Chapter 643: 9 hours, 14 billion! Monitor, my cat can do somersaults, do you want to see it?
Luzhou is ablaze with neon lights late at night. A science and technology park in Baohe District is brightly lit at this moment, with the light tubes on the facade flickering. From a distance, it looks like a bunch of cubic night pearls.
Residents nearby would occasionally glance up as they passed by, sighing, "My God! Senlian Company hasn't closed yet? It's almost ten o'clock."
"The salary is high, and the requirements are high too!"
"My dears, if you don't understand the real situation, please stop talking nonsense, okay? There are more than a dozen buildings in total, and only five have lights on. Do you know why? Tonight is the 618 promotion, the e-commerce festival, do you understand?"
In fact, it is not just Pinbei that is working overtime tonight. Employees from platforms such as Yaomao, Dongfang, Dangdang, Gome and Suning are basically staying in the company, and no one dares to leave early.
Chen Yansen wanted to go home and sleep, but staying up late during big sales had long become a tradition at Pinbei. He wanted to cancel it, but his employees were unwilling to do so.
First, if you work overtime from 5:00 to 1:00 in the morning, a total of 8 hours, the overtime pay on weekdays is 1.5 times, and the overtime pay on weekends is 2 times;
To put it bluntly, everyone at Pinbei wants to earn some overtime pay.
All seemingly abnormal things must be supported by certain interests.
Second, the company will arrange barbecue, hot pot, and fried chicken dinners, and have fun from 6 pm to the early morning.
It’s called overtime, but it’s actually similar to team building.
Third, the "surprise easter egg" on the night of the big sale has long become an unspoken expectation of Pinbei employees.
Last year on Double Eleven, Chen Yansen directly drew 100 of the latest Orange mobile phones and 100 prizes of 10,000 yuan at the overtime site. Even the Sunshine Prize had a minimum prize of 1,000 yuan.
There is food and drinks, raffles, and overtime pay.
Who doesn’t like it?
There are dozens of dining tables on the open space on the first floor, with all kinds of food, beer, and milk tea on them.
The aroma of barbecue even drifted to the 27th floor where Chen Yansen was!
Chen Yansen put down his mouse and was just about to get up and go downstairs to have some midnight snack across the street when he heard a crisp knock on the door.
Whatever you think will come true!
"Come in!"
Chen Yansen leaned back in his chair and responded loudly.
Xu Xingxing walked in with a plate of steaming barbecue, smiling, "Squad Leader, why don't you go to Building 2?"
"Forget it. If I go over there, you'll become restrained, and the atmosphere will be uncomfortable, which won't be good."
As Chen Yansen spoke, he raised his hand and tapped the table, indicating Xu Xingxing to put the barbecue on the table.
In the past, there were only a few hundred people in Pinbei; now, there are almost nine thousand people in Pinbei.
Xu Xingxing put the barbecue plate on the table. The sizzling beef cubes were wrapped in crispy cumin seeds, and there were oysters, lamb skewers, squid rolls and prawns on the side.
"You simply don't want to go." Xu Xingxing pointed out directly.
She knew in her heart that Chen Yansen was the person in the company who hated working overtime the most. Even during the annual e-commerce promotion, he always wanted it to end early.
"You already know, but why are you asking? I think you need to hone your skills as a supervisor for a few more years. You have brains, but not much."
Chen Yansen cursed with a smile, then pointed to the water bar and motioned Xu Xingxing to get a few bottles of beer.
Xu Xingxing chuckled but did not refute.
Then she ran over quickly, and when she returned, she had four bottles of white beer in her hands.
"Sit down and have a drink with me."
Chen Yansen took out a bottle opener and opened two bottles of beer.
Upon hearing this, Xu Xingxing's eyes flashed with a hint of joy. He then quickly sat down and clinked glasses with Chen Yansen. "Squad Leader, the stock lock-up period is almost over. Many people are thinking of cashing out some of the money and using it to buy houses and cars. Is this the right time?"
"People have different feelings about garages and houses at different ages. The sooner you sell, the sooner you can enjoy it."
Chen Yansen picked up a beef skewer and said lightly.
Just like the four-wheel drive racing cars in childhood, every boy wants to own a set of Audi Double Diamond rechargeable battery kit.
But when the boy grows into a man, no matter how many four-wheel drive racing cars and charging kits he has, it is difficult to feel the same happiness as before.
Picking flowers in the morning and picking them up in the evening is ultimately just like looking for a sword on a boat.
"Captain, won't you be angry? If competitors seize on this and make a fuss, saying Pinbei employees have no confidence in the development of their platform, it will probably affect the company's stock price, right?"
Xu Xingxing blinked and asked with some curiosity.
“How many stocks do you have?”
Chen Yansen scoffed and said nonchalantly, "Together, it's less than a fraction of what the institutions hold. If the stock price is really going to be affected, it won't be your share."
He initially implemented the employee stock ownership policy mainly to allow employees to share in the dividends of the company's development, rather than tying people to the moral shackles of "must hold for the long term."
What's more, he can only get additional humanitarian compensation if his employees sell their stocks.
"I think it's quite a lot." Xu Xingxing said in a low voice.
