Chapter 386 Chapter 385 Bonus Qiao Weiwei continued: "And Enthalpy Entropy Energy is still one of the high-profit companies in our group." "This year's revenue is 1 million yuan, with a profit margin of 35% and a net profit of 3500 million yuan." Lu Shan nodded: "The energy business is developing steadily and the profit margin is maintained very well." Qiao Weiwei turned to the next page and reported to Shenchuan Company, the largest subsidiary of the group: "Shenchuan Company's revenue this year reached 712 billion yuan." "However, the profit margin is relatively low, at 3%, and the net profit is billion yuan." Lu Shan nodded thoughtfully: "The profit margin of 3% is indeed not high, but after all, the scale is there, and the volume of revenue alone is satisfactory." Qiao Weiwei smiled and continued, "As for Zemeng Company, this year's revenue is 5000 million. Although it is performing well, it is still in the development stage and the annual loss is 2 million." Lu Shan was not surprised when he heard this. Instead, he smiled and said, "I know that Zemeng is a long-term project. It is normal for it to lose money. It has a lot of room for growth in the future."
Qiao Weiwei nodded to show her understanding and continued to report: "Finally, it is the scientific research expenditure of the Singularity Academy of Natural Sciences. The annual expenditure is 4000 million, which is mainly used for project research and development." Lu Shan smiled slightly and said with satisfaction: "Investment in scientific research is necessary. Singularity Academy of Sciences is crucial to our future development." Qiao Weiwei looked through the final summary data, raised her head and said, "In general, the combined revenue of the group's companies is about billion yuan, and the total profit after deducting costs is billion yuan." "Mr. Lu, this can be said to be the most glorious year since the establishment of our group." After hearing this, Lu Shan showed a hint of relief in his eyes. He is quite satisfied that the company has achieved such results in a short period of time. "Yes, all subsidiaries are growing steadily, which is exactly what we want. It looks like we can reward everyone well this year." Qiao Weiwei smiled and asked, "Boss Lu, how do you plan to arrange this year's year-end bonus?" Lu Shan pondered for a while and said, "This year is a bumper year, so we can't be stingy with the year-end bonus." "Director Qiao, you should decide based on the department and performance. The technical department and employees with outstanding contributions should receive an appropriate increase in rewards." "Official support should also be given to employees with outstanding performance in each subsidiary." Qiao Weiwei nodded and took notes carefully: "I understand, Mr. Lu, I will formulate the year-end bonus plan according to your requirements." Under Qiao Weiwei's promotion, Singularity Group's year-end bonus plan was quickly implemented, and the entire company was filled with a joyful atmosphere. Singularity Group’s salary system is divided into two major categories: C-level for management positions and T-level for technical positions. The C level for management positions ranges from C1 to C10, while the T level for technical positions ranges from T1 to T20. The higher the level, the richer the year-end bonus. The top year-end bonus can reach 100 million yuan. This amount of bonus is almost beyond the reach of ordinary employees, but it has also inspired countless people to strive for higher levels. In this year-end bonus distribution, Qiao Weiwei and Ma Lijuan, as the backbone of the company's senior management, both at the C8 level, received a year-end bonus of 80 yuan. They smiled at each other, feeling that a year of hard work had finally paid off. Similarly, some senior technical personnel in the technical department, such as several T15 and T16 level technical experts.
