Pioneer of the Rebirth Era

After returning to the Magic City, Yang Dongxu basically stayed at Honor Mobile.

Compared with other companies, they are on the right track and running normally. It can be said that smartphones are developing rapidly every day, and they are constantly encountering problems of one kind or another.

For example, when the ability to cut fruit on smartphones caught everyone’s attention, many gamers discovered that there was still an unexplored virgin land of mobile games.

Countless game companies with their own ideas have begun to quietly spend a lot of money on mobile games. After all, compared to the tens or even hundreds of millions of R&D funds and operating costs for PC games.

The capital that a small mobile game seems to require is undoubtedly only one-tenth of that of a PC game, or even less.

Therefore, various mobile games began to appear during this period, which not only opened up a new source of revenue for Honor mobile phones, but also brought new challenges to smartphones.

The new financial resources are easy to understand, because if the game wants to be included in the software of Honor mobile phone, it has to pay. The fee is not much, only 10% of the software fee is charged.

Compared with the 20-30% various management and operating expenses of later generations of Apple, this charge is undoubtedly very conscientious.

However, in addition to software charges, these game companies cannot do without Alipay if they want players to recharge, and Alipay can also charge a sum of money for using Alipay.

So what I have to say is that Ma Fengyun’s vision in making Alipay independent in his previous life was not very precise.

But let’s not mention this for now, let’s return to the matter of charging for mobile games on Honor mobile phones.

This management fee is not free, it is for doing something.

For example, while charging, you have the obligation to make the smartphone platform a good one, right?

How to make the game run more smoothly on the mobile phone system and give players the best experience. This is a great challenge for both mobile phone hardware and software.

Therefore, how to improve system performance? How to improve the computing power of mobile phone chips to make the game picture quality higher-definition and smoother? How to increase the game hard drive space so that players’ mobile phone memory will not be too crowded.

This is a new challenge for Honor mobile phones.

Of course, it is a challenge but also an opportunity, and it is also an important factor in whether smart phones can occupy the market in the future.

A smartphone that cannot even run mobile games smoothly will probably have to go to Africa to see the market. In the mainstream smartphone market, it is simply untenable and no customers are willing to buy it.

Of course, in addition to mobile games, there is also a short video platform that seems to be very similar to YY, but has better and more popular prestige, and finally dominates the market.

As long as the rhythm is correct, and nothing else, as long as there are no earth-shaking differences in mobile phone hardware in the next ten years, Yang Dongxu can still sit firmly on Diaoyutai by relying on these software alone.

So now we have to break the first hard nut - mobile games!

Although Gang Leader Qiao is powerful, he is optimistic about the future of smartphones, but he is not as clear as Yang Dongxu about what the market will be like after the launch of smartphones and how the supporting facilities will be improved.

Therefore, the current focus of Apple and most smartphones is to produce smartphones to achieve a complete change in the traditional sense of mobile phones.

Therefore, even for Gang Leader Qiao, the performance of smartphones that he cares about is still functions in the traditional sense.

For example, improve the pixels of mobile phone cameras and turn mobile phones into simpler digital cameras.

Integrating into smartphones, the tactile feel of the smartphone's smart screen, the smoothness of the system's operations and other performances. Games are only one of the functions that all Qiao Bangzhu cares about, but they are not all.

Even though he has played cutting apples on the Honor phone, it feels pretty good.

But this game is more of a novelty. In fact, after playing it for a while, it becomes boring.

Therefore, in his opinion, the most basic performance of the mobile phone is his biggest reliance on defeating the Honor mobile phone.

With this kind of blind spot awareness, mobile games can actually not only add a source of revenue to Honor mobile phones.

At the same time, it is also one of the stepping stones for Honor to once again compete with Apple when its mobile phones are launched next year.

The control upstream of the production chain focuses on improving the experience of chat software and mobile game software on the premise of ensuring that the experience of other functions of the smartphone is not bad.

This time, Honor Mobile will not have to worry about its dominant position in the next five years. Therefore, this development direction must be implemented thoroughly as soon as possible.

Yang Dongxu needs to stay in the company and keep an eye on changes so that he can feel more at ease.

"In fact, the software is not a big problem. What is currently restricted is the hardware. Whether it is the computing power of the mobile phone chip, the space of the memory card, or even the heating problem of the mobile phone motherboard, there is actually no way to effectively solve it."

Lei Jun said helplessly.

You have to say that the smartphone system cannot maximize the hardware functions. This is its responsibility.

But now Honor's Pangu Intelligent System is three versions higher than the current system. But the hardware functions can't keep up, and there's really nothing he can do about it.

"The functions of deep image quality processing and high-definition video smoothness should be strengthened. The hardware can be handed over to Dongxu Technology.

They are also looking for hardware partners there. It is a bit unrealistic for one person to handle all the hardware.

Therefore, what Honor needs to do in the future is to ensure the superiority of Pangu intelligent system computing and the leadership in mobile phone chip design.

As for mobile phone cameras, motherboards, and batteries, just look for top partners around the world.

At the same time, we outsource mobile phone production to reduce the burden on the production line.

Another thing is to explain to those game companies that are preparing to make mobile games. The games they make must adapt to the calculations of the Pangu system, rather than how an intelligent system can adapt to the programs developed by mobile game companies. There is no such thing as this in the world."

