Vol 4 Chapter 244: Fortunately having you

Unlike other companies that at least look vigorous in the morning, the morning of Google, which is in a critical period, still seems to be a little awake.

At this time, the company’s coffee machine is similar to the punch card machines of other companies. The engineers report to the place one by one, holding a large cup of coffee back to the seat, filling the large cup, rubbing their eyes, shaking Shake your head and immediately continue the unfinished work.

The difference is that there are obviously more people in the company. Although they are not wearing suits, they are obviously different from these coders. They should not be as busy as these engineers. People are newly added sales personnel or other personnel who are not directly responsible for product development.

As the development of new products becomes more and more smooth, the search share is getting bigger and bigger, and the advertising revenue is getting higher and higher. Page is also more and more confident. Finally, there is no need to worry about losing the dominant power. Need, finally no longer ignore or set limits.

Of course, this has nothing to do with the people recruited by Schmidt, who all have computer backgrounds.

At the same time, this is indeed a realistic need. As more and more products are developed, it has become important to let the public understand all the services that the company can provide, and to be willing to accept and use these services. These things depend on software engineers. They can't, they have to be done by professional personnel.

Without these professional sales personnel, some of the best products that Google has already launched and will launch soon will not be able to obtain the market effect that it deserves.

However, due to the influence of the founders, in the company, these salespeople with a computer background are naturally not as important as software engineers.

Engineers can be arrogant and unattended, holding a computer and walking sideways in the aisle with slippers. These salespeople are much lower-key.

Feng Yiping is the same. After joining the company, he consciously stepped aside, but he looked at these busy people, whether they are proud engineers or low-key sales staff, and felt very pleased.

By next year, whether one's wealth will increase by US$3 billion or US$4 billion will all fall on the work of these people.

But people like him, no matter how low-key, are sometimes still as eye-catching as fireflies in the night sky, Meyer holding a few folders, at a glance recognized the guy in the gray sweater and khaki pants in front of him. Which guy.

Although I haven’t seen the front yet, I can guess it just by looking at his brisk walking. He is in a good mood, so Mayer is not very beautiful. You can guess it just by looking at his back. This guy last night What have you done.

With a sunny smile, Feng Yiping, who was actually humming a song silently, was bumped in the back by a serious person, "It's okay, buddy,"

After speaking, he realized that the one behind him was a beautiful female fellow.

"Are you in a good mood," Meyer said.

"That is, as long as you enter the company, you will feel very good. When you see you, how can your mood be bad?"

"It's true," Mayer murmured, "I want to see my gift soon," she put a word down, and ignored Feng Yiping, a project leader like her, now things Too much too much.

"What do you expect me to give you?" Feng Yiping said heartily.

Before he walked to his office, an electric car painted in blue, red, yellow, and green standard colors of Google's trademark lightly crossed in front of him. "Feng," Brin gave him a big hug. "Welcome back,"

"Thanks, buddy, where's Page?"

"In the meeting room, let's go, it's almost time for the evaluation meeting,"

…………

"Is it all right, how is it?"

At this time, the style of Google's meeting is still very sharp, not like a discussion, but like a fight.

However, after more than ten minutes passed, even Page put down his computer and looked at Feng Yiping nervously, "What's your comment?"

Just now, when they were fighting, oh no, when they were discussing, Feng Yiping has been experiencing the upcoming browser.

"I think it's pretty good," Feng Yiping said affirmatively in response to the expectant gazes around him.

So everyone sighed.

"Easy to install and simple interface,"

Hearing this, Meyer, who was also present at the meeting, felt a little proud. She was responsible for the product interface.

"Stable performance, safe use, and powerful settings." Feng Yiping doesn't hesitate to say something about the browser that Google has developed several years earlier. If such a good product is released before the market, it is impossible not to have a positive effect on the stock price. influences.

"Feng, just say it's not enough," after getting the "very good" evaluation, Page did not want to listen to Feng Yiping's praise and affirmation.

"Okay, I appreciate your talents and hard work very much. Many people know that I can't even write a single piece of code now, so I have no comments or comments on the professional side."

"What I want to talk about is some feelings of use," Feng Yiping said. "In terms of use, I have some small comments for your reference. Of course, I don't know whether these functions are difficult to implement, but I know if these If the function can be realized, the user experience of our browser will definitely be much better than other browsers."

Feng Yiping walked to the whiteboard hanging on the wall, recalling the functions in the browser he was used to later, according to the order of use, first mentioned one, "First of all, when we enter the URL, can we realize the URL? Prompt for input and auto-completion function?"

"For example, if we enter the word White House, the browser will automatically complete the URL for us. I think we started out as a search and we have a unique advantage in this respect."

Page whispered a few words to Brin, "It's really good, anymore?"

