Reborn America, this is my time

Chapter 86 Recruitment
Whether it's the anger of Mirov's management, the anger of Nolan Bushnell, or the anger of Don Valentine.Ethan Jones can actually imagine these reactions.

After all, he released the news to piss people off. In this case, if you don't imagine the enemy's indignant reaction after receiving the news, and imagine the opponent's jumping feet, then what is the behavior of his releasing the news? significance?
He will not do things that waste public resources!

Since it took up public resources, he had to make himself happy!
And after thinking about it——

"Hehehe~"

Ethan Jones let out a long breath, and immediately felt comfortable physically and mentally.

After having fun, Ethan didn't forget his business. Now that the company has been established, the necessary framework should be built.But even though he was a man in two lifetimes, he never really managed a company, so under his reference, Atari's corporate structure was followed by him, and four departments were temporarily set up in the company, namely administration, finance, production and sales.

The first thing to be formed is naturally the administration.

Administrative recruitment is neither difficult nor easy, although most of the time this job does not use too much professional knowledge, but because of the variety of affairs involved, this job will make you feel more comfortable in practice. People find it complicated.

Therefore, Ethan wants to recruit a few employees with certain communication skills and good patience.

If it were normal recruitment, Ethan would spend a lot of time on this department alone, because before the birth of the Internet, it was really troublesome to recruit people, either to advertise in newspapers and magazines, or to contact the local human resources service company To communicate, this kind of communication mode that cannot cross time and space will really make people in the new era very helpless.

The efficiency is too low!
Fortunately, Ethan is located in the Stanford Industrial Park.

With the backing of the Stanford Entrepreneurship Office, you can directly ask the teachers about your needs, and you will get a list of job applicants after the preliminary screening.

After a brief selection, let the teacher notify them to come for an interview.

At nine o'clock the next morning, seven job seekers appeared in the lobby on the first floor of Kismet.

After interviewing them one by one, Ethan chose two of them.

The first is Damio Dean, an undergraduate student at the Stanford School of Engineering who just graduated this summer.This is a tall and thin male young man. He was chosen because he showed his love for "Snake Game" unabashedly during the interview.

Ethan admired the richness of his words and the sincerity of his tone.

Of course, what impressed Ethan even more was that this guy directly stated——

"Oh Ethan! I spent at least 500 yuan on "Snake Game"!"

"I've played it at least two thousand times!"

"Although I haven't cleared the level so far, I will continue! Because I believe I have this ability!"

Um!Ethan also believes that this kind of fanatical game fans will definitely be able to do the job of running (protecting) politics (security)!
Anyone who expresses dissatisfaction with the game here doesn't need him to speak, this guy can fork out the troublemakers!
The second place is Julis Noble, an undergraduate student from the Stanford School of Humanities. This is a blonde girl.

The reason why she impressed Ethan was because the major on her resume was philosophy.

This major made Ethan a little curious, and when he asked the other party why he chose philosophy, the girl said——

"Because my parents and my family members are all devout Protestants. They educated me since I was a child to be devoutly bathed in the Holy Light. At the same time, I also received school education. The teacher told us that we It is a free country, and everyone has free will. When I accepted these two ideas at the same time, I was confused. If we are a free country, everyone can have free will, then Why did my parents guide me to believe in something? And if we are not a free country, parents, friends and teachers can instill all kinds of ideas in us at will, then why do the teachers in the school tell us that people are free?"

"I don't understand this, but I want to understand this."

"So, when applying to college, I chose the philosophy department."

"Because I want to know, are our minds pure? Do we really have free will?"

Hearing these words, Ethan was stunned on the spot!

Then he gave a thumbs up in his heart.

It is really awesome to be able to realize that freedom is not freedom in America in the 70s.

And this kind of person who is good at finding fault must be suitable for administrative positions.

Well thought out!

Now that the decision was made, Ethan took out the contract and signed with them.

The weekly salary is [-], and the annual salary is [-].

