Chapter 455 Tengda lays off staff, sprouts become a god, Ah Li is hard to calm down!
"80 billion..."

Standing in front of the French windows on the top floor of Tengda Building, Second Master suddenly felt that the scenery downstairs was not so beautiful.

I can't feel the slightest sense of accomplishment from overlooking all living beings before.

But looking up, the second master could clearly feel that a sky-shattering giant who seemed to block out the sky was silently looking down at the Tengda Building.

The giant who broke the sky was none other than a competitor from the same city - Germination! ! !
A profit of 80 billion in a single season is likely to be a goal that Tenda will not be able to achieve in its "lifetime".

How can you not despair? !
Especially today's Tengda is still in a precarious situation.

The two core businesses of games and social networking are being squeezed by Qinghe Group, and they are losing ground. However, the new business has not been able to convert it into revenue, and is even in the process of bloodletting.

This has put Tenda's capital chain under constant pressure.

While the second master was standing by the window in a daze, Lu Jian walked in and carefully asked for instructions: "Boss, about the 10% layoff of the interactive entertainment business group that was proposed earlier?"

Although the previous protest of Fengyu did not get the support of the board of directors, it was temporarily shelved after all.

"Resolutely implement it!"

The second master took a deep look at Lu Jian, the timing was really right.

"it is good!"

Lu Jian also remained expressionless. He knew very well that it was indeed a little unethical to report the layoffs to the big boss at such a time, but it was the easiest way to get approval.

In the face of Tengda's revenue pressure, Yuyu's resistance will become insignificant.

This is indeed the case.

As long as the goal can be achieved, it doesn't matter if you are scheming or not.

Who in the workplace is not scheming?
"By the way, boss, the Moyin app under the Qinghe Group has gradually improved a bit recently. Should we increase our support for short videos?"

Lu Jian was undoubtedly smart. After the goal was achieved, he immediately reported to work again.

Appear conscientious.

As I said before, under the instructions of Zhang Shuo, Qinghe Group, which is in charge of the operation of Moyin, basically adopts a stocking model for the early development of Moyin app.

Neither Weixin nor Tiantian Toutiao and other traffic platforms have diverted the magic voice.

But even so, with good content, an intelligent recommendation mechanism, and a budding golden signboard, the downloads and number of daily active users of the Moyin app are steadily increasing.

Up to now, it has steadily entered the top ten sequence of short video apps.

"What do you think?" Second Master asked without answering.

"I think, from overseas experience, long videos are the mainstream development direction of streaming media in the future. At least for now, short videos have not shown any amazing potential."

Lu Jian is still very superstitious about overseas experience, after all, he started by learning from and following the trend.

"I think so too."

Erye himself is not very optimistic about short videos. Compared with the uncertainty of short videos, long videos can gain a near monopoly status as long as they control the copyright.

The copyright monopoly is the most in line with Tenda's tonality.

What's more, today's Tenda really has no extra resources to lean towards the short video field, and can only make a choice between long video and short video.

That's all for now!

.........

Ali headquarters.

"bud……"

If it is said that after Mengya voluntarily disclosed the financial report to the outside world, who is most upset, it must be the uncle.

Gein, in the eyes of the uncle, Qiandu and Tengda have already shown signs of falling behind, but Ari is still making rapid progress, at least the main business of e-commerce is like this.

That is to say-

Among the Big Three, only Ari is left, who can even wrestle with Mengya.

As for Big Brother, he has status in the world, but in terms of resources that can really be used, he is actually powerless. At most, he just uses his mouth when gathering in private.

Uncle has long been ready to start anew.

But as soon as the budding financial report came out, the huge profit of more than [-] billion yuan in a single season directly pierced the last trace of arrogance in the uncle's heart, and he was nothing but stunned.

Although among the 80 billion, there is actually a contribution from Ahri...

Shopping malls are like battlefields, which means that shopping malls are dangerous and intrigues. In fact, there is another meaning, that is to say, business competition has always been based on strength.

The budding strength is there, it is the best deterrent to all challengers!

Who is not afraid of the three-pointer?

"Zhang Shuo is amazing. Green Orange Group didn't participate in subsidies for food delivery, shared bicycles, and online car-hailing before. I thought it was because the capital chain of Germinal was tight, and good steel should be used wisely."

"Who would have imagined that Germination has plenty of funds, but it can hold back from subsidizing all the time."

"Such a kind of forbearance really makes people shudder."

The uncle is not without emotion.

Ren Xiaoyao, who was sitting opposite, was slightly surprised. If he remembered correctly, it was the first time he had heard a positive comment on Zhang Shuo from the boss.

