Chapter 746: Spin-off LinkedIn

…

"Give him this information!"

After Wendy nodded, she took the information from Guo Shouyun and handed it to Anderson Cooper.

"This Twitter business development plan, you can take it back and read it. Write a summary to me after reading it."

"Yes!"

As one of the most common social channels on the Internet in later generations, Guo Shouyun will not forget it. After facebook and youtube are on the right track, it's time to roll it out too.

"Separate the blog business and the forum business from LinkedIn, and set up an independent Twitter business unit, which has three business departments: Twitter, blog, and forum, and the head of the department is Anderson Cooper!"

Compared with the surprise that Anderson Cooper stepped from the head of the department to the core management of the company, John Belden, the head of the LinkedIn business unit, was not very happy. LinkedIn originally had eight core business departments, but now Wenku and Classroom have established a new "Online Education Division"; blogs and forums, coupled with the new Twitter business, have established a "Twitter Division".

Up to now, what remains on LinkedIn is professional networking, headhunting and intermediary, and email. Income and power have plummeted, and no one will be happy. But at this time of drastic changes within the company, the big boss obviously doesn't mind taking action on the company's internal personnel structure. In order to avoid losing this precious job, although he was dissatisfied, he did not dare to oppose the decision of the big boss.

Guo Shouyun saw John Belden's dissatisfaction, but now is not the time to comfort this old minister. The resignation of Tim George and others, although turbulent at the top of Ruby, also gave Guo Shouyun an opportunity to completely reform the company's management structure and personnel structure.

"In the future, the head of each business unit will also serve as the company's executive president, directly responsible for the administrative management of each business department, and join the company's executive committee. ... Since the independent subsidiary system has become a business unit system, finance and personnel will be handled by the head office's finance department and personnel department. Straight."

Chief financial officer Dunco Verne and chief human resources officer Kerry Dorothy had beams of joy on their faces. The power in their hands increased.

At this point, Guo Shouyun's reform of the company's personnel structure and management system has basically ended. The remaining option rewards will take time to complete step by step.

Subsequently, after the 2004 year-end meeting of Ruby Company and the analysis meeting of the 2005 development goals under his auspices, the interior of Ruby really began to return to normal step by step. Eric Schmidt did not live up to his expectations, even now outside the company because of the departure of Tim George and others, the leakage of LinkedIn customer information, coupled with the help of the dark, it looks precarious, but It is always developing in accordance with the established direction planned by Guo Shouyun.

The stability of Ruby Company finally gave Guo Shouyun enough time to clean up the outside.

"Boss, this is the news just received! Tim George joins Joyo.com as chairman and CEO."

He took over the document handed over by Wang Jue and looked at it, "Now he has finally achieved his goal, and he has the power."

The reasons for Tim George's resignation are not hard to guess. It is nothing more than that he is not willing to accept Guo Shouyun as a second-in-command. After getting along for more than five years, he asked himself that he had a clear understanding of the old subordinate's psychology. But even if he understood, he could not solve this almost unsolvable contradiction.

Because Tim George is not Steve Jobs, let alone Larry Page and Sergey Brin, Guo Shouyun completely delegated them to manage Apple and Google because history has proved that they have enough strength and talent to lead the company to become great. But Tim George is clearly not in that category.

Guo Shouyun couldn't give the leadership of Ruby Company to someone who was not absolutely sure of himself. And now, although Ruby has established its dominance in the field of Internet social networking, there is still a mobile Internet era behind it. In the period of drastic changes in the industry, once the pulse of the times is not allowed, then the huge companies will also be eliminated. He doesn't want Ruby to repeat Baidu's mistakes.

"Boss, I think we should sue Tim George and Christina. They signed a non-compete agreement with us." Wu Xiaojing said.

"It's useless. Yesterday, I received a call from Eric, and their liquidated damages had already been sent to the company's finance department." Guo Shouyun shook his head.

Originally, the liquidated damages were not high, with the support of so many consortia behind it. Ten to twenty million dollars is not a problem at all.

"Is there any other news?"

"It is rumored that Joyo.com is second only to our yspace and friendster in the social field. However, no more detailed news has come out yet."

"Does Tim George plan to make Joyo.com into another ruby?" Guo Shouyun smiled with interest.

"Boss, should we fight back?" Wang Jue said with a taut face~www.novelbuddy.com~ counterattack? Need not. "Guo Shouyun shook his head.

Although this news looked bad to outsiders, Guo Shouyun didn't care much. Because he is very clear that the Internet field is a winner-take-all industry. Ruby Company has a lot of business synergy and has established its own deep moat. As long as you don't make mistakes, you will gradually attract more users over time.

"...I know Tim George. He is indeed a good professional manager, but not a good strategist. It is good to use his ruby ​​experience to manage the excellence network, but 'Learn me to live, like me to die' , the more JoyoNet resembles a ruby, the less likely it will have a chance to surpass us."

After a pause, "How much has LinkedIn's stock price dropped now?"

"At $393, the decline in LinkedIn's share price has stopped after we started buying back our shares. ... By the way, here's what we saw in your mailbox this morning."

After taking the document and seeing the contents above, Guo Shouyun narrowed his eyes.

"Stan O'Neal invited me to Merrill Lynch's shareholders meeting!"

"Boss, the previous Merrill Lynch shareholders meeting rarely invited you. Did he already know...?"

Wu Xiaojing didn't finish speaking, but the meaning of the words was already revealed very clearly.

Guo Shouyun pondered for a moment and then slowly shook his head, "I don't know either, but I'll understand after I go. ... But no matter what, this is an opportunity. It's also time to divert people's attention from Ruby. When the news is released, it will definitely give those guys a big 'surprise'!"

No matter what medicine Stan O'Neal sells in the gourd. Guo Shouyun, who has absolute control of Merrill Lynch's board of directors, has secured the victory!

"Jingle Bell!"

At this moment, Guo Shouyun's cell phone on the table suddenly rang.
