One Yuan First Recharge: I'm Actually the Boss Behind a Fortune 500 Company

Hearing Chen Ming's request, Wang Hao felt a pang of sadness.

These days, life is hard for everyone, and the burden on single fathers is even heavier.

This request is perfectly reasonable, and there's nothing to hesitate about.

He spoke into the phone, "Picking up the kids is a big deal, no problem, approved."

After a pause, he suddenly thought of his own exhaustion from leaving early and returning late every day and the lack of sleep, as well as the time and energy that countless workers in this city wasted on their commutes. A bolder idea popped into his head.

"How about this, the company adjusts its work schedule?"

"Starting tomorrow, the workday will be from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.

"If everyone can rest a little longer in the morning and relax a bit more, and if they can leave work earlier in the afternoon, they can have more time to take care of their families, handle personal matters, or simply enjoy life."

In the conference room, the electronic voice transformed this compassion and sudden intention for change into a more strategic declaration:

【approve.】

Effective immediately, the company will implement a new flexible work schedule: core working hours will be adjusted to 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM.

We firmly believe that high productivity stems from a vibrant mind and a balanced life.

The company encourages everyone to focus on their professional skills while also managing their personal lives and maintaining their personal warmth.

Chen Ming suddenly raised his head, his eyes instantly turning red.

He never expected that his boss would not only agree to his personal request, but also directly adjust the entire company's work schedule because of it!

This not only completely solved his problem of picking up his daughter, but also made him have much more time to send her to school in the morning.

An indescribable sense of gratitude and shock welled up in his heart, and his voice choked slightly:

"Thank you so much, boss! Really... thank you so much!"

This completely ignited the atmosphere in the conference room.

If everyone was still in shock and observation before, now, an almost burning excitement and anticipation has begun to spread silently.

Lei Zhen, the photographer sitting in the corner, couldn't contain himself any longer. He shifted his position in his chair and raised his hand before anyone even called his name, his voice booming:

"Boss! It's my turn! It's my turn!"

"My equipment urgently needs an upgrade! I'm still using a crop-sensor camera body, which means I have to stand really far away to shoot brown algae, and the lens quality isn't up to par, resulting in a significant drop in image quality."

"I want to upgrade to a professional full-frame camera system, paired with the 'holy trinity' lenses!"

"I guarantee that with the equipment in place, the quality of your work will definitely reach a new level!"

For a tech fanatic like him, the right equipment is his lifeline, and his eyes are filled with longing for "divine artifacts".

The electronic voice rang out without delay, crisp and clear, as soon as he finished speaking:

【approve.】

[Immediately prioritize upgrading to a full set of professional photography equipment in our procurement plan.]

[Requirements: Full-frame flagship camera body, complete prime and zoom lens set, including the standard "holy trinity" of lenses.]

[Lei Zhen, submit a detailed equipment requirement list and technical specifications today to initiate the procurement process.]

The initial budget is 10 yuan; the goal is to achieve the desired result in one go.

The upper limit of a company's visual expression is the upper limit of its technical equipment.

"yeah--!"

Lei Zhen couldn't help but shout out, clenching his fist in excitement.

He felt he had met a kindred spirit in his career!

In the places I used to work, let alone applying for high-end equipment, some places practically made employees bring their own equipment.

This boss is something else, he just handed over a budget of 100,000, won't he be able to work like crazy from now on?

Seeing that the boss was almost always responsive to everyone's requests and the atmosphere was so lively, Lin Wei, the designer sitting to the side, stopped waiting for her name to be called.

Her cool voice rang out:

"Boss, I don't have any special requirements for hardware."

"However, our company is located in the CBD area, where rents are high and commuting is crowded and time-consuming every day, which takes a lot of energy in the long run."

"I wonder if the company could...?"

Inside the rented room, Wang Hao listened and felt a deep sense of empathy.

Absolutely right!

He himself is a living example.

Who wouldn't want to live next to their company and save themselves the trouble of commuting?

