Xueba's computing system

Chapter 161 People are afraid of being famous

When Vice President Liu Zhang found Lin Yuan, Lin Yuan guessed his intention.

"Lin Yuan, the company's stock price has soared this time, and you are the first contributor..."

Before the truth is revealed, the map must be slowly unfolded. Lin Yuan held a cup of coffee and listened to Liu Zhang's chatter.

It’s not that he likes drinking coffee, but Liu Zhang pretended to be cool and gave him hand-ground coffee on the spot, so he felt a little embarrassed not to drink it.

But to be honest, real Gouba tastes terrible and is not as good as instant coffee.

"As the first meritorious official, if you have any requests, just ask."

Lin Yuan knew that the time to make big promises had come.

"Boss Liu, there's no need to give credit to the hero. This is the result of everyone's hard work."

"As expected of Professor Zhang's student, you have great insight and vision. You have been in our company for half a year. The company feels that it has underestimated your ability and plans to sign a new contract with you."

"As for salary, if you have any requirements, just let me know. You haven't bought a house yet, right? Interest-free loans, stock options, and settling in Beijing and Songhu, these conditions can be met by the company."

You know what, this is a pretty good deal. In addition to giving money, they can also help you get a permanent residence. Many people have worked for more than ten or twenty years and still haven't been able to get a permanent residence in those two places, but they have left their youth behind.

Lin Yuan immediately felt a little ashamed. If all of what Liu Zhang said could be realized, it wouldn't be considered empty talk.

"Mr. Liu, is the contract still the same as before?"

"It's almost the same as before. We just need to upgrade our non-compete agreement. In addition, for your future, the company plans to give you a long-term contract starting from five years."

Lin Yuan's heart suddenly skipped a beat. It turned out that there is no free lunch in the world.

After he finished reading the non-compete agreement handed to him by Liu Zhang, the self-harming feeling he had just felt completely disappeared.

According to the list of companies to be avoided listed in the non-compete agreement, almost all first-, second- and third-tier brands in the IT industry are included. Moreover, the term is ten years.

It can be said that if Lin Yuan signs the contract, it would be equivalent to selling himself to a good group for the next ten years.

"This is the company's sincerity." Liu Zhang said to Lin Yuan with a smile.

Lin Yuan did not deny that, for ordinary people, the conditions offered by Haotuan were indeed worthy of the non-compete agreement.

As for equal rights and responsibilities, there is nothing much to say once you enter society.

But Lin Yuan obviously couldn't accept it. Ten years? What a joke, ten years for a cheater is so precious.

"Mr. Liu, can we do this? It doesn't matter whether I settle down or not," Lin Yuan did not have a strong desire to put down roots in a first-tier city.

"I have no problem with the timing of this non-compete agreement, but can the scope of the company remain the same?"

Lin Yuan actually had a problem with the "ten-year period" of the non-compete agreement, but he couldn't completely overturn the new non-compete agreement, so he just regarded it as a concession. Anyway, the original non-compete agreement only stipulated that Lin Yuan could not work for some Alibaba-affiliated companies. This was because Haotuan's biggest competitor, Niumei, was affiliated with Alibaba.

Lin Yuan had no intention of staying in the food delivery industry for long, so the impact on him was not significant. Ten years is ten years.

"Well..." Liu Zhang looked embarrassed. "Let's talk behind closed doors. The scope of companies involved in this agreement is indeed a bit harsh, but it also reflects the company's attention to you. The company will give you enough compensation. The annual non-compete compensation starts at one million, and it will be paid immediately after you sign.

This is just the non-compete compensation. Your salary and options are calculated separately."

"I also know that the conditions offered by the company are very sincere," Lin Yuan did not deny, "but I still want freedom. In addition, I hope that the work contract can be signed for one year. Or simply sign it until I graduate in two years." Lin Yuan wanted to sign the work contract for one month, and agreeing to sign it until the moment he graduated from graduate school was already his biggest concession.

"Freedom?" Liu Zhang stood up and refilled Lin Yuan's coffee, just like refilling tea, even though Lin Yuan didn't drink much.

"Lin Yuan, to be honest, do you know how much I envy you? When I was your age, I was still anxious about getting a good job after graduation. We study and work for money, right?"

Liu Zhang is a technician, and he is quite cool in his daily life. He always talks about how technology changes the world and how it can provide services and give back to society. He is a typical high-end technology practitioner with some coolness and ambition.

But at this moment, he took the initiative to say, "It's just for money."

Lin Yuan thought to himself, "It seems that as long as it's not a real pie in the sky, and as long as the pie is big enough, it's enough to make people stop pretending."

Liu Zhang continued, "You joined a good group as a student. In the eyes of the company, you are raised by the family. This is different from other parachuted people. You will easily be regarded as a direct descendant.

Then you can work in the research institute first. In a few years, you will definitely be able to get the position of deputy director of the Songhu Research Institute.

The company's technical vice president did not explicitly set a limit on the number of people. If you are unscrupulous for ten years, you can complete the journey that I took twenty years to complete.

If you make more significant contributions, it is possible that you will be admitted to the board of directors in the future. I may even have to report to you in the future.”

After all, Liu Zhang was a technical person, and although he represented the interests of the group and had his own standpoint, he was sincere when he spoke behind closed doors.

"Mr. Liu, thank you for your kindness. For the sake of our common understanding during this period, and for the sake of the fact that you and my mentor have many common teachers and classmates, please tell me the truth. This time, there is no room for negotiation with the company."

Lin Yuan's implication was that he would never accept Haotuan's non-compete agreement.

"Why are you doing this?" Liu Zhang looked puzzled. But he also answered Lin Yuan's question.

Lin Yuan didn't say anything more. He picked up the coffee and took a big sip. "Thank you, Mr. Liu, for the coffee. Thank you, Mr. Liu, for your tolerance during this period of time."

"Lin Yuan," Liu Zhang called out to Lin Yuan before he was about to open the door of the office.

"Think about our company's market value. The Internet is a capital-intensive place." His tone was sincere. "If you take the initiative to negotiate, you can ask for more conditions. If you surrender after being beaten down, you won't ask for so much."

"Mr. Liu always said that the good group would mess with me?"

"I did not say anything."

"Thank you, Mr. Liu. I've made note of it, but I won't be defeated."

"Hey~~"

When Lin Yuan closed the door, he only heard a long sigh from inside.

Liu Zhang was very considerate. After all, he looked like Lin Yuan, an ordinary person with an IT background. He achieved class advancement by taking the technical route.

Therefore, it was inevitable that he would regard Lin Yuan as the same kind of person.

However, he might also use this slightly warning "advice from seniors" to complete the task assigned to him by the group to capture Lin Yuan.

Who knows the specific situation? Lin Yuan is willing to take a positive attitude towards this. He is willing to believe that Liu Zhang is kind-hearted. He doesn't want to be a person whose mind is full of conspiracy theories all day long, because that would make life very tiring.
