Chapter 306 Don’t let Baidu have a good year!
The twenty-eighth day of the twelfth lunar month, the day before New Year’s Eve.
Xingyi Technology is happily holding its annual meeting to discuss merit and reward.
However, Kawaii Qiyi was overwhelmed and was forced to appear in court as a defendant.
A large number of reporters gathered at the scene, making the iQiyi people look pale:
"It's so abominable that the court was held on the day before New Year's Eve. Is this intentional by Xingyi Technology?"
"I'm on annual leave tomorrow, but the court is in session today. It must be intentional!"
"The facts of this case are clear. We have indeed infringed the copyright of Xingyi Video and we will definitely lose the case."
“It’s the Chinese New Year, and if iQiyi loses the lawsuit, Xingyi Technology doesn’t want us to have a good Chinese New Year!”
"I heard that Xingyi Technology is holding an annual meeting and giving out year-end bonuses!"
"What? They held the annual meeting to issue year-end bonuses, and we were sued?"
"Made, my mentality is broken. If I had known this, I might as well have joined Xingyi Media."
"Shhh, be quiet. I've thought about some things in my mind. Don't say it out loud. Be careful that the boss hears it. Keep your little shoes on!"
"I'm afraid of the ball. It's not like I don't know that the leaders are looking for connections and want to change jobs to Xingyi Media!"
"Holy shit, is it true or not? The leader is going to run away?"
"Xingyi Media has higher wages and better development than us at iQiyi. Are you telling the truth?"
"No, I also want to do some exercise."
"Let's go together, iQiyi is over, Xingyi Media is still reliable!"
For a moment, iQiyi looked complicated.
Some people are very angry because they were prosecuted for celebrating the Chinese New Year.
There are also some people who directly start thinking about changing jobs.
If you can't beat them, join in. Those who know the current affairs are heroes!
Not shabby.
Intercontinental Hotel.
Wang Yi looked at the representative of Xiaoi Robot Company: "But AI is a big project. Our rival Siri is making rapid progress, and Xiao Ai must also develop rapidly."
"If you are far ahead of Siri, you can definitely get an S for your 2012 year-end bonus. But if you are overtaken by Siri, then you don't want the year-end bonus."
"The same is true for other business departments! Xingyi Technology's salary is already among the top in the industry and there will not be a big increase in the future. However, the year-end bonus will continue to increase. This year's S-level is capped at six months, and next year's S-level will be capped at eight months.
Even a ten-month cap!”
"It is normal for departments and employees with outstanding performance to receive 20 months' salary a year!"
"Wow!"
Thunderous applause resounded throughout the hall, and everyone was extremely excited.
At present, Xingyi Technology's salary is already among the top in the industry, and it is incredible to have such a generous year-end bonus.
You must know that other companies only issue year-end bonuses for 0-6 months a year.
For more companies, it would be good if they could pay one more month's salary.
I can only say that Mr. Wang is generous enough.
Anyone who has changed jobs has no regrets and has made a lot of money.
"Next, Xingyi Media's big entertainment business!" Wang Yi continued:
"Xingyi Video is developing rapidly, and several hit dramas are currently blowing up. The number of paying members of Xingyi Video has exceeded 15 million, plus more than 8 million members gifted by xphone 1, the total number of members has exceeded 23 million. Comprehensive evaluation A
Level, all employees will receive a year-end bonus of 2 to 5 months based on individual performance evaluation."
"Xingyi Music is developing well. The membership growth rate is not as good as that of Xingyi Video, but the number of paid members has also exceeded 7 million. Including free members, the total number of members has exceeded 15 million. The comprehensive evaluation is B level, and all employees are evaluated based on their personal performance and get 1
Year-end bonus to 4 months.”
"In addition, Ye Changpeng, who oversees Xingyi Media, has made outstanding contributions and received an A-level comprehensive evaluation, and received a 5-month year-end bonus."
"Gu Qing, is responsible for artist management and copyright transactions. He not only signed many high-quality artists, but also won a large number of high-quality IP copyrights from the Qidian Chinese website at a very cost-effective price before the year. He received a comprehensive assessment of A level and won 5 months of year-end awards.
prize."
"I hope the two of you will keep up the good work!"
"Thank you, Chairman."
"We must."
The two of them responded one after another.
At present, the comprehensive performance evaluation of most departments is A level or B level.
