Vol 5 Chapter 686: Variety

Google headquarters in Mountain View.

Feng Yiping took a special look at the company's parking lot. There was indeed no luxury car added, but it was not unchanged.

If you look closely, you will know that among them, the old cars are much less, and correspondingly, the new cars are a lot more. Not only are they replaced with the latest models, but the grades are still somewhat improved, similar to replacing the original Corolla with the current Camry , Or replace the original Fit with the current crv.

You all buy airplanes and don't let us change cars. If you have money, you can't be willful. You can only spend so restrained. Those employees who choose to exchange some options will definitely feel a little bit aggrieved.

I don't know if he is too subjective or if it is true. He always feels that all the employees he saw along the way are in better condition than before.

To be honest, the state of employees is better than before, and it is not incomprehensible.

Wealth does not necessarily make a person mature, but it is easy to make a person calm.

For these guys who love their current job, when there were only two thousand dollars in their pockets, they certainly didn't feel at ease when they had at least two million dollars in their pockets.

Or, those who don’t care about their own wealth must know that even when these executives and ordinary employees are cashing out, their company’s stock still exceeds everyone’s expectations and is still rising.

Although I don't want to know how much the stock price has risen today, and how much my net worth has risen as a result, knowing that my net worth has been growing every day since the listing is undoubtedly a joyful thing.

If you feel happy, your state will naturally be better.

Therefore, the entire company, not only has not become lax because many people have become millionaires or multimillionaires, but has become more active than before.

The most noticeable thing is that there is still a long line outside Mayer's office. The sofas near her office are crowded with people who interview her.

These product managers look at their watches from time to time, see the progress in the office, and see how many people are in front of them, a bit like they are waiting for an interview.

From him, you can clearly see that Meyer is holding a report in his hand, and is talking to the guy opposite. From her unbroken mouth, she knows that she has entered the high The state of speaking rate.

Because she stipulates that every person who asks for work has only 5 minutes, so high-speed speaking is her normal state at such times.

And this often leads to another consequence, it is difficult for those who ask her for instructions on work.

More than one guy who did a good job, or those whose suggestions were good, did not work well, or whose proposals were very unsatisfactory, collapsed under her high-speed speech.

This is really a big difference between work and outside work. Of course, in this man-dominated world, sometimes, she may have to be tough.

However, as long as she faced Feng Yiping, she would mostly be an exceptional woman, no longer a stubborn, strong woman.

But the result was the same. Her strong work style caused many colleagues to avoid her, and her recent obsession made Feng Yiping avoid her.

He walked quickly past her office, and only hurriedly waved to those who were still waiting, and then he was surprised to find that among those who were waiting in line to meet Mayer, there was a vice president. He is still the vice president in charge of the search business, which seems to be a bit too far. The current position of this person is higher than that of Mayer.

Looking at Meyer who was discussing work with people intently inside, he couldn't help but shook his head slightly. She really needed to review, sometimes, whether it was too tough.

When he arrived at the door of Page’s office, he was about to knock on the door frame and found that another high-ranking guy, the first employee hired by Page and Brin, helped actually build the Google search engine. Craig Silverstein, who became a billionaire, was standing in the office, talking excitedly to the two founders who were holding hands.

And Peppa and Brin also looked solemn.

Feng Yiping hesitated and decided to wait a while.

Brin, who was facing this side, had already seen him walking to the door, and waved happily, "Hi, Feng,"

Peppa nodded at him when he heard the words, pulled Craig and said something.

Greg seemed to calm down, pursed his lips and nodded. When passing by Feng Yiping, he made a smiling face, "Feng,"

"Craig, you have to pay attention to rest," Feng Yiping held his hand and patted him on the shoulder.

He and Peppa and the others are also Stanford computer science graduate students. Although he did not have close contacts with Peppa and Brin at school, when he heard that Peppa and them invented the new Internet search algorithm ( That is, after the basic algorithm of Google search), Silverstein believed that the search technology of Page and Brin would have the potential to change the world, so he decided to join Google.

Therefore, he, who was also preparing to study for a doctorate, has not yet been able to get a Ph.

Of course, Stanford has so many Ph.Ds. Few graduate students are as outstanding as the three of them.

Although the age is the same, Craig looks much older. The two are still in their prime, but he even looks a little loose in the muscles on his face.

It is estimated that I have been busy for a while, and my long hair looks a little greasy, making it even more haggard.

From Feng Yiping's point of view, he should be more suitable for managing the current domestic trend. However, the more difficult the hair grows, the more he wants to grow it.

"Oh, thank you, I will pay attention,"

"Why are you here now?" Brin hugged him. "Man, you have to see the progress of our aircraft modification, oh, but it seems that the modification cannot be completed before we go to China."

"I will pack you a 747," Feng Yiping said with a smile.

