With the summary meeting information disclosed to all employees.
In the office area of 901 on the 9th floor, there were soon cheers of joy.
Although it was announced simultaneously that seven people had been fired, no one cared.
First, the work attitude of these seven people was very problematic, and their dismissal was considered a response to public expectations.
First, in the current company environment, being fired can only lead to a feeling of relief.
On the contrary, all the employees breathed a sigh of relief, because everyone believed that the rumors were indeed untrue and that the person who was eliminated at the bottom was false.
The happy atmosphere lasted for a long time in many office areas of Bolang.
This time, another 50 people, mostly ordinary employees, received stock options, which really gave all employees hope.
Those who can get options generally have to have advantages in multiple dimensions such as work performance, work creativity, and joining time.
In addition, the news was also disclosed that option grants will be carried out again at the end of the second quarter.
So all employees see is hope.
There are also emotions such as envy and jealousy, but not many.
Another aspect is that every employee who was not fired received a relatively good quarterly performance bonus.
Although he is gentle and uninvolved, the managers of each department distribute performance bonuses fairly, and everyone is happy.
Those who can become department managers are either shareholders or people with rich work experience, and they have a good understanding of the four words "work attitude" mentioned by Wen Liang.
For example, if there is favoritism in performance distribution, it is not a problem of business ability, but a problem of work attitude.
Putting aside options, performance bonuses are relatively generous.
So there's a bit of a whisper at the employee level.
"This is as good as my two-year year-end bonus in my previous company."
“It’s hard to compare without experience, but it’s very rewarding!”
"I heard that there are big bosses in operations and R&D who have received results of 20,000 to 30,000 yuan!"
"Damn it, cow!"
"..."
"There is news that I will have an early holiday in the afternoon and I will not work tomorrow."
"Eat it if you want!"
"It doesn't matter whether you can withdraw it in advance or not. Anyway, you will get double the salary starting from work."
"It has nothing to do with me. Anyway, I took the initiative to apply for overtime work during the Qingming Festival holiday, and I got three times the salary that day."
"..."
Then at 3:30 in the afternoon, Lixia sent an email to all employees, announcing that they would get off work at 4 o'clock today and take an early holiday tomorrow.
Of course, now even during the Qingming Festival holiday, people need to be kept on standby. It is destined that some employees can only continue to work with two or three times the salary.
Even if someone among them is destined to not be the target of this option grant, they don't mind.
Because Bolang arranges early leave on statutory working days, double wages, and triple wages on statutory holidays, are paid along with the monthly salary without any delay!
I forgot to mention that Bolang’s salary payment date is: the 29th of the month, and in February, it will be advanced to the last day of the month depending on the situation.
The monthly salary will be paid directly on the same month.
Unlike most companies that delay payment until the 12th of next month!
As soon as the news came out, the cheers of hundreds of Bolang employees almost shook the entire silver-gray building.
…………
At four o'clock, Wen Liang walked into 716 humming a tune.
Then, Wen Liang's eyes fell on Li Ze, and he raised his eyebrows and said: "Mr. Ze, I haven't read the mobile game business revenue report yet. Let me just say that if the turnover does not exceed 10 million, I will drive the one I raised immediately."
Ferrari hit you!"
Room 716 was quiet for only a moment.
Then there was a roar of laughter.
Zhao Mingjie, who laughed the loudest, slumped down on his chair, rubbed his stomach, and shouted, 'No, no, no, no'.
All gentle people are stupid.
He just talks normally, is it so funny?
Then, Wang Wanyu, who had just opened the door and came in, was stunned on the spot. She looked at Wen Liang and then at the others who were paralyzed with laughter. She raised her eyebrows in confusion: "What happened?"
"I don't know and I don't understand." Wen Liang spread his hands.
Little did he know that Zhao Mingjie, Li Ze and the others would suddenly collapse with laughter like this.
It was inevitable that he would mention Ferrari today, but now this situation is outrageous.
