Vol 3 Chapter 177: Infighting

readx(); Yes, be regarded as a disciple! Beauty, it is inevitable to always be so confident.

What's more, even Schmidt said that she is the representative of Google’s facade and public image, not to mention the things that discerning people have noticed between her and the company’s founder Page, in this three-acre area of ​​Google, she So confident, that is justified.

But now Feng Yiping really has no thoughts in this regard.

After arriving at Stanford, I have seen a lot of unknown blonde beauties. They are younger and more beautiful than the one in front of me. Although sometimes it is inevitable to look at them a few more times, that is, if he sees one Beautiful, just thinking about developing on the bed, how can there be time to study and work?

What's more, today is an important day for him and for Google. What's more, the one in front of him is obviously a bit entangled with Page. How can he have those thoughts?

However, there is no need to explain to her, nor is it easy to explain to her? How to explain to her, "Ah, beauty, you think too much, I am not interested in you at all,"

That's the truth.

"How do I feel that the office area is a bit messy?" Feng Yiping simply refused to answer her words.

Now Google’s office area is quite messy. It’s not a neat grid. The office area is large or small, and the desks and chairs are of different specifications. Each table and side are decorated according to the owner’s mind. Different styles.

Recliners, couches, these things that were later in Google's office area, they also have them now, as well as foosball, billiards and other entertainment facilities... In short, they seem to be the same as the classrooms and college boys' dormitories that have not been cleaned by kindergartens. Complex.

"Chaos? We feel very comfortable! We advocate freedom. The main purpose of all these facilities is to serve the employees. To serve the work, the others are secondary."

Feng Yiping ignored that topic. Meyer was more serious.

She calmly looked at the little brother in front of her, dressed neatly and decently. But the clothes and shoes are very common. The backpack is a luxury brand, but it is an old model many years ago. The most valuable one is to count the watch on his wrist.

She had heard of Feng Yiping's blue ocean strategy, but did not finish reading the cloud computing he proposed. It's really good, but he doesn't know anything about programming, and he is so young that he has no experience or experience. How could Page and the others think about letting him be the chief strategy consultant at the vice president level?

Is this really a genius like them?

"Is the company's restaurant free for employees?" Feng Yiping asked again. He wanted to know whether this benefit of Google was there from the beginning.

"Yes. Provide employees with a free buffet, which was the case at the beginning," Meyer said. "When they rented Ms. Wojcick’s garage, they often looted her refrigerator. This tradition continues. Come down,"

"Also," she said, pointing to the only room with closed doors and no large glass. "That's a massage room. We hired a full-time masseur. Massage for employees in need,"

This little brother in front of me. She has the stability of an adult and the aura of a superior, which makes her unconsciously restrain her pride.

…………

In the small conference room, Page looked at the general report made by the finance department after summarizing the opinions of all parties. Without saying a word, Brin also took the report and frowned at the final conclusion, "Thank you!"

The heads of the three departments who were hurriedly recruited by them were a little confused when they got up and left.

And the two founders suddenly put forward so many ideas, and after getting the general report on the budget, they refused to comment. What does it mean?

"If so many new projects are launched at the same time, the company's finances will definitely be difficult to maintain," Schmidt said. "Although Feng's analysis is right, from the current situation, I think the development of some projects will be delayed until next year. Or do it later, no problem,"

"This year's revenue should be between 200 and 300 million U.S. dollars. If you rely on your own funds and a new project is still possible, then there is no problem not accepting investment at this time."

"That's too slow," Page looked at the last part of the report again. If new departments such as cloud computing, browsers, mail, and electronic maps are set up at the same time, the funding gap will be very large.

"Whether to strengthen our existing projects, or to develop so many new projects at the same time, I think this question is debatable."

Schmidt is still reluctant to accept large amounts of foreign investment at this time, and this investor seems to have a good affinity with Page and the others.

This is what Peppa and Brin worry about. When it was so difficult, he insisted on his control of the company. Now that the company is on the right track, they are even less willing to have such a situation.

"Because of Sequoia and China, we must go public," Brin said while looking at Schmidt.

For venture capital companies, the sooner the company goes public, the better, so that they can get a return in a shorter period of time and withdraw funds faster. "If Feng accepts our employment, he will definitely give Other options,"

As long as he accepts this job, Feng Yiping will definitely have shares in the company in the future.

"So I think there is nothing wrong with accepting his investment,"

Page also nodded, "I agree."

Rather than find other institutions for financing, it is better to accept Feng Yiping's investment.

Moreover, what Schmidt opposes is generally a strong reason that Page chooses to support.

Of course, if Feng Yiping waved the check and took the initiative to come to the door, with Peppa's temperament, he would probably not accept it. He would definitely doubt Feng Yiping had any intentions.

But now it’s different. They took the initiative to look for Feng Yiping. Feng Yiping’s financial strength was beyond their expectations. Moreover, the two investment reasons Feng Yiping mentioned can stand firm and accept his investment. problem.

The question now is, how much to accept and what share?

Page wants to discuss this question privately with Brin, "Let’s go find Feng,"

"Wait," Schmidt stopped them and took out a document. "I have discussed this issue many times. I think it is urgent to recruit a vice president in charge of product management. At present, there is just a suitable one. Candidate, Jonathan Rosenberg,"

Peppa did not accept the document, "I have to think again, at least, after confirming Feng's matter,"

"But, you have considered for a quarter,"

Page waved his hand, placed Brin's shoulders, and walked out.

Schmidt sighed, it seems that this matter is destined to have no results.

Why did Feng Yiping pop up at this moment?

Page hired Feng Yiping as a strategic consultant, and he also had this consideration.

He has been reluctant to give up his post. In response, he insisted on launching a reform in July last year, before Schmidt took office.

He announced at a temporary conference that he would dismiss all project managers and all engineers and report to him.

He has three reasons: he does not like the supervision of engineers by non-engineers; engineers should not accept the supervision of non-engineer managers with limited professional capabilities; and the work of project managers is not satisfactory.

This is actually his method of centralizing power. If this reform is successful, even though he is only the product director, he still controls all the power in his own hands. In other words, what is left to Schmidt is a void. The seat and title of the shell.

Unfortunately, that reform did not succeed in the end. This is not the start-up period. Google's engineering team has grown too fast. He alone cannot meet the requirements of so many engineers.

Because of this, he was always vigilant about Schmidt's actions to expand his strengths, such as recruiting the management team and sales team, and even the recruitment of a front desk must be confirmed by Page.

It stands to reason that it is indeed necessary for Google to hire a vice president of product management. Without Feng Yiping's accident ~www.wuxiaspot.com~, he can only agree to Schmidt's request today. There is really no reason to delay.

However, since Feng Yiping has cleared away the mist in front of them and clearly pointed out the future development direction and the products that need to be developed, what else is the vice president responsible for product management?

At most, set up some project leaders, and let them report to their own product director.

"By the way, Brin, the position given to Feng cannot be the vice president in charge of strategy. We should let him serve as the director of strategy and be directly responsible to the board of directors."

With Schmidt as a training partner, Page matured quickly and immediately thought of a question.

Brin also reacted. Schmidt is worthy of being a veteran, a vice president, so he assigned Feng to his side. The vice president is of course responsible to the president.

Before, Feng Yiping was still led by Meyer to visit the company, "Hi, Feng," Peppa ran over, "Investment quota, the financial department needs time to calculate, and it will take the afternoon to get results at the earliest. Experience our experience at noon. How about the buffet?"

investment? Meyer was taken aback for a moment. Does this guy really want to be his other boss? (To be continued.)
