Chapter 406 Personnel Appointment
Being famous is different.

With Li Yan's beauty, figure and achievements, how can girls not be moved by her?

The key is that he is still young.

Although many people overlook how young he is.

But this does not stop some bolder girls from coming to propose.

It is not an isolated case that someone comes to an interview with the intention of confessing their love.

If you give Li Yan a critical hit while he still has little emotional experience, you might be able to win him over.

An interview is a rare face-to-face opportunity, so if you don’t seize the opportunity now, when will you?

The world belongs to the brave!

Li Yan was feeling a bit helpless, as these people did seem to have some real talent if they were just doing it casually, but if they were to be called serious interviews, there were so many options that it was overwhelming.

Fortunately, they all pay more attention to emotions, and are not like that "Miss Tong" who talks about superficial things right away.

However, there are still some people who try to show their superficial strengths. After all, wearing such tight clothes in the middle of winter...you can't say that you can withstand the cold, right?
What made Li Yan speechless the most was that few of these people knew that he was still a minor.

When they find out, they all say “I can wait”.

It's really a bit narcissistic, it sounds as if Mr. Li is begging you.

What's more embarrassing is that among those who have expressed their love, there are some quite scarce talents, either from different industries or with extremely high cost performance. Li Yan can't refuse to give her a job just because they like her, right?

After agreeing to join the company, he was so excited that he was spinning in circles, feeling that his words "I can wait" had been fulfilled.

But he was defeated by Li Yan's words "I am also waiting for someone".

This gossip spread quickly, causing some people to burst into tears - I believe it, it’s true!

However, there are too many magical little gossips about Li Yan, some of which are as outrageous as they can be.

For example, there were rumors that he was already thirty years old and had taken the elixir of immortality; rumors that he had actually practiced some ancient martial arts and was the best in modern times; rumors that he was particularly good at pleasing rich women and so he got his first pot of gold and then profited from it...

There is all sorts of nonsense, and relying on the fact that Li Yan doesn't pay much attention to these folk legends, he wrote it in a very bold way.

They always say "According to Li Yan's close confidants", "According to relevant sources", "Li Yan said it in person", etc.

Therefore, this kind of love gossip is not enough to read. People who don’t know Li Yan’s situation well may think that he already has three thousand beauties in his harem.

But when heard by someone who knows the situation, it is a completely different story.

For example, the classmate of the person involved, Wei Yunzhi.

"This can't be me, right?"

The beautiful girl suffered from three sleepless nights for this, and tried to determine who Li Yan was talking about by picking flower petals, counting sheep and counting stars.

"It's me, not me. It's me, not me..."

Li Yan has been very busy these days. She has to arrange the division of labor for follow-up work, figure out who the management will appoint to take the position, and personally participate in the recruitment of employees.

However, as the number of people in the company gradually increased to more than 400 people, I also felt a sense of pleasure like starting a giant ship.

Afterwards he was too lazy to manage everything. Everything was running as it should be. He was only responsible for steering the wheel. The day would come when he would wear a suit to work like CEO Wen and people would nod and greet him with "Hello, CEO Li" along the way.

It feels so good. It feels so fucking good.

At this time, letting Li Yan go on stage and recite "I Love Going to Work" must be sincere and heartfelt.

It still takes a while for employees to join the company. The period before the New Year should have been the off-season for recruitment - companies don't want employees to take annual leave as soon as they join the company, and people who want to change jobs or find a job are also preparing to take a break for the New Year, but Future Technology is still special.

Li Yan needs to catch up with the project progress, so he will not be stuck in a window period of more than a month. He even prepared New Year gift packages for all new employees, striving to enhance the employees' sense of belonging in the shortest time possible.

The gift package is very sincere and is divided into different packages for everyone to choose from. They are all carefully selected by Xiao Li, which makes Li Yan very happy.

What’s even more exciting is that I spent more than one million on a shopping spree, but the balance didn’t change much.

In comparison, he has already had tens of millions of cash flow. He has been producing songs and novels continuously. As Li Yan's influence increases, sales have not plummeted due to the passing of the novelty period, but have continued to rise.

With these two alone, Li Yan has accumulated a fortune of more than 20 to 30 million yuan - and he even holds the copyright.

Li Yan bought 2000 sets of gifts at a price of 750 yuan per gift, including wine, clothes, and small appliance vouchers. He spent 150 million yuan, which was an astronomical figure in his previous life.

Fang Lincheng can buy a nice house in the most central area.

As a result, Li Yan's personal account balance changed from 26847615.8 yuan to 25331667.2 yuan.

