Chapter 957: Broken Up
"The proprietress has something to do and will be resting for a few days. We three brothers will do the work."
Wang Yan strolled into the shop and said to Huang Zimu, "She said you can handle the coordination, so this work is handed over to you. Make a good work plan, be as polite as possible when communicating with the clients, and be even more polite to those part-timers. You don't need me to teach you this. Also, if the client has too many issues and is looking for trouble, just call me, and I'll go communicate later."
"Brother Yan, rest assured, the proprietress has taught me, I have a count."
"This work doesn't have any technical content right now; it's mainly about patience. You do it for a while, and after a month or two, when our business expands, we'll hire people to take over, and you can go out and run around too. That's when it's time to train."
Huang Zimu nodded, feeling quite a bit of yearning. Since he was in this line of work, he naturally had to have some understanding. During this period, he checked online himself, and Xiong Qingchun and Zheng Qiudong told him about some more high-end things. Young people who are easily hot-headed are inevitably restless and eager to see the world.
Just like Zheng Qiudong, he just wanted to make money, wanted to get ahead, and wanted to be looked up to.
"How are things on your end?" Wang Yan turned to ask Zheng Qiudong.
Unlike Wang Yan, Zheng Qiudong was already developing headhunting business. Over the past period, he had been persistently and tirelessly visiting various companies. That was a list of companies in Nanning that Wang Yan had gotten, roughly containing addresses, main business, company scale, and other information. This was the benefit of the information age.
Wang Yan was still doing part-time market work, which was the current base, ensuring income and maintaining the company's normal and healthy operation.
Zheng Qiudong said: "I was just about to tell you. I recently contacted an internet company. They are taking on outsourcing work. They have a big project recently, developing a website, but they don't have enough manpower and need five more people. They need Java, Oracle, and front-end. I roughly understood it; this is a small project group for both front and back end."
"Brother Yan, aren't you proficient in computers? I was thinking that later, you can conduct an interview, and we can simply do some labor dispatch, and we can earn some money. They said it's a total of two months, and they are also hiring people themselves. If we can recruit them, they will interview them, and if they can work, they can be set directly. Eight thousand per person per month, but it needs to be fast. Web development, you understand it, right Brother Yan? Can you interview them?"
He was also a bit uncertain. Anyway, the two lived together, and every day he watched Wang Yan tinkering with the computer, looking very awesome, which was why he took this job.
The internet industry is quite hot now, there are many talents, and even more brick-movers. People who can work are actually very easy to find. The price of eight thousand is also considered a high salary. After all, what China lacks least is people. The heat of the internet industry in recent years has led to many people diving in, all moving bricks.
But this is not the problem; the problem is that it is not easy to find such part-time work. Programmers themselves are busy as dogs, with no black days or white days. Even if it is part-time, they are taking some small orders on some platforms. And this kind of full-day participation for two months is not easy to find. So if you want to do this work, it can only be signed by their company and dispatched.
After thinking about it, Wang Yan told Zheng Qiudong about these considerations, and then said: "You decide this. This business is not urgent; if we can't get it, we can't get it. You have been a compensation director at Shangu, so you still have to conduct research to develop business. Is eight thousand fair? We collect eight thousand, how much do we distribute to the employees who do the work? How should the treatment be set? We can earn less, but we can't lose money."
"And the connection between projects is also a problem. If we raise so many people, we lose money if we are empty for a month. This matter must also be considered clearly. If we start this, it will be hard to stop later."
"Yes, I investigated it yesterday. Eight thousand is already very high. Relatively speaking, it certainly can't be compared to Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, and Shenzhen. This eight thousand should be because of urgent use. Normally speaking, it is about five to seven thousand; this is application-oriented. Real internet talent is uncountable, and we can't contact them in the short term."
"I'm thinking, anyway, you are familiar with this part and understand the technology, so let's do it first. Nanning's high-tech industry is also developing quite well. It should be feasible for us to recruit a small number of programmers who work well. With both of us, Nanning is so big, it shouldn't be a big problem to have work to do. Even if there is a gap, didn't the proprietress say before that we can do local services?"
