Rebirth began in 2004

While Yang Mengxiao was busy building a clothing company, WeChat also updated a new function.

Moments!

WeChat, an instant messaging software that is completely suitable for the mobile Internet era, is rapidly conquering the market.

Although WeChat has updated stranger dating content such as nearby people, it also has functions such as shake and drift bottle.

But this has never been the core function of WeChat.

Socializing with acquaintances or socializing with friends is the core function of WeChat.

Many people add friends on WeChat who they have met in person at least once.

Beijing, Xiaoju Technology.

Xiaoju Technology is the parent company of WeChat.

The number of employees in Xiaoju Company has exceeded 300, of which 250 are technical R&D personnel.

WeChat has been running very well since it went online, thanks to these people.

Chen Wei is also a user, so he naturally understands the psychology of users.

As an application software facing ordinary users, the stability of the software is the most important thing.

"Mr. Wei, after the Moments function was launched, within an hour, 100,000 users had posted Moments."

With Chen Wei's presence, the circle of friends has already reached extreme maturity from the very beginning.

At least things like posting to Moments can be easily done on a smartphone.

It's very easy to operate.

Of course, if you post to Moments now, you can only post pictures with text, but not videos.

Posting videos to Moments is something that will be updated later.

In addition, many functions on WeChat have not been developed yet.

For example, functions such as WeChat public accounts are currently under development, but have not yet been launched.

Chen Wei nodded gently: "In the future, people will definitely post more and more Moments. Server resources must be guaranteed."

Speaking of server resources, Chen Wei couldn't help but think of cloud computing, which will be very popular in the future!

Cloud computing is a standard feature of large Internet companies. Without it, it cannot be called strong.

"How's that distributed server research going?"

"The technical difficulty is a bit high, and there is no specific reference, so the progress is very slow."

Chen Wei nodded gently, "This matter is something that can't be rushed."

But this technology is very important, and many future applications will be based on this technology.

If not, even if many things can be realized, it will not be so convenient.

"We need to strengthen research and development in this area."

Feinan hesitated for a moment: "Mr. Wei, this research is developed by us. It is too difficult. I even think it has exceeded our technical strength."

"If there is no suitable leader, relying on current R&D personnel, it may take longer to successfully develop."

Chen Wei raised his eyebrows: "Are you worried that I don't have the patience to wait?"

Feinan nodded gently. As a person who switched from technology to management, Feinan had encountered too many projects that were abandoned due to lack of patience.

Many projects have good prospects.

Chen Wei attaches great importance to research and development. Now Xiaoju Technology has never made a profit, but it spends a lot of money.

Let’s just say that building server centers across the country is a huge amount of money.

The purpose is just to provide users with a better user experience.

To make a product, you must give users a good experience, which Feinan also supports.

But the problem now is that WeChat is not profitable.

How long can Chen Wei continue to invest?

Looking at Feinan's expression, Chen Wei already knew: "This technology is a technology that must be mastered. No matter how impatient I am, there is no other way."

Patting Fei Nan, Chen Wei smiled and said: "Don't worry, I will take care of the funds."

After leaving Xiaoju Technology, Chen Wei got into the car and couldn't help but rub his forehead.

This is really troublesome!

Want to study some black technology, why is it so difficult?

Chen Wei did not go back to school or home, but went to another place.

Hengtong Electronics!

Hengtong Electronics has bought a large piece of land in Beijing to build a R&D center.

It is very different from the R&D companies of other companies. The R&D center that Hengtong Electronics plans to build should be said to be a base!

Because in this "base", there are not only laboratories, but also dormitories, canteens, sports fields, supermarkets, cinemas, hospitals, schools, etc.

The school will have kindergarten, elementary school, junior high school and high school.

Of course, the school will charge fees.

Hengtong Electronics funded the construction of the school, and the operation of the school is maintained by the tuition fees collected.

Including the maintenance and purchase of school teaching equipment, as well as teachers’ salaries.

The school really doesn’t necessarily lose money.

After all, sending children to school has been a costly affair since ancient times.

Schools can not only recruit children of internal employees, but can also recruit students from society.

As long as the school has its own characteristics, you don’t have to worry about no one coming to study.

There are no reports in the news. There are people who go to private schools that only teach ancient Chinese classics. What's more, Chen Wei, a student who is preparing for the all-round development of moral, intellectual, physical, artistic and physical skills, is not afraid that parents will not be interested.

Of course, students will eventually have to pass the college entrance examination.

But no matter how important the college entrance examination is, there is no need to start preparing for it from elementary school. At most, the senior year of high school is enough.

The strings cannot be too tight, otherwise the child will be tired of studying before he reaches the third year of high school.

In junior high school, some children had very good grades and worked very hard.

But after reaching high school, these children's grades plummeted, they stopped working hard and just wanted to play!

In fact, this is a very normal psychology.

It's like, we work for several months and just want to take a long vacation to rest.

Adults have this mentality, and so do children.

Anyway, this research and development base will meet people's basic needs of food, clothing, housing, transportation, education, and medical care.

Just one person is missing for retirement.

It doesn't matter, the employees are still young now. In a few years, a nursing home can be opened for them, and they can live in a place with beautiful scenery for a few months.

Wait, now the employees can’t use it themselves, but their parents can use it, right?

Nowadays, many families only have one child. If the child goes out to work, no one will take care of the old man.

Think about your employees!

It is also good to allow employees to focus entirely on contributing to the company.

If I do this, how will the cost be calculated?

In fact, there is no need to worry at all. You must collect the money you should collect. You don’t have to make money, but you don’t need to lose money.

After all, this is done to retain and attract talents.

According to Chen Wei's plan, the entire R&D base will have tens of thousands of R&D personnel.

In addition to building such R&D bases in Beijing, they will also be built in Rongcheng, Jinling and Jiangcheng.

The marketing department is located in cities such as Beijing, Shanghai, Shenchuan and Yangcheng. The R&D department does not need to be located in such cities. Instead, it can be located in cities where universities gather.

The three cities of Rongcheng, Jinling and Jiangcheng are all second-tier cities, and the land costs for building R&D bases are much lower.
