On weekends, Xu Cong rarely takes a break.

To be honest, the current working environment in the Internet industry is much better than the working environment in the future.

At least there are two days of rest on the weekend, which is enough for Xu Cong to do his own things.

The first thing Xu Cong did was to recruit his subordinates.

Although Xu Cong now has very strong technical strength and sufficient background.

However, one hero has three gangs.

On the other hand, Xu Cong's own energy is limited. At the same time, some of the company's technology patents still require corresponding professional personnel to carry out research and development from theory to finished products.

"To be honest, it's still difficult to recruit people now..."

At this time, Xu Cong found that it was still difficult to recruit people. First of all, the Internet in this era was not particularly developed.

There is no dedicated recruitment platform on the Internet.

Some large company recruitment can be seen on the official website. After all, large companies have a very good reputation and are basically the first choice for some job seekers.

As for small and medium-sized companies, they usually cooperate with some universities and colleges, and conduct unified school recruitment from March to April every year to recruit corresponding talents.

It's just that Xu Cong is a little anxious now and urgently needs more talents to join his team.

"Now it can finally come in handy!"

Xu Cong quickly came up with a solution. He stared at the number on his phone that had been on the blacklist for several months, and quickly used the computer's virtual call method to call it.

After Xu Cong became famous in the industry, he was targeted by many large, medium and small companies. At the same time, Xu Cong was approached by countless headhunting companies.

As for how Xu Cong’s phone number was exposed, I’m afraid it has something to do with these headhunting companies.

These headhunting companies are not only a company that helps other companies poach employees, but are also a company that gathers talent information.

These companies can use corresponding methods to obtain information about many talents and corresponding communication methods.

What these headhunting companies are most concerned about is the annual recruitment of talents in colleges and universities.

Often headhunting companies will infiltrate the talent recruitment of corresponding colleges and universities and obtain a large number of information about college graduates.

In this era, data and information are money.

These headhunting companies that have obtained a large amount of information about college graduates will resell the corresponding information to other companies that lack personnel to obtain consulting fees for the information.

This is why Xu Cong’s number can be easily found by various headhunting companies, and at the same time, major game companies can obtain Xu Cong’s number.

It's just that Xu Cong now needs to rely on these headhunting companies to provide him with more talent information to prepare for the establishment of his company.

What Xu Cong needs most now is a professional manager.

Now Xu Cong still needs to stay at Tiancheng Company to work. Xu Cong doesn’t really have much time at his disposal.

At this time, the role of professional managers is fully revealed.

The company's venue rental and registration, and even personnel recruitment, can be left to professional managers, allowing Xu Cong to deal with Shengda while quietly making adequate preparations for the development of his company.

Xu Cong soon spent several thousand yuan to buy some information about professional managers directly from headhunting companies.

Among the many professional managers, one name directly interested Xu Cong.

"Isn't this Xiaoyaozi? It's just that there seems to be no Xiaoyaozi and Feng Qingyang in this parallel plane!"

Xu Cong couldn't help but mutter to himself when he looked at the information of the professional manager in front of him.

In a mansion in Shanghai, a middle-aged man in his thirties is sitting in front of a computer, watching domestic financial news to judge the current economic situation at home and abroad.

"Ding...ding..."

A ringtone rang next to the computer, but the middle-aged man quickly chose to hang up.

Less than a minute after hanging up the phone, a text message appeared on the middle-aged man's cell phone.

"Hello, Mr. Zhang, I'm sorry to disturb you in this way. I am an Internet entrepreneur. I hope to invite Mr. Zhang to join my team. Of course, I also sent an email to Mr. Zhang's email address. If Mr. Zhang

If you are interested after reading the email, you can contact me by phone or text message!"

The middle-aged man looked at the text message in front of him and hesitated for a moment before logging into his mailbox directly. At this time, there were more than a dozen emails in his mailbox.

After opening several emails, the middle-aged man finally found the email sent by Xu Cong.

Looking at the several thousand-word article in the email, the middle-aged man read on with curiosity.

However, the more he read, the expression on the middle-aged man's face became more and more serious, and his reading speed became slower and slower, as if he wanted to read this article carefully and clearly.

An email that could have been read in five minutes was read by a middle-aged man for half an hour.

"It's really interesting. I haven't seen such an interesting email in a long time!"

After reading the email, the middle-aged man also showed excitement on his face.

After calming down for a while, I directly replied a message to Xu Cong.

Xu Cong on the other side is programming on the computer while waiting for a reply.

