Chapter 638: Huge year-end bonus, coming again
With the rapid delivery of medium-sized 3D holographic projectors, a large number of suitable viewing halls have been renovated and joined the ranks of playing "The Wandering Earth" to make money. The data shows that the screening rate of "The Wandering Earth" has increased rapidly, from less than 5% on the day of the premiere, and has risen strongly all the way to 7%, 10%, 15%, 23%... Correspondingly, the single-day box office of "The Wandering Earth" has also risen, from 3200 million on the day of the premiere to 1.3 million, 1.5 million, 2.2 million, 3.9 million... Almost according to the screening rate, it has risen rapidly, as if there is no end. It was not until the first day of the Lunar New Year that the magical blockbuster "The Mermaid" was released, which temporarily suppressed the upward momentum of "The Wandering Earth". At this time, the screening rate of "The Wandering Earth" has increased to a terrifying 40%, the single-day box office has increased to 7 million, and the total box office has reached 17 billion, heading straight for the box office champion in the history of mainland films.
As the main competitor of "The Wandering Earth", "The Mermaid" is also coming on strong. The screening rate on the day of its release reached a terrifying 50%. It took only half a day on the first day to cut 2.8 million, becoming the highest-grossing movie on the first day of its release in Chinese film history. On the second day of its release, the single-day box office of "The Mermaid" reached 5 million, and "The Wandering Earth" remained at 7.2 million. The two movies together accounted for 90% of the screening rate. The remaining ten or so movies divided the remaining 10% of the screening rate. The bleak box office can be imagined. The two special effects blockbusters were released at the same time during the Chinese New Year, presenting a good show of dragon fighting tiger, and at the same time greatly raised the single-day box office ceiling of the Spring Festival, attracting a large number of people who had nothing to do during the Chinese New Year and did not want to visit relatives and friends to go to the cinema.
On the second day of the Chinese New Year, the 3D and 2D versions of "The Wandering Earth" were unlocked, and some local fans who did not have holographic theaters finally saw the long-awaited "The Wandering Earth". The response was pretty good, but it was far less shocking than the 3D holographic version, and the evaluation was not as high as the latter. Affected by this, the score of "The Wandering Earth" on Douban dropped below 9 points for the first time. Obviously, "The Wandering Earth" is the first native holographic movie and a hardcore science fiction blockbuster. Only by watching the holographic version can we reflect the true level of the movie and see the explosive full 3D special effects. The other versions are a bit lacking after all. Affected by this, many young people who returned to their hometowns for the New Year put away the idea of buying tickets to watch the ordinary version of "The Wandering Earth", and planned to go back to work after the New Year holiday to watch the holographic version.
Of course, all of the above is a story for later. Let's go back and continue to pay attention to the situation of the protagonist Qiao Ruida. After attending the premiere of "The Wandering Earth", Qiao Ruida forgot about the movie. As the year-end is approaching, the quarterly and annual reports of various branches have been submitted one after another. As the chairman of the group company, Qiao Ruida spends half a day just looking at the reports. Fortunately, Jarvis helped to review these documents and reports to be reviewed in advance, and marked out the problems or incorrect data. When Qiao Ruida looks at such documents, he can save a lot of time for review and calculation, which can achieve twice the result with half the effort.
In addition to work matters, Qiao Ruida also has some personal matters to deal with. Attending class reunions, visiting mentors and some professors with whom he has a good relationship, and attending business banquets hosted by some partners. As the year draws to a close, there are more and more such things to do, and Qiao Ruida feels like he is overwhelmed.
According to the practice of previous years, all companies under the Ruida Group issued their year-end bonuses before the annual holiday. This year, the total amount of year-end bonuses issued by Ruida Group hit a new high, reaching an exaggerated 300 billion, which is 50% higher than the total amount of year-end bonuses last year. The reason for the substantial increase in year-end bonuses this year is, on the one hand, the impact of the continuous expansion of the company's scale and the substantial increase in the number of employees. On the other hand, the old employees in the past have increased their length of service by one year, and the year-end bonuses they received have also risen accordingly. The amount received by each person has increased by 8000 to . On average, each person's year-end bonus has increased by to , which seems insignificant, but with a large base of old employees, the accumulated amount is also terrifying.
