Chapter 327 I'm Afraid of Microsoft's Misunderstanding

It was a weekday morning, but Qvod changed its usual busy working atmosphere and started cleaning.

The whiteboard with scribblings was wiped clean, and the office supplies thrown everywhere were put away. The workstation desks were placed with messy cups and kettles, lunch boxes, green plants, sticky notes, leftover snacks, and various strange-shaped ornaments.

In other words, the two-dimensional culture is still a niche now, otherwise you can still see a row of action figures.

Kou Hongfei and several senior executives were waiting at the elevator entrance early, communicating with each other in low voices.

"Ding."

When the elevator sounded, everyone immediately quieted down and shouted in unison as they watched the door open.

"Morning, Mr. Qin!"

Qin Shaoyan walked out of the elevator with his secretary and driver, and waved his hand casually, "You guys go do your work, I'm just here to take a look, don't make such a fuss."

Kou Hongfei immediately said, "We were about to have a morning meeting, and since you, President Qin, are here, we wanted you to host it and give us some guidance on our work."

Qin Shaoyan nodded, "Okay, then I'll listen to your report."

The crowd surrounded Qin Shaoyan, walked through the office hall, and came to the large conference room inside.

Qin Shaoyan sat in the main seat, and his secretary Xiao Chen moved a chair and sat behind him.

Kou Hongfei sat on his left, and other executives were arranged in order of their positions.

Everyone spoke one by one, sorted out the recent data of the project they were responsible for, and reported to the boss.

Everyone's data is positive, with various increases, ranging from a low of 30% to a high of 120%.

From the report, it seems that Qvod.com is thriving. The situation is not just good, but very good, giving people the illusion of being the only one seeking to be invincible.

The most intuitive data is the growth in the number of users. The number of users of Qvod will soon exceed 10 million.

Qin Shaoyan listened to everyone's work summary with a smile on his face, without saying a word from beginning to end.

Kou Hongfei thought that President Qin was very satisfied with everyone's work, so he confidently promised his boss, "According to the current development trend, by the end of the year, the number of users of Qvod.com will easily exceed 1500 million, and the number of online users will reach more than million."

Qin Shaoyan hesitated for two seconds, and suddenly asked: "Do you know the situation of other video websites?"

Everyone was stunned and looked at each other in confusion.

The content of today's morning meeting was to report the operating data of Qvod.com to the boss, and there was no mention of asking about competitors.

Several product managers subconsciously flipped through the documents and reports in their hands, as if trying to find the answer from them.

Qin Shaoyan asked again, "Haven't you noticed the basic situation of our competitors?"

Kou Hongfei was stunned. Even though his reaction was slow, he could tell that something was not right in Mr. Qin's words.

"Uh, Mr. Qin." Kou Hongfei said cautiously, "We have always paid close attention to the situation of several video websites and regularly collect relevant data, but the latest data has not been updated yet."

"It's not updated." Qin Shaoyan asked slowly, "What about the previous data? Is there any?"

"Yes, I'll ask them to look for it." Kou Hongfei quickly winked at others.

Everyone was still a little confused. This data... wasn't easy to find.

For a moment, the scene became rather awkward.

Fortunately, Qin Shaoyan was not here to cause trouble. He said thoughtfully, "Business is like a battlefield. You must know yourself and your enemy."

"Mr. Qin is right!" Kou Hongfei quickly responded.

"Go back and summarize this year's data and make a PPT." Qin Shaoyan said calmly, "Also list the data of other video websites so that we can make an intuitive comparison."

"Give it to me when you're done."

Everyone present quickly agreed, and Kou Hongfei took this opportunity to signal others to leave the meeting room first.

Sure enough, after everyone else left, even Secretary Xiao Chen followed out, leaving only Qin Shaoyan and Kou Hongfei.

Qin Shaoyan looked at Kou Hongfei, "Mr. Kou, what do you think about the future development prospects of our Qvod?"

Kou Hongfei immediately said, "It must be thriving. Under the wise leadership of President Qin, the company will become bigger and stronger, and it will definitely be listed on the stock market within three years."

He was not flattering, he said it sincerely.

Qin Shaoyan was indeed good at strategy, and he quickly established Qvod as an absolute leader among video websites. Other video websites could only follow behind and pick up the leftovers.

According to the current trend, it would be conservative to say that an IPO will be launched in three years. Qin Shaoyan sighed, "Don't be blindly optimistic. The concept of video websites is very popular now. Capital giants are interested in it. Our Qvod is only temporarily ahead. Our competitors are still not up to par."

