The reason why the HR of Makino Technology sent Xu Bo a re-examination invitation and took the initiative to bear the air tickets and accommodation expenses was because Li Mu had just held an internal high-level meeting and determined the importance of online games to the overall strategic layout of Makino Technology.
After the meeting, Makino Technology decided to establish a "Game Division". This division was positioned on the same level as all other divisions. The person in charge reported directly to Li Mu. From this point alone, it was enough to see that Li Mu was interested in gaming. The importance attached to online games.
This Game Division is different from YY Game Division, and even has a larger structure than YY Game Division. The Game Division is responsible for the entire online game strategy of Makino Technology in the future. In the future, all online games will be under the responsibility of the Game Division. In the future, it will definitely It is the strategy of the product group, and the YY Game Division is only responsible for the YY Game Platform.
Makino Technology does not have a ready-made online game giant, so Kong Lingyu is temporarily in charge of this business unit, and his capable subordinate Sun Qian also temporarily serves as his deputy to help him set up the game business unit first.
When talking about the game division, Li Mu naturally wanted to recruit Xu Bo. If this person is used well, one person can support a team. In this era and in Li Mu's eyes, he represents the popular online games and Huge game revenue.
However, given Li Mu's current situation, it is not normal to take the initiative to pay attention to the resume of an applicant with little experience or academic qualifications. There is no sufficient theoretical basis for paying attention to such a person, so he deliberately talked about himself. That night I accidentally discovered Xu Bo's resume.
In Li Mu's original words, he admires people like Xu Bo who are foresighted and purposeful. You can invite such a person to come over and have a chat to see his understanding and views on online games.
It was precisely because of Li Mu's mention that Xu Bo received an invitation to re-examine from Makino Technology after accepting the failure.
Li Mu doesn't know much about the online game industry, but he firmly believes that online games are an industry where heroes do not care about their origins or origins, because online games are a new product that has just started in China, and there is no school in China that directly teaches about the Internet. Regarding game knowledge, starting from the domestic stand-alone games in the 1990s, the practitioners in this industry have basically all come from wild backgrounds.
In this era, the online game market, and even the entire Internet market, is not based on one's origin, so talents like Xu Bo have the opportunity to stand out in this era with his understanding of the online game market and user needs.
This is what Li Mu needs.
Let people who really understand technology do R&D, let people who really understand the market do operations, and let people who really understand users make products. This is the fundamental principle for the Internet industry to make the best use of people.
Li Mu doesn’t know if Xu Bo now has the ability to run a new game, but he firmly believes that as long as this person is given a chance, proper guidance and sufficient support, he will be able to make it even if he leaves NetEase. A game with high revenue and long life like "Fantasy Westward Journey".
wrong!
The copyright of Journey to the West is not protected and anyone can use it. Why develop a game like Fantasy Westward Journey? Wouldn't it be more appropriate to directly develop a "Fantasy Westward Journey" owned by Makino Technology
With this idea, Li Mu is even more looking forward to Xu Bo's joining.
Of course, in addition to Xu Bo, there is also Xishanju in Jinshan.
In addition to Xu Bo's matter, Li Mu also assigned Lin Qingya a task at the meeting: to kill the entire core members of Xishanju in a short time at all costs!
At present, Xishanju has not made any truly impressive achievements, and the remuneration for core members will not be too high. In this regard, Li Mu believes that Makino Technology can attract the other party by offering higher salaries and high signing fees as conditions. Job hopping.
If the annual salary can reach 200,000, then Makino Technology will give 400,000, and then give another 200,000 in cash as a signing fee. When the time comes, the labor contract will be placed in front of the other party. As long as the person signs the contract, the cash of 200,000 will be deposited into the account immediately, and the other Not to mention, 200,000 yuan in cash can be used as a down payment to buy a 100-square-meter two-bedroom apartment within the Third Ring Road. The average price within the Third Ring Road is currently less than 10,000 yuan.
In addition to speaking with money, Makino Technology can also speak with facts and the future. Makino Technology's current corporate influence, popularity and development space far exceed that of Kingsoft. I believe the team members of Xishanju are well aware of this.
…
After finishing the meeting on the preparation of the game division, Li Mu returned to his office and called Zhao Kang, asking him to prepare to return to Yanjing in the next two days.
It is estimated that Shenzhou's military force will stay in Yanjing for at least two or three days. The policy of "computers entering the city" is a national policy. The Economic and Trade Commission will definitely be extremely cautious about this, allowing Zhao Kang to return to Yanjing in two days to transfer the chain. Tell him about the Internet cafe and ask him to meet with Wu Haijun first to establish contact. It is best to follow Wu Haijun to Shenzhou to have a look, and then he can start preparations.
Just as Li Mu finished talking to Zhao Kang, his secretary at Makino Technology knocked on the door and came in, saying to Li Mu: "Mr. Li, the newly hired Director Chen wants to see you."
Li Mu frowned: "Is it Chen Tong?"
The secretary nodded: "Yes."
Li Mu thought for a moment and then said to her: "Okay, let him come in."
"Okay Mr. Li."
The secretary turned around and went out. After a while, he opened the door again, brought Chen Tong in, and said to Li Mu, "Mr. Li, Director Chen is here."
Li Mu nodded slightly at her. After she went out, he looked at the embarrassed Chen Tong with interest and asked him: "Brother Chen, how have you been at Makino Technology these two days?"
