Rewrite the Technological Landscape

Although the game is still not available on the desktop in this era, Meng Qian must take advantage of this situation to promote it, especially in related forums and games.

It can be said that from September 1st, "The Legend of God" has gained a firm foothold in the game industry.

In the next few days, the number of game players has also maintained an increase of hundreds of thousands of registrations per day.

On September 5, 2000, Meng Qian came to the Shanghai branch of Yinghaiwei again. In just ten days, the company underwent major changes after decoration. At the same time, the company also gained popularity. As well as people recruited from other channels, Yinghaiwei's Shanghai branch now has 65 technicians, plus personnel and administrative positions, the total has reached 77 people.

"It's still easy for a big company to recruit people." Meng Qian sighed.

Meng Qian arrived at the company at 9:30, and the company held a meeting at 10:00. Zhang Shuxin first came to the stage and told everyone about the Shanghai branch's positioning, goals, plans, etc., and then Yu Qian, as the person in charge of the Shanghai branch, gave a speech on how he would lead everyone to achieve their dreams and so on.

After that, Meng Qian took the stage. He was a shareholder and the person in charge of the search engine project. Here, Meng Qian and Zhang Shuxin were connected. He deliberately only mentioned the person in charge of the search engine project instead of the person in charge of the technical department, because Meng Qian could only determine the search engine. He will follow up the project to the end, and he may not be in charge of other projects here in the future.

At the same time, it is also to give other people a hint, telling them that the company does not have a real head of the technical department, and that everyone has the opportunity to be promoted during the progress of the search engine project.

After Meng Qian, there were four team managers recruited by Zhang Shuxin. They were Ju Hongwen from Intel, Zhong Zhengwen from Oracle, Jeff from IBM, and Paul from Google.

The meeting lasted until 12 o'clock, and Zhang Shuxin arranged for everyone to have dinner together.

At two o'clock in the afternoon, Meng Qian began to explain his design to the technical department and arrange work by module. The meeting lasted until four o'clock. After the meeting, Ju Hongwen asked Meng Qian's age intentionally or unintentionally. Deliberately orderly, still looks very young, which is in great contrast to his technical level and technical experience on stage.

However, Meng Qian just smiled and said nothing, because Zhang Shuxin specially asked him not to tell everyone his age. Zhang Shuxin's scruples and Meng Qian are understandable. After all, it is his company, and Meng Qian just does it. Now these people not only don't know At Meng Qian's age, he didn't know that he was the boss of Dafeng Science and Technology Innovation.

After the meeting, Meng Qian got the share agreement, and Zhang Shuxin directly found a third party to help with the subsequent procedures, so there was no need to trouble Meng Qian to make another trip.

On this day, Meng Qian officially acquired 5% of Ying Haiwei's shares.

Later, because Meng Qian's company still had something to do, the three went to the train station together.

Not long after the three of them left, Jeff and Paul made a seemingly natural appointment to go to the toilet together, but the cat entered the stairwell at a corner.

"This young man is very smart." Jeff showed obvious displeasure.

Paul's face was not good-looking, "He holds all the core algorithms in his own hands, he is very clear about what can be released and what cannot be released, not only protecting the core algorithm, but also allowing the following characters to be released as much as possible. In fact, a layman Huaxia company can grasp these details so well, it shouldn't be."

"We have to think of a way. This time we brought so many people to Huaxia, but we can't get nothing. This theory of Meng Qian is indeed no problem. Now no one else realizes that there is another one in China who is better than Robin Li. More genius guys, as long as we can figure out the core algorithm, we can have our own achievements!

Everyone has the ambition of not wanting to work for others, so they decided to come to China to gamble. Finally, we caught this opportunity, and we can't really work for others here. "

"Don't worry, Huaxia is lagging behind in the field of technology after all, and I have learned that Chinese people are very weak in the concept of knowledge protection. We can slowly use some advanced concepts to influence them. A Chinese woman, a Chinese young man People, are you still afraid that you won’t be able to handle it?”

On the other side, Zhang Shuxin noticed that Meng Qian was a little strange shortly after getting in the car, "What's on your mind, Mr. Meng?"

Meng Qian nodded in affirmation, "Jeff and Paul, did you give them shares?"

"No."

"So why did they come to Yinghaiwei?"

Zhang Shuxin stared at Meng Qian for a few seconds, "Because, my salary?"

Meng Qian shook his head, "As far as I know, more and more foreigners have started to go to Huaxia these years, because they may be just ordinary employees in their own country, but with a little packaging, they will directly become directors when they arrive in Huaxia. .”

"You think they're like that too?"

Meng Qian shook his head again, "On the contrary, I checked their bottom line today, and their technical level is not a problem. From my personal opinion, I think they are fully capable of surviving well in IBM and Google.

So, what is their reason for coming to Yinghaiwei? Just for the high salary? How high can you give, ten million a year? Impossible, and if they have no plans to stay in China and settle down, how much money they have earned over the years will be divided by the exchange rate when they return to the United States. Is it really worth leaving IBM and Google?

If my understanding is correct, there are basically three types of foreigners who come to China from the West.

The second is to see the potential of Huaxia and want to come to Huaxia to start a business.

The third type is those who really like Huaxia. They are deeply attracted by China and want to come to China to live or even settle down.

So what is Jeff and Paul doing?

They are not people who can't get along in China, and I don't see a love for China from them. And they brought the team here, what do the team members think?

What made them give up Google and IBM, where all Chinese talents want to go, and Ying Haiwei, who has never really done technology in the Chinese family? Just for that temporary extra salary?

