The annual meeting of the Oriental Group was chosen on the last day of the year, and although the group's logistics department directly chartered the entire Mandarin Oriental Hotel and prepared a full 200 tables for the entire dinner, it was still impossible for every employee of the group to have the opportunity to participate.

Because the scale of the Oriental Group is so large now, the total number of people recruited in Hong Kong by the Oriental Research Institute and the Oriental Game Company alone is far more than 5,000. In addition, there are a series of subsidiaries starting with the word "Oriental" such as Oriental Semiconductor, Oriental Commercial, Oriental System Software, Oriental Application Software, Oriental Venture Capital, etc., as well as Aikang Computer, CG (Computer Park) Company, Hong Kong Telephone, Jiahua Bank, Asian Entertainment Holdings, etc., although they are independently listed, they are absolutely controlled by Li Xuan.

According to the statistics of Hong Kong's "Hong Kong Economic Journal", there are more than 15,000 people in Hong Kong who directly work for Li Xuan. If we include those factories that indirectly work for Li Xuan, such as manufacturing computers, game consoles, televisions and other electronic products for the Oriental Group, as well as enterprises closely related to him, such as the peripheral enterprises in the electronics industry chain of the Oriental Group, the total number of people will exceed 500,000, accounting for almost one-tenth of the total population of Hong Kong.

Singapore is nicknamed Lee Ka Po by the outside world, because Singapore has been controlled by Lee Kuan Yew since independence in 1965, and he will pass on this inheritance to his son in the future. And now the same media has begun to openly ridicule Hong Kong as "Li Gang", and if the Eastern Bloc goes bankrupt now, the consequences will be far greater than the recent stock market crash.

With the rapid expansion of the Eastern Bloc. It's been a few years since the annual meeting was held in the name of the entire group, because the scale is really difficult to control. Like this time. The Oriental Group chartered the entire Mandarin Oriental Hotel and only set up 200 tables for the banquet. And these 200 tables. Just to invite partners and customers from the group's subsidiaries, as well as VIPs from all walks of life in Hong Kong, 80 seats need to be reserved.

The remaining 120 tables are divided evenly among dozens of subsidiaries within the group, and each company has less than 10 seats. Of course, it is impossible to distribute it evenly within the group, but even the Oriental Research Institute, which is most valued and favored by Li Xuan, is only allocated 20 seats.

According to the practice of the annual meeting of the Eastern Group, each employee can attend the annual meeting with one family member. So even the Oriental Research Institute actually only has 100 places to attend the annual meeting.

The total 100 places can be roughly divided into three parts. One-third of them will be used to reward the top performers in the past year. The other third is reserved for senior management, as well as special employees, such as those who will perform on behalf of their companies at the annual meeting.

The remaining one-third of the places will be determined by drawing lots for everyone. You must know that the Hong Kong headquarters of the Oriental Research Institute has more than 3,000 scientific researchers engaged in technology research and development. That is, the probability of winning the lottery is less than 1%, which shows how difficult it is to get an invitation to the annual meeting!

The Mandarin Oriental Hotel, located at 5 Connaught Road Central, in Central, stopped booking for today's stay a month ago. You must know that Chinese New Year's Eve is for the Hong Kong hotel industry. It has always been a small peak for occupancy, and the Eastern Group has paid a lot of price for it.

Since early this morning, the entire Mandarin Oriental Hotel has been busy with the grand annual meeting of the Oriental Group. The whole annual meeting is divided into two parts: morning and afternoon, and the morning is mainly for the group's senior management. Let's start with the year 1987. Then look ahead to the all-new 1988.

Listening to the dazzling performance data one after another, all the people who came to the meeting couldn't help but become enthusiastic. At the end of the morning session. Li Xuan took the stage and made a brief concluding speech, in which he described the brilliant achievements of the Eastern Bloc in the past year. Thanks to the correct decision-making and wise leadership of the senior team, and to the hard work of every employee!

And in order to repay everyone for their hard work. Li Xuan read out the new round of equity incentive plan to be implemented by the group on the spot. As the so-called honor is high, after all, it can't be eaten, and the reward of real money is the best way to win people's hearts.