"Feng, do you think the company has changed a lot now?" Peppa didn't greet Feng Yiping, walking around the office with his hands on his hips, looking not in a good mood.

Is this because of the problem Craig just reported?

"Of course, we have grown up now and are no longer a startup company," Feng Yiping said.

"Yes, we now have so many employees and so many products. It seems that we can't operate the company like before. It's time to change."

Feng Yiping is really curious now, what exactly Craig had just reflected, "It's okay you guys," he asked.

"It's nothing," Peppa shook his head, "Come on, let you see what we have been busy with recently,"

"This is a problem that we have been conquering recently. Speaking of which, its complexity is really not much simpler than our search engine."

"But, now we are not when we were the only two of you. We have so many outstanding engineering partners, don't we?" Feng Yiping said with a smile looking at the full screen of code like a book.

"That's right, so this system will definitely be put into use before the end of the year," Brin said.

"Well, I said, who of you is going to tell me what exactly does this complicated system do?" Feng Yiping shook his head. He really couldn't understand so much code at all, what exactly did he want to do.

"It's very simple. After it is put into use, our users only need to use our search, and this system can figure out which advertisement should be displayed on his page within a few milliseconds," said Page.

"Accurate advertising?" Feng Yiping blurted out.

In the morning, he was still talking about this issue with Zuckerberg, and now that Google has already prepared this idea for implementation, it’s a coincidence.

"Yes, that's what you mean. This system can use all kinds of obtained information and automatically correct the relationship between various elements. It will evaluate more than 1 million variables to select the most suitable advertisement from the advertisement database. "

"You two are geniuses," Feng Yiping gave a thumbs up. "As a Google customer, it seems that I have to ask Cummins to prepare and buy more keywords."

"Hehe, I believe we will not let you down, Feng, come and have a look, we have one more thought about advertising..."

…………

When I passed Mayer’s office again, the people outside her door were no longer visible. Also, someone gave 5 minutes to them. It is estimated that some may not take 5 minutes. Now almost three hours have passed. Can handle refreshing.

"Hello," he knocked on the door frame.

When Meyer looked up and was busy working on the computer, his eyes lit up, "Hey, please come in."

"Very busy?" Feng Yiping asked.

"Of course you have time when you come," she said with a smile, looked outside, stood up and took a document on the bookshelf behind her. In fact, she turned around in front of Feng Yiping in an open manner." Does it look good?" She asked, holding the file, like a little girl in desperate need of evaluation.

"Very beautiful, very suitable for you," Feng Yiping said, looking at her clothes.

This one has always paid attention to dressing up, and it is even more so now. The dress on her body is concise and clear, but it has a dramatic style. It looks like a high-end product.

"Oscar de la Renta's new product in the fall. I cashed out part of my options. I wanted to cash out more. After hearing what you said that day, I only cashed out a little bit."

"Mayer, did I just see Jim waiting outside your door?" Feng Yiping did not continue to discuss this issue.

Jim, that's the vice president he just saw.

"Yes, he has a product that needs to be upgraded and needs my signature," Meyer didn't think there was anything wrong with it.

"I want to say that having a plan is a good thing, but Mayer, can some of your methods be changed? You see, if you want to talk to you, you must first make an appointment on the spreadsheet you posted. Time, and it must be afternoon,"

"Your work is in order. Have you considered whether other people's work will be affected in order to accommodate your time? Will they have to interrupt some important processes?"

"Although I haven't asked you about work~www.wuxiaspot.com~, with your personality, I can be sure that some projects that require your approval are not so easy to pass. I may talk to you two or three times not enough,"

"I think, overall, this approach is not too suitable for the status quo. You should be more flexible. At least for executives like Jim, you should treat it differently."

He didn't directly say that Jim was higher than her. She should be very sensitive to such words.

"If I accommodate them flexibly and treat them differently, and their work will not be affected, what about me? Will my work be interrupted frequently?" Meyer said.

"You should assign jobs reasonably so that your subordinates can take on more responsibilities," Feng Yiping said bitterly.

"It's not necessary. As long as I arrange my time, I can handle all these problems alone. I usually make up for the work that I missed in the afternoon for a few hours."

Feng Yiping shook his head, "You are too strong, but Meyer, you have to understand that Google is not the start-up company it was a few years ago. We already have thousands of employees and are no longer the same as before. When Peppa's support is obtained by human relations, when everyone can support you,"

"Just to consider your future at Google, you should also have a good relationship with more people instead of letting them have a big opinion on you, are you right? Of course, this is just my personal suggestion,"

Meyer was silent for a while, wondering if he remembered something at the beginning, "I only sleep four or five hours a day, and I have strict work requirements. I don't think this is a problem."

Seeing Feng Yiping getting up to leave, she hurriedly smiled, "Well, I will seriously consider your suggestions. You made a special trip to tell me this, do you care about me?"
