Chapter 421: Dividends
January 10th.
With two weeks to go before the traditional Chinese New Year, Dahua held the 1993 annual celebration in advance.
Due to the large number of people, the venue of the conference was changed from the headquarters of Dahua Industrial to the gymnasium in the city. With the arrangement of tens of thousands of seats and the issuance of invitation letters, Yang Ming, who was busy, had a green face, and finally completed all the work before the deadline.
Before 11 o'clock, people arrived one after another with tickets.
Rong Shangguo, the general manager of Jiangnan Shipyard, and Lu Fatzi, his vice president, also set off on time.
When I saw the glass roof of the gymnasium, the car was forced to stop.
The driver looked at it and replied, "There are policemen who want our documents and tickets." ”
The secretary hurriedly looked for it in his bag. Lu Fatzi looked at the car window for a while, and said in surprise: "Genuine police, and armed police." Good guy, what does Dahua want to do?"
"Maybe there are a lot of people coming. Rong Shangguo knew that there were many people attending the party, but he didn't expect that Su Cheng would find Jin on the spot.
This decision shocked the Shanghai Municipal Public Security Bureau. If it weren't for the good enough maintenance of the relationship by the Dahua Public Relations Department, such activities would definitely not be approved.
Similarly, withdrawing 300 million yuan in one go is also a considerable impact on banks. In 1992 or 1993, the bank could have 100,000 yuan in cash for ordinary savings, even if it was too much, and the branch could not necessarily have one million.
300 million yuan, all exchanged for 100 yuan banknotes, a total of 3 million, 100 stacks of 30,000 stacks. Stacked together, 300 million yuan will be more than 3 cubic meters and weigh more than 3 tons.
That is, the financial city of Shanghai, if you change it elsewhere, it will be difficult for Sioux City to get so much money even if you find a relationship. It is possible that the bank does not dare to collect it.
In spite of this, the Public Security Bureau was still treading on thin ice, not only dispatching people's police to be on duty in accordance with Dahua's requirements, but also dispatching two teams of armed police soldiers, and several roads leading to the gymnasium inevitably set up checkpoints, and the inspection was strict, as if they were going to the barracks, and they didn't even want to go in without an invitation.
Rong Shangguo's Audi 100 is currently a good car in China, and at ordinary times, the car mark is a pass, and there are not many opportunities to be stopped for inspection.
Now looking at the police who carefully checked the driver's license, driving license and ticket, Rong Shangguo was quite surprised, and he couldn't help but be a little curious about the nature of this party.
Not only the thousands of suppliers he invited, but they all felt a different atmosphere.
Whether it is a supplier who has been rejected for payment or a supplier who has not submitted a payment application, those who have time and are not too far away have almost all come.
They also want to see what the situation of Dahua's party is, and further, they want to see what the situation of Dahua Shipbuilding is like.
In fact, compared with other companies, Dahua's supply chain is quite stable, and only 300 of the more than 2,000 suppliers require early payment, which is not easy from the perspective of businessmen. However, most vendors are on the sidelines. If Dahua Shipbuilding is dragged to death by the nine ships on the new order, they will not be buried with them.
Most of the suppliers who can't hold back are new entrants. On the one hand, they are less affected by historical factors, and on the other hand, they are also small profits. Sioux City understands their mentality. It is one thing to ask a supplier with assets of 50 million to defer the payment of 1 million, and it is another thing to ask a supplier with assets of 1 million to defer the payment of 800,000 yuan. Through the means of dividends, to prove that your financial resources are worry-free, it is naturally the most moderate method.
Huo Chang and others agreed with both hands on this move. Early dividends will not hinder anything, but it can solve a big problem of the group, which can be said to be a mature political skill.
Rong Shangguo couldn't figure out what medicine was sold in the gourd in Sucheng, so he silently came to the stadium and waited in the lounge to close his eyes and recuperate.
After a while, Zhong Zhigen heard the news and came to receive him, and Rong Shangguo chatted with him every sentence.
At 12 noon, the melodious athletes' march sounded.
Rong Shangguo stepped on the familiar steps and stepped into the gymnasium.
I saw Su Cheng standing in the place where the pillar of light was focused, and there were three piles of things spread out flat in front of him, covered with cloth.
The seats surrounding the stadium were full of people, including Dahua's suppliers and Dahua's employees, and there were tens of thousands of them.
Rong Shangguo participated in many celebrations, but he didn't care, and sat in his place with peace of mind, waiting for the ceremony to proceed.
After a few short minutes, it was Sioux City's turn to speak.
He picked up the microphone, smiled first, and then said: "Today's Zhujie Conference is actually a dividend conference, and many people know about it." First of all, I would like to thank all of you for your hard work in the past year, which has enabled Dahua Industrial's sales to exceed 20 billion yuan and make a profit of more than 12% ......"
There was a round of applause below.
It's more of a buzzing voice.