"If you don't need the money, keep it."
Chen Yansen reminded.
With Huang Zheng's ability, coupled with the resources of Senlian Capital and Penguin Capital, is Pinbei's market value capped at US$190 billion?
Obviously not!
Xu Xingxing hummed, opened her little mouth and took a bite of the shrimp.
“Bang!”
The crisp sound of clinking glasses rang out in the room one after another.
In a short while, the barbecue on the plate was gone and the beer on the table was drunk up.
"Squad leader, do you want more?" Xu Xingxing asked.
"No need." Chen Yansen waved his hand.
Xu Xingxing nodded, put the beer bottle and barbecue plate into the bag, and then busied himself wiping a few drops of oil stains on the table.
Chen Yansen stood up and walked to the floor-to-ceiling window, looking at Building No. 2 opposite.
In addition to Pinbei, some employees of Orange Pay and Douyin are also working overtime.
"Squad leader, I'm going back now. Will you come over at midnight?"
Xu Xingxing asked softly while holding the bag.
"I can't go over there. Talk to Old Huang and ask him to be in charge of the lottery."
Chen Yansen looked at his watch and prepared to leave work.
Master Ye bought him a set of Slow Sheep Cosplay costume. As a boss, he couldn't let his subordinates down.
Xu Xingxing took a step forward towards Chen Yansen's position.
"Anything else?"
Chen Yansen raised his eyebrows and turned to look at Xu Xingxing. The tips of his ears were pink and he looked like he wanted to say something but didn't know what to say.
"No, no." Xu Xingxing shook her head and grinned, revealing a row of fine teeth, with a slightly embarrassed look on her face.
After saying that, he was about to push the door and leave.
"Help me get a bottle of mango juice." Chen Yansen leaned back and said on the sofa.
"Oh." Xu Xingxing put the bag at the door, turned around and walked to the water bar, took a bottle of mango juice from the freezer, and put it on the coffee table.
Chen Yansen unscrewed the can and took a sip. Looking at Xu Xingxing who hadn't left yet, he said slowly, "Did you hear that plop-plop sound?"
"No." Xu Xingxing's face turned red, and she didn't dare to look Chen Yansen in the eye out of guilt.
She still overestimated her courage. All she could hear in her head was the sound of her heart beating, and she immediately planned to turn around and leave.
But as soon as she took a step, someone grabbed her right hand.
"I have a luminous watch here, would you like to see it?"
Chen Yansen looked down at Xu Xingxing and asked.
"Are you lying to a child?" Xu Xingxing said with a red face.
"You are indeed a little small." Chen Yansen commented.
Xu Xingxing stared at Chen Yansen, who was so close to him, and asked angrily, "Where is it small?"
Chen Yansen jokingly said: "Maybe I remembered it wrong."
Xu Xingxing stood on tiptoe and bit Chen Yansen's lips, the action was exactly the same as four years ago. He seemed experienced, but in fact he was biting randomly without any method.
Two hours later, time quietly passed twelve o'clock and the 618 promotion began.
Xu Xingxing was lying on the sofa, her fair cheeks flushed and a layer of fine beads of sweat seeped out of her forehead.
"Squad leader, I..." Xu Xingxing lowered his head and murmured softly.
"Shall I ask the driver to take you home?" Chen Yansen suggested.
To Mr. Chen, it was just a midnight snack.
"Squad leader, my cat can do somersaults. Do you want to see it?" Xu Xingxing asked while biting her lip and breathing rapidly.
"Next time." Chen Yansen refused.
He hadn't experienced the joy of Slow Sheep yet, so he had no interest in watching a somersaulting kitten.
He raised his hand and ruffled Xu Xingxing's hair, and said gently, "It's too late, go back and rest early."
A trace of loss flashed through Xu Xingxing's heart, but also a little relief. She endured the pain in her legs, put on her clothes, and limped out.
"Rest in my office tonight."
Although Chen Yansen is a scumbag, he is not a beast. Seeing that Xu Xingxing had difficulty walking, he arranged her to live in the office lounge.
"What about you?" Xu Xingxing asked softly with his eyes lowered.
"I have to go home, otherwise my mother will be worried."
Chen Yansen is talking nonsense.
After giving a few instructions, he walked out of the office without looking back.
…
…
At nine o'clock the next morning, Pinbei's daily transaction volume exceeded 14 billion.
Liu Qiangdong and Li Guoqing are still shouting hard in the live broadcast room!
Hundreds of top anchors from Douyin and Kuaishou, as well as thousands of mid-level anchors, are also forcing themselves to stay strong and not let go of the opportunity to make money.
Some people live-streamed until 1 a.m. last night and continued at 8 a.m. It's really true that live-streaming sales are so profitable.
Big anchors earn commissions, tens of millions a night;
Small anchors earn slot fees, and with hundreds of products, they can earn hundreds of thousands including commissions.
During this 618 promotion, Pinbei took the lead throughout the whole process. Relying on the shopping guide services of Douyin and Kuaishou, it exceeded the performance level of the same period last year in just 9 hours.
Colleagues from the data department had dark circles under their eyes, and their voices were filled with uncontrollable excitement when they gave reports in the conference room.
