Chapter 633 With more employees, the year-end bonus will naturally be more.
There are five or six hundred employees who come to the small fishing village to go beachcombing, but there is only one purchasing station in the village.
Even with the entire Bai family working together, splitting into three teams to harvest simultaneously, it still took them nearly an hour to finish collecting everyone's harvest.
By the time all the staff arrived at the hotel, it was already past midnight, a little later than Bai Yu had anticipated.
There's nothing we can do about it; it's a high tide day, and everyone's haul from beachcombing is pretty good, so naturally, it takes more time to sell the goods.
Bai Yu didn't earn much money from his beachcombing trip today, only a few hundred yuan. It wasn't that Bai Yu was unlucky, but rather that he kept most of his catch.
For example, the few small green dragons and the large green crabs he caught were all good stuff.
Especially that super big blue crab, weighing a full three pounds and six ounces, and it was a female crab.
If Bai Yu really wanted to make money, this one big blue crab could easily fetch several hundred yuan.
If sold directly to some large hotels, the price could easily reach four figures.
After all, mud crabs of this size are extremely rare, especially female crabs with full roe; the price must go up.
However, Bai Yu was not short of money. He organized his employees to go beachcombing not simply to make money, but to have fun together.
That's why Bai Yu kept all these things; he planned to keep them at home for a while and then have his family eat them during the Lunar New Year.
With everyone present at the hotel, lunch for the annual meeting officially began.
In order to accommodate five or six hundred employees at the same time, the company's logistics department put a lot of thought into finding a huge banquet hall.
What the company's logistics department didn't expect was that the banquet hall they had been searching for was ultimately Uncle Sun's hotel.
It wasn't a hotel near their company, but another hotel owned by Uncle Sun. This hotel had a huge banquet hall that could easily fit 100 tables, let alone 50 or 60.
This banquet hall also has a stage and a large screen, clearly designed for weddings or other banquets.
And now on this stage, there are also two tables, one on the left and one on the right.
These two tables are different from the dining table below. Both of these tables are covered with a red cloth, and there are things placed on them, piled high, like a tower on top.
With everyone present, Li Shuang walked onto the stage. Without any preamble, he waved his hand and announced, "Serve the food!"
After he finished speaking, he stepped off the stage and sat down at the table closest to the stage, in the very center.
The annual meeting should be a time for eating, drinking, and having fun. There's no need for speeches before the meal, especially since Bai Yu and the others had been out at sea all morning and were really hungry.
So even though Li Shuang had a lot to say, she didn't want to say anything more at this moment and directly asked the hotel to start serving the dishes.
The banquet arranged by the logistics department has a budget of 1688 per table, without drinks. It's not that drinks are not included, but rather that Bai Yu set a rule that eating is allowed, but drinking is not.
The main reason is that Bai Yu doesn't want to drink. As long as he doesn't serve alcohol to his employees, no one will come to toast him.
The thought of coming up with such a brilliant idea made Bai Yu want to laugh; he was truly amazing.
Besides, most of their company's employees are young people, and there are really not many alcoholics among them, not to mention those who are addicted to alcohol. There isn't a single one.
So even though Bai Yu didn't prepare any alcoholic beverages, only soft drinks, no one present complained.
The mealtime was quick, mainly because the dishes were served quickly. In about an hour, everyone had almost finished eating.
Next came the segment where employees could showcase their talents. A total of thirty performances were prepared for this segment, and anyone in the company with even a little talent was eager to sign up. In the end, after a selection process, only thirty performances were chosen.
Why is it that when employees of other companies avoid performing at their annual party, it becomes a good thing, and everyone rushes to sign up?
The answer is actually quite simple: Bai Yu's company gave them too much.
Anyone who signs up for the performance and is successfully selected will receive a rehearsal subsidy of 2,000 yuan, while their salary and bonuses will still be paid in full.
In addition, the performance will be judged by audience votes, with prizes ranging from 1,000 to 30,000 yuan, ranked from highest to lowest.
For today's workers, as long as you can pay them enough, they can bring you sufficient benefits.
The more money you give them, the more motivated they will be. You don't need to urge them; they will work proactively and strive for the company's profits.
After all, they were genuinely afraid that if they slack off, the company would go bankrupt, and then it would be hard to find a job with such good pay.
Bai Yu's company is like that; they never work overtime. As long as the work is completed, you can leave on time.
Forced overtime? No way. Employees are paid overtime. Not paying overtime is illegal. There's really no need for that.
Therefore, the atmosphere in Bai Yu's company has always been very good. Everyone actively participates in any activities without needing to be urged or forced to sign up.
This talent show segment allowed Bai Yu to witness firsthand what it means to be a hidden master and to keep one's true abilities hidden.
It's worth noting that the companies currently holding their annual meetings primarily engage in live-streaming e-commerce, as well as other forms of live-streaming.
This year, in particular, their company has expanded into entertainment live streaming projects, opening karaoke rooms on Douyin and Kuaishou, and some of the streamers were attracted to join the company.
