New Year is approaching.
It also ushered in the annual meeting of Yiyang Group.
Aunt Shao Yue'er was getting engaged in the second year of junior high school and was still in the capital. She couldn't come to attend this year's annual meeting. Shao Le thought that his father would take his mother and Xue Huan to the company like in previous years, but he didn't expect to have dinner early in the morning. When I was about to leave, my father told me: "I feel a little unwell. Tonight, you three siblings will go to the company to attend the annual meeting. If anyone asks you, just tell me that I have a cold and can't get up from bed."
My sister naively thought that her father was really ill, so she asked stupidly: "Dad, are you okay? Do you want to go to the hospital?"
"fine."
Shao Yang smiled: "Just take a nap and you'll be fine. I have to go to the company in the evening, so I'll inevitably drink and stay up late."
After Shao Yang finished speaking, he turned to the brothers and said: "You two brothers have read the group's annual report. According to the rules of every annual meeting, I have to say a few words before starting. Tonight, you two brothers will say a few words for me. , say whatever you want."
"Um."
Xue Huan and Shao Le looked at each other and said nothing.
After breakfast, Shaoyang went upstairs to take a pack of cold medicine and lay on the bed to sleep.
Xue Jiajia covered him with a quilt, frowned and asked, "Is it appropriate to let the three children go tonight?"
"We are all adults, there is nothing inappropriate."
"I'm afraid that they are young and don't know what they can and cannot say."
Shao Yang smiled and said, "They are my sons. Is there anything they can't say?"
Xue Jiajia thought that they were still young anyway, so if they really said something wrong, no one would mind, so she didn't care about it anymore.
At 5:30 in the evening, Su Tong drove a commercial car and parked in front of his house.
Xue Huan put on a formal suit and prepared to leave for the company with her sister and Shao Le. Su Tong in the car saw only the three of them coming out, and frowned and asked: "Wanyin, where is your dad?"
"My dad is not feeling well, so only the three of us went to the annual meeting this evening."
"Is it serious?"
"Been in bed all day."
Su Tong thought for a while, nodded and said: "Then you get in the car first, the annual meeting will start soon."
Su Tong took them to the underground parking lot of the group building with ease. Two female employees guarding the elevator saw the commercial vehicle coming and hurriedly greeted it.
After Xue Huan got off the car, he asked directly: "Is everyone here?"
The two female employees wearing cheongsam looked at each other, and finally said in unison: "Everyone is here."
Xue Huan nodded and walked directly towards the elevator.
Shao Le and her sister also followed. The two female employees saw that there was no one in the car. Although they were curious, they quickly followed.
The building has a dedicated banquet floor, which is only used once a year.
In the hall at this moment, there are about ten people per table. Except for a passage in the middle with a red carpet, the other places are full of tables. There are at least two to three thousand people. These are just some of the employees of Yiyang Group. There are also There were quite a few employees and no chance to be there.
There is no way, there are too many people, and we can’t even sit down when we come.
At the front of the banquet hall, there is a separate table, which is reserved for the chairman of the group and the heads of each branch.
Qi Tianfang from Yiyang Agency.
Huo Ying of Yiyang Investment.
Chen Zhenghao of Fuyao Culture.
Li Chu from Qingmeng Vision.
Ma Zhendong of Shanhe Pictures.
Jiang Ping from the Yiyang Foundation.
At this moment, all six of them had taken their seats. Qi Tianfang raised his hand and looked at the time. Huo Ying and Li Chu were talking quietly, Chen Zhenghao was scrolling through his circle of friends, Ma Zhendong's face was red and he didn't know what he was thinking, and only Jiang Ping was leaning sideways. , looking towards the door of the banquet hall from time to time.
When she saw the door being pushed open and Shao Wanyin, Xue Huan, and Shao Le walking in from the outside, she murmured: "Here we come!"
When the other five people at the table heard this, they all turned to look at the door, and then stood up from their seats out of habit.
When the employees of each company saw the general manager standing up, they also stood up from their seats. Thousands of eyes soon fell on the three siblings.
The elder sister walked in the middle, followed by two younger brothers, one on the left and one on the right. There were no figures of Shao Yang and Xue Jiajia behind her.
Qi Tianfang and Huo Ying had a trace of doubt in their eyes.
My sister walked to the front and saw everyone looking at her. She felt a little embarrassed. Shao Le snapped her fingers at a female administrative employee who had been standing by. The female employee was stunned for a moment and did not react. When she saw Shao Le pointing Pointing to the microphone in her hand, she quickly stepped forward and handed the microphone to Shao Le. Shao Le handed the microphone to her sister's mouth.
My sister was also stunned and immediately glared at Shao Le. Shao Le whispered: "Just say that dad is not feeling well and can't come tonight."
My sister reacted, cleared her throat and said: "Well... hello everyone, my dad is ill today and cannot come to attend this annual meeting. I specially asked the three of us siblings to say hello to everyone. Everyone, please sit down. "
After my sister finished speaking, the people below didn't react for a long time.