Employees who received huge year-end bonuses were all beaming with joy. Many began to place orders for various New Year goods and gifts, hoping to bring the joy of the harvest back home and share it with their families. Some employees were even more eager to share, and took screenshots of the year-end bonus receipt text messages and shared them on their Moments or even on social platforms. This move undoubtedly stirred up a hornet's nest, attracting countless friends and relatives, or bored netizens, who left comments with all kinds of sourness, envy, jealousy, and hatred, and all kinds of verbal criticism, wishing they could take their place.
When Qiao Ruida was browsing his Moments or Weibo Snaps recently, he often saw such a scene: screenshots or short videos of Ruida Group employees sharing their year-end bonuses, followed by a large number of comments or barrages, which was quite lively.
"Holy crap, a full 150,000 yuan. What company's year-end bonus is this? It's so inhumane. It's even more than my income in the past year."
"Watching this video caused me extreme discomfort. I suggest that I be permanently banned."
"There has never been a year-end bonus in our company. Even if the boss occasionally feels guilty, he only gives out some rice, cooking oil or something like that."
"There is no harm without comparison. I received 5,000 yuan as a year-end bonus this year, which is equivalent to one month's salary. I was quite happy and thought the company was quite generous this year. But then I saw a video posted by a UP host about the year-end bonus in the evening. It was a full 150,000 yuan. How can we who received 5,000 yuan as a year-end bonus feel embarrassed?"
"Jealousy has made me unrecognizable, jealousy has made me split apart. Heaven, earth, please send down a divine thunderbolt to kill the UP!"
"Is 15 a year-end bonus a lot? Not much, right? For example, middle-level managers in our company can generally get more than a year-end bonus. If they are department heads, they can get tens of thousands more."
"The problem is that the UP host is just an ordinary customer service staff of Ruida Technology Company. Isn't this year-end bonus too exaggerated?"
"I am also an employee of Ruida Group. I can responsibly tell you that this year-end bonus is not exaggerated at all. In Ruida Group, any old employee who has joined the company for more than one year can basically get a year-end bonus of more than 100,000. If the work enthusiasm is slightly higher, there are not too many lateness and early departures, and the performance is also acceptable, it is highly likely that you will get a year-end bonus of 150,000."
"The year-end bonus at Ruida Group is so high. It makes me want to change jobs."
"As expected of a company owned by the richest man Qiao, this year-end bonus is very generous."
"Due to business expansion, Ruida Aerospace and Ruida Pharmaceuticals under the Ruida Group are recruiting on a large scale. This is a rare opportunity, so those who want to change jobs should hurry up."
"By the way, the New Year holiday is coming soon, and the annual meeting of Ruida Group will be held soon. I wonder if there will be any live broadcasts to watch this year."
"What's so interesting about a private company's annual meeting? It's just some employees singing on stage and performing a few shows. The quality of their performances varies a lot, and their singing skills are almost non-existent. If they can keep in tune throughout the whole performance, it's considered an outstanding performance."
"I can tell from the first glance that you have never watched the annual meeting of Reda Company, so you would say that. Our President Qiao has always believed that after all the hard work of the employees for a year, now that they finally have the chance to attend an annual meeting, they should just eat sunflower seeds, drink tea, and have fun watching the show. As for the performances, let the invited actors do it."
"The Ruida Group has always been willing to spend money on its annual meetings, and all the actors invited are big stars. I remember last year's annual meeting brought together the four kings of Hong Kong, including the king Jay Chou. That scene was a sensation."
"Personally, I feel that the annual meeting of the Ruida Group is more exciting than the Spring Festival Gala. There are more celebrities invited, and there are no restrictions on the subject matter. There is no lip-syncing. It is all based on real skills and real singing. Such an annual meeting should not be missed." "I just saw an announcement on Kuaipai, saying that their filming team will attend the annual meeting of the Ruida Group and broadcast the entire meeting live on the evening of the 27th day of the twelfth lunar month."
"Good job, Kuaipai, you have once again obtained the live broadcast rights for the Ruida Group's annual meeting. We netizens are so lucky that we can watch such a wonderful evening party without spending any money."
"Speaking of which, is there any relationship between Kuaipai and the Ruida Group? I remember that last year's Ruida Group's annual meeting was also live-streamed by Kuaipai."
"Kuaipai's operating company is Ruixue Interactive Entertainment. Its founder is Qiao Ruixue and Qiao Ruida are siblings. Qiao Ruida also owns some shares of Ruixue Interactive Entertainment, but the percentage is not high."