The only companies that can get S-level are the clothing and mobile phone departments of Meiyou, which are cash cows whose business is booming and whose annual revenue exceeds 10 billion.
Wang Yi continued: "The large entertainment business is very important, especially Xingyi Video and Xingyi Music. If we do a good job, we hope to become an S-class department with annual revenue exceeding 10 billion! Come on!"
"yes!"
"We must!"
Wang Yi nodded and continued: "In the animation department, Ruo Sen performed well. One "Xia Lan" directly made him a god. With exquisite modeling and brilliant special effects, he became the number one Chinese comic and brought hundreds of millions to Xingyi Video.
Thousands of new members have been added and a lot of advertising revenue has been generated, which is gratifying."
"If the comprehensive performance evaluation of the Sen department is A-level, all employees will receive a year-end bonus of 2-5 months based on individual performance evaluation."
"Thank you, Chairman!" Director Ruo Sen beamed with joy.
Wang Yi continued: "The reason why I didn't give you an S-level rating is because in my opinion, you still have more room for improvement. It is true that "Xia Lan" is very successful, very successful, but this is not your full strength.
You can definitely create a work that will crush "Qin Shi Mingyue" in all aspects!"
Wang Yi knows that the plot and setting of "Xia Lan" are not as good as "Qin Shi Mingyue".
The reason why Qin Shi Mingyue is currently being crushed is that the previous seasons of "Qin Shi Mingyue" lacked funds and the picture quality was rough.
After Wang Yi invested in "Xia Lan", everything was torn down and reset. Its modeling and picture quality surpassed Qin Shimingyue's, and it won the first place in Chinese comics.
"Yes, Chairman, let's keep up the good work." Everyone in Ruo Sen responded.
They won't get carried away.
"The AutoNavi department has performed well and received a comprehensive evaluation of B grade. All employees will receive year-end bonuses of 1-4 months based on individual performance evaluations."
…
"The Sogou department has performed well and received a comprehensive evaluation of B grade. All employees will receive year-end bonuses of 1-4 months based on individual performance evaluations."
"Ele.me department..." Wang Yi sighed: "In the Southern Region, Shawn Yue took a small part of the original Gaode staff to develop two first-tier cities. The performance was good and the comprehensive assessment was B-level. All employees were evaluated based on their individual performance.
Year-end bonus of 1 to 4 months.”
"In the Northern Region, Zhang Hao, with many employees from Ele.me, only opened up two second-tier cities. His performance was poor, the overall evaluation was E-level, and there was no year-end bonus."
"President Zhang Hao, overall rating is E, no year-end bonus. Warning. If there is poor performance for the second time, you will be demoted and your salary will be reduced!"
Hearing this, the entire hall was in an uproar.
No one expected that a department in Ele.me would be divided into two regions, north and south, to be assessed separately.
It is even more unimaginable that some people in a department will receive year-end bonuses of one to four months.
Others don't get a single year-end bonus and can only watch.
Wang Yi continued: "In the future, all business departments will be evaluated in this way. They will be divided into regions. Those with outstanding performance will receive high year-end bonuses, and those with the lowest performance will receive low or zero year-end bonuses. The person in charge will give a warning once, and will be demoted twice.
I had my job cut and my salary reduced, and I left three times!"
For a time, the expressions of many high-level officials changed drastically, and they completely recognized Wang Yi's style.
Looking at Zhang Hao, his expression was even more complicated.
Wang Yi didn't say harsh words today, but he took Ele.me for surgery!
Properly set an example and kill the chicken to scare the monkeys!
Zhang Hao broke out in a cold sweat, knowing in his heart that if his performance failed to improve, it would be natural for him to step down and be laid off.
Wang Yi then awarded awards to some advanced employees and teams.
"Finally, there are a few special prizes!"
"Wei Ming, director of Meiyou Qiuyun Garment Factory, has been working hard and diligently since the factory in Meiyou County. He received an A-level comprehensive performance evaluation and a 6-month year-end bonus."
When Wei Ming walked on stage, he was very surprised. He didn't expect that he would also win the grand prize.
Wang Yi patted Wei Ming on the shoulder: "Work hard and keep up the good work. The new factory depends on you."
"Don't worry, Chairman, I will do my best."
Wang Yi nodded and continued:
"Jian Ziyan, assistant to the chairman of Xingyi Technology, helps me manage large and small affairs. She has made outstanding contributions. She received an A-level comprehensive performance evaluation and a 6-month year-end bonus."