When he saw the text message ringtone coming from his phone, Xu Cong couldn't wait to pick up the phone.

Sure enough, the other party was still shaken, and now he just waited for Xu Cong to give him a time and place to meet.

It's evening, a coffee shop on the Bund of Shanghai.

Xu Cong is sitting on a bench outside the coffee shop, holding a cup of coffee and watching the other party's arrival.

"Here, Mr. Zhang!"

Seeing the target appear, Xu Cong immediately waved to the middle-aged man who had just arrived at the door of the coffee shop.

The middle-aged man heard the sound at this time and looked at Xu Cong, who was sitting not far away, with a little surprise in his eyes.

After all, Xu Cong is too young, which is somewhat different from what middle-aged people imagine.

"Hello, Mr. Zhang, I am Xu Cong! Just call me by my name!"

"Hello, Mr. Xu... I didn't expect Mr. Xu to be so young!"

The two of them exchanged a brief greeting and seemed to know each other.

Xu Cong’s target is Zhang Yong, who succeeded Lao Ma in the parallel world.

Maybe the name is a bit unfamiliar, but what he has done is very powerful.

For example, Zhang Yong is responsible for the success of Taobao and Tmall software.

Zhang Yong's most famous achievement is turning a holiday celebrated by singles into a carnival shopping festival for all.

The Double Eleven Shopping Festival was created by Zhang Yong!

Zhang Yong is indispensable for the corresponding e-commerce shopping to become mainstream so quickly.

Of course, Zhang Yong also has a very special identity, that is, the former deputy general manager of Shengda.

It's just that Zhang Yong resigned more than a year ago due to personal reasons, but there are still some similarities between the two.

In Xu Cong's original space, Lao Ma made the prototype of the e-commerce platform and trading software.

Zhang Yong officially joined Alibaba at the end of 2007 during its rising period, and relied on his own efforts to quickly become the company's CFO (that is, in charge of money and investment) within a few years.

Of course, Lao Ma did not like CFO Zhang Yong at first, and even the bosses of many companies had some estrangements and opinions about CFO.

After Zhang Yong relied on his own efforts to make e-commerce platforms like Taobao and Tmall popular, Zhang Yong gradually had the opportunity to fight for his successor.

To be honest, there are actually many well-known figures in the industry who have gone from marketing management and money management to CEO.

Zhang Yong is one, and Cook, the current CEO of a fruit company on the other side of the ocean, is one.

It's just that there are too many different things in this parallel time and space. Lao Ma did not succeed. After the company went bankrupt, he was engaged in the field of extracurricular education.

Even Steve Jobs, who claimed to have changed the entire technology industry, did not bring out the Apple that shocked the world. He died of illness early and handed the company over to Cook.

This also allows today's Xu Cong to discover pearls like Zhang Yong.

But Xu Cong also understands that it is difficult to recruit the other party.

First of all, Zhang Yong himself was once the deputy general manager of Shengda Company. Is he willing to lower his status and join a team like Xu Cong that does not have any power or influence?

These are all unknowns.

At the same time, everyone thought that Fang’s salary once amounted to one million per year, so how much money should I get to let him work for me?

Although professional managers are known as the best at beating workers, this kind of beating is not cheap.

In a very simple way, what Xu Cong can provide now is a small temple.

Whether the big Buddha Zhang Yong is willing to join his small temple depends on the other party's wishes.

But Xu Cong believes that there is no chance.

After Zhang Yong read the email, he was willing to meet him offline, which meant that Zhang Yong had certain insights into the future development of the Internet industry.

Of course, as a former senior worker in a large Internet company, Zhang Yong still has a very vicious vision.

In the next hour or so, the two people's conversation gradually started from the current development of Internet online games to the future development trend of the Internet industry.

We talked about e-commerce and logistics!

We talked about social software and online games!

We even talked about the future of the Internet!

However, during the chat, Xu Cong still made a lot of reservations, and some of the words he said were relatively general and had certain opinions.

Of course, what Xu Cong said still inspired Zhang Yong a lot.

Even Zhang Yong couldn't help but begin to pay attention to this young man Xu Cong.

Although the words in it are somewhat imaginative and unconstrained, they are very feasible.

He is worthy of being the person who proposed free games, but it seems that his views on the Internet are more thorough than those on online games.

Gradually, Zhang Yong also took the initiative to turn the topic to Xu Cong’s team.

After such a long chat, Zhang Yong also began to have the idea of ​​joining Xu Cong's team.
Chapter completed!
