Chapter 23 Anniversary Celebration
"Chairman, please have a seat here." Zhang Xueming led Yu Heng to the best viewing spot below the stage.
The anniversary celebration of Universal Media was held on the 28th floor of the Universal Building. The entire 28th floor was used for banquets today, so the venue was quite spacious.
In addition to speeches by company leaders, there will also be performances by artists later.
Although the celebrities' appearances on stage are entirely voluntary and unpaid, many artists still compete for these ten performance opportunities.
For established and popular celebrities, this is a good opportunity, but for smaller artists and newcomers, it could be a chance to gain the appreciation of higher-ups and receive strong support.
Therefore, they employ a variety of methods.
Of course, it's not that big-name celebrities wouldn't try to get this opportunity, but they're more concerned about saving face and aren't as open about it.
Yu Heng sat with Zhang Xueming to his left and Zhang An to his right, shaking hands with waves of company executives who came to greet the chairman.
When the time came, the host took the stage, and the anniversary celebration officially began.
After listening to the company leaders' speeches on stage, the performance began.
Yu Heng was supposed to go on stage and say a few words, but he refused. It wasn't because he was nervous or timid; it was simply because he didn't like it. And he had the power to say no to anything he didn't like.
So Zhang Xueming spoke on his behalf.
The company's programs certainly don't just feature celebrities; they also include performances by senior executives and employees from various departments.
The leaders' performances are mostly meant to express an attitude of sharing joy with the people and to bring them closer to their employees.
The employees perform in order to earn high bonuses.
Huanyu doesn't force employees in each department to produce shows; they only use high rewards to keep them engaged.
Therefore, even ordinary employees are full of enthusiasm during each anniversary celebration.
"This group is pretty good, huh? Have they debuted yet? I don't think I've ever heard of them." Yu Heng commented to Zhang Xueming from below the stage about the boy group that was singing and dancing on stage.
“This D9 boy group has only been around for a short time, and they are all outstanding trainees from the company.” Zhang Xueming leaned closer to Yu Heng’s ear: “They are currently filming a group variety show to gain a group fanbase first. Their future plans should focus on both acting and singing. It would be quite difficult to stay on stage all the time.”
Yu Heng nodded. He didn't know much about these things, but he asked because he thought their performance was very energetic.
The performers were very professional, but the programs prepared by the leaders were only passable.
The main focus was on the performances by employees from various departments. I don't know whether to say they put their hearts into it or just let loose; their performances were incredibly diverse and hilarious.
Even Yu Heng laughed heartily, feeling that the essence of humanity was abstract.
After the performance, there was an awards ceremony and lucky draw. The prizes prepared by Huanyu included high-end mobile phones, home appliances, large red envelopes, and even two luxury cars worth millions.
The atmosphere at the scene was brought to a climax by the huge prizes.
"Ahhh! I won! I won!!!"
"Damn it, I was just one number short!"
Wow, there's five thousand in my red envelope!
"Hehe, my wife can use this phone; she's been wanting to get a new one!"
"Old Chen, you're so lucky! I only got a 1,000 yuan red envelope, your refrigerator must be worth 7,000 or 8,000 yuan, right?"
"I knew it, I'd only ever get a consolation prize of 500 every year."
……
After the fervor comes calm.
People gathered in small groups, some discussing their prizes, others trying to curry favor with the leaders, and still others seeking autographs from celebrities—the list goes on.
"Alright friends, now it's time for the meal. Please take your seats and enjoy your meal. I hope you all have a pleasant time!" the host said as he took the stage.
Everyone sat down next to people they knew well, so they could eat and chat at the same time.
The anniversary celebration at Universal Studios features a semi-self-service style, where you can choose your favorite food yourself or ask the waiter to bring you the dishes you like from the menu.
Of course, the waiters and chefs today were all hired from a five-star hotel. Today is the anniversary celebration, and the cafeteria staff are also employees, so they all came to participate in the event.
Yu Heng was naturally seated at the same table as Zhang Xueming, Zhang An, and the three deputy general managers.
"Mr. Yu, please try this shrimp and beef dish. It's spicy, flavorful, and quite delicious!" a deputy general manager introduced.
"Old Yi, your taste is too strong. If you ask me, this Yangzhou-style wind-dried goose is better!" another vice president said, disagreeing.