Chen Tong laughed awkwardly and said: "It feels like everyone is very busy except me. I have been free every day these days and just surf the Internet in the office..."
Chen Tong has been working for several days, but no one has arranged a job for him. He just holds the title of content director and has been sitting in his independent small office doing nothing for several days. He also felt this at first. It might be Li Mu's deliberate arrangement, but I don't know what Li Mu's intention was.
Over the past few days, Chen Tong felt increasingly unsure. He even wondered if Li Mu had simply forgotten about him because he was too busy with work.
He joined Makino Technology because of Liu Edong's help and Li Mu's direct nod, so he came directly to join the job. Apart from Li Mu, he didn't know who his direct leader was. In the past few days, he saw that the scale of Makino Technology was extremely large. And he was still recruiting new people, so he was a little worried. If Li Mu forgot about him and didn't assign a direct leader to him, wouldn't he just become a bench player as soon as he joined Makino Technology
When Chen Tong joined Makino Technology, he never expected to get a good position in Makino Technology. However, he himself was not a person who was used to dawdling, so the more he thought about it, the more he worried that he would be marginalized for a long time, so he kept thinking about it in his heart. I was thinking about finding an opportunity to interview Li Mu.
But Li Mu has been busy with Taobao and Wanying recently. It is not easy to come to Makino Technology. Chen Tong waited for several days and did not wait. The last time Li Mu came to see Wu Haijun, it was already late at night and Chen Tong could not catch up. , this time Li Mu came for a meeting. After Chen Tong heard about it, he waited for Li Mu to finish the meeting, so he came over as soon as the meeting ended.
Li Mu heard his tone complaining about leisure, so he smiled slightly and invited him to sit on the sofa in the reception area. Then he smiled and said to him: "I'm really sorry, Brother Chen. I've been too busy with work recently and I didn't have time to communicate with you." .”
Chen Tong waved his hand hurriedly: "Mr. Li's words are serious. In fact, I just want to know how the company considers my work arrangements. I personally also hope to be able to get into actual work as soon as possible."
Li Mu did not answer his question, but asked him: "Brother Chen, which department of Makino Technology do you think you are more suitable for?"
Chen Tong hesitated for a moment and then said: "To be honest, I think I am more suitable for the portal network, because I have a background in the portal network, and I am the most experienced in the portal network and the easiest to get started with."
Li Mu nodded lightly, looked at Chen Tong and said: "I thought so too a few months ago, but the planning and development under YY Network are very good, so I think there is no need to arrange you to the portal again. It’s inside.”
Chen Tong's face was a little uneasy, and his whole face felt hot. When Li Mu wanted to poach him, he was still loyal to Sina, and even tried to lead Sina to resist Li Mu's competition. Unexpectedly, Li Mu just The YY product group blocked the "Sina" keyword and Sina's website address, causing Sina's stock price to plummet one after another.
Thinking of the terrifying hooligan logic Li Mu used when blocking the "Sina" keyword, Chen Tong felt uncomfortable all over. Li Mu's actions were indeed too ruthless and frustrating. Chen Tong, who was on his side, was preparing to fight him to the death. His own food and grass were burned to the ground, and he and Sina were beaten to death without even using a single soldier.
However, when he thought about his overestimation at that time, and his resoluteness when he rejected Li Mu and Makino Technology, Chen Tong felt even more ashamed. He was in his thirties, but he wanted to show off in front of Li Mu. Get in through a crack in the ground.
Li Mu saw the shame on Chen Tong's face, and thought that there should be a limit to ridicule, so he coughed, turned over the article just now, looked at Chen Tong and said seriously: "Senior Brother Chen, in my opinion, Your ability does not necessarily have to be reflected on the portal. What you are best at is creating content, making high-quality content that users like, and presenting it to users in an advanced way. This ability is applicable to any field on the Internet."
Chen Tong said awkwardly: "Today's Internet believes in traffic. Apart from portals, I don't know what other fields require content workers."
Li Mu smiled and said: "Makino Technology's Tieba is a platform composed entirely of content. Not only does it have a large amount of content created by ordinary netizens, but there is also a lot of content created by celebrities, including many high-quality content."
Chen Tong asked Li Mu: "What is your definition of quality content?"
Li Mu said: "The content that can attract a large number of users' attention is high-quality content. It is not only content released by celebrities, but also high-quality content created by many netizens themselves. For example, in the 'Installation' post bar, a netizen wrote an article about Installation The strategy has been read more than five million times in two months, and this is only the number of reads in Tieba, excluding those websites that directly copy and paste the content and then publish it."
Chen Tong asked in surprise: "How can a post posted by an ordinary user have such a high number of views?"
Li Mu nodded: "Because the content is well written, the content of his post is very practical for netizens who need to install it or are interested in this aspect. Many people have saved it for easy reference next time. There are even many people who follow this netizen, and once he posts anything on Tieba, those who follow him will receive a special prompt."
When Chen Tong heard this, he suddenly became interested and said excitedly: "Ordinary users can create such a big influence and attract so many users' attention. If we pay close attention to this area, there should be a lot of potential."
Li Mu nodded in agreement. Chen Tong was indeed keen enough to hear the key points from just one example.
At present, if Tieba wants to further develop high-quality content and user influence, there are two directions: turning left to develop into a blog, and turning right to develop into Zhihu. However, Zhihu, a product that pursues style and coquettishness, cannot be used now. Too early, blogs are the product most suitable for the current era.
