this man is not calm

Chapter 248 No joke
The company's manpower is increasing step by step, but the increase in workload is significantly greater.

It is foreseeable that the overall scale of Jinxi Culture is still expanding. Before the first wave of dividends from the development period are fully eaten up, it will be difficult for its employees to have leisure time.

Fortunately, Jin Shang, the big boss, can be freed from the heavy mundane affairs, focus on the construction of the company's top-level structure, and find time to do things he likes.

There is still more than a month left, and [-] is about to enter. Year-end comprehensive evaluations, assessments, rank adjustments, distribution of rewards and punishments, year-end bonuses, annual meeting arrangements, etc., all have to be put on the agenda.

"When selecting outstanding employees, it is best to focus on how many difficulties they have overcome, how many arduous tasks they have completed, and how much value they have created for the company, rather than putting more weight on personal sacrifices, family losses, etc. I will This boss will express his gratitude on behalf of the company, but it means that such blunt and distorted values ​​​​of "selling out" have become the consensus mainstream. Everyone must take care of it, and small families must not neglect it. Jingxi Culture is not a company whose main narrative style is "dedication" Company. The articles of association are written in the employee handbook, and the values ​​are hung at the door. It’s not just to look good or show off.”

He commented on the appendix of a slightly problematic list in his hand, and said that in addition to not discounting the substantive rewards and compensations, the bottom line that should be observed must also be firmly maintained, and the atmosphere promoted must not be distorted. .

Huang Yiyi, who has been busy with her graduation thesis for the past two months and rarely came to the company, wrote down the boss's instructions one by one, then raised her head and asked:

"As for what Mr. Jin said, try to select a model employee in each major job category. The people below have a vague positioning of standards. Do you want to preach about it?"

"better not."

Jin Shang thought for a while and rejected the proposal.

"What is emphasized actually means what is lacking. Let the people below submit a recommendation list, and we will judge the most suitable ones. In the future, everyone will naturally know what the company advocates."

Rigid corporate culture promotion and implementation, if handled improperly, may have adverse effects. It is better to reflect the core values ​​​​in daily work.

There are currently nearly 600 people in the company's headquarters, one-half of whom work in this small building, and the rest are scattered in western Beijing.Based on these hundreds of people, we control more than five times the number of branches, subsidiaries, local business departments, etc., plus some temporary workers and interns, and there are nearly 5000 employees who directly or indirectly receive Jinxi Culture’s salary. .

A large part of this was acquired through the acquisition of bookstores and comic magazines owned by Meiying Studio, and some were recruited from the expansion of the rapidly expanding Jinxi Mall.

As a result, many new employees have only been on the job for three months and do not meet the award conditions.

This also reduces the workload of Shuai Xuan a lot.

After talking to Huang Yiyi about work, the two chatted about some lighter topics.

"My tutor also praised me and said that my topic choice was good. It is a good perspective to discuss the employment issues of modern enterprises using the personnel changes of a new technology company. The key is that such living examples are hard to find, especially It is as successful and typical as our company. It is really a waste to use it as an undergraduate graduation thesis. If you leave it in the hands of someone who knows the product, you can write a famous journal paper with a high academic score."

"There will be many opportunities like this in the future. Tell your instructor that you are welcome to come and investigate."

Jin Shang generously promised that the future direction of industry, academia and research will not only be limited to information technology, but also involve more exchanges in other fields, which is always beneficial.

Even if it means giving more good impressions to the students and laying the foundation for recruiting talents in the future, that would be great.

"Then I'll just say that. There's no way the instructor will give me high marks."

"It's just investigating and collecting data. There is no distinction. Don't think I don't know. Next year will be the time to officially start writing the thesis..."

"It's true that the boss is a young master's degree student."

Huang Yiyi, who has become familiar with her, is not as cautious as before.

"Sister Wei is too busy. I haven't seen her since I came here twice. I still want to ask her some questions."

"Go to the site to see the terrain, and work with people from the design company. Try to complete the warehouse and functional areas by the end of the year, and put them into use first, and then take your time with the subsequent office buildings."

Three hundred million seems like a lot, but it won't take long if we really invest in warehousing and logistics.

After North China is initially operational, Central China, East China and South China will also follow suit.

