Chapter 81: New Company, New Beginning

At 9:30 a.m. on Monday morning, the company held an all-staff meeting.

The notice of the meeting was given by General Manager Li to Xu Xincheng last Friday afternoon, and he did not say the specific content of the meeting, he only said in WeChat: "This is a very, very, very important meeting." This is the first time since the establishment of Hongfei AI Business Unit that General Manager Li has used three "very" to describe the importance of a meeting.

The company's largest conference room can only accommodate more than 700 people, and it is completely sufficient to hold a marketing conference or technical seminar here, but the company has a total of more than 2,300 people, and it is simply impossible to squeeze in a general meeting of all employees.

It is the first time to hold an all-staff meeting in the company's office building, and the all-staff meeting was held before, each time it was necessary to prepare for a week or even two or three weeks in advance, and it was necessary to rent a large conference hall in a hotel near the company, but this time the time was too tight, and the meeting time was fixed, and there was no room for flexibility, Xu Xincheng asked all five hotels near the creative park, and they could not rent the conference hall, and finally, he suggested that it be held in the company, and General Manager Li agreed to his proposal.

Although it was the first time, and there were many disadvantages such as having to prepare live broadcast equipment in a short time, it was not difficult for him, and it was even more difficult for a high-tech company like theirs.

Last Saturday, he made a series of arrangements, this morning to the company, Xu Xincheng and the company's five technical staff together in the large conference room to install live broadcast equipment, the picture of the meeting will be broadcast live in the company's small conference room, the picture will also be through the company developed a conference APP to achieve online real-time live broadcast, the company owners can also watch on their own computers and mobile phones, but also through the following dialog box to ask questions and interact.

At 9:30 a.m., the meeting began.

"Good morning everyone!" General Manager Li said loudly, after speaking, he looked around the crowded venue, usually can only sit more than 700 people in the conference room, today but squeezed down almost 900 people, many people stood on both sides of the conference room and the back of the passage, since the opening of the company, everyone so actively participated in the meeting is the first time.

In the notice of the meeting, Xu Xincheng directly quoted the eight words "very, very, very important" that General Manager Li said in his WeChat account, so as to emphasize the importance of the meeting, so everyone is looking forward to the content of this meeting.

General Manager Li took a sip of tea in the thermos cup to moisten his throat, showed a big smile on his face, and said loudly: "Today, I have very good and very important news to announce to you. ”

He made eye contact with all the department managers sitting next to him, and then looked around the blackened room again, their eyes filled with excitement, joy, and anticipation.

In fact, most of the people in the company have already heard some news to a greater or lesser extent, and as soon as they arrived at the company this morning, they curiously inquired around and inquired about the news from several department managers who went to Shenzhen to attend the meeting last week. At this time, many people already had a rough idea of the main content of the "very good, very important news", and at this moment, they were anxiously waiting for General Manager Li to officially announce it to them to confirm whether the news they heard was true.

General Manager Li raised his voice a little more and solemnly announced the blockbuster news that everyone was looking forward to: "Our Hongfei Group Headquarters has decided to establish a new joint venture with New World Capital, Sino-US Xinfei Artificial Intelligence Technology Co., Ltd. And our company, our AI division, will be separated from the group and merged into this new company, becoming the backbone of this new company. ”

The atmosphere of the venue suddenly became warm, and everyone present began to talk excitedly, from the beginning of the whispered conversation in twos and threes, it quickly turned into a group of enthusiastic discussions, and some people even couldn't help shouting "Great".

Almost everyone in the audience became excited and excited, only Manager Zhang, who went to Shenzhen to attend the headquarters meeting, and several department managers seemed a little calmer, and Xu Xincheng, who also seemed relatively calm, he had been excited yesterday.

In fact, until just now, he was still in a trance, and he was not 100% sure that what happened yesterday was not a dream, and just now, General Manager Li's words confirmed that what happened yesterday was indeed not a dream, but a reality.

General Manager Li continued: "Our new company will focus on R&D and sales of AI applications and products, with the goal of becoming the world's leading AI technology company. ”

At this moment, everyone in the audience finally couldn't help but applaud, and many people shouted "yes!" and "great!", and the applause of the venue was thunderous, and thunderous applause and cheers resounded throughout the entire five-story building. This is the first time that the company has such a warm scene, everyone is applauding excitedly, their faces are full of excitement and joy, their eyes are shining, and everyone's eyes are full of anticipation and confidence for a better future.

The applause and applause lasted for about a minute before gradually subsided, and General Manager Li sighed: "The establishment of a new company this time is a new challenge, a new opportunity, and a new beginning for us. ”

Then, he told everyone about the expectations of the group headquarters, hoping that everyone would have greater achievements and contributions on a bigger platform in the newly founded company.

Finally, he said: "This meeting is an internal news conference, and the specifics of starting a new company are still being discussed, and it will take some time. Next, once there is definite news and confirmed matters, a separate meeting will be held to inform everyone. Please guard against impatience and continue to work with peace of mind and work in a down-to-earth manner. ”