After a while, Li Ze, Zhao Mingjie, and Chen Jiaxin laughed and added the reason intermittently.
The few of them who arrived early made a bet.
Bet Wen Liang will mention Ferrari as his first words upon entering the house.
This is the result.
"Ha... cough... actually... I was laughing because your cliché of pursuing Ferrari made me very happy."
Li Ze wiped away the tears from laughter and was still laughing, but the more he spoke, the more he continued, and his expression became more comfortable.
"Compared to you who did everything beyond the limit of each of our imaginations and quickly brought Bolang to its current scale, we, at least me, would rather see you as a young man."
"I hope that we can be "fresh clothes and angry horses" all the way on the road to pursuing our ideals."
Wen Liang burst into laughter after hearing this, and looked at Li Ze like a fool: "It makes you look sad for spring and autumn. Why don't you want me to buy a Ferrari?"
"The chassis of a supercar is low, it can't run in urban areas, and my back hurts after driving for a few minutes. Shouldn't it look very romantic... romantic and rich?"
Seeing Wen Liang pause for a moment and even couldn't help but wipe his nose, Wang Wanyu said helplessly: "I know how to surf the Internet."
Fresh clothes and angry horses have already taken on a new meaning in the Internet society. The original meaning was "beautiful clothes and strong horses", but now it describes someone who looks very slutty and rich.
Wen Liang pretended not to hear.
…
All 11 co-founders are here.
Wen Liang, who was leaning on the table in front of the window, waved his hand lazily: "This is the last office meeting of the first quarter. I won't go into too much detail and let's get straight to the key points."
There are always some things that are bound to not appear in a regular meeting.
Office meetings are the discussion format used by Bolang for core development strategies and basic interest distribution.
Just like who is at the department manager level, it is obviously inappropriate to hold the share of option grants at regular meetings.
In addition to the arrangements made by the administrative manager of the R&D department, the arrangement of the 50 million loan, the plan and deployment of the self-built computer room, etc., there is no need for other managers including Li Xia to participate for the time being.
In a word: Wen Liang and the others are the actual owners of Bolang. Even if other managers have been granted stock options, they are now just more senior wage earners.
After scanning a few people, Wen Liang got straight to the point: "Although Bolang's development has been very radical in the past two months, I still prefer internal promotion of cadres. There are already enough people who directly serve as department managers."
Upon hearing this, several people immediately understood the core meaning. The young housekeeper Chen Jiaxin even said bluntly: "Is Mr. Wen dissatisfied with Yuan Shiya's performance?"
Wen Liang also said bluntly: "She is qualified to manage basic human resources affairs and overall management of human resources. She is indeed as unable to control as I expected."
Wang Wanyu took over the conversation: "The larger the company, the more important it is the basic quality of the personnel in the human resources department and the overall planning ability of the department managers. The recruitment and selection of personnel in this department cannot be radical."
"..."
After listening to everyone's opinions, Wen Liang also made a decision: "The company's internal management should be divided into modules. Extensive and radical development is suitable for the R&D department of the R&D department. Most departments can only adopt refined and grid management models, which must be clearly distinguished.
Come on."
Everyone nodded silently.
Afterwards, Wen Liang directly arranged: "In April, we will mainly recruit some high-quality talents, and send a few more catfish to the human resources department, R&D department, and product department to see who can win. There is no good way at this stage."
.”
Having said this, Wen Liang looked at Li Bowen and asked directly: "Bowen, if you prefer to do administrative things, I will arrange some incentives for you. If you prefer technical aspects, then you should go back to the R&D department."
Seeing Li Bowen's lips move slightly, Wen Liang waved his hand and added with a smile: "Don't be in a hurry to answer us. I hope you can dare to stand up for yourself no matter what you do."
Li Bowen nodded slightly, determination gradually brewing in his eyes.
Later, Wen Liang made further arrangements: "All bank loans will be used to build self-built computer rooms. Starting immediately after the holiday, administration, finance, operations, operation and maintenance, research and development, and products will be fully involved. One requirement, good and fast."