"Also, can we add a historical record query function? List the browsing records of the most recent period in the form of a list, so whether we accidentally closed the browser, or want to look at the webpage we just closed , Will be very fast and convenient, even if you restart the browser after an error, you can still retrieve the opened webpage."

This, for Google proficient in search, should not be too difficult to achieve.

"Third, after the installation is complete, can you automatically import the password information in the system's default IE browser into our Google browser? It saves us that we have to start from scratch when we open related websites. enter,"

"At the same time, in some cases, can we choose whether to keep or automatically clear the history, personal information, etc. left during the surfing process according to our actual needs through settings and definitions?"

"For example, some browsing records that we don't want our male and female friends to see?...,"

Feng Yiping recalled some of his later experience using the browser, while writing his opinions on the whiteboard one by one.

It can be seen from the looks of everyone that most of the opinions he put forward have not been considered by everyone, and they are also convinced that if they can do what Feng Yiping said, then the user experience of their browser is definitely first-class One great.

The engineers, including Page and Brin, as well as Schmidt, are thinking nervously at this time. Is it realistic to achieve the goals Feng Yiping just put forward?

Several vice presidents who have recently arrived, all look at Feng Yiping a little strangely. What kind of perspective is this? Can you put forward so many helpful comments after only ten minutes of trial?

They didn't think about how long, because the big boss has already made a decision for everyone, "These areas that need improvement mentioned by Yiping are all good directions. After a preliminary analysis, it is not difficult to implement these additional functions. , Please organize related development immediately,"

…………

"Feng, I'm so happy to have you here," Page looked at him happily and said, "I insist on letting you experience the product that will be launched. Now it seems that it is really necessary."

"Tell me that these are not just outsiders? I'm glad I can help,"

"Hehe, yes, next, there are still some questions that need to be solicited from you, some arrangements for the listing work,"

This, even if he doesn't mention it, Feng Yiping is also ready to ask, this is always one of his core issues.

"Feng, let me briefly explain to you the latest news about the listing." This part is introduced by Schmidt.

…………

With excitement and excitement, Zheng Jiayi and Wu Xinyang, along with other colleagues, were temporarily incorporated into several project teams of nextdoor.

Different from Feng Yiping’s decisive role in the Google meeting at this time, on the first day, they were not assigned any challenging tasks. They listened to the discussion meeting of the project team in a familiar way, and tried to write down those senior employees. Then, the senior employees carried out their work based on the discussion results of the meeting. Most of them can only help organize the information, and only a few can help collect the information.

But even if it is such a task without any difficulty, they still do it meticulously.

What they now urgently need is not how to stand out at work, but to understand the work process, habits, habitual ways and methods, how to divide labor and collaboration..., etc., some universal experience.

"It feels like I'm back to the time when I first went to the unit for an internship in my senior year." At lunch, after Wu Xinyang had a meal with her group, she still found time to chat with Zheng Jiayi.

"Now is another internship period," Zheng Jiayi said. "Actually, I feel more like I was just sent to the first grade by my parents. When I was preparing for enlightenment, I didn't understand anything, but I was very yearning and prepared to devote all of myself. Work hard physically and mentally,"

"It's just that those senior students don't seem to be much ahead of us, right," Wu Xinyang was a little relaxed.

They all have work experience, and they have their own thinking about some of the specific issues discussed in their group just now, and they feel that they are not surprising with the views of their senior employees.

"Yes," Zheng Jiayi also agreed~www.wuxiaspot.com~ I gained confidence all at once,"

"Hey, take a look, why are people here, whether it's our company or other companies, dress so casually, it's rare to see someone wearing a suit?" Wu Xinyang said something that she didn't understand.

Although they are not majoring in computer science, some well-known programmers in the country have the impression. From the previous Qiu Bojun to the second place on this year's rich list, Classmate Ding, when they usually appear, they are all in suits and shoes.

"I also heard Feng Yiping say that the Silicon Valley side has a different understanding of dress. They don't value whether job applicants are in suits or not, but they care about knowledge, and there seems to be a study. It is said that the failure rate of people wearing suits exceeds that of wearing casual clothes. Pretend,"

"Really?"

"That's true. Of course, it certainly doesn't apply to all industries. The reason behind it is that the company hopes that employees can work in a relaxed environment as much as possible. Under such a state, their work efficiency will be high."

"However, some companies in the human resources department said that it is inappropriate to wear jeans and travel shoes at least during the interview."

"In short, the United States advocates individuality, and many companies do the same, so sometimes there are even completely opposite requirements."

"For example, when some companies are hiring, they hope to meet those employees who have a strict look and even the furnishings on the desks are strictly in accordance with the standards. However, for some, such as General Motors, they pay special attention to the desks when recruiting employees. Is it messy? They even ask if you squeeze the toothpaste from the middle or the back. They think that such an unruly person will not take the usual path and will be very creative."

"Feng Yiping also said?" Wu Xinyang said with a smile.

"He really said it,"