Li Yan even felt that the quota of 2000 was too low.

However, the company has no revenue after all and is supported by investment. He pays out of his own pocket to give this gift to employees who have not made any contribution, and treats them equally. He should still be considered a "good boss", right?

Of course, this amount of money is just a drop in the bucket compared to the salary investment. To put it bluntly, gifts are just extras, and salary is the real treatment.

Early in the morning of January 1, Li Yan gathered a small group of people and held a meeting in his office.

It is also worth talking about Li Yan’s office.

When the company was preparing to expand, Wang Zi said that Li Yan should move to the largest main building in the park that was about to be rented. There was more space there and the work flow could be rearranged.

As a result, Li Yan rejected it on the spot because he found moving tiring.

"I don't need to inspect anyone's work. There aren't many things that the company needs me to make decisions on. I will focus on meetings to solve them. Now this building is still the main R&D center, and the management team mainly works here."

Wang Zi obeyed Li Yan's decision unconditionally, so she went to implement it without saying anything.

As the implementation went on, Li Yan's office became what you see today.

One wall was opened up, so in addition to Li Yan's private rest area and office area, the office also includes a gym, a kitchen (Li Yan is looking for a special chef she likes to learn how to cook), and a conference room...

But everyone quickly accepted and adapted to it. As the big boss, he could do whatever he wanted. Li Yan's needs were all serious, and except for the fact that the kitchen was a bit unsustainable, everything was normal.

At least it's better than Wu Lansheng who moved the garden into the office, right?
If you want to see the big boss, you have to cross the winding bridge over the water and pass by the pavilion with burning incense...

Sun Miao wanted to complain, but when he saw the people attending the meeting, his mind suddenly became clear: Zhou Yang, Li Guangde, Wang Zi, Wen Xin, Liu Liwei, Cao Haibin, Shang Jie, Luo Fei, Bai Shuyun, and himself.

This staff composition is all core group!

Sun Miao also saw excitement in the eyes of others. Everyone had the same idea. At this critical juncture, it should be a meeting to divide the feudal system!
"I called everyone here today to arrange some work."

It must be the case! Sun Miao's hands were shaking a little, and he shouted in his heart that it was right to join early.

"With this round of financing and the successful development of the Hetu system, it's time for the Jiaolong phone to be ready." Li Yan's aura was not as sharp as before, but rather more friendly. "As everyone knows, we have been recruiting people during this period. Wang Zi and Wen Xin are very busy, but they have managed things in an orderly manner, allowing Future Technology to attract a large number of talents."

Everyone nodded, and Wen Xin even blushed.

"At present, the number of employees recruited by Future Technology has reached 436, and it will continue to increase in the future, especially with the addition of some small teams that Liwei has communicated with before. By then, we will be a big family with more than 700 employees."

This number was beyond the expectations of everyone present, especially Zhou Yang and Li Guangde. They had never had any serious contact with Li Yan, so they were not yet accustomed to the "beyond imagination" experience.

"Big companies have their own management standards. It's different from the past when I assigned tasks and everyone just worked hard." Li Yan said slowly, "Management is a science. The necessary rules and regulations must be in place, and the necessary management must also be arranged."

Here it comes! Sun Miao gritted his teeth and controlled his expression. He wanted to leave a big company like Win just for today!

"I'll make the arrangements first. Wang Zi, you will be the housekeeping manager as always, but you don't have to handle everything yourself. I will assign you a 20-member housekeeping management team to be responsible for the company's overall internal affairs. Please let me know if you need any additional staff."

Wang Zi nodded and did not ask about the financial management. Things that Li Yan did not mention would naturally be his own responsibility.

"I will set up some departments later. You can call me director or manager as you like." Li Yan said with a smile, "Wen Xin, I will be in charge of personnel work. I just want to tell you that you don't need to hire a secretary for me. I have a relatively flat communication system with everyone. You can always contact me if necessary."

He really can't have a secretary. It's not that he has to avoid suspicion with a beautiful secretary, but Li Yan has a system. When he is studying the system or even overclocking it, he must ensure his personal privacy. A secretary is completely a burden.

Besides, with his ability, the secretary would be unable to help even if he wanted to.

Several younger people breathed a sigh of relief. They didn’t yet know the significance of what Li Yan meant by “necessary”.

"Sun Miao, head of the project department; Shang Jie, head of the operation and maintenance department; Bai Shuyun, head of the R&D department; Zhou Yang, head of the hardware development department, and head of product one; Li Guangde, head of the design department; Cao Haibin, head of product one, and head of the business department; Liu Liwei, head of product two, and management of the business department; Luo Fei, head of the technology department, and management of the R&D department."

