"I do have an idea!" Lin Yanbai's clear voice broke the silence in the room. He paused for a moment, attracting the attention of everyone, including the factory director, before continuing:
"I conducted a questionnaire survey among some workers over the past two days. The results showed that there are two main reasons why the workers are not actively participating. One is that they are shy and would rather sit in the audience than perform on stage.
Another thing I learned is that they think the programs are the same every year, and they are tired of it and don’t want to perform those same old shows anymore!
That's right, a must-have skill for anyone in the workplace: to immediately point out the problem you've discovered and grab everyone's attention. Seeing Director Zhang, who was sitting in the main seat, looking interested, this wave of output was stable.
"I think to make this gala a success, we have to fundamentally address these two issues. First, we can allocate a portion of the gala funds specifically for the purchase of prizes and certificates. We can set up individual and group awards, and rank the performances based on their brilliance. Finally, the factory director and his team will decide on the best performance and personally present a mysterious grand prize to stimulate their participation."
In addition, as for the problem of the program being outdated and lacking in originality, this year we can give them a holistic approach!"
"Yan Bai, what's your idea? Tell us in detail!" asked enthusiastic citizen Ms. Chen.
"In previous years, our gala always featured twelve programs. We can make a list of twelve specific programs for everyone to choose from, and the departments that register first will have priority. This way, as long as we spread the word, other departments will be afraid that their good programs will be snatched up. Plus, with the allure of a mysterious grand prize, everyone will definitely sign up enthusiastically!"
Lin Yanbai said with some embarrassment: "It's just that our comrades in the Propaganda Department need to do more preparation!"
"What a good idea! It's true that you young people have very smart brains! Director, I think Yan Bai's idea is good. It's much easier to organize the program list than to mobilize the masses!" Chen Zhaodi looked at the director.
Director Zhang pondered for a moment, seemingly considering the feasibility of this matter. After a long while, he looked at Lin Yanbai and said, "Okay, let's do it this way. In the next two days, you will organize the program first, and then go to various departments to promote it. Chen Zhaodi and Lin Yanbai will be in charge of this matter!"
After the meeting, when Lin Yanbai was about to go out, a man suddenly rushed up from behind, pushed her away forcefully, and walked away. Looking at Zeng Yue's aggressive back in front of her, Lin Yanbai was a little puzzled.
"It seems that Zeng Yue is really angry this time!" Lin Yanbai looked in the direction of the voice and saw that the person who spoke was Xu Jiaqi, another seconded student in the department. This girl had always disliked Zeng Yue.
"Zeng Yue was in the same class with me in high school. She was very arrogant back then and looked down on everyone. But this time she suffered a big setback at your hands! Well done!" Xu Jiaqi secretly winked at her with his left eye.
Lin Yanbai shrugged and said, "Don't try to guess what the little girl is thinking!"
Regardless of Zeng Yue's reaction, the Propaganda Department began to prepare the program intensively in the next few days.
In addition to the classic chorus and recitation, sketches, three-line verses, situational dramas, etc. were also added. After everyone's discussion, the first draft of the program was finally finalized. The subsequent improvement of the program depends on the specific arrangements of each department.
After getting Director Zhang's approval, Lin Yanbai and Chen Zhaodi took the program to promote their department. Their first stop was Lin Yanbai's "old department" - the spinning department. After all, it's easier to talk to people you know!
Sure enough, Li Cuilan and the comrades in the spinning department expressed a warm welcome to their arrival. Lin Yanbai believed that in addition to her face, the existence of the blackboard newspaper may have also contributed to it.
Lin Yanbai, the Big Liar, said mysteriously, "Comrades, although I'm here today on behalf of the Propaganda Department, I, Lin Yanbai, will never forget our family in the Spinning Department! So, when something good happens, the first person I think of is our Spinning Department!"
At this point, Lin Yanbai kept the audience in suspense. After everyone had their full attention, she slowly said, "Isn't there a National Day party in the factory in a couple of days? This time, each department will have to come up with two performances."
Li Cuilan was puzzled and asked, "Yan Bai, you've made me confused. Isn't this party held every year? How can this be considered a good thing?"
"Yeah, Yan Bai, how can this be considered good news? The annual party is so boring, and I have to perform on stage. It's so annoying!"
Listening to everyone's complaints, Lin Yanbai smiled slightly and said, "That was originally the case, but there have been new changes this year. Our publicity department knows everyone's difficulties, so we have specially selected a dozen programs for everyone to choose from.
Let me tell you all a secret: the factory manager and his team will also be at this party. There are also prizes for this party. As long as you perform well, you can get exclusive prizes, and you will also have the chance to win a mysterious gift package personally sent by the factory manager!
Lin Yan calmly dropped one bombshell after another, then continued to persuade him, "Here's what I think. We have to go on stage eventually anyway, so we might as well take advantage of this opportunity and choose a good program first."
As she spoke, she moved closer to Li Cuilan and said, "Director, don't say I wasn't thinking about our spinning department. I was the first one to come to our department when the program list came out, just to give you priority in choosing. The factory director will be presenting the awards, and this is a great opportunity to show off in front of the factory!"
Listening to Lin Yanbai's whisper, Li Cuilan's eyes flashed. She glanced at Chen Zhaodi beside her and said, "Okay, let's do it! Yanbai, you care so much about me and our department. I can't let you down!"
"Okay, sister, we'll have a promotional meeting this afternoon, and you can be the first to raise your hand and choose the program!"
After reaching an agreement, Lin Yanbai and Chen Zhaodi went to the Security Department and the Materials Department again. These were the departments where Lin Qingfeng and Liu Mei were located. Lin Yanbai made another long speech and successfully persuaded the heads of the two departments.
After coming out of the Materials Department, Chen Zhaodi watched Lin Yanbai slowly walk towards the Propaganda Department: "Yanbai, you must have taken the wrong path! That's the way back."
"That's right, sister. As for mobilization, three departments are enough. People generally follow the crowd. At the conference, these three departments took the lead and chose first. Other departments are afraid that the good programs will be chosen first, so they will naturally participate actively! Next, we can just focus on preparing for the promotion meeting."
"Hey, Yan Bai, what's wrong with your brain? Compared with you, my brain is like rusty. It's you young people who have to do it!" Chen Zhaodi said with sudden enlightenment.
As Lin Yanbai expected, at the conference, other departments saw these three departments scrambling to select programs. Seeing that the programs were getting fewer and fewer, other departments also became anxious. After a while, the task of this conference was successfully completed, both efficiently and quickly.
