You call this entrepreneurship?

Chapter 315

"Wang Jun..." Qin Shaoyan hesitated for two seconds, thought for a moment, and suddenly asked, "Who is Wang Jun?"

"Huh?!" Zhang Pingyi looked at Qin Shaoyan in shock, "What happened to you today?"

"Are you confused because of the fever or because you drank too much?"

"What's wrong with me?" Qin Shaoyan was very surprised, "I'm fine."

"Do you think you are normal now?" Zhang Pingyi frowned. "If you were normal, how come you even forgot who Wang Jun was?"

"I have a lot of things to do, and I need to focus on attracting investment." Qin Shaoyan defended, "There are so many people in the company, how can I remember everyone?"

"Yeah, that's OK." Zhang Pingyi breathed a sigh of relief. "It's amazing that you still remember that Wang Jun is from the company."

"I just haven't remembered it yet." Qin Shaoyan coughed awkwardly twice, "Isn't he the programmer you recommended before? He's from USTC."

Zhang Pingyi looked at Qin Shaoyan suspiciously, "Your feet are off the ground, right?"

"Let's talk business!" Qin Shaoyan brought the topic back to the topic, "Is this Wang Jun reliable?"

"He has excellent skills and is a very thoughtful person." Zhang Pingyi chose his words carefully, "I think he can be trained as a role model."

Qin Shaoyan asked: "How high is the technical level?"

"It's at least as high as two or three floors." Zhang Pingyi gestured casually, "In terms of technical strength, it is at the T0 level in the company."

"Huh?" Qin Shaoyan was a little surprised, "Your level is higher than Brother Chen's?"

Zhang Pingyi pondered for a moment, "How should I put it? Senior Brother Chen's technical level is indeed very high, but he also has a lot of rich experience."

Qin Shaoyan understood now that Wang Jun's level was higher than Chen Guangxia's, he just lacked some project experience.

"Since you think this person can be used, then use him!" Qin Shaoyan agreed with Zhang Pingyi's opinion, "Give him a few more projects to practice, don't be afraid of mistakes."

"Don't worry." Zhang Pingyi looked confident. "We have the technical testing team to back us up. There won't be any major bugs."

"One more thing." Qin Shaoyan suddenly warned seriously, "Keep an eye on this person. Don't let someone kidnap him after we train him."

"There are too many temptations in the world now. It's okay for Mr. Fan to poach people without any moral principles. At least the meat is rotting in the pot."

"Don't let anyone pull him out to start a business. He'll get carried away and just follow the crowd."

Zhang Pingyi was a little embarrassed. "It's hard to prevent this kind of thing. Entrepreneurship is popular now. Everyone wants to try their hand at it. If he really wants to do that, you can't keep him even if you offer him a high salary and stock options."

"Tell him more about Brother Chen's glorious deeds so that he can have a clear understanding of how miserable the consequences of starting a business are." Qin Shaoyan gave bad advice.

"Forget it. It's better to block the non-compete agreement than your bad idea." Zhang Pingyi said with a smile.

"Non-compete agreement." Qin Shaoyan sighed.

It's hard to say how much of a deterrent this thing is, and there are ways to circumvent it.

"Forget it, it's totally groundless." Zhang Pingyi said calmly, "As long as we have good treatment and room for advancement, he won't be so crazy as to go out and start a business."

"If everyone is worried that they will run away, why do we train the main programmer?"

"Master Zhang is right. It is not a good idea to throw the baby out with the bathwater." Qin Shaoyan said solemnly, "The company should build a reasonable talent selection system to allow outstanding talents to have enough room for advancement."

"Also, the non-compete agreement needs to be improved. I will ask a law firm to draft a new one to fill in the loopholes."

"Reward and punishment measures must be implemented with both hands, and both hands must be strong."

"Ahem." Zhang Pingyi pretended not to hear what Qin Shaoyan said next. "We will set up a technical talent selection committee and formulate an internal talent selection process."

