Chapter 220: Which Company’s HR Department Went Bankrupt?

"What!? No one was poached???"

Liu Fan, who was entrusted with an important task by Ding Bo, felt the first thing when he heard the news:

Impossible! Absolutely impossible!

It's not easy for a big company to poach people from a small company?

To be honest, isn't the ultimate dream of these programmers, operators, and designers to come to a big Internet company like them?

Net Depression Company can definitely be regarded as the last stop of their career.

Coming here basically means success and fame.

Going forward, you can go to Tencent, Alibaba, and ByteDance, but the treatment may not be much better.

"Net Depression has given you a lot of chips, right? You can't poach people? What do you do for a living?"

Several HRs curled their lips.

"Brother Fan, it's really not a problem of our ability. The main thing is that we can offer a price, and they don't look down on it at all. The annual salary is 100,000 more than ours. This... Even a god can't do it."

Liu Fan: "???"

"Why does Duoyu Tingshu give them so much money?"

After listening to the stories of multiple HRs, Liu Fan finally understood why this happened.

He was shocked afterwards.

"Duoyu company is crazy? These are ordinary employees, and he pays them 1/3 higher than the highest market price?"

"What is this Mr. Pu thinking? Is the capitalist having a change of heart?"

He remembered the place of Duoyu company that is comparable to the elite office area of ​​NetEase Cloud Music headquarters, and he understood it a little.

No wonder Mr. Pu smiled and looked indifferent when he heard that he was going to suppress Duoyu.

It seems that he was prepared!

"Okay, you guys go and do your work, I will ask Mr. Bo again."

Liu Fan knew that it was unlikely to raise salaries to poach people again. After all, NetEase Cloud Music must be fair, at least there can't be too much difference.

Other programmers are more than 20,000 a month, and it is definitely not appropriate to give a group of new people more than 30,000.

When the time comes, employees will have to raise their salaries one by one, and it will be a mess.

The salary issue cannot be concealed.

After he asked Mr. Bo for instructions, it was indeed impossible to raise salaries again.

Mr. Bo said with some disdain: "The overall quality of our company's people is much higher than theirs. Poaching their people is just a means to attack Duoyu. If we can't get them, forget it. Don't lose sight of the main point and directly launch our audiobook function online to suppress them casually."

This matter came to an end.

Liu Fan also felt that it was true.

If we don't poach their people, can Wangde not crush them?

I don't believe it.

The programmers of Wangde Cloud have started working overtime until late at night again recently.

The big boss asked them to add an audiobook function to Wangde Cloud Music in half a month.

Although it's a bit rushed, fortunately, based on the Wangde Cloud Music platform, this function is not troublesome to implement. The main problem is the page and interaction inside.

That is, working overtime, everyone is used to it.

And the product manager's biggest headache is where to get so many books?

The boss has an idea, and the people below have to run their legs off.

The boss said that Biduoyu audiobooks should be done well.

How does he know how to do audiobooks?

This is a new thing, and no one except Duoyu is doing it. He has no idea how to make audiobooks good and profitable.

After looking at the Duoyu audiobook app and listening to a clip of "Rural Rogue Miracle Doctor" which is the main recommendation of the website, the product manager was confused.

"Is there really anyone listening to this?"

"It's so tacky, but it's still the best seller?"

"And it doesn't hurt at all, which doesn't match the theme style of our NetEase Cloud Music!"

Unbelievable.

But the boss asked me to do it, so I must do it.

Since I want to imitate others, I must imitate the essence.

They copy the type of books that have a lot of people reading them.

Although I can't listen to this miraculous doctor, readers can definitely listen to it. The data is here, it can't be wrong!

Time is tight, there is no time to think, hurry up!

He hurriedly found someone to understand the copyright issues and buy books of the same type.

When choosing people to record, the product manager had an idea!

Their own music live broadcast has been tepid, and it can only be maintained by the platform subsidy, but some of the anchors have good voice conditions, so let them do the dubbing, isn't it just right?

For them, they can make extra money.

