Chapter 1772 Send someone, give money

If you are not in charge of your family, you don't know the price of firewood, rice, oil and salt.

Zhou Buqi and Cheng Binghao no longer feel pain in their backs while standing and talking.

What kind of environment attracts what kind of talents.

JD.com's technical foundation is too weak. Liu Qiangdong also wants to find a few super experts to quickly lead JD.com to complete the upgrade of the technology industry. Worry about finding a job.

A company like JD.com is really not attractive.

Liu Qiangdong had no choice but to find Oracle's vice president of technology in Greater China. Xu Yi was promoted to the third level and became CTO of JD.com with a high salary.

The person Ziweixing despises is the master of technology in JD.com.

Cheng Binghao still didn't seem to realize it, and persuaded him: "Ziweixing Engineering Institute is the best outsourcing agency for high-end IT projects in China. It has cooperated with JD.com so many times. Aren't they all successful? I'm not afraid to brag to you. In the Internet market, Oracle, Microsoft, and IBM are no good, and the outsourcing projects they provide are not as good as Ziweixing Engineering Institute!"

Zhou Buqi said: "When did you hear that Internet giants such as Google, Amazon, and Facebook have looked for high-end outsourcing services outside? Not only do they not purchase, but they often open source their own high-end projects. Because IBM, Oracle The technical level of outsourcing manufacturers such as Microsoft and Microsoft is far inferior to them!"

Cheng Binghao coughed lightly, and added: "You can't say that. To be precise, the level of Internet technology of these three outsourcing giants is not as good as that of Internet giants such as Google and Amazon. There are specialties in the technology industry. If it is software , especially the B-side business, giants such as Oracle, IBM, SAP, and Microsoft are still very powerful, stronger than Internet companies.”

Zhou Buqi nodded, and then said: "Ziweixing is at the same level as Google, Facebook, and Amazon. In the field of Internet technology, it is better than Microsoft, Oracle, etc. combined. I am very surprised, obviously our own The best technical service, why do you have to find outsiders to buy it at a high price?"

Cheng Binghao concurred: "That's right. With Ziweixing's level of strength, we can't get the 12306 bid. Could it be that we can't even get the Jingdong bid? This is too unreasonable."

Having said all this, Liu Qiangdong can only tell the truth with a embarrassed face: "He works in Oracle, if you want to recruit him, you can only buy Oracle's system."

"I go!"

Zhou Buqi really couldn't laugh or cry.

That's right, only technicians can make the company's big boss so embarrassed.

Cheng Binghao was also speechless, "Is there a kickback?"

Liu Qiangdong said: "Rebates are not enough. Just like what you said just now, the vice president of technology in Oracle China is definitely not a front-line technical talent. After joining JD.com, if he wants to make achievements as soon as possible to prove himself, The best way to do it is to make a fuss on the framework of the Oracle system that he is familiar with."

"Stop here!" Zhou Buqi waved his hand, then looked at Lao Cheng, "How about Ziweixing sending someone to JD.com as CTO?"

"This..." Cheng Binghao was a little embarrassed, "Of course there is no problem with the company, it depends on personal wishes."

If there is a career development prospect in Ziweixing, who would like to join JD.com?

Zhou Buqi said: "It's nothing more than confidence."

"Yes, I have enough confidence in Ziweixing, and in Jingdong..." Cheng Binghao gave Liu Qiangdong a shy look, "I am a little worried."

Liu Qiangdong was very angry, and said with self-deprecation: "This is the way it is. In the past few years, JD.com has indeed lagged behind a lot in terms of technological development."

Zhou Buqi said bluntly: "Old Cheng, just call the roll, who will be the right one? If you don't understand the situation, call Dr. Wang Jian now."

Cheng Binghao is now not only the dean of Ziweixing Engineering College, but also the vice chairman of the technical committee. He knows all the technical experts of Ziweixing very well, "I know, the CTO Abraham of Xiaonei is very good. It’s him who restructured it.”

"Who?" Zhou Buqi was slightly taken aback, "Foreigner?"

Cheng Binghao smiled and said, "No, he came back from studying in the United States and is in his early thirties this year. His Chinese name seems to be Dong Quan or Dong Qun. Everyone is used to calling him by his English name."

"Dong Quan?" Zhou Buqi remembered the name, and he was one of the only three graduate students who worked part-time on Xiaonei. "Did he graduate from BIT and worked part-time on Xiaonei?"

Cheng Binghao thought for a while, and then suddenly said: "It seems to be true. No wonder he became CTO less than two years after joining Xiaonei. He also joined the technical committee. He turned out to be a veteran."

Now, Ziwei Star has been established for 6 years.

Many of the college students who worked part-time on Xiaonei in the early days have returned from studying abroad and formally joined Ziweixing in another capacity.This is also a kind of genetic inheritance.

Today's Xiaonei network has not been moved to Ziweixing's headquarters park, but is still located on the university campus.

The headquarters of Xiaonei.com is in the Sohu Building of Tsinghua Science and Technology Park, which is open to the most Tsinghua students.The branch at Beike has not been cancelled, and every year it will still provide part-time jobs to college students from the campuses of Beike, Beili, and Beihang.

