"Is there a bit of a rush for layoffs?"

Amanda stood in front of Andy, helping him with his tie, said with a frown.

"No large-scale layoffs, just use the excuse that the media business will cost the company hundreds of millions of dollars every year to kick off some stumbling blocks. Otherwise, how can we put our people in? Only the middle-level management is the cornerstone of an enterprise. OK, let's go, don't let others wait for a long time. This is also your new performance. At the same time, we cut off the comment area of the article page. I Their reason is that most users are already forwarding and commenting on social networks, and they will gain more users on those platforms.

The video is also an important part of the revision. In the small window in the upper right corner of each article, the video of Bloomberg TV will play silently and automatically, and you can jump to watch it with a click. "

Andy looks at the irregular layout and gorgeous color matching of the website page, smiles and nods when people focus on his face, saying: "yes, it's very bold and crazy, I like this page, maybe I should also add the display form of waterfall flow..."

"Good idea, God, how can I forget this, boss, it's a great idea..."

Andy is no wonder that presky is straightforward and doesn't care about office culture. After all, he is used to Silicon Valley and says with a smile: "when the title is matched with rich colors, it's easier to attract people's attention, and the effect of the big picture is more so. Bold column lines and wider white space also make each part more distinct. Yes, I like this layout. That's it. You can change the layout of the website when you go back.

Bloomberg news, Bloomberg business week, Bloomberg market, Bloomberg pursuit magazine and Bloomberg's Radio and television information are all integrated into the new website. original Businessweek.com And Bloombergbusiness.com Two domain names need to jump to Bloomberg.com On the home page. "

Andy's tone was unquestionable and he made a direct decision. He looked around the conference room for a week. Justin Smith, CEO of media group, Amanda, the new director of radio and television business, Laurie Hayes, the acting editor of Bloomberg news, presky of Bloomberg website, Josh taranquil, the editor in chief of business week, Bloomberg market, and Bloomberg market Two people in charge of the magazine, and, of course, Daniel daukopf, CEO of Bloomberg partners, who has not spoken.

In this way, the website was hammered down by Andy, and soon entered the next topic. For some reforms and suggestions on Bloomberg's Radio and television business, Amanda, although the newly appointed director, watched her talk with confidence and ease. Daniel daokoutov, CEO of Bloomberg partnership Co., Ltd., was a little complicated.

His CEO, who is in charge of the whole Bloomberg News Agency, has been in a state of loss. The media group, which only accounts for 15% of the company's business, has been virtually excluded. To his surprise, Andy Smith has grasped the most important Bloomberg news so quickly.

To be honest, Daniel is very simple if he wants to block Andy. After all, the most important source of Bloomberg news is the data terminals for rent and sale. If he wants to, he can block the neck of these media teams. The problem is that he has no reason to do this. Without the support of Michael Bloomberg, his professional manager dares to do this with Andy If the second largest shareholder bares his teeth, Andy dares to propose to fire him. Maybe Michael Bloomberg will refuse, but that's just maybe. What if he agrees?

That's stupid. No one knows what the old fox is thinking. He often says ambiguous words to let his subordinates guess. If they don't agree or make mistakes, he will turn his face and throw the pot away. Then he kicks out of the company and works too hard for the old man.

"Daniel, I checked the financial situation of the media business from 2002 to now. To tell you the truth, I am speechless and lose hundreds of millions of dollars every year. If it's not for the amazing profits of data terminals, I really can't believe that I can survive until now. From the beginning, there was only one news organization. Now, there are eight subordinate news organizations in the company. They are on the news line There are different teams in TV, radio, Internet, magazines and other fields.

What I can't understand most is that these news organizations are all set up from scratch, completely abandoning the route of acquisition, annexation and absorption, which undoubtedly increases financial expenditure. "

Daniel also shook his head and smiled bitterly when he heard Justin Smith, the CEO of the new media group: "Mr. Bloomberg is not interested in acquiring the company, because it is not pure enough, he believes in his own team."

"Although our financial affairs will be consolidated and reported, it's not a long-term plan to keep losing money. I checked the personnel information. There are too many people in each media team. At present, the U.S. economy is affected by the subprime mortgage crisis, and the market is stagnant. In order to cut costs and reduce losses, the next step is to carry out various departments before the integration of media groups A layoff

Justin had a warm smile on his face, but what he said made everyone in the room feel chilly and cold. He immediately began to talk in a low voice. Although more than a dozen people in the room are important management, the fire of layoffs will not burn them, but after all, they are all following their subordinates. It is a difficult decision to decide who will not be cut."Let me say my opinion first. Layoffs are imperative. The whole wall street is downsizing. There is no way. Besides, front-line journalists and editors will not move this time. 135 global offices are downsizing except for journalists and editors!"

With Andy's voice falling, the whole conference room was in a state of uproar, especially Bloomberg business week, which was not under Andy's influence. The faces of the two editors of Bloomberg pursuit magazine were completely gloomy, but they also knew that their arms could not be twisted. After all, these media teams had been handed over to Michael Bloomberg this year Light people, their life and death have been tightly clenched in Andy Smith's hand.

On the contrary, the head of Bloomberg market is not worried. He also knows that the job cuts will not fall on the head of his department. They are a bridge for information exchange between Bloomberg data terminals and media groups, not affiliated to media groups.

"In this layoff meeting, we will conduct business capability evaluation and screening, and soon set up a special group. You are the future cornerstone of Bloomberg media group. I hope you can cooperate with the work of the special group at that time!"

Justin changed his warm smile, his eyes were sharp, and his expression was cold and fierce. He looked around his new subordinates and said words of comfort and warning.

。。。。。。

The meeting was over soon. Everyone left the meeting room with a solemn expression. Andy looked at the back of CEO Daniel's departure. He just smiled a little. He knew that the news of layoff would be received by Michael Bloomberg soon. However, to disappoint many people, the old man would only like to see it succeed. After all, as a Jew, he would like his company to make more money Money.