"By then, you can completely lead them to develop. Anyway, we are not in a hurry. We can afford the expenses of ten or so people. If there is work, we do it; if there is no work, we develop our own products, which can also improve technology. If this batch of people is brought out, they can be dispatched to other cities in the future. It is a trial after all, walking on multiple legs." "Besides, when registering the company, labor dispatch and information technology were registered."
"As for salary and benefits, I think we can't cheat people, can't eat human blood buns, and can completely talk openly and honestly. We can earn less money, and agree on what the treatment is when there is work, and what the treatment is when there is no work. Of course, we try our best to contact work; it is always good to earn more money. No one thinks money is too much, right?"
Hearing this, one knew that Zheng Qiudong had matured after thinking and already had a plan.
Wang Yan nodded: "Yes, you are responsible for this part. Ten people is the limit; too many and we can't handle it. By then, I will be responsible for the interview, and I will also train them in the future. Even after work, if there are problems that can't be solved, I can support remotely; it's all a small matter."
"Then it's settled, Brother Yan. Take some time to organize a technical requirement, and I'll post it online to recruit."
Doing as he said, Wang Yan didn't talk nonsense at all and wrote down the requirements directly. Zheng Qiudong was even more straightforward, edited the recruitment information directly, and posted it on multiple online recruitment platforms. He even sighed that the internet was developing fast, saying that someone submitted a resume as soon as it was posted. He immediately started surfing the internet to further understand relevant knowledge; if he didn't understand anything, he couldn't communicate.
One can never stop learning. They do human resources, engage in dispatch, and do headhunting business, so they must have an understanding of the corresponding industry. Not to mention how deep, but it certainly can't be too shallow, otherwise they wouldn't even know if they were cheated.
Now the company has four people, and the responsibilities are relatively clear. Wang Yan continues to develop the part-time market, Zheng Qiudong develops formal enterprise positions, Xiong Qingchun currently conducts coordination, and Huang Zimu assists in learning, which counts as each performing their duties and operating smoothly.
The efficiency of Wang Yan and Zheng Qiudong working together is very fast, mainly because they are both very straightforward. In more than two days, Wang Yan interviewed more than twenty people and finally kept four. Because Zheng Qiudong communicated with that internet company again, they had already hired one person, and there were four vacancies left.
Just like what Zheng Qiudong said before, two standards for having work and no work were implemented. If there is work, it is based on the corresponding company's quotation; if there is no work, there is no money, but social insurance payment is guaranteed. At the same time, Wang Yan is responsible for training, and by the way, he gives them software for their own development of local services, and also gives some money accordingly, which is relatively small.
The newly recruited people all went through two rounds of interviews. The first round was Zheng Qiudong; he understood the people and the treatment, and only then did it reach Wang Yan for technical interviews. After all, if the treatment couldn't be accepted, there was no need to understand the technical level.
In fact, relatively speaking, their treatment wasn't high, and skilled workers with high seniority weren't very interested. Their work wasn't that hard to find, so the primary personnel Wang Yan recruited were those who had been working for a little over a year and had participated in some project development that was relatively sufficient. They could work, but not that smoothly, and had room for improvement and cultivation value.
For this reason, Wang Yan specifically conducted technical interview training for them. Calling it training was just tearing down the key points of technical interviews from the internet, and he organized them himself.
Unsurprisingly, they successfully entered that company and participated in development work.
Wang Yan specifically pulled a dispatch group chat for their company. If the work wasn't smooth, they couldn't drag down other people's progress after taking the work. If there were problems, they would throw them in the group, and he would solve and guide them.
This was naturally short-term; they were all smart players. Once they had more experience, they would naturally become skilled hands. However, by that time, they might not be satisfied with the current treatment. Job-hopping was a very normal thing.
It mainly depended on how the company developed and whether it could keep people.
So when the fourth day morning came, Xiong Qingchun, who had been away for three days, came to the shop early and diligently cleaned up.
