Chapter 623: Introduction of Aaliyah (5)

Simon put on his clothes and went to the study next door. Aaliya also took a file bag.

Give the portfolio to Simon sitting on the single sofa in the reception area. Instead of sitting down next to her, Aaliya knelt down on the carpet next to Simon’s sofa, and her soft body climbed the sofa arm like a snuggle. The cat next to the owner briefly introduced: "This is a piece of information asked by someone at home to ask me to help recommend. The boss, the other party is very powerful in India. My father can't refuse it. Just look at it. "

Simon felt Alia's cautious, just smiled, not too minded.

In fact, there are many similar things in the family. He was born in a human society, and it is even more common. Simon’s red line is just that people around him don’t hide his tiger skin from him. Once found, he will not give any room for change.

Although it is the top brahmin in the Indian caste system, Aaliyah’s family background is not outstanding. The girl’s father is only a law professor at the University of Delhi in India.

There are not many things in the portfolio, only a letter and a beautifully bound introduction manual.A word on the cover of the manual slightly attracted Simon's enough: Wipro.

Wipro Corporation.

In memory, this is one of the largest software vendors in India. Wipro boss Azim Premji later became the richest man in the Indian software industry, once occupying the third place on the Indian rich list.

The other envelope was indeed a handwritten letter from Azim Premki.

The entrepreneur, who is now one of India's well-known riches, outlined the reason for the incident in his personal letter. The other party believes that the new annual software outsourcing tender for Igreut in March did not really consider Wipro For his comprehensive strength, he hopes to get a chance to present himself to Tim Berners Lee, CEO of Igret.

Later, people mentioned that the powerful software industry is an indispensable topic.

This is actually a kind of misunderstanding.

India's software industry is not strong. What is strong is the software outsourcing industry.The difference is probably the gap between Apple and Foxconn.Even for many years after the new century, India’s software industry is only providing the most basic software service support for the world’s major technology giants. It has never completed industrial upgrading and has always been at the lowest end of the software industry’s food chain.

Because of the huge demand and the abundant and low-cost human resources, India’s software industry exports accounted for about 80% of India’s total exports at its peak, and the total output value also exceeded 100 billion US dollars.

However, the Indian software outsourcing industry at this stage is still in the early stages of development, and the services it can provide are more low-end, often just simple data classification and content entry. Throughout 1993, the total output value of the Indian software outsourcing industry was less than 500 million. US dollars.

In Simon's memory, the acceleration of the Indian software outsourcing industry has benefited from the'millennium bug crisis'.

At the end of the 1990s, all global technology giants provided India with millions of software outsourcing orders in order to modify the thousands of bugs in a large number of software.The real outbreak of the Indian software outsourcing industry was after 2000. The bursting of the Internet bubble prevented countless Western technology companies from being able to do anything. In order to survive, they had to find ways to reduce costs. The average salary of employees is only equivalent to that of Silicon Valley engineers. Aroused the idea of ​​the West.

Igreat at this stage can also be described as rich and wealthy.

However, whether it is Simon or several core executives of Igret, they are always very cost-effective. Therefore, since 1992, Igrit has been leading many other technology companies in cooperation with Indian software outsourcing vendors. It is mainly the portal software, search engines, e-commerce, etc. under Igrid, which have the most basic software service requirements such as large-scale data classification and content entry.

After several years of explosive growth, coupled with the continuing expansion of the Silicon Valley talent gap at this stage, the total outsourcing orders of Eaglet in 1994 are expected to reach US$300 million.

After all, getting an order from Igret means not only a huge amount of income, but also a potential increase in corporate visibility.Faced with the solicitation of business by other technology companies, with the label of'Igret's partner', the success rate of reaching cooperation will definitely increase significantly.

In the study of the Woodside Villa.

Simon finished reading the handwritten letter of Azim Premki, while reading through the company's introduction manual prepared by the other party, his thoughts began to diverge.

If Aaliya referred someone else, Simon would only deal with it a little bit.