It can be seen that the impact of this incident on the uncle is really no small matter.

"It's incredible!"

Ren Xiaoyao also deeply believes that the more he understands the inside story, the more he will be in awe of Germination's restraint. It is true that he is a very terrifying opponent.

Under this kind of restraint, whether it is the Arnold Group or Tick Tock, it is difficult to say that they will be Qingcheng's opponent.

So frustrating to think about!

.........

Not only the old man recalled, after experiencing the initial shock, there were also many smart netizens who interpreted deeper information from the budding financial report.

"Takeaway, shared bicycles, online car-hailing, Qingcheng are almost all pioneers. It is Tengda, Ali and others who, through simple copying, and then take the initiative to set off a subsidy war, have the so-called latecomers."

"Forcibly use the power of capital to compete for the market share that originally belonged to Qingcheng."

"I used to think that Qingcheng was hard to beat with two fists and four hands, and Germinal's capital chain was tight, and he couldn't afford a subsidy war with Tengda and Ari, so he chose to endure it."

"Looking back now, that wasn't the case at all."

"Sprout prefers to use funds for research and development, and does not participate in this kind of subsidy that has no lower limit and cut leeks. If Sprout is considered disorderly expansion, then what are Tengda and Ali like?"

"The facts are already obvious. It's not the sprouts who want to expand without order. On the contrary, it's Tengda and Ari. It's just that Tengda's strength is not enough, and they haven't done it. That's all."

Netizens are finally telling the truth!

"That's right!!!"

"Sprout is an eternal god, who will say that Germination is a disorderly expansion in the future? It's either stupid or bad!"

"support!!!"

"Ahli: I don't accept it!!!"

"Tengda: I didn't provoke any of you!!!"

"Qiandu: It turns out that I am not worthy, not even qualified to be trampled on."

Once this wave of analysis came out, it completely reversed the public opinion on the Internet. It not only saved Mengya, but also made Mengya's image in the hearts of Chinese netizens even taller.

By the way, I also stepped on a wave of Tengda and Ari.

With the desolation of the Big Three, the online public opinion that lasted for more than a week finally came to an end.

At the same time, with the temporary subsidence of the budding enthusiasm, Tengda appeared in the focus of public opinion in another way, not for anything else, but because of the layoffs of the interactive entertainment business group.

After the second master nodded, Lu Jian finally officially launched the plan to reduce the interactive entertainment business group.

He was merciless.

Needless to say, the Tenda employees who appeared on the layoff list naturally had resentment in their hearts, and some internal chat records naturally appeared on the Internet.

"Tengda layoffs..."

Just such a combination of keywords is enough to spark heated discussions on the bib.

It quickly became a hot search!

Right now is not the period of the Internet bubble, on the contrary, it is the booming period of the mobile Internet, and one of the three giants like Tenda has started layoffs, and the intensity is still so large.

It really shocked the jaws of many people.

"How come? Tengda is one of the Big Three anyway, isn't it?"

"It's incredible!"

"It's nothing surprising. The target of Tenda's layoffs this time is the interactive entertainment business group, which is mainly responsible for the game business of Tenda. I don't need to say more about the performance of Tenda games in the past one or two years?"

There are also those who know how to do it.

"It's true. With the birth of Jade Bird Interactive Entertainment, today's Tengda games are no different from those of Wang Yu. It's really lonely."

Thinking of this, many players who have experienced the highlight period of Tenda games still can't help but sigh.

Of course, after sighing, it is carefree and comfortable!
"It's right that Tengda Games has to lay off employees. Look at the past two years, does Tengda have even one original game that can be sold? No matter whether it is a mobile game or a terminal game, it is extremely bad, and it is completely hopeless."

"It can only be said that the light of Jade Bird Interactive Entertainment is too dazzling."

"It's all an excuse. Jade Bird Interactive Entertainment is very strong, but it's not enough to monopolize all the originals. What's more, Jade Bird Interactive Entertainment is not a global buy, buy, buy, and buy. It relies on its own original strength."

"Could it be possible, there is still an upper limit for originality?"

"It can only be said that Tenda's game itself is at this level, and it's just showing its true colors right now!"

Generally speaking, netizens did not have much comfort for the dismissed employees of Tenda.

On the contrary, it was the layoff announcement issued by Tenda's personnel department, which caused a lot of heated discussions on the Internet, what is personnel optimization, and congratulations on graduating from Tenda ahead of schedule.

Those who didn't know the truth thought that Tengda was not laying off employees, but sending talents to its peers.

"Optimization ≠ layoffs?"

"Haha, this is a dead duck with a hard mouth!"

