Chapter 423 Clouds move in all directions
"The morale of the team has been dispersed, and it's hard to lead it~"

"What's the matter? Are there still people under you who dare to force the emperor to abdicate?"

"That's not the case. In previous years, the ratio of people asking for leave before and after the holidays was 64:19. But this year, it's :. Everyone asked for leave after the holidays, and the reasons for the leave were varied and different.

Some said they didn’t get tickets after the holiday and needed to take three days off. I just received a call for a temporary leave. A tough guy said he couldn’t buy a ticket and rode back home, but he encountered a road closure halfway and also asked to take three days off.

"If I remember correctly, the entrance exam for the Ivy Academy is three days, right?"

"It's going to rain, and my mother is going to get married, what can I do~"

"Why don't you go?"

"You think I don't want to go? I've read the Qingteng Encyclopedia. When I got to the management position, I had meetings every day, weekly discussions, and monthly performance reports. I couldn't keep up with the concepts and technologies. I was just good at managing people. If I were 10 years younger, no! If I were 5 years younger, I would still give it a try."

"Our financial industry is still good. As long as we have good relationships and stand in the right line, it doesn't matter whether we have technology or not."

"No more talking, let's drink~"

100分、100分、100分、100分.99分!
The man looked at the computer screen. These were his Qingteng Encyclopedia simulation scores for the past month. He had taken ten simulation tests, all with full marks. 100 points was only the limit for Qingteng Encyclopedia, but not his limit.

But in the final online pre-test, he was deducted 1 point. He couldn't believe this result and even contacted the customer service of Qingteng Academy. The explanation given by the other party was that he was deducted 1 point due to ambiguity in the description of a detail concept.

The two discussed this issue for a long time.

In the end, he accepted the 99 points and the explanation given by the other party.

At the same time, I have a very good impression of Bi'an Qingtengyuan. As a technical customer service, although his depth is slightly inferior to his, he can still be called professional within the scope of Qingteng Encyclopedia, which is not easy.

His name is Dai Wenyuan, born in 83. He received his bachelor's and master's degrees from Shanghai Jiao Tong University and his doctorate from the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology. He has been a child of other people's families since he was young and is considered a top student by his classmates.

While studying at Shanghai Jiao Tong University, he led a team of two other people to win the ACM (International Collegiate Programming Contest) world championship and three Asian championships. Winning the championship was not enough for him, he also served as an ACM coach to guide his students to win the Asian championship many times.

After graduation, he joined Baidu in 09 and led the development of Baidu's core Phoenix Nest system.

In 11, he was awarded the title of "Best Baidu Person";
In 12, the Phoenix Nest technical team he was in charge of won the "Baidu's Highest Award" and was awarded a million-dollar bonus;

In 13, just after the New Year, he wanted to change jobs.

It is not a salary issue nor a career development issue. The reason for job hopping is very simple, so simple that perhaps other people would not think it is a big deal.

Parking spaces are already tight in Baidu's campus. Ordinary employees may not be able to find an available parking space even after circling the parking lot several times. Some employees can only park their cars on the side of the road and consider getting a ticket as paying the parking fee.

It was in this context that a few years ago, when he parked his car one day, he discovered that the company's director of administration was occupying five parking spaces. He could not stand this bureaucratic style and subsequently launched a protest on the intranet. It was a big fuss at the time, and the other party was fine, but he became the target of a talk.

If Phoenix Nest was at its peak in 12, Dai Wenyuan believed that no one would dare to take it lightly. Unfortunately, only a year has passed and Phoenix Nest has already become a big company, and some people can no longer hide their desire to take advantage of it.

In addition, the recent vote-rigging scandal has further strengthened Dai Wenyuan's idea of ​​seeking other opportunities. He originally thought that this company would become his ideal country in pursuit of the true meaning of technology. In fact, the overall atmosphere of the technical team is quite good. They discover problems, analyze problems, solve problems, review and summarize to prevent them from happening again.

However, many female managers appeared out of nowhere in other departments. They did not focus on their work at work. They could argue for a week about trivial matters. Many things did not seem to have been demonstrated and evaluated in detail and carefully. They just executed them based on their instincts. As a result, the efficiency was much lower than before, not to mention all kinds of messy and bloody palace fighting dramas.

Oh, they did do some real work, like opening a lot of yoga studios in the company.
Now even Phoenix Nest has gradually deviated from its original purpose and has been polluted.
A few days ago, the answer to the Zhihu hot list that was about reverse vote-rigging was written by him anonymously.

Because some things are just wrong and they are wrong, and if he doesn't like it he will speak out. If he tries to keep silent inside, he will stir up trouble outside.

In fact, with his qualifications, he could have joined Bi'an through another way. There were many senior technical experts from Baidu in Bi'an who had a close relationship with him. It would not be a problem for him to go through a special approval process to enter Bi'an, but he disdained to do so.