Walking in with Zheng Qiudong while laughing, Wang Yan teased: "Yo, the proprietress is back. Why do you look so low-spirited?"
Xiong Qingchun rolled her eyes: "If you have something to say, say it; if not, go to work."
Zheng Qiudong kept winking at Wang Yan, laughed, and walked to the side to get a thermos cup to soak tea.
Wang Yan walked closer and asked: "Can I move over?"
"Get out, get out, get out. I'm feeling uncomfortable here, what kind of crooked ideas are you having?" Xiong Qingchun looked annoyed, but her face was visibly blushing.
"Look, I had foresight, right? Following that kind of player, it's truly a waste. But you have to get the money back; no one's money is blown by the wind, and you even risked extortion to get it."
Wang Yan smiled and supported her shoulder with his forearm, "Have you heard that saying? The best way to forget a relationship is to start a new one. Only feelings are the healing medicine for feelings. You have to open your heart and accept new people. When you are immersed in new sweetness, you will find that the previous relationship is not worth mentioning."
"I'm going to scratch you."
Wang Yan used his hand to tuck her hair behind her ear, and when Xiong Qingchun was at a loss, he smiled and sat on the sofa at the door: "Tell you something, in the past two days, Qiudong started the dispatch business, it's an internet company, and four people have already been recruited to work..."
He talked about the plan he had discussed with Zheng Qiudong before, as well as the seemingly quite good salary and benefit system, so that Xiong Qingchun, the shareholder, had a clear understanding.
As for taking her down, he wasn't in a hurry. Although it is a fast-paced society now, excluding the situation of real bitches fishing, it always takes some time for feelings to ferment. Conversely, for those who easily roll into bed, it seems that neither side is very assured about talking about feelings, regardless of men or women, they always have to disguise...
Listening carefully to the development of these few days, Xiong Qingchun smiled: "Okay, it seems that without me, you two are developing quite well."
"Everyone has value. Serving tea and water and doing service, that also has value. Don't say such useless, discouraging words in the future. You are the proprietress, after all; steering and management are all things you have to handle. In our combination, we can't do without anyone."
"Brother Yan is right. When I came to join the team, I wasn't looking at Brother Yan, but at you, this daring scammer. With this kind of guts, you can achieve great things."
"Alright, alright, I know how many pounds I have. Don't put a high hat on me; I'm already taking advantage."
Zheng Qiudong laughed: "In ancient times, emperors conquered the world, were those around them all top-tier in ability? Impossible. Besides, you aren't bad at all, no need to think too much. Right, Brother Yan."
"That's right. If you were really useless except for being pretty, why would a big talent like me be shamelessly here and annoying?"
Glancing at Wang Yan, Xiong Qingchun waved her hand: "Let's talk about business. Didn't you say you wanted to develop our own products? What do you plan to develop? Or that human resources system you were working on?"
"That's for our internal use. Besides, I've almost finished developing it, and it can be used in another half month."
Wang Yan shook his head and said, "I discussed this problem with Qiudong too. We want to do local services. Currently, major companies have entered the market—group buying, food delivery, ride-hailing, and there are also 58. com and Ganji. com. These people are fighting until their dog brains come out. If we do local services, our business will inevitably overlap highly."
"We are small in size and don't have that much capital. We'll be crushed before we even enter the world. So we can only survive in the cracks, do business they haven't touched, occupy a first-mover advantage, and at the same time, do a good job in service, winning with quality and service."
It is 2013 now, and it is the time when the internet industry is lively. This is a real capital hunting ground, the competition is quite fierce, all fighting for their lives, all high-end business wars using all means. Similarly, this is also the time when users are truly God. Free food delivery, movies, ride-hailing, etc., are real benefits. Of course, the wool comes from the sheep, and later they were all cut back...
Xiong Qingchun said impatiently: "You've been talking for so long, what exactly do you want to do?"
"Do it all."
"I said, I know you have strong ability, but can you be more sober? We don't have that much capital; we have no capital. Even if we press all the savings of the three of us, it's not enough to hire people to distribute flyers. Not to mention other resources, we are truly empty-handed."