“Maybe next year we’ll have a stronger opponent coming down the field, so our future isn’t all smooth sailing.”

Kou Hongfei nodded. "Boss Qin is right. The employees in the company are indeed a little too proud. I will do my best to rectify this proud and complacent atmosphere."

Qin Shaoyan waved his hand, "It's a good thing to be ambitious. This will give you more motivation to achieve results."

"Qvod.com will have a lot of work ahead of it, and I hope everyone can maintain a higher morale."

"The Qvod team is still very combat-ready, please rest assured, Mr. Qin." Kou Hongfei felt a little strange. What was Mr. Qin going to do?
"Our opponents are not passively taking the beating and doing nothing." Qin Shaoyan said seriously, "They are actively planning how to deal with us and have even formed an anti-Qvod alliance. You should pay more attention to it."

"In the fourth quarter, Qvod.com has many key projects, including the live broadcast of the Super Girl finals, the live broadcast of the National Games, and the trial broadcast of the self-produced drama next year. These are all related to the important strategies of Qvod.com."

"We have to do a solid job, otherwise how can I tell Mr. Xiong from IDG that the number of users of Qvod.com will exceed 20 million by the end of the year?"

Kou Hongfei was stunned for a moment, "Twenty million?"

Qin Shaoyan emphasized, "It's 20 million."

Kou Hongfei understood. If President Qin said it was 20 million, then it must be 20 million. It must be 20 million.

Not also.

Qvod.com has a good foundation and it is easy to fine-tune it.

"There is one more important thing." Qin Shaoyan added, "The campus network is organizing an international college student summer camp. Your Qvod network will send a photography team to film it."

“We need to find a photographer, director, and editor with good technical skills to make this into a series.”

"The campus network will do its best to attract traffic to you and strive to make it a self-made flagship program."

Kou Hongfei smiled, patted his chest and promised that he would definitely film the most capable team.

The International College Student Summer Camp was planned by President Qin himself, so it must be given priority. Even the "Super Girl" finals can be put on hold.

Qin Shaoyan gave one last reminder, "Hurry up and get the PPT ready. I need it tomorrow. This is very important."

This sentence made Kou Hongfei a little nervous, so he had to agree reluctantly. He secretly thought that the product managers of Qvod.com would not be able to return home today.

Next, accompanied by Kou Hongfei, Qin Shaoyan toured the company, cordially met with front-line employees and listened to their opinions.

Qin Shaoyan emphasized that the welfare of employees must be guaranteed, especially the problem of employees' late-night meals when they work overtime. He also promised that after the company goes public, a 24-hour cafeteria and temporary dormitories will be established.

The current plan is to purchase more convenience foods, add more electrical appliances such as microwave ovens and induction cookers, and ask the logistics department to purchase more sleeping bags and folding beds.

Qin Shaoyan emphasized that the current stage is the time to ensure combat effectiveness, and the administrative department must shorten the employee reimbursement process and effectively resolve employees' worries.

Of course, the most important thing is the issue of adjusting leave.

Qin Shaoyan discussed with the senior executives of Qvod and came up with a plan on the spot. Overtime work on Saturdays and Sundays will be calculated based on double annual leave, and at the same time, annual leave will not be deducted for company travel or group building.

The employees immediately cheered and applauded.

After the inspection, Qin Shaoyan left with his secretary and driver, and was seen off by all the employees.

The employees sighed that President Qin was more down-to-earth and worked hard to improve the comfort of employees when they worked overtime.

……

While the employees of Qvod were working hard, Qin Shaoyan was already sitting in the hotel's private room, discussing the menu with his secretary Xiao Chen.

After more than ten minutes, a sneaky figure quietly pushed open the door, poked his head in to take a look and then retracted it.

The driver Hao Dashan who was sitting next to him immediately stood up vigilantly. As he walked to the door, the other party quickly came in again.

Qin Shaoyan smiled happily, stood up and greeted, "Brother Chen is here, come and sit down, come and sit down."

Chen Guangxia took off his mask, sat down on the chair next to Qin Shaoyan with a complicated expression, and said with a wry smile: "Boss Qin, if you have something to say, just say it directly on QQ. Why spend so much money?"

Qin Shaoyan smiled and said, "Why, as the CEO of Yiku.com, you don't even have the freedom to socialize?"

Chen Guangxia's face froze and he coughed. "That's not the case. I'm just worried that Microsoft might misunderstand me."

Qin Shaoyan asked with concern: "Brother Chen, are you okay at Yiku.com?"

Chen Guangxia was silent.
