In his previous life, Zhou Hao was a technical person and didn't know much about content operations, but he had heard of Nie Yuan's name. He could be said to be the mainstay of Sina and did a great job in content operations. If he could really be poached, Zhou Hao's portal plan would be completed and he would be the chief content operations officer. This person was capable enough and could be used at least until after 2010.

So Zhou Hao called Liu Qiangdong and asked him if he knew Nie Yuan. Liu Qiangdong replied: I have seen him, but not well.

Nie Yuan was almost forty years old, a few years older than Liu Qiangdong. The two had met at an alumni reunion and knew each other, but they were not very close.

But they were all alumni, which was good. Even if they were not familiar with each other, they could find a middleman to bring them together. So, when Liu Qiangdong heard about Zhou Hao's needs, he immediately agreed and planned to find an alumnus who was familiar with both of them to help bring them together, and then slowly test the waters.

Zhou Hao was also relieved. Nie Yuan worked at New Sina for nearly twenty years in his previous life, but was forced to leave in the end. This shows that this person is very determined. It is a bit troublesome to poach such a person, and the success rate is not high. He can only take a roundabout way and ask Liu Qiangdong to help sound out the situation, and then find the gap between him and New Sina.

Since Sina is still determined to become UC, Zhou Hao will regard it as the next enemy. Since Xu Bin is determined to join Sina and become the enemy of Haobo Technology, Zhou Hao will also regard him as the next target to be destroyed. He is now giving this team a real way to survive. If they don't want it, then he will give them a real dead end. This time he will not give them any room for choice.

Zhou Hao's idea is to get rid of Sina's core business first, so the portal must be the focus. Zhou Hao must do it, and he must make it the best in the country. Before the advent of mobile Internet, owning a portal with huge traffic is of great significance.

As for the navigation station, Zhou Hao will definitely take action, and he is determined to get hao123.

After entrusting Liu Qiangdong with the task of recruiting Nie Yuan, Zhou Hao called Lu Nan to his office and told him the results of his recent interview with Xu Bin.

Even a tech geek like Lu Nan realized that there was something fishy going on. In his opinion, there was no need for Xu Bin to make the interview with Zhou Hao so awkward. Even if he was determined to go to Sina, he shouldn't have done it so drastically. But Lu Nan couldn't understand what benefit Xu Bin would gain from doing this.

Zhou Hao said, "Pay attention to what he tells me about the conversation after he returns. I suspect Sina promised him a lot of benefits. If he attributes the failure of the negotiation to Haobo Technology, then my guess is correct."

Lu Nan nodded. "If Mr. Xu really accepts Sina's benefits, what should we do? Mr. Xu is very popular in the QQ team. If he speaks for Sina, most people will follow him."

Zhou Hao said: "It is his freedom to go wherever he wants. It is also the freedom for others to follow him. We don't have to mind. Those who join us are comrades, those who join a third party are friends, and those who join our opponents are opponents. Since we are opponents, we should compete reasonably and legally."

Lu Nan didn't say anything more and said to Zhou Hao, "Then I'll go back and keep an eye on it."

The night Xu Bin left Haobo Technology, he informed everyone in the group chat of his resigned colleagues, "Sina was very straightforward. They promised a salary premium and a resettlement allowance, and all we had to do was sign. Haobo Technology was not sincere and only gave us the original salary standard. In addition, the boss of Haobo Technology was too arrogant and looked down on us, the defeated ones. If we went there, we would also be suppressed by the original team."

Such a strong contrast immediately gave the QQ team the answer. Even if the treatment was the same, they were unwilling to join Haobo Technology as losers, because they believed that they would be looked down upon if they went to Haobo Technology.

What's more, Sina's treatment is better than Haobo Technology's. If the 30% premium was placed in the previous Tencent, it would not have been possible to increase it within one or two years. So now everyone is suddenly relieved and seems to see new hope.

Most people have not thought about a long-term question, that is, is it a future for them to go to Sina and help Sina develop instant messaging software? The pace of Haobo Technology destroying QQ can be described as overwhelming and powerful. Once Haobo Technology shows its fangs, QQ will basically have no chance to struggle. They have already been defeated once. What can they use to fight Haobo Technology again when they go to Sina?

What they see now is that Sina offers better treatment, but they have not thought about whether Sina can succeed in doing this, nor have they considered what to do if Sina fails. Although the salary is 30% higher, who knows how long they can get this salary.

