Chapter 1988: Chapter 1811: The 400 Billion Target Shanghai Stock Market. Park. "Look quickly! We have it too!" "What?" "Bonuses." "What?" "Let me see, we really do!" "..." In an instant. Tens of thousands of scientific researchers became happy. A month. They have already adapted to this salary model, waking up every day, seeing the numbers growing in the app’s background, feeling invigorated, checking before going to bed, thinking about tomorrow’s increase, sleeping well. Very touched. In fact. They hadn’t expected to receive an annual bonus; after all, although Hummingbird Commerce started operating and was creating profits, as for them? Over a month, hardly any projects reached completion. Naturally. There shouldn’t be an annual bonus. However. When refreshed today. Whoa! Added year-end fee. Fifteen thousand. Per person. Although it can’t match those with tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands, it’s still an encouragement, representing the company’s acknowledgment of their value, thinking about this fills their hearts with warmth, following such a boss is motivating. This year. Must work hard. Complete projects. By year-end. The annual bonus will definitely be a pleasant number, they believe in Tang Qing, and they also believe in their own abilities, perhaps with some effort, they could afford a house in their hometown. Keep it up. 2009. ... Qingyuan Technology. Headquarters. "Last year." "Our performance was leading among peers, but the gap with the second place is getting smaller, ERV, Huawei, Samsung, Nokia... they are all catching up." "2009." "We have three goals." "First, break 400 billion in revenue." "Second, sell over ten million units of the Epoch second-generation smart device." "Third, create an Epoch Intelligent Devices Ecosystem." "..." Today. Marked the last meeting before the festival, hosted by Luo Qiang, the year before last, Qingyuan Technology achieved a sales target of 100 billion, last year, over 200 billion, and this year, directly aiming for 400 billion. Very high. However. Luo Qiang is confident. Because. He has to be, mobile phones, tablets, computers, are Qingyuan Technology’s three main sources of profit, even the last launched computers have increasing market shares, with a promising outlook. billion? Isn’t very difficult anymore. Naturally. The target is set at 400 billion to motivate everyone, otherwise, it could lead to complacency, and this number wasn’t just made up; it was derived from relatively scientific evaluations. Taking the upper-middle value. After all. Tasks that are impossible to complete are meaningless. Moreover. This year has too many projects to launch. Ecosystem. Wide scope. It almost covers the main electrical appliances at home, as well as some new technological applications; after this year, by 2010, Qingyuan Technology will become a comprehensive tech company. 𝒻𝘳ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝒷𝘯ℴ𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝑐ℴ𝑚 "Alas!" Thinking of the scientific research team led by Tang Qing. Luo Qiang sighed deeply. His own BOSS. Knows how to make money. Even better at spending it. A perfectly good mobile phone company, even helicopters, satellites, submersibles, mining equipment need to be made, spending money like it’s nothing, to this, Luo Qiang can only console himself: as long as the boss is happy. Opposition? A joke. Who dares. Can only accompany, besides, would they have better insight than Tang Qing? Moreover, from the day the park was established, Tang Qing conveyed his ’wishes’, letting them know that Tang Qing’s vision is very high. "As for the Annual Meeting, speed up the preparations." Making money. Of course, there should be celebrations, the location is set in the park, there is a large sports field there, fully equipped, doesn’t even need an outsourcing company, the company can handle it themselves, and create their own programs. Cost-effective. Lively. "Lastly, ensure the work arrangements during the Spring Festival, as well as the employee welfare, after all, during holidays, we can rest, but sales work will still proceed." "Dismiss." ... Noon. After getting off work. Zhang Jing didn’t go to the cafeteria, but returned home, right diagonally opposite the headquarters, very close; previously, because their mother was also working, they wouldn’t return home for lunch, now that her younger sister is back for winter break, someone is there to cook. "Click!" Unlocking. Opening the door. A waft of delicious food aroma greeted her. "Sis." Living room. After cooking, her sister was playing on her mobile phone. "Come eat." "Okay." "Sis, how much is your annual bonus?" her sister curiously asked after sitting down, the whole morning, she swiped the headlines many times, seeing people from Sky Eye showing off their bonuses made her itch. "Heh." Zhang Jing smiled slightly. Today. In the morning, the entire company was filled with joy, she was no exception, that generous year-end award, especially for frontline sales departments, the bonuses made her extremely envious. "Come on, tell me!" "Not much." "How much?" "Twelve." "Twelve thousand?" "What else." "That’s a lot." Her sister’s eyes shone with light; in Qingyan City, where even three thousand is considered a decent salary, a twelve thousand annual bonus is a big deal, although in Sky Eye, it may not seem that exceptional. "Not bad." Zhang Jing remained calm. There’s no way around it. Compared to the frontline sales departments, her position doesn’t get high year-end bonuses, if she hadn’t helped the business department during their busy year-end period, it definitely wouldn’t have been this high. Max six or seven thousand. Now. Their effort was reciprocated. Twelve thousand. Can be considered medium-high level, managing ten to twenty people, frontline sales department managers start at twenty thousand, usually thirty to forty thousand, Zhang Jing knows that it’s because they are very capable. In Sky Eye. Frontline sales departments consist of elites among elites. Either with high qualifications. Or enough experience. Or strong abilities. There’s no one idle, she is already content with her current salary, also she must keep learning, Sky Eye’s reputation attracts more and more outstanding employees. If not working hard. Though it wouldn’t lead to dismissal, there’s no face to meet Tang Qing. "When is it paid?" "On the twenty-third." "Wait, is this the annual bonus, or also including the salary?" "Just the bonus." "Then including salary and holiday bonus?" "Fifteen thousand." "Wow!" "We’ll have to deduct several thousand for taxes." "Wow... Oh!" Instantly. Her sister’s expression became tangled, she finally understood why many want to evade taxes, several thousand, for many it’s equivalent to a year’s wages being gone, but paying taxes is the duty of every citizen. Just accept it. Thinking about it. Those with million-dollar bonuses. "..." A car is gone. Boo hoo. I also want to pay tens of thousands in taxes. ... Evening. Manor. Having dinner. "Brother." "Hm?" "I’m a student, can I not pay tax?" Thinking of having to pay thousands in taxes made Qin Shiqi feel distressed, previously, barely paying any tax due to low wages as a temp worker, she didn’t even notice. This time. Over twenty thousand. Thinking about it. Heartache. "No, you can’t." "Is there a way to avoid tax?" "No." "..." The food. Just no longer tasted as good. Plus. Thinking about some being deducted by tax before receiving, then having to hand over most to her mother, today’s happiness upon seeing the annual bonus was completely gone, sigh, heaven, is it easy for a girl to make some money? "Boom!" A thunder, illuminating the whole sky.
