Chapter 16 Party

Du Qiu's life is too legendary and has reached a state of high school. The 5 million year-end bonus is just like the pay of Hollywood superstars. For ordinary people, it is just a topic of gossip after dinner, and there is not even a jealousy, let alone catch up. However, when the three executives with the letters of C and O in the titles of 6 entrepreneurial veterans including Qin Mu, He Lixing, Li Jianhua, etc. came out, the people in the theater couldn't sit still.

"One person, one Audi or 350,000 yuan in cash? That's too generous!"

"Yang Fan only joined the company in August, and only worked for 4 months. Is it the same year-end bonus as Qin Mu and the others?"

"It is said that Du Qiu is particularly satisfied with Yang Fan's work. He originally planned to give him a bonus of 500,000, but he refused and only received 350,000."

"Really or not?"

This is true. Du Qiu is not only very satisfied with Yang Fan's management ability, but also with his strategic vision. You should know that by using media pressure during the Internet Conference, the Yuncheng City Government's move to sell the Botanical Garden to Snapdragon was worth tens of billions, and only giving him a year-end bonus of 500,000 is already extremely stingy.

The other two directors also contributed considerable. Han Ying did everything in the split of iView and subsequent financing process, while Liu Yunlai made great efforts in operating the Internet conference and promoting smart cities, which was completely worthy of his year-end bonus.

However, as the reporters discussed, because Snapdragon has just been established less than a year, the assessment system is not perfect, and the time for joining people is different, and the contribution cannot be measured by unified standards. If the reward and punishment are inappropriate, it is easy to have internal conflicts. So Yang Fan puts the overall situation first and rejects Du Qiu's proposal, and chooses to get the same year-end bonus as Liu Yunlai, Qin Mu and others. This move not only won the respect of others, but also won Du Qiu's favor for him. After all, more than 100,000 is not a small amount.

Next is the year-end bonus of middle-level management and technical backbone at levels a5 to a8. The lowest is 20,000 and the highest is 100,000, which is also very generous. However, except for the parties involved, the interest of media reporters can no longer arouse the attention, and the attention is still on the high salaries and high bonuses of Yang Fan and others.

"Li Jianhua made more than 30 million yuan for the company, but He Lixing didn't make a penny. Now the two of them are getting the same year-end bonus. I wonder if he will be resentful?"

"This matter is hard to say. Some things cannot be measured by money. He Lixing's operating system has a great impact. Although he did not make money on the surface, he has earned a lot of face for Snapdragon in the international academic community. The top leaders of the country also attach great importance to it. The benefits obtained by adding up various preferential and support policies may be more than 30 million."

“That’s right.”

"Snapdragon's salary is high, and the year-end bonus is so generous. As soon as our report is released tomorrow, a large number of talents will definitely come to Yuncheng to submit their resumes."

Just a few minutes later, when Yang Fan announced the year-end bonus of employees from A3 to A5 and handed the stage to Du Qiu, the reporter found that he was still too simple because Snapdragon's attractiveness to talents is not just as simple as spending money...

After Du Qiu took the microphone from Yang Fan, he first announced a chain of personnel appointments. Xu Yongrui replaced Yang Fan as human resources director, Yang Fan replaced himself as CEO, and he changed to Chief Technology Officer.

Although this appointment sounds like a very significant adjustment, everyone knows that Snapdragon has been operating like this for a long time, so there is no big reaction. However, Du Qiu, compared with the text description on the big screen, announced a series of company benefits not only attracted cheers from employees, but also made the reporters very envious.

"Housing Plan: The company purchased 4 commercial residential buildings in Qinchunyuan at one time. After renovation, it will serve as an intern and a temporary dormitory for new employees who have joined less than one year..."

"Health Plan: The company has signed cooperation agreements with several Grade A hospitals in Jingcheng, Pujiang and Yuncheng. All employees and their immediate relatives can have free physical examinations four times a year. If they encounter serious or serious illness, they can receive the best treatment in the contracted hospital. All expenses will be reimbursed by Snapdragon..."

"Protective Plan: All employees who have worked for Snapdragon for more than one year and die due to illness or accidental death, their immediate family members can continue to receive 10 years of salary and immediately repay the option rewards in the contract..."

"Study Plan: If employees with high school education get admitted to university, college degree get admitted to bachelor's degree, bachelor's degree get admitted to master's degree, and master's degree get admitted to doctoral degree, the company not only reimburses all tuition fees, but also provides living expenses of no less than 5,000 yuan and scholarships of no less than 10,000 yuan each year. In addition to academic qualifications, various professional skills certificates also reimburse fees and provide rewards..."

"Credit Plan: The company provides interest-free loans ranging from 100,000 to 1 million for employees above A5 level to help them buy houses, cars, study abroad or other consumption..."

