Grow up together

Chapter 314 Time flies (please subscribe! Please vote!)

Everyone in the conference room, you look at me, I look at you.

Su Yu stared at Xu Cheng for a few seconds, and there seemed to be no trace of joking on his face.

"Mr. Xu, are you serious?"

Xu Cheng asked, "Am I joking?"

Su Yu frowned, "Have you thought it through? Penguin will definitely accept Mr. Xu's plan, and although one of us is an industry pioneer and the other is a latecomer, Harbin Farm can indeed It is said to be the most popular social game."

This is not nonsense by Su Yu. Currently, Hapi Farm is the most popular among white-collar workers. The first thing many company employees do when they sit at their desks every day is to open Hapi Farm and steal some vegetables.

"But Mr. Xu, have you ever thought about this problem? To put it simply, our number of servers is simply not enough to serve the number of users who are pouring into the game every day.

Just in terms of the smoothness of the game, Penguin has already beaten us too much.

Moreover, Penguin has far more manpower and resources than we do. I have never thought that we can be more outstanding in future operations and updates. The reputation of the two channels will determine the flow of users. Penguin wants to win. A comeback game is too simple. "

Su Yu looked worried, and Xu Cheng nodded seriously.

"Brother Ma is really good at creating new twists on other people's things. I won't deny this."

Do you know you still play like this? !
Su Yu was about to be pissed to death.

In her plan, relying on the advantages of Hapi Farm, the user activity of Hapi.com has increased rapidly, and she can gradually marginalize similar competitors in QQ Space.

And this is how reality develops.

But how could Xu Cheng, who she regarded as smart enough, choose to make such a choice.

Several other people in the conference room felt the low-pressure atmosphere of this elder sister and did not dare to speak. They only lowered their heads and exchanged glances.

Xu Cheng took a sip of hot water, "I know we are far behind Penguin, but do we really have no advantage?"

"What advantage?"

Everyone in the conference room looked at him, and Xu Cheng cleared his throat.

"Our advantage is that Hapi.com will be useless without Hapi Farm, while QQ Space can still be QQ Space without Hapi Farm."

The conference room fell silent for a moment, and several people digested his words for a long time.

It was Cao Xuan who spoke in a daze.

"Mr. Xu, are you confused? Where is the advantage?"

"Why not?"

Xu Cheng asked him, "We who are barefoot are not afraid of those who wear shoes. Isn't this an advantage?"

The young man looked around and said calmly.

"Sister Su Yu, you said just now that Penguin is playing a comeback game. I don't think so. In this battle for users, we are the one that wants to come back. If Penguin loses Harbin Farm, it just means it has not completed a project. It is not necessarily We will put all our efforts into it, but what about us at Hapi.com?"

Qiao Yiming was stunned. Although he didn't quite understand, he still roughly understood the current situation.

"So we are burning the boat?"

"Not to that point."

Xu Cheng shook his head and handed the documents in his hand to several people.

"You all should take a look at this. I have already marked how the company's work will unfold in the future."

Several people in the conference room flipped through the documents one by one, and the contents above were concise and to the point——

[One strategy, two tactics. 】

[One strategy: compete for users. 】

[Two tactics: rapid product development to optimize user experience; innovation around features and high-frequency product iteration. 】

The file was finally passed to Su Yu. She frowned and looked at it for a long time before looking up at Xu Cheng.

The young man loosened his collar and continued speaking in a calm and powerful tone.

"Penguin, Brother Ma personally promised me that the money will arrive within ten days. The company's cash flow problem has been temporarily solved, but it is just drinking poison to quench thirst. I hope you all understand this, so next I ask Sister Su Yu You quickly organized an elite team, which you personally led."

"Elite team?"

"Yes, I will only give you 10 people for this team. These 10 people must have a complete functional set-up, including project managers, products, UE design, front-end development, back-end development, testing, and operation and maintenance, to complete the next Harbin Farm All operations and maintenance work.”

"Just these 10 people?"

"Yes, I require your team to use a one-week iterative development cycle, and complete multiple deliveries and releases in one iteration, at least twenty releases a week."

"20 times?"

There was a burst of exclamation in the conference room.

What is the concept of 20 times?

