Chapter 508 Why Does Mr. Pei Use a Sledgehammer to Kill Chickens? (Seeking a Monthly Ticket)
Obviously, Qiu Hong was very resentful about his failure experience, and he was able to maintain a calm attitude at the beginning, but soon, his tone gradually changed from stating the facts to complaining.
Pei Qian could hear Qiu Hong's angry feeling.
As a game producer with successful projects, Qiu Hong's game design ability is definitely no problem.
Of course, his game design ability specifically refers to the design ability of domestic krypton gold games, and basically does not have other types of game design abilities.
But the problem is that Qiu Hong has never thought about making other types of games. His goal has always been very clear, which is to seriously make krypton gold online games and make money.
Obviously, his failure to start a business has nothing to do with his design ability. It can only be said that he has not been a good boss.
The "project management" issue that Qiu Hong repeatedly emphasized is the most critical issue for his entrepreneurial failure. On this point, he has a lot to say.
Qiu Hong also shared with "Ma Yang" a series of measures he took to strengthen project management.
For example, employees are forced to clock in and out of get off work, they arrive early and leave late every day to supervise employees, and they decide to distribute 10% of the game profits to employees as bonuses, etc.
These measures have indeed improved the company's situation and improved its efficiency, but it still cannot save the bad luck of failure.
Pei Qian felt a little pained when he heard it.
It does sound like a losing factor.
However, it seems useless to me...
My employees are already a group of screaming strugglers. I deliberately decoupled project bonuses from project profits and linked them to word of mouth, just to let them stop thinking about making money.
If bonuses are given to employees according to the profits of the game, wouldn't it explode on the spot?
The key point is that Qiu Hong said that the reason for the failure was that the employees were lazy.
The problem Pei Qian struggled with was that he had tried every means to encourage his employees to be lazy, but the employees just didn't!
What's the matter?
Although I know the correct answer, there are no feasible ideas and steps to solve the problem at all!
The more Qiu Hong talked, the more emotional he became, and the more he talked, the more excited he became, Pei Qian was too embarrassed to interrupt him.
Finally, probably tired of talking, Qiu Hong stopped to take a sip of coffee.
Pei Qian tentatively said, "Then may I take the liberty to ask, do you know what kind of regulations may cause employees to be lazy and the project progress to get out of control?"
Qiu Hong was stunned: "Ah? Isn't it natural to be lazy? If you don't do anything, they will naturally be lazy."
Pei Qian: "..."
No, it doesn't match my experience.
I really never cared about it for a while, and I only spent two or three hours a day in the office, but my game project was produced on schedule, right?
Pei Qian asked again: "Then, if I let all employees not clock in at all, have enough snacks and drinks, overtime is strictly prohibited, project bonuses have nothing to do with project profits, and never ask about the development progress of the project...But the game is still produced as scheduled Completed and earned, is there such a possibility?"
The expression on Qiu Hong's face was very wonderful, it was an expression called "what are you kidding?"
"Impossible!"
"Mr. Ma, if you want to daydream, I suggest that you still have the daydream of winning the lottery. The possibility of realizing it is relatively higher."
As soon as Pei Qian clapped his hands, he felt that he had met a bosom friend: "Yes, I think so too! It should be absolutely impossible!"
"But as far as I know, our company's game department seems to... do this."
Qiu Hong didn't answer immediately, but shook his head slightly and took a sip of coffee.
Then, he said with some bitterness in his voice: "Mr. Ma, that's just the appearance you see."
"That shows that the project management ability of the leaders of Tenda's game department has reached perfection, and it has surpassed the level that you can understand, and has achieved a return to nature."
"This kind of top project management ability is not something everyone can learn."
"It's like in some martial arts novels, the protagonist says that there are moves to win if there is no move, but if you forget all the moves, you will be beaten black and blue in no time."
"Mr. Ma, listen to my advice and forget about the Tenda game department. You can't learn this kind of ability."
"Of course, I'm not targeting you, and I can't learn it. Most people in this world can't learn it."
"A business genius like Mr. Pei is rare. The experience of such a person cannot be used as a reference."
Pei Qian: "..."
Forget about the Tenda game division?
No, I'm just trying to solve the game department's problems, how can you persuade me to give up? !
What else is there to return to the basics, what is the perfection, what are you talking about!
Pei Qian was speechless, what about sharing failure experience?
Why did you become a whip corpse again!
Qiu Hong looked at his watch: "Ah, it's time."
"Mr. Ma, I am very happy chatting with you. I haven't talked so freely with anyone for a long time. The depression in my chest has been swept away!"
Pei Qian: "..."
Is the pain in your chest gone?
But the distress in my chest didn't seem to get any better at all, instead it got worse...
Pei Qian asked: "So, next time you come here, you will talk about new elements of failure, right?"
Qiu Hong nodded: "Of course, I vaguely feel that Mr. Ma seems to be able to become a confidant with me. We all have a certain characteristic."
"What is the quality..."
"It seems that Kong has an ambition, but can't display it; Kong has a goal, but no one cooperates."
"President Ma, don't worry, we will definitely overcome the difficulties!"
"In short, I must know everything and say everything! Let's make progress together!"
Have a goal, but no one to cooperate?
You are so right!
Pei Qian thought about it silently. Although he and Qiu Hong have different goals, they are both trying to break free from the quagmire of failure and move forward towards a better tomorrow!
From this point of view, it seems that they can really become confidants?
