Chapter 404: Year-end bonus

'Now, please welcome our boss, Mr. Han Songlin, to give a speech!' Zhu Xiangping said, gently clapping her hands. At this moment, there was also a round of applause.

Han Songlin usually did not often appear in front of the employees, and even many employees had never actually met Han Songlin in person, except for seeing his photo on the wall.

But none of this has prevented the employees from respecting and loving Han Songlin.

Han Songlin got up and took the microphone handed to him by a young woman standing next to the temporary stage steps.

I've never seen this young woman before!

Has the company gone to the school to find a part-time student?

Where there are universities, there is an interesting phenomenon: students taking part-time jobs.

For students, taking part-time jobs is a way to get in touch with society.

Many university students don't know what they're studying for at school; to put it bluntly, they're learning without a purpose.

Without a sense of purpose, their motivation to learn is relatively poor.

If they can go and intern at a company related to their major during the summer vacation, they can actually gain a lot.

At the very least, they can let themselves know that what they're learning at school is useful.

Through the internship, they can also understand some of the work processes and know what things they will probably need to use at work.

After returning to school, can you not carry out a special supplementary study based on what you lack and don't know? (This paragraph is for readers under the age of 21 who are reading this book.)

When you actually graduate, you will already be fully prepared to enter society.

Han Songlin thought about it for a moment, and then stopped thinking about the part-time students.

He took the microphone and walked onto the stage. What came into his eyes was a crowd of people sitting neatly.

'We were supposed to invite Mayor Wang of Jiangzhong to say a few words. Mayor Wang is a nice person, and he said he couldn't steal my thunder, so he won't come up and speak!'

Han Songlin's opening words made everyone laugh.

To ordinary people, this is just simple banter; but to some people with ulterior motives, this remark contains a lot of information.

The fact that he can joke like this shows that Han Songlin and Wang Huicheng have a good relationship; at the same time, it also shows that Xinghai Group and Jiangzhong have a good relationship.

It would be an exaggeration to say that the two are close.

It is difficult for people to be close to each other.

'I don't want to be the centre of attention either, so I'll keep it short. First, at today's commendation meeting, we are recognising the outstanding employees and R&D personnel who have achieved significant results over the past year. Those who are not being commended should not be discouraged. If you didn't do well last year, we will continue this year. As long as you do your best, the company will be able to see it.'

'The second thing, we'll talk about later! Here, the music starts, and our outstanding employees are welcome to come up to the stage to receive their awards!'

BGM is a must!

Zhu Xiangping signalled to the audience, asking the young girls carrying trays to come up to the stage.

For a sense of ceremony, the trays were wrapped in a red cloth.

Of course, the young girls were also wearing uniform clothing today; either cheongsams or long red down jackets.

It was clear that these young girls had also been selected, as they were all about the same height and weight.

Han Songlin personally presented each outstanding employee with a certificate of honour and a medal.

Zhu Xiangping kept announcing on the side where each person came from, what position they held, and which company they belonged to.

Next, it was time for the group photo.

Then the honour certificates were awarded to the R&D team.

Each R&D team took a group photo with Han Songlin, and a special photo of their team was also taken.

The whole process seemed very calm and collected, and it would be a surprise if anything unexpected happened.

Normally, it will go on very normally.

'Thank you to everyone who has contributed in their own way over the past year. Today, we have recognised those who have performed outstandingly among us. Although the rest of us have not performed as prominently as they have, it is because of everyone's silent dedication that Xinghai Group has reaped such a bumper harvest last year. Therefore, this year's year-end bonus will surely satisfy everyone. Twenty percent of Xinghai Group's annual net profit will be distributed to everyone as a year-end bonus!'

'In the future, as long as Xinghai Group is still in existence, the annual year-end bonus standard will be 20% of the net profit, and this will be the permanent rule.'

'Specifically, how much will be paid out this year and what will be the standard of distribution? Everyone will have to wait and see the company's financial report and notice.'

'By the way, in order to receive the year-end bonus, you must have been employed for at least one year!'

It would be quite unfair to other employees if they received the year-end bonus even though they had been employed for less than a year.

At this point, Zheng Lin, who was sitting in the audience, and Li Hong from the human resources department glanced at each other; their eyes were full of helplessness.

They knew that they would have their hands full in the next month or so.

Zheng Lin was a little headache-stricken, as they had just finished preparing the financial report for Xinghai Group last year.

Now they had to take 20% of the profits to pay the year-end bonuses. There was naturally no problem with paying the year-end bonuses, but how exactly should they be paid?

Twenty percent of the net profit!

Everyone can see how profitable Xinghai Group was last year.

The employees attending today's commendation meeting are basically from Fuxing Motorcycle and Fuxing Power, as well as Fuxing Precision and Fuxing Forging, plus employees from Fumando Supermarket.

There is no company that doesn't make money.

Of course, no one really knows how much money was made, so we can only look at the group's financial report.

Xinghai Group pursues the principle of openness and transparency in management.

As long as the documents and data can be made public, employees can know about them.

It all depends on whether employees are interested in it or not.

Usually, a copy of these documents is placed in the staff library for employees to read.

This has another advantage, which is to allow employees to supervise the company management to see if they are messing up.

Naturally, employees have a standard to judge the company's management and development.

The eyes of the masses are discerning!

Although sometimes they can be easily deceived.

But they can be deceived for a while, but not for the rest of their lives.

'If 20% of the profits are used to pay bonuses, wouldn't that be hundreds of millions of dollars? No matter what, a person can still get a few thousand dollars, right?'

'Of course, you have to make a lot of money for the company to get a lot of money.'

'No, it should be divided equally.'

'Of course it won't be divided equally. Look at Fule Liquor, which makes billions of dollars a year. Would they be willing to share equally?'

As Han Songlin's words fell, the entire meeting room became a little noisy.

There was no way around it, it was just too shocking.
