Countercurrent 1982

Chapter 1359
When Duan Yun came to Huawei again, he found that there was no change here. There was a sign of Huawei on the door of the two simple rooms, but an iron anti-theft door was added to the door, which was still very old and simple.

"Who are you?" After Duan Yun pressed the doorbell, the iron door was opened from the inside, and a man wearing biceps and glasses poked his head out, glanced at Duan Yun, and asked suspiciously.

"I'm a friend of your manager, what about others?" Duan Yun asked with a smile.

"He didn't come back after going out in the afternoon, why don't you come in first and wait." Seeing Duan Yun's suit and leather shoes, the young man hastily opened the door and let Duan Yun in.

Just as soon as he entered the house, a heat wave mixed with the smell of sweat hit his face.

Compared with the last time Duan Yun came here, there are two more rows of computers in the room. It looks like the kind of black Internet cafe opened in the village in later generations. A floor fan is added to the room. The temperature still can't circulate out, and it looks very stuffy.

Everyone in the room was wearing a vest or simply shirtless and sitting in front of the computer, with teacups placed in front of their respective desks, each with a focused expression and skillfully operating the computer.

"Duan... Manager Duan!?" A person sitting in the front row immediately recognized Duan Yun, and stood up in surprise.

"It's really Manager Duan!"

When the others saw this, they also stopped what they were doing, and surrounded her with gracious expressions. Some moved a stool for her, some poured water for him, and some took an ashtray, showing great enthusiasm.

In the eyes of young entrepreneurs in Shenzhen, Duan Yun is their idol, and Huawei itself is also a holding company of Tianyin Group, so Duan Yun can also be regarded as their boss.

"Don't be too busy, I'll just ask where is your manager Ren?" Duan Yun took the water glass and put it on the table, then asked.

"Manager Ren went out in the afternoon and hasn't come back." One of the men wearing black-rimmed glasses glanced at his watch and said, "But it's almost time for dinner, so I guess he has come out of the vegetable market now." , be right back."

"Food market?" Duan Yun was taken aback when he heard this.

"Manager Duan, we are usually the manager Ren who cooks for us..."

"Didn't I say that there was a young man in charge of cooking when I came last time?"

"That colleague has already been poached by another company, and Manager Ren is also reluctant to hire a cook, so he buys vegetables for us and cooks for us every day." One of them said.

"So that's the case." Duan Yun suddenly understood when he heard the words.

Huawei is still in the start-up stage. Although it has received 100 million yuan from Duan Yunna before, the amount of money is far from enough for the research and development of CNC switches. In order to spend every penny to On the cutting edge, Ren Zhengfei can save as much as he can.

"Manager Duan smokes!" The young man with black-rimmed glasses took out a pack of cigarettes from the desk drawer and handed it to Duan Yun.

"Are you new here? What's your name? I didn't seem to see you when I came to this company last time?" Duan Yun asked after taking the cigarette.

"I came here at the beginning of the year. My name is Guo Ping." The young man with glasses replied respectfully.

"Guo Ping... are you the vice chairman of Huawei?" Duan Yun said in surprise, as if he suddenly remembered something.

Anyone who is familiar with Huawei knows that the high-level executives of Huawei in the future market are basically technical backgrounds. Several of them started their business with Ren Zhengfei when Huawei was just established, and this Guo Ping is one of them.

In the earliest Huawei team, Ren Zhengfei used various contacts and means to dig up several technical talents with just one mouth, including Xu Wenwei, who graduated from Southeast University with a master's degree, and Guo Ping, a graduate student at Huazhong University of Science and Technology.

Guo Ping was born in 1966 and graduated from East China University of Science and Technology with a master's degree. He joined Huawei in early 1988, yes.One of the earliest Huawei start-up team members.

And it is precisely by virtue of these young elites that Ren Zhengfei finally successfully developed the switch chip model SD502, and it was a genre success, which was very difficult in those days. high strength.

"Vice-chairman?" Gao Ping was taken aback when he heard the words, and quickly said, "I'm not the vice-chairman. I'm now Huawei's product development project manager."

"Ah... slip of the tongue, slip of the tongue." Duan Yun smiled and changed the subject: "How did you come to Huawei in the first place?"

"I am now an intern at the Research Institute of East China University of Science and Technology. The former manager went to our college. After learning about my situation from our supervisor, he talked to me. I think Manager Ren is a very passionate entrepreneur. So I followed him to the company for an internship..." Guo Ping said.

"I see..." Hearing this, Duan Yun nodded.

Among the private enterprise bosses Duan Yun knew who came to Shenzhen to start a business, Ren Zhengfei is undoubtedly the most friendly one. Salary, convincing some young elites to join his company team, and also regard it as an idol, this is not something that ordinary people can do.

As the saying goes, a hero comes from his mouth.

A keen mind, rich experience and good eloquence can be said to be the necessary qualities for an entrepreneur to succeed. Even if some people do not have much capital, they can still make many people follow them with their mouths. It has to be said that it is a kind of talent and ability.

The next moment, Duan Yun stood up and walked to the next room.

"Manager Duan, it's a bit messy inside..." Seeing that Duan Yun was about to enter the next room, Guo Ping quickly said in embarrassment.

"They're all old men, why are you embarrassed? I'm not your target." Duan Yun smiled, then opened the door and entered the next room.

The moment he opened the door, Duan Yun was taken aback by the scene in front of him. In a house of just over 20 square meters, seven or eight wooden beds with bunk beds were placed side by side, and all the windows were nailed together. It's like the Datong bunk where migrant workers slept in the early construction site.

In the entire room, there was only a writing desk with a tape recorder on it, and a row of clothes hangers near the window, which displayed the freshly washed clothes. Other than that, there was nothing else, which looked very simple.

This kind of living environment is not even as good as the dormitory for the employees of Duanyun Electronics Factory. It is hard to imagine that a company with a market value of hundreds of billions in the future will be so shabby and simple in its initial stage.

However, in stark contrast to this humble environment, these young people from Huawei seem to be working very hard and passionately.

After chatting with Gao Ping for a few words, Duan Yun learned that it was common practice for these company members to engage in research and development day and night for several months, and they lived, ate, slept and slept in the company.

According to Ren Zhengfei, to succeed, it all depends on the sacrifice spirit of the employees who are "willing to cut themselves into pieces". Without this spirit, there will be no Huawei later...