The most important thing is that Qingteng College is about to start school, and I found a more interesting assessment process in the Qingteng College's admission brochure.

Qingteng Academy has set up two assessment routes for different groups to join the other side.

The first one is Qingteng Road: It is designed for the general public. After passing the entrance assessment for the corresponding position, you will study for 3 to 6 months. The learning period is determined by the monthly assessment results. Finally, you will pass the graduation examination, be assigned a position and grade, and successfully join the other side.

The second one is the road to success: it is designed for senior IT practitioners or talented geniuses. Candidates who pass the entrance examination for the corresponding position and are in the top 3% of the examination scores will automatically trigger the mechanism of rapid advancement. The mechanism is divided into ten levels with increasing difficulty. Each level corresponds to the job grade system of the Other Shore Group from low to high, from the lowest level of specialists and engineers to the highest level of scientists.

As the job level rises, the salary and benefits also rise, ranging from hundreds of thousands to millions of yuan per year.

If you are good enough, you don't need to move up one level at a time, but can choose to skip levels based on your last assessment results.
The rules are clear, novel and rigorous, and it is obvious that the hospital has put a lot of effort into them.

As expected, Bi'an started out as a game company, and they actually used the tower climbing mechanism here. It must be said that this actually aroused Dai Wenyuan's fighting spirit.

Just like when he participated in the ACM competition during his student days, he rarely had this desire to compete with the heroes of the world. He wanted to see how good this Qingteng Academy, which had been boasting for more than half a year, was. He wondered if he could make it to the top with his own strength.
Go to the other side and take a look at the scenery there. Could it be the other side in your heart?

Beijing, late at night, New Oriental headquarters.

A remote video conference is going on here.

On the screen, Boss Yu was standing in the sun wearing an obviously expensive windbreaker and holding a snow pole. He looked refreshed, but it was unclear whether he was climbing a snowy mountain or skiing.

While on vacation, Boss Yu was concerned about the employees working overtime. Looking at the New Oriental executive team, he grinned and asked with concern,
"In two days, the entrance exam for the Ivy League College will be held. This is related to the reputation of our New Oriental Ivy League class. Xiangdong, how are you preparing?"

"Boss, don't worry, everything is ready. We plan to have the teachers and students go into battle together and get good results, which will serve as an advertisement for subsequent enrollment."

"Yeah, that's good. I trust you to do the job. Do you have confidence?"

"Have!"

"Okay, I'll come back and celebrate with you guys!"

The cheering ended and the video was disconnected.

The smile on President Chen Xiangdong's face disappeared, and he looked at everyone, "Everyone has seen the boss's expectations, so I won't say more. Do you have any questions now?"

The participants expressed their opinions.

"Today I went to investigate and found that there were many recruitment sites on both sides of the street in front of Qingtengyuan."

"I think this is great. Even if students fail to get into Qingtengyuan and are accepted by other companies, they can still become our excellent student cases." "Not only that, many hotels and hostels in front of Qingtengyuan are fully booked. Many people have gathered around before the event even started. The only problem is that the streets of Qingtengyuan are a bit narrow."

"Beiqijia was originally a town in Changping. How big a place could it be? But now that Qingtengyuan, the golden phoenix, has been attracted, I guess the town government must be secretly happy."

"The statistics of the Qingteng Academy pre-test have just been released. This time, we have 2.2 students taking the pre-test, 7 of whom have obtained the pre-test qualification, and 2 have passed the pre-test. The pass rate is only 9%."

"so little?"

"Even after careful training by our teachers, the admission rate is less than 10%. It is conceivable that the admission rate of those in society will be even lower, and it is estimated that 3% is good."

Chen Xiangdong asked, "The Ivy Academy will open in three days. How are the teachers and students here?"

Someone replied, "The boss is wise. Before the New Year, we can organize a Spring Festival training camp for young people. While increasing the pass rate, we can also collect extra training fees. We can eat well, dress warmly, sleep well, and we don't have to worry about not being able to buy tickets during the Spring Festival travel rush."

Another person gloated, "I heard that some other candidates passed the preliminary exams, but ended up not having tickets to enter Beijing. It was useless to take the exams, and they are clamoring for a refund."

"What about those candidates here who didn't take the exam?"

"Well, there are some people clamoring for a refund, which is affecting the status of other candidates."

Chen Xiangdong's face darkened. "Others passed the exam, but these people still have the nerve to complain. We have the same teachers and the same environment. Isn't it because they didn't work hard enough?"

He briefly expressed his feelings, thought for a while, and said, "Well, let's separate these two groups of people and prevent them from coming into contact.

Well. First of all, a refund is impossible. The original contract clearly stated that if you pass the preliminary exam, you will be considered to have completed the course. If you fail, you can wait for the next exam of Qingteng College in half a year. This is not a one-time deal. We are doing a long-term business.