"Then do it small, take it slow."
"We have no money, so we won't do some business first. First, get a part-time platform, or reviews or something, just like Dianping—whether the restaurant is delicious, whether the service is good, what the company's reputation is like, etc. Publish it on the internet, and we'll distribute two flyers while we're at it. As long as we ensure the authenticity of the ratings, we can have a batch of loyal users bit by bit."
"In the case of few users, our income can support it, and there is no operational pressure at all. We don't even need to hire people specifically; I'll just take a look when I'm free. It's nothing more than some server and electricity expenses."
"When there are many users, do we still need to spend money? Even if we don't accept capital, relying on the subsidies of our human resources business, we can do it. If it's really like this, we can say it's just for interest, to realize life value."
"Of course, not accepting capital doesn't mean not making money. As long as there are many users, we can make money. We only need to cover the four big cities of Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, and Shenzhen. Although we can't have an exaggerated market value and can't sell shares for so much money, the dividends will be enough for us to be carefree by then."
"Small investment, betting on a big future, why not? You say so, right? Of course, our main business is still human resources. This is the base, and we must grasp it. This little expenditure certainly won't affect our normal expansion and development. It's just an internet wind outlet, right? Lei Zong said, even a pig can fly if it stands on the wind outlet. Let's try it and see if we can get fat."
"What you said makes sense, but I still feel it's a waste of money. Those big companies have investments of tens or hundreds of billions. What about us? What can thirty or twenty thousand do?"
"Take it slow, anyway, we're not in a hurry. If I don't do it, this software will take a year or two to develop. By then, our human resources business will have long since walked out of Nanning."
Wang Yan really didn't think about anything; his main focus this time was still human resources. The reason he got involved in the internet was because they opened a dispatch business, and he gave these people something to do when they were free. When they didn't do dispatch in the future, and these people had strong abilities, they might not be able to stay and continue working here.
To say he wanted to do how big, or stir up the wind and rain in the internet industry, that was absolutely not the case. Otherwise, why would he be working hard to run business every day? He could just make a PPT, pull investment directly, that would be much easier.
Furthermore, not to mention anything else, the harassment phone software he used for the transition in the real world, the property market is good now, he can provide services to major first and second-tier cities across the country, and he can earn hundreds of thousands a month just by lying down.
Zheng Qiudong stood leaning against the table, sipping tea: "Brother Yan is right. Anyway, there's not much money, so it's good to try, and we don't need to take it too seriously. Zimu is here."
"Brother Yan, Brother Qiu, Sister Qingchun, you're back."
"I heard you've been doing quite well in these two days."
Huang Zimu smiled: "It's okay, it's okay, the work wasn't that hard to begin with."
Zheng Qiudong raised his wrist to check the time: "Alright, work time is here, I'm going out to run business."
"I'm leaving too, the part-time market can be expanded further. Where are you going? I'll take you there."
"No need, the place I'm going today is far, I'll take the bus."
"Then you drive, I'll take the bus. Anyway, I'm just wandering around aimlessly."
Zheng Qiudong wasn't polite either, took the keys, and left.
Wang Yan said to Xiong Qingchun: "Proprietress, sit in the rear and watch the house well."
"Should I go out and take a look too? Anyway, Zimu is doing quite well."
"Let's talk about it in a while. There has been a lot of work in these two days, you have to contact and find some more fixed part-time jobs. Leaving."
Wang Yan raised an eyebrow at Xiong Qingchun to tease her, got a disgusted wave from the latter, and laughed as he walked out of the shop door.
He didn't go to find part-time jobs, but first found a place selling bicycles, spent a sum of money, bought a city riding flat-bar road bike, and wandered around the city quite comfortably. He was understanding this city.
His mind came up, and he even wanted to get a camera to take pictures when he was free. But thinking about the early stage of entrepreneurship, it wouldn't be good to show too much ease, so he gave up this idea and just pedaled the bicycle to enjoy himself... ===== CHAPTER 958 =====
