Rebirth 1990: I have three golden fingers

The New Year in Shanghai is a bit cold, but the sun rarely comes out this afternoon. The warm sun shines on the body and invades the skin, making people feel extremely comfortable and warm.

The employees of Xinghai Group had all finished the year-end closing work before getting off work in the morning. It was just past two o'clock. They gathered on the basketball court to bask in the sun, laugh and talk about work and life, waiting for the New Year's Eve at three o'clock in the afternoon. meeting.

The company held its first annual meeting, and employees were very curious about what the company's senior leaders would say.

After the annual meeting, there will be a New Year's Eve dinner and activities in the evening. I heard that there will be rich event prizes, and everyone is very curious about what prizes there will be.

The employees also found that many guests were coming, who were the company's suppliers and partners. At this time, they were sitting on the second floor of the cafeteria drinking tea and chatting. Some guests also came to the basketball court to bask in the sun and chat with familiar Xinghai Group employees. It is intended to deepen cooperation.

The annual meeting will be held on the first floor of the cafeteria.

The first floor of the cafeteria covers an area of ​​several thousand square meters. It was originally designed to cater for tens of thousands of employees. The dining tables were stacked together to accommodate 3,000 seats.

In the center of the canteen, a temporary sky-blue background wall was built that was more than ten meters long and three meters high. There was a line of words "Xinghai Group Co., Ltd." in the upper left corner, and in the middle of the background wall was a line of large words "Dreams set sail, and we will create greater glory again." , below this line there is a line of smaller words "1994 New Year Annual Meeting".

Speakers are placed on the left and right sides of the background wall, as well as in every corner of the canteen.

A row of ten tables was placed on the temporary stage. There were seat cards on the tables with the names of the senior executives who were sitting there. Fang Bai was in seat C, and the other senior executives were sitting on both sides. At this time, they had not entered the venue yet.

A total of nearly two hundred guests were invited to this annual meeting. It was approaching the time of the annual meeting, and the guests were arriving one after another.

On the court, a female reporter from Shanghai TV has been interviewing employees of Xinghai Group.

"This handsome guy seems to be in a good mood. Is there anything you can share?"

A young male employee who was being interviewed had a smile on his face. Seeing that the media reporter wanted to interview him, he quickly straightened his collar and pretended to have a serious expression, but still answered with some restraint: "The main thing is the company's year-end bonus. It’s a surprise.”

"Oh, what a surprise?"

"The year-end bonus is four months' salary. Most of my colleagues are like this. I thought it was only one month's salary. The company had good profits last year and was willing to give out the money."

"Wow, I'm so envious. How much money do you have?"

Surprise flashed through the smiling eyes of the media reporter. She heard that the employees of Xinghai Group had high wages, and if they were paid for another four months, it would be many times better than their unit. She was envious from the bottom of her heart.

And, of course, a little bit of jealousy.

"More than two thousand yuan, it's nothing to me. I'm just an ordinary worker. I heard that the engineers in the technical department received six-month year-end bonuses. Their salaries are already high, so they get even more." The employee being interviewed curled his lips and pretended to be disapproving, but he could not hide his inner joy.

"Congratulations! Thank you for your answer." After receiving a satisfactory answer, the media reporter turned to interview other employees and asked other questions, such as work experience and rewards, working hours, accommodation and other information that the outside world wanted to know.

The outside world is curious about Xinghai Group and wants to know what is so powerful about the boss of domestic private enterprises and what is the actual salary and welfare benefits of its employees.

The beautiful reporter suddenly spotted two beautiful ladies and walked over to say hello to the female employee wearing glasses: "This beauty, can you interview me? Nice to meet you!"

Suddenly interrupted by the interview, the female employee wearing glasses touched her glasses with a cold expression and casually said: "How happy are you?"

"Well……"

The beautiful reporter was caught off guard by the question and choked on the topic. If it were a reporter in later generations, this would probably not be the reaction.

Seeing the awkward atmosphere, her female colleague interrupted and said, "Sorry, my colleague spends all day in the laboratory studying machinery and doesn't like to communicate. You can interview me."

The beautiful reporter forced out a professional smile: "It's okay. May I ask how your company treats young employees when it comes to selecting management?"

"Well, those who are capable will be promoted, those who are mediocre will be given way, and those who are mediocre will be demoted. There are no issues of seniority, gender and age. Therefore, in our company, as long as you have sufficient ability and know how to manage, you are qualified to be a leader. Our chairman is of all ages. He is younger than us, but his scientific research ability is better than ours, which shows that age is not a problem."

