Chapter 1306 Great Joy
The meeting room on the fourth floor of Netflix was full of excitement. Judging from the results on the big screen, it can be announced now that YouTube, which has been waiting for a long time and finally launched, has undoubtedly achieved success.
"Congratulations," Feng Yiping couldn't help the joy on his face, clapped his hands and stood up, happily shaking hands with several people standing beside him, "Thank you, thank you for your hard work, and thank you for your patience,"
Ma Ling deliberately stood on the other side of the table, because she was far away, so she could look at Feng Yiping unscrupulously and enthusiastically without being misunderstood.
At this time, she also clapped her hands vigorously. She could guess that this project would be successful, but she didn't expect it to be so successful so quickly.
You know, this is the first project she participated in, and she played a core role in this project.
The tens of thousands of videos on the Internet were all made by her, or by mobilizing all the people who could be mobilized.
Then they had to be reviewed and selected one by one, and they had to be edited appropriately. Some of them had to be accompanied by one or two sentences to add the finishing touch...
Although the technical difficulty is not as high as that of the team making websites and developing players, in terms of workload alone, their content team has the most workload.
Before, they were actually a little worried. Would the videos we made and selected be attractive to netizens?
To attract netizens, it is nothing more than that they have a deep impression after watching the video.
There are many things that can impress people. They have roughly determined three main directions: make people laugh; make people cry; make people think deeply.
It is not easy to make people laugh with a short video, otherwise everyone would be a comedian.
It is even more difficult to make people cry with a short video, otherwise there would not be only one Aunt Qiong Yao in China.
It is even more difficult to make people think deeply with a short video. Otherwise, wouldn’t thinkers be too cheap?
When the website was launched, their content team was actually the most nervous, because after such a long wait, the work of the technical department has been really impeccable. The framework is very solid, modern, and the curtain has been opened. The key to success depends on whether the programs they arrange are exciting.
And now the results show that the videos they carefully produced are quite successful overall, and at least they are the main reason why YouTube has achieved such success so far.
Those clicks and comments are the best affirmation of her team's work.
If it weren't for wanting to see Feng Yiping's demeanor at the company's executive meeting, Ma Ling would have wanted to stay with her team at this time.
But Feng Yiping really couldn't praise her.
He knew that his ability to conceal was not high enough. If he praised Ma Ling in front of so many people, it would inevitably make people see some clues.
But he didn't praise, but there were people who praised, "Congratulations to our content team," Randolph said with a smile, "Ma Ling, you and your team are the biggest contributors,"
"Thank you," Ma Ling said generously.
If it were in China, this would have to be a few humble words, saying that everyone's work is important, we are just doing our part, and we will definitely work harder in the future, but this is not the case in American companies.
In American companies, other departments are usually mentioned only when there is a problem. It is their fault, not ours.
Everyone is obviously accustomed to such things. Even if the heads of other departments feel a little sour, they can only applaud.
There is no way around it. It's like in a factory, the department responsible for product production is the most important and basic department, but the most outstanding department is usually the sales department. What can you do?
"It seems that my preparation is not redundant," Randolph made a phone call. After a while, Susan pushed a small cart into the office with two bottles of champagne on it.
"It was originally prepared to celebrate the beginning of Netflix's new journey, but Feng's speech last time was too successful and the atmosphere was too warm, so it just came in handy today,"
On the big screen, the relevant numbers are still soaring, "Thank you," "Thank you for your hard work," Feng Yiping held the champagne glass and walked around the conference room. This time, he couldn't avoid Ma Ling anyway.
"Thank you for your hard work!" Feng Yiping touched her and said as businesslike as possible, "Congratulations to you at the same time."
"Thank you," Ma Ling said with her eyebrows lowered, as if she was a little shy and didn't dare to look at him.
People who saw this scene didn't care. There were so many female employees in the company, and many of them reacted like this when they really met Feng Yiping face to face.
There was nothing we could do. Who told us that our boss was young, handsome and charming?
Only Randolph's secretary Susan saw this scene and stood aside and wanted to shout, "Are you blind? Can't you see that they have something wrong?"
It should be said that this is really not easy to see.
Even Zheng Jiayi didn't see anything, and she finally had the opportunity to say a few words to Feng Yiping, "Boss, good luck in the Year of the Monkey!"
"This is really a good start!" she said.
Only the two of them knew that today was the first day of the Chinese New Year.
"Thank you, you have worked hard too," Feng Yiping smiled and clinked glasses with her, "In the future, you can directly announce relevant news on Facebook, and you don't have to hold press conferences frequently,"
"That's it?" Zheng Jiayi looked at him unhappily.
"What's wrong?"
"What's wrong? I was just greeting you for the New Year, okay? You won't pretend not to understand, right? Where's the red envelope?"
"Please, you asked me for a red envelope, I seem to remember that there is someone who is one year older than me,"
"Stop," Zheng Jiayi stopped him, "Mr. Jin is right, the richer you are, the more stingy you are,"
"Of course, I accumulated my current wealth by being stingy,"
If you want to talk happily and speculatively, those who have a common cultural background have an advantage.
Feng Yiping saw that Ma Ling seemed to have glanced at this side without any expression.
"Is there something I can know?"
"You say,"
"Next, there will be no major measures in the United States,"
"Not yet," Feng Yiping said.
"Then I think, if the company thinks I am capable of doing the current job, can I be transferred back to China?"
"Why?" Feng Yiping was a little surprised.
Those who came with Zheng Jiayi and others, including Wu Xinyang, were all in high spirits at this time, thinking about turning their visas into green cards as soon as possible.
"Do you miss home too much?"
"No, on the contrary, I'm worried that if I stay here any longer, I won't be able to bear to leave," Zheng Jiayi said to Feng Yiping.
…………
In the evening, Feng Yiping received another call from Page, "Feng, I really shouldn't have agreed to your request," which meant a little annoyance.
"Why do I feel that you can't hide your happiness in your words?" Feng Yiping smiled.
Facts have proved that the American people are not as shown in some movies and TV dramas, and they don't have too high a pursuit of money. On the contrary, Americans and Chinese have the same pursuit of money.
Otherwise, the video of Page and Brin playing volleyball on the Caribbean beach would never have achieved the current results.
As of 6 pm, the video ranked third among the ten most popular videos on the first day of YouTube's launch with more than 45 views.
And the upward trend is still gratifying.
According to later standards, from today on, the two of them will definitely be two Internet celebrities.
Why do so many people watch this video?
Are they handsome? Of course, they are handsome, but they are not as good as Leonardo.
Do they have good figures? Of course, they are good, but they are not as good as Dwayne Johnson.
Is their video funny? It is not funny, nor does it make people cry, and it is not thought-provoking.
So in the end, there is only one reason: they are the co-founders of Google, and they are about to become the world's top billionaires.
The latest statistics show that the main force of YouTube registration is young people, and 57% of them are women.
It can be said with certainty that these two Internet celebrities were promoted by those young and materialistic girls.
"Brin and I are very angry. We agree that you are using us to attract popularity to your new website, so you need to give us reasonable compensation,"
But the reason why they agreed to Feng Yiping to publish that video is to attract popularity for themselves and Google, right?
Now is the critical moment of IPO, other actions cannot be taken, and interviews are expressly prohibited. Uploading a video like this can promote Google very well, and the difficult SEC can't find any faults, so why not do it?
"Compensation is actually very simple. According to last night's standards, treat us to two more meals, no, three times will be enough,"