Back to the present, Huang Yiyi is an intern college student introduced by Lao Jin's trustee. She has worked in the company on and off for so long and is one of the first few veterans who laid the foundation. When she graduates next year, if she does not continue to take the postgraduate entrance examination, Jin Shang will definitely have to Dig her over.

It's hard to find experienced people who are easy to use and know the company well. During this period, Jinshang also tried to screen a group of people through internal recommendations, competitions, assessments and promotions. As for their performance in the new positions, I can only say that they are good. Bad, the running-in period has not passed yet. We have to wait and see whether this method should be promoted in the future.

"It feels like the company is still growing healthily without me. Mr. Jin, you don't know that our research team is now using Jinxi to chat. The team leader has recharged to apply to open a special group to strengthen the team sampling in different internship units. Contact the staff. Use Jinxi Mailbox as your email address, and use a network hard drive to store files. You can also transfer and download them over long distances. The disks are no longer useful..."

"Thank you for your support. What the company needs is this kind of high-quality customers..."

Jin Shang, who said with a smile, was also happy for the news.

Some professionals have indeed felt the convenience of the various applications bundled with Jinxi Chat, and have begun to try using them, and are even preparing to recharge.

These are all elites who have contributed tremendously to the development of the company.

"It's just that it's hard to find places to access the Internet. Local Internet cafes and computer rooms are mixed together, which is not a good place to do things. Internet access in the school computer room is troublesome. The network is slow and unstable, which affects the experience."

"This won't be easy to solve in a while. We can only improve it slowly as time goes by."

Originally, Jinshang planned to open the first Internet cafe to pilot ADSL high-speed broadband before December 30, but it was delayed due to various reasons.

The operator is busy setting up a chat room, and the first batch of account registrations are expected to be opened in the middle of next month.

As for high-end e-sports Internet cafes, try to open before the Spring Festival.

From Huang Yiyi's mouth, Jin Shang learned about the good reviews of the company's products from third parties, and Jin Shang felt much better. Due to the chat room incident, many plans were delayed, and cultural and creative products were inevitably unsatisfactory. The incident made Jin Shang a little depressed at the end of the year. Hearing that the core of the company was not damaged, but had a tendency to develop and grow, all the haze was almost swept away.

After get off work, Jin Shang came home happily and made a few troublesome hard dishes. After eating happily with Li Xuan, the two leaned on the sofa and watched prime time cartoons on the children's channel.

Today is the first public broadcast of "Jiuding War" under Jinxi Culture. It is the first time to make an appearance. It is normal to be a little nervous.

Eating sliced ​​and soaked apples, the two of them finished the first episode while chatting quietly.

When the ending song was played, Jin Shangcai asked:
"how do you feel?"

"It's okay, it's a bit interesting, but...there's nothing particularly attractive to me."

"As long as you don't hate it. The target viewing group is young students, mainly boys, followed by girls..."

"But, I always feel a bit..."

"Is it different from the previous cartoons aimed at younger audiences?"

"Yes, that's it. Do you want to promote animation to all age groups?" "You have to promote it, but it doesn't really have to be that radical..."

The comics and animations of the past were too biased towards young children. They were either childish to coax children, or they were enlightening to preach. Not to mention middle school students, many primary school students disliked them.

As for all-ages films that are too serious, if they don’t take the family-friendly route, they will be dead ends. They will not please audiences of all ages, will be greedy for perfection, and will be abandoned by everyone in the end.

The direction of early childhood education is definitely not the development direction of Jinxi Culture, or in other words, not the direction of cultural creativity, but one of the education and training routes.

The most important thing is to produce high-quality animation works for teenagers and young people to meet their viewing needs.

"Positioning is very important. I never thought of making a fairy tale for adults. Teenagers who are not yet cold-blooded are the group who are more likely to be infected."

The success of "Weekly Shonen Jump" is that it has grasped the three core keywords of "friendship", "effort" and "victory", and has become the world's leading comic magazine.

"Oriental Manke" under Jinxi Culture actually has such potential. However, in addition to categories such as fighting, action, comedy, and sports that can easily show passion, Jin Shang also hopes to broaden the track as much as possible to include science fiction, adventure, love and society. Topics and other emerging works.