Pei Qian couldn't help being moved, and tightly held Qiu Hong's outstretched hand: "Okay, let's work together!"
...

Tuesday, May 3.
Ollu Technology.
Just after the holiday, the employees of Outu Technology went to work on the first day, and they quickly entered the working state and started working intensively.
Chang You walked through the office area and entered his office, his eyes swept casually, taking a panoramic view of the employees' status.
"Could it be that the influence of Tengda's spirit is really so obvious?"
Chang You was a little puzzled.
He could feel a subtle change in Outu Technology.
It has been half a year since Outu Technology was formally established in November last year.
The key employees including Chang You are all from Hongcheng Technology. President Pei has never intervened in the company's daily affairs, and Director Lin, who came by air, has never directed the company's management.
Therefore, the working method of Outu Technology at the beginning of its establishment is completely consistent with that of Hongcheng Technology.
But now, people are still these people, but everyone's working style seems to be constantly changing to Tengda's working style.
One of the most notable manifestations is that everyone's working hours have been shortened, but the workload has not changed.
This means that the overall work efficiency has been improved!
Chang You still remembers that when he was at Hongcheng Technology, when he walked past the office area of the employees, he could always see that someone was fishing.
Of course, he would not point it out. After all, at that time, he felt that it was impossible for a person to maintain an efficient working state all the time, and it was natural for people to fish occasionally.
Now, however, employees seem to be doing their jobs efficiently, with very little fishing left!
The two states can be distinguished at a glance.
Take today as an example, if you are in Hongcheng Technology, everyone must sort out this week's work plan in the morning, answer the emails accumulated over the weekend, and then play with the mobile phone a little bit, and the morning will pass.
But now, it only takes more than half an hour for everyone to complete the work of sorting out work plans and replying to emails. The rest of the time is devoted to work, and each is more anxious than the other.
The most important thing is that Mr. Pei seldom comes here, and he never asks everyone to learn the spirit of Tengda?
So how does this subtle influence penetrate in and achieve the effect of "moisturizing things silently"?
The more Chang You thought about it, the more he felt that Boss Pei had a way of project management!
In the past, Changyou always had to check attendance, set goals, and press questions from time to time.
Now there is no need for it at all, the whole company is like a finger, pointing and hitting, everyone cooperates very tacitly.
With such a set of brilliant project management methods, Chang You feels that he is simply too comfortable. He does not need to waste energy arguing with employees, but can concentrate on thinking about the company's next business development direction.
"If you have time, you must ask Mr. Pei, a master of management, how he achieves this effect of 'moisturizing things in silence'. Does he have his own philosophy on project management?"
After completing the daily brain supplement for Mr. Pei, Chang You continued with this week's work.
Today, he is going to solve a puzzle left by Mr. Pei.
When Mr. Pei assigned tasks to OTTO Technology, he proposed future plans: don’t make new mobile phones, extend the time to about 10 months, set up a software laboratory, make some useful APPs, and improve it For the mobile phone system, optimize the image algorithm.
Chang You has already interpreted this point.
After serious reflection, he felt that Boss Pei's strategy was very correct!
The OTTO E1 phone is a high-end phone that costs a lot, but it's also a phone that's full of flaws.
If a new phone is developed immediately, what will those customers who have already bought the E1 mobile phone think?
I treat this phone as a treasure, but you treat me like a leek?
OTTO's pricing strategy is never to lower prices, but if new phones are released too frequently, where will the customers of old phones be placed?
Although the old-for-new service will be provided, this frequent release of new phones will inevitably dilute the brand value that the phone has finally created.
Therefore, Mr. Pei has to spend a year polishing the software, including the operating system, imaging algorithms, various commonly used apps, etc., which has at least three meanings.
Fulfill commitments to consumers;
Extend the release cycle of new mobile phones to one year to ensure that more and more advanced mature technologies can be used at that time, so that the next mobile phone will have more gimmicks, and at the same time better preserve the value of E1 mobile phones;
Invest a lot of time in software research and development, increase the added value of mobile phones, make up for shortcomings, and make consumers feel that they are worth the money.
After explaining the deep meaning of Mr. Pei's next-stage policy, Chang You immediately made a decision to spend a huge amount of money to set up an imaging laboratory, which is specially used to adjust the mobile phone lens, optimize the imaging algorithm, and make efforts in photography and software!
But not two days after deciphering Mr. Pei's intentions, Mr. Pei's new instructions arrived again.
This time, Chang You was confused.
Mr. Pei actually asked OTTO Technology to develop an app for gym registration?
The functional requirements of this APP are very simple, and it was proposed by a person named Guo Licheng. After logging in to the APP, customers can view their fitness data, make appointments for fitness time, etc., and that's all.
Chang You is very puzzled, such a simple function, as for OTTO technology to do it?
Our software team is responsible for the development of more complex apps, just such a broken app for gym registration, just find a team to do it, why did Mr. Pei give it to us by name?
Moreover, this app is not at all close to the general direction determined by Mr. Pei before, is it?
The strangest thing is that Mr. Pei specifically emphasized not to pre-install this software on the phone.
why?
Although Chang You arranged for someone to do it as soon as he received this request, but after so many days, he still couldn't understand the deep meaning of it.
If you are a person who has no pursuit, you must honestly complete the functions required by the fitness software and you will be done.
But after the success of the OTTO E1 mobile phone, Chang You is very clear that the task assigned by Mr. Pei himself, no matter how simple it seems, definitely has another meaning.
Otherwise, why did Boss Pei explain it himself?
