Chapter 833 A 70 Million Yuan Bonus? The Golden Age for Drone Pilots! Sending Villagers to Work in Africa?
The Orange Technology new product launch is just around the corner, and the summer sun is gradually losing its scorching heat, becoming a bit softer.
In mid-June, prospective college students who had taken summer jobs at Mixue Ice Cream, Lucky Coffee, Orange Supermarket, and Kuaipao Canteen also finished their first jobs.
Inside a Kuai Pao Canteen next to Guanglan Road subway station in Shanghai.
Li Anan was hugging and saying goodbye to the two summer workers one by one, his face full of sincere smiles: "Come home and visit often when you have time."
"Thank you, Sister Annan. You should keep up the good work! If you have any questions you don't understand in the future, feel free to find me on Yunzhou."
"Sister Annan is so amazing, she'll definitely get into university in the future!"
The two summer workers responded with smiles.
Currently, Li Anan spends his days studying in front of the computer after get off work, starting with elementary school courses and planning to tackle middle and high school material later.
As long as she passes the group's internal assessment, she can enter Senlian University for further studies.
Even if you don't pass the exam, you can still go to Orange Vocational College and choose to study any major such as software engineering, electrical information, transportation, marine engineering, light industry, textiles, or construction.
After graduation, I will be able to get a better-paying job.
Other staff members serving food, cleaning staff, and the store manager in the canteen also came forward to offer their blessings to the two summer workers.
On the table to the side, there was a six-inch celebration cake.
Finally, store manager Ge Yuhang handed each of the two summer workers a bouquet of flowers, and everyone gathered together to cut the cake.
For these two summer workers, these two months have been the most enjoyable working time of their lives.
That's right!
It's supposed to be work, but it makes me feel incredibly comfortable.
I get off work from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. every day, with a two-hour break in between, but my salary is calculated based on an eight-hour workday.
In just over two months, I earned more than 5,000 yuan.
This amount of money may not seem like much, but for a college student about to start university, it represents more than three months' worth of living expenses.
Moreover, they have two days off per week during the work period, and even though the daily work is a bit boring, everyone is still full of enthusiasm.
The dining area floor is wiped until it shines every day before opening.
The tables, chairs, and benches were clean and tidy, making it hard to believe that this was just a chain fast food restaurant.
The hygiene conditions in the kitchen are extremely strict!
After all, Wang Zhe, the CEO of Kuaipao Canteen, had worked at Laoxiangji for many years and was very familiar with standardized management.
In fact, the control of hygiene, food quality and service in chain restaurants is not as complicated as imagined; otherwise, McDonald's and KFC would not be so popular all over the world.
The core issue is ultimately cost!
Chen Yansen's requirements for Kuai Pao Canteen are not demanding: as long as the net profit is guaranteed to be 5% and the food is of high quality, the canteen should provide customers with a comfortable dining environment as much as possible.
Profits exceeding expectations were primarily distributed to employees in the form of bonuses and profit sharing.
Even the cleaning staff in the store can earn more than 100,000 yuan after tax every year.
With higher incomes and stricter work rules, employees are more willing to work diligently.
After all, the better the cafeteria's business, the higher their share of the profits!
At the same time.
Liu Xinlei, Yang Fenghuang, and others, who are currently in France, have just completed a six-month advanced study program.
"Sister Xinlei, we can finally go back to Qingdao! I'll treat you to seafood feasts for three... no, for a whole week!"
Yang Fenghuang, who is 18 years old on her ID card but only 17 in reality, opened her right hand and said with a grin.
She knew better than anyone else that her success today was due to the opportunity given by the big boss, and also entirely thanks to Liu Xinlei's care and guidance.
It's worth noting that Liu Xinlei is a top student majoring in fashion design at Jiangsu University of Science and Technology. She has a solid foundation and is extremely patient, which has helped her develop into a capable designer.
"I want to go back too. It's been so long since I've had cuttlefish dumplings and mackerel dumplings."
Liu Xinlei licked her lips, smiled gently, and a hint of joy flashed in her eyes.
Orange Garment sent ten designers to France for further study, covering all expenses including meals, accommodation, and tuition.
Of course, this opportunity comes at a cost that is hard for ordinary people to imagine.
Before going to France, they had intensively studied basic French for three months, but they still found it very difficult to attend classes.
Under the dual pressure of learning French and fashion design, everyone has lost a lot of weight.
Take Yang Fenghuang for example. Her baby fat has completely disappeared, her facial features have become more defined, and her appearance has become more and more radiant.
In addition, these ten designers were all previously best-selling designers at Orange Garment. Choosing to pursue further studies means giving up some of their workload, and their income will decrease accordingly.
This is a two-way selection process, unrelated to foresight or superiority; it's simply a matter of different people having different career plans.
Of the nearly twenty designers in the company who met the requirements for further education, only Yang Fenghuang, Liu Xinlei, and a few others were ultimately willing to spend six months improving their skills.
On the other side.
