Chapter 438 Crouching Dragon and Phoenix
Liu Kun's blood pressure suddenly rose and he asked angrily: "Who is it?"
Hong Fei thought for a while, "It's He Jinrui."
"He Jinrui." Liu Kun frowned, "Is he the only one?"
"There are probably two or three more." Hong Fei thought for a moment, feeling a little unsure, "That's all I know."
"I'll go talk to him." Liu Kun looked a little ugly.
The game has been launched, the hard days have been over, and it’s time to divide the money, but someone in the R&D team actually wants to leave.
Isn't this a slap in Liu Kun's face?
When Mr. Qin found out, he thought he couldn't control the team and acted unfairly.
What will other employees who don’t know the truth think?
Someone resigned just as bonuses were about to be paid. Could it be that the company wanted to burn bridges and force people to leave without paying bonuses?
If the people's hearts are broken, what will they do next?
Don’t blame everyone for thinking too much, similar examples are not uncommon.
Liu Kun can't let this happen. An experienced, combative, and cohesive R&D team is the most valuable asset.
People's hearts are broken and it's difficult to lead the team, which will affect the next project.
The losses far exceed those bonuses.
Liu Kun immediately found He Jinrui and asked directly: "Are you dissatisfied with the bonus distribution plan?"
He Jinrui hesitated and said, "I'm not dissatisfied."
Liu Kun didn't believe it. He knew he wasn't telling the truth when he saw the other party's attitude. He said with a sullen face: "There is no one else here. Tell me the truth. If you have any opinions, just mention them. If they are reasonable, we will adopt them."
"Do you feel that your share of the bonus is less?"
He Jinrui was silent, his eyes wandering.
Liu Kun said with a cold face: "Since you think there is no problem with the bonus distribution, then distribute it according to this standard."
"Director Liu!" He Jinrui said immediately, "I do have opinions on the bonus distribution plan, but it is not because of me personally."
"It doesn't matter if I have less points personally. After all, I have learned a lot in the company, and these things have helped me a lot." He Jinrui said excitedly, "I am complaining for other brothers! I am not the only one who has a small bonus distribution plan. Of the money, there are many brothers who have suffered hardships and get the smallest share.”
"Mr. Qin said at the beginning that the more you work, the more points you will get. Now this bonus distribution plan completely deviates from Mr. Qin's instructions!"
"There are bad people among us!"
Liu Kun frowned and his expression became stern, "Who are you talking about directly?"
"This..." He Jinrui hesitated, with a look of embarrassment on his face.
"You can say it with confidence, I will report it directly to Mr. Qin." Liu Kun said seriously, "Once verified, we will deal with it fairly."
He Jinrui was silent for a moment, "Forget it, there's no point in saying this, the other party won't admit it anyway."
"Then why didn't you send anonymous emails before?" Liu Kun asked, "President Qin has come to the R&D base many times to teach you, and he also specifically emphasized this issue. The bonus distribution will be fair."< br>
"Justice does not mean fairness." He Jinrui retorted, "We are people who speak lightly, and we can't say anything if our credit is taken away. How can we still hang out in the team after we say it?"
"Well, if there are really the problems you mentioned, we will transfer the person and you can apply to other groups." Liu Kun looked at the other party and made a promise, "Our company will have many new projects in the future. You can go wherever you want." OK.”
"That's it." He Jinrui seemed to have made up his mind, "It's Liu Yubin who is the main instigator."
"Huh?!" Liu Kun frowned.
He suddenly realized that things were a bit tricky. Liu Yubin was his person.
The two have worked together since they were at Target Software, when Liu Yubin was the chief planner of "Qin Shang".
Later, I worked with him to create Pixel and developed the "Sword and Sword Sealing Demon Record" and "Sword and Sword OL" projects.
After Qin Shaoyan purchased Pixel, they collectively joined President Qin and worked together for him.
Originally, he wanted Liu Yubin to lead a project by himself, but the online game project here was in a special situation, so he was seconded to work on it.
Liu Yubin has always been diligent and brought this online game project to fruition.
I didn't expect this to happen now.
Liu Kun did not go to Mr. Qin directly, but called the art director Hong Fei over and asked directly: "What do you think of the chief designer Liu Yubin?"
