Rebirth 2004: I can make money by writing.

As the Spring Festival approaches, an atmosphere of relaxation and anticipation permeates Future Technology Group.

In the office, after completing their year-end work tasks, employees had relaxed smiles on their faces and were eagerly discussing the upcoming holiday benefits.

New employees, in particular, are full of curiosity and anticipation about the company’s New Year’s goods and year-end bonuses.

"This year's New Year's shopping should still include shopping cards worth 1,000 yuan," one employee said thoughtfully. "It's pretty much the same every year. If they gave out physical New Year's shopping, it would be really troublesome to take it home."

Another colleague agreed, “Yes, shopping cards are the most convenient.

Hey, I haven’t used up all the shopping cards I received during the Mid-Autumn Festival, National Day, and New Year’s Day.”

A senior employee proudly added: "Over the course of a year, I can get shopping cards worth several thousand yuan, which is a luxurious benefit for me personally.

Oh, my classmates who work in other companies were extremely envious when they heard about it.

After I heard them complain about their stingy benefits, I was embarrassed to tell my classmates about ours, for fear of offending them.

In particular, the company also promised to reimburse employees' travel expenses to their hometowns during the Spring Festival, including air tickets, sleeper berths, and fuel costs. This is unimaginable in many companies."

"Most of our employees come from other provinces," another colleague said. "The company's expenses during the Spring Festival holiday are very high. On average, each employee spends 2,000 to 3,000 yuan. Most companies really can't afford it."

"Yes," an older employee said with emotion, "Our group now has 30,000 to 40,000 people, and the total expenditure during the Spring Festival is estimated to be close to 100 million.

But the company is still willing to consider its employees, and this corporate culture is the most precious.

It’s very difficult to get into our company now. If you don’t have real skills, it’s even more impossible to get in by relying on connections.”

"Yes, our company's employees are very popular in the blind date market."

"Now our area is being developed into a high-tech city. It is difficult to obtain permanent residence in Pengcheng, but it is quite easy for our company's employees.

Once cars and chips are mass-produced, the output value of one company will account for half of Pengcheng's GDP. Pengcheng's GDP has already surpassed Guangdong Province and is catching up with Beijing and Shanghai. The local government will definitely give our company some face."

During this relaxed and pleasant conversation, the employees felt the warmth and care of the company, were full of anticipation and joy for the upcoming Spring Festival, and had a strong sense of belonging to the company.

For them, Future Technology Group is not just a place to work, but also another home.

In recent days,

Hao Qiang sat in his office and met with his subordinates one by one to report to him on the company's annual situation and development plan for next year.

"Hello, Mr. Wang. The chairman is free now. It's your turn to report on your work." In the office, Pan Lewei called Wang Xiaofeng, the general manager of Renjian Fireworks, in a respectful tone.

As the secretary of the chairman's office, although Pan Lewei's rank is only M2, he has considerable influence within the company.

Wang Xiaofeng answered the call and responded calmly, "Okay, thank you, Minister Pan."

He stood up and carefully adjusted his dark gray custom suit, making sure every detail was perfect.

As a senior executive, he knew the importance of maintaining a professional image at such a critical moment, especially to Chairman Hao Qiang.

The chairman’s annual work report is an important matter for the company and needs to be scheduled one or two weeks in advance.

Although Renjian Fireworks Company is no longer affiliated with Future Technology Group, this tradition continues because Hao Qiang is still the actual controller.

As a listed company with a market capitalization of 200 to 300 billion yuan, Renjian Yanhuo has become a business giant with more than 30,000 employees.

However, in terms of long-term development potential, it seems difficult to match the unlisted but vibrant subsidiaries of Future Technology Group.

Like an unwanted illegitimate child.

This kind of comparison often makes Wang Xiaofeng feel a little pressured, but it also motivates him to keep moving forward.

Looking back on his career, Wang Xiaofeng couldn't help but feel deeply moved.

Once upon a time, he was just a manager of an ordinary company. Fortunately, he met a noble person who appreciated him, which led to his current achievements and status.

After the company went public, Wang Xiaofeng's treatment made a qualitative leap.

His guaranteed annual salary has climbed to 150 million yuan, which is an astronomical figure in the eyes of ordinary people.

However, the salary pales in comparison to the stock awards he received.

As the company's core management, Wang Xiaofeng received a reward of 50 shares, and he also purchased 50 original shares at a preferential price.

With the steady rise in the company's stock price, his personal assets have exceeded 50 million yuan.

In addition, the company also rewarded him with a detached villa in Pengcheng, which is conservatively estimated to be worth at least 20 million yuan. It has now been renovated and is ready for him to move in.

Of course, the free villa comes with conditions - he needs to serve the company for at least ten years.

This requirement is not a burden to Wang Xiaofeng, but rather an encouragement and trust.