The third season of "Produce 101" has come to a successful conclusion, and a national tour will follow, which will be the first step to recoup some of the fan economy.
After the tour, the contestants will be assigned to different production teams based on their individual abilities, venturing into various fields such as short dramas, feature dramas, movies, and online variety shows.
Among them, Ge Shichen, a contracted artist with a cool and beautiful appearance and a tall figure, stood out and was selected by the company to go to Hollywood next month to participate in the movie "Venom".
Although it's a minor role, it's an enviable starting point for a newcomer.
This has made major art schools both envious and amazed!
Ge Shichen didn't sleep with the producer or the director, yet she still had incredible luck and went to Hollywood right after her debut.
Everyone knows that Orange Entertainment's artists have an ironclad rule: no drinking with clients, no sleeping with clients.
Some artists and directors have tried to break Mr. Chen's rules, but they were all eventually completely blacklisted by Orange Entertainment.
No matter how powerful you are, once you are blacklisted, none of the platforms under Senlian Group will provide you with any traffic or exposure, and you will eventually disappear from the industry.
Therefore, in the eyes of ordinary practitioners, Orange Entertainment is undoubtedly the most trustworthy brokerage company in China.
Even many Korean entertainers have started to consider developing their careers in China.
At that time, in 2015, the relationship between the two parties was in its honeymoon period.
Various concerts and film and television collaborations continue, and both sides also plan to establish a free trade zone in the Qilu region to further deepen economic exchanges.

On August 24, Yu Chengdong publicly showcased the Honor 7i for the first time at the Yanjing Consumer Electronics Expo.
This phone still features the Aurora Future OS system and a deep blue battery, and is equipped with the Yuguang S1 CMOS sensor independently developed by Tiangong Technology, as well as lens accessories provided by Xingyuan Technology.
Its most outrageous design feature is undoubtedly its 180-degree rotating camera.
With a gentle tap, the rear camera pops out, perfectly balancing rear-camera shooting and front-facing beauty selfie functions.
Combined with Orange Technology's AI beautification technology, this phone quickly won the hearts of female buyers upon its release.
The initial price of 1,899 yuan is highly competitive, and sales exceeded 100,000 units in just half a day after the pre-sale link went live.
This greatly displeased Wu Hongxin of Meitu, but he dared not easily provoke Huawei, so he could only secretly increase promotional efforts.
On top of their own budget-friendly models, they are giving away an orange power bank, which is equivalent to a price reduction of 99 yuan, in an attempt to block the Honor 7i.
Although they belong to the Orange Technology ecosystem, they are both mobile phone manufacturers, so healthy competition is inevitable.
At almost the same time, Musk launched the all-electric SUV Model X in New York, featuring a seven-seat layout.
The standard version with dual motor all-wheel drive has a range of 800 kilometers and is priced at US$119,000.
The top-of-the-line tri-motor all-wheel-drive version has a range of 1,500 kilometers and is priced at US$169,000.
Musk's plan is clear: to seize the market opportunity before Orange Motors launches its SUV model.
At 11:00 AM, The Paper broke a major news story: Mengjie Sponge's global sales have exceeded 10 billion yuan, and inventor Mengjie may receive a bonus of up to 50 million yuan.
Yunkun Aerospace has not responded to this, but Meng Jie's family is full of curiosity.
When he got home from get off work, his parents, wife, and children all surrounded him, their eyes full of curiosity.
"You can actually believe the news online?"
Meng Jie responded with a wry smile and a question in return.
"So how much will we get?" the father couldn't help but ask.
"Dividends are paid out quarterly. Last quarter's sales totaled 3.2 billion yuan. By the end of September, total sales are expected to reach 14 billion yuan, with dividends of approximately 70 million yuan."
Meng Jie did the calculations carefully.
70 million yuan is undoubtedly an astronomical figure for ordinary people.
But for Meng Jie, it was more like a string of numbers.
During his tenure at Yunkun Aerospace, the company rewarded him with an apartment and provided him with a car worth more than 2 million yuan.
There is a company cafeteria for meals, and there is a monthly meal allowance.
Even if you have already moved into the company-subsidized housing, the company will still provide a housing subsidy equal to 20% of your base salary.
Clothes can be purchased with shopping credits from the intranet store, and the company also regularly provides work uniforms, including everything from socks to underwear.
The child attends a primary school under Orange Education, and thanks to his status as a winner of the Senlian Technology Award, his tuition is waived.
With minimal daily expenses, this huge dividend didn't really affect him much.
Money only feels powerful when you spend it!
Upon hearing this, the family members gasped in surprise, feeling that the dividend was too high.
Little did anyone know that Chen Yansen's original intention was to make Meng Jie the "King of Hired Managers" in the scientific research field, in order to attract top talents from around the world to join him.
Although Chen Yansen is highly capable, he still needs a capable assistant during the research and development process.
He prefers talented and diligent intelligent people to ordinary people.
Just like Meng Jie's sponge, without Meng Jie's research, he would have had to personally handle the development of sound insulation materials for the rocket payload compartment.