"I can see that you respect your chairman very much. Can you tell me why?"

“I respect him not because of his position.

But our chairman has too many advantages. He is knowledgeable, very diligent and dedicated. He can always lead us to solve core technical problems and always find the best solutions. At this point, I think He is more like a top expert and we are able to grow quickly.

It can be said that he is a soul figure, and no one can replace him in terms of technology.

In addition, the chairman is very good at communication and coordination, is friendly to employees, and can effectively coordinate all aspects of resources to achieve the best results.

At the same time, he pays great attention to details and execution, and treats his employees well. I think it is extremely difficult to find a boss like this in other companies.

These qualities make us respect and admire him very much.

Of course, our chairman is also very handsome, haha. "The female employee was not timid at all when facing the camera. She spoke with a smile on her lips and her voice was pleasant to the ear.

The female reporter nodded frequently, feeling in her heart that this female employee not only respected and admired their chairman, but even had some faith.

"Oh, does your chairman often communicate with you about technology?"

"Yes, he has no leadership airs at all. He often goes to the laboratory to solve technical problems with us. He has very strong hands-on ability. What shocked us most is that the chairman's analytical ability is very strong. It is ridiculously strong. He can tell us at a glance Can analyze where the problem is.

He is only in his twenties. In a few years, I really don’t know what level the chairman can reach. Technically, I feel that I can no longer keep up with the pace of the chairman. I hope to work harder this year and live up to the company. training and remuneration. "

"Thank you for your answer!"

The female reporter found a good topic. The chairman of a company often interacts with technical employees and goes deep into the grassroots. This is very rare.

Moreover, the level actually reaches the level of top experts?

Fang Bai is only in his twenties and a junior in college. Even if he is a top student, he cannot be so powerful.

It is estimated that many people are also very curious. With questions, she went to interview technical employees to see if this was really the case.

As a result, after purchasing several technical employees, the answer they got was really like this, even more exaggerated than what the female employee just said.

What kind of god-level genius, world's top expert, top scientist, Einstein's reincarnation, etc.

At present, Xinghai Group does have several very powerful mechanical products. From this aspect, Fang Bai must be at the level of a technical expert, but if he is said to be a top scientist, the female reporter thinks that the employees praise him.

But from a side perspective, it shows that employees admire Fang Bai’s ability and conduct.

At 2:45, the personnel manager shouted to the employees on the court: "Don't stay outside, please go in and find a seat to sit down."

The employees on the basketball court heard this and burst into the canteen laughing, finding seats in their departments and sitting down.

At this time, Fang Bai, his father, and several company executives were chatting with several city leaders in the chairman's office.

Today, the city leader Lu Chaomin and two deputy city leaders came, as well as several leaders from relevant departments, just to join in the fun and listen to the annual meeting.

They were invited to attend the annual meeting of a state-owned enterprise, where they mainly talked about their feelings and shouted slogans.

But they have never seen the annual meetings of private enterprises.

After the New Year is over, there will be New Year's Eve dinner and activities. I heard that the prizes in the activities are very rich, and Xinghai Group treats its employees very well.

Some companies hold annual meetings, and the senior executives talk for two or three hours to brainwash the employees. The employees feel drowsy after listening to them. Do you want to have an annual meeting banquet?

Thinking too much!

Only companies with good profits and generous bosses will hold annual banquets and activities.

Today, several state-owned enterprises held annual meetings at the same time. Lu Chaomin was invited, but he declined the invitation from the state-owned enterprises and came to the Xinghai Group's annual meeting.

When the time came, Fang Bai walked to the canteen with the city leaders and company executives. Everyone was chatting and laughing along the way.

The moment they walked into the canteen, all the employees stood up and applauded warmly to welcome them. The applause continued to echo in the canteen, getting louder.

Fang Bai was wearing a suit and tie today, and his face was full of joy. When he saw the employees applauding, he stood up and pressed his palms down to signal everyone to sit down.

After the city leaders took their seats in the guest area, Fang Bai and several company executives took their seats on the stage.

Fang Bai's mother and Qin Shuyu were also sitting in the guest seats.

Fang Tingting, wearing a multi-pocket vest, picked up her SLR equipment and kept taking photos.

She is not timid at all in crowded situations. During her three years in high school, whenever there were school activities, the school leaders asked her to take photos.

The photographer from Shanghai TV Station saw Fang Tingting's professional equipment. After seeing what brand it was, he couldn't help but be speechless. He was also curious about who this girl was. Her posture and position for taking pictures showed that she was very professional.

