As early as the year before last, Huawei Heartfelt Community released a speech entitled "20 Minutes" by Ren in EMT on June 20th, 20 19. Ren Zheng Fei said that he will recruit 20-30 "gifted teenagers" from all over the world this year, and he wants to recruit 200-300 from all over the world next year. These "gifted teenagers" drill into our lives like "loaches". Huawei will change because of the introduction of these talents, and it will also change Huawei's future because of them. Huawei in the future will be the benchmark of the whole industry. As long as it just dares to fight, Huawei will create standards that others need to abide by. This is brave words from a 70-year-old man, not blank words shouting slogans. Only 20 19 recruited eight "gifted teenagers" with an annual salary of one million. Ren knows the importance of talents. Before the start of the plan, Xu Zhijun, vice chairman of Huawei, said that Huawei hopes that talents from all over the world can join Huawei, and Huawei can provide them with the best treatment and the best development opportunities. At first glance, it seems that the deputy director is bragging, but in fact, Huawei did what they said.
According to statistics, by the end of 2020, Huawei's R&D personnel/kloc-0.05 million, accounting for 53.4% of the company's total number, with an annual salary of 706,000 per capita. As early as 2065.438+08, Huawei's profit was 59.3 billion yuan, and its investment in scientific research and development has exceeded 654.38+000 billion yuan, which is almost the company's profit. By 2020, Huawei's R&D expenditure will be close to 654.38+050 billion yuan, and the R&D investment in the past decade has exceeded 720 billion yuan. This shows that Huawei attaches importance to talents. 8 talents who joined Huawei in 2065.438+09 earned a minimum annual salary of 896,000 yuan, and even got a super-high annual salary of 2 million yuan. It is not only rare to enter Huawei with such treatment. Compared with the CEOs of many Fortune 500 companies, they are not arrogant, which makes people wonder why they got it. According to the information on the Internet, Huawei's basic requirements for "gifted teenagers" are very strict. China, QS 100, overseas institutions of USNEWS TOP30, mainly C9,211,985 institutions, with specialized research fields. There are a large number of papers published and cited in top international journals, and the research direction has excellent and rich commercial achievements. In ACM-ICPC, Kaggle, IOI, KDD, Hacking Contest and other famous events, the ranking of the former is preferred, and those with doctoral, undergraduate and master's degrees have rich competition experience and ranking. From this, we can find that Huawei requires not only prestigious schools, research directions and papers. Pay more attention to the results of academic competitions, especially the ranking of informatics competitions. It can be seen that Huawei attaches great importance to the practical operation ability of these geniuses, and these are just some basic criteria for participating in interviews. Let's take a look at the interview process of "Genius Boy" program: contact the project consultant members to conduct preliminary communication on the project and understand the basic information of the project arrangement and business. Unify HR and business departments of each business line, and link with each business unit for feedback; , each business HR contacts candidates, arranges departmental communication, and controls the double-selection process; The expert team will evaluate according to the requirements of doctoral recruitment. If this talent is found to be excellent and in line with the project direction, the talent plan will be launched, challenging the project evaluation and project results, and the president will interview. Those who can survive this harsh interview will have the opportunity to become Huawei's "genius boy", but Huawei's love for scientific and technological R&D talents is also beyond doubt. Ren said that Huawei has no natural resources to rely on, and only large oil fields, forests and coal mines can be tapped in people's minds.
Huawei has also mastered the key point of acquiring talents-saving money. For outstanding college students from all over the world, Huawei will offer them during the sophomore year, and for those talents who have been poached by Google for five or six times, Huawei will dig them up with higher salary. Ren knows very well that only by cultivating its own talents can Huawei continue to move forward in this environment. So what kind of genius will make Huawei earn millions of dollars this year? The two talents recently recruited by Huawei are from Huazhong University of Science and Technology, and they are known as Huawei's "family". In the past three years, Huazhong University of Science and Technology has provided Huawei with six "gifted teenagers". The genius "double yellow eggs" this time are Liao Minghui of Telecommunication College and Wu of Computer College. So what kind of ability can these two people make Ren Zheng Fei sit up and take notice? Liao Minghui is a 20 17 doctoral student at the School of Telecommunications, Huazhong University of Science and Technology. I have been in the team led by Professor Bai Xiang during my Ph.D.. The main research direction is computer vision. Before he graduated, he published a top paper at the IEEE International Conference on Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition, especially in M National Association of Artificial Intelligence (AAAI) and TPAMI, the top magazine of artificial intelligence. He published 9 papers in top journals and industry conferences, and applied for 5 invention patents. His academic research has been cited more than 1900 times on Google. The invented text detection algorithm has been adopted by Internet giants such as Tencent WeChat Baidu, and I am a reviewer of several top journals such as TIP, ECCV and IJCV. In addition, Liao Minghui won the national scholarship twice. He also won many awards, such as CCF-CV academic cutting-edge award, AI Chinese rising star 100, National Gold Award of Internet Student Innovation and Entrepreneurship Competition, CSC-IBM Scholarship for Outstanding Students in China, etc. His classmates said that few doctoral students in China can compete with him, so it was not surprising that he got Huawei's offer. Liao Minghui also got Huawei's "genius boy" with the highest annual salary of 2065438+100000. Wu, another "gifted boy", is equally outstanding although he only graduated from undergraduate course. I got excellent grades during my college years and worked as an intern at Google Microsoft. Have rich working experience and learning and innovation ability in large companies. Compared with the previous "gifted boy", Wu undoubtedly kept a low profile. He refused to be interviewed by the media, and even Liao Minghui's interview didn't get a response. In three years, more than a dozen talents joined the "genius boy". Undoubtedly, it broke the previous speculation that this was just Huawei's commercial gimmick. Ren made a bold statement on these rumors and welcomed scientists to Huawei, which can afford talents.