On the evening of the 3th day of the twelfth lunar month, nearly employees of Ruida Group in Beijing gathered at the Bird's Nest to attend the annual meeting. Because Ruida Group expanded too fast and had too many employees, the number of employees in the Beijing area alone reached more than , which could not be accommodated in the Bird's Nest. There was no choice but to open two branch venues outside the Bird's Nest, which were arranged in several large sports stadiums in the suburbs of Beijing. Holographic cameras, high-speed networks, and large D holographic projectors work together to project real-time holographic images of the main venue in the branch venues, and the viewing effect is not much worse than that of the main venue. In fact, in addition to the two branch venues in Beijing, this annual meeting also set up several branch venues in Qiao Ruida's hometown of Decheng City, Ruida Aerospace City, Fuxin Graphite Products Factory and other places. At the beginning of the annual meeting, the performances were mainly in the main venue of the Bird's Nest, and occasionally one or two special programs of other branch venues were interspersed. Interactive links such as lottery draws were held by all employees of the group company, with information synchronized and online lottery draws, focusing on fairness and justice.
At 7pm, employees arrived at the Bird's Nest one after another, swiped their original work cards, and verified their identities to enter. The huge Bird's Nest was gradually filled up and soon became lively. At 7:30pm, Qiao Ruida, Du Qingqing, and Qiao Ruixue drove two flying cars to the sky above the Bird's Nest, hovered for more than ten seconds, and then reduced the engine output power, controlled the car to fall from the sky, and landed on the temporary stage in the middle of the Bird's Nest. This move caused a wave of commotion among the tens of thousands of employees who had already taken their seats on the scene. Qiao Ruida could hear the buzzing discussion through the car window.
"Hey, look, is that a flying car? How did it get over the Bird's Nest?"
"Looking at the model and color of this car, it looks very similar to the burgundy flying sports car that Mr. Qiao drives. I don't know why there are two of them, and they are flying over the Bird's Nest."
"The civilian version of the flying car has not yet been officially released to the public, and only those within our Ruida Group can get the mass-produced cars."
"Those two cars actually landed on the stage. What does this mean? Are they going to use flying cars as prizes for this year's annual meeting?"
"Our CEO Qiao is very wealthy and famous for being generous to his employees. He is willing to give a flying car as the final prize. It's something he can really do."
"A top-of-the-line Ruida sports car costs more than two million yuan, and how much does this flying sports car cost? It's already going to be more than five million yuan."
"It's too little, and the scale is too small. Supercars produced by foreign car companies can be sold for 20 to 30 million, but they are cars that can only run on the ground, and they are just a little faster. The flying car newly developed by our Ruida Group is the world's first flying car, and its flying speed can reach subsonic speed, which is not slower than those private jets. In terms of speed alone, the flying car can leave those supercars behind by several blocks, and it will not be restricted by roads and can travel a shorter distance in a straight line. A flying car with such excellent performance is priced at less than 20 million, which is considered conscientious."
"One of the flying cars has been registered. If I remember correctly, it is the one that our CEO Qiao often drives. The other flying car driven by Miss Ruixue seems to be brand new and unregistered. Maybe it is used for today's lottery."
"I wonder which lucky person will win the grand prize of a flying car tonight. It's worth at least tens of millions. Even if you don't drive it yourself, you can sell it and become a multimillionaire in a matter of minutes. You won't have to struggle for the rest of your life, right?"
Qiao Ruida and Du Qingqing got off the flying car, and then ordered Jarvis to drive the flying car away, so as not to occupy the stage and affect the subsequent performances. The brand new flying car driven by Qiao Ruixue, however, stayed at the back of the stage, suspended five meters high, used as the background board of the stage, and was also the ultimate prize of the annual meeting lottery tonight. Qiao Ruida led the two women off the stage and sat in the front row of the audience. Liu Jiayu, Zhao Hongcai and other company executives arrived at the Bird's Nest earlier than them, and were now sitting in their seats, talking to each other in a low voice. Seeing Qiao Ruida and the two women coming, they quickly stood up and greeted them.
"Mr. Qiao, the Chinese New Year is just two days away. I'd like to wish you a happy new year."
"Boss Qiao and Chairman Du, I wish you a happy New Year and all the best!"
"Boss Qiao, Manager Du, I wish you a happy marriage and a son soon!"
"Haha, bosses, happy new year!"
"Congratulations on your prosperity! Here are the red envelopes!" (End of this chapter)
