“Brother, are you going to the capital for tourism or business?
From the sound of your accent, you should be from Southeast Province, right?"
On the plane, Zhang Chao, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly asked and said with a smile, "My wife said that I should thank you for helping me. Wherever you are going, I will take you in my car."
"Haha, you're welcome, brother, I can go anywhere by myself."
Chu Nan smiled and said, "I am a student at Southeast University. Going to the capital... should be considered a trip."
"Hey, are you still in college?
Southeast University...that is a good school, and he is a top student."
Zhang Chao smiled and said, "I am also from Southeast Province. After finishing college at Beijing University of Science and Technology, I have been living and working in Beijing. My wife was introduced by my parents back home. I haven't been home to see my parents for a while since I gave birth to a child."
I took advantage of this annual break to go back home, and I just rushed back to the capital today to continue working."
Zhang Chao took the initiative to introduce his identity in detail, as if he could tell that Chu Nan was wary of him.
Chu Nan smiled and said, "I can see that your family is very happy."
"Hey, ordinary people, as long as they have a small family and can live a life of adequate food and clothing, that's all.
But in a place like Beijing, the pressure is too great, and you really can’t do it if you don’t work hard.
Especially in my industry, the competition is too cruel and technology changes rapidly. We have to constantly catch up with our opponents to survive for a long time."
When Chu Nan heard what Zhang Chao said, he couldn't help but asked curiously, "Can I ask, what does Brother Zhang do?"
"There's nothing I can't say. I'm engaged in Internet products and currently work as the R&D manager of a software company."
Zhang Chao smiled and said, “Although our company is not world-class, it is still pretty good in China.
By the way, have you ever used SQ chat room software?
That’s our company’s product.”
"What?"
Chu Nan was surprised and said, "SQ chat room software is your company's software?
Then your company is the famous Zhiqin Network Company?"
"Haha, let me tell you, you will know that in this entire country of China, as long as young people know how to surf the Internet, no one will use chat room software to communicate."
Zhang Chao said with some pride, "I designed the SQ chat room software."
Chu Nan was really impressed by Zhang Chao. He didn't expect that this guy was actually the designer of the chat room software.
SQ chat room is currently the most used instant messaging software on the Internet. Although there are many minor problems, this does not hinder the sales of this software.
After all, the communication software produced before was too crude. You usually had to use commands and codes to call up the interface, which was extremely inconvenient.
This also allowed SQ chat room software to become the most used software among netizens in the country as soon as it was released, and also allowed Zhiqin Network to transform from a small business into a large company.
"Brother Zhang, you are the R&D manager of Zhiqin Company. You make a lot of money that year, right?"
Chu Nan finally became interested in Zhang Chao and said with a casual smile, "Chat room software is a phenomenal software. Your company will definitely have a bright future after financing."
"Hey, if you don't believe it, my salary is really not high.
This company has a bright future, but its profitability is too difficult."
Zhang Chao smiled wryly and shook his head, "There are indeed many users now, but this chat room software is free. Just having market share can't translate into value.
The boss has said that he plans to conduct the first round of financing next year, but now the valuation is not very high."
Chu Nan knew as soon as he heard that Zhang Chao was right.
Although Zhiqin Company has a large number of users, it only has a chat room software, which is free, so its profitability is too worrying, and the treatment of its employees is naturally not good.
The more in-depth the chat went, the more Chu Nan had a plan in mind.
In fact, this is really a mistake, because one of the two newly designed softwares he designed is an instant messaging software! Therefore, once his Internet company is established, it will soon directly cooperate with Zhiqin Company and SQ
Chat room software became an opponent and they met each other in war.
At this time, he unexpectedly met a software design and development manager like Zhang Chao, which immediately gave Chu Nan a lot of daydreams.
For example, dig him over! Yes, Zhang Chao can design and produce chat room software, so naturally he can also develop other software. If Chu Nan can get such a talent, it will definitely be even more powerful! I didn’t expect that I took a plane.
, he accidentally stumbled upon a potential talent waiting to be discovered, and it would be strange if he was unhappy.
However, Chu Nan has not been dazzled by the joy. After all, Zhang Chao has not yet found Zhang Chao, and he does not know whether he is willing to resign and follow him.
Besides, Zhang Chao's ability has not yet been fully verified. Everything is just the beginning. Don't be happy too early.
"Brother Zhang, my major is actually similar to your industry. I majored in computer software engineering. Haha... maybe we can cooperate in the future."
Chu Nan smiled and gave some hints in his words.
Zhang Chao listened for a moment, and then said happily, "Oh... I just said that I am very close to your little brother! You actually study software, so we have a lot in common! You are right, maybe we can
The two of us will be able to cooperate in the future.
In this way, I still have a certain say in Zhiqin Company. If you graduate, please contact me and I will recruit you into the company and come to the R&D center I have. How about you?"
"Uh..." Chu Nan suddenly didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
It was obvious that Zhang Chaohui was wrong. He thought Chu Nan wanted to work at the Zhiqin company where he joined, and he started to promote the benefits of his company with great enthusiasm.
Chu Nan didn't even know what to say. After he finished explaining all about the company's benefits, he said, "I'd like to ask, Brother Zhang, how much is your annual salary at Zhiqin?"
"This year it will probably be more than half a million."
Zhang Chao said with satisfaction, "I have recently developed a new software. If the benefits are good after promotion, I will also increase my salary."
"If, I mean if."
Chu Nan smiled and said, "If a company was willing to offer you double the price, which means an annual salary of one million yuan, to hire you to join, would you be willing?"
"ah?"
Zhang Chao didn't expect that Chu Nan would suddenly ask such an incomprehensible question, and immediately laughed and said, "Little brother, please stop teasing me. I'm familiar with most of the Internet companies in Beijing. Who can offer a starting salary of one million yuan a year?"
Please ask me, it’s impossible...” “It’s true that the Internet industry is still in its infancy. Not only is piracy rampant and free, but it also doesn’t have very good profitability at all.
There are currently only two ways to make money online. One is online games, which make money by selling offline point cards, and the other is portal news websites, which make money by pushing advertisements through traffic.
The current profit method of Zhiqin Company is similar to that of portal websites. It relies on advertising revenue to make ends meet.
So Zhang Chao knows that it is basically impossible for a R&D manager like him to earn one million a year.
After all, Zhiqin is now considered a relatively large software company in China.
Chu Nan didn't tell the truth, he just made some insinuations.
After all, his current company has not even been registered. If he boasted that Haikou wanted to poach him, Zhang Chao, I'm afraid he wouldn't believe it even to death.
Unknowingly, the plane had arrived over Beijing, and an announcement was made to prepare to land at Beijing Airport.
Chu Nan looked out the window. Below the clouds was a prosperous and huge city. Compared with Yongning City, it covered a larger and wider area, and it was all on the plains. It could not be seen to the end...