"It's pretty good." Hong Fei looked surprised, "What's wrong with him?"
"Then what does he think of the planning team?" Liu Kun continued to ask.
"It's pretty good, he did a pretty good job." Hong Fei was a little puzzled, "Why do you ask this when he's so good?"
"Then do he have any conflicts or contradictions with He Jinrui?" Liu Kun asked.
"There is no contradiction." Hong Fei recalled, "I did criticize He Shijin a few times. As you know, this kind of situation is unavoidable at work. Just criticize anyone who makes mistakes, and I don't mean to specifically target anyone."< br>
Liu Kun asked Fan Xiaoqian about it and she said something similar, and there was no big problem.
So Liu Kun told Mr. Qin directly about the incident.
Qin Shaoyan didn't express anything after hearing this, and asked Liu Kun to call Liu Yubin over and asked directly: "What do you think of He Jinrui's usual performance?"
"It's okay, he is capable." Liu Yubin replied.
"Then do you think he has the ability to be the chief planner?" Qin Shaoyan suddenly asked, "I mean the ability to lead a project alone."
"No." Liu Yubin answered very simply this time, "He has the ability, but his work is too vain and too ambitious. He still needs two years of training to see if he has the ability yet."
Qin Shaoyan asked again, "Does he have any outstanding advantages?"
"He knows some numerical values, has been studying hard, and made a lot of numerical suggestions for the project." Liu Yubin thought for a while, "but the numerical planning was not adopted."
"What about numerical planning?" Qin Shaoyan was a little curious.
"The numerical planner felt that He Jinrui was just thinking about the problem and didn't even have a basis for the modification. When asked why he changed it like this, he said he felt it was better to change it like this." Liu Yubin replied.
Qin Shaoyan smiled and said, "How much is He Jinrui's salary?"
"Six thousand dollars."
"Hey, that's quite a lot." Qin Shaoyan was a little surprised.
"Because he knows some numerical values, I mentioned him as a system planner and wanted to try to train him." Liu Yubin sighed.
Six thousand yuan is indeed a lot. When Guo Weiwei joined Xishanju in 2004, Zou Tao, who was the studio manager of Xishanju at the time, thought he was a talented person who had returned from overseas and gave him a high salary of 4,500 yuan.
Qin Shaoyan sighed, "This is such a talent. I'm a little reluctant to let him go."
Liu Kun was stunned for a moment, "Mr. Qin, what did you say?"
"Nothing." Qin Shaoyan thought for a moment, "In this way, you can conduct an anonymous questionnaire to investigate everyone's thoughts on the distribution plan and their reactions to what He Jinrui said."
"We must conduct thorough research at the grassroots level, go from among the masses to the masses, and see what everyone says."
“We’ll wait until the questionnaire comes out.”
Liu Kun agreed. Although Liu Yubin felt that there was nothing wrong with him, he always felt a little uneasy and didn't know what the people below would think of him.
But the results were unexpected. As soon as the questionnaires were distributed, He Jinrui and several planners suddenly proposed to resign.
Liu Kun was a little confused. Didn't they feel that the distribution was unfair and they were being persecuted? They were investigating to find evidence. Why did you just resign?
And he was so determined to resign that he didn't even want the bonus.
You must know that although their bonus quota is not too large, it is still more than 200,000 yuan a year.
Liu Kun went to talk to them one by one, but they had already decided to leave and refused to say anything more. They only asked to go through the resignation procedures as soon as possible.
Several people left at once, and Liu Kun had no choice but to truthfully report the situation to Qin Shaoyan.
Qin Shaoyan looked a little strange when he heard this, and just said lightly, "Several people from Zhou Yuan's operations department have also left."
Liu Kun was stunned and asked subconsciously: "Is it also because of the bonus?"
"Absolutely." Qin Shaoyan said casually, "Maybe the bonus is just an inducement."
"In this case, you make arrangements and I will talk to these people in person."
"Isn't that necessary?" Liu Kun was shocked. What kind of person is Mr. Qin? How shameless are they for condescending themselves to talk to these grassroots employees?
"I'll take care of the rest. Mr. Qin, you should go deal with more important things."
"No." Qin Shaoyan said insistently, "I'd better get in touch with the grassroots employees more. I have to find out why they left their jobs and improve our work."