"The initial plan is to move into IFC in the third quarter. Comprehensive preparations must be made for finance and administration, including forward-looking consideration of office space, construction of a nearby employee canteen, etc. All must be taken into consideration."
"good."
"clear."
Wang Wanyu, Li Ze nodded in agreement.
Nowadays, Bolang's office area in the Silver Gray Building is too scattered, which is actually not conducive to the management of initial development.
IFC rent is a bit expensive, but it can be very helpful in improving Bolang's image in all aspects.
In Yangcheng, apart from the non-office-style landmark Xiaomanyao, the West Tower IFC will come to mind when you go up a building.
…………
Finally, it’s about the revenue report.
Li Ze did his job, cleared his throat, stood in the middle of the office, opened a folder in a dignified manner, and spoke seriously.
“In the first quarter, Xiaochengshu’s self-operated advertising business revenue was 95.2 million!”
“In the first quarter, the Xiaocheng Book platform’s advertising business revenue was 53 million yuan, and the revenue attributable to the company was 15.6 million yuan!”
"In the first quarter, "Martial Gods Three Kingdoms" brought in a total revenue of 9.99 million!"
After talking about the three important data, Li Ze quickly added: "All data are as of 12 noon today. They are not the latest data. Mr. Wen, don't get excited. Hey~ you can't hit me!"
Everyone couldn't hold back their joy and burst out laughing.
This revenue performance is really outstanding.
The revenue target for the first quarter of Xiaocheng Book set at the beginning of the year was 70 million. The expected target was 90 million, but it actually achieved 95.2 million.
The expected turnover during the open beta of "God of War" was to exceed 10 million, and it reached 9.99 million at noon. Now it has already exceeded 10 million.
Broadly speaking, Xiaocheng Shu’s self-operated advertising business revenue of 95.2 million in the first quarter can be considered slightly low.
Xiaochengshu, which has an advantage in competing with Weibo, naturally compares its revenue with Weibo.
As far as Wen Liang knows, Weibo’s original annual revenue in 2012 was US$66 million, which equals US$5.5 million per month, which works out to a monthly revenue of close to 35 million yuan.
The average monthly revenue of Xiaocheng Book in the first quarter was only 31.73 million.
This is the first quarter in which Xiaocheng Book has been at the height of Internet popularity for almost the entire period. Moreover, Xiao Cheng Book’s advertising business has opened up online and offline, local life services, etc., and Xiao Cheng Book’s revenue per user has far exceeded that of Weibo from the very beginning.
Bo!
Therefore, theoretically, the monthly revenue of Xiaocheng Book should be higher than that of Weibo. Based on the number of users of Xiaocheng Book since the New Year, the monthly revenue in the first quarter should be 50 million yuan.
The fundamental reason why the current single-month revenue is more than doubled is that Xiaocheng Book is gradually releasing advertising resources on the App side.
After the laughter stopped for a moment, Wen Liang affirmed the bumper harvest in the first quarter: "It is natural to have a bumper harvest in the first quarter. Our country always likes to get off to a good start, so we must make good use of it next!"
After a special pause, Wen Liang waved his hand: "Because in the second quarter, advertising resources on the Xiaocheng Book App will be fully released!"
Without giving everyone a chance to speak, Wen Liang looked at Wang Zhiyi: "Xiao Wang, come on, reduce user complaints by optimizing the algorithm, and explore how to display ads more appropriately on the app."
"Okay." Wang Zhiyi responded.
Then Wen Liang looked at Li Ze with a smile: "Mr. Ze, we will talk about bonuses later. You should first set yourself a revenue target for the second quarter."
Li Zenong frowned slightly and set a broad target: "Let's set the total revenue attributable to the company for the second quarter to 200 million."
As soon as this goal was announced, everyone's eyes immediately lit up and they praised it.
"Okay, Aze!"
"Congratulations in advance to Aze for achieving another great success!"
"..."
Finally, there is the issue of quarterly bonuses and dividends -
