Chapter 526: Annual meeting (middle)
(ps: The first draft, I haven't had time to correct the typos, you can wait half an hour to read it!)
The "IQ Cup" refers to the third bridge competition of the Oriental Group, the "Dougu Defeat Cup" refers to the second game challenge of the Oriental Group, and the "Thirteen One Cup" is the first Mahjong Competition of the Oriental Group. The finals of these three internal employee entertainment events were specially arranged to be held at the group annual meeting at the end of the year!
"I don't know about the other two names, but the name 'IQ Cup' was selected by our research institute from 52 names that were publicly solicited internally by voting! The first 'IQ Cup', Just a self-entertainment activity within our institute.
But since the second session, a group of people from Dongyou Company who like to play bridge joined in, so the competition became a competition between the two companies! From the third session of this year, the group headquarters decided to take over the organization and management of the competition, so it was suddenly upgraded to a large-scale competition for the entire group! "Liu Wei smiled and explained the origin of the "IQ Cup".
Compared with ordinary poker games, bridge is a game that tests intelligence, psychology, and cooperation. It has always been the favorite of technical nerds. Whether it is the Oriental Research Institute or the Oriental Game Company, there are a large number of people with high IQs, so bridge is also very popular in these two companies.
"Although I can't play bridge, I can still play mahjong! It's a pity that our company joined the big family of Dongfang Group too late, otherwise we have to sign up!" Zou Wenrong sighed deliberately and said with a smile .
"Do you know how many people signed up for the mahjong competition?" Song Boliang asked mysteriously.
"how many people?"
"1356 people! Everyone's registration was so enthusiastic that the logistics office of the group had to organize a special selection competition. First, a group of applicants who were too low-level were eliminated! But in the end, 400 people still entered the main competition, and then after three rounds Fight. In the end, only 8 players have been decided, and they will enter the finals today!" Song Boliang shook his head and said.
"This competition is really fierce! The prize money for the final champion must be quite a lot!" Cai Tong couldn't help smacking his tongue. Although HSBC, where she works, also has an annual meeting every year, it does not have so many tricks.
"Bridge is a team competition. There are four players in each team. The winning team can share the prize of HKD 500,000! In the individual competition of Mahjong, the champion can enjoy the prize of HKD 200,000! If Miss Cai likes to play the game "Hong Kong Square" If so, you can challenge the "Hong Kong Cube" with abnormal speed later!
Among all the people who participated in the challenge, the player with the highest points can get a bonus of 100,000 Hong Kong dollars! "Song Boliang said, pointing to a group of people not far away.
"Hey, the falling speed of that block will get faster and faster. I lasted for 42 seconds. That's it! Most people can't last for a minute!" Gao Qiqi saw Zou Wenrong eager to try, and immediately opened her mouth to strike.
"Actually, it doesn't matter whether we can get the bonus or not, we focus on participating!" Liu Chang saw Zou Wenrong's somewhat embarrassed expression, and immediately spoke out to relieve the siege.
"It's almost the first lottery draw, and I don't expect to win the grand prize. I just need to draw a b-2 game console (a-2)!" Liu Chang glanced at his watch and reminded everyone.
"You're so unmotivated, I'm here for Li Sheng's sports car!" Han Ying patted her boyfriend in dissatisfaction and said.
Seeing Zou Wenrong and Cai Tong looking very bewildered, Gao Qiqi explained to her colleagues, "Starting from one hour. Every hour there will be a lottery draw! Presumably when you signed in just now, you should have already signed in. Got notified!
And the biggest surprise of all the prizes is a yellow Chevrolet Camaro! Don't think that a civilian sports car like the Camaro costs only HK$100,000 in Hong Kong. It's not as good as the luxury cars like BMW and Pingzhi!
But the Camaro that was given as a prize today has a very special meaning. It was the first car Li Sheng bought, and the only sports car in his garage that was personally driven by Li Sheng! It is said that Li Sheng was driving this yellow Camaro at the beginning. Go catch Miss Zhong! "
There are many luxury sports cars parked in the garage of Li Xuan's house, but Li Xuan himself has only driven him before he became famous. The Chevrolet Camaro sports car that I bought is the Bumblebee in the later "Transformers 1". Later for safety reasons. Li Xuan travels in all kinds of luxury bulletproof vehicles.
