Rewrite the Technological Landscape

Chapter 4 Meeting Ali for the First Time

Although the cost of making games is relatively small, there is still a cost, so Meng Qian still needs a more direct money-making plan. The strategy he wants is to deliver some improvement suggestions to these current companies, including some suggestions on the technical and operational ends , and then see if any company can contact me and talk about related cooperation. After all, with Meng Qian's technical level and understanding of the development of future generations, it is not a big problem to help these fledgling Internet companies to improve.

It’s just that he doesn’t have much opportunity to directly contact these companies now. The Internet companies that started in this era are basically concentrated in Yanjing and Shenzhen. Let's talk about it in the past, after all, I am poor and white now, and I can't afford a ticket to go to Yanjing, and I may not be able to pass the hurdle of security when I arrive.

If the mobile phone is a seven-year plan, then the game is a one-year plan, and what he is doing now is the current real-time plan.

Trying to find some of these companies that can recognize their own strength, reach a certain level of technical cooperation or operational cooperation, and then earn a little fee is the most direct way for him to use his own advantages to earn money.

After all, now that I am penniless, it is too unreliable to start a business directly. Even if I want to make some simple systems to sell, I can't even afford a computer for typing codes.

Meng Qian carefully wrote down different improvement suggestions for different companies, and tried to write the content professionally, and then collected the relevant contact information of the target company on the Internet.

Now what can be found on the Internet are basically recruitment mailboxes and investment promotion mailboxes. It is impossible to find the mailbox of the person in charge of the company, or even the mailbox or other contact information of the person in charge of the technical sector.

But there was no other way. That night, Meng Qian sent out the first batch of emails.

In the following week, Meng Qian bought a lot of newspapers, and read the newspapers during class during the day. On the one hand, he learned about this era that was already very strange to him, and on the other hand, he also found more contact information for companies. At this time, online recruitment is not mainstream.

After class, I have been soaking in Internet cafes, continuing to search for target companies and their contact information from the Internet, while waiting for a reply to the email.

But a week later, Meng Qian began to realize the problem.

Because so far I have received a few replies, but all of them asked me to attach my resume.

But how to write this resume, Meng Qian couldn't help thinking about it. It is definitely not good to write a real resume. There is no bright spot. I can give myself some points.

At this time, I don't have any previous works, no previous qualifications, and I haven't even made a website.

Meng Qian had to reflect on his own strategy. He realized that he had overlooked a very important issue, that is, the rule that results come first in the workplace.

Enterprises spend money to hire people, what they want is that this person can generate value, not this person's imagination.

Just like the classic workplace status in later generations, companies require applicants to have work experience, and the applicants look confused. You all need people with work experience. Where should I go to get work experience?

In addition, China's Internet companies in the 1990s were basically established under the influence of the development and thinking of the United States, and some companies were even founded in the United States.

At this time, there are very few excellent technical and operational talents in Huaxia itself, and most of them are people who have returned from studying abroad to take the lead in technology and operations.

Therefore, many companies at this time are in the initial stage of exploration. To put it bluntly, many companies that have developed in later generations are not sure what they want to do at the moment.

So I don't have any experience and I want to give advice to others. It's like a soldier telling a general in a war, you let me command, and I can win the game. Even if this person is really capable, how many How dare the general do this bole?

After figuring this out, Meng Qian felt that he had to change his strategy. Simply sending advice emails to companies was like looking for a needle in a haystack. He had been waiting for Bole, and he didn't know when to go. He had to increase his leverage.

As for how to increase this chip?

Meng Qian habitually touched his chin and fell into deep thought. From 8:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m., when Meng Qian went to renew his subscription, he suddenly had a thought when he looked up and saw the word "Internet Cafe" in red.

Meng Qian immediately grasped this flashing thought of his own, and the corners of his mouth raised slightly unconsciously.

When he returned to the computer, he scanned the people around him and started looking for injection tools

However, Meng Qian found that the injection tools commonly used in later generations are not available now, but this matter will naturally not affect his rhythm. He started to look for loopholes by searching the company's online content.

If there are people in related fields behind Meng Qian at this time, he will know what he is doing.

He is, black site.

Of course, Meng Qian is not going to destroy other people's websites and will not harm any companies, he just wants to leave a note for them in this way.

To put it another way, hack into someone's backstage and leave a few words for them.

One of the reasons why you suddenly chose this method is that it is a method that is easy to attract attention. Through this method, you directly put the company's problems in front of them, and directly tell the company that your technology has so many problems. There are naturally more people who are interested.

Moreover, this method of leaving notes is also a favorite of many technical people in later generations, and even formed a rule in the circle. Being able to leave notes is a way of showing ability. Meng Qian himself received it. Several such "attacks".

The second reason is that Meng Qian used to be a member of the Honker Alliance. In an era when black Internet cafes were everywhere and 360 didn’t even exist, this matter was easy for Meng Qian.

As for whether someone will call the police, Meng Qian is not too worried. Although the hacker itself has a negative identity, it is because the hacker is using this method to harm the interests of others. Meng Qian just wants to leave a note for these companies. The first reaction of any enterprise with a bit of courage will not be Calling the police, this is also the premise that leaving a note can become a non-mainstream method in the circle of later generations but has a certain popularity.

Besides, even if there is no such unwritten "rule" in this era, anyway, Meng Qian did not harm anything to the other party. If someone really calls the police, he will not have too much problem. If he is caught, he will accept the punishment honestly That's it.

