58. The fragrance of a single dog
Lu Zhou did not continue to drug Cheng Xuyuan.
Many times, this is how you talk. If you say half and leave half to give the other party room to imagine, the effect will be more ideal.
Anyway, he won't go back to Guangnan until tomorrow, so he is not in a hurry, but waits for Cheng Xuyuan to start the conversation again.
Until the end of the meal, Cheng Xuyuan did not mention Lu Zhou's business venture again.
Lu Zhou was not in a hurry and asked, "What activities are going on later? It's rare to come to the capital, so you have to show me around."
"Okay, let's find a bar and chat for a while."
The two were about to leave when a white-collar worker walked in front of them, holding some ingredients in his hand.
She was a little surprised when she saw Cheng Xuyuan, "Huh? Brother Cheng, why are you here? Your department won't work overtime today?"
He smiled and said, "Yes. A classmate came over and asked for a leave from the supervisor."
And the other party said "Oh" meaningfully, "Okay, you guys can talk. I'll leave first."
Lu Zhou watched the conversation between the two and remembered how people in later generations ridiculed the Big Three, "Qiandu Performance View, Ali Values, and Penguin Product View."
Although the statement is somewhat biased, it more or less reflects some realities.
KPI performance appraisal management was used by most Internet companies in the early years because the relevant results and milestones of Internet companies are very easy to digitize.
For example, the number of users, usage rate, retention rate, etc. can all be expressed with precise data.
The reason why thousand-degree KPI is criticized is simply because something went wrong.
Alibaba is amazing. They often take values as an important consideration in recruitment and assessment. They pay attention to whether they have the "smell of Ali" and whether they can use Lao Ma's "Six Meridians Divine Sword". Even if an employee has excellent performance
, but if the values do not match, they may only be regarded as a "wild dog".
Lu Zhou couldn't tell what this "taste" felt like. "Maybe it's the fragrance of values," he thought.
The Penguin product view reflects the fact that Penguin is a company that thinks about products from the user's perspective. From the earliest compression of client size to adapt to dial-up networks, to community space, penguin show, and penguin pets, it then transformed into entertainment games and
Content is the core...
It always appeals to the humanity of users in its products. It understands you, so you are willing to spend money.
Later, Cheng Xuyuan led Lu Zhou to a Qingba bar.
Lu Zhou borrowed the words of the white-collar worker just now and asked Cheng Xuyuan, "Is there an assessment coming soon? What level have you been promoted to now?"
"t4."
Lu Zhou smiled, "It doesn't reflect Master Cheng's strength and ability."
The T level of Qiandu is a technical position. For fresh graduates, it will take one to two years to get promoted from T1 to T4, as long as there are no production accidents. It will not be too difficult.
At t5, it is a watershed, representing the meaning of senior engineers.
For employees with mediocre abilities, it may take several years to overcome this hurdle, while for those with good performance and great benefits to the company, they may be promoted in a very short time.
Obviously, Cheng Xuyuan is not included in this list. He may have outstanding abilities, but it is difficult to reflect his performance in the work he is responsible for.
"Well, to be honest, I didn't think much about it before I came in. After I came in, I realized that wherever there are people, there are rivers and lakes. Although it is vulgar to talk about money, but after taking into account overtime and the cost of living in the imperial capital, it is really no different from you.
"
Cheng Xuyuan said leisurely.
"That's what happened."
"In addition, older employees are more familiar with the business and have more stock options in their hands, so they can survive the slow promotion at a low level. I am a t4, and it will take a lot of time to be promoted to a 67 to be in charge of a large project.
It's easier said than done. I just want to learn technology and experience a large-scale project in the future. In fact, this future will take many years, and I don't even know it myself."
Lu Zhou naturally understood that when he later switched to Toutiao, he had no hope of promotion and his room for growth was compressed.
Cheng Xuyuan changed the topic again, "But then again, why are you poaching me as a T4 guy when you have nothing to do? I'll get a lot of talents for you."
"You exude the fragrance of a single person."
"..."
Cheng Xuyuan was stunned as he listened to Lu Zhou's words, "Forget being single, what does this dog mean? What does Qingxiang mean..."
Lu Zhou laughed, he was not joking.
The so-called creative integration, what Lu Zhou has seen over the years, is nothing more than exploring human nature in loneliness.
It doesn't matter whether you are single or not, the most important thing is the word "dog".
It can refer to the experience of losing one's soul, or it can be a person who is naturally good at being alone. Only such a person can explore the user's inner thoughts, observe, and understand.
Then again, Cheng Xuyuan can shoulder the responsibility of short video development in Toutiao. How could Lu Zhou ignore this fact.
As for the fragrance, it was nothing more than the part where Lu Zhou had just remembered teasing Ali.
He wasn't worried that Cheng Xuyuan wouldn't understand, since it didn't hurt if it was a joke.
"Hehe. The most important thing is, I can dig you out for a t4 without spending much money. It's just a matter of words."
Cheng Xuyuan felt it was funny, just kidding, Master Cheng is so easy to dig, even though it is only T4.
Lu Zhou took out his mobile phone and opened a simple WeChat client he had made before.
"Look, say something."
Cheng Xuyuan took the phone, "Huh? Communication application?"
When he clicked on it and took a look, he couldn't complain about Lu Zhou's aesthetics, "What kind of bullshit did he do?"
"Um, I'm incompetent in aesthetics. Please understand. The layout and icons are all hand-drawn by me. The point is the idea."
Cheng Xuyuan said indifferently, "This idea is nonsense. Just tell me, what does it mean for the menu bar to be so high? Do you think the 3.5-inch screen is too big? Also, the avatar in this dialog box is too big. Has the picture been compressed? It's a waste.
Traffic. Is the chat box set so small that users can use a magnifying glass to see..."
Lu Zhou laughed heartily after hearing this, "I'm sorry, I have a beautiful wife at home, so I can't understand the behavior of a single man." He complained in his heart.
After a long time, Cheng Xuyuan finally stopped talking.
"Generally speaking, although the appearance still needs a lot of adjustments, if you think about it carefully, it makes some sense."
While thinking about it, he continued, "In fact, Penguin's current client is not ideal as a whole. I have tried out the last few iterations of the version. Penguin itself has more and more business functions, and the menu level is becoming more and more complex.
.When you combine it with the mobile address book, it is nothing more than returning the application to the essence of communication, giving up the original cumbersome virtual social circle, and creating a social circle of acquaintances.”
After Lu Zhou heard this, he couldn't help but gasped, "Good guy, you really have something to say."
"That's the original intention. I think you should have accepted Penguin's offer from the beginning. You are more like a product manager."
Cheng Xuyuan did not answer Lu Zhou's words, but changed the subject, "But you still can't avoid a question. If Penguin intervenes, how will you, a piece of shit, survive in the competition with Penguin?"
"Can you please stop being such a bitch and say 'you bitch'? Wechat, thank you."