Blindly looking at salary when changing jobs without considering the company's strength and development prospects is the biggest taboo in job hopping, especially joining a newly formed department of a company. Because for the company, the new business is just an attempt, and the company still has the support of the old business. If the new business fails, the worst that can happen is that it will be abandoned and the new team will be disbanded on the spot to stop the loss in time, which will not have much impact on the company as a whole. But those new employees who switch jobs for the new business will be miserable. They can get one or half a month's salary compensation at most, but their careers will have a huge stain.

For Zhou Hao, recruiting the QQ team with the original salary was already very generous. After all, PP is the number one in the industry and currently has more than 90% market share in the domestic instant messaging field. Their salary may not be as high as that of New Sina if they join Haobo Technology, but it is more stable and promising than New Sina. If they can't see this, then there is nothing to be done.

If they are laid off by Sina again in the future, their work experience in the past few years will have two major stains, and it will be difficult for them to find a suitable job again. Zhou Hao will then open the door to these people, but the salary they receive will only be 80% of what they received during their time at Tencent, and they will be completely isolated from the core departments, forced to become the lowest-level code farmers, and able to do the job if they want, and get out if they don't.

……

Liu Qiangdong soon contacted Nie Yuan through an old schoolmate. The old schoolmates organized a dinner party, and Liu Qiangdong and Nie Yuan sat together for a meal. After the meal, Liu Qiangdong said to Zhou Hao: "Nie Yuan is an idealist, and he has devoted a lot of effort to Sina. It is probably difficult to poach him."

Zhou Hao said, "I don't believe it. In this world, apart from family affection, no other affection is truly stable. Love is fucking unreliable, so what's the point of an employment relationship?"

Liu Qiangdong smiled and said, "You make it sound easy. Take Guo Kaiyu and Lu Yatong, your subordinates, for example. These two people trust you so much, and you also trust them and are willing to give them power to do what they want to try. Moreover, they have achieved results under you, and you have also given them considerable salaries and stock options. Do you think that if someone wants to poach them now, can they do so?"

Zhou Hao said: "It is definitely possible to dig it out, but it depends on how to dig it out and what conditions are used. What impresses a person is not necessarily money or sincerity, but a thought, a vision, a perfect image display. Even those lovers who are stronger than gold will be amazed by a passerby at a certain moment and be moved. Otherwise, how do you think those unbreakable relationships are finally interfered with by a third party?"

Liu Qiangdong asked Zhou Hao: "You've said so much, so how are you going to poach him?"

Zhou Hao said frankly: "I haven't thought about it yet."

Liu Qiangdong said: "Well, it's the same as not saying anything."

Zhou Hao asked him: "Did you two talk about your views on the Internet during dinner? Did he talk about his ambitions in the Internet field?"

"Yes." Liu Qiangdong said: "He is very persistent about portals, and believes that they are the key link for people to go online and understand the world, so he hopes to become the best news portal in the country. He has been working towards this goal for many years at Sina, and he regards Sina as his own child."

Zhou Hao nodded and pondered to himself, "Treat Sina as his own child? Okay, then I'll start with his child."

Zhou Hao found Guo Kaiyu and put forward a small technical request, that is, the pp server must screen the URL links sent by users in the future.

While identifying the URLs, two supporting functions must be developed. The first one is to develop a URL source authentication for different websites, namely the green list, white list and red list. If it is a website on the green list, when the user sends the URL of the website in the pp, a supporting prompt will be given to remind the user that the website has passed the authentication and is very safe; if it is on the white list, the user will be given a vague prompt of an unknown source, allowing the user to consider whether to open it; if it is on the red list, a dangerous website will be directly prompted, allowing the user to click with caution.

The second supporting development function is to have the function of completely blocking designated website links. For example, if you want to block Sina in the entire pp, then users are not allowed to post Sina's URL in pp chat, group chat, space, log, game chat, message and other places where information can be posted. Once it is sent, the system will directly block it.

Guo Kaiyu said: "The idea of ​​green list, white list and red list is very good. It can help users mark many websites with Trojans, viruses and pranks, which will increase the safety of users' Internet access. But will the blocking function affect the user experience? And will it violate industry ethics?"

Zhou Hao smiled contemptuously: "We have made so many features to enhance the user experience, and it is harmless to occasionally have some settings that affect the user experience. As for industry ethics... as long as it does not violate national laws, we can do anything within our own product system. It is up to us to block who we want. As for competitors, it is enough to deal with the law. What's more, many companies do not even care about the law when competing, so why should we care about industry ethics."
