Top of the big era

Xu Liangjie is well-known in Silicon Valley and one of the most accomplished Chinese.

Now, he is the vice president of eBay.

After the contract expired, he left and went to Cisco, where he was responsible for online business, including audio, video, web conferencing systems, instant messaging, cloud computing applications and social platforms. The only Chinese executive.

On the National Day of 2009, as a representative of overseas Chinese entrepreneurs, he went to the city gate to watch the ceremony.

Later, when Wang Wang came to power and the policy changed, it was not appropriate for a company like Cisco, which mastered core technology, to hire a Chinese executive.

Then, shocking news broke out in the domestic Internet circle.

Xu Liangjie came out for the second time and returned to China to join Sina, serving as the president, chief technology officer, and leading the Weibo business.

Zhou Buqi had never heard of such a person in his previous life, but judging from the current situation, he knew that this guy was a big bull, and his reputation was worthless.

He had read the previous material.

Xu Liangjie is passionate about the development of technology and has been using his spare time to help young entrepreneurs change their lives and the world through technological innovation. He is even the vice chairman of the Chinese American Association for Science and Technology.

For such talents, Zhou Buqi must of course show the greatest sincerity.

Ziwei Star has an option pool for the introduction of special talents, and can get up to 10 million option stocks. Liu Qing got 8 million shares, and He Yang got 10 million shares before.

For Mr. Xu Liangjie, of course it is also the highest standard.

Based on the current valuation of Ziweixing's market at about US$600 million, once all the shares are acquired, the value will exceed US$5 million. From the current point of view, the value of this share price is definitely not as good as the conditions offered by eBay.

The condition that eBay offered was shares worth 12 million US dollars, and the exercise period was only 3 years. Counting from 2005, the set can be resolved in 2008.

But the problem is that people at this level cannot be so short-sighted.

What is the prospect of eBay?

What is the future of Ziweixing?

Even though Ziwei Star's current scale is still relatively small, not even a fraction of eBay's fraction, but under He Yang's plan, the system has been established and is flourishing day by day.

After Zhou Buqi issued 10 million stock chips, the issue of interests was no longer a problem.

This is like a dream, as long as you believe it, it is true, and work hard for it, and realize all the scenes in the dream.

Of course, the benefit of this level of talent is only one aspect of job hopping.

Especially for this kind of cross-border job hopping, once the decision is made, the whole family will have to relocate, taking career risks and family risks.

It is also necessary to look at Ziweixing's strategic planning as a whole.

Zhou Buqi's persistent pursuit of technology has won Xu Liangjie's appetite.

The next step is to get to know each other more deeply.

We need to look at it from more aspects and more angles.

Talk about history, humanities, philosophy, war, technological development, alien life, democracy and freedom, and a harmonious society... From the coffee shop to the restaurant, from the fitness club to the Japanese tea room, and finally back to the hotel.

What is the most important job-hopping?

The bottom line is money, the second is the company's development plan, and the top...is to choose a leader who can recognize himself and form benefits.

Without a boss who fully supports him, everything is in vain.

If Xu Liangjie joins Ziwei Star, he must be a senior vice president, and he only needs to report to Zhou Buqi, the chairman, CEO, and president.

There must be a comprehensive understanding of each other.

Zhou Buqi was similar, this time he was recruited by a top executive of the company. Originally, he had placed hope in Wang Haoyang, thinking that he could form a check with He Yang and reach a balance, but within a month, he was subdued by He Yang.

Xu Liangjie's level must be enough.

But a more comprehensive investigation is also required.

Start with the details, share the views and opinions of the two on many issues, exchange opinions, and see if there is a consensus. If there are differences, whether they can express their views clearly and clearly in a short period of time, and form a basic consensus.

This basically paves the way for the company environment after joining the company.

However, for Zhou Buqi, there is another more important reason.

Calling Xu Liangjie to the hotel to be a light bulb, I... can get out of the gentleness, take a breath, and relax my tense nerves.

There are too many negative cases in "Zizhi Tongjian". In ancient times, there were many emperors who worked hard at the beginning of their ascension to the throne, but they didn't last long before they became immersed in beauty. This is a taboo. It is said that there was another emperor in the Ming Dynasty who indulged wildly after he ascended the throne, wishing to lie on women every day, and finally got lucky one night with eight beauties. After 29 days of being emperor happily, he was exhausted to death...

Learn from history.

There are too many negative teaching materials, Zhou Buqi is very clear-headed, knowing that his indulgence during this period is wrong, and enjoying is not the way of enjoying, it is a bit too much.

Must restraint.

If there is a lack of internal motivation, go outside to find motivation.

Xu Liangjie is just an opportunity.

Invite him to the hotel and talk all night long!

Many executives of giant companies change jobs, and they basically have to have this link.