"Hey, I have one too!" Jian Ziyan beamed: "Thank you, Chairman."
In name, she is only the assistant to the chairman and secretary, but in fact she has overall power.
Wang Yi had no time to deal with Xingyi Technology matters and left them all to Jian Ziyan.
It can be said that Jian Ziyan does not have the status of a president, but she has the power of a president.
Of course, the pay is also very high.
The monthly salary + performance is already 30,000 yuan, and now with the six-month year-end bonus, the annual salary is more than 500,000 yuan.
As for her position, Wang Yi won't give her a promotion, so she can just be the secretary to the board of directors.
Whatever happens, report directly to Wang Yi and be responsible for executing Wang Yi's orders.
Wang Yi nodded and changed the subject:
"Finally, Song Sining, Vice President of Xingyi Technology and President of Meiyou Technology!"
The spotlight turned on and fell on Song Sining.
"When I was in the imperial capital, President Song personally handled all affairs of Jeju Meiyou Technology. President Song also hosted many press conferences and made outstanding contributions. It was President Song who accompanied me to build Meiyou and Xingyi Technology.
Thank you President Song for making something happen out of nothing! S-level comprehensive performance evaluation, 8-month year-end bonus, and imperial household registration!"
"Wow!"
Thunderous applause rang out, and Song Sining smiled sweetly: "Thank you, Chairman, for your respect. If it hadn't been for the opportunity and stage given by the Chairman, I wouldn't be where I am today. Thank you!"
Saying that, Song Sining bowed deeply to Wang Yi.
She is a grateful person and understands in her heart that if it were not for Wang Yi, she would still be a junior in college.
Where is the chance to become President Song of Meiyou Technology?
How can I have the chance to get an annual salary of 500,000 to 600,000 yuan before graduation? Drive a Mercedes-Benz E? And have an imperial household registration?
All this was given to her by Wang Yi!
Wang Yi smiled slightly: "President Song is my right-hand man. With President Song here, Meiyou Technology is booming, and Xingyi Technology is flourishing!"
"That's it for the year-end bonus. All the year-end bonus amounts will be credited to everyone's salary cards one after another this afternoon."
"There is also good news. I just received information from the Ministry of Justice that the case of iQiyi infringing many copyrights of Xingyi Video was held this morning. We won the case. iQiyi needs to immediately stop the infringement and apologize and compensate!"
"Wow!" Applause rang out, and everyone was excited.
This whole Chinese New Year episode made iQiyi feel uncomfortable.
Even Baidu is feeling uncomfortable.
Wang Yi smiled slightly: "The luncheon begins, there will be performances in the afternoon, and there will be a dinner in the evening."
“Everyone had a good time eating and having fun!”
Wang Yi waved his hand, the music started, and the luncheon officially began.
Many people's breakfasts are mostly make-do, and by this point they are really hungry.
Fortunately, Wang Yi had already prepared a luncheon, a sumptuous five-star meal.
As for whether it is a pre-made dish?
That's for sure.
There are so many people in the hotel, so it’s too late to make fresh food, so it can only be pre-made dishes + semi-finished products.
This is true for celebration banquets, wedding banquets, etc.
Whether it's an ordinary hotel or a five-star hotel, it's pretty much the same.
The only difference is that the pre-made dishes in five-star hotels are more refined and made of better materials.
We ate and drank until about three o'clock in the afternoon.
Afterwards, the food was removed, replaced with fruits and melon seeds, and performances began, most of which were submitted by the employees themselves.
Wang Yi sat in the central position, quietly watching the performances on the stage.
Many of the employees looked familiar to him and could not remember their names at all, and some employees had no memory at all.
Today's Xingyi Technology is developing rapidly, with talents from various fields joining every day, and Wang Yi cannot pay attention to them one by one.
They are all handled by Jian Ziyan, the heads of various departments, and the Human Resources Department.
As long as you are talented, Xingyi Technology will provide you with adequate treatment.
It is precisely for this reason that only employees with particularly outstanding performance can show up and leave an impression on Wang Yi.
Wang Yi didn't know the other employees at all.
As a result, some special opportunities have become the targets of everyone's competition, such as annual meeting performances.
If the performance leaves an impression on Wang Yi, it might be an opportunity to ask more about who this person is.
Although it is only a probabilistic event, it is also the goal that everyone is striving for.
Wang Yi knew this very well.
Many employees were like this when he worked in his previous life.
