Chapter 1204 Xiao Su, eat more vegetables and drink less alcohol
When Liu Zhenghong said he would give bonuses to the employees, everyone's enthusiasm was immediately ignited.
The audience erupted in enthusiastic applause and cheers.
"Clap clap-!"
"it is good!"
"Let's all follow the leader and work hard!"
"I hope the factory gets better and better, and we earn more and more money!"
In the past six months or so, the factory's veteran employees have really felt that life is getting better and better, and everyone is full of energy!
Liu Zhenghong's face was so full of smiles that several more wrinkles appeared on his face.
After everyone quieted down a bit, he continued, "Today, everyone has met our new shareholder, Ms. Su! Don't let her young age fool you, she's incredibly capable! It was she who proposed the idea of expanding into online channels, and she also offered many valuable suggestions. With her financial support, our factory was able to come back to life!"
He gestured invitingly in Su Xing's direction, "Now, let's have our CEO Su say a few words!"
Everyone applauded again to welcome Su Xing to the stage to speak.
Su Xing stood up gracefully and walked onto the stage.
After checking into the hotel, she changed into the suit she was going to wear to the annual meeting in her room.
At this moment, she stood on the stage with composure and elegance, truly exuding the capable and elite aura of a young female CEO.
Looking at the young and beautiful girl on stage, some employees still found it hard to believe that she was really one of their bosses!
Zhuang Yi sat beside the sound equipment, looking at Su Xing at this moment, and recalling her somewhat naive appearance right after the college entrance examination, he couldn't help but feel a little dazed...
Liu Zhenghong handed the microphone to Su Xing and walked off the stage.
Su Xing looked around the audience and smiled as he began, "Good evening, everyone. I'm Su Xing. I haven't been here much in the past six months. Apart from coordinating funding with President Qin and President Liu and holding online meetings, I haven't really seen you all in person. I bet many of you are wondering, 'Who is this person?'"
Many people in the audience chuckled, and the atmosphere relaxed.
Su Xing continued, "Many people may feel that I, as a new shareholder, am far removed from everyone. Indeed, in the past six months, apart from discussing the use of funds with President Qin and President Liu a few times, I have not stepped into the workshop, nor chatted with everyone. I don't even know the names of many of the workers. Standing here today is more like 'getting acquainted' so that everyone knows that I, as a new member of the family, am not a stranger who only looks at financial statements."
I don't understand the production process, nor have I been involved in the factory's management. General Manager Qin and General Manager Liu have led their teams for so many years, they know better than me how to do a good job. Everyone has worked their way up in their respective positions, they know better than me how to refine the product. All I can do is one thing: ensure that everyone doesn't have to worry about money while they are moving forward.
I know the factory has had a tough six months. When orders were tight, everyone worked overtime, and when raw materials were scarce, everyone worked together to find solutions. General Manager Qin and General Manager Liu have both mentioned these things to me. My investment wasn't a gamble; it was based on my belief in the factory's foundation and, more importantly, on everyone's willingness to work hard with the factory.
I also believe that good products speak for themselves, and hardworking people will eventually be rewarded—let's work together to turn this 'old factory' into a 'major brand,' so that everyone can proudly say when they talk about their work, 'I work at Xiangqu Food Factory, and our products are the best!'"
Su Xing concluded by saying, "I won't say much today. I mainly wanted to meet everyone, express my gratitude, and reassure you that I won't interfere. I will only provide the support I need. In the time to come, please enjoy your meal and have a good time. I wish you all a Happy New Year in advance, and I hope that our factory will have a smooth year ahead so that everyone can earn more income!"
The employees in the audience all smiled and applauded!
"Clap clap-!"
They seemed to envision a future where their products would be available in major supermarkets across the country, and they themselves would be brimming with benefits and bonuses!
Thinking back to those days, they were truly blissful!
Su Xing handed the microphone back to the host who came back onto the stage.
Amidst enthusiastic applause, she stepped off the stage and returned to her seat.
The host smiled and said, "Thank you, bosses! Listening to what you all said just now, I felt very reassured standing here. Our factory has people leading the way in development and people providing support and guarantees. Isn't that the confidence we have to work hard in the future?"
Another round of applause erupted from the audience.
The host smiled and waited for the applause to subside before continuing, "Actually, all of you bosses have the factory on your minds, and so do our employees. In the summer, when the workshop is hot, some people voluntarily take shifts to supervise the production line for their colleagues; delivery drivers don't even have time to eat their cold meals in order to meet deadlines. It is because we are all of one mind that we have overcome the difficulties step by step! Now that we have spoken frankly and have more confidence, it's time for us to have some fun!"
Following that are skits and crosstalk performances written and performed by our workshop colleagues, as well as dances rehearsed by the administration and sales departments. There will also be a lucky draw in between – the first prize is the latest high-end XX brand mobile phone! The second prize is an XX double-door refrigerator, and there are various other prizes, all guaranteed to be things everyone can use!
The audience craned their necks, their faces full of anticipation.
At this point, the dishes began to be served to each table.
Today, the cafeteria staff also attended the annual meeting, so a kitchen team was hired to prepare the dishes.
The host on stage gestured towards the backstage area and said in a lighter tone, "Without further ado, let's welcome our first performance, a skit called 'Fun Stories from the Production Line' by Master Wang from the packaging workshop and his apprentices. Please give them a round of applause!"
After the host stepped off the stage, the performers took the stage.
Everyone ate, chatted, and watched the show.
At Su Xing's table, Qin Houze and Liu Zhenghong would occasionally use serving chopsticks to put food on Su Xing's plate, urging her to eat more.
Actually, Su Xing didn't need any persuasion; she didn't want to neglect her pregnancy.
Qin Houze, Liu Zhenghong, and the others raised their glasses and drank a few cups, and Su Xing also made a gesture of drinking as well.
Qin Houze said, "Xiao Su, eat more vegetables. You're still young, you don't need to drink alcohol."
Liu Zhenghong also said, "Yes, yes, eat more vegetables, drink less alcohol, and have some beverages."
In their eyes, Su Xing is an equal partner with them, but sometimes they subconsciously feel that she is still young and that she should not be involved in this kind of drinking culture.
Su Xing smiled and replied, "Okay."
She didn't want to smell of alcohol at the company's annual party, so she figured she might as well eat more.
Although the skit on stage had some flaws in its performance, the script was well-written, very funny, and very down-to-earth, making everyone laugh out loud.
After the performance, everyone applauded the performers.
Before the applause and laughter from the audience had even subsided, the host quickly walked onto the stage with cue cards in hand.
Her voice was filled with excitement as she said, "Didn't the skit that Master Wang and the others performed just now bring all the little things in our workshop to life? I saw a lot of the workers nodding in agreement. This is the kind of lively atmosphere that comes from our own community!"
Once the laughter from the audience subsided, the host changed the subject, "However, amidst the excitement, there is an important matter to attend to today—we were able to overcome this difficult time thanks to everyone's solid efforts in their positions, and several colleagues are role models for all of us. Today, we must personally deliver this honor and award to them!"
She raised her hand to signal everyone to look at the large screen behind them, and the screen switched to display the list of "Outstanding Employees of the Year".