Moreover, they have the ability to pull the team over, which shows that they have leadership skills. I hope Mr. Zhang doesn't mind such talents. I think they come to Ying Haiwei to wrong themselves.

I can't find any logic to support my understanding of why they chose to come to Yinghaiwei.

It's not terrible for others to lie to me, the terrible thing is that I don't know that others are lying to me. "

"What does Mr. Meng think they are for?" Zhang Shuxin became more serious.

"I don't know, I still can't see clearly, but I understand it according to my own logic. No matter what they are doing, I don't think they will sincerely work for Ying Haiwei for a long time. This is what I am more concerned about now. .”

Zhang Shuxin fell silent, and Yu Qian, who was driving, subconsciously glanced at Zhang Shuxin through the rearview mirror, and Zhang Shuxin said after nearly tens of seconds, "The most helpless thing now may be that sometimes our Huaxia companies can only go to these gangs. fraud."

The atmosphere in the car suddenly became much more depressing.

"You asked me to find a team that knows PHP and has project experience. I went around in China, and even if I got the same high salary as a foreigner, I couldn't find it."

The words Zhang Shuxin added a few seconds later made the atmosphere even more depressing.

Regarding the reality of the industry, Meng Qian is naturally very clear that it is not too late for Huaxia to start cultivating talents in the computer field. Many people have misunderstood this. Huaxia's first computer major was established in Harbin Institute of Technology in 1956.

At that time, the state named and trained them, but the cultivation of computer talents in that era was a bit like the state of cultivating artificial intelligence talents in later generations, because they knew that this thing was important, and because the state valued it, resources were all close to high-end talents, just like Tsinghua University in later generations. A "smart class" has been specially set up to recruit academic masters from all over the country, with the purpose of cultivating talents in the field of artificial intelligence.

Fortunately, there are still a lot of training courses and various colleges and universities that are also cultivating basic talents in the field of artificial intelligence, but in the 1950s and 1960s, there were no such things as training courses, and there were no computer majors in second- and third-tier universities, so The Chinese computer talents of that era were either given to the United States for nothing, or handed over to the country.

Many people think that the first generation of Chinese programmers in the true sense started from 1988 to 1989. After all, there were four kings of programmers at that time, especially WPS, which produced 122,000 lines of code by one person. The creator Qiu Bojun, 1989 is also known as the first year of Huaxia Software.

But Huaxia's first generation of programmers has a very obvious feature, basically they all work in state-owned enterprises.

Another historical node after that was Huaxia’s official access to the Internet in 1994, and then the first Internet company in 1995, that is, Ying Haiwei, founded by Zhang Shuxin who was sitting next to Meng Qian.

Under the influence of Ying Haiwei, a large number of Internet companies in China began to explode in 1996.

So just looking at the development of the Internet, it has only been four or five years now, and the development of programmers has only been in the past ten years. Looking at the United States, there was Microsoft in 1975, Apple in 1976, and Oracle in 1977.

So in China in 2000, you said that there was a shortage of programmers, and there was no shortage. There were still many programmers, but there was a shortage of talents, and it was indeed lacking.

Especially in terms of Internet thinking, cutting-edge technology updates, project experience, etc., China's technology development really lacks talents.

The three people sitting in the car fell silent, Meng Qian touched his chin habitually, and suddenly broke the silence a few minutes later, "Mr. Not interested? Even, we can have a cooperation plan."

"Talent reserve?" Zhang Shuxin looked at Meng Qian and beckoned him to explain.

"The issue of talents involves education. We can't change the general environment, but we can do something for the development of our own enterprises.

What I think about is that we, as managers of the enterprise, have to clarify what we want to do in the future. On this basis, we should go to colleges and universities to find talents and start cultivating the relevant talents that our company needs in the future at least half a year in advance.

After these students graduate, they can quickly fill the company's talent gap according to the company's plan.

In this way, students can receive practical training in advance, the company can guarantee its own talent input, and the school can improve the employment situation of students. More importantly, the school is limited by the arrangement of teaching materials, and many cutting-edge things cannot be updated in real time. We are an enterprise In the process of talent reserve, we can let them have access to the latest technology.

For enterprises, this is not a small investment in the short term, but as long as the initial hardships are overcome, the long-term returns must be considerable. "

Zhang Shuxin thought about it seriously for a while, "Who should be the educator of the talent reserve?"

"Let's dig between experienced educators and experienced practical workers. This thing does not happen overnight. We need to knead slowly, and finally knead an excellent education team. Even in the future, we can Start your own corporate school.

I have always believed in a truth that it is better to ask for others than to ask for ourselves. If the environment cannot give us what we want, then we can create it ourselves. What's more, even if the talents we cultivate cannot be used by ourselves, they can be regarded as contributing to society. It's a bit more difficult. Looking back, I think this is at least a win-win situation. "

Zhang Shuxin controlled his emotions very well, "It's a good suggestion, I will think about it carefully."

Meng Qian wasn't sure what Zhang Shuxin meant at the moment, since the other party didn't want to discuss in depth, he didn't say anything.

After chatting for a while, they arrived at the train station. Zhang Shuxin got off the car with Yu Qian and sent Meng Qian to the station entrance.

The two stood outside the entrance, watching Meng Qian gradually disappear into the crowd, Yu Gan said, "This Meng Qian has great ambitions."

Seeing that Meng Qian's figure had completely disappeared, Zhang Shuxin turned around and said, "The scary thing is not that he has ambitions, but the scary thing is that he firmly believes in his own ambitions."
