Coming to the living room and sitting down, Su Yehao asked the nanny to make a pot of coffee.
I specially found two Chinese aunts from San Francisco, mainly because they were worried that cultural differences would make it inconvenient to get along with them.
Moreover, the dishes here in the United States are not to his taste. Occasionally, he goes out to eat steak, burgers, etc., but most of the time, it is better to cook them at home.
When he came to the United States, the housekeeping company arranged for live-in nanny services. At other times, he just came over once a week to clean the house, so he was not afraid of being occupied. There are also professional security companies in Silicon Valley. You can pay them a small amount of money to look after them, and at the same time, they have various
With home security detection equipment, there is no need to worry about homeless people having your home stolen.
Roger Cruyff was about to speak when he was interrupted by John Zhou.
John Zhou had a flattering look on his face, he put his legs together, leaned forward slightly, and asked with a smile: "Mr. Xiao Su, didn't you have a good rest last night? Jet lag is really torturous. My daughter came to see me last month and was busy during the day.
I had to go to bed alone and had no chance to take her out to play."
"Yes, I went to bed as soon as it got dark and woke up again at three o'clock in the night. I'll just hold on during the day and I'll be fine in two days."
Su Yehao plans to stay in the United States for another ten days and a half this time, so it is necessary to adjust the time difference. If he only stays for two or three days, there is no need to adjust. No one is urging him to do anything anyway.
Nong Qingying, who came with him, accompanied him out in the early morning to watch the sunrise, and then went back to bed to sleep.
John Zhou continued to smile and told:
"Boss, you're still young. I don't dare to go back to Hong Kong City when I'm working. Once I'm in a state of chaos, I feel uncomfortable for several days. Now is a critical moment for the company's rapid expansion. TVT instant messaging software is very popular. Even Yahoo said
I have never seen an advertisement with such a high number of clicks and downloads. Users especially like the social function of personal space. After experiencing it, many programmers in Silicon Valley took the initiative to apply to join our team. Even people who know the industry know that it is going to be a big hit. This time it is really
Done!"
"The aroma of wine is not afraid of the depth of the alley. TVT is already very good. If you continue to work hard, the bonus at the end of the year will definitely not be less."
Su Yehao often understands the company's situation and has a clear understanding of the current situation.
He just likes to be a hands-off shopkeeper and is lazy, and it’s not that he really doesn’t care about the companies he founded. In fact, Su Yehao currently has the highest expectations for TVT, which focuses on international business. Otherwise, he would not ask for money or find people, even at the expense of
Used debt to acquire icq.
Roger Cruyff sat solemnly and listened to the two of them talking in Cantonese.
I gradually realized something in my heart, thinking that this should be what John Zhou calls "courtesy".
When guests were present, it was not polite to leave someone alone. Su Yehao briefly chatted with John Zhou, then brought the topic back to Roger Cruyff, saying in English: "Sorry, so Cruyff
Sir, are you planning to work at TVT?"
"Yes, I resigned from Microsoft and was depressed for a period of time due to family reasons. Now I have decided to work again. I think your company, Mr. Su, has great development prospects. The recent high growth has shown this, and it also has
The opportunity is to develop faster and grow to the heights of Yahoo and AOL."
Roger Cruyff seems to have a relatively stable character and a gentle appearance.
The first impression left on Su Yehao was a bit like that of the insignificant successor after Gang Leader Qiao left.
This kind of stability is in line with Su Yehao's development philosophy of stable rise. I felt pretty good, so I asked another question:
"Mr. Cruyff, I would like to ask, what happened in your family at that time that made you choose to resign? You should know that the company is at a critical moment. I hope everyone can focus on work, at least while at work. This is the time."
John Zhou had just said he wanted to help, but now he was distracted and did not dare to get involved rashly.
Gu Qin
Although I think Roger Cruyff is a capable old colleague, but it is related to a senior executive position. If he recommends the wrong person, his boss Zhou will be implicated, so I still think it is better to leave the full decision to Su Yehao.
Roger Cruyff glanced at John Zhou, sighed softly, and explained: "Last November, my wife had a car accident and stayed in the hospital for six days. She was not rescued in the end. This was a huge blow to me. It’s a shock, but I still have two sons with me, so I have to cheer up and take care of them. Mr. Su, you don’t have to worry about my condition.”
"I'm very sorry."
Su Yehao said he was sorry, but he did not regret exposing people's wounds. This kind of thing that may go wrong should always be asked clearly.
If you choose the wrong person and choose the wrong executive, the impact on TVT will be directly related to its development, and you are asking for trouble.
Until then.
John Zhoucai spoke up and said: "Mr. Roger Cruyff used to serve as the vice president of the business department at Microsoft. He has very strong personal abilities and rich management experience. Although his subordinate, my former boss, finally chose the overall My previous project team was laid off, but I must say that the layoff was actually correct and it could not create enough benefits for the company."
Hear the words.
Su Yehao nodded. Rather than finding someone who could work on paper, of course a talent like Roger Cruyff would be more in line with TVT's current needs.
The expansion speed of tvt was so fast that mistakes were made one after another. Not only were there bugs, but they also caused the server to be paralyzed for several hours. These all indicate that there are some problems in management.
Of course.
Su Yehao also knows that he can only bear the blame.
Draining traffic from icq, which has millions of users, is simply equivalent to stuffing several cans of milk into the mouth of a baby called tvt, and it is no surprise that it is vomited.
When we had three to five thousand users, we could still call it testing, but now we are serving hundreds of thousands of users. The fewer the number of program problems, the better.
This is why he was willing to spend a full 10 million US dollars to upgrade the company's data server. In fact, he didn't need such a good database in the short term, so he gritted his teeth and got it done for a rainy day.
Su Yehao was silent for a few seconds, and then asked: "I don't know yet, sir, which position do you want to do?"
"I heard that the company does not have a CEO now? Just call me Roger. I have always been inclined to management positions before. At most, I managed more than 600 employees. I am confident in this aspect. In fact, AMD has agreed to let me work on products.
Deputy Director, but I want to strive for higher achievements."
As Roger Cruyff spoke, he took out his briefcase, took out a document prepared in advance, and continued:
"These are some opinions I wrote after studying the development models of icq and AOL. My eldest son likes your products because seeing him using this product made me give up the idea of entering AMD."
AMD is the semiconductor manufacturer that was overwhelmed by Intel.
Although the benefits provided are good, it is just a good job with extremely limited room for advancement.
People without any special skills always like to hang on to their jobs, worrying that they won't be able to find other good jobs in the future, and just muddle along.
For a prolific man like Roger Cruyff who has no shortage of food and drink, it is not difficult to accept a gamble based on his preference.
