There were two people sent by Kang Jianfei to Silicon Valley to prepare the company.
One is Jiang Qinghua, a 39-year-old man who fled Hong Kong from the Mainland. He smuggled into Hong Kong with his parents when he was 7 years old. His father died on the way, and his mother brought him up by washing dishes and clothes. Although this man is not highly educated, he is very capable at work.
Qiang worked his way up from a young employee to the position of head of the human resources department of Oriental Entertainment Brokerage Company, and also taught himself English and business administration courses.
The other one is Chen Shouying, 26 years old, with a PhD in electronics from the Chinese University of Hong Kong. He is responsible for the main work of the development of ec browser. He just graduated this year. Since there is no future in computer science in Hong Kong, he originally planned to come to the Silicon Valley of the United States to make a career.
, so Kang Jianfei threw him here to start a company.
The division of labor between the two is very clear. Jiang Qinghua is responsible for the company's administrative management and marketing, while Chen Shouying is responsible for the technical aspects.
"Xiao Chen, it's been several days, why are there no senior technicians applying?" Jiang Qinghua was annoyed because he couldn't recruit enough employees.
Since the establishment of Oriental Network Technology Company, secretaries, clerks, handymen, etc. were quickly recruited, but there was no one who really understood technology. In fact, this is normal. Nowadays, computer talents are not on the street, and all those who have the ability can go there.
It's a big company, even if you don't have much ability, you don't want to work for a little-known company.
Yesterday, a white man came to apply for a technical job. When he walked in, he found that the two supervisors were Asians, so he immediately turned around and left. The reason was simple: he didn't want to waste his youth in a company with no future.
As for why you think the company has no future?
Haha, Asians also understand high-tech computers!?
Chen Shouying said: "There are only two ways now. One is to find a headhunting company to recruit people with high salaries, and the other is to go back to Hong Kong to recruit people."
"Let's work on both sides," Jiang Qinghua shouted outside, "Mary, help me contact a reliable headhunting company!"
"Okay, sir." The female secretary responded.
Chen Shouying asked casually: "I heard that the chairman has come to the United States? He has many connections in the United States. Let him think of a way."
Jiang Qinghua said: "I came here the day before yesterday, but the chairman has a lot of things to do. He is inspecting Paramount and Oriental Pictures. If such a small matter of recruiting employees has to bother the chairman, then what else do we need to do?"
"That's right." Chen Shouying said awkwardly.
At this moment, a brown-haired young man with acne on his face walked into the company door and asked with a stutter: "Please...please...are you...recruiting...recruiting people here?"
The girl at the front desk smiled and said: "Yes, please come inside!"
The brown-haired young man was taken to Jiang Qinghua's office and introduced himself: "Hello, I...I...my name is Jennifer Cole, I...I...I am..."
Jiang Qinghua was impatient and immediately interrupted: "Are you here to apply for a job?"
Jennifer Curzon said: "Yes!"
Jiang Qinghua asked: "Where is your resume?"
Jennifer Cole quickly took out a resume and handed it over.
Jiang Qinghua opened it and almost told the stuttering man in front of him to get out of here, when he saw it read——
Jennifer Cole, born in Nevada, is 23 years old. He is a graduate of Stanford University. He is good at computer and Internet technology and has no professional experience. He was just released from prison after spending half a year on charges of data espionage.
"You are so candid that you even have a criminal record written on it." Jiang Qinghua said amusedly.
Jennifer Cole said: "Can you give me...paper and...and a pen?"
Jiang Qinghua handed him the pen and paper and said, "Please."
Jennifer Cole only wrote one sentence on the paper: "Mr. Kang Jianfei called to invite me."
Jiang Qinghua was shocked when he saw it: "Mr. Kang really invited you here?"
Cole added: "You can call to confirm."
"Okay, you're hired." Jiang Qinghua said helplessly.
In the afternoon of the same day, two more applicants came to the company. They all said that they were invited by Kang Jianfei. One of them flew from Sweden, and they all had criminal experience.
Jiang Qinghua was going crazy. He felt that his company had become a gathering place for criminals. He couldn't help but call Kang Jianfei and asked: "Mr. Kang, those people you invited are all criminals!"
Kang Jianfei smiled and said: "Of course, you can also think of them as computer geniuses."
Jiang Qinghua said: "Even if these people are talented, their character cannot be guaranteed. What will happen if they leak company secrets in the future?"
"That's something you should consider. Don't ask me." Kang Jianfei said unreasonably.
Jiang Qinghua was speechless, and finally sighed: "Okay, I will handle it."
The criminals recruited by the company were actually introduced by Little Fatty Jim. The youngest was only 18 years old, and all of them were hackers with special skills.
These days, it is not possible to become a hacker just by following a tutorial and programming a few Trojans. What they are facing are not Internet novices, but professionals from major companies, and those who can stand out have a few skills.
Take Fat Jim as an example. This guy can give countless top experts headaches. Many companies go to prison to ask him for advice on network security issues. He is simply awesome.
Chen Shouying, a genuine computer science doctor, was a little dissatisfied, but as soon as he came into contact with these people, everyone immediately became good friends.
In Chen Shouying's words, the computer skills of those bastards can only be described in one word, and that is - coquettish!
In just half a month, Kang Jianfei's ec browser was improved by this group of people, and various loopholes were patched by them, and some browser codes were also replaced.
In the Silicon Valley of the United States, a small company was quietly established, which later became the famous Eastern Internet Technology Company, or eitc for short.
Once you have a product, you still need to promote it, and this is Jiang Qinghua’s job.
When the company was founded, General Manager Jiang Qinghua personally led the team and went to each unit to promote it. First, major universities and laboratories in the United States, and then to large companies that were already connected to the Internet.
In order to seize the market first, EC Browser is free to install and has a one-month free trial. After the one-month trial period, users can choose whether to pay to use it.
It may seem ridiculous to future Internet users that a web browser requires payment, but in the 1990s it was quite normal.
As the major shareholder of Paramount Pictures, Kang Jianfei naturally had to install it for his company and directly paid for 300 sets of ec browsers, which brought the first revenue to Oriental Internet Technology Company.
With pictures and texts, ordinary users can browse the web by holding a mouse. Such an invention is of epoch-making significance, because it means the commercialization and popularization of Internet technology. (To be continued.)