Therefore, the whole meeting in the morning ended with a cheer, because the middle and senior management present here is one of the biggest beneficiaries of the equity incentive plan. Everyone's wealth will soon experience a new round of skyrocketing, and this year-end gift from Li Xuan is naturally very popular!

As soon as the meeting ended, Li Xuan left in a hurry, so that many subsidiary executives who wanted to show their faces in front of him lost the opportunity before they could react.

"Is there anything important Li Sheng has today?" Han Peng asked Du Wenqiang beside him curiously.

According to the original arrangement, in today's meeting, Li Xuan will make the most important year-end summary report. But last night, Han Peng suddenly received a call from Li Xuan, and he should read the report.

And today Li Xuan arrived at the scene almost in seconds, Han Peng is the number two person in the Eastern Group, so its actions are naturally arranged next to Li Xuan. He could clearly feel that his boss was a little tired today, and he was a little absent-minded throughout the meeting.

Although Han Peng and Li Xuan also had a very close relationship, the exchanges between the two were mainly focused on the business affairs of the Oriental Group. In terms of personal relationships, Du Wenqiang, who followed the boss from scratch, is obviously deeper with Li Xuan.

In the current Oriental Group, Li Xuan, in addition to some of the content that he pays special attention to, has already handed over the operation of the group to the senior management team headed by Han Peng.

After receiving Li Xuan's call last night, Han Peng specially inquired with the relevant parties, and did not find any special emergencies in the company. So he didn't think that his boss Lin's change of arrangement was due to the company's reasons, so he came out to ask Du Wenqiang for news.

"You'll know in the afternoon!" Du Wenqiang didn't say the reason directly, but smiled mysteriously.

Although Han Peng was still confused, judging from Du Wenqiang's expression, he at least guessed that something bad had happened. So for Du Wenqiang's tricks. He had no choice but to smile helplessly and didn't take it to heart.

The morning session begins at 9 a.m. It lasted almost two hours. All the top management of the entire Eastern Bloc, as well as the main leaders of the individual companies. It's rare to have such an opportunity to get together.

Therefore, after the meeting, everyone did not leave the Mandarin Oriental Hotel, but gathered in small circles to continue the exchange. The hotel also arranged an exquisite luncheon in a small banquet hall, but Li Xuan did not show up, which also disappointed some people!

If the morning meeting was still a little serious, the carnival that began in the afternoon became completely very enthusiastic. For ordinary employees, the annual meeting is a grand party, and the activities in it can be described as wonderful.

"Oh, didn't the dinner party start at seven o'clock in the evening, why did you call me so early?" a beautiful woman soon found her boyfriend at the entrance of the Central subway. When he walked up to the other party, he began to grumble.

"Do you think that the annual meeting of our Eastern Group is just a dinner, it is really too superficial! In order to hold today's annual meeting, do you guess how much money our group has invested?" Zou Wenrong said, proudly stretching out two fingers.

"Two million?" his girlfriend pouted, revealing a look of some fuss.

"Two million? Ha, is it twenty million! Who do you think my boss is! That's the 'God of Wealth Li'!" Zou Wenrong returned the other party's disdainful expression just now to the other party untouched.

This woman is actually not Zou Wenrong's girlfriend, because although he launched a crazy pursuit offensive, the other party behaved as if he was leaving. Women will always worship only the strong. And she thinks that she works at HSBC, and she doesn't think very much of Zou Wenrong, who works at Sun Hung Kai Securities.

Zou Wenrong, as a master of the sister, knows very well that at this time, he must show something to shock the other party. Otherwise, this seduction operation will be considered a failure. As the saying goes, drowsiness meets a pillow, and when Zou Wenrong was thinking about how to surprise the other party, Sun Hung Kai Securities was merged by Asia Securities.

Although Sun Hung Kai Securities has just announced a merger with Asia Securities a few years ago. Both companies haven't even had time to start a concrete business integration. But Sun Hung Kai Securities employees have nominally become part of the Oriental family.

So Zou Wenrong and other former employees of Sun Hung Kai Securities. Naturally, like the employees of Asia Securities, they had the opportunity to attend the grand annual meeting of the Oriental Group. Although Zou Wenrong did not have the opportunity to compete for the places reserved for outstanding employees. But his luck was very good, and he was lucky to draw an invitation in the lottery!