Those employees worked overtime to rehearse before the annual meeting, just to show off in front of the headquarters leaders and leave a good impression.
Once the leader has made an impression, if the performance becomes more outstanding in the later period, promotion and salary increase will be a matter of course.
Of course, there are also some people who only want to do their job and get the salary they deserve, and are not keen on climbing the ladder.
All I can say is that everyone has their own ambitions.
While watching the performance, Wang Yi was chatting and laughing with the presidents of various departments, and he was filled with emotions.
If he hadn't been reborn, he would have been the one sitting in the corner watching the show.
In his previous life, he didn't like to express himself, and he didn't want to climb up.
However, the two eldest brothers who were better than him in the department were too talented and fought too fiercely among themselves, resulting in both being fired.
The last opportunity for promotion became his...
Wang Yi smiled slightly: "From now on, all departments will employ people on merit, with the capable ones promoted and the mediocre ones demoted. Less formalism, less face-saving projects. More emphasis on hard work and performance."
"The assessment must be fair, and the promotion channels must be fair. Give more opportunities to young people. As for those old fritters who have no motivation, they should be demoted when they should be demoted, and they should be marginalized when they should be marginalized."
"In the future, Xingyi Technology will compete with BAT. Employees who cannot keep up with the development speed of Xingyi Technology are not suitable to stay in the core position."
"Yes!" The heads of various departments responded one after another, thoroughly understanding Wang Yi's principles.
Survival of the fittest, hard work!
Employees are a matter of quality.
The number of employees on Taobao is several times that of Pinduoduo, but its performance is not as good as Pinduoduo, which is the best proof.
After all, most of Alibaba’s employees are messing around and creating a mess. It wouldn’t be a big problem to lay off half of them.
Of course, if the small half that does the hard work is cut off, it will be over.
Alibaba’s euphemistic name is to provide talents to the society. In the past, Alibaba’s senior executives were also the talents that were competed for by all parties. But later, it was completely different...
The staff was very enthusiastic, and the performance at the annual meeting lasted until 7 p.m., when the dinner began.
At this time, Gu Qing smiled mysteriously: "Chairman, the next highlight is coming!"
"Oh? Is there a highlight?" Wang Yi became interested.
"That's right! When we learned that our Xingyi Technology was going to hold an annual meeting, some contracted artists under Xingyi Media took the initiative to apply to participate in the annual meeting and prepared performances for everyone. I can't stop you!"
Seeing Gu Qing's posture, Wang Yi laughed dumbly: "Why did you stop me? You couldn't have asked them to come, right?"
"No, am I that kind of person?" Gu Qing said with a smile, "They all did it themselves."
Wang Yi waved his hand: "Okay. Just look at the arrangements."
"Okay, Chairman!"
"March 21, 1985, the melody flowing by the Hessel River in the small town of Eisenach..."
Melodious music sounded, and Wang Long took the lead.
Everyone at the scene was shocked, and then they came to their senses: "Wang Long!"
"Bach Old Testament, Wang Long is here!"
"It's amazing. Director Wang invited all the celebrities to the company's annual meeting."
"Why don't you invite me? Wang Long is a singer signed by our Xingyi Media and our own artist."
"Yes, Xingyi Media has also signed some celebrities."
“The company is so awesome, I feel like I’m not even worthy of the company!”
"Hahaha, so funny. I took a look backstage just now. Xu Song, Xu Liang, Ben Xi are all here, Zhao Xiaodao is also here, and the people who are currently popular in "Northern Love" are also here."
"Oh my God, this lineup is worthy of the New Year's Eve concert."
"Yes, how many artists have our Xingyi Media signed?"
"Who knows, I don't know how much business the company has."
"Xingyi Technology has a bright future, and Mr. Wang is unrivaled!"
"Don't you like flattery the most?"
"It's not that I like flattery, it's mainly because Dong Wang is so awesome, I'm so impressed!"
"You boy!"
…
With the participation of many celebrities, the atmosphere of the annual meeting reached its peak.
Even Wang Yi drank a lot of wine, and it didn't end until ten o'clock in the evening.
"Thank you all for your hard work and hard work this year, thank you."
"Everyone has a good time tonight. The annual meeting is over and the annual vacation begins."
"Colleagues who want to go home can go home directly. Colleagues who don't want to go home, and colleagues from out of town, will stay at the InterContinental Hotel. The rooms have been booked, just ask the staff to get the room card. Breakfast is also ready for tomorrow morning.
