As the selection process for "Exemplary Investors" at the Spark Base progressed, the atmosphere at the base became more positive and uplifting, and the enthusiasm of the grassroots workers was once again ignited.
Although the base stipulated that everyone should no longer work overtime, they began to pay more attention to work efficiency and quality because everyone wanted to compete for the honor and reward of being a "model citizen".
Within the limited 14 hours, everyone raced against time, striving to do their best in their work.
Overall, the amount of work completed by the cattle and horses under the Fire Seed Base each day was not much less than what everyone had accomplished working all night long a while ago.
This made the base's top management both gratified and somewhat uneasy.
It seems they were too lenient with the cattle and horses at the base before. Now, these cattle and horses work only 14 hours a day, just 2 hours more than the previous 12 hours, but the amount of work completed has increased by more than 50%.
"It seems there's still potential for exploitation among these cattle and horses!" the senior executives remarked.
"Chief, you are truly brilliant! With such a simple method, you have not only improved the overall work efficiency of our base, but also tested the potential of those cattle and horses," a senior leader of the base said to Li Yi with flattery.
The other high-ranking officials were not to be outdone, and they all chimed in, flattering Li Yi.
Li Yi burst into laughter upon seeing this.
Then, adopting a sermon-like demeanor, he said to everyone in a deep voice, "I often tell you all to use your brains more. The reason why my Fire Seed Base has been able to develop to its current scale and why the people below can work honestly is not because of the threat of force, but because of wisdom."
"What the leader says is true, but our wisdom is far inferior to even a fraction of yours," General Jin Beilin flattered.
"Yes, we thought too highly of those cattle and horses. Who would have thought they'd be so cunning and slackers? The base raised them, and they've turned on the base, shirking their duties and not putting in any effort." Another high-ranking official chimed in, lamenting, "There are bad guys among those cattle and horses!"
Everyone nodded in agreement.
Li Yi smiled faintly, his eyes gleaming with wisdom: "It's alright. Now that we've tested their potential, we can simply adjust the workload based on their current work efficiency."
"The leader is wise!" General Jin Beilin was the first to respond, and the other high-ranking officials echoed his sentiments. The entire conference room was filled with approval and support for Li Yi's decision.
…………
Three days later, the results of the "Model Fund Investor" selection were officially announced, and a group of outstanding grassroots members stood out and became the focus of attention.
A grand award ceremony was held at the Spark Base, with colorful flags fluttering throughout the square, creating a lively and extraordinary atmosphere.
Hundreds of thousands of investors gathered in the central square of the base. The extremely cold weather at the Fire Seed Base did not dampen their enthusiasm in the slightest; on the contrary, everyone was filled with excitement, hoping to have the honor of becoming one of the "model investors."
After all, this was the first time in all their years of working like beasts of burden at the Fire Seed Base that they had the opportunity to earn such high honors and substantial rewards through their own efforts.
At the very center of the square stands a massive ice sculpture, 100 meters tall, majestic and lifelike, depicting the heroic figure of Li Yi, the leader of the base.
This is the spiritual leader of everyone at the Fire Seed Base. His gaze is deep and unwavering, as if it can pierce through the cold wind and look directly into the hearts of every member.
Every line of the ice sculpture embodies the hard work of the craftsmen and symbolizes Li Yi's endless dedication and expectations for the Fire Seed Base.
Although the members of the Fire Seed Base could see the giant statue from afar every day, they still felt a sense of sadness and tears welled up in their eyes as they gathered in the square and looked at it.
Their leader is truly great.
In this apocalyptic, extremely cold disaster that struck, and human civilization was on the verge of collapse, it was their leader, Li Yi, who, with extraordinary wisdom and unwavering determination, turned the tide and established this thriving survivor base.
They have survived to this day in these end times entirely thanks to the wise leadership of their leader.
Their leader not only has the world in his heart and devotes himself to the future of human civilization, but also cares deeply about them, the grassroots members, and often pays attention to their living conditions, worrying about them a lot.
For example, a while ago, some of the lower-level managers in the base, in order to curry favor with themselves and to climb the ranks, forced the lower-level staff to work overtime to complete tasks that were impossible to complete.
At that time, the lower-level base members were full of complaints, and the atmosphere in the entire base was so oppressive that it was hard to breathe.
However, all of this was seen and remembered by the leader, Li Yi.
He did not choose to turn a blind eye, nor did he condone evil.
Although the base's work performance improved significantly during that period, even by several times.
But in order to ensure that the grassroots investors have reasonable rest time and a high quality of life.
Leader Li Yi acted decisively and severely stopped this behavior of exploiting the grassroots and disregarding the lives of the grassroots members.
Furthermore, they strictly set the working hours at 14 hours a day. What courage and humanistic care that is this!
And isn't this "model fund investor" selection also a perk given to them by the leader?
If you think about it carefully, they were at the Fire Base, exchanging labor for food and shelter. The more they worked each day, the more food they received, which was quite fair.