For NetEase Cloud Music, it saves a lot of money, and who knows if it will become popular in the future, it may be able to promote a few anchors.

Win-win!

They just do it, they only have half a month.

If they can't copy it, they will be prepared to face the anger of the big boss.

After a series of operations, the product manager feels that the software is good and should be able to be launched on time.

Duoyu Audiobook didn't realize that a behemoth had stared at the meat in their mouths and wanted to tear it off.

Oh no!

Not only eat the meat, but also eat them by the way.

Duoyu Audiobook has been online for three weeks, and the data has been rising without any publicity.

At present, the total number of registered users on the platform has exceeded 3.5 million.

The first batch of users have passed the 7-day free period and started to pay for reading.

The number of paying users has reached 200,000, far exceeding expectations!

Meng Xingkong analyzed that this is because the group problem they are facing is not a software for minors with the worst paying ability. Their brains are more active and they will not listen to audio readings with a slower rhythm.

This software is for fixed groups and fixed scenes.

Office workers' commuting, elderly people's entertainment, and various fragmented time that is not suitable for watching mobile phones.

Through user portrait analysis.

They concluded that 80% of the audience are over 25 years old and have extremely high paying ability.

Therefore, the payment rate remains very high.

As we all know, underage users are the main group that lowers the payment rate of various software. Because of their low paying ability and lack of independent economic conditions, Duoyu Audiobook Software has an inherent advantage in the user group.

Moreover.

Meng Xingkong received instructions from President Pu to withdraw the money that can only be earned in the future in advance to purchase more copyrighted works, find voice actors to speed up recording, and ensure that their audible library continues to grow.

Many books will be updated every day.

And Meng Xingkong also found that they actually don't need to buy the copyrights of those well-known works of Qidian, which is a bit wasteful.

One book costs 100,000 yuan.

But most of the readers of audiobooks are not readers of online articles, so their requirements are not so high.

It can be seen from the fact that the first best-selling book is still "Rural Rogue Divine Doctor".

These people are essentially no different from new media users.

However, Meng Xingkong and his team cannot record a bunch of articles about the King of Soldiers, the Son-in-law, and the God of War like new media channels, because many of the readers are elites with higher paying ability.

They may not have read online novels, but their reading materials cannot be all about these, they must have other hobbies.

Therefore, Duoyu Audiobook still needs a rich library to enrich it in order to analyze the interests of each reader.

There is too little data at present.

Meng Xingkong purchased a batch of books with an average subscription of 3,000 to 6,000 from Qidian at a cheaper price to fill the library.

The copyright price of each book is between 10,000 and 20,000.

For example, Brother Ji's book with an average subscription of more than 5,000 sold for 20,000.

Don't complain about the small amount!

These books were not originally within the copyright operation scope of Qidian, so it was good enough to be sold, not to mention that it was just selling the copyright of audio reading.

Before Duoyu Audiobook came out, they didn't even know that online articles had this copyright to sell!

How much is considered a lot?

What bicycle do you want!

Meng Xingkong saved money for the company and got a rich library to fill the software.

And these large numbers of books that sprang up like mushrooms after rain have greatly increased the stickiness of the first batch of paying users!

These people who might never read online novels in their lives have felt a magical world through an audiobook software.

There are books in every column here, such as the Dragon King of Medical God, Martial Arts Cultivation, Urban Emotions, Weird Suspense, Military Wars, Magic Fantasy.

Funny, scary, passionate, and thrilling to meet the various tastes of readers.

Meng Xingkong sighed: "It has to be President Pu! If we don't expand the library in time and wait until the money arrives next month to start adding new books, we may lose a large number of users, and such a good start will be ruined."

"With President Pu checking the company, it's hard for us to lose money!"

Chief Designer of Duoyu Audiobook App: "Queshi!"

At this time.

Pu was looking at a handful of resumes in the office.

Shocked!

"Assistant Qi, we haven't posted any job openings recently, have we?"

"No, Mr. Pu."

"Then why are there so many people looking for HR positions? Which company's HR department went bankrupt?"