Rong Shangguo was also dumbfounded. Lu Fatzi repeated stupidly: "Dahua's sales are 20 billion, and the profit is 2.4 billion?"
Dahua Industrial Group is not a listed company, so it is not required to disclose financial reports and other information. In addition, he has a company abroad, and the outside world's speculation about Dahua is always hazy, and only a few closely related upstream and downstream manufacturers can roughly judge Dahua's income.
However, 20 billion is still unthinkable for many.
Unbeknownst to them, the total profit is much higher than that. Most of the year's earnings were reinvested in investment and research and development. A large part of the cost is the depreciation of equipment such as large petrochemicals.
In addition, the appreciation of some assets was not reflected in the year. For example, the bright prospect of real estate appreciation is far from apparent. Combined with next year's accruals and considerable taxes, it was a "normal" profit of 12%.
For Sioux City, there are many non-group personal gains. The main thing is high-risk futures trading, as well as earnings from Russia, his personal account and company account, which are likewise separated.
The Dahua employees in the audience began to desperately calculate the amount of dividends. Zhang Liangguo, an old shipwright, pinched his fingers and said to himself: "5 billion, oops, 5 billion." 30% of the more than 7%, how do you calculate that?"
His apprentice Xiao Jiang said enviously: "That's 30% of 5% of 20 billion, 300 million." ”
"300 million!" Zhang Liangguo was stunned and said busily: "Then you calculate how much I can take?"
"Isn't there a formula and a table? You look at the corresponding years and working hours of several levels of workers, as well as the rating and excellent rate...... Xiao Jiang is not eligible for dividends, he is not included in the dividend list of "with his own invention, ability, diligence, loyalty or special work, for the success of Dahua Industrial Group", can only look at the master, and look forward to and regret.
Zhang Liangguo was at the top of the list, his mathematics was average, and he couldn't see clearly in the dim environment of the gymnasium, so he simply told Xiao Jiang to let him calculate.
Although Xiao Jiang is his apprentice, he doesn't fully know the master's various scores, so at this time, he adds and subtracts it, and compares it on the back of the invitation.
The result was easy to find, but it scared Xiao Jiang.
Zhang Liangguo saw that his expression was wrong, and hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?"
"Master, you seem to be able to take 3/10,000. ”
"How much is that?"
"Ninety thousand!" Xiao Jiang spoke, and his tail voice was trembling.
"Nine...... 10,000?"
"Ninety thousand, I counted it twice. ”
"Count again, you bastard, what if you miscalculate. Zhang Liangguo's joy was difficult to add. Last year, because of the investment in Dahua Petrochemical and Dahua Gas Company, Dahua Industrial Group made less profits, and Zhang Liangguo "only" received 150,000 yuan.
Even so, he was happy like a child.
15,000 is his salary for the past three years, and it is his wife's salary for 10 years.
As soon as the money arrived, the problems of the children getting married and the elderly seeing a doctor were all solved.
Zhang Liangguo secretly hopes that this year's dividend will exceed 20,000 yuan.
However, when the amount became 90,000 yuan, Zhang Liangguo began to wonder what to do.
This is too much money, will there be a problem?
So many people know about it, it seems to be a bit too dazzling.
Zhang Liangguo, who was a worker in a state-owned enterprise for the first half of his life, had never considered the matter of revealing his wealth before. Factories are all paid by the state, how much salary and how many benefits, look at your own, you can guess others, the factory manager is no exception, at most get a little travel expenses, eat and drink a little. In the whole factory, who has money and who doesn't, just ask the work unit, the dual-income family is definitely richer than the single-worker family, but if there is a power supply station or the military and other high-welfare departments to work, life will be slightly better, but that's it.
It is not that there is more money to talk about pomp and circumstance in front of people, but that there is little food behind the scenes. People don't think that they have less money, maybe they are just stingy.
Zhang Liangguo never expected that he would get 90,000 yuan one day, wouldn't that be equal to 90,000 yuan?
"Settled?" Zhang Liangguo sighed in a low voice, and with the help of a little light, he also went to the watch.
It wasn't until the fourth confirmation that he breathed a sigh of relief, and at the same time unbuttoned and left his clothes open. The heat all over his body made him sweat inadvertently.
At this time, the leaders of all parties also began to come forward one by one, and when the whole process was over, Su Cheng stood under the pillar of light again, and he didn't say much, only said: "Now, we start to distribute dividends, and the employees who call their names please come to the stage to receive the money." ”
After speaking, he waved his hand and rolled up the gray cloth in front of him.
Below, there are three piles of 100-dollar bills that are blue and dusty.
Stack upon stack, stack upon stack, tightly packed, vivid and quiet, like three beds made of money.
In the gymnasium, there was a sudden silence, and the silent pin drop could be heard.
A few seconds later, the people who were staring with bated breath "exhaled" in unison, as if they had been trained.
In 1993, a wave of money swept the country.
The power of capital can't wait to start breathing.