So what is the deep-seated reason behind Huawei's search for talents at all costs? Did these talents who entered Huawei really "make the best use of everything"? Since Ren 1987 founded Huawei, he has never stopped the pace of independent research and development. Since 1992, when he invested all his money in C & C08 switch, Ren firmly believed that only by mastering the scientific research strength can Huawei and even China stand at the top of the world in scientific research and development. So far, Huawei has been making continuous efforts to attract more R&D talents, even "geniuses". It is painstaking to let these talents join Huawei. Before 2000, Huawei could not break through the difficulties of 2G to 3G. Once I found a paper on SingleRAN algorithm in a magazine, which actually solved the dilemma that Huawei was caught in in its research. The Huawei team immediately launched an investigation and found that the author of this paper was a young mathematician from Russia. Ren attached great importance to it, saying that the scientist must join Huawei, and Huawei went to Russia to offer an annual salary of 2 million yuan, but the scientist still said that he did not want to leave his hometown to work. As a result, Huawei invested heavily to set up a research and development center at its doorstep under the instruction of its office. However, after the young mathematician joined the company, he played computer every day and didn't communicate with others. Ren Zheng Fei appointed a senior manager to investigate whether he was unhappy at work. As a result, the young mathematician perfunctory. During this time, Huawei didn't even know what research it was doing, but I didn't expect Huawei to be so tolerant of these talents. Ren believes that genius always has something different, and still provides him with the best treatment and the best research environment. Suddenly one day, a genius told Huawei that he had developed algorithms between different network systems and different algorithms of different network systems. This problem has puzzled all telecom equipment manufacturers for a long time. After this eccentric mathematician worked out the mobile network algorithm, he saved the operator more than 30% of the cost. It not only saves space, but also saves energy and protects the environment. It also helped Huawei successfully enter the Dutch telecom market and land in Europe through switches using this algorithm. 20 15 Kong Lingxian, who worked in Huawei for four years, was promoted as the project manager because of his outstanding contributions during this period. However, due to the pressure of project management, she could not strike a good balance between technology and management, and finally submitted her resignation to Huawei. After understanding the reasons for Kong Lingxian's resignation and his technical ability, Ren believes that he and the company have improperly employed people. On September 20 17, an apology letter was officially published in Weibo. Ren said apologetically: This is the company's fault. Come back! Shortly after the letter of apology was issued, Ren once again issued a document announcing the promotion of Liang Shanguang's employees, saying that the positions were randomly selected. The cause of the incident was that in August of 20 17, an employee of Huawei posted anonymously in Huawei's internal forum, pointing out that someone in the IT management department had leaked the company code, and then made a real-name report on Huawei's internal technology exchange platform "3ms". Not long after Liang Shanguang reported it, some leaders privately warned and threatened him. When he learned about it, Ren was both angry and happy. He was angry at such barbaric behavior in the company. He is very happy to have such employees, who are not afraid of power and think about the interests of the company. Then, in the name of Huawei's president, he promoted Liang Shanguang to two levels and transferred him to Shanghai Research Center for random selection. He even directly appointed Deng Taihua, president of Huawei, to personally protect the employee from retaliation. Afterwards, Ren published an email "Be true, be true".
From three things, we find that Huawei not only craves talents, but also knows how to cherish and protect talents. Ren knows that only with treatment, sincerity and protection can these talents shine better and attract more talents to join Huawei's scientific research and development army. Behind Huawei's efforts to attract talents at all costs, Ren is a visionary leader. For Huawei's future road planning, it is also the most critical factor for Huawei's survival and development in this wave of fierce competition. No matter how the business structure changes, high-end talents will always be the primary productivity of these high-tech companies. Under the living advertisement of Huawei, more companies pay more attention to the research and development of science and technology. In the heart of this 70-year-old man, there is still a burning heart, hoping that the country's science and technology will develop rapidly!