So this Camaro has been parked in Li's garage and dusted! Not long ago, Li Xuan's eldest brother Li Kexin bought a Ferrari. But the Li family's garage was full, so he said hello to his younger brother and prepared to drive away the old Camaro for disposal.
After all, among the luxury sports cars that sell for millions of Hong Kong dollars, this old sports car, which was originally priced at only 45,000 Hong Kong dollars, is indeed out of place! But to Li Xuan, this Camaro represents a period of lush years.
Back then he was far less rich than he is now, but he was also more free than he is now. Wealth can give people many unimaginable luxury, but it also makes people lose a lot of freedom.
Now Li Xuan can no longer drive a sports car like he used to, carrying his beloved girl for a ride on the street. There are always a lot of bodyguards and assistants behind him, and he has to passively accept various intensive schedules!
Compared with most of the bosses in Hong Kong, Li Xuan's attitude towards business management and enjoying life is open enough. He has already left most of the affairs of the Oriental Group to the professional management team.
But Li Xuan can't really ignore it, because the current Dongfang Group is no longer about his personal wealth, but also about the jobs of hundreds of thousands of people! Now that he has gone through the years when he could be reckless and unrestrained, let's find a master for this Camaro who can make the engine roar again!
The main reason why the Oriental Group invested heavily in such a huge annual meeting at the end of this year is to unite people's hearts and boost morale! The stock market crash two months ago hit the wallets of Hong Kong shareholders hard, but for the Oriental Group. The bigger agitation is the intensified immigration wave from the second half of this year.
As early as the beginning of the Sino-British negotiations in 1982, there was a wave of immigration in Hong Kong. And in the middle of this year. After the British side clearly refused to give ordinary Hong Kong people the right to live in the UK, everyone's panic broke out completely. For the people at the bottom of Hong Kong. Even if you want to immigrate, you have more than enough energy.
Therefore, it is the upper-middle-class elites who have really migrated overseas on a large scale, and the Oriental Group is one of the largest gathering places for elites in Hong Kong. You must know that in the Oriental Group, there are more than 100 millionaires born just because of the equity incentive plan, and there are thousands of millionaires!
And these people are the backbone of the self-proclaimed development of the Oriental Group. If they lose their confidence in staying in Hong Kong, it will be a big blow to the Oriental Group. Therefore, Li Xuan must use a high-profile move at this time to inspire everyone's sense of belonging to Hong Kong and the Oriental Group!
And take the opportunity of the annual meeting to present a sports car that he once drove. Undoubtedly, it is an excellent opportunity to bring the lofty boss "Fortune Li" closer to the ordinary employees of the Oriental Group. In this regard, the Camaro is even more meaningful than those million-dollar sports cars.
Because if he really gave away a sports car worth millions, if he was chosen by ordinary employees, he would not be able to maintain it, but he would lose the deep meaning of giving a car! And a second-hand Camaro with an actual value of less than 100,000 Hong Kong dollars sent a positive message to everyone.
The richest man in the world, "God of Wealth Li", also started his struggle as a worthless poor boy, and he didn't have the money to buy luxury yachts and private jets worth hundreds of millions of dollars as soon as he came up! So when everyone knows that there is such a special sports car among the prizes in the raffle today. Everyone is secretly gearing up!
"Aying, even if you get a sports car, it's not easy for you to drive back to the mainland. The import tax alone will make you vomit blood!" Fang Qianqian said with a smile.
"This car was drawn by Li Sheng himself before the dinner party. You reminded me now! When Li Sheng hands the keys to me later, you must reflect this problem and ask him to send it to Buddha. West!" Han Ying said without showing weakness.
"Looking at what you said, it seems that you have already won a sports car. You even sent Buddha to the west, and your face is getting thicker and thicker!" Fang Qianqian was about to pinch Han Ying's cheek. So the two girls immediately started making a fuss.
The list of winners was soon announced, and there were ten lucky winners in total. Four of them received a b-2 handheld game console. The other four got a -2 video game console, and the other two got a 40-inch large color TV made by ra company.
