Chapter 63 Three-Gear Standards
Gu Fan looked at the date, today is July 2nd.
"The Legend of Destiny Wolong" was released on June 30, and the game of Reverse Heaven just paid its June salary on June 28.
Of course, except for Su Tong, an old employee who directly participated in the development of "Sisyphus" and "Heavenless Cube", so there is a bonus, and the other new employees get a basic salary.
Of course, Gu Fan is also very clear about this: "Normally, salaries and bonuses should be paid on the 26th of this month.
"But considering that this is the first money-making game after everyone came to the company, I decided to wait for the first income of "The Legend of Destiny of Heaven" to arrive this Friday, and then I will pay a bonus first.
"After that, the salary and bonus will be paid uniformly on the last Friday of each month."
Xiao Mingyu hurriedly nodded: "Okay, Mr. Gu!" ”
At this time, she was already a little shocked, can the boss be so anxious about such a thing as a bonus? Can't even wait a month?
Mr. Gu really has a clear mind and is different.
So, according to what criteria? 10%? Xiao Mingyu asked.
She also has a certain understanding of the game industry, and knows that for most game companies, giving 10% of their profits to give bonuses to employees is already very generous and rare in the industry.
As for the rest of the money?
The bulk of the money will definitely still be invested in new projects, and the rest of the money will either be used for company operations and welfare, or the boss will stuff it into his own pocket.
Gu Fan said seriously: "This is very good, you can remember it."
"25% of the net profit of each game is used for the company's operating expenses. The money is mainly used for two purposes: the first is the bonus of all the employees involved in the development of the game, and the second is the company's daily expenses and benefits, such as rent, office computers, etc.
"Remember, 25 percent, you can't go wrong."
Xiao Mingyu was a little speechless and a little puzzled.
Speechless because, she is a top student in the Department of Finance of Imperial Capital University, can a simple 25% be wrong? Mr. Gu doesn't even need to emphasize this kind of thing.
And the puzzling reason is, why does it have to be such a very accurate figure as 25%? Can't you go up and down at all?
Seeing Xiao Mingyu's expression, Gu Fan couldn't explain too much.
What can he say? Because the contract I signed with Lilith says 25%? That's not like words.
This thing can't float either, and if it causes a default, then the calf will be finished, and I won't be able to see the sun tomorrow.
In short, Xiao Mingyu silently wrote it down: "Okay, 25%, I remembered."
"So Mr. Gu, how should the first and second expenses be distributed?
"Personally, I understand that the second item should be guaranteed first, that is, after deducting the company's daily expenses and welfare measures for employees, the rest will be used as the first item, that is, giving bonuses to everyone, right?
"So should we consider improving the company's office environment and employee benefits?
"After all, our company is currently a company with at least a few million dollars in monthly turnover, and it's a bit strange to be stuck in a café."
Gu Fan shook his head: "Wrong! You're saying the opposite.
"The first priority should be guaranteed, that is, the first consideration is to give employees as many bonuses as possible. As for the company's day-to-day expenses, there are also employee benefits...... The more you save, the better! As for how much it can be saved...... It's up to you as the CFO.
"Of course, this savings must be within the limits of the law."
Xiao Mingyu was shocked again: "Huh? ”
Gu Fan didn't like her like she hadn't seen the world very much: "Ah, what, just count it according to this." ”
"The Legend of Destiny of Wolong" currently brings 3.27 million profits to Antiheaven Games, which is 817,500 according to 25% calculation.
Assuming that there are no employee benefits, and the daily expenses are still calculated according to the current minimum standard, the rent on the second floor of this café is only 5,000 yuan per month...... As for the office computers of employees, they have been bought before, and they do not need to be upgraded or replaced in a short time.
Doesn't that mean that at least 800,000 can be used to give bonuses to employees!
Xiao Mingyu felt that his CPU was a little burned, not because the numbers were too complicated, but because the way the money was spent was too magical.
