"Internal test? Are we going to go to college students in Shanghai for testing? According to the time, when our game can be internally tested, the students may not have started yet." Zhang Yidong calculated the time and immediately discovered the problem.

"It's okay, this is not a problem. College students all have mobile phones." Zhou Yujie said while playing games.

At present, the [Water Army] group formed by college students mainly has two purposes. One is to promote Toutiao's products, the second is to test Toutiao's new products and new businesses, and the third is to supervise some news or comments on Toutiao that may violate laws and regulations.

With the gradual growth of Toutiao Company, AppTrea has become the most powerful traffic promotion platform within the company. Therefore, it is no longer so important to let students promote in front of computers, and this operation requires strong organization and much higher cost.

The two subsequent businesses require students to operate on their own mobile phones. The advantage of mobile Internet is that they are more convenient. As long as they have mobile phones and Internet, they can work anywhere. Moreover, because they are not that tired and operate relatively simple, the single salary cost has been reduced a lot, and coupled with the attractiveness of today's Toutiao, many people make some money while browsing news.

"Brother Zhou!" Wang Jie came from somewhere. During this period, he has been working in the game department and exerted his talent in art.

"Well, how do you feel when you work?" Zhou Yujie asked with a smile.

Wang Jie touched the back of his head and whispered: "I feel that my level is a little unsatisfied with the requirements. Many times I can't draw that feeling!"

"Just take your time." Zhou Yujie said with a smile.

In the game industry, there is a high demand for art experts. Although the various pictures of ordinary games are made by computers, their original versions were painted by professional painters, because only those who specialize in art know the visual stimulation of a picture.

Before 2000 or even in the early 21st century, it would be difficult for graduates in the art industry to find jobs unless they were very good.

However, with the development of technology, computer-end games, mobile games, web pages, image processing, design, etc. have also developed further, and the demand for top students in art majors has changed exponentially.

Therefore, in the 1910s, major Internet companies would recruit a lot of art talents.

Zhang Yidong patted Wang Jie on the shoulder and smiled and said, "Xiao Wang, it is normal that you can't meet the requirements. After all, your painting level is talent. If you have systematic training, your future skills will definitely be the top."

"Mr. Zhou, in big cities like Shanghai, there should be training institutions in this area. It's really not possible. Find some more famous professors in the industry to guide Xiao Wang. With such a high talent, it would be a pity not to study!"

"Well, no problem. I'll ask someone to check the information about this. You can make this [Temple Escape] first." Zhou Yujie nodded and agreed.

Although Wang Jie has no experience, he is still very talented. Spending a little money to train him professional art knowledge, it will be more convenient to carry out his work in the future.

During the previous extensive development, many personnel aspects of Toutiao Company were quite chaotic. Last month, the headhunter dug up a professional personnel manager and began to integrate the company's internal personnel resources, and formulated an internal talent training plan and incentive plan. It will be officially implemented after the New Year.

"[Temple Escape] The main plot of this game is rhythm. The requirements for the picture are not particularly high. We can handle the picture, but the music is a big problem!" Zhang Yidong frowned and said, "According to your requirements, Mr. Zhang, we are looking for a more radical music, but I have listened to a lot, but I haven't found a suitable one."

"Music!" Zhou Yujie pressed his temple. He didn't remember what the music was in his previous life [Temple Escape]. He only remembered that it sounded very nervous. It was a match made by heaven with the game plot, but now he couldn't even hum.

After thinking for a while, Zhou Yujie said, "I can't do anything about this. Otherwise, you can discuss with the music department. They have a large number of categories of music, and maybe you can find what you need."

Toutiao has five major business departments. Appliance is the core and is also the software with the most users among the company's products. It is also the main traffic channel for the company's other software to develop successfully.

The second is Quxin. The current users are rising steadily, which makes many people think about the future. At the same time, Quxin is also making every effort to attract traffic to Toutiao, and then analyze and operate its own business through Toutiao's data.

The third one is Toutiao, which is currently developing very fast. In the eyes of senior executives, they know the company's core strategy, and the main source of big data information is Toutiao.

The fourth business is the game department. Although there are few products, it is highly valued by the boss and a lot of manpower and resources have been invested.

The last business is the music business, which seems to have become an affiliated business of Toutiao. Although its download volume is not low, Toutiao can place advertisements, just for the sake of the market, and give up for the time being. However, no one can see hope in the music business, because the current music industry does not seem to have any profitable methods except for paid downloads.

Currently, the music department has about 15 people, mainly responsible for cooperating with the Toutiao department and recommending different music to various users of Toutiao. At the same time, Toutiao will also be recommended to mobile phone users who do not have a music APP installed.

But the more important purpose of the music department is to classify a large amount of music. Zhou Yujie hopes to use the classification of music to further increase the further classification of users and lay a solid foundation for the future era of short videos.

However, the people below don’t know Zhou Yujie’s idea, so the music department has become the bottom-ranked business within the company. Fortunately, the investment required to operate a music software is not large.

"Okay, then I'll go to Lao Sun to see if there is any suitable music there." Zhang Yidong nodded and said.

Zhou Yujie nodded and said, "Lao Zhang, you should know the current situation of the company now. Our company's future may be Quxin, Toutiao, or AppTreasure, but if these businesses want to develop better, they need enough funds behind it.

Financing is also a channel, and we will also raise funds in the future, but if we do not have the ability to make blood, the entire company will be influenced by capital, and you are also a experienced person, so you should know this."

"I understand, Mr. Zhou." Zhang Yidong nodded. Even Bat is often troubled by the capital behind it. Alibaba Group is the best example. SoftBank and Yahoo have controlled too much equity, which has led to a very serious internal struggle and seriously interfered with the normal development of the company.

"After this game is made, I will increase my investment in the game department. As long as you do it well, I guarantee that your team can buy a house in the Shanghai Stock Exchange in three years. I will also start the game you want to develop within one year." Zhou Yujie promised.

"Thank you, Mr. Zhou, we will definitely do our best." Zhang Yidong agreed. He didn't care, but his subordinates, if they could buy a house in Shanghai, they should be the biggest ambition of a worker.

...

Los Angeles, USA:

"Mr. Charles, what are you thinking?" Tao Weidong said casually while drinking coffee.

"I really want to accept your proposal, but I think the proportion is still too high." Charles shook his head and said.

"Then we don't need to cooperate. If we cooperate, you can't pay a penny, no matter what." Tao Weidong said with a smile: "Or we can earn 20% if we don't pay a penny. This is the safest choice."