Although it seems that it is much higher than the median income of more than 5000, if you really want to calculate it, it is the average salary in the industry.

With the signing of the two, Ethan also took out a list of tasks that had been drawn up for them to complete.The content written above includes but is not limited to customizing the door for the company, purchasing daily necessities and office supplies for the company, registering social security for the company's employees, and so on.

Speaking of social insurance, Ethan is a little annoyed, because in the social insurance payment, the enterprise pays 6.2%, and the employee pays 4.2%. It seems very little, but the payment base is based on the employee's salary, and there is no minimum payment base.

Therefore, most employees can only accept the actual payment...

Hey!
It's all money!

After handing over the trivial matters in the company to the newly recruited administrative clerk, Ethan turned his attention to the financial department again.

To be honest, at first Ethan wanted to directly recruit financial staff at Stanford, because he thought it would be very convenient, but after he told Evelyn about his idea, the other party directly said that Thomas had already helped them find an accountant ——

"Thomas has got us an accountant, the son of our farmer's bookkeeper."

"In his 30s, he has been in the industry for eight years. Before that, he worked in a production-oriented electronics company in Mountain View."

"Thomas said this man could be trusted because his father had been keeping accounts for our family for almost 30 years."

"There hasn't been a single problem. During the IRS temporary inspection before, it passed perfectly."

Now that Thomas has already found a candidate for him, Ethan is not welcome.

He dialed the number in his hand and invited the other party to meet.

It was a middle-aged man with a slightly fat body named Alan Macy. Like most Americans, he had a corn belly.

When Ethan asked him what he was going to do after taking over the start-up company, the guy said very sincerely——

"Boss, although we are a game company, we are essentially an industrial manufacturing company, because we will be involved in the production of arcade machines, so I will first establish a production ledger for the company with the idea of ​​an industrial manufacturing company, which will involve cost accounting. Content."

"From the current point of view, I can do it alone, but I believe that in the future, recruitment will definitely be required, because I have confidence in your game."

After chatting for a while, it seemed like they hit it off, so Ethan took out a contract and signed it with him.

Since his previous job's weekly salary was already $320, Ethan gave him a raise to $[-].

Therefore, his annual income can be [-].

Looks expensive, but...

The position of finance will be more expensive in the future.

This is the United States, and this position is facing the IRS.

After confirming the administration and finance, Ethan pressed the stop button on the company's recruitment.

Because of the two links of production and sales, there is no need to worry.

Let’s talk about production first. Before, when he was observing at Atari, Ethan had already discovered that Nolan Bushnell used hippies in the production of game arcade machines and circuit boards.When the society recognized that the beat generation could be qualified for these jobs, Ethan would be confident.

And sales...

This is even easier!

He himself is the best sales!
When the inventor of "Snake Game" released a new game...

This name alone can make countless merchants flock to it!
Still the same sentence, if you want to make money, you must first become famous!
After the fame comes, buyers will naturally come to the door!

As for delivery?

If possible, he would like most of the customers to pick up the goods themselves.

The Apple Effect can save costs even more!
"So, the product is missing now?"

After confirming that the company had been established successfully by himself, Ethan also hid in the chairman, CEO and president's office on the third floor.

Sitting on the boss chair, the comfortable feeling made him squint his eyes.

After simply enjoying it for a while, he took out a book of paper from the drawer and prepared to create a game.

However, after pulling out the pen and writing for a while, his right hand stopped for an instant.

Because at this moment, he suddenly realized that his choices seemed to be too many?

"Hiss... this is a bit of a headache!"

Ethan sucked in a breath of cold air, contributing to global warming.

And on the white paper in front of him, there are three items lying at the moment——

"Tetris (Northern Cube)"

Space Invaders

"Pac-Man"

　Note: ① Atari really hired a large number of hippies to make electronic arcade machines and circuit boards. Jobs also explained this, because the hippie movement was declining at that time, and many hippies needed a job. But they don't have any good technology, so their prices in the market are relatively cheap.How should I put it, this is actually the cost control of capitalists.