However, the rent near the CBD is a huge burden for ordinary workers.

Every day, I spend a lot of time and energy on crowded buses and subways. Before I even start working, I'm already half exhausted.

He understood this deeply, so he spoke earnestly into his phone:

"The question Lin Wei raised is very crucial and also very practical."

"Employees' living and commuting conditions are directly related to their energy and efficiency at work."

"We can't let our precious energy be wasted on the road. So, starting this month, the company will set up a special subsidy."

"Each month, we will provide everyone with a housing subsidy of 2000 yuan and a commuting subsidy of 1000 yuan, totaling 3000 yuan."

"Based on their own circumstances, everyone can choose to share a rental near the company or improve their living conditions, or use the time to cover high-quality commuting options, such as taxis or private cars, and use the saved time to rest or improve themselves."

The system-translated audio elevates this compassion to the level of talent care and efficiency management:

The suggestion is highly valuable and is hereby adopted.

To safeguard the core combat effectiveness and sustainable creativity of the team, the company has decided to implement a housing and commuting support plan effective immediately.

All full-time employees will receive a special subsidy of up to 3000 RMB per month!

This subsidy aims to help you optimize your living radius, improve your commuting quality, and focus more of your valuable time and energy on professional development and life balance.

Upon hearing this, Lin Wei's cool eyes flickered slightly, a hint of surprise flashing across them.

She was simply stating the objective difficulties, but to her surprise, the boss not only listened but also offered such a practical and effective solution.

3000 yuan per month is more than enough to rent a decent room nearby, and even for employees who already have housing, it is a considerable extra benefit.

She nodded slightly, her tone still calm, but with a newfound sincerity:

"Thank you, boss."

Following the order, it was finally Zhou Jianjun's turn as the administrative supervisor.

Even for a seasoned veteran like him who has seen it all, today's series of "shocks" has left him feeling unsettled and unable to calm down.

At this moment, his face once again displayed that smooth and polite smile, his tone respectful yet proactive:

"Boss, all the suggestions you've made are excellent; they all stem from the company's development and the well-being of our employees."

"As the person in charge of administration, I would like to add a small suggestion from the perspective of logistical support."

He didn't talk about personal matters, only official business, and his words were watertight:

"You see, we usually rely on ordering takeout for lunch."

"In the long run, this will not only be very expensive, but it will also be detrimental to everyone's health."

"I suggest that the company set up a small internal canteen and hire a cook to prepare meals, ensuring hygiene and nutrition."

"Also, if possible, could you provide an area where everyone can take a short nap at noon?"

"Even just a few simple reclining chairs or a quiet space can give everyone more energy to focus on work in the afternoon."

When Wang Hao heard this, he thought it made a lot of sense.

Eating takeout every day is really not a solution, and I'm getting tired of the restaurants downstairs.

Having a canteen where you can eat hot and delicious home-cooked meals would be wonderful.

The issue of lunch break really resonated with working people, as sleeping on a desk is indeed uncomfortable.

He readily responded:

"Old Zhou, you've thought of everything. Eating and resting are indeed important matters."

"In that case, this logistics optimization plan will be entirely entrusted to you for implementation."

"You are responsible for finding a suitable space in or near the same building as the company and planning a kitchen and lunch break area."

"Produce a detailed plan and budget list as soon as possible, and I'll approve it for you. Make sure everyone eats well and rests well."

An electronic voice then sounded, elevating this specific arrangement to a systematic effort to build workplace care:

The recommendation is forward-looking and approved for implementation.

[Manager Zhou, please immediately take the lead in planning an "Employee Logistics Optimization Plan." The core objectives are: 1. Establish an internal, hygienic, and nutritious cafeteria to solve employees' weekday lunch needs; 2. Create a dedicated lunch break area to ensure employees can recover their energy.]

Please submit a complete proposal within three days. The company will fully support this initiative and treat it as a crucial infrastructure for enhancing team cohesion and sustainable work efficiency.