Xiaonei has an extremely important strategic positioning in Ziwei Star, and it often represents the continuation of talents.

Zhou Buqi said: "That's easy, Lao Cheng, you go back and talk to Dong Quan to see if he is willing to come to JD.com as CTO. Just like what I said, JD.com's future is full of hope. Being a CTO in JD.com The honor is not much worse than the honor of being CTO at Ziwei Star!"

"what?"

Cheng Binghao's complexion changed slightly, and he felt that he was exaggerating too mysteriously.

Liu Qiangdong blushed, but he was quite honest, "Don't, just tell the truth, don't lie."

"Who lied to you?" Zhou Buqi was a little amused, "I'm just optimistic about the future of Jingdong! Lao Cheng, you just repeat what I said. If he doesn't believe it, call me and I'll tell him. If he If you still don’t agree, then find someone else and see which technical executives from Friends.com or Toutiao are willing to come over.”

Cheng Binghao said dumbfoundedly: "You have said that, how can Abraham still refuse? Okay, I will tell him when I go back!"

Zhou Buqi looked at Lao Liu, "How is it? Can we cooperate with Ziweixing's Engineering Academy now?"

"it is good!"

Liu Qiangdong nodded.

Zhou Buqi said: "The outsourcing industry of high-end IT projects cannot always think of relying on foreigners. Ziwei needs the support of domestic counterparts to do better in this business. Dangdang's current architecture is also .NET?"

"It seems that this architectural model is more economical, and the couple will pass."

"Where's Yi Xun? Where's Suning?"

"It should be almost the same..." Liu Qiangdong hesitated, "Yixun must be .NET. In the past few years, small companies generally started with this structure, which can reduce the initial cost of starting a business. Suning is not sure. Suning is transforming rather than starting a business. It has a big family and a lot of money. It is said that they want to find IBM to cooperate, and they will make a large sum of money when they come up, which is very ambitious.”

"IBM?" Zhou Buqi curled his lips, "Old Cheng, work hard to get Suni's order! IBM knows nothing about e-commerce, and you have a template for group buying on campus. Isn’t it easy to transform Suning’s e-commerce platform?”

"I'm also thinking the same way. Once JD.com is settled, Suning will be the next step." Cheng Binghao joked, "When we can't reach an agreement, you still have to come forward to persuade Suning's Mr. Zhang."

Zhou Buqi said decisively: "Okay, that's the deal. Old Liu, what do you think about the financing?"

"There is a lot of financial pressure, and the highly competitive market requires price wars, technological innovation, and increased layout in the logistics industry. The overall investment is not low."

"How about $3 million?"

"can."

Liu Qiangdong is not ambiguous at all, and has great ambitions.

Zhou Buqi said: "Okay, let's make it 3 million US dollars, and dilute 20% of the shares... Do you have any promised investment institutions?"

"No."

Backed by Ziweixing, Liu Qiangdong has never cared about money.

Zhou Buqi stood up and planned to leave, "Okay, I'll take care of the money. It's time to introduce some American investment institutions to prepare for the future listing."

……

On the way back, Zhou Buqi and Cheng Binghao were still in the same car.

Zhou Buqi asked: "Does Dangdang need to be changed?"

Cheng Binghao said: "If Dangdang is getting better and better, the structure must be improved like JD.com. If Dangdang's performance is not good or declines after listing, there is actually no need to change. If the traffic is not high, the current structure is sufficient. "

Then, further explanations were made.

The impact of the website structure on the e-commerce platform is mainly in three aspects: reliability, unit cost, and whether it is suitable for future development.

The most basic of these is reliability.

Reliability refers to the proportion of websites that can be opened normally. For first-line e-commerce platforms such as Dangdang and JD.com, the stability must reach 99.99%.

However, this is not enough.

99.99%, in fact, there is an error rate of one in ten thousand.

This means that if the traffic of the website is 100 million a day, there will be 100 clicks that fail, such as failing to open the webpage or failing to submit an order or fail to pay.

If it is a Japanese website, or a restricted-level website, this stability rate is already very, very high, and I am very satisfied.But e-commerce is not good. E-commerce is related to payment, and it must develop towards financial-level requirements.

Cheng Binghao said: "Now we are spelling how many 9s are behind the decimal point. Now large websites are building an open framework structure, and the more open it means the higher the failure rate. Just like the Android system will have more problems than the iOS system. Same. This puts higher technical requirements on the stability of the e-commerce website, which is not as simple as operating a .NET website. JD.com’s technical department needs a complete overhaul.”

Zhou Buqi said: "JD.com has been doing the Internet for so many years, and it is still so uncomfortable. One can imagine how much trouble Suning will encounter when it transforms into an online platform."

Cheng Binghao said with a smile: "Suning is much worse than Jingdong. Jingdong's technical level is too low, and Suning doesn't have it at all. If Suning can be won over, maybe... it is possible... maybe it can become the largest in the history of Ziweixing Engineering Institute. An order."