Most of these welfare policies were plagiarized by Du Qiu from Google and Alibaba and other Chinese and foreign Internet companies 20 years later. They seem to not regard money as money, but in the long run, the cost is not much, but the effect is very good. Not only does it increase Snapdragon's corporate image of people-oriented and loving talents, it also strengthens employees' sense of belonging, reduces their willingness to change jobs, enhances the motivation to work overtime, and drives them to create more profits for the company.

However, in the 1990s, these high-end benefits completely subverted the Chinese people's perception. Li Laoshi was shocked and shocked. He turned his head and was about to communicate with his colleague sitting next to him, but he saw the man raise his hand and pat his cheek a few times and said, "Brother Li, the party is over. You tie me up and stuff it into the trunk of the car. Don't let me go out tomorrow."

"What are you doing?"

"I'm afraid I can't help it, so I went to Snapdragon to submit my resume."

Li Laoshi couldn't help laughing and laughed out loud. At this time, Du Qiu finished the introduction of the welfare policy, raised his hand and looked at the watch, and said, "The time is almost over, so I won't be too late to mention work. Next, let's welcome the arrival of the New Year with laughter!"

As soon as the words finished, the Snapdragon employees who had gained a lot and could no longer hold back their joy and pride in their hearts immediately gave a deafening cheer. Many people lost control and shouted desperately on their chairs. The atmosphere of fanaticism and carnival was extremely strong, filling the entire theater, almost all of them were about to lift the reinforced concrete building up.

"Du Qiu, would you please let me go back to the company and continue to be an administrative manager? I like Snapdragon very much, they very much, and this kind of atmosphere."

"I know you like it." Du Qiu put his arms around Jiang Danfeng's waist and shouted in her ear: "You are now a shareholder of the company, and if you don't go to work, you are Snapdragon."

"Um!"

If sorted by time, Jiang Danfeng was the first employee to join after the establishment of Snapdragon, earlier than Qin Mu and others, and made a lot of contributions in organization and logistics. She resigned to meet Yang Fan's requirements, not because of her own work problems. So in order to compensate, Du Qiu directly fulfilled the stock option rewards agreed in the contract. Although the number was not large, it was of great value. She became one of the dozen small shareholders of Snapdragon and was still a part of the company.

In the hot atmosphere, the lights in the theater first went out and then lit up again. On the stage, 12 employees wearing suits and tie appeared. In the strong and uniform group dance, the New Year's Day party officially began.

Although Yang Fan hired some professional teachers to help with training and the employees worked very hard, they were all fun-oriented enthusiasts, and they were busy with work and limited energy and time. Therefore, whether it was singing or dancing, they were stuck in the rut of imitating celebrities, lacking creativity and freshness. For example, the group dance dances by Zhao Hongfei and others imitated the "dangerous" performed by Michael Jackson at the Grammy Awards Ceremony, and it was castrated and simplified, which was far less exciting than the original version.

However, for the company's internal party, excitement is not important, participation is important, so although the level is not high and mistakes are frequent, the audience is very proud of their face. The applause, cheers and kind-hearted sarcasm never stopped, it was noisy and lively. It was not until around 10:30 pm when He Lixing's program appeared, the theater became quiet again.

He Lixing went to Beijing to attend an academic seminar and could not attend this evening party, so he recorded an 8-minute delay video in advance as his program. The content was to use discarded electronic components as materials and weld a hypothetical software park on an iron plate. After the welding process was played, he pointed to various parts on the iron plate and explained one by one where the office area is, which is a rest area, which is a residential area, which is a kindergarten, etc., and he was very straightforward and boring, as if he was a crappy agent who promoted real estate.

Du Qiu is very familiar with this guy's indulgent personality and knows that the purpose of his filming this video is just to show off his hobbies. However, in the eyes of many Snapdragon employees, this is not only a company base for the future, but also a place for his future residence. Therefore, he listens very seriously, and the expectation and yearning in his eyes almost illuminates the dim theater.

"Mr. Du, it seems that the software park project is going to speed up."

"Well, you can negotiate with the city as soon as possible about land replacement."

At 12 o'clock in the evening, with Du Qiu's accompaniment, Jiang Danfeng sang the song "My Dream". In the song, video materials from various periods after the founding of Snapdragon appeared on the big screen. The inspiring and beautiful singing and arduous images blended perfectly, completely releasing the employees' emotions that had surged all night, turning into a tsunami that was overwhelming. Many people could not control their tear glands, and looked at the lyrics on the screen with their wet eyes, and sang together. The song passed through the gate of the theater, disappeared in the bright night sky of 1995, and floated before the quiet dawn of 1996.

"Let the light refract the tears wet pupils..."

"Reflects the rainbow I want to have the most..."

"Take me to the sky with you..."

"Because you are my dream..."

"My dream..."