"Tengda: Anyway, he is one of the Big Three. Do I want to lose face?"

"Goddammit, I'm graduating early, I really don't want Bilian."

"It's because of face..."

"Actually, it's okay. Those who were admitted by Tengda before must have been excellent talents. Even if they are dismissed now, they won't have to worry about finding a job after they come out, right?" Some people retorted.

After all, Tengda is a big factory, so it’s a joke, but don’t treat the bean buns as dry food.

After all, strength lies there.

Think about it, every spring and autumn recruitment, how many outstanding graduates, squeeze their heads, just want to get an offer from Tenda?There is no way to say that I can't find another home.

"It's really not certain!"

"First of all, those who can be dismissed by Tengda, without thinking about it, must be the kind of bastards who are not very capable, or who have worked for a long time."

In any company, there is no lack of fish and water, even if it is a big factory.

"Such people are often high-sighted and low-handed, and they are used to staying in a big factory like Tengda. The good ones haven't learned it, but they have learned the 'proud' all over. The kind who can't work outside the Tengda system."

"If you want to get a job again, it's often too high or low."

"At least Jade Bird Huyu won't want these people who were dismissed by Tengda..."

There are indeed many talents on the Internet, and the fact is the same. For the game talents who were dismissed by Tengda, Jade Bird Interactive Entertainment did not show any interest at all.

On the contrary, quite a few people sent their resumes to Jade Bird Interactive Entertainment, but there was basically no news from them.

In addition to the lack of analysis ability of netizens, there is another very important factor, that is——

As early as last year's autumn recruitment, Zhang Shuo told Wu Sheyuan, the human resources director of the group, to strictly control the growth scale of employees in the group's Internet business line, and no longer engage in large-scale recruitment.

It can be regarded as a rainy day.

In the past year, although the revenue of Jade Bird Interactive Entertainment has been growing rapidly, in fact, there have been no new game studios, basically all the original team.

Naturally, there is no need to recruit people on a large scale, let alone being eliminated by Tengda.

With Jade Bird Interactive Entertainment as the world's largest game manufacturer, if you want to recruit talents, what kind of talents can't be recruited in the world?

Many talents from the beautiful country and Europa are even willing to come to China to work in order to join Jade Bird Huyu, which shows the status of Jade Bird Huyu in the global game circle.

Not to mention Jade Bird Mutual Entertainment, even the likes of Internet suppression and Juren are lack of interest in this.

Pick and choose.

As a result, Tenda's layoffs this time caused a lot of trouble internally because many employees who were included in the layoff list failed to find a suitable next home.

"I have shed blood for Tengda, why do you say layoffs are just layoffs?"

"It's not fair, there is a shady scene!!!"

"I hope that the group can open internal job transfers, and can't just cut things off like this."

In particular, many old employees with mortgages on their backs were suddenly dismissed, and the future was immediately gloomy. Many emotional people rushed to the second master's office directly.

It made Tenda's interior go crazy.

In the outside world, due to Tenda's layoffs, Tenda's stock price will naturally be under pressure, falling for several days in a row, and even some rating agencies are preparing to downgrade the rating of Tenda's stock.

But there is another voice too.

It is believed that Tenda is decisively laying off staff and reducing costs at this time, and it may not be able to recover from the ashes in the future. After all, no one can decisively implement layoffs regardless of the impact.

At least this move by Tengda is in line with the tonality of capital.

.........

Sunday, May 5.

Today is the anniversary of the fourth anniversary of the founding of Germination. According to the usual practice in previous years, Zhang Shuo did not hold any celebration activities. He just planned to invite a group of executives to simply gather at home.

By the way, let's get in touch.

In the previous public opinion turmoil, although Germination landed safely, it was too eye-catching after all.Especially after the announcement of the financial report, I don't know how many people's jealousy and concerns have been caused by the overt and covert.

If it weren't for the relationship with the second uncle, Zhang Shuo didn't know how much invisible pressure he would face.

At this time, of course, it is not appropriate to hold any high-profile celebrations.

Still have to hang on! ! !
The meeting place was chosen in the villa area of ​​Germination Industrial Park, that is, in the big villa where Zhang Shuo lives now. The president's office simply organized a reception, which was regarded as a celebration.

In addition to the executives from the headquarters, Du Qingqing and other presidents of the group's subsidiaries also came to the reception.

Are you kidding me?
No executive would be so stupid as to have this rare opportunity to get close to the big boss in private.

Even Sun Yang, the president of the Lime Group who just joined the Germinal System, rejected all social engagements, and hurried to Binhai City by plane on Sunday morning.