There are three advantages -

First, the bigger the company, the greater the pressure, the more things to deal with, and the greater the responsibilities, which requires extremely strong energy and the ability to bear pressure. Many big leaders, whether in politics or business, are full of energy, and it is common to keep four or five hours of sleep a day.

Let's stay overnight first to see if the other party is fine and can resist.

If you stay up all night, your energy will be broken tomorrow, and you can't do anything, then you can only say goodbye. When the company encounters a crisis, or encounters an urgent task, it takes days and nights to turn around. Without a strong will quality, it is simply impossible to persevere.

Second, test the other party's state after a long period of non-rest, and whether the mind can stay clear.

For the executives of the company, no matter what the situation is, anger, grievance, fatigue, sadness, pain, joy, horror... must stay sober.

The core challenge of managing a large team is the judgment of the technical direction, because with such a large team, if there is no clear judgment or a very deep understanding of this direction, it is very likely that a small decision will lead to many people underneath. To spend time and energy in the wrong direction, it is very important to understand the professionalism, depth and breadth of technology.

What Xu Liangjie does is technical direction.

Third, talk all night long, what are you talking about?

The two had met since morning and started chatting. Chatted all afternoon, all night, and then all night?

The two elders are sitting and chatting, why can they talk for such a long time, as if they can't finish talking in a lifetime?

This will test each other's emotional intelligence, as well as the degree of cognitive fit between the two parties.

The more common discourse, the higher the degree of fit.

It will ignore the passage of time, which is the beginning of a tacit understanding between the two.

Therefore, the long talk all night is the ultimate interview between the two parties.

At this level, the inspection of resume, resume, technical ability, and management ability is no longer important, but the inspection of character, temperament, philosophy, and values.

Surprisingly, Liu Qing stayed with her all the time.

And participated in it, shared views and exchanged opinions on many issues.

It can be seen that she was deeply influenced by her father, and firmly believed in the traditional Chinese philosophy, and the concept of putting people first was particularly profound. On the contrary, he sneered at the set of professional managers promoted by the American MBA.

During this process, she was also responsible for pouring wine and arranging supper. Later, I felt that drinking too much alcohol would affect my condition, so I changed to making tea. There was no Huaxia tea in the hotel, only Lipton black tea... I just used it.

Unknowingly, the sunlight slanted into the living room of the suite.

Zhou Buqi looked up, ho! The sun is shining!

Looking at the time, it was already past seven in the morning.

The three people in the room were all full of energy, without fatigue, and in a full and excited state of mind. It seemed that they had not stayed up all night, but had completed a ritual-like collision of thought sparks.

This night, Zhou Buqi was a bit overwhelmed with topics over and over again.

He can even clearly realize that among the three, his level is the worst. In many cases, he has never heard of the terms and theories they put forward.

Fortunately, he has been a human being in two lifetimes, and has dealt with all kinds of religions and streams. He doesn't have much knowledge at the top, but he has extraordinary knowledge at the bottom. Coupled with the advantage of foresight, he can often point out Xu Liangjie and Liu Qing's confusion about the future, looking unpredictable.

Although he doesn't talk much, but many times, it's like a finishing touch, and he can hit the point repeatedly, which is really surprising.

Xu Liangjie saw something special about Boss Zhou, his eyes glowed.

Liu Qing also had beautiful eyes, she leaned on her chin with her white and tender arms from time to time, listening attentively, with a sincere and teachable appearance.

"No, I have to go. I have to go to work today." Xu Liangjie looked at the time and couldn't hold on anymore. He asked for a day off yesterday, and it's not good to ask for another day off today.

Zhou Buqi asked, "Don't you need to take a break?"

Xu Liangjie waved his hands, stood up, and said with a smile: "It's okay, just go to the office and take a nap, I'm used to it."

Zhou Buqi apologized: "I'm so sorry to waste your day."

"You're welcome." Xu Liangjie smiled disapprovingly, and then said with emotion, "I learned a lot from Mr. Zhou this evening. Mr. Zhou...is really young and promising, and his insights are amazing."

Zhou Buqi laughed and said, "That's it. I won't be able to stay in the United States for too long. There are still a lot of things waiting for me to deal with at the company, so I can only wait for the good news from across the ocean."

"By the way, if I really join Ziwei Star, what business will I be in charge of?"

"All technology-related online businesses."

"Ok, I see."

After seeing off Xu Liangjie, Zhou Buqi finally couldn't help it, and yawned long.

I don't know if it's real or fake.

Liu Qing frowned, "Sleeping now?"

"Well, tired."

"Aren't you very energetic just now?"

"It's stiff, I can't do it, I'm sleepy, oops, I fell asleep..."

2021 is the new year, I wish you all good health.