Gu Fan continued: "As for the specific amount of each employee......
In this way, we simply divide employees into three different "contribution files" according to their contributions.
"The third gear is the 'diligent file', that is, to complete his job like an old scalper.
"The second level is the 'core file', that is, the core work responsible for development or the company's important business, the team leaders of several of your main departments are counted in this file, or ordinary employees with outstanding work performance can also be counted in this file.
"The first file is a 'special file', that is, it played a special role in the popularity of the game, such as the video of Su Tong's five-even dragon flapping its wings.
"If it's a special file, there has to be at least one person.
"The bonus coefficient for the diligent file is 1, the bonus coefficient for the core file is 2, and the bonus coefficient for the special file is 4.
"Just according to this coefficient, just send all the money. At present, there are nine employees in the company, and I am not counted. ”
This algorithm is very clear, Xiao Mingyu quickly went through it, but in the process of doing so, he found new problems.
The best one is obviously the "core file", probably because the current company is relatively small, so there are the most people in this file. Su Tong, the leader of the test team, Guo Hongyu, the head of the art team, and Xiao Mingyu, the chief financial officer, undoubtedly belong to this category.
But what about the two programmers, Feng Hui and Zhao Haiquan, and the executive planner Zhou Yang?
Who counts as the program leader? Who counts as the planning team leader?
Strictly speaking, they are not counted, because it is Gu Fan who leads the development of the program, and it is Gu Fan who submits the plan, Feng Hui and Zhao Haiquan can only be regarded as ordinary senior programmers, and Zhou Yang can only be called a standard miscellaneous planner.
Wouldn't it be a bit far-fetched to count the three of them as core files?
But then again, Xiao Mingyu felt that it was quite far-fetched to calculate the core file for himself, after all, he basically didn't do any work as the financial director, at most, he paid everyone a basic salary, and the company had no procurement and no other business activities.
She already gets a salary of more than 20,000 yuan a month, and even she is a little embarrassed to get a bonus.
But if you want to say that, Guo Hongyu, the head of the art team, doesn't seem to have done much work......
Probably the only thing that isn't controversial is the three testers.
They must have taken the lowest "diligence file".
But if it is placed in other companies, they can't even get this file, after all, the tester's job is to find bugs, and they haven't even tested the major bug of "Wolongce nesting".
Although this bug turned out to be a benign bug and made the game profitable, it was not a reason to reward them!
Xiao Mingyu didn't expect that he, the financial director, would encounter difficulties in such a place.
Other CFOs are trying to deduct the bonuses that everyone deserves in a reasonable way.
It's better for her to find a way to give out the bonus that everyone deserves in an unreasonable way?
That's outrageous!
After a moment of silence, Xiao Mingyu said with some difficulty: "Mr. Gu, in all fairness, you account for at least eighty percent of the success of this game, so even if you don't pay bonuses, I think it's quite reasonable......
"Don't get me wrong, I'm not slapping you on the back, I'm just telling the truth......"
Xiao Mingyu felt that his speech at this time was a bit too thief, but this is the case!
Gu Fan smiled and didn't say anything.
Do you think I don't want to put all my money in my pocket? But that hateful Lilith is condemned to death in the contract, and I can only take 5%, even if I save the money, it doesn't make any sense! It's better to send it out and use the money to buy a favor.
As for how much of this favor can be recovered from the employee? Then let it be, it's better than staying in Lilith's company anyway.
Thinking of this, Gu Fan made a decision directly.
"That's it, Su Tong, you, Feng Hui, Zhao Haiquan, Guo Hongyu, Zhou Yang, you team leaders are all counted according to the second gear.
"The three testers are counted according to the third gear.
"As for the first gear this time...... If you have to give it to one person, then give it to Zhao Haiquan.
"He's in charge of fake-AI tuning, and he can be regarded as doing his best, otherwise it wouldn't have been so good.
"Calculate how much each person has."