Liu Kun couldn't defeat Mr. Qin, so he called over those who were about to leave.
When they heard that Mr. Qin wanted to see them, these people became a little uncomfortable. Although they have also attended Mr. Qin's classes and learned a lot, the gap between them and Mr. Qin is really huge.
They are big bosses with a market value of several billion, but they are just wage earners with a monthly salary of several thousand.
What's more, they can also be regarded as students of Mr. Qin, and they have a master-student relationship.
If Mr. Qin personally intervenes to persuade them to stay, they will be embarrassed. It would be disrespectful to resign, and it would be even more embarrassing if they don't resign and stay.
As soon as Qin Shaoyan entered the conference room, these people stood up subconsciously and nervously said hello: "Hello, Mr. Qin."
"Don't be restrained, please sit down." Qin Shaoyan waved his hands with a smile, found a seat and sat down.
After watching everyone else sit down, Qin Shaoyan glanced around and said, "I've heard about the situation. Do you insist on resigning?"
There was silence in the conference room, and no one below spoke.
Only He Jinrui said: "I'm sorry, Mr. Qin, we have already decided to do a good job."
"No need to say sorry." Qin Shaoyan sighed, "I still felt it was a pity that we all met each other, so I called everyone over to try to save them."

"Well, let me give you a little salary increase. Do you want to think about it again?"
Everyone looked at each other, but no one spoke.
"It doesn't matter, everyone has his own ambitions." Qin Shaoyan felt a little regretful, "It's just that without all of you, the Warring States project will be very different."
Everyone was a little moved when they heard this. They didn't expect that they had such a high status in Mr. Qin's mind.
Listen, Mr. Qin used the term "crouching dragon and phoenix chick" to describe us.
"You are all the elites I trained. You should be energetic after you go out. Don't lose your status!" Qin Shaoyan took out a stack of paper and said, "I wrote a letter of recommendation for everyone. You can hand it in when you apply for other companies. , it will be easier for you to find a job.”
A man sitting in the corner suddenly stood up and said, "Mr. Qin, I don't want to leave."
"Well, okay, then you can go out first." Qin Shaoyan smiled.
Seeing the door of the conference room closing again, Qin Shaoyan looked around the venue again, "Is there anyone else who wants to leave?"
This time there was still silence.
Qin Shaoyan said seriously: "Since you have decided to leave, I have nothing to say to you, so I will give you another lesson."
When everyone heard this, they immediately became excited. Mr. Qin had a lot of work to do in class, and they didn't know what he would talk about next.
Qin Shaoyan pulled over a whiteboard and said, "What I'm going to talk about today is how to take the blame at work."
"Ah?!" Everyone suddenly looked at each other.
"Don't underestimate the blame-shifting thing, it's very technical." Qin Shaoyan said seriously, "You must know that online game research and development is a very complicated job, involving many factors, and you will inevitably encounter various problems during the work. At this time, you must learn to pass the blame, which is an important life-saving skill in the workplace.”
Yes, yes, what President Qin said is so right, we must learn this.
Work skills may be mediocre, but blame-shifting skills must be good.
As long as you dump it well, your own fault can become someone else's fault.
Qin Shaoyan talked eloquently, "As we all know, online game research and development is a team collaboration project, which not only involves the collaboration of planning, programming, art, and testing departments, but may also be interfered by bosses, investors, and later the operations department. Interference.”
“So everyone must keep in mind that obstacles in every department may cause big mistakes, and responsibilities must be clearly distinguished at all times.”
"Even if the project fails, we should keep in mind that the bugs in the program are too serious, the art quality is low, the operation is unfavorable, and the boss gives random instructions. In short, there is no problem with the planning."
The more He Jinrui listened, the brighter his eyes became, feeling that Mr. Qin was speaking from the bottom of his heart.
Mr. Qin is really my confidant. He cured his mental internal friction with just a few words.
I used to feel guilty for making mistakes, but now I think it was all someone else's fault. Why do I feel guilty?
After hearing Mr. Qin talk about some blame-shifting techniques, they regretted not bringing in a recorder. Mr. Qin was so precise in every word, how could he teach such a valuable lesson so early.