All the prizes given out in the annual meeting are the products produced by Dongfang Group! It's just that Gao Qiqi and others were obviously very lucky, and they failed to win in the first round of the lottery!
As the people attending the annual meeting gradually gathered, the interior of the Mandarin Oriental Hotel also became very lively! In the main banquet hall, the "IQ Cup" bridge game and the "Thirteen Unity Cup" Mahjong game began the final final at the same time.
Every battle table was surrounded by crowds watching the game. Zou Wenrong and Cai Tong watched a few games behind Liu Wei, then greeted the others and left. After all, the entire bridge final will last for two hours. The two of them, who can't understand the rules, naturally can't spend all their time here, so in another banquet hall, there will be a splendid literary and artistic performance. extravaganza.
※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※
"Okay, I have completed my two songs today!" After Zhang Guorong sang the two songs "The Wind Continues to Blow" and "The Love of the Year", he didn't walk off the stage, "But I am a singer other than the singer. In addition, there is another character who is a live host today! The next program is a mysterious program that is not in the catalog!
There is a very powerful singer who will bring you a love song! If you can guess who this singer is now, then I will send you a dozen handsome private photos of 'Little Ma'! There are only three chances! "
The typhoon hosted by Zhang Guorong was very casual, and he threw a bad smile at Zhou Runfa not far from the stage. Under his agitation, the atmosphere at the scene suddenly became extremely warm. You must know that Zhou Runfa's private handsome photos are rare, and the opportunity is rare!
This cultural performance was arranged in a large banquet hall in the hotel. A one-meter-high performance stage was set up in front of the banquet hall, and nearly 500 seats were neatly placed under the stage. At this moment, all the chairs were already full of people, and even the aisles were crowded with people.
In order to avoid overcrowding in the banquet hall, the entrance has begun to restrict the flow of people. Those who were not able to squeeze in, had to watch live TV in other parts of the hotel where TVs were placed!
And Zou Wenrong and Cai Tong came to the performance site half an hour before the performance to grab seats, but even so, they still only found two vacancies in the corners of the back row.
"Who do you think this mysterious singer is? Could it be Xu Guanjie?" Cai Tong asked Zou Wenrong next to him with great curiosity. Their seats were too far from the stage in front of them. This kind of opportunity for interaction on and off the stage was naturally not worth it. Maybe it's their turn in the corner.
"It's definitely not Xu Guanjie, he is the pillar of Jiahe! Although Asia Entertainment and Jiahe can't be regarded as enemies, there is no reason to give such a big face to the people of other companies in the annual meeting of our Oriental Group!" Zou Wenrong shook his head. said.
At this time, an audience selected by Zhang Guorong also guessed Xu Guanjie's name like Cai Tong. After all, he was one of the most popular entertainment kings in Hong Kong in the 1980s. If it can be said that as a special guest, he can beat Zhang Guorong, Tan Yonglin and Mei Yanfang who appeared in the playlist, and Xu Guanjie has this status. After all, when people were popular all over Asia, these three were just fledgling!
"Then who are you?" Cai Tong asked curiously.
"This is a cultural performance of our Oriental Group~www.wuxiaspot.com~ to show the style of employees of various companies in the group, but whoever wants to come can come! Didn't you hear what Zhang Guorong said before?
As the most literary and artistic company in the group, Asia Entertainment has only been allocated five program spots. This time, we have sent elite soldiers to show the style of Asia Entertainment! And if you want to temporarily add a program, what a face!
You must know that there are all the management of the group sitting in the audience, as well as VIPs like the Governor of Hong Kong and Sir Pu! If I want to say, only Li Sheng has such a face! "Zou Wenrong analyzed slowly.
"Haha, you can really guess!" Cai Tong chuckled.
"What if I get it right? Give me a kiss?" Although Zou Wenrong was just casually saying it, he couldn't help but be a little dissatisfied when he saw the female companion's unconcerned appearance!
"Then did you guess wrong?" Cai Tong said without showing weakness.
But while the two were still arguing, there was a burst of applause from the scene. It turned out that a beam of light hit the center of the stage, illuminating the singer who was about to sing! (To be continued.)
