Becoming Rich with Daily Scavenging APP-Chapter 615: User Representative
Chen Yiyang and Yang Chengru excitedly discussed for a whole day and finalized a detailed solution.
The next day, Chen Yiyang called over all the management team.
"I'm planning to change Bilibili's management model moving forward."
Chen Yiyang glanced at the Bilibili management team present and found that most of them didn't have any objections.
Because Chen Yiyang had conducted a major overhaul when he took over Bilibili, the current management team, learning from their predecessors' lessons, dared not say much.
"Current CEO Xu Yun will step down from the CEO position. I've decided that the choice of the new CEO will be up to you, and you will be responsible for voting to elect one.
Then, to better unite the platform and content creators, I will establish a position for a general representative of content creators and users, and add relevant features on the platform.
Any 'UP' who can consistently and stably bring revenue sharing to the platform will automatically become a user representative, and these representatives will elect a general representative to join the company's management team.
Every month, representatives can propose issues they hope the platform can solve, and all representatives will vote on them, selecting the one proposal they hope the platform prioritizes solving.
The proposal selected through voting will be submitted by the representatives to the management team, requesting them to address it."
Chen Yiyang's method essentially found a representative of interests for all platform users and content creators.
In the future, no problem will have to wait until there is a large-scale issue or public sentiment before the platform management starts resolving it.
Although this adds a lot of work for the platform, the future benefits it can bring far outweigh these expenses.
Furthermore, many company bosses often face a problem.
That is, they cannot directly understand the core demands of users, and cannot supervise whether the management is working diligently in areas not related to promotions or salary raises.
Now, this position will solve such problems.
"Boss." The management team was shocked by Chen Yiyang's decision.
Although Chen Yiyang did give them a benefit by letting them choose a CEO themselves.
Faced with this benefit, the reforms brought by Chen Yiyang posed greater hassles.
Because originally they only needed to be accountable to the boss.
Now, even platform users can issue orders to them.
So, they quickly came up with reasons to reject this arrangement.
"What if these user representatives or general representatives propose agenda items out of self-interest that only benefit themselves for us to handle?"
"This is easily handled." Chen Yiyang already had a countermeasure.
He began, "Agenda items proposed by user representatives must be made public for all platform users, and the agendas voted by the user representatives to be submitted by the General Assembly Speaker to the management must also be made public.
These user representatives are quality creators themselves, and their income depends on monetizing their traffic.
If they submit agenda items purely out of self-interest, they will immediately face backlash from their own fans.
This will directly impact their own income, so no user representative will choose to do this."
After Chen Yiyang finished speaking, the management team had no reason to oppose and had to follow Chen Yiyang's arrangements.
Considering he was about to go to Morocco soon.
Chen Yiyang was worried that after he left, the current Bilibili management might use delaying tactics to counter his arrangement.
Thus, he specially instructed Xu Yun to complete this matter before resigning.
Meanwhile, Chen Yiyang had Bilibili's official account directly publish a notification regarding the establishment of user representatives and general representatives.
After Bilibili's official account notified all platform users about this matter.
It quickly made the headlines on all major platforms.
This is the first time a social platform, a video platform, is allowing ordinary users to participate in the platform's higher-level management.
In the past, big platforms always claimed to listen to user opinions.
Yet what they said and did never lined up.
Even when facing large-scale user attrition, they only pretended to tweak some insubstantial issues.
Now, Bilibili's approach is completely different.
By user representatives voting and the general representative submitting issues to the company, in Chen Yiyang's design, it is mandatory for the company management to solve and execute these issues immediately and unconditionally.
It is coercive.
Moreover, this process is supervised and endorsed by Chen Yiyang, the big boss. 𝘧𝓇𝑒𝑒𝑤ℯ𝑏𝓃𝘰𝑣ℯ𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝘮
Meaning, if the platform management ignores these agenda items, Chen Yiyang will intervene and replace the management team.
This is completely different from the practices of previous platforms.
Chen Yiyang has figured this out too.
Being a boss has little difference from being an emperor in ancient times.
An emperor should not always assume officials and ministers are on his side.
In reality, high-level officials and ministers have their own interests, and once a company collapses, it's easy for these high-level officers to find other paths.
Even if they can't find any, the salary they've earned before is enough for them to continue living comfortably.
On the contrary, it's the platform users who are the true breadwinners of the boss.
It's precisely due to the spending and consumption of platform users that the company benefits in order to sustain itself.
In the past, when the company had problems, it was pointless for bosses to reshuffle the management team.
Because high-level management always has exits, and plenty of savings, they can just run away if worse comes to worst.
Therefore, the boss must truly stand with ordinary users, and use the strength of users to supervise the management team.
What Chen Yiyang figured out, the vast number of netizens quickly understood.
Soon, major bloggers voiced their support for Bilibili's reform, stating: "These social platforms rely on ordinary users to make money. Yet throughout the management process, they often disregard the rights of ordinary users.
Now, ordinary users are allowed to participate in the platform's management through user representatives. User representatives will serve users well and can generate more traffic income, boosting their earnings.
And the agenda submitted by user representatives for their fans, once adopted by the platform, can make the user experience more enjoyable, and sharing user representatives' income growth can bring more profit.
This is clearly a win-win-win situation.
Seizing on Bilibili's reform, netizens all of a sudden became passionate about various discussions, hoping other platforms could follow suit in reforming.
Of course, that's impossible.
The management teams of these platforms do not have the clear-minded direction like Chen Yiyang.
Upon discovering public sentiment getting out of control, they first communicate with Bilibili's management, hoping Bilibili would cancel this unrealistic reform.
Otherwise, they would suffer too.
Yet Bilibili's management doesn't have the authority for that.
And the one with authority, Chen Yiyang, was already on a plane, arriving at the airport of Morocco's capital.
Disembarking from the plane, Chen Yiyang was dumbfounded.
Wasn't it said that this is Africa? But all around, there are only groups of whites, hardly any sight of blacks.
