Chapter 32 Huaguo Branch
Everyone has a similar background, and in the same unfamiliar environment, the first half of the year has experienced a lot of changes, and there will be a lot to talk about.
After chatting about it, Zhou Xin also said the main purpose of his meeting with Cao Yongluo this time:
"Lao Cao, have you used our company's products?"
"I used it, I also bought Angry Birds, and it was very distinctive.
Fun is relative.,The most important thing is to be distinctive.,Compared with other games, it's easy and very interesting.,Is it possible to change it to a pig and a bird?
I always feel that the red bird is cheaper than the green-skinned pig. ”
Zhou Xin laughed: "Have you seen our electronic community?"
There are a lot of players in the Angry Birds section who think similarly to you. ”
Cao Yongluo nodded and said, "I've seen it."
The expressions inside are also very creative, basically a lot of emotions that cannot be described in words, and they can be accurately expressed directly with expressions. ”
Zhou Xin said directly: "Then you should know that there will be administrators and auditors between each section of the electronic community." ”
"Yes."
"In addition to these, there are also people who post specially.
In other words, post posts that can attract netizens.
We call them irrigation workers internally.
For example, a post said that my father-in-law changed three wives.
Another post says that I have changed three mothers-in-law this year. But it's not that I'm good, it's my father-in-law who is good.
Which post do you find more appealing to you? “
"The one in the back."
"Yes, a great irrigation person knows how to accurately drip irrigation, and he only needs to post a post to spark a lot of user discussion.
is also an irrigation person, and some need to rely on quantity, such as making dozens of posts. ”
Cao Yongluo suddenly realized: "No wonder your electronic community has such a high degree of popularity.
Not just because you have a first-mover advantage, but because you've hired people to produce a steady stream of content.
Content is the key to user retention in an e-community. ”
"Yes, you got to the point.
But the problem now is that as there are more and more users, more users mean that the number of interesting content published by users will grow rapidly.
But there is also a need for posters to contribute content in less active sections.
You know that Americacan's labor is expensive.
And there are very few people with similar abilities.
Our needs are great, and there are very few people who can meet them.
So I want to put this piece in China.
This means setting up a branch office in China that will be responsible for posting on the Riot Games digital community, managing community content, and doing some moderation work.
This is an industry that does not exist at the moment, and I need someone who is capable enough to help me in the Huaguojian branch.
Not only in China, but even in Ameriken, there is no similar industry.
If you have to find a target, it's a bit like the author of a story club.
But the author of the story club, he is not capable of managing a company well, let alone building a company from scratch.
I don't have any connections in Huaguo, so I would like to ask you if you have any similar candidates, or if you know any headhunting companies in Huaguo that are good enough to help me find the right people. ”
In the early stage, Huaguo Branch only recruited posters to reduce labor costs.
But in the long run, Zhou Xin needs to have a team to return to China in the future, as well as a tentacle to invest and merge in China in the future.
Therefore, the founders who helped him set up the company in China were crucial.
Cao Yongluo fell into deep thought: "I want to ask what kind of treatment you can offer?" ”
Zhou Xin said: "500,000 RMB, half of which is a fixed salary, the other half is floating performance, and there is an additional 200,000 as an excess reward, and the excess reward part will set a target for him at the beginning of each year."
That is to say, the salary is divided into three parts, 25+25+20, performance and excess rewards can be written into the contract, there will be a clear provision, there will not be too much room for ambiguity.
I can give you the bottom line, which is that I just met with Mr. Bill Gates yesterday, and he was willing to buy Riot Games for $500 million.
I didn't say yes, but I would accept Microsoft's investment.
At least don't worry financially.
At the same time, Riot Games is already profitable. ”
Cao Yongluo swallowed his saliva, this salary was definitely a high salary in Huaguo in 1998.
The executives of some large multinational companies in China take about the same number.
(Based on the annual income of New York University law graduates in 1998 at $91,000, employees of New York's Big Four accounting firms earned more than $30,000 a year when they first joined the company.) )
"RMB or USD?" He made a joke.
"At present, I can only provide RMB as the unit of remuneration, and there is a possibility that it will be denominated in US dollars in the future."
"I'll go back to help you inquire about the Chinese New Year, do you have any more specific requirements?"
"No, this person is really hard to find, and my requirements will be very non-standardized.
Unlike accounting, auditing, and finance, he has a set of internationally accepted standards.
It's an industry like never before, and he needs to have his first person at the helm.
You help me sift through some resumes for me, and I choose the right ones from them.
If you are not available or do not know each other, you can introduce me to the relevant headhunting company.
The specific interview will be conducted online first, and then I will come out for a return ticket, and the other party will come to Los Angeles offline once.
If you help me find the right person, I will give you a sum of 10% of the person's annual salary, which is 70,000 RMB.
Don't be too busy saying no. ”
Zhou Xin saw Cao Yongluo waving his hand and added:
"I will have a lot of things to trouble you in the future, this is an exchange of interests, although we are friends, but we can't let you help in vain.
Friendship that is simply given cannot last.
And 70,000 RMB is just a small amount to me now. ”
Zhou Xin's words persuaded the other party, and Cao Yongluo did not refuse: "Okay."
I am very impressed by the remuneration you offered, 700,000 RMB, which is comparable to the salary of McKinsey executives in China.
With such a high salary, there must be someone willing to come.
I'll help you find it.
It's going to be top talent. ”
In fact, there is really someone in Zhou Xin's heart who is suitable for this, he knows the other party, but the other party doesn't know him.
That was the founder of the later goose factory, Pony.
As a top community product manager and a top entrepreneur, it's not an exaggeration to say that you can do this with your hands.
There is another reason, that is, Zhou Xin wants to find some people with enough energy, and the energy behind Xiao Ma is not enough.
Only someone with enough energy will be able to help him get involved in the establishment of SMIC two years later.