Everyone can have breakfast and then go back."
"Thank you, Mr. Wang!"
"Thank you, Chairman."
Everyone was talking.
Wang Yi waved his hands to everyone and left with all the senior officials.
Although the five-star hotel is good, the partition walls have ears and there are so many employees there, which is inconvenient.
It's better to go back to Xingyi Technology Park, it's more reliable to have your own apartment.
After returning to the apartment, Wang Yi walked back to his room. Song Sining was a little worried and quickly stepped forward to support Wang Yi: "Are you okay? You drank so much."
As the chairman, everyone toasted to Wang Yi, especially the heroes and representatives. When the other party did it, Wang Yi only took a sip, but there were too many people and he couldn't handle it.
There is nothing we can do about this.
"It's okay, it's okay, I'm still under control!" Wang Yi said, walking to the bathroom: "I'll take a shower first, it's hot!"
Seeing Wang Yi swaying, Song Sining was a little worried: "How can you take a bath like this? I don't feel relieved."
"Let me help you!"
Saying that, Song Sining also blushed and walked into the bathroom.
Help Wang Yi take a bath considerately.
At first I just took a shower, but as I washed, the smell changed.
Song Sining was confused: "Are you really drunk? Or are you pretending to be drunk?"
"It's bad!"
Wang Yi laughed proudly.
Men are not bad, women are not loving.
Unlock new experiences and take a shower together.
People's joys and sorrows are not the same.
That night, the news that iQiyi lost the infringement lawsuit became a hot search topic and once again caused a sensation.
"Iqiyi is rubbish. It only knows about piracy and copyright infringement. No wonder it doesn't have any good dramas."
"For the same 15 yuan, if I open Xingyi Video, I can watch three popular dramas, but if I open iQiyi, there is nothing to watch."
"Yes, iQiyi membership is a scam, but Xingyi Video membership is more cost-effective."
""The Cliff" is the best spy game of the year, "Northern Love" is the best idol drama of the year, and "Xia Lan" is the best animation of the year. They are all on Xingyi Video. How can iQiyi compare with them?"
“Only those who are smart enough to sign up for iQiyi membership, but anyone with an online IQ will choose to sign up for Xingyi Video VIP!”
…
This wave of hot searches caused iQiyi’s reputation to plummet again, which in turn highlighted the power and conscience of Xingyi Video.
It all depends on the support of peers!
As a result, iQiyi lost a lot of members and users again, while Xingyi Video’s members and downloads surged again.
This scene made everyone at iQiyi feel helpless.
This is not only the psychological impact of a bad year, but also the impact on performance and revenue!
What's even worse is that due to this, parent company Baidu's stock price plummeted again after the U.S. stock market opened.
Li Yan was very anxious: "Madeh, he fell again!"
"In the past two months, Baidu's stock price has been falling, and its market value has also been falling."
"The previous market value was 280 billion, and now it is 135 billion, and it is still falling."
"For the Chinese New Year, let me drop it to more than 120 billion!"
It's okay if it goes up or down, but the problem is that Baidu's stock price seems to be poisoned.
Every time it falls by 20 billion, it rises by 2 billion.
As a result, the stock price halved and has not yet risen back.
The last time it finally rose to more than 140 billion, because iQiyi hired a pirate platform to pirate Xingyi Video's popular drama, and was caught, the stock price collapsed again, jumping to 130 billion.
Now it has finally risen to 135 billion, but due to a copyright lawsuit, it lost the lawsuit and plummeted again.
This time it went straight to 120 billion!
"hateful!"
"Damn it!"
"It's all iQiyi. If iQiyi hadn't provoked Xingyi Video, there wouldn't have been so many things later!"
The more Li Yan thought about it, the angrier he became. He decisively called Sun Yu and cursed:
"Sun Yu, you are a waste, you are addicted to food."
"I am not strong enough, yet I provoke Xingyi Technology!"
"Is it okay now? iQiyi is dead, with serious user losses, the number of members has been cut in half, and Baidu's stock price has plummeted, and its market value has been cut in half!"
"You trash, you can't do things well, you are the first to cause trouble! You trash!"
The corner of Sun Yu's mouth twitched, and he was even more aggrieved: "Director Li, did you scold the wrong person? I have been dismissed and am no longer the chairman of iQiyi!"
Li Yan's mouth twitched: "..."