He Jinrui raised his hand and asked at the end: "Mr. Qin, if there are no problems with the program, art, and operation, what should I say if the results of the online game project are not satisfactory?"
"This is simpler, that is, the market is failing." Qin Shaoyan said lightly, "The market is always changing, and the previous gust of wind has passed."
The market is failing...
This is so wonderful!
If it succeeds, it’s all due to me. If it fails, it must be because the market is not good!
Qin Shaoyan looked at He Jinrui with a smile, "Are you He Jinrui? I heard that you also know numerical values?"
"I understand a little, I understand a little." He Jinrui said quickly, "It's just some insights."
"You are a talent. What a pity. I originally planned to train you to be the mastermind." Qin Shaoyan sighed with regret, "If you were asked to work on an online game project, what would you do?"
He Jinrui was stunned for a moment, his thoughts about resigning wavering, but he soon stabilized himself.
"If I make an online game project, I will make a reskinned version of "Warring States Online"." He Jinrui replied immediately.
"Why?" Qin Shaoyan continued to ask.
"It's simple, convenient and efficient. The market has proven the success of the Warring States model. It's less risky for me to replace the leather version directly, and it can also shorten the development time." He Jinrui said confidently.
"This is indeed a good plan." Qin Shaoyan suddenly asked, "Don't you make some changes? Don't you understand numerical values?"
"Of course I will make some changes." He Jinrui said quickly, "I will increase all damage, upgrade experience requirements and drops by thirty-three times."
Although Qin Shaoyan had seen strong winds and waves, he was stunned when he heard these words, "Why did you turn it up?"
"This number looks more comfortable. In other online games, a monster has 100 experience points, but we just have 330 points." He Jinrui looked confident.
Qin Shaoyan asked again, "What if the effect is not good?"
"Then adjust it back." He Jinrui said without hesitation, "This should be a very simple adjustment."
"Then why is it thirty-three times? And not something else?" Qin Shaoyan asked.
"Well, I feel that the multiple of thirty-three is quite appropriate." He Jinrui said with some guilt.
"Okay, okay." Qin Shaoyan patted He Jinrui's shoulder with great satisfaction, "It's really my sleeping dragon and phoenix chick. What a pity!"
"Why can't you think about leaving?"
He Jinrui did not dare to look directly into Qin Shaoyan's eyes and lowered his head.
Qin Shaoyan said seriously: "Did other companies poach you?"
He Jinrui's heart skipped a beat and he denied in a panic: "No, no."
"It doesn't matter if you do." Qin Shaoyan sighed, "It's normal for you to be poached if you are so good. It's unreasonable for no one to poach you. I don't blame you."
"You can leave with peace of mind, I will also help you get the non-compete agreement."
He Jinrui rarely showed a look of shame on his face, "I'm sorry, Mr. Qin."
"It's okay, it's okay." Qin Shaoyan patted his shoulder, "I wish you all smooth sailing and advancement in other companies! Cheers!"
"Which company poached you?" Qin Shaoyan suddenly asked again.
Someone next to me couldn't help but said: "It's Giant Network."
"Hey, it's Giant Network. I heard that Shi Yuzhu is quite generous. How much will he give you?" Qin Shaoyan was a little surprised.
"30% salary increase."
"Only 30%" Qin Shaoyan frowned, "It's just that little. Do you look down on me, Qin Shaoyan, and tell them they must double it, otherwise I won't let you go."
"This..." He Jinrui was very surprised, but hesitated, "Is this okay?"
"Of course!" Qin Shaoyan said seriously, "I think your salary of less than 10,000 yuan is not enough for your talent!"
"In this way, I will give you the title of chief planner, and you can talk to the Giants. If they don't let you lead the project, you won't leave."
Qin Shaoyan picked up a pen and re-wrote a recommendation letter on the spot, "Show it to them directly and send it away with a 30% salary increase. Isn't this bullying an honest person?"
He Jinrui's hands were shaking when he received the recommendation letter. Mr. Qin was so kind that he couldn't bear to leave.
However, the conditions offered by Giant are too tempting. Not only are there high bonuses but also option rewards. If the company goes public, he will become prosperous immediately.
I don’t know how much higher it is than being a small planner here.
You can't bury your talents here. Mr. Qin recognizes him, and he would be sorry if he didn't show off his skills.