"Later, all kinds of wonderful programs will make you dizzy! And you are not a fan of Zhou Runfa, Fa Ge's brokerage contract is signed in Asia Entertainment Company! And Asia Entertainment Holdings is also a subsidiary of Oriental Group, so Fa Ge is likely to appear at the annual meeting like me!"

Zou Wenrong looked at the girl beside him whose eyes began to sparkle, and knew that his goal had been achieved. But he continued to open it, and from the inside pocket of his suit, he pulled out a thin, beautifully printed little book.

"This is all the process arrangement of the annual meeting in the afternoon, you can turn to the last page and take a look at the program list of the theatrical performances that will start at 3 o'clock in the afternoon! Zhang Guorong, Tam Yonglin, and Mui Yanfang, the three hottest singers in Hong Kong, will perform on stage on behalf of Asia Entertainment Holdings!" Zou Wenrong said and handed the pamphlet to the other party.

When Zou Wenrong walked into the Mandarin Oriental Hotel with the girl who was stunned by his words just now, there were already many employees who had already arrived before him.

"Ah Rong, this way!"

Zou Wenrong suddenly heard a familiar voice calling out to himself, so he immediately turned his head and looked privately, and soon found that his colleague Gao Qiqi was standing not far away with a group of people, looking at him with a smile.

"This is my boyfriend Song Boliang, who works in Oriental Commerce!" Gao Qiqi saw the surprise in Zou Wenrong's eyes, so she generously pointed to a tall and handsome man beside her.

"Hello, I'm Song Boliang, thank you for taking care of my family Qiqi in the company!" Song Boliang took the initiative to reach out very politely and shook hands with Zou Wenrong.

"I'm a sworn enemy with Qiqi in the company, I didn't expect her to have such a powerful boyfriend, otherwise I would have obeyed her a long time ago!" Zou Wenrong naturally smiled kindly.

"It's not too late to know now! I can tell you, my family Ah Liang used to be on the basketball team of the University of Hong Kong, and he played very well, and he was not bad at beating people! If you dare to go against me in the future, be careful that I let Ah Liang clean you up!" Gao Qiqi raised her head proudly.

"Kiki, how do I feel that your words sound weird, Ah Liang used to be on the college basketball team, but he was in charge of playing or beating people!" Another man next to him interjected, causing everyone to laugh.

"These are Ah Liang's colleagues and friends, and the one who spoke was Liu Chang, who worked at Oriental Venture Capital! The bespectacled beauty next to him was his wife, Han Ying, who worked at Jiahua Bank! Another handsome guy was Han Ying, who worked at the Oriental Research Institute. The beauty next to him is his wife Fang Qianqian!

This Fang beauty is not simple, she used to work at the headquarters of the Oriental Group, and now she has resigned to become her own boss, she is a rich woman with a net worth of tens of millions!" Gao Qiqi began to introduce other people standing together to her colleagues.

Gao Qiqi's boyfriends Song Bailiang and Fang Qianqian are alumni of the same year of the University of Hong Kong, and the two have known each other since they were students. Later, after graduation, he joined the Oriental Group at the same time, and when he was first trained, Liu Wei, Fang Qianqian and Song Boliang happened to be in the same group, so they slowly formed a friendship!

"Tell me about the beautiful girl next to you!" Gao Qiqi's gaze swept over Zou Wenrong's hand on the waist of her female companion, and then glanced at Zou Wenrong with a smile.

"This beautiful girl's name is Cai Tong, and she is already cooking!" Zou Wenrong said and took his female companion into his arms, as if he was declaring sovereignty in a high-profile manner.

"Who's your dish?" the girl named Cai Tong snorted, and then gently broke free from Zou Wenrong's hand, "Hello everyone, I'm Cai Tong, and I'm working at HSBC headquarters now!"

"Liu Wei is going to participate in the 'IQ Cup' bridge finals later, if you two are okay, just go cheer with us!" Song Bailiang pointed at Liu Wei and invited with a smile.

"Of course there is no problem, in fact, I am very curious about the 'IQ Cup', 'Dugu Defeat Cup', 'Thirteen Cup', who gave these Lei Ren names?" Zou Wenrong asked with some amusement. (To be continued.) )
