Top of the big era

Zhou Buqi felt that he had class limitations.

Others are full of admiration for Bill Gates. Even Lao Zhang, when communicating with the richest man, his eyes seemed to be shining. The most exaggerated one was the symposium held in the auditorium of Tsinghua University. More than 200 police officers were dispatched from the capital to protect the scene.

It's winter break and the undergraduates are away.

There are only a few doctoral students, graduate students and foreign students left in the school. But this is Zhongguancun, and there are too many IT technical talents. After hearing the news, they all flocked like worship.

The scene is not much worse than a star.

Zhou Buqi didn't feel this way, he felt that the richest man in the world was just like that, nothing special. He already got the admission ticket, and wanted to sneak Wu Yu into the auditorium to listen to what the richest man had to say.

But later I heard that there were so many people, so I stopped joining in the fun.

Anyway, the itinerary is arranged.

On the 25th, I will come to China in the morning and have talks with the leaders; in the afternoon, I will discuss cooperation matters with CNNIC.

On the 26th, go to Tsinghua University Auditorium for lectures in the morning; visit Ziweixing in the afternoon.

On the 27th, I went to visit places of interest in the morning; in the afternoon, I went to CNNIC to determine the basic cooperation method, and then handed over the work to Microsoft China to start cooperation. Depart for home in the evening.

Bill Gates gave a lecture in Ziweixing's large conference room. The lecture lasted about 40 minutes, and the content was much deeper than that in the Tsinghua University auditorium in the morning.

It talks about the development trend of artificial intelligence, saying that this generation will use the Internet to change the world, and encourages everyone to work together to create a new era.

The conference room is too small and there are too many fans.

Even the people from Sohu ran down.

We can only take pictures of the lecture process and put it on the intranet for everyone to watch. The richest man knew everyone's enthusiasm, so he walked patiently among the three floors, waved hello to the employees, and had the opportunity to get in close contact with everyone.

Zhou Buqi couldn't bear to watch the whole process, it was really hard work.

I feel that people's temperament is really good, and their self-cultivation is better than myself, and they still need to learn.

After working for three hours, I finally had time to go to the office, sit down, drink some water and take a rest.

The content of the communication mainly revolves around Microsoft China.

The potential of Ziwei Star is obvious to all.

Bill Gates very much hoped to further promote the cooperative relationship between the two companies, and he made no secret of his ambition for the domestic market.

Then, he gave a series of data.

Really scary.

Microsoft China now has 3,000 employees, and the annual human resource cost is as high as 150 million US dollars!

In other words, Microsoft China spends up to 500,000 US dollars on recruitment, salary, benefits, personal tax, seven insurances and one housing fund, office equipment, corporate training, team building, and business trip reimbursement for each employee every year!

This year, Microsoft China will continue to expand its territory, attack across the board under the strategic thinking of the headquarters, continue to expand the Chinese market, buy land in the capital and Shanghai, and start construction of two R\u0026D technology parks at the same time.

At the same time, an additional investment of 60 million US dollars will be made to expand the enrollment of 1,200 people in China.

Another $500,000 per person standard.

Sure enough, it is the world's largest Big Mac, rich and powerful.

This year, Microsoft has launched a heavy blow. In January, it launched the vista system and office 2007 at the same time. At the end of the year, it will also launch a new version of the database and compilation system. While strengthening the dominance of the software market, it will also further strengthen the cultivation of the online market, such as the latest intelligence, Microsoft will invest in Facebook.

Liu Qing is a director of Facebook, and she sent back first-hand information, probably Zuckerberg's valuation of Facebook is 20 billion U.S. dollars, and Microsoft's valuation is 8 billion U.S. dollars... The two sides are in a tug-of-war negotiation.

The news was astonishing.

Facebook's user scale is similar to that of Friends.com.

The ability to make money is far inferior to Friends.com.

The only advantage is that Facebook is an American company with a global market and a global talent supply backed by Silicon Valley, with a brighter future.

But Friends.com is backed by a large market with a population of 1.3 billion, so the difference is not far behind!

More importantly, Ziweixing not only owns Friends.com, but also campus business groups, micro-point business groups, search business groups and SP business groups.

The existing scale is much larger than Facebook!

Facebook is valued at 20 billion US dollars, how much can Ziweixing’s valuation be?

Microsoft's investment in Facebook is definitely a good thing. Zhou Buqi thought about it secretly, and contacted Zuckerberg later to facilitate the cooperation between the two parties.

This is very meaningful for Ziweixing.

With Microsoft and Facebook as benchmarks, Ziweixing will have a reference for its financing.

Microsoft is a giant, and basically participates in IT-related projects, including of course the most popular mobile field.