"Jiuding War" is a very typical work that mixes future science fiction with mythology and fantasy. For adults with stable ideas and not easily touched, it may just be lively and a bit noisy, but teenagers with rich imaginations and very keen on novel things , I think you will like it very much.

After explaining the company's current strategy and plans, Li Xuan shook her head and chewed apple slices to herself.

"I don't really understand it anyway. Just think it's useful to you. Although I don't think it's very exciting, it's still good to pass the time."

The dramas these days are really full of interesting things. Each episode of "Jiuding War" is 10 minutes long, with a total of 25 episodes. It has been broadcast for nearly a month, and there is a rebroadcast during the day. The arrangement of the Beijing Children's Education Channel is also very generous.

To be honest, Jin Shangzhen didn't know how the Meiying Studio completed this amount of work in such a short period of time and with such a low budget.

All I can say is that labor is really cheap these days, especially for animators. Even big studios like American Film Studio can't "roll" it well.

Of course, it is also possible that the industry is experiencing a downturn, and there are really not many large-scale productions that are really investing money. When you meet someone who is willing to spend money, of course you have to use all your strength to show your true skills and let Party A see what you are capable of. Next time something good happens, don't forget them.

"Forget about other things. Are the details of life in 13 years and [-] in the animation too detailed? For example, this high-speed railway, smartphones, driverless driving, smart delivery and scan-code payment. Although there is only one It's a prototype, but...those serious explanations don't seem to be casual and perfunctory. Hard science fiction is not that troublesome..."

"You think it's science fiction?"

Hearing this, Jin Shang smiled and shook his head:
"Given my background, I don't have much dedication to being a successful businessman, but... I still have a lot of ideas about being an entrepreneur who changes the world. As long as I am named 'family' It’s not that easy.”

In the era of Internet self-media, everyone dares to call themselves "XX family", and this term is overused.

Military strategists, writers, writers, scientists, etc., which one was not once admired by others?
It not only represents career, but also identity and status.

Especially the word entrepreneur is a term that all wealthy businessmen call themselves shamelessly.

"You seemed to have said it before, and it was quite realistic. I thought your bragging was refreshing and refined."

"how come?"

Jin Shang laughed indifferently and said,

"The company has an important patent that is currently idle, but the level of confidentiality, development and trial scenarios is extremely high, you know, right?"

"Is that the QR code?"

Li Xuan was shocked,
"Are you serious?"

"Seriously, I never just talk."

Regardless of whether it was in the past life or this life, the QR code was invented very rarely. It took many years before people really took it seriously and put it to use.

This is the case with many technologies in the Internet field. When they appeared, they were not born at the right time. When it came time to show their talents, things had already changed.

"This thing is especially suitable for use in your online and offline life. The principle of that thing is not difficult, and it has a wide range of applications. The most difficult thing is that the device carrier and the accuracy of the scanning device are far from enough. Now, we can only Playing in the laboratory is not the time to take it out..."

"So, you like mobile phones?"

“Smartphones…smartphones of the future.”

The purpose of Jinxi Culture is technology and culture. It has never said that it will only do the Internet. It is just that now is not the time to make heavy bets on offline entities. First make money, win reputation, attract customers, and then "sell" your ideals to them.

"I always feel that I should overestimate you a little, but looking back, I find that I still underestimated your ambition."

Valuation 30 billion?

Listed company?

Cultural and creative giant?

This is just the beginning, just a small test.

"To be honest, my current achievements are due to Lao Jin's strong support and good luck. I just made a decision, took advantage of the situation, and gave it a slight push. In fact, there was no real tough battle. I have fought. By the way, this 'chat room' impact may be a moderate test..."

"It's going smoothly and you have established a firm foothold. That's good. Do you still want to grow into a giant without any troubles?"

Jin Shang didn't pay attention to his girlfriend's teasing.

"I'll make a phone call first and ask how the ratings are. If it's good, I'll send it to the creators to make them happy. After more than three months of hard work, I finally got some decent results."

In fact, Jin Shang didn't need to take the initiative to greet him. The producer at Meiying Studio who was waiting for news called him first.

"The peak value is 30.00% six, and the average value has dropped to 30.00% one? How does this data compare horizontally with regional TV stations in the same period?"

"No. [-] in the same period and top five in history? Not bad."

I don’t know the other party’s statistical caliber and calculation method, but rankings cannot deceive anyone.
