, at the end of the year, employees who did not receive option awards all had a generous year-end bonus.

The coastline company has established a relatively mature and complete welfare system, and the company's employee ranks are divided into four major ranks from bottom to top: S1, S2, S3 and S4, and each major rank is divided into three levels.

The letter "S" is the beginning of Shoreline in English, after all, Ye Hua's positioning of the company is a multinational company, and the official website of the coastline company is https:///

The S1 rank is generally fresh graduates, with an annual salary of about 17-200,000 yuan and a year-end bonus of 60,000 yuan. S1.1 is classified as low-end positions, S1.2 is classified as undergraduates, and S1.3 is classified as graduate students.

Among the S2 ranks, S2.1 generally has a doctorate degree with an annual salary of about 200,000 yuan, and S2.2 is generally an engineer with an annual salary of about 200,000 yuan, which is higher than the treatment of S2.1 grade, and S2.3 is still an engineer, and this rank category already belongs to the backbone and employees of the company, with an annual salary of about 280,000 yuan.

S3 rank is the company's real senior core backbone members, S3.1 rank of employees belong to senior engineers, annual salary of more than 320,000 yuan; S3.2 of this level of employees are generally technical experts, annual salary of 50-750,000 yuan; S3.3 this rank belongs to the director level, annual salary of 60-900,000 yuan.

The last S4 is an expert-level, and employees who can mix to the S4 level within the coastline company are already standard successful people, with an annual salary of more than one million alone, and they can also get the company's option pool to share and participate in dividends.

It can be said that the salary standard of Coastline Company is basically on par with those well-known Internet giants in China, and it is naturally a company that countless job seekers want to come in to work.

At present, the total of 359 employees of the coastline company are mainly concentrated in the middle section, especially the S2.3 and S3.1 people, which can also be seen that if you want to get the offer of coastline technology, you must have real power.

Although the salary standards are basically the same as those Internet giants, they are almost as tiring as those Internet companies when they are hard, but compared to BAT, it is not too easy to work in a coastline company, at least Ye Hua is in line with the principle of trying not to work overtime if he can, and those Internet giants work overtime is the norm, and it is an indisputable fact that the salary is high and the work is hard.

In addition, the standard salary implemented by the coastline company is 150,000 yuan per year, but it usually gets an annual salary of 18-200,000 yuan, even in the low-end position of S1.1, it is a monthly income of more than 10,000 yuan.

The company's affairs are running stably according to the established plan, and at the end of the year, Ye Hua's other major event is to go home for the New Year, after so many years, this New Year is the one he is looking forward to the most.

In the past, because of the lack of success in my career, I was particularly afraid of the New Year every time I reached the end of the year.

As the saying goes, if you have money or not, you will go home for the New Year, what others think Ye Hua doesn't know, but he doesn't want to go back, and he doesn't even have the courage to go back, but he thinks so much, every time he has been so entangled at the end of the year in the past few years, it is very uncomfortable.

But now it's different.

In the past two months, Ye Hua has been focusing on another thing, that is, taking a driver's license.

After more than a month of hard training, I successfully got my driver's license, although I have very little time to drive, and as the boss of a large company, I generally have professional drivers.

But private life is more or less inconvenient, and it is still necessary to master driving skills.

With the passage of time, the end of the year is coming, Coastline Technology has completed a difficult and perfect ending this year, all employees of the company have received a generous year-end bonus, even the S1.1 level employees have also received a 50,000 year-end bonus, at the end of the year, everyone happily went home for the New Year.

Chinese New Year's Eve is approaching, Ye Hua suddenly feels like an arrow, this year more than ever want to go home urgently to see his parents, he has not been home for two years, if not this year, it will be three years.

Fortunately, there are only three things, not only do I have to go home this year, but I also want to give my family a big surprise, and I will not let my parents suffer anymore from now on.