Previously, Harbin Farm had nearly 50 people responsible for the operation of the entire Harbin Farm. Under this situation, Harbin Farm would take a full month to complete a release.

And now, a team of 10 people.

The number of people has been reduced by five times, but the iteration release speed has to be accelerated by more than 80 times!

At this time, several core members of Qingzhou probably realized how high-frequency product iteration Xu Cheng meant.

"Mr. Xu, you better let me die."

"Destroy it, I suggest destruction."

"It can't be done, it can't be done at all."

There was a lot of wailing in the conference room.

Xu Cheng slapped the table, "If you can't do it, you'll get beaten. I haven't finished what I said. Why are you so excited?"

The conference room instantly became quiet.

Although he is young, Xu Cheng still has the aura of a boss on such occasions.

This is the benefit of a relaxed company atmosphere.

He is already young and has difficulty controlling these subordinates. It is better to relax the atmosphere and let everyone get along with each other more like friends. This casual atmosphere reduces the sense of distance brought by age and makes it easier for him to show off at the right time. Create an aura that intimidates employees.

Among the people in the conference room, Su Yu was the calmest one.

She twirled the documents in her hand and looked at Xu Cheng behind the desk curiously.

She was worried all night yesterday, and had even written her resignation report, thinking that if Xu Cheng had the attitude of quitting today, there would be no need for her to stay in Qingzhou.

However, before she was ready to resign, she still called her friend Yu Jiajia. After hearing her complaints on the phone, Yu Jiajia didn't seem too surprised and advised her to keep the resignation report first. , saying that this boy might bring some surprises to her.

At the time, she thought this statement was a bit ridiculous, but now...
From just now, Xu Cheng seemed to be fully prepared, which was far beyond her expectations.

Therefore, rather than the pressure brought by an elite team of 10 people, she is more looking forward to what new surprises Xu Cheng can bring her.

“What is the Internet fighting for?”

The young man looked experienced, "I don't say this to outsiders casually. If you hear it, you will earn it, right?" Several people looked at each other, and then Xu Cheng patted the table and revealed the answer.

"user experience."

"In the next period of time, I require Hapi Farm to launch new gameplay, new crops, and new props every week."

Xu Cheng looked around.

"At the same time, those features that have received poor feedback from users must be taken offline quickly. We must use the fastest time to maximize the user experience."

The few people below already have bitter faces.

"It's impossible, who can do this?"

"Then don't you have to work overtime until you die?"

"Western capitalists will cry when they hear this."

Only then did Su Yu finally speak, "Mr. Xu, do you have any ideas about improving the team's execution speed?"

She felt that since Xu Cheng made such an unreasonable request, he must have some plan.

"hey-hey."

Xu Cheng smiled sheepishly.

"I also learned from my dad and asked them to help us develop a set of extremely fast product development models."

Of course he made it himself, but if the level of this model was named after him, it would be too outrageous to say it. It would be more reasonable to use Xu Jianghe to cover it up.

He handed another document to Su Yu, and this time Su Yu looked at it very attentively.

It is difficult for a layman to understand, but she is very attentive when looking at it. The production level of this set of models is quite high, perfectly planning the management mode of Hapi Farm in a state of running at an extremely fast speed without chaos.

Not only does it break through the limitations of release and iteration, but based on status drive, various roles can also collaborate efficiently to complete product iteration goals.

There are still talented people in Jing'an.

Su Yu handed the document back to Xu Cheng. The others were also very sensible and did not dare to say that they wanted to read it too.

At this time, the boss can only show it to you, but you cannot ask for it.

"Comrades, comrades."

Xu Cheng patted the table with encouragement in his voice.

"I know that the penguin is a difficult opponent, but looking at it from another perspective, isn't it a touchstone for us in front of investors? We will use it to sacrifice the flag in the first battle. The penguin has already been killed. Tao. Hold the sun and moon in your hands and pick the stars. Suppress all enemies in the world and destroy Brother Ma."

The young man is still very good at confusing people. In just a few words, a group of science and engineering men felt their blood boiling all over.

So the conference room, which had been dead all morning, suddenly had the feeling of being mobilized for a sports meeting in a college. Every young man was very motivated. When he went out to talk about the content of the meeting, he didn't say anything else. If he asked, he would kill Brother Ma.

In September, QQ Space officially launched Hapi Farm on the Penguin channel.

