Today's group meeting is also a year-end summary and final push meeting.
Surprisingly, apart from "Jiang's Investment", all of the group's subsidiaries have achieved profitability this year.
As of yesterday, November 13, the total pre-tax net profit of all subsidiaries of the "Jiang's Group" except "Jiang's Investment" was 4.2 billion yuan.
Jiang Xiaoli stood up and led the applause. She said, "Although the vast majority of this figure comes from 'Jiang Li Ji,' most of our group's companies have achieved profitability ahead of schedule, which surprises me greatly."
This year's profits are just the beginning. I hope that in the upcoming year of 1998, everyone here can work together to achieve even better results.
Everyone knows that the senior management of "Jiang Li Ji" have profit-sharing rights, and you all have the same opportunity. I hope everyone will work hard, and the group will grow together with you!
After the group meeting, Jiang Xiaoli and Li Anting met with the heads of each subsidiary in turn.
As lunchtime approached, Dafu, who was the last person to speak, pushed open the door and came in. "Chairman Jiang, General Manager Li, shall we eat and chat?"
Jiang Xiaoli stood up and stretched her neck and shoulders. "I've been relaxing for less than a month, and I can barely keep up after just one morning of meetings. People really do get lazy."
Li Anting laughed and said, "Chairman Jiang, you're joking. You have a huge advantage just in terms of age."
"Hahaha!" Dafu laughed out loud. "Little Pear, what President Li said is absolutely right!"
She shrugged. "Two to one, you have more people, so you're right. Let's go eat."
Upon arriving at the cafeteria on the basement level, Jiang Xiaoli noticed a significant increase in the number of diners compared to before.
After they sat down in the private room, she asked, "Are there this many people eating in the cafeteria every day now?"
Li Anting nodded. "In the past, the number of company visitors in our 'Jiang's Building' was relatively small. Now, the development speed of each company is very rapid, and all kinds of cooperation are as numerous as hairs on a cow."
Aside from a few high-end business collaborations, almost everyone else opted for the cafeteria. At the beginning of the month, I had five new food stalls opened just to barely keep things afloat.
Dafu complained, "Little Pear, especially President Qiao's side, we have to deal with countless groups of fans of the artists every day. They've started using our staff canteen as a record point."
Li Anting could only smile wryly at this, saying, "The attention given to celebrities is a double-edged sword."
Jiang Xiaoli nodded, "That's right."
She thought for a moment and said, "I want to emphasize to Qiao Ru that we need to prioritize the ethical training of all artists signed to 'Jiang's Entertainment.' Adhering to the law is everyone's bottom line, and as public figures, they need to cultivate a positive and uplifting image."
Li Anting was well aware of the impact negative news could have on a company.
She nodded in agreement, "Don't worry, I will be careful."
Dafu spoke up at the right moment, "Little Pear, President Li, the old Xijing factory area needs to be relocated before June 30th next year. We don't have much time left."
Jiang Xiaoli frowned. "Seven and a half months, including the Spring Festival holiday, is too tight for building a new factory. Do you have any good suggestions?"
Dafu replied, "Our only remaining option is to buy existing factory buildings. Our current two factories are in Xi'an and Kyoto respectively. To better plan our operations and facilitate nationwide transportation, I've tentatively decided on Chengdu and Changsha, both of which have suitable locations for 'Jiang Li Ji' branch factories."
Li Anting added, "Personally, I'm more optimistic about Chengdu. Xingcheng is very close to Jiang's Foods in Tancheng, and I think setting up another factory in Xingcheng would be a waste of resources."
Jiang Xiaoli looked through the factory buildings in the two places and said, "Let's go with Rongcheng. The two factories in Xingcheng are too small, not much bigger than the old factory area in Xijing."
Once we relocate, the new factory will absolutely not focus on spicy strips as its main product; the product lines of each branch factory must be balanced!
Seeing that she had made a decision, Dafu said, "Okay, I understand. I'll go to Chengdu next week to check out the factory."
She patiently advised, "Brother Dafu, relocation is a big deal. The old Jiang Li Ji factory area is our root. Many of our employees have been with us since we started our stall."
Respect their personal wishes. Those who wish to go to the new factory will receive better compensation; others can choose to go to the Xijing No. 2 factory or receive severance pay and resign.
Dafu nodded. "Don't worry about that. Director Ming has already written several versions of the plan. I'll show them to you when he submits them."
The three of them chatted and ate, and their lunch lasted for more than an hour.
After leaving the private room, Jiang Xiaoli got another meal and went to "Yujia Technology".
For some time, "Yujia Technology" was in a state of leaderlessness. Zong Jia, the key figure, was not there, and Zhong Yuan, the chief steward, could only work remotely from Shanghai.
Fortunately, "Yu-Chia Technology" had a solid foundation, so things didn't fall into chaos.
However, the version update of "SOSO" has indeed been affected to some extent.
Jiang Xiaoli knocked on the office door, and a male voice came from inside, "Come in!"
Upon seeing that it was her, Zong Jia put down the injured items.
She patted the packed lunchbox and said, "I knew you hadn't eaten yet. Have something; it won't make a difference if you eat one more meal."
Zong Jia got up and went to the coffee table to eat, saying, "I have never missed Da Yuan so much."
Jiang Xiaoli chuckled, "It seems you're not used to not having Brother Yuan as your head butler."
“Yes.” Zong Jiayu took a sip of water. “When Da Yuan was around, I didn’t have to worry about anything except for technical issues, which I handled.”
"Hey, who's praising me behind my back?" A familiar male voice came from behind him, and Zhong Yuan walked into the office with a grin.
Jiang Xiaoli smiled and said, "Brother Yuan, aren't you and Xin Xin supposed to be back on Sunday?"
Zhong Yuan tossed his coat onto the sofa and sat down. "Auntie told us to come back first, two days earlier so it wouldn't be so rushed."
"So you just went home to drop something off and came straight to the company?"
"Of course!" Zhong Yuan's eyes crinkled with laughter. "If I didn't surprise you, how would I know you've been praising me behind my back?"
Zong Jia chuckled lightly, "You've praised me quite a bit to my face too."
“That’s different!” Zhong Yuan grabbed an apple and took a bite. “Tsk, Brother Zong, all the fruit in your office got stale while I was away!”
"Yes, yes, yes." Zong Jia packed up his lunchbox. "We urgently need Butler Zhong to return and take charge of the overall situation."
Zhong Yuan beamed with joy, "Haha, no problem, no problem!"
Jiang Xiaoli smiled and stood up. "Alright, you guys sort things out. I'm leaving now. The people from '307' downstairs are waiting for me!"