Bill Gates was very interested when he heard that Ziweixing was planning to establish a subsidiary to produce mobile phones. He said with a smile, "This year, Microsoft China's R\u0026D budget will increase by about 40%. The increased cost will be applied to the mobile software market, such as mobile-based Web services, digital entertainment and multimedia applications."

Zhou Buqi accepted it immediately, saying that he was looking forward to the cooperation between the two companies in the mobile field.

But I don't think so in my heart.

This year, Microsoft headquarters was full of ambition and wanted to make a big effort, but Microsoft China stopped working. Not to mention anything else, to cultivate talents in China, one person spends 500,000 U.S. dollars a year, which is nearly 4 million Huaxia coins. What is this for?

It can be seen that the thinking has not been reversed, and the Silicon Valley method is used in China.

He Yang told Zhou Buqi that there is an unspoken rule for the recruitment of domestic technology companies: PSD.

P, is poor, to be born in poverty, to be poor. It is best to carry a mortgage and a car loan. There is huge pressure, and you can only work like an old scalper.

S, is smart, to be smart and capable. Simple hard work is not enough, you must be smart and learn things quickly, so that you can adapt to the ever-changing rhythm of Internet technology changes.

D, is Desire, to be full of ambition. If you want to make more money and take more shares, you must have desire. If it was Yuanwei Group, there would be no need for such explosive people, but for Internet companies, the more such people, the better. I am not afraid that you have ambitions, but I am afraid that your ambitions are too small.

Of these three points, poverty is the most important.

Because this is the internal motivation of an employee. After all, there are very few people who strive for their ideals, and most of them work for their lives.

Therefore, when designing the salary structure, it must be in the form of lower salary plus higher stock.

Can't make him too rich.

Even from the perspective of the company, it is more cost-effective to give high wages, because the future value of the stock is too high, far exceeding that salary. The motivational effect on employees can be different.

If employees have more money and more money in their hands, they will have the confidence to speak out at work, dare to disobey orders, dare to steal, rape and play tricks, anyway, they can survive after leaving the job.

Therefore, for domestic high-tech companies, it is necessary to clean up old employees in a timely manner. On the one hand, I am too old to withstand high-intensity work. On the one hand... it is that they have worked for so many years and are rich.

We should get rid of the rich and replace them with a new batch of poor young people. They have no money and can only work hard. When I have saved enough money, I will get married, take out a loan to buy a house and a car, and continue to work hard. When the mortgage and car loans are paid off and the pressure of life is gone, they should be eliminated.

Microsoft China doesn't understand the national conditions, so they pay high salaries when they come up, and their combat effectiveness is definitely not high.

...

5th floor, friend network.

A group of high-tech talents gathered around the computer, looking very excited.

This is just passed back from the United States, it is the code of the open platform.

Zhou Buqi also went to join in the fun, but was pushed back by some unfamiliar technicians, "Boss, you can't understand? What are you squeezing?"

I had no choice but to go to Zhang Yiming's office.

"The significance of an open platform is too important!"

Zhang Yiming said excitedly.

Zhou Buqi said: "That's for sure. This is my strategic plan. Otherwise, I would travel thousands of miles to the United States to invest. Why? Hmph, Wang Haoyang was short-sighted, and he was talking to me at the beginning. Do you understand now?"

Zhang Yiming said: "The main content of Friends.com is social games. But we are not a game company. There are only more than 50 people in the game group. "Happy Farm" has almost five web games. Moreover, innovation is also a problem. If you want to have vitality, open the API and let more game manufacturers participate, it is a very correct move."

Zhou Buqi was very proud and said with a smile: "That's for sure. The three major ways to monetize traffic are advertisements, e-commerce and games. Now that there are advertisements, the negotiations on the Taobao channel have also been completed. The last step is games. Our social The games are all free, but many other web games are different, you can charge for items.”

Zhang Yiming mused: "I think it's still a free game, and the method of advertising is the main method."

Zhou Buqi waved his hand, "You can figure it out."

"How about the specific commission?"

"Don't worry, we'll discuss it later. You should first contact those web game companies in China and invite them to our open platform. They have no traffic and no reputation. With the help of Friends.com, many small web game manufacturers can survive .By the way, let me tell you another thing, Dr. Wang Jian from Microsoft R\u0026D Institute, do you still have contact?"

"Yes, we have been cooperating on data processing algorithms, and we have to pay them a technical service fee of 250,000 per month."

"Action this year!"

"ah?"

Zhang Yiming was slightly taken aback.

Zhou Buqi snorted: "Bill Gates is ambitious and wants to recruit troops on a large scale in the country, but he doesn't understand the national conditions at all. Walking on the wrong path, the harder you work, the bigger the mistakes will be. I think this year Microsoft China If something happens, it is a good opportunity for us to poach people."

"Really dig?"

"Well, after the financing is over, we will have confidence and strength, so let Wang Jianliang show his muscles and let him come over and develop cloud computing!"