At the beginning of the banquet, Zhang Shuo raised his glass with a smile, "Let us welcome Mr. Sun to join us first!"

"Clap clap clap!"

Lu Kai, Lu Qi, Gu Mingzhang and other executives also laughed and applauded.

"In addition, let me introduce again."

Because it was a private gathering, it was used to bring personal feelings closer, and to encourage family members. Zhang Shuo specially called Gu Xiaoxi and introduced with a smile: "This is my fiancée, Gu Xiaoxi."

"????"

This time, Lu Kai and other executives were stunned, and then they reacted and applauded.

As for Gu Xiaoxi, high-level executives like Lu Kai and Lu Qi have actually heard about it, and they all know that she is the little girlfriend of the big boss Zhang Shuo.

Jiang Yue even dealt with Gu Xiaoxi a lot.

But a girlfriend and a fiancee are two completely different concepts.

Especially with Zhang Shuo's current status and worth, it is no exaggeration to say that if this news gets out, then Gu Xiaoxi will probably become the natural enemy of all Chinese girls.

Proper life winner!
Not far away, a trace of loneliness flashed in Du Qingqing's eyes, and there seemed to be a trace of relief.

Drank the wine in the glass.

After the simple opening remarks, the rest is very casual. Groups of three or four gather together to chat about industry gossip, international news, or household chores.

For example, Jiang Yue and Du Qingqing pulled Gu Xiaoxi to discuss maintenance.

Holding a wine glass, Lu Qi leaned over to toast Zhang Shuo, and said with a smile: "Chairman, congratulations, when are you going to hold a wedding? But you must give me an invitation card. Otherwise, I have the cheek to ask for a glass of wedding wine. "

Hearing this, Lu Kai and the others also pricked up their ears.

This is a big deal.

In a sense, it can even be said to be a budding event.

"It's National Day."

Seeing the eager eyes of the executives, Zhang Shuo knew that it was not so easy to pass, but he still solemnly emphasized, "We have all planned, and the wedding will be kept simple, and there will be no fuss."

"Understand!"

Lu Qi and the others are smart people, so they naturally understood, and then changed the subject, "Chairman, do you still remember Qi Yu, the former art director of Jade Bird Interactive Entertainment?"

"Why don't you remember?"

Qi Yu and Zhang Shuo still have some impressions.

When he first acquired Jade Bird Interactive Entertainment, Operations Director Liu Xiaohui and Art Director Qi Yu could basically be regarded as right-hand men, and they all made great contributions to the early success of Jade Bird Interactive Entertainment.

so much so to say.

Later, Zhang Shuo originally arranged for Qi Yu to go to the capital to preside over the Fire Phoenix studio. After Qi Yu refused due to family reasons, he still arranged for him to be the art director.

after that.

Jade Bird Huyu moved to the mountain city as a whole, but Qi Yu regretted resigning from Jade Bird Huyu due to family reasons, and was recruited by Tengda by accident and was reused again.

"Hey, this time the Tenda Interactive Entertainment business group has laid off employees, and Qi Yu is also among them." Lu Qi said.

"As expected."

Zhang Shuo was not surprised.

At the beginning, Tengda poached Qi Yu away and promised him a high position. He was not interested in Qi Yu's ability. More importantly, he wanted to use Qi Yu to dig out some secrets of the success of Jade Bird Interactive Entertainment.

But Jade Bird Interactive Entertainment doesn't actually have any secrets, the only secret is Zhang Shuo who cheated.

Today, the world has changed, and Tengda's game business has not improved, but the sun has set, and Qi Yu, as an airborne person, will naturally be included in the first batch of purge list by Yu Yu.

It's not just Qi Yu.

In the layoff plan of the Tengda Interactive Entertainment business group, the planners and artists that Tengda painstakingly poached from Jade Bird Interactive Entertainment at the beginning are basically in the layoff sequence.

It can be described as tit for tat.

"Hey, I heard from Mr. Cao that Qi Yu submitted his resume to Jade Bird Interactive Entertainment. Chairman, how do you deal with this matter?" Originally, this kind of matter didn't need to involve Zhang Shuo.

Just because Qi Yu is too special.

"Follow the normal process, do whatever you want, and don't ask for my opinion."

Zhang Shuo looked calm.

He has already made an exception for Qi Yu once before, so there is no reason to say, let's think about the old love again.

What's more, in today's Jade Bird Interactive Entertainment, Qi Yu's position has long been lost. Even if Qi Yu is willing to put aside family factors this time and go to a mountain city, it is impossible.

"Understood!"

Lu Qi also understood, which naturally meant to refuse.