"I have already been communicating in this regard and require that their game version must keep up with the real-time updates of the Pangu system's calculations," Lei Jun said.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Are there any problems that need to be solved now?" Yang Dongxu asked.

"Programmers." Lei Jun said directly, "Most of the company's programmers are now brought from Dongxu Technology.

To be honest, their technical abilities are good, but they are all too old. At present, the training of programmers in China is not in place at all, so many new people have to be trained from scratch, and the talent ladder is slightly broken."

For a while in later generations, the news that major top Internet companies, such as Alibaba, NetEase, and Tencent, were laying off programmers over the age of 35 can be said to have flooded the screen.

It stands to reason that these programmers can work in large companies and have been working for so many years. There is no doubt about their work ability.

Moreover, after working for so many years, I have extremely rich personal work experience. If you put such a capable old employee in other companies, you should be a treasure, for fear of being poached by others.

Why do major Internet companies lay off employees?

This is obviously not a financial crisis in the company's operations. After all, the company's performance has been exaggerated year by year.

The reason for dismissing employees over 35 years old is the changing times and cost-effectiveness issues.

To be realistic, because domestic programmers can be said to be scarce at this stage, major companies are offering unusually high wages in order to retain their own programmers.

Some programmers were even offered manager-level salaries when they were poached.

Therefore, this has led to the fact that domestic programmers generally have very high salaries, and once the salary goes up, it is impossible to lower it.

After a few years, domestic programmer college students began to flood. Compared with young people who are willing to work more overtime, are younger, and have lower wages. As a company boss, who would you choose?

So the fundamental reason for being fired is that there are cheaper alternatives.

Of course, Honor now needs to train younger programmers. Cost-effectiveness is only one aspect. What is more important is the reserve of talent ladder.

At the same time, programmers from Honor or Dongxu Technology are actually facing the problem of being poached.

Compared with the overpopulation of old programmers in some companies, with the popularity of the Internet industry, many new small companies are short of experienced programmers who can lead teams.

If these people stay at Dongxu Technology or Honor Mobile Company, it is basically impossible for the company to increase their salary. Unless they are promoted, the salary is already at the industry ceiling and it is impossible to increase it.

Because if one price goes up, everyone will go up, and this company will definitely not be able to bear it.

Therefore, it is very important to train new people. As long as the old employees are capable and willing to continue doing it, then they can continue doing it.

If you don't want to continue working and are attracted by the high salary outside, then resign yourself. Yang Dongxu will definitely not be embarrassed. After all, one salary of an old employee can support several newcomers doing the same thing.

This not only reduces the burden on the company, but also allows the old employees to find a good home, and both parties are happy.

Of course, these are low- and middle-level programmers. The high-end talent pool provided by Yang Dongxu is top-notch in terms of benefits not only domestically but also internationally.

These are all irreplaceable treasures, and the ones that are updated are just replaceable people.

"Have you talked to the university?"

In China, if you want to recruit professional employees in batches, the talent market is a choice that only the lowest-level companies will make. As long as companies have some connections and channels, they will go straight to colleges and universities.

Young, passionate, driven and cheap college students are the best employees for every company.

The salary for newcomers is low, but as long as the salary is not too excessive, the other party will accept it. You can work after completing the internship period, and the salary can be increased little by little from the beginning.

Every salary increase will stimulate employees' passion for work. By the time the salary increase reaches the ceiling, it will have been several years.

Unlike today's old employees, whose original salary is tens of thousands, if you add a few hundred yuan, it is better not to add anything. If you add a few thousand yuan, the company is not a welfare company.

At the same time, the training potential of new employees is greater, and one or two talents may be discovered.

Old employees have been stereotyped for so many years. If they are trained again, their residual value will be greatly reduced.

"I contacted them, but the gap is still a bit big. The Internet market has been too hot in the past few years, and everyone is competing for people. Many companies have even focused their attention on some core talents to those foreign companies.

Now, if you have a resume of working at Google or Amazon, you can be promoted to a level with similar salary." Lei Jun said helplessly.

Everyone is competing for people, which will undoubtedly make the cost-effectiveness of talents lower and lower. Often the new people recruited by high-tech companies have many personal abilities that are not worthy of their salaries.

But you still need to rob, because if you don’t rob, you won’t even be able to use such unqualified employees.

"I'll find a channel for you. Go to Northern Russia and have a look. The universities in Northern Russia are quite good. Don't think about the United States and Europe. Now the European and American Internet markets are almost crazy.

If he doesn't come here to poach people at this time, it will be difficult for Amitabha. Those who want to poach their people probably have no hope in the next two years.

Well...you can also look at the Indian market. In terms of software, there are also many talents in India."

Yang Dongxu pondered for a moment and said.

Not to mention Northern Russia, despite the economic depression, there are endless streams of mathematical geniuses, including many computer talents.

India is a bit of a latecomer.

When you mention India, don’t think that India is as dirty and chaotic as reported online. At the same time, there are various human rights issues that are unequal to women.

For such a big country, if it was really in such a bad situation, it would have fallen apart long ago. How is it possible that the GDP is gradually increasing?

Not to mention anything else, just talking about software development, many large American technology companies have many Indian or Indian-origin technical talents.
