Back to 2003

Tianying has one webmaster, two deputy webmasters, three technical staff and ten website editors.

Tang Qinghua invited many people, and those who were finally willing to go to Xidu included deputy webmaster Wang Yuke, three technical staff, and seven editorial staff.The treatment offered by Feiniao is more than twice that of Tianying. These people are naturally willing to go, and those who don't go are due to family reasons.

"Comrade Wang Yuke——"

Tang Qinghua approached Wang Yuke: "You are now officially hired as the webmaster and deputy general manager of Tianying Literature. The basic salary is 8000 yuan, five insurances and one housing fund, plus performance and year-end bonus, the annual income is no less than 12 yuan."

"It's so high!"

Wang Yuke was shocked when he heard this.

He serves as the deputy webmaster at Lao Tianying, and his monthly income is only 4000 yuan. With bonuses and other bonuses included, the annual income is only 6 yuan.As soon as Feiniao opened his mouth, he doubled his salary.

"As a senior executive of the company, there will also be job shares, etc. The details will have to wait until the website settles down."

Tang Qinghua spoke again.

Wang Yuke beamed with joy, and the deputy station manager over there was even more envious and regretted his refusal.

……

Feiniao uses three game servers, which are temporarily used as Skyhawk's new servers.

In order not to affect the user experience, all data transfer was done at night, which made it even more troublesome and took a full week.

While handing over data, we are recruiting editors!

Tianying released news on its website and related forums, recruiting experienced editors and technicians with high salaries. Unlike other websites that are secretive about salaries, Tianying directly released the basic salary - the monthly salary of senior editors is more than 5000, and the monthly salary of technicians is more than 6000. In addition to performance bonus and year-end bonus, five insurances and one fund are paid at the same time.

This time, it immediately caused a sensation!

At this time, the salary of online article editors on various websites was around 2000-3000. Even in expensive Shanghai, the salary was only between 3000-4000. Tianying raised the industry standards as soon as he came, which was simply a mess.

"I'll go with it. How good is the editor's treatment at Tianying? I only earn 2500 a month."

"I only have 2300 yuan, and our editor-in-chief only has 4000 yuan... I want to go to Tianying!"

"I heard that Tianying was acquired by Feiniao, and the salary will be doubled. I am ready to change jobs."

"It just so happened that the website was shut down. I went to Tianying to find out the truth for everyone."

"Upstairs, be sure to tell us when you get there so we can be mentally prepared."

There was a big shock in the editorial circle.

Although the job in the editing industry is easy, who doesn’t want to pay more?The editors of men's videos are all men. Many of them need to fall in love and support their families, and they all look forward to more income.

As a result, before the handover was completed, many editors from websites such as Reading and Writing, Cuiweiju, and Crawling quietly came to Xiyang to apply for jobs... It happened that the website was shut down, so it was best to take the opportunity to resign.

By the time Wang Yuke and others completed the handover and came to Xidu with salutes, fifteen editors had been recruited, bringing the number of chief editors to more than twenty, and there were seven or eight programmers, all from many old websites.

On September [-]st, the news of Feiniao.com’s acquisition of Tianying Literature was officially announced!

But the purchase price is not 880 million, but a full 2000 million... This is what Feiniao and Webmaster Kong agreed. For this reason, Feiniao gave Webmaster Kong an additional 50 as "hush money" to express Feiniao's support for Tianying. Attention... but also to prove that Sky Eagle is not weaker than Singularity now.

For a time, there was a lot of discussion in major forums.

The reactions of various parties are also different.

"Holy crap, a book site can actually sell for 2000 million? This is too outrageous!"

"Don't underestimate Tianying. Now that all the major book sites are blocked, it has counterattacked Singularity and risen strongly, becoming the two giants in the online literature industry. If Feiniao.com is willing to promote it at a high price, it is even expected to become the overlord of the online literature industry in the future. .”

"Isn't it rumored that Shengda is going to acquire Singularity? Why did Feiniao stay silent and buy Sky Eagle? Are you going to go against Shengda?"

"It is said that Feiniao once owned a part of Singularity, and later sold it to Shengda at a high price...and now it suddenly buys Tianying. Is there any explosive inside information in this?"

No matter who I know on the Internet, they all commented on this breaking news.

Singularity Chinese website, the five founders gathered together.

"He actually acquired Sky Eagle. Now we have a rival." Zang Jian was speechless.

"To be honest, I would rather he bought our singularity... I have met this person several times, and his insight and prediction of the future are simply beyond imagination..." Bao Jianfeng smiled bitterly, shrug.

"Hurry up and talk to Shengda, otherwise we will be in big trouble if we let Tianying go ahead."

"I estimate that once this news comes out, our purchase price will not be able to increase."

Thinking of this, several people smiled bitterly.

They had reached a basic consensus with Shengda before, but there were still differences on price.

The price they requested was a total price of 5000 million, which meant that they accounted for 70.00%, and Shengda had to pay 500 million.

Shengda's estimated total price was 4000 million, but the total price was 1000 million less, and the five of them were 700 million less.

Now it seems that I can only agree to the other party!

……

Sijixuan is already overcrowded.

The new office building had just started construction, so Feiniao rented a separate office floor for Tianying, which was not far from Sijixuan.

Among the newly recruited personnel, one is named Zeng Qinghe, who is temporarily serving as deputy editor-in-chief. Another person was once the technical backbone of Cuiweiju and is temporarily serving as deputy director of the technology department... The reason why they are all deputy positions is to give everyone hope that the new company In the new environment, as long as you have the ability, you can be promoted or even replaced by them.

In the afternoon, the company held its first all-staff meeting.

Zhao Zhuoyan from Feiniao's side was present in person, and Tang Qinghua had nothing to do and sat together to listen.

"Everyone, from now on we are all colleagues!"

Zhao Zhuoyan spoke on behalf of Feiniao Corporation: "The purpose of Feiniao's wholly-owned acquisition of Tianying is to give Tianying a better future. You are all old people in the industry. Let's chat casually today. What do you think about Tianying? What do you think about it? In what direction will the future develop... please feel free to speak out."

Everyone looked at me and I looked at you, but they didn't speak immediately.

Wang Yuke was the first to speak: "Let me talk about it! With the development of Tianying Literature, both content and traffic have reached a certain scale, but there is an important problem, that is, there are too few profit points."

"Tianying currently has three profit points: 10. Advertising fees. [-]. VIP income. [-]. Book publishing income. The total of these three points combined is less than [-] yuan per month, excluding server expenses, personnel salaries, and publicity expenses. , there is almost no surplus.”

"My opinion is: on the one hand, increase the publicity and exposure of the website to attract more readers, and at the same time increase VIP good books on the website to convert more ordinary readers into VIP readers, thereby increasing everyone's income. "

"On the other hand, we need to find and cultivate outstanding authors from among the authors signed by the website, and publish physical books. From the above three aspects, physical books have the highest income, so I think this should be the focus."

Wang Yuke said this and said no more.