Not to mention, although Fang Tingting only has three years of photography experience, the number of photos taken is no less than those of these professional photographers, and her experience is all gained by spending money.

Qin Shuyu, who was sitting in the guest area, looked at Fang Tingting in front of the stage. She was stared at by thousands of eyes but was as calm as water. She had to admire this future sister-in-law.

The aunt sitting next to her was also inspired by the atmosphere, with an excited smile on her face. Looking at the guests around him who are either rich or noble, but very respectful to his son, and then looking at his son sitting in the middle of the stage, his eyes are full of pride.

She was also recalling her entrepreneurial journey in the past three years, feeling a little emotional that the company has grown so big and the changes have been earth-shaking.

Today's host is Human Resources Manager Lai Xia. After all the guests and company executives were seated, he looked at the time and saw that it was exactly three o'clock.

She glanced at the chairman again, and after receiving the signal to start, she picked up the microphone, walked in front of the stage, and said loudly: "Dear chairman, leaders, dear colleagues, and distinguished guests, good afternoon everyone."

Nearly three thousand people in the audience listened quietly and watched the host on the stage. When Lai Xia finished speaking, everyone automatically applauded.

Lai Xia waited for the applause to fall and continued: "In October 1990, our chairman, Mr. Fang Bai, just turned 18. At this age, perhaps many of his peers are either studying or have just not been involved in the world. Most young people Still dependent on parents for life.

As for our chairman, he has begun to set up a street stall to sell TVs and start a business to solve his family's financial difficulties, while at the same time he is nervously preparing for the college entrance examination.

Not only did he succeed in starting his own business, he also won the top spot in the national college entrance examination that year.

That year, Xinghai Electric Co., Ltd. was established.

I joined the company relatively late, and I will be able to witness the chairman's entrepreneurship. Mr. Jing Tianjing, who is currently the store manager of Xinghai Plaza in Wencheng, knows the development of Xinghai Group best. "

When Lai Xia mentioned this, Jingtian, who was sitting on the stage, couldn't help laughing and waved to the employees in the audience. Three years later, he has grown up.

At that time, Jingtian learned how to repair electrical appliances from the chairman, moved TVs to sell on street stalls, and established Xinghai Shopping Mall.

After graduating in July 1991, he joined the company directly and then served as technical director.

At the beginning of last year, he was appointed as the store manager of the Xinghai Plaza electrical appliance store and supermarket.

Colleagues such as Li Meng, Chen Yang, and Xiang Tianhai who joined at the same time are all holding middle management positions in Xinghai Group Plaza. However, this time he came to attend the annual meeting, and they still stayed in the mall to take charge of work. In recent years, The mall is very busy.

The employees and guests in the audience, hearing Lai Xia's words, were also recalling what they were doing when they were 18 years old.

Lai Xia smiled and continued: "It can be said that the predecessor of Xinghai Group is Xinghai Electric Co., Ltd. However, Xinghai Electric Co., Ltd. is no longer there and has changed its industrial and commercial registration to become Xinghai Commercial Co., Ltd.

In July 1991, the chairman came to Shanghai, and it was from here that he began his magical entrepreneurial journey.

In August 1991, Xinghai Machinery Company was established.

…

In May 1992, Xinghai Group was officially established, starting its international diversified development.

Currently, our Xinghai Group is an international diversified company with five subsidiaries and nearly 9,000 employees.

I feel a little emotional. Next, according to the chairman's instructions, I will talk about today's meeting and activity arrangements.

Today from 2 to 3 pm, the company’s annual meeting;

From 5pm to 9pm, there will be a lucky draw tonight for the company's New Year's Eve dinner and annual meeting. The prizes are very rich. The first prize is 21-inch color TVs, a total of 20 sets; the second prize is the company's VCD machine, a total of 100 sets; third prize There are 300 first-class bicycles in total, as well as fourth and fifth prizes. The prizes include trolley cases, four-piece sets, razors, thermos cups, makeup, skin care sets, etc. The total number exceeds a thousand, and the winning rate is very high. Guests are welcome to participate, and there are other activities. I hope everyone will actively participate and have fun. These are the exact words of the chairman.

Next, our chairman was invited to speak, and everyone applauded warmly. "

Employees and guests were shocked to hear the winning numbers.

There was a brief moment of silence, and then enthusiastic applause broke out, and some employees even couldn't help shouting "Long live the Chairman!"

"Oh my God, color TV!"

"Wow, so many prizes!"

Some employees couldn't help but exclaim.