"Sure, the salary will be determined by the rating." Qin Shaoyan added, "Give them a raise if it's due. As long as they can complete the work with quality and quantity, don't be reluctant to give them a raise."

"We must not allow the situation where an old employee works for two or three years but still gets paid less than a fresh graduate. Wouldn't that just force them to resign?" "How could that happen?" Zhang Pingyi said, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. "How stupid must the management be to do something like that?"

Qin Shaoyan sneered a few times without further explanation.

This situation may seem incredible at this time, but later it becomes a common phenomenon in the workplace.

There are even cases where the boss would rather offer a monthly salary of 7,000 to an old employee and hire a new employee with a monthly salary of over 10,000 to replace him, rather than giving the old employee a raise.

Qin Shaoyan didn't talk too much about management issues with Zhang Pingyi, because the company now has one and only one goal.

That is to survive, do everything possible to survive.

Everyone is working hard to find ways to keep the company growing.

All legal and illegal means will be used, and no one thinks about the rules at this stage.

All standardized management regulations at this stage may be self-defeating.

"We need to take this cooperation with Shonan TV seriously." Qin Shaoyan brought the topic back to business and said seriously, "Although this project is less important than the International College Student Summer Camp, we can't just ignore it and do it perfunctorily."

"Make it clear to the people below that this project is also the company's key project this year."

"Don't think that the cooperation with Shonan TV is just Qvod's business. If the project is done well, the traffic and subsequent dividends brought to the campus network by the online voting of Super Girl will also be considerable."

"I want to take advantage of this opportunity. If I can compete with Baidu Tieba and become equal to it, that would be the greatest success."

Zhang Pingyi frowned, looking a little puzzled, "Do you think our campus network can't beat Baidu Tieba?"

"Baidu Tieba will be our only strong rival in the future, and we may not be able to defeat them." Qin Shaoyan said seriously, "Don't think I'm exaggerating."

"The current campus network forum is still far behind Baidu's forum in terms of the number of users, number of posts, number of daily active users and other data."

"But this gap can be made up. The campus network has the first-mover advantage and has gathered a large number of loyal users first, while Baidu Tieba has a huge traffic entrance in the form of search engines and is constantly expanding its advantage through keyword traffic."

"We want to use Super Girl, the hottest variety show at the moment, to narrow the gap between us and our competitors."

Zhang Pingyi sighed, "Search engines are indeed a huge advantage."

In this era, the search engine Baidu has a huge traffic advantage in the domestic Internet.

Especially after the millennium, all those who build websites cannot avoid Baidu.

In the early days, search engines didn’t have so much clutter and searches could still display normally.

Later, paid ranking appeared. In order to maintain the website traffic, websites had to pay it so that the website could be displayed normally on the first page.

Zhang Pingyi frowned, looking a little anxious. "So how do we deal with the search engine?"

"Don't panic, search engines are nothing special." Qin Shaoyan said calmly, "Our campus network has improved its social platform ecosystem so that users can find out what they want to know without leaving the platform."

"Social news, entertainment gossip, discussions with peers, knowledge sharing and learning, the latest jokes, and Internet hot topics, using the social ecosystem to build a moat."

"Will this work?" Zhang Pingyi sighed, "Defense alone doesn't seem to be enough."

"You won't know if it works until you try it." Qin Shaoyan smiled. "We are not in the same field as search engines in social networking. Although there are some overlapping areas, we must believe that everyone has their own specialty."

"Search engines won't steal our users, and we just need to hold on for a few years, and by then Baidu won't be a threat anymore."

When the mobile Internet era arrived, Baidu, once one of the three major Internet giants, had its disguise stripped off and was defeated by the new generation.

Although Zhang Pingyi didn't know where Qin Shaoyan's inexplicable confidence came from, he still chose to believe in this partner, as if he always had a way.

"No matter what the future holds, let's first take a bite of the cake in front of us!" Zhang Pingyi said firmly.