Seeing this, Xue Huan took the phone and said, "Everyone, please sit down."
"Swish, swish, swish~"
At this moment, everyone sat down one by one. Huo Ying was the first to ask with concern: "Wanyin, what's wrong with your dad? Is it serious?"
"I just have a slight fever. I've been in bed all day today."
"This winter is indeed colder than previous years. You have to take good care of your dad."
"Um."
"Uncle Huo." Xue Huan said, "Let's not wait any longer and let's get started."
Huo Ying nodded and said to Qi Tianfang and Chen Zhenghao: "Then let's do it in order like in previous years. How about that?"
Several people nodded.
Soon, the heads of each branch stood up to speak one after another. Their speeches were similar every year. Xue Huan came to every annual meeting, so he was tired of hearing it. Shao Le thought it was quite interesting, and what he said was obviously not the same. The same, but the meaning seems to be similar.
After Huo Ying finished speaking, he pointed to Xue Huan and Shao Le in the audience with a smile and said: "In previous years, Brother Yang gave us the summary. Today, Brother Yang is ill, so we will let Mr. Xue and Mr. Shao talk about it. Just say it."
"Bah bang bang."
Along with a burst of laughter, there was also warm applause from below.
After Huo Ying finished speaking, he handed the microphone to Shao Le. Unexpectedly, Shao Le shook his head and glanced at Xue Huan. Huo Ying then handed the microphone to Xue Huan again.
After Xue Huan took the microphone, he said with dignity: "First of all, on behalf of my father, I would like to sincerely thank all the guests and colleagues for their support and help to the company. Secondly, I would also like to thank all the family members of the company, whether they are present or What wasn’t there was everyone’s hard work and professionalism…”
What Xue Huan said was similar to what Shao Yang said in previous years.
This made the employees below feel a little dazed, thinking: "After all, he is Brother Yang's son. His eyes, movements, and even the rhythm of his speech seem to be carved from the same mold."
Xue Huan said it eloquently. If someone recorded it, this would be the most standard annual meeting speech.
Finally, the microphone was passed to Shao Le again.
Everyone was thinking: Xue Huan said everything that should be said, and what Shao Le would say. My sister also looked at Shao Le, a little worried that he would talk nonsense and make a fool of himself.
Shao Le stood up with a smile and said, "Since Uncle Huo asked me to say a few words, I will just say a few words."
"I now own a small company. I used to think that it was not difficult to open a company and be the boss. But after I became the boss, I realized how difficult it is to be the boss. Especially the bigger the company, the harder it is to manage, let alone Each branch of our group has thousands of people, not to mention how many worries we usually have."
"I would like to express my gratitude to Uncle Huo, Uncle Qi, Uncle Chen, Uncle Li, Uncle Ma and Aunt Jiang. You have all worked hard in the past year."
Several people at the table laughed and shook their heads.
"It's all as it should be."
"We're all used to it."
"..."
Shao Le smiled, changed the topic, and said: "My brother and I have heard from my dad about the situation of the group this year, including the annual reports of several companies. My brother and I have also read it. This year is indeed worse than last year. On the one hand, I think it has something to do with the international economic downturn, and on the other hand, it also has to do with the fact that when the company has grown to this scale, most people have become content with the status quo and lost their momentum."
"Of course this is inevitable. After all, to be honest, we are now considered a leading company in the industry."
"But I still want to remind everyone that throughout the ages, there have been so many dynasties and so many powerful clans. No matter how strong they were in their heyday, it only takes a few years for them to decline and fall."
"I think we should sound the alarm now. If there are people in the company who are cheating and doing nothing, they should be fired when they should be fired and suspended when they should be. Of course, if there are capable employees, they should be promoted when they should be promoted and rewarded when they should be commended. "
"Uncle Huo, Uncle Qi, Uncle Chen, Uncle Ma, Uncle Li, do you think I am right?"
Several people looked at each other, but in the end it was Chen Zhenghao who smiled first and said, "That's right!"
The others nodded in agreement.
Shao Le immediately said humbly: "I didn't prepare anything in advance. I just said whatever I thought of. If there is anything wrong with what I said, please forgive me."
"Well, we are about to usher in the new year. My sister, my brother, and I would like to wish you all a happy new year. We also wish our Yiyang Group to prosper and make further progress!"
Sister and Xue Huan stood up and picked up the red wine glasses.
Huo Ying, Qi Tianfang, Chen Zhenghao, Ma Zhendong, Li Chu, Jiang Ping and others sitting around also stood up.
Everyone in the banquet hall quickly stood up. After sharing a drink, this year's annual meeting also kicked off.
Su Tong, who was standing in the corner, recorded the video of Xue Huan and Shao Le talking, and then silently sent it to Shao Yang.
Amidst the laughter, some people who were originally very happy couldn't laugh for some reason.
