After typing away for three thousand words, Lin Chen finally finished the Xiaomi Home project proposal and stretched.
Sure enough, work helps me calm down, and now I have no distractions.
Then, Lin Chen saw An Rou walk out of the bathroom wearing a super short JK uniform.
Lin Chen said, "I just wanted to check the quality of this JK uniform. I had absolutely no other intentions. Well, I guess you could say I was single-minded."
Then, after a night of research, Lin Chen looked at the torn JK uniform on the ground and said, "The quality is really bad. But if this thing is made too sturdy, does it lose its original purpose?"
This is truly a philosophical question.
The next day, Lin Chen and An Rou didn't get up until noon.
After having a meal downstairs, Lin Chen sent a message to Wang Sicong and then flew back to Shanghai. He still had some things to take care of at the company, and then he could prepare to send money home for the Chinese New Year.
After returning to the company, Zhang Yiming went to Lin Chen's office to report on his work.
"President Lin, Jack Ma's move was truly a stroke of genius. He changed the name of Koubei.com, and it's like it's been brought back to life. Everyone in the industry is saying that Jack Ma must have consulted a master."
"Ahem, Mr. Zhang, we are staunch materialists, we can't promote such unhealthy ideas."
"I didn't realize you were so insightful, Mr. Lin."
"What's so hard to tell? My ideological and political awareness is definitely the highest in our company. Do you know why?"
"Why?"
"Because it's the end of the year, and I'm about to give everyone their year-end bonuses, do you think my political awareness is high or low?"
"Brilliant! Absolutely brilliant! Boss, you're the best!"
"Alright, keep it low-key. Let me tell you about the current situation on Koubei.com... oh no, I mean Taobao Group Buying."
"Taobao's group-buying platform has recently poached many merchants from Lashou.com, seizing a lot of Lashou.com's market share. It's like Jack Ma has a grudge against Wu Bo, and he's been targeting Lashou.com, putting Lashou.com in a very passive position."
Lin Chen thought to himself, "Isn't that because of a grudge? If it weren't for Wu Bo, would Ma Yun have been swindled out of money by me time and time again? Sorry, Brother Wu Bo, but the money is practically handed to me, so it would be impolite of me not to accept it."
"What about market share?"
"Currently, Meituan is still number one, with about 40% of the market share. Lashou is number two, with 35% of the market share a few days ago. But Taobao Group Buying has taken it down to 32%. Taobao Group Buying is number three, with 20% of the market share. The remaining 8% is firmly held by those smaller websites."
"Yes, the three giants have already taken over 90% of the market, which is basically their limit. The smaller websites also have their own ways of surviving. It seems that the final battle is coming soon. Judging from the current situation, whoever can take over one of them first will have more than 50% of the market share and become the undisputed number one group-buying platform."
"So, who should we eat first?" Zhang Yiming asked eagerly.
"Why should I make the first move? I'm the first one, why should I rush? I'll wait for them to start fighting first, and then I'll come out and pick up the pieces," Lin Chen said matter-of-factly.
"Oh... Lin Chen, you're really quick-witted."
"Thank you for the compliment. By the way, did Xiao Wan come to the company today?"
"Here you are. I saw Director Su this morning."
Lin Chen nodded and picked up the landline on the table to call Su Xiaowan.
"Xiao Wan, come to my office for a short meeting."
Then, Lin Chen called An Rou and asked her to come over as well.
After the two women arrived, along with Zhang Yiming who was still in the office, the year-end bonus discussion meeting of Xingchen Technology was officially launched.
Lin Chen spoke first: "My initial idea is that the vice president will receive 8 million, the director 5 million, the deputy director 3 million, the initial ordinary staff 500,000, and the ordinary staff who come later will receive between 500,000 and 200,000, which will be determined by the directors of each department."
"so much?!"
The first person to be shocked was Zhang Yiming. As someone who had started his own business, he knew the importance of every penny. Who would take so much profit to pay out year-end bonuses? How could they survive next year?
Lin Chen countered, "What? Not enough money?"
"Of course not, the company's net profit this year is estimated to reach one billion."
"With a net profit of one billion, isn't it normal to give tens of millions to employees as year-end bonuses? If you want the horse to run, you have to feed it the best feed, Mr. Zhang."
"Mr. Lin is right, I have learned a lot."
"Hmm, there are a few people who will receive special rewards this year, Xiao Wan, please make a note of them."
"OK."
"First and foremost, of course, is our hardest-working CEO, Mr. Zhang Yiming. Mr. Zhang can be considered the chief steward of Xingchen Technology. Let's give Mr. Zhang an extra million."
"Thank you, Mr. Lin. However, isn't the description of the Grand Eunuch a little inaccurate?"
"Don't worry about the details. The second one is Fatty. This year, he not only followed up on the Heytea Wanda project, but he also opened Meidi's store. You could say he made a great contribution. He deserves an extra million."
Everyone agreed on this point.
"The third one is Brother Dawei. Genshin Impact Prequel: Gods and Demons War and Genshin Impact which is still in development, these two games are of epoch-making significance. Brother Dawei has made great contributions. He deserves an extra million."
"These three employees will all receive the title of Outstanding Employee of the Year, which will be awarded at the annual meeting."
"Okay, I've written it all down." Su Xiaowan quickly wrote down everything Lin Chen had just said on the computer.
Lin Chen continued.
"There are rewards as well as punishments."
Lin Chen took a notebook out of the drawer, and Zhang Yiming suddenly had a bad feeling.
"This contains all the information about the punishments, including names, positions, reasons for punishment, and amounts of punishment. I won't disclose it here; just follow this."
Su Xiaowan curiously turned to the first page.
Zhang Yiming glanced at it quickly, and his face immediately darkened.
The first line reads:
"Zhang Yiming called me heartless and deducted 100,000 yuan from my year-end bonus!"
Zhang Yiming, if you don't take me to the club, I'll deduct 100,000 from your year-end bonus!
..."
When Lin Chen saw Su Xiaowan open the book, he quickly pressed it down.
"Ahem, this information needs to be kept confidential. You can read it by yourself when you get back."
"oh."
As Su Xiaowan answered, she glanced at Zhang Yiming. She had only glanced at the first page, and Zhang Yiming's extra one million reward was already gone. If every page was like that, then eight million...