But Meng Qian himself thinks this is very interesting, because Meng Qian has always been a very noisy person in his heart. Although outsiders think he is very mature, in fact, it is a mask that he has to wear in order to adapt to this world. , Meng Qian loves to play and make trouble, which is also a very important internal reason why he can come up with this strategy. Personality, see if there is something that suits you.

This night, when Meng Qian successfully entered the backstage of several companies, he couldn't help but sigh that there are too many bugs in this era, and there are no good protection methods.

No wonder the theft of QQ accounts was so rampant in the first few years.

Over the course of one night, Meng Qian picked a few companies he was most interested in and left notes on their backstage. Of course, this time, the content of the notes he left was no longer about how to optimize their interface or platform, nor about how to optimize their operations. Suggestions, but directly put their BUG and problems in front of them, let them feel it for themselves.

After staying up all night, Meng Qian went back to the dormitory and had a good sleep. The next day, after lunch, he went to the Internet cafe again. Meng Qian noticed a reply letter in the mailbox.

Glancing at the sender, it was Alibaba.

To be honest, Meng Qian was a little surprised, because as far as the current situation of Internet companies is concerned, Ali is a company with relatively low technology requirements. Now Ali is a sales company, and their main business is China’s supply chain. , To buy traffic for domestic customers abroad to advertise, you only need to feed back the customer's order. Now Ali basically has nothing to do with technology companies.

Maybe it's because it's relatively close in Hangzhou.

Meng Qian guessed and emailed Ali back, and made an appointment to meet directly at the company in the afternoon.

At 3:50 in the afternoon, Meng Qian came to an apartment building according to the address. After finding the exact address on the email, as soon as Meng Qian entered the door, he saw a group of people frantically making phone calls.

I have always heard how terrible Ali’s first sales of Tiejun are. Now that I have the opportunity to see it with my own eyes, Meng Qian still feels very shocked. In later generations, he has seen the sales status of many companies. It is not as crazy as before. Not often.

The phone held by the salesperson is like their weapon, full of murderous intent.

"Hello, who are you looking for?" Just as Meng Qian was focusing on the sales, a female voice drew his attention back.

Meng Qian turned his head and saw an inexplicably familiar person. After careful recollection, he quickly realized that this was Peng Lei, one of Ali's eighteen arhats. "Hello, I am Meng."

Meng is the name Meng Qian left in the email.

Hearing what Meng Qian said, Peng Lei showed a complex expression that was both expected and unexpected, but she quickly sorted out her emotions, "Hello, my name is Peng Lei, if it is convenient, I will come to Would you like to chat in the office?"

"OK."

Meng Qian followed behind Peng Lei, Peng Lei seemed to slow down on purpose, and kept questioning Meng Qian's personal information on the way to the office.

Meng Qian didn't hide it, he told the other party about his school and age.

Perhaps it was Meng Qian's frankness that gave Peng Lei some trust. When she arrived at the office, she could see that she was no longer as guarded against herself as she was at the beginning.

After entering the office, Meng Qian recognized Boss Ma sitting in the main seat at a glance, and there was a man sitting next to Boss Ma, but Meng Qian did not recognize him.

Meng Qian has seen all the photos of the Eighteen Arhats, which is why he can recognize Peng Lei, but he carefully looked at the people around Boss Ma for a long time, and he couldn't think of any one of the Eighteen Arhats.

"President Ma, this is Mr. Meng."

Hearing this, Ma Yun got up, greeted Meng Qian enthusiastically, and then introduced the people around him to Meng Qian, "This is Li Qi."

Li Qi?

Meng Qian felt that the name was very familiar. He repeatedly searched in his memory while shaking hands with Li Qi, and finally remembered it when he was about to take his seat.

Li Qi, former COO of Alibaba. Meng Qian continued to recall the information about Li Qi that he had seen.

He remembered that Li Qi was with Ma Yun at the earliest, and he left for a while, and then he seemed to come back around 2000, and Li Qi can be regarded as a relatively legendary figure. Many people on the Internet said that Ali's success had nothing to do with him It has a lot to do with it.

And if Meng Qian remembers correctly, Li Qi was born in technology, and he did a very important thing when he first returned to Ali.

After sitting down, Meng Qian casually looked at Li Qi, as if he understood why he was here today, and why Ali wanted to see him.

"Li Qi is my good brother, and he will come to our company after a while to be responsible for technology." Ma Yun took the initiative to say, but obviously lowered Li Qi's status. Li Qi came to Ali to be responsible for more than just technology. One piece, "I, a layman, couldn't understand the series of system problems that Mr. Meng found out for us last night, so I called Li Qi immediately, and after reading it, he replied to me with two words, talent.

So I would venture to ask, what does Mr. Meng want? "

"I want money." Meng Qian answered very directly. He really didn't need to beat around the bush, and his directness also made Boss Ma and Li Qi feel relaxed. After all, no matter what era they are in, the problem that money can solve is The easiest question.

"How much money does Mr. Meng want? How do you want to cooperate? Let's hear it."

"I'm a very honest person, more work pays more. Of course, how much money I want depends on how much value I can bring to you. If I just help you solve some bugs, optimize website construction, or consolidate database protection, I think it's okay. It’s worth tens of thousands of dollars, but I think my ability can help you solve more important, even Ali’s core technical problems.”

"Oh?" Ma Yun and Li Qi looked at each other, then looked at Meng Qian curiously, "What technology does Mr. Meng think Ali needs most now?"

Meng Qian looked at the two and said slowly, "CRM system."

As soon as the words fell, Meng Qian saw the immediate change in the expressions of the two of them. At this moment, he knew that he had guessed right.