In Chen Yansen's view, anyone who can reduce his workload and provide groundbreaking technical solutions should be richly rewarded.

Late August in Sichuan is the season for harvesting the Cui Guan pear.
Xiao Shengyu is a third-year student majoring in Electronic Information at the School of Virtual Education. He will be a senior after the start of the semester.
At this moment, he stood at the foot of the hillside, skillfully operating an Agras MG-1 agricultural plant protection drone, steadily transporting a basket of Cui Guan pears weighing more than 80 kilograms from the mountainside to the foot of the hill.
Along the roadside, protective foam, cardboard boxes, and tape were neatly arranged, and several workers were busy packing and sealing the packages, attaching express delivery labels one by one.
In two hours, a Yunsu Express delivery truck will pick up the goods and ship these freshly picked Cui Guan pears to consumers all over the country.
The six-rotor Agras MG-1 emitted a deep hum, like an obedient "iron bee," steadily lifting a fruit basket weighing over eighty kilograms and flying along the pre-set low-altitude route, skimming the pear treetops towards the loading point three hundred meters down the mountain.
"Height 12 meters, speed 8 meters per second, battery remaining 39%, can still handle a few more orders!"
Xiao Shengyu glanced at the live feed on the remote control and a smug smile crept onto his lips.
Two years ago at this time, he was still worried about his family's two acres of pear orchard.
The mountain is high and the road is steep. It takes more than half an hour to carry a basket of pears back and forth by hand. Along the way, the fruit is often broken or bruised, resulting in a loss of nearly 10% of the fruit in a day.
After starting school last September, he joined the school's drone training club and, after a year of hard work, became a highly skilled drone pilot.
After the Agras MG-1 was launched, Chen Yansen donated 200 new units to the Virtual Academy in his personal capacity, making Xiao Shengyu one of the earliest users of this drone.
Before summer vacation, he used his savings from part-time work as a drone pilot and borrowed 20,000 yuan from his parents to buy an Agras MG-1 drone and start an air transport business back home.
Just take the transportation of these Cui Guan pears as an example. The fee is 0.08 yuan per kilogram, and you can earn 12 to 13 yuan per trip.
The net profit for the day was nearly a thousand yuan!
He worked in his hometown for more than two months and earned back the money he spent on the Agras MG-1.
In the early stages of the industry's development, this was undoubtedly a highly profitable business.
"Sheng Yu, another flight?"
Down the hillside, Uncle Xiao Dafu, carrying an empty basket, shouted, his brow beaded with sweat.
"Uncle, you can rest now. We'll finish after a few more flights today."
Xiao Shengyu smiled and waved his hand, skillfully switching the drone to automatic queue mode.
Set ten waypoints at once, and the system will automatically return to home to recharge after completing the flight, completely freeing your hands.
Xiao Dafu watched as the "iron lump" steadily carried the fruit basket over his head, clicked his tongue in amazement, and exclaimed, "Who invented this thing?! It's damn useful, one trip is equivalent to three trips by me!"
Xiao Shengyu understood the underlying meaning in his uncle's words.
He single-handedly took on the work of almost dozens of people in the village.
He made a fortune, but many villagers who relied on odd jobs for a living earned several thousand yuan less this summer.
Thinking of this, Xiao Shengyu fell silent.
For fruit farmers, drone delivery has reduced costs by 40% and significantly increased profits.
But for the villagers who rely on physical labor, this undoubtedly cut off their livelihood.
"Uncle, actually, Brother Sen's company recruits planters all year round. They don't require diplomas or academic qualifications. As long as you know how to plant trees, know how to cultivate crops, and can manage crops, you'll be fine. They pay social security every month, and your take-home pay will be at least six thousand yuan."
Xiao Shengyu took the initiative to speak.
After entering university, his horizons broadened considerably, and he realized that it would be difficult to achieve great things in a remote mountain village.
Even though Pinbei has set up e-commerce training classes in the village to help fruit farmers open stores and sell goods via live streaming, only a few people actually benefit.
"You mean that richest man, Chen Yansen? All I know is farming. Would they really hire me? Six thousand yuan a month?"
Xiao Dafu looked on with suspicion.
"How about you gather everyone together tonight, and I'll help you make your resumes?"
Xiao Shengyu asked tentatively.
He clearly remembers that Orange Agriculture Technology, located in Abyssinia, was hiring a large number of people.
As for sending the uncles and aunts from the village to work in Africa, he didn't think there was anything wrong with it.
He considered the nonsense about "people being cheap when they leave their hometown" to be outdated ideas.
A tree dies when transplanted, but a person thrives!
Knowing there are better options, why not recommend them?
Moreover, after nearly a year of development, Abyssinia has seen continuous improvement in its security and infrastructure, reaching a top level in East Africa.
"OK!"
Xiao Dafu pondered for a moment, then nodded heavily.
These days, being broke is the worst thing! You don't even dare to speak too loudly!