"Haha, Lao Yi and Lao He, the dishes you recommended are not good enough. I think the best dish today has to be this Dragon and Phoenix Soup!" The oldest vice president said, "President Yu, try it. The ingredients for this Dragon and Phoenix Soup are fresh, and the chef's skills are superb. I feel like I haven't had such a good soup in a long time!" He finished speaking with a look of emotion.
This is obviously not a suitable occasion to talk about work, so everyone is making the most of this great opportunity to build a relationship with the boss and won't let the atmosphere become awkward.
Yu Heng would try the dishes after each vice president introduced them, but he felt he was not worthy of the food introduced by the oldest vice president, Li.
"Mr. Zhang, please try it." Yu Heng decided to shift the blame elsewhere.
Unexpectedly, after Zhang Xueming tried it, he said it tasted pretty good.
Yu Heng paused for a moment, then changed the subject.
Even though we're not talking about work today, chasing after your boss to discuss topics they don't like isn't the kind of emotional intelligence a professional should have.
So everyone happily stopped mentioning that bowl of soup.
When they had almost finished eating, a woman in a formal dress with delicate features approached with a glass of red wine: "Chairman, it's a pleasure to meet you. I am Wei Lanyan. It's an honor to dine with you today. I'd like to offer you a toast." She then drank the wine in one gulp.
Zhang Xueming smiled and said to Yu Heng, "This is our company's Best Actress, Wei Ying. She has devoted herself to the company for almost ten years and is a great contributor to the company."
Yu Heng raised his glass to Wei Lanyan in acknowledgment, then took a small sip.
"I dare not accept the title of hero; I should thank the company for its cultivation of me," Wei Lanyan replied with a smile. Knowing that there were many people who wanted to toast the chairman, she decided not to keep blocking the way and annoy them. "Then, Chairman Zhang and all the leaders, please enjoy your meal. I'll head over now."
Seeing Yu Heng and Zhang Xueming nod to him, she pulled down the hem of her dress and left gracefully.
Sure enough, many people came over to offer him a toast. Even though he only took a small sip each time someone came over, there were so many people that Yu Heng already felt drunk.
"Chairman Dong, hello, I am Wu Zhoule from the D9 boy group."
Ji Chenyu
"Lin Lin"
"Zhou Xingze"
The four boys from D9 appeared beside him at some point, each holding a glass of red wine.
"Thank you for your appreciation, Chairman. We will definitely work hard, improve our professional skills, refrain from spreading rumors, and strive to create value for the company!"
After excitedly expressing their loyalty, the four boys drank the wine in their cups in one gulp.
Yu Heng felt a little dazed. He wondered if he was really drunk. How come he didn't know when he had told the D9 boy group that he appreciated them?
However, faced with four pairs of bright eyes, Yu Heng couldn't say anything more, and could only say, "Keep it up."
As if encouraged, the four boys replied in unison, "We won't let you down."
The sound was so loud that Yu Heng wanted to clean his ears.
After bowing to thank Yu Heng, the four of them excitedly ran off to find their manager.
As newcomers who had only recently debuted, they weren't supposed to be toasting the chairman. After all, there were too many people who wanted to toast him, and they didn't dare block their senior's way.
Moreover, although today is meant to be a day of celebration with the employees, it would be a dereliction of duty for Zhang Xueming if people of all ranks came to toast the chairman.
However, the agent received a message from Zhang's assistant, Li Mo, saying that the chairman had mentioned the D9 boy group and said they were very good.
This gave the boys the opportunity to offer a toast.
Yu Heng felt that it was just a casual word of encouragement, probably mostly meant to comfort him.
But for D9, they will have more opportunities in the future.
After all, this is someone the chairman mentioned. Department leaders have to give face to their superiors no matter what. Even if the person above just said it casually, who dares to bet that the leader didn't remember it?
There's another anniversary celebration in the afternoon. After all, not all employees can leave their posts to participate in the event. It's not that we don't give holidays, but the company has a special nature. Not to mention others, the artist department and the public relations department cannot take holidays.
So why not hold two sessions so that everyone can rotate positions?
However, Yu Heng declined to participate in the afternoon session.
He asked Zhang Xueming to stay and continue hosting, and then took Zhang An back to the hotel.