However, since it can be the richest man in the Indian software industry in the original space-time, Azim Premki certainly has a place worth cooperating with.

One of the most important secrets of the rapid development of the Westeros system over the years is actually Simon’s investment in'people'.

Whether it’s Da Nellis Entertainment’s film talent “trained ahead of time” based on Simon’s memory, or executives in the Westeros system such as Jeff Bezos, Raymond Smith, etc., it’s all about the memory of Simon’s memory. Characters.These people have proved in Simon's memory that they have the potential to lead the company to success, coupled with Simon's rich resource support and correct development direction, and finally created the Westeros system now.

Azim Premki is obviously a person with similar potential.

Determined, Simon's thoughts continued to deepen.

With the outbreak of the Internet industry, the total gap of Silicon Valley technology talents has reached more than 300,000 at this stage. The result of various technology companies' efforts to win talents is naturally a significant increase in the average salary level.Igrid currently recruits software engineers, and the minimum annual salary is already starting at $50,000.

On the other hand, because of strict US immigration policy restrictions, a large number of outstanding software engineers in many other countries in the world have been blocked outside North America.

The inability of these people to enter the United States does not mean that they cannot serve Silicon Valley. The biggest advantage of the information age is that they can pull the distance between people in communication.

And, since Igrid has a lot of software outsourcing needs, so should many other technology companies suffering from the Silicon Valley talent gap.

In this case, Igrid may be able to create a dedicated software outsourcing platform to build a communication and cooperation bridge between Silicon Valley and potential partners across the United States and around the world. This will definitely be a big business.

The most important point is that by doing so, it can also create massive job opportunities for the United States and the world.

For the current Westeros system, the more people have the jobs, the more powerful they have the right to speak in the face of the governments of the United States and the world.Any politician, if the tens of thousands of people lose their jobs because of the crackdown on the Westeros system, he can imagine the end.

In memory of Google, Facebook, Microsoft, Amazon and other international Internet giants, Google, Facebook and Microsoft have all encountered large-scale antitrust investigations and huge fines in North America and Europe. Only Amazon, the technology giant’s monopoly Compared with several other companies, it is not bad, but it rarely encounters antitrust investigations. This is not without reason.

The main reason is that Amazon controls the jobs of too many people.

Worldwide, the total number of employees at the peak of Amazon is more than 500,000, which is more than the synthesis of the other four of the five technology giants FAANG. Moreover, the coverage of Amazon employees is very wide, and people of all levels have, and It is not just the other four that are focused on high-tech talent.

Not only that, Amazon e-commerce has brought millions of potential job opportunities to Western countries within its own industrial chain.

It is conceivable that if the North American and European authorities oppressed Amazon too much, okay, if you want a fine, I can only lay off staff to save money. 100,000 people are enough, not enough to cut another 100,000. Once Amazon really reduces the scale, The loss of surrounding job opportunities is even more difficult to measure.

This is the right to speak.

Among the many companies in the Westeros system, if you want to make a ranking, the ranking of the video chain giant Blockbuster, which holds 35% of Daenerys Entertainment, will definitely be very close.

As of the first quarter of 1994, the total number of BesStar's global stores has exceeded 5,600. Even when Simon and Nancy, who all attach great importance to the efficiency of the enterprise and avoid the size of employees, are closely watching, at this stage, BesStar The total number of employees has reached more than 41,000 people. The average number of employees in each store is 7.3, which is significantly lower than the average data of 9.1 people in the same type of chain stores in the industry.

The more than 40,000 of BesTV's employee programs that do not require high qualifications are a big voice for the Westeros system.

During this period of planning, this year's mid-term elections will be targeted at anti-Westero parliamentary candidates for sniping. The entire Westero system in North America will be mobilized by hundreds of thousands of employees and their families.

However, Simon was not satisfied.

If Igrid can build a global outsourcing platform for Unicom, whether it is a professional software engineer or a housewife who only wants to earn a piece of cake on the Internet platform through a simple data entry classification and other online jobs, then in the future, then, in the future The right of Igret’s discourse will be raised again.

