Explosive increase in employees

“Boss, we have hired more than 100 people through headhunting companies during this period. Among them, there are at most more than 50 people in operations and planning, followed by more than 40 developers, and there are more than 40 other people in total. , and there is also a team of more than 20 people talking, so it’s not a big problem.”

Listening to Yang Qianer’s report, Lin Hao was shocked. He didn’t expect that in just one week, he had already hired more than 100 people.

“So many?” Lin Hao asked in surprise.

“Those headhunting companies went crazy when they heard the conditions you offered. Every well-known Internet company in the country has become their target. The employees who received the call from the headhunters were all eye-catching when they heard that their salary would be doubled. Many people agreed on the spot.”

Yang Qian’er herself did not expect that this matter would go so smoothly. In just one week, she had already recruited more than 100 people.

“Those headhunting companies didn’t commit fraud to defraud commissions, did they?” Lin Hao asked worriedly.

“You can rest assured about this. We will reschedule interviews for the people they recommended. Only those who pass the interview will be hired.”

After hearing Yang Qian’er’s words, Lin Hao opened the file she handed over and looked at it. He originally thought that he would recruit the most people. The company would be Shanda NetEase, but unexpectedly it would be Jinshan-Xishanju.

Lin Hao was a little surprised to see that Jinshan was the one who had been poached the most. At the same time, he also thought of one person, Rebus.

At this time, Rebus should be the general manager of Kingsoft. In early 1992, Rebus joined Kingsoft. He has successively served as the manager of the Beijing Development Department of Kingsoft Company, the deputy general manager of Zhuhai Company, and the general manager of Beijing Kingsoft Software Company.

In August 1998, he served as the general manager of Kingsoft Corporation. At the end of 2000, after the joint-stock restructuring of Kingsoft Corporation, he served as the president of Beijing Kingsoft Software Co., Ltd.

Rebus entered Kingsoft at the age of 22 and worked until he was 38. He worked at Kingsoft for a full 16 years, during which time he completed Kingsoft’s IPO.

On December 20, 2007, Rebus resigned as CEO of Kingsoft and founded Xiaomi in 2010.

“Why are there so many people in Jinshan?” Lin Hao raised his head and asked Yang Qian’er.

“The current situation in Jinshan is not very good. It is a bit unable to make ends meet, and wages can hardly be paid. As soon as the headhunting company contacted me, many people came over. The team of more than 20 people is from Xishanju.”

Yang Qian’er’s words made Lin Hao a little shocked. , is there such a thing? Xishanju can be said to be the earliest team to make games in China. It has successively released “Swordsman Love” and “Swordsman Love II”, especially the latter’s sales of 200,000 units, which set a sales miracle for domestic games that year.

It’s just that after a period of time, it became lonely. Fewer and fewer people played stand-alone games. After online games became popular, they became less and less popular.

Although it has declined, the other party’s game research and development capabilities are still very strong. They will soon adjust and start research and development in the direction of online games, and they will still exist until 2023.

Kingsoft used to make a living relying on Kingsoft Antivirus, but as the release of WPS, which invested huge sums of money in research and development, was sluggish, the market was sluggish, and life is not easy now. Naturally, Xishanju Studio can no longer be taken care of.

Lin Hao touched his chin when he thought of this.

After thinking about it, I decided to forget it. Xishanju was in Zhuhai, which was too far away from the capital, so the acquisition would not be of much use. However, Rebus, Lin Hao, was very interested.

“How many people are there in the company now?” Lin Hao asked Yang Qian’er.

“We recruited ourselves, plus the people we poached, we now have more than 200 people.” Speaking of this, Yang Qian’er was full of pride. It has only been two weeks since the company opened, and the number of people has exceeded 200. .

In 2002, a company with more than a hundred employees could already be considered a large company. An ordinary company would be considered good if it had dozens of employees, but of course factories were not counted.

There are even fewer Internet companies with more than 100 employees. Take the four most popular portal websites as an example, Sina, NetEase, Sohu, and Tencent. They have about the same number of people, but these companies have been developing for many years.

Lin Hao was not surprised when he heard this number. Although it looked like a lot, Lin Hao still felt that there were a few people when he thought about what he had to do later.

“The recruitment will continue, but the recruitment can be slowed down, unless there are particularly powerful people or teams.”

“Okay, boss.” Yang Qian’er agreed readily. She herself felt that too many people had been recruited recently. Well, the people recruited by the company themselves are okay. Many of the people who were poached were from the same company before, especially the entire team came together and now work together. It is easy to form a small hill. In a short period of time, you can still see It won’t come out, but it’s hard to tell after a long time.

Yang Qian’er went out to work, and Lin Hao had no intention of continuing to tease Shen Yuxuan. He took her out of the office and went to the outside office area.

The office space Lin Hao rented was an entire floor with an area of more than 3,000 square meters. Although there were already more than 200 employees, the office area still looked a bit empty.

I took Shen Yuxuan to visit various departments of the company. The game department has the largest number of people, with more than 100 people, most of whom are developers.

Seeing Lin Hao coming, Li Xueling took the initiative to introduce Lin Hao.

“Boss, there are now 123 people in our department, including 78 developers, 45 people in planning, operations, design, etc., 50 of the 78 developers are engaged in secondary development of Miracle MU, and 18 are developing games. Forum, there are still 10 people working on the Internet cafe management software you just mentioned.”

“The publicity work is also being done, and I will let you review the publicity plan after it is completed.”

Li Xueling told Lin Hao in detail the current situation of the game department Division of labor and the work at hand.

“Be bold in your publicity plan. When the game is released, let the entire Internet know about it. Anyone who is online must know about our game. We must make it an instant hit.”

Li Xueling heard Lin Hao’s words , his eyes lit up. Although Lin Hao talked about Internet cafe management software before, he still didn’t know how to promote this thing. Now with Lin Hao’s words, he felt relieved. One word meant spending money. He was worried about this matter. Okay, when the time comes, he will buy all the ads on major Internet platforms and find some people to lead the way in major game forums. He believes that with the quality of “Miracle MU”, it will definitely become popular.

“Boss, don’t worry, I will definitely handle this matter of spending money clearly for you.” As soon as Li Xueling finished speaking, everyone laughed.

…..

In the evening, Lin Hao received calls from Lin Fugui and Zheng Wanrong.

“You brat, you’ve already returned to China. Where did you go if you didn’t go home?” Lin Fugui’s roar came from the phone.