There were less than 3,000 people present, but the winning rate for bicycles was as high as 10%!

There are over a thousand fourth and fifth prizes. As long as your luck is not bad, you have a high probability of winning.

The total market value of these prizes reaches 500,000 yuan, so bold!

The media reporters and some guests who were not bosses wanted to stay and participate in the lottery, and they had food and drinks.

Even if they did not participate in the event, they had already received a small gift, including a souvenir thermos cup with the words "Xinghai Group" printed on it.

The thermos cup itself is not particularly expensive, but it has the words "Xinghai Group" printed on it. For some guests, taking it out is a shame, and some guests have already planned to show off the cup to other customers in the future.

Originally, Fang Bai planned to invite singers, but he heard that the appearance fee for a well-known singer would be more than 50,000 yuan, which was not affordable at all, so he simply canceled it.

It’s not affordable at all for employees, so it’s better to spend money on employee prizes.

Fang Bai slightly adjusted the height of the microphone, and saw that the employees in the audience were very excited, with satisfied smiles on their faces. It seemed that this event prize was deeply loved by the employees.

Lowering his voice, he opened his lips and said loudly:

“Three years have passed by so quickly, and I never imagined that the number of employees in Xinghai Group has reached 9,000.

Just now, Manager Lai talked about my entrepreneurial days, which made me couldn't help but recall the hard work back then.

What I want to say is that we want to thank this era, thank our national and local government leaders, thank all colleagues, and thank our suppliers and partners.

At the same time, we are also grateful to our competitors, who allow us to constantly inspire us, let us know our shortcomings, and allow us to dare to advance bravely, face difficulties, and continue to grow.

During the three years of Xinghai Group, I have some feelings. Our employees have sacrificed a lot, but our gains far exceed our efforts.

In the past three years, our achievement is that we have you, from three or four employees to nine thousand employees. This is our greatest wealth. As such, our operating income reached 13.8 billion yuan last year and we paid about 1 billion yuan in taxes for the country. Yuan is a major local taxpayer. "

Fang Bai paused, and the applause came like a flood, warm and lasting.

The employees clapped their hands red and their faces were filled with expressions of joy and pride, while the guests had expressions of respect.

Even Fang Tingting, who was taking pictures, saw the thunderous applause at the scene. She couldn't help but stop taking pictures and join in the applause. She thought to herself, I'm so awesome. It turns out that the company's annual revenue is so much. I thought it was more than a dozen. A hundred million.

Doesn't that mean that I made a lot of money last year?

13.8 billion yuan is a very huge number, and paying 1 billion yuan in taxes is very great and makes a huge contribution.

Xinghai Group’s annual revenue is higher than the GDP of some third- and fourth-tier cities.

These days, there are too few private companies with revenue over 100 million.

Not to mention private enterprises, it is difficult for many state-owned enterprises to achieve revenue exceeding 10 billion yuan. Even if there are revenue exceeding 10 billion yuan, the profit margin is not as high as that of Xinghai Group.

Except, of course, for the tobacco industry.

Fang Bai sounded a little excited, and then said: "Xinghai Group has indeed achieved a lot, but for a company, it is still a three-year-old child and is not worth mentioning.

Colleagues, we have solved the problem of not being able to eat meat and not having enough food and clothing, and we have also solved the problem of not having enough clothes and housing.

In the future, we need to solve the problems of employee housing, education of employees' children, etc. When these problems can be solved, we should reflect on the fact that we should also have national feelings, fulfill social responsibilities, and work hard to solve the technological problems that the country is choked by developed countries. problems, environmental, ecological, social poverty and other social issues.

Xinghai Group is no longer a small company, it can be said to be the boss of private enterprises.

I would like to be modest and say that I am the second child. I guess no company dares to say that I am the boss. "

The employees in the audience like to listen to the chairman's speech. Throughout the year, the number of times he speaks is very rare, and some employees even have no contact with him.

Listening to the chairman's words, I was very interested. When they heard the interest, everyone couldn't help laughing.

Yes, which company dares to be called the boss!

Moreover, the level of the chairman's speech has risen to issues of family and country sentiment and social responsibility, which has made employees think deeply.

Is this necessary?

have!

Because Xinghai Group is already the leader of private enterprises!

If they don’t do it, who will lead?

The government leaders sitting in the guest area did not expect that Fang Bai's ideological consciousness was so high. As the boss of a private enterprise, Xinghai Group should indeed set a good example. They did not remind him, but they had already said it publicly.

Xinghai Group is no longer just a private enterprise, it has risen to a higher level. (End of chapter)