For example, if the authorities want to split Igrid, we must consider whether the hundreds of thousands of outsourcing jobs created by Igrid every year are affected.After all, even if the government wants to suppress this influence, Igrid, who has his own portal media platform, will preach things: See, what those politicians have done, and everyone may no longer be able to make money online to subsidize households.

Since ancient times, ordinary people have been the most prone group of people.

Maybe you just let them lose a sewing needle, as long as there is a chance, they don't mind letting you lose an iron ore, even if this iron ore provides them with all the pots and pans they need in life.

I realized that although my boss was still reading the introduction manual, his expression was obviously a little distracted. Aaliyah did not disturb, still lying on the side of the sofa with her arms folded on the armrests, supporting her chin and looking up at the man in front of her eyes. Nothing to disturb.

Of course, there are some expectations in my heart.

If this is done, the family will probably not urge her to return to India in the future.

Parents have always been very cryptic about her current job. After all, how can noble brahmin go to be a maid for others, even Simon Westeros’ maid, although she has always explained that she is Mrs. Westero’s yoga teacher , But the specifics, the family knows well.

For the current job that is easy and high-paying and can live in the United States, Aaliyah does not intend to give up at all.

You know, they only need to work up to 20 days per month on weekdays, and they can move freely at other times. Well, apart from not being in love, Aaliya feels that her life is really similar to that of a princess, living in the most luxurious apartment , Not only have a personal driver, but also travel around in the Westeros private plane. The food and clothing on weekdays are also the ultimate. Such a life will not be bored even for a lifetime, not to mention, they are not Lack of room to rise, women such as Sophia Fissi, Alice Ferguson, and Claire Gein have all been the same.

The study was quiet for more than twenty minutes, the sky outside the window was dark unconsciously, Aaliya turned on the light quietly, and returned to the sofa again, the men were still immersed in their thoughts.

Until the knock on the door rang, Simon finally recovered.

Promised, the study door was pushed open, it was Yasmine Gary.

The waist fine probe came in. His eyes met with Aaliyah at first, and there were some small sparks that were not traced. Then he converged and looked at the man on the sofa: "Simon, dinner is ready."

Simon closed the introductory manual that had been turned over twice unconsciously and said, "I'll come right away."

Yasmin nodded and glanced at Alia again before closing the door gently.

Simon noticed the small eyes of Yao Jing this time, think about the origin of the two women, probably understand what, even if Yasmin is already Canadian, the natural opposition between Indian and Pakistani people will not disappear, just like the Western day Like Chinese and Chinese.

For kitten fights between women, as long as he does not scratch his face, Simon will not care.

Looking at Alia who was looking forward, Simon stretched out his finger to tease the woman's delicate face and said, "Should Azim be in San Francisco?"

Alia nodded, pretending to open her mouth and biting Simon's forefinger to grind her small white teeth, and then quickly released.

Simon said: "After dinner, I called Jeff and let him take the time to talk with each other. Even if Tim, he is only responsible for the technology research and development department of Igret, the management is Jeff and Carol In charge."

Of course, Aaliyah also knew who Tim, Jeff and Carol Simon said were, and nodded again: "Thank you boss."

There was something in my heart that wanted to call'Simon', just like the woman just now.

But dare not.

Simon reloaded Azim’s autograph and Wipro’s corporate brochure into his portfolio, intending to send it to Bezos, remembering something, and then smilingly asked Alia: “Has Azim benefited you? "

Aaliyah quickly shook her head: "No, no."

Simon said: "This is not enough, you have helped him so much, of course you have to benefit."

Aaliya noticed that Simon was not teasing herself, and hesitated a little, and confessed: "The other party promised my father to be their company's legal adviser."

"That's right," Simon knocked lightly on the girl's head, stood up from the sofa, and said: "However, this kind of thing can't be addictive, otherwise I would be angry."

Alia followed and nodded seriously: "I know, boss."