A few minutes later,

Wang Xiaofeng walked into Hao Qiang's office with a focused and calm expression.

After both parties sat facing each other, he gently placed a hardcover annual financial report in front of Hao Qiang.

Hao Qiang carefully read the report, occasionally making marks next to certain data with a pen.

Wang Xiaofeng stood quietly by, waiting for Hao Qiang to review it, and answered questions respectfully when there were any questions.

After Hao Qiang raised his head to signal, Wang Xiaofeng began to report in detail on the company's development over the past year:

"As of now, we have 280 hot pot restaurants and five Chinese restaurants across the country.

In the past year, we added 85 new stores, which was a very fast expansion, but it also exposed some minor management problems.”

He paused and continued:

"We have established central kitchens in every city across the country to uniformly process and distribute ingredients to ensure food quality. Currently, this system is operating very maturely.

Three training bases for employee training and skills improvement.

Yuecheng currently has a research and development center that continuously develops new products and improves services.

There are five vegetable bases, including Guicheng, Rongcheng, Sucheng, and Jinnan. A beef breeding base has been established in the province.

We have established a full traceability system from breeding to dining table to ensure food safety.”

Speaking of financial data, Wang Xiaofeng said: "In the past year, the company's total revenue reached 87.7 billion yuan, and its net profit after tax was 32.2 billion yuan.

After deducting fixed asset investment, the reported net profit after tax was 22.5 billion yuan."

According to this profit value, the market value of Renjian Fireworks is very hypothetical, and it is ultimately just hyped up.

Of course, according to the fame and development of Renjian Yanhuo, if the number of stores increases to several hundred and the profit margin can be maintained at the current level, it will be close to the current market value.

Finally, Wang Xiaofeng outlined the future development blueprint: "In 2012, we plan to open 100 new stores, including 10 overseas stores, mainly in Singapore and Taiwan markets."

This report lasted for nearly an hour, with Hao Qiang occasionally asking a few detailed questions.

His eyes moved between affirmation and scrutiny, giving Wang Xiaofeng an invisible pressure.

"How is the current development of Hidilao?" Hao Qiang leaned back on the leather seat, feeling a little curious.

Wang Xiaofeng straightened up slightly and replied seriously, "Chairman, Hidilao has indeed been keeping up with the pace of our company's development. I have to say, they have done quite well.

According to the latest statistics, the number of their stores has exceeded 125, second only to our company, and they have become our strongest competitor. "

A few years ago, Hao Qiang mentioned this to him many times and asked him to pay more attention.

At the time, Wang Xiaofeng disagreed, thinking it was just another short-lived brand.

However, it turned out that Hao Qiang had extraordinary insight.

The rapid rise of Hidilao not only demonstrates the huge potential of the catering market, but also highlights the increasingly fierce competition.

The boss of Hidilao never imagined that Hao Qiang had been paying close attention to the development of his company.

If the other party knew about this, they would probably shout: "What are you doing here? Give your colleagues a chance to live."

Wang Xiaofeng also knew that the rapid development of Renjian Fireworks was largely due to Hao Qiang's fame and influence.

Even though he has gradually faded out of daily management, in the public's mind, Hao Qiang is still the soul of human life.

This intangible brand effect provides strong support for the company's development.

Hao Qiang said seriously, "We must remain vigilant about the progress of our peers, but we must not underestimate ourselves. Pride and complacency are the biggest enemies of development. We must always maintain a humble and enterprising attitude."

Then, he continued in an encouraging tone, “Mr. Wang, you did a great job.

But there is still a long way to go, and I hope you can lead the team to continue to work hard and innovate to maintain our leading position in the industry."

Upon hearing this, Wang Xiaofeng straightened his back and responded respectfully: "Chairman, don't worry.

I will definitely live up to your expectations and trust!

We will continue to work hard to consolidate Renjian Fireworks' market position with better services and more innovative ideas, and contribute to the company's long-term development."

Hao Qiang smiled with relief and asked about his family affairs: "Mr. Wang, you followed me in 05. You were exactly 35 years old that year. Now, your child is in junior high school, right?"

"Yes, I'm in the eighth grade at Future Middle School. I'm a bit rebellious, and my wife is taking care of the child full-time." Wang Xiaofeng smiled. "Time flies. Six or seven years have already passed, but the chairman is still very young."

He often expressed his feelings to his wife that he never imagined that Renjian Fireworks would be successfully listed and become the leader in the domestic catering industry.

Hao Qiang laughed out loud, "Haha, it's normal to be a little rebellious at this age. We've all been there. If you can't accept reason, you won't know until you've suffered."

"Well, I don't expect my child to be a useful person. As long as he doesn't learn bad things and doesn't harm society, that's good enough."

"Well, as long as you have good character and good health, it's better than anything else." Hao Qiang said casually.

After the two chatted about family matters for a while, Wang Xiaofeng left the chairman's office.