A battle for users initiated by latecomers in the industry began.

Penguin still spent a lot of effort to promote the farm, and bought a lot of advertisements to show how to play Hapi Farm and how interesting it is to steal food from each other with friends.

The effect was very good. Student parties poured in instantly. Qingzhou also immediately responded with advertising. However, the advertising intensity was very small and the form was very simple. They only invited a certain male Hong Kong star to say a simple sentence. words, like a spam advertisement——

I am Zha Zhahui, and as brothers I go to Hapi.com to play Hapi Farm.

A simple advertising slogan is so simple that it is bad enough, smooth enough, magical enough, and deeply rooted in people's hearts.

The most important thing is that he told people who saw this advertisement that if they want to play Hapi Farm, just go to Hapi.com.

Coupled with Zha Zhahui's magical accent, although an advertising slogan did not buy much traffic, it caused netizens to imitate and spread the word of mouth. Hapi.com has an influx of a large number of users. The characteristics of this Many people’s IDs are called xx Zha Zhahui.

Penguin also has a very keen sense of smell. He was shocked to find that the advertisement he promoted was actually a wedding dress for someone else. He immediately made a countermeasure and changed the name of the Penguin channel. The Hapi Farm Penguin Server was officially named Penguin Farm.

Throughout the following autumn and winter, Qingzhou and Penguin fought fiercely. The most intuitive feeling is that every game detail and experience is constantly improving, and both sides are frantically competing for users.

Today there is a red land on the Penguin side, and tomorrow Hapi Farm will launch the red land plus one-click picking gameplay.

Penguin followed closely and launched holiday seeds, and Hapi Farm immediately launched bouquets, wishing trees, beehives, and attached pastures.

Players have also split into two camps. On major social platforms, they compete with each other for their superior game experience through different channels, and insultingly name each other "Hapi" and "Epi".

Most of the time, Hapi Farm is superior. After all, they are the earliest. Although Penguin Farm has also started, it still feels like a copycat.

It probably feels like one is a knife and the other is a masturbation.

Moreover, the functions of Hapi Farm are indeed richer. Sometimes the planners on Penguin want to go to Qingzhou to see if the imagination of this group of people has no limit or something.

Only Su Yu knew the truth. All the weird ideas were born from Xu Cheng's text messages, and then they were immediately designed and put online.

After applying Xu Cheng’s extremely fast product development model, Hapi Farm’s efficiency is now really high.

It’s so exaggerated that you might have just posted on the forum in the morning, “I planted 9 pomegranate seeds last night, but found one missing this morning. Who knows why? Depressing!”

After having a meal and going online again two hours later, the bug has been fixed.

Such speed is simply incredible in this era, and has even led to industry involution to a certain extent.

In the confrontation between Hapi.com and Penguin, the number of users increased explosively. By the first half of 2009, Qingzhou had added more than 1000 servers to Hapi Farm.

This is a quite incredible number, and even in the eyes of investors, this can be regarded as a pretty good record.

After all, the most troubling question for entrepreneurs in this era is, what will you do if Penguin copies you?
The boss of Hapi Farm seemed to have handed over an answer sheet for them.

The reputation of Hapi.com has grown with the rapid expansion of Hapi Farm, and Su Yu has reached the point where he has to be interviewed by the media every day.

However, the head of Hapi.com is very mysterious and has never appeared in any media.

Someone well-informed dug out the inextricable relationship between Hapi.com and Jing’an Communications Xu Jianghe.

However, at the press conference of Jing'an smartphone "Xiaoqing 2", when a reporter asked Xu Jianghe if he was the master behind Hapi.com, Xu Jianghe clearly denied the question.

Winter to spring.

There was a lot of speculation about the owner of Hapi.com, but Xu Cheng didn't care too much about this fame. He continued his studies steadily and rarely even went to the company. He only used the phone to complete some work for Su Yu. Layout and arrangement.

The most perfect management state in the workplace is no management.

Qingzhou is infinitely close to this state.

It was the leadership skills he had developed since junior high school that helped him, allowing him to deal with these things without expending too much energy.

Reading and studying cannot be put down for a moment.

Moreover, high school is already halfway through, and the short and intense senior year is about to come.

It’s time to prepare for college
