Reborn? The Kind You Can Choose!

At night, Xu Bo looked around, straightened his collar, and walked towards a nearby coffee shop.

"Yuanshi, here!"

A voice sounded from the corner of the coffee shop.

Xu Bo waved his hand, and then walked towards the owner of the voice.

At NetEase, employees call each other by their nicknames. For example, Xu Bo’s nickname at NetEase is [Yuanshi Laozu], which is of course the Sanqing in Journey to the West.

Many Internet companies, in pursuit of so-called equality, deliberately ignore the concept of "general".

As Zhang Yiming later said: "We are facing an era of great changes. The external environment is a constantly changing environment, and companies need to respond to the external environment in a timely manner. An equal atmosphere of free speech is very important. Honorifics are formal things. It There will be psychological implications.”

Therefore, in order to avoid the sense of formality bringing a suppressive aura to the company's grassroots nodes, Toutiao chose to weaken the hierarchy: first of all, it is not allowed to call "boss", "general so-and-so", "teacher", etc. Once such titles are released, , many ideas cannot emerge.

They may tend to listen to what the "teacher" has to say first, rather than speaking out themselves.

In traditional companies, and even some Internet companies, there is a situation where superiors suppress subordinates. In other words, it is common for them to use authority and position to persuade subordinates. Therefore, these companies all began to decline.

In fact, not only Toutiao and Bytedance, but also Internet companies such as Alibaba, Penguin, Lenovo and Baidu, have weakened this upward relationship.

They will be replaced by flower names or English names or names.

For example, Alibaba uses the names of martial arts and ancient figures as the nickname of its company. Ma Yun internally calls it Feng Qingyang, while the future number one, Zhang Yong, is Xiaoyaozi.

Penguin internally refers to senior executives by simple English names, such as Ma Huateng as Pony, Platform and Content Business Group President Ren Xinxin Mark, Cloud and Intelligence Industry Business Group Tang Daosheng Dowson.

The chairman and CEO of Lenovo Group also asked Lenovo to cancel the title of "General" and refer to it by a person's name, and asked employees to call themselves "Yuanqing"!

"The higher ups actually sent you here?"

Xu Bo sat down in front of Yang Shuo and looked at his former direct boss.

Yang Shuo, the apparent chief planner of "Fantasy Westward Journey" and the deputy director of NetEase's game department!

"If you don't send me here, do you want Mr. Li and Mr. Ding to come over?"

Yang Shuo pushed the coffee and steak he had already ordered in front of Xu Bo: "Thank you for your hard work. I know you have been working overtime until now, so you probably haven't even eaten dinner!"

"You still have some conscience!"

Xu Bo was not polite and wolfed down the food. He was really hungry. He spent a whole day fighting for parking spaces and upgraded the car models. There were originally 20 models, but now they have been directly upgraded to all the models on the market. All car brands, and support modification.

Just this small change almost exhausted him to death.

Yuan Zhou only said one sentence.

"It seems that you are really having a miserable life in this company!"

Yang Shuo couldn't help but shook his head when he saw Xu Bo's starving ghost reincarnation.

"Stop talking, you don't know, this company is not for people. I go to work at 9:30 in the morning and get off at 9:30 in the evening. It takes 12 hours, and there is no overtime pay!"

Speaking of this, Xu Bo was full of complaints, and Yang Shuo next to him looked a little amused.

"Hey, I'm really worried about the future of this company..."

Yang Shuo sighed.

Xu Bo finally finished the steak, French bread, borscht, etc. in front of him, and burped with great satisfaction: "Uh, cool!"

“After leaving Guangdong Province, this is the first time I’ve had such a full meal!”

Xu Bo said pitifully, and Yang Shuo leaned closer and said, "Would you like to order another one for you?"

"Forget it, business matters!"

"Tell me, what do you want to know?"

Of course Xu Bo knew the reason why Yang Shuo came, but he still asked subconsciously.

"You're asking questions knowingly!"

Yang Shuo raised his eyebrows: "Have you heard about the next update of the school network 2.0?"

"Tell me first, how far have we gone?"

Xu Bo asked back, and Yang Shuo didn't hide anything. He said directly: "It was almost completed. Who would have thought that after Gouri's 2.0 update, the interface would be so good!"

"Lao Ding directly ordered the development department to redo it, and also asked our game department to participate in the development of 'grabbing parking spaces'. He also had to come up with several ideas that could surpass the school network to snatch parking spaces. Isn't this so difficult for us?"

Yang Shuo was complaining there, but Xu Bo hummed thoughtfully: "Yes, to be honest, I saw the interface of the school network 2.0 and almost despaired. The UI and rendering are so well done! "

"You have to admire Yuan Zhou. He is definitely a genius in terms of development!"

…Please give me flowers…

After Xu Bo finished speaking, Yang Shuo shrugged: "So, isn't this embarrassing us?"

"However, it's almost the same. The main new recruits are product designers from Japanese companies. They are all industry giants. They used to design products for Sony, and U[ is their strength!"

"Mr. Ding obviously spent a lot of money this time!"

Yang Shuo smiled and then raised his head: "Hurry up, I have to rush back to the company early tomorrow morning to return to work!"

"What's the rush? It's so hard to come here and have a good chat?"

Although Xu Bo said this, he still took out a piece of paper from his pocket and handed it to Yang Shuo: "I will write down the next few updates to the school network on it!"

"You let Mr. Ding and the Development Department use it at their discretion!"

....00

"Celebrity coming in?"

Yang Shuo quickly unfolded the paper and saw these four words as the first item. After reacting, his eyes suddenly brightened.

"good idea!"

"Let some famous domestic celebrities go to social networking sites, and fans and netizens will definitely pay attention!"

“Not only does it drive traffic, it also keeps the website sticky!”

Yang Shuo was quite satisfied with the first updated content.

After reading the second, third and fourth points, the expression on Yang Shuo's face became brighter and brighter: "Not bad, not bad, the update you provided this time is very powerful, if these functions are added!"

“Our campus network is definitely interesting!”

"Campus Network?"

Xu Bo was shocked by this name.

This fake copycat is too real. Yuan Zhou calls it the school network, and Ding Sanshi calls it the campus network. With just one word difference, many people will definitely get it wrong.

"Yes, campus network, confirmed!"

“The online registration number has been issued!”

"Okay, I won't bother you anymore, I have to go back to the hotel to report!"

Yang Shuo straightened up and was about to leave.

Xu Bo rolled his eyes at him angrily: "Gungungun, I know you are very realistic!"

"Hahaha, I'm really anxious!"

"When you return to your post, I will personally take care of you and set up a few tables. Now...brother is gone!"

Yang Shuo chuckled, stuffed the paper into his pocket, and walked directly out of the coffee shop without stopping at all.

Seeing the back of his former boss getting farther and farther away, Xu Bo, who was originally smiling, couldn't help but tighten his expression, and said to a table not far away: "Mr. Yuan, what I just said is okay, right?" ".