He also received a year-end bonus of 70 to 80 yuan, becoming the focus of discussion throughout the company. For some young T5 to T7 level engineers, the year-end bonus is between 10 and 20 yuan, which is already considered a very generous treatment. According to the level stratification, the year-end bonus is paid in stages, and the specific amounts are as follows: C10/T20 top level: 100 million yuan. C8/T16: RMB 80. C5/T10: RMB 50. C3/T5: RMB 10. C1/T3 and below: less than RMB 5. Such a clear ladder structure not only allows employees to see the incentives for promotion, but also allows them to clearly know the direction of their efforts. Qiao Weiwei arranged for people to transfer all year-end bonuses to employees' accounts before the Spring Festival. The day before New Year's Eve, except for a few staff who stayed on duty, all other employees of the company had gone on holiday. The WeChat groups of various departments were almost buzzing with excitement, with everyone sending out red envelopes to celebrate. Some people even posted screenshots of their year-end bonuses arriving in the group. "80! So exciting! This is the first time I've received so much in so many years!" Ma Lijuan couldn't help but send a message in the management group to celebrate. Xiao Li from the technical department also sighed in the technical group: "I am only T5, but I actually got a 10 yuan year-end bonus this year. I am so happy! I feel like I came to the right company!" Lao Zhang from the R&D department, who is at level T12, sent a message with a smile: "Brothers, roll up your sleeves and work hard! Next year we will strive to reach T15! The year-end bonus is not a dream!" Many employees discussed their goals for the new year in the group, agreeing to continue working hard in the new year, constantly improving their levels, and striving to get higher year-end bonuses next year. On the eve of New Year's Eve, Qiao Weiwei and Ma Lijuan finally finished their work and left the company with joy in their hearts. The two of them happened to be going the same way, so they walked towards the subway station together. Qiao Weiwei smiled and said to Ma Lijuan: "Lijuan, you really have to treat yourself well this time! An 80 yuan year-end bonus is incredible just to think about it!" Ma Lijuan opened her eyes wide and couldn't help but cover her mouth and laugh: "Don't talk about you, when I received the text message from the bank, I was so scared that I didn't dare to click on it to read it!" “I was afraid I had read it wrong, so I checked my account balance and found it was true.” The two looked at each other and couldn't help laughing. This number was indeed a surprising reward for them. Looking back on the hard work over the past year, it seems that it was all worth it in an instant. "How about we go out for a trip during the Spring Festival?" Qiao Weiwei's eyes sparkled with excitement. "Change places and relax completely! Anyway, this bonus is enough for a luxury!" Ma Lijuan blinked excitedly, but then hesitated: "Okay, but you know those two people in my family, my parents, have been looking forward to my spending the New Year at home." "Alas, working people like us can only spend time with our families during the Chinese New Year." Qiao Weiwei smiled and nodded, saying with understanding: "Indeed, we work hard outside all year round, and we would feel bad if we don't go home to spend the New Year with our parents."
"But to be honest, I haven't saved any money in all these years, and this is the first time I've received such a large bonus. I can't believe it!" Ma Lijuan echoed the sentiment: "Yes, 80! I never dared to think about it before." "That's good. I can buy my parents a bigger refrigerator. I always thought the refrigerator they use is too old." Qiao Weiwei nodded, her eyes softened, "Me too. I'm planning to buy a massage chair for my mother. She always complains about shoulder pain, and this time I can satisfy her." "Besides, our families are looking forward to our return for the New Year, so that they can be reunited." They walked and talked, and before they knew it, they felt more and more relaxed. Just in front of the subway station, Ma Lijuan suddenly grabbed Qiao Weiwei's arm and couldn't help but smiled softly, "You say... Is this year-end bonus intended by Mr. Lu to intimidate us old employees?" "So much bonus money, all at once, aren't you afraid that it will scare us silly?" "We can do more of this kind of show of power." Qiao Weiwei burst out laughing: "I thought so too! When I got the prize money, I was so surprised and happy that even my mother suspected that I had won the lottery." Ma Lijuan couldn't help laughing and said: "Why don't we just stay at home and show off our wealth!" "Let my family see how hard I worked this year and it finally paid off." The two became happier and happier as they talked, as if all the fatigue from work had been swept away. Ma Lijuan suddenly suggested: "How about this, on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, we go to a hot spring hotel in the south?" "Anyway, with this bonus, I would be sorry for myself if I didn't live a little more extravagantly." Qiao Weiwei's eyes lit up and she clapped her hands in agreement: "Great! By then the holiday will be over, we can bring our families and relax together." "Anyway, I have the year-end bonus in hand, so I can live comfortably anyway!" They became more and more excited as they talked, and their hearts were full of anticipation for the new year. On the other side, Lu Shan entered the Singularity Laboratory carrying several large bags of beautifully packaged Jiangzhou specialty New Year goods. I haven't been to the laboratory for a long time, and I don't know how the three elderly people are doing. In the laboratory, three scientists were busy debugging data in front of their computers and were completely unaware of Lu Shan's arrival. Poincare looked up and saw Lu Shan coming in, his eyes lit up: "Oh, what delicious food did he bring!" Lu Shan put down the New Year goods in his hand and said with a smile: "The New Year is coming soon, I came to bring you some Jiangzhou New Year flavor. You are usually busy with work, thank you for your hard work." Turing glanced at the things piled on the table and couldn't help but move closer out of curiosity. He reached out and flipped through it. "Hey, isn't this hot dry noodles? There's also pepper beef jerky. I saw it online a few days ago!" Lu Shan nodded, "Yes, this is specially brought from an old store outside, it has the most authentic taste." "You guys usually spend your time researching in the lab, so you should try some of the flavors from home to satisfy your cravings." Poincare smelled the fragrant aroma and couldn't help swallowing his saliva. "This is just right. I'm hungry!" Turing couldn't help but roll his eyes and said, "What are you, a heroic spirit, starving for?"