How about this, we can make a new course plan. For those students who have not passed the exam, if they want to continue training and take the next Qingteng Academy exam, although the living expenses remain the same, the tuition fee can be 50% off. The next 50% discount will be 50% off, and so on, until they pass. If you don’t want to miss it, then goodbye. If you want to make a fuss, then we’ll handle it in a businesslike manner!”

"Roger that!"

Someone suggested, "Mr. Chen, I think we can provide a guaranteed pass package?"

"Guaranteed pass package?" Chen Xiangdong was a little confused when he heard this word.

"Anyway, the pre-test on the other side is an online test, and there is no surveillance camera. Who knows who is sitting in front of the computer? Let's find a teacher to take the test for us and guarantee that we will pass!

This package has several advantages. For students, if they pass the Qingteng Academy pre-test, their resume will be enhanced, making it easier to find other jobs.

For us, through this package, we can also generate extra income.

It’s just that there are few teachers and many students now, so this package is a bit of a waste of teachers.”

Chen Xiangdong understood and fell into deep thought. He knew very well that this kind of deception could only work for a while, not forever. Eventually, the truth would be exposed offline. Mr. Nan Guo could no longer get away with it.

Unless New Oriental and the other side join forces, there is no doubt that the other side will protect its reputation and will not leave.
Even so, he did not say anything final. "This matter is not urgent. Let me think about it."

Chen Xiangdong, who wanted to adjourn the meeting, asked as usual, "Any other questions?"

Then he noticed a person in the corner who was hesitant to speak, "Xiao Jiang, do you have any questions?"

"No, no." Xiao Jiang was called and waved his hands repeatedly.

Xiao Jiang, whose full name is Jiang Bo, is an English teacher who is well-loved by students and has great prestige among the students. He is also the only teacher representative in this meeting and of course the one with the lowest presence. He asked this question just to express his concern, not to ask him to really ask anything.

Fortunately, the other party is also a sensible person.

“Well, let me emphasize one last point. New Oriental is a long-established listed education group.

I think besides the purpose of teaching and educating people, making money is also a major motivation for everyone. No one can resist money.

If the Ivy League class is a big hit and makes us famous and renowned, I will take credit for it. You heard what the boss said just now.

I have the confidence and the courage to make New Oriental better and better!

Okay, let’s adjourn the meeting and go about our business!”

The attendees packed up their things and left one after another. Xiao Jiang secretly sighed in his heart. He had a problem just now. That is, "What if our teacher passes the enrollment test of Qingteng Academy and the fake play becomes a wedding dress for Bi'an?"

This is some information he learned from occasional conversations with teachers from the Qingteng Class after dinner. This situation is not impossible.

One company only makes big promises, while the other company eats big bites. Anyone who is not stupid knows how to choose. There is no comparison at all.

I wonder if the bosses realize this, or if they realize it they don’t care?

I don't know. Why should I feel uncomfortable as a nobody? Wouldn't it be better to end the meeting early and go home?

Of course Jiang Bo didn’t say that the main reason was heartbreak.

Teachers are still working overtime (teaching) during the Chinese New Year, and are still in meetings late at night. No one even gets overtime pay, all they get is compensatory leave that is never approved. As for the three times statutory overtime pay, that is just wishful thinking.

The students are still working overtime (for training) during the Spring Festival, and they need to pay extra for their living expenses and training fees.

As for the boss being on vacation.
Similar scenes also occurred in other training institutions such as Sunac China Education, Dana, Source Code Era, and Dark Horse Programmer. The only difference between them and New Oriental was that these students who failed the exam were clamoring for a refund, and for a time, these institutions were in chaos online and offline during the Chinese New Year.

However, Peking University Jade Bird kept to itself. When several other institutions were setting up Ivy League training classes with great fanfare, Peking University Jade Bird thought that their behavior was ugly and was unwilling to be associated with them. After all, Jade Bird was riding on the reputation of Peking University.

As a result, within less than a month, seeing that these companies were making a lot of money through Qingteng training classes, with additional revenue of hundreds of millions or even billions, they were unwilling to give up and quickly contacted Bi'an to obtain the authorization of Qingteng Encyclopedia, but they still maintained an attitude and wanted to sign an exclusive contract. In the end, they were rejected by Chen Tong.

This so-called Ivy League training class is obviously a golden egg that can continuously lay golden eggs, but it can only watch, scratching its head and regretting its decision.

Now we can only watch this big drama about to begin
Since the Spring Festival, anyone who has anything to do with IT, whether they are newcomers from other industries, fresh graduates from computer science departments, students from IT training institutions, white-collar workers in IT-related industries, senior practitioners, or corporate executives, has been invited to join the event.
Countless candidates who passed the Qingteng College preliminary test and planned to take the offline entrance examination gathered in Beijing.

Waiting for the opening of Ivy League College on the other side.