After this arrangement, everyone had expressions of both "as expected" and "what's going on", and the changes in facial expressions were quite interesting.

The general direction was within expectations, with the startup employees basically dividing up the work based on their respective strengths, but the idea of ​​"part-time job" made them a little confused.

Those with related interests could figure out Li Yan's intention. Zhou Yang was good at hardware development, which was an important follow-up task. Letting him be solely responsible for the hardware would easily make Li Yan lose his say in hardware development and would also waste the ability of this big man.

After Zhou Yang's brilliant appearance, Cao Haibin was actually not that useful. The job he was best at happened to be Li Yan's job - coordinating all aspects.

His greatest role and value has always been to be a window for Li Yan to understand the entire process of making mobile phones.

But now it has a new use. Cao Haibin is in charge of products and business, and he is a person who cares very much about his presence. It is basically impossible for Zhou Yang to have the final say in the hardware field.

The two of them formed a restraining relationship with each other, and with Zhou Yang as a big Buddha around, Cao Haibin couldn't make any waves.

At the same time, the Ministry of Commerce asked Liu Liwei, who had been traveling abroad for a whole year, to take on the management role and be responsible for software products, and Cao Haibin's voice was further diluted.

Finally, the financial power is still in Li Yan's hands...

At least in the eyes of the three of them, Li Yan should have considered this.

There are two points that confuse everyone. The first is that everyone is used to Li Yan's previous division of labor, which was down to the smallest detail. It's a bit difficult to adapt to the sudden change to this departmental division of labor that you can't understand at first glance.

For example, the difference between the project department and product departments one and two, the difference between the technical department and the R&D department... no one immediately understood what they were responsible for.

The second is that Li Yan finally chose the startup team as the management team. Although this is normal in itself, it seems a little special for Li Yan.

There is nothing to say about Wang Zi, Wen Xin, Sun Miao, Zhou Yang, Li Guangde, Bai Shuyun, because they are the backbone of the team. Just like Wen Xin and Bai Shuyun, they have demonstrated their ability to take on important responsibilities in their short working period.

But others...at least based on the information we know, there are many who do better than them.

Is Li Yan a sentimental person after all?

Moreover, employees No. 2-5 did not show up to receive some empty titles, which actually earned them a lot of favor from the management.

"I will first give you a direction on what each of you will be responsible for, and then assign you some employees based on my interviews. I will directly appoint two people to the management of each department. If you need to appoint or replace someone on your own, please explain the reason to Wen Xin and then submit it to me."

The boss's hand is still very long...

However, Sun Miao and Zhou Yang, two people who came from large companies, expressed their understanding that the expansion of future technology would come too fast and too hastily. If Li Yan let go and handed it over to the various persons in charge to push forward, internal strife would be sooner or later.

"Your recent work is to give me a plan based on the division of labor I gave you and the products we are going to make. Write down the specific content of your department's work and the manpower needed."

Zhou Yang and Li Guangde felt very fresh and looked at each other.

Others are used to this way of working, which is highly autonomous but also extremely stressful. When working under Li Yan, ability always comes first.

Finally, the meeting ended in a peaceful atmosphere. Generally speaking, this wave of personnel appointments was implemented smoothly. For management staff, Li Yan took into account ability and old friendships, and at the same time, there were some checks and balances in it, which showed the level that a boss of a large company should have, and it could make them feel more at ease.

They didn't understand Li Yan's real thoughts.

Li Yan was not actually nostalgic for the old times, but only the old friends knew his terrifying abilities, which made him sincerely convinced.

The management cost of a large-scale company is very high. If management is appointed only based on their "ability", it is easy for factional forces to emerge, especially when Li Yan cannot directly radiate his influence to grassroots employees.

When he thought about the possible lip service, false imperial decrees, the establishment of new factions, internal struggles... Li Yan felt exhausted.

Therefore, the first factor he considers when choosing management is "serving the management."

Take Cao Haibin for example. His title of "madman" is a thing of the past in Li Yan's eyes.

As long as the first-level management follows Li Yan's lead, the management of the company will become very simple.

Anyway, no matter what your ability is, it makes no difference in front of Li Yan.

What if I do a better job than Shang Jie? Being obedient saves time and is more efficient.

What, you said that such an arrangement would prevent Li Yan from hearing both sides of the story?
It is indeed a problem. The company has become a one-man show.

But as long as you have strong enough ability, what's the problem?
When working on the kernel and system, who could Li Yan listen to?
As long as you are strong enough, the direction you point to will be the light.