Poincare also came over with a smile, picked up a pack of spicy noodles, and said with emotion: "Oh, the spicy taste of Jiangzhou is really unique." "Everyone come and try it." Lu Shan smiled and said, "My dear elders, research and development is a tough job. You should relax during the Spring Festival. We should follow the local customs and celebrate the Spring Festival in advance." The three of them were discussing the New Year's goods, and Marie Curie picked up a bag of beef jerky. After sniffing it carefully, "This beef jerky is quite fragrant! It has a bit of a Nordic flavor." Lu Shan smiled and said, "That's exactly what I mean. Since everyone works so hard, I want to make sure you have a festive New Year every year." He paused and continued, "I know you guys who are doing scientific research don't like to be disturbed, but don't forget to enjoy life." "Relax on New Year's Eve, and continue to work hard after the New Year!" Turing couldn't help but jokingly said, "Come on, enslave us next year!" Poincare ate his noodles in big mouthfuls and said, "What do you mean by slavery? That sounds so ugly. This is called equal exchange." Lu Shan smiled and waved his hand: "No problem! As long as you are still willing to work hard for Singularity Labs, Jiangzhou's delicious food will be prepared for you every year!" Everyone was laughing happily. Marie Curie, who was usually taciturn, also came to join in the fun. Several people gathered together to discuss how to make a sumptuous dinner using the delicacies Lu Shan brought. "By the way, Mr. Lu," Poincare said after taking a bite of hot dry noodles, "the New Year's goods you brought this time are really awesome. In addition to these traditional delicacies, did you bring anything special?" Lu Shan smiled and patted the bag in his hand: "I also brought some Jiangzhou sausages, and I'm going to make some side dishes for everyone to eat." "There are also some brown sugar glutinous rice cakes, rice cakes and so on. The New Year flavor of Jiangzhou is just as good." "Great! It would be even better if there were sausages!" Poincare said excitedly, "I really haven't eaten these things from my hometown for a long time." Turing couldn't help but hit back: "Your hometown is in Nanxi, France, not Jiangzhou." "It's Jiangzhou now." Poincare studied the brown sugar rice cake and retorted. "Let's not just talk about food, let's talk about business." Turing joked while eating beef jerky, "What's the situation outside now?" Lu Shan talked about the current progress of several important scientific and technological industries. Turing was somewhat dissatisfied. The progress is too slow. The ecological development of the system did not meet Turing's expectations. Turing was also not satisfied with the efficiency. Poincare said: "I am speaking from the heart. The pace of scientific research cannot be rushed. The key lies in long-term accumulation. We cannot rush into anything." "I agree with that." Marie Curie nodded. "Scientific research results are not achieved overnight. We still need to strengthen talent training. You can't do it all by yourself. Don't overwork yourself."
Mary is a girl, and she is more concerned about Lu Shan's mental state. He picked up a cup of warm tea, took a sip, and suddenly the system interface appeared in his mind. [Academic works and scientific and technological products: early scientific and technological achievements folding, topological semimetal memory, zero point conjecture, Riemann conjecture] Lu Shan glanced at the introduction of these achievements. Topological semimetal memory, zero-point conjecture, and even the Riemann hypothesis. 【Heroic scientists: Henri Poincare, Turing, Marie Curie】 Lu Shan took a deep breath and looked at the score bar at the top of the screen: [Academic and technology points: 34129 points] [Laboratory level: LV3, sophisticated laboratory] [Heroic Spirit Slot: 3 (empty 0)] These points are undoubtedly the most important resources for him. The Zemeng operating system and COCO assistant contributed a huge number of points some time ago. Upgrading the laboratory level, unlocking more functions, and activating heroes all require points. Now, more and more points are required to upgrade the laboratory or unlock new technologies. After a year of hard work, we finally accumulated these points. The laboratory equipment is constantly being upgraded, and we have achieved more and more scientific research results. Now, the system gives new options. A message popped up on the screen: [System notification: Do you want to consume 20000 points to upgrade the laboratory?] (End of this chapter)