Even under these circumstances, only twelve of the thirty performance slots were taken by the live streamers, while the remaining eighteen were taken by other employees of the company.
Even the program that won the 30,000 yuan prize wasn't won by a talented live streamer, but by a guy from the post-production department.
This guy is really awesome. He's clearly a tech geek, but he can actually do pole dancing, and when he takes off his clothes, he has a muscular physique that immediately drew gasps from the audience.
It's worth noting that Bai Yu's company has a much larger number of female employees than male employees. Under the allure of this pole dance, the young man naturally won the 30,000 yuan prize.
Bai Yu also knew this guy. He was the head of a group in the post-production editing department. He was a prominent figure at Ocean University and was a member of the school's dance club.
It's hard to imagine that someone with technical skills would be even more amazing at dancing, especially pole dancing; the contrast is just too great.
After all thirty performances were completed, it was time for the much-anticipated money distribution segment.
Right after the show ended, Bai Yue and Li Shuang came onto the stage.
This time they had something to say. First, as is customary, they thanked the company's management, including bosses Bai Yu and Wang Hai, who hadn't done anything all year.
Of course, the management team only mentioned it briefly, finishing in just a few sentences.
The entire speech lasted five minutes. One minute was spent talking about the company and flattering the leaders, and the remaining four minutes were spent announcing the company's outstanding employees.
This isn't just a matter of reading it out; every employee whose name is called out will receive a bonus, with the amount varying depending on their performance, ranging from a minimum of 10,000 to a maximum of 100,000.
In short, the main theme of today's annual meeting is just one thing: giving money, giving money, and more giving money.
After everyone's outstanding employees were read out, Li Shuang and Bai Yue each stood next to a table and unveiled the tower covered by the red cloth.
As the red cloth was untied, a cash tower made of RMB appeared before everyone's eyes.
"Colleagues, tell me, when you see these two mountains of money, are you happy or not!"
"Happy!"
"The boss is so generous!"
"Boss, I love you!"
As Li Shuang asked his question loudly, all the employees present gave him the most enthusiastic response.
If anyone saw this scene, who could remain calm?
Especially for all the employees present, these two mountains of money represented their year-end bonuses. The more money these two mountains of money represented, the more money they would receive.
Do you think they should be excited?
Putting everything else aside, once they receive their year-end bonuses, they're sure to have a very, very prosperous year ahead of them.
"Dear family members, we won't go into the details of how much profit you have brought to the company this year and how much money you have made for the company."
Anyway, you've made contributions to the company, so the company has nothing to say. These two mountains of money are the best answer!
Let's cut to the chase and get straight to the money. Today, all 200 million yuan in year-end bonuses will be distributed. But there's one thing you all need to remember: everyone who receives a year-end bonus must file their taxes on time!
"Now, family members whose names we hear, please come up and collect your money."
After Bai Yue's voices quieted down, she said a few words and then announced that the money distribution had officially begun.
At that moment, a group of people in uniforms walked in. Their attire was quite varied; some wore formal wear, while others wore bulletproof vests and carried shotguns.
Whether the gun was real or fake, the employees present remained unusually calm. This wasn't the first time they'd seen such a scene, and they were all used to it.
The people who came were bank staff and security personnel from a security company. Apart from these people who just came up, there were several security personnel standing by the stage from the beginning, but no one noticed them at first.
These people arrived and didn't waste any time. They set up a few tables, and then prepared computers, a money counter, and boxes for packing, and immediately started working.
This is what's happening offstage. The stage is just as lively. Three finance department staff members from the company are distributing bonuses, and there are other staff members assisting.
Although many people seemed to be busy, there was no sign of panic at the scene, and everything was proceeding in an orderly manner.
After all, this is a big deal – it's everyone's year-end bonus. Even if someone is a little restless, the others at the same table will remind them to stay calm.
So overall everything went very smoothly, and there were no unexpected events throughout the process.
As more and more people went up to collect their money, the two mountains of money on the table were visibly decreasing, becoming fewer and fewer.
What Bai Yu didn't expect was that he, who was originally just a bystander, would hear his own name at the last moment.
"Bai Yu, please come up to the stage to receive your award."
At first, Bai Yu thought he had misheard, or that there was a name that sounded similar to his, so he didn't plan to go on stage to collect the money.
It wasn't until Li Shuang came to him that he realized he was actually entitled to the year-end bonus.
"Brother Yu, your name has been called. Hurry up and go collect your money. It's time for the year-end bonus."
"What do you mean? I get a year-end bonus? I haven't done anything all year, and I still get paid?"
Even so, Bai Yu still stood up with Li Shuang, walked onto the stage, and signed her name on her year-end bonus slip.
He not only received a year-end bonus, but the amount was also quite substantial, amounting to as much as 500,000 yuan.
The reason for awarding him the 500,000 yuan year-end bonus was quite reasonable, considering that although he hadn't worked that year, he was famous.
He trended on social media many times that year, and every time Bai Yu trended, Yu Xue Company would get exposure and generate a lot of revenue.
That's why he received this 500,000 yuan year-end bonus.
