Chapter 55 The trouble of management

Xiao Jialin bent down and stood in front of the mirror in the wardrobe, combed his already neat short hair with a comb, then picked up a brand new Nike backpack, opened the door and walked out, stood in the living room, shouting with a full breath: "Dongliang, Brother Yu, let's go, I'm going to work!"

"Here you come."

Zhang Dongliang walked out of the side bedroom next door with a crossbody bag on his back, and then a shirtless guy wearing shorts, who was obviously several years older than the two of them opened the door of the master bedroom and said, "Xiao Jialin, don't scream every morning. It's only 7:30 now, and the working hours are 9:00!"

Xiao Jialin signed a formal contract with Snapdragon in mid-June. After getting his graduation certificate on July 4, he shared a three-bedroom and one-living house in a residential community near Sanjiang University with Zhang Dongliang who returned from the United States and Yu Xingyu, an old programmer who dug up from the capital. After spending more than half a month, he became familiar with each other and reminded with a smile: "Brother Yu, today the boss is going to give a lecture, it is more appropriate to go early."

"Damn! The institute is so far away, there is not even a bus, and we can't walk over. No matter how early we get up, we still have to wait for the bus." Yu Xingyu walked into the bathroom with a toothbrush and a towel and asked, "What do you think the boss is going to talk about today?"

"Then I don't know." Xiao Jialin put his backpack on the broken sofa in the living room, picked up the basketball on the ground, made a shooting move against the wall, and said, "I will probably talk about some new technical knowledge, Tongliang, what do you think?"

After staying in the United States for a while, Zhang Dongliang became calm and introverted, and casually said, "It's possible."

"Mr. Du is very good at speaking skills. Listening to a class is better than self-study for a week. Since he went to the United States, I feel that my level has risen slowly." Xiao Jialin smashed the basketball against the wall a few times and added: "Qintou and Wutou have nothing to say, but when they listen to their lectures, I always feel that they are not as thorough as Mr. Du."

"You two are really melon girls. Technology is a tool for making money. Just know what it is to learn technology." Yu Xingyu said vaguely while brushing her teeth: "The big boss has earned $4 million from Microsoft. I wonder if he will send some red envelopes or something as a meeting gift."

"Brother Yu, you haven't woken up yet. It's only July now, and it's still far from the New Year, so how can you get a red envelope?"

After Yu Xingyu washed up, the three of them left the house and had breakfast in the bun shop at the entrance of the community. When Xiao Jialin was drinking tofu brain, he said, "Dongliang, do you feel that when Mr. Du is here, we work as smooth and relaxed as drinking tofu brain, which is extremely smooth. However, when Mr. Du is away, we work like fried glutinous rice cakes, sticky and choked from time to time, and the progress is much slower."

"I do feel this way." Zhang Dongliang agreed and said: "Mr. Du's thinking is quick and broad in his mind. He writes programs just like a cook who cuts a cow, fast and stable. When he was in the United States, even Microsoft engineers felt that working with Mr. Du was a pleasure."

"If Mr. Du is here, our work efficiency will be improved by at least 50%.

"You two are more exaggerated than those teenage star-chasers. You want your idol to be more awesome than Sun Wukong. You can do everything from heaven to earth." Yu Xingyu ate a bun with Hu La Tang and said, "When I was working in Kingsoft, I wrote Pangu office components for three years. The Andeng office software we are working on now has completed about one-6th of the R&D plan in less than a month. Are you still slow?"

When Du Qiu started the company, he plagiarized all the hardware brands before traveling through time with a bad mind, such as Snapdragon from Qualcomm, Athon from Amd, and the office software name "Itanten" comes from the server chip brand launched by Intel in 2001, which echoes the operating system "Android".

After signing the formal work contract, Xiao Jialin joined the office software research and development department and was a colleague of Yu Xingyu. He didn't argue, but just said: "When you really work with Mr. Du, you will know how strong his abilities are."

After breakfast, the three of them went to the parking lot near the west gate of Sanjiang University, where there were two temporary rented buses parked. There were already many employees in it, some chatting, some reading, and many people were wearing headphones and practicing English listening with a walkman. Next month, Snapdragon will select 10 employees to go to the United States for training from Microsoft. Many people are trying to compete for a quota.

Xiao Jialin was no exception. After finding a seat, he took out a walkman from his backpack and was about to wear headphones, but Yu Xingyu said: "There are more than 80 people in the company now, many of whom are from prestigious universities. You are so bad in English and have no hope at all, so don't bother."

In May and June, all Snapdragon employees were fresh graduates, all of whom were energetic, vigorous and cohesive. However, with the increase in the number of employees and the change in the source, their values ​​began to become chaotic. Some were proactive, some were step by step, and some were just passing by. Xiao Jialin was an activist, and he was not interested in this argument and retorted: "How can you know if you don't try it?"

"Then try it." Yu Xingyu has been working for five or six years and has long become an old man. He disagreed with this kind of enthusiasm. He leaned on the back of the chair and closed his eyes and said, "I'll take a look for a while and call me when I'm about to arrive at the institute."

While Xiao Jialin was practicing English in the Grand Bus, Du Qiu was driving gtr and preparing to go to the hotel to meet Jin Ning.

"The overall atmosphere of the company is pretty good now, but its work attitude is not as good as before, especially those programmers who have been poached from other companies. The way of thinking is very different from those we trained by ourselves. They are slow to do things, don't like to cooperate, and like to say strange things, especially when working overtime." Jiang Danfeng flipped through the notepad, read the names of several people, and then suggested: "When you say more harsh words later, control them well. If it really doesn't work, fire a few people on the spot, otherwise no one will be willing to work overtime in the future."

Which programmer doesn't hate this thing about overtime...

Although Du Qiu sat on the boss's head, his mentality was a bit biased. While driving at a speed of about 30 kilometers per hour, he said: "Relying on coercion alone will probably backfire. You have to give some sweetness to tempt them and let them take the initiative."

"We have given a lot of sweetness. Everyone's salary is several times higher than the original unit!"

"Your face is like a woman named Zhou Baoshou."

"Do you think you want to be a Zhou shave?" Jiang Danfeng rolled his eyes wide, gave him a helpless look, and said, "The company doesn't even have a personal affairs department. Qin Mu is fine, he is very strict. Xiao Wu and He Lixing are just busy with technology and don't care about it at all. Whenever there is any trouble, they will throw it to me to solve it. I am just a small administrative manager. I can't fire employees or deduct employees' salaries. Do you know how difficult it is?"

Du Qiu nodded and said, "Report the names of the people you just pronounced just now, and I'll deal with it."

"It's better to build the Human Resources Department quickly." Jiang Danfeng read the name again, then put away the notepad, and complained: "Mr. Chen is too ambitious and insists on digging his classmate who works in McKinsey to do management, which is a waste of time. Our company is so small now that we don't use such high-end management talents at all. Moreover, McKinsey's treatment is well-known. Not only is the salary high, but he will also provide loans to send employees to famous universities such as Harvard to study in MBA. If I were me, I would definitely not change jobs to Yuncheng."

"Let him try it. If we really dig it up, we will save a lot of worry in the future."

The Internet industry is a new thing and is very different from traditional industries. If you copy traditional management methods, no matter how strong the technology is, it will only make the company rigid and lose its competitiveness. The most typical example is Microsoft after Bill Gates retired. Although its strength is still extremely strong, it has suffered a crushing defeat in many fields and fell into a "lost 10 years."
