Chapter 360: Such a New Era

According to the "Lü's Spring and Autumn Ji Dong Ji", the ancients used the method of drumming to expel the "ghost of the plague" on the day before the New Year, which is the origin of the "Chinese New Year's Eve" festival. m. It is said that the earliest mention of the name "Chinese New Year's Eve" was in historical books such as the "Fengtu Ji" written by the Zhou Department of the Western Jin Dynasty.

Since ancient times, Chinese New Year's Eve has had customs such as staying awake all night, keeping the New Year, sticking the door god, pasting the Spring Festival, pasting New Year's pictures, hanging lanterns, etc., which have been passed down to this day and have endured for a long time.

Chinese New Year's Eve is extremely important for the people of the Celestial Empire. On this day, people prepare to remove the old and welcome the new, and have a reunion dinner. The family is the cornerstone of the Celestial Society, and the annual reunion dinner fully demonstrates the mutual respect and love of family members, and this mutual respect and love makes the relationship between the family closer.

There are more than 3,000 regular employees and interns in the Korn Ferry Group, and more than 500 people stay to work overtime, accounting for almost 20%.

Although the company has given three times the overtime pay and a separate bonus to encourage them, Jiang Hui feels that so many people can't go home during the Spring Festival, and it is not enough to give material rewards. So on the night of Chinese New Year's Eve, Jiang Hui rejected He Ling's idea of inviting him to her home for the New Year, and was ready to stay in the company cafeteria and spend the night of farewell and welcome the new with all employees.

Tang Minghua and Li Shigui have already arranged the activities for Chinese New Year's Eve. All employees who stay to work overtime can go to the cafeteria after work to participate in tonight's Chinese New Year's Eve, of course, if they have their own activities, they can not participate.

The cafeteria has prepared a variety of food and wine. At the same time, there is also a hands-on dumpling making activity.

On Chinese New Year's Eve, every family will fill a table with sumptuous New Year's dishes, gather their families, sit around the table, and have a reunion dinner. There are often big dishes, cold pots, hot stir-fries, and snacks on the table, and generally two things are indispensable, one is hot pot and the other is fish. The hot pot is boiling, steaming, warm and sultry, indicating that it is prosperous, and the homonym of "fish" and "yu" is a symbol of "more than auspicious celebrations", and also means "more than every year".

The same is true for the Korn Ferry Group's Chinese New Year's Eve dinner. In addition to some delicacies prepared in the cafeteria, there is a hot pot on each table for cooking dumplings and so on.

Jiang Hui also specially arranged personnel to set up projectors and other equipment, so that everyone could eat and drink while playing while watching the Spring Festival Gala.

Jiang Hui made a phone call to his parents, uncles and uncles and other relatives, and asked Jiang Ping to help give the various gifts he had bought to his relatives.

For more than a year after Jiang Hui went to college, Jiang Hui didn't tell his relatives about starting a company. Later, the company became bigger and bigger, and after Jiang Hui's father came home to the pig farm, Jiang Hui continued to give financial and technical support. Especially with the help of a team of experts from agricultural universities, ecological pig farms are already in shape.

Slowly, under the spread of some fellow villagers who also went to college outside, everyone finally knew that Jiang Hui was developed outside. When relatives and friends asked Jiang Hui about opening a company, Jiang Hui did not deliberately hide it.

This also indirectly improved the status of Jiang Hui's family in the village, and even the town and county are paying attention to Jiang Hui's ecological pig farm, and I don't know if the drunkard doesn't mean to drink.

After a phone call, Jiang Hui came to the cafeteria.

Red lanterns were hung all over the canteen, and although it was winter, Tang Minghua also purchased a large number of flowers to place in the canteen.

"Mr. Jiang, you probably have to be ready to sing on stage. I've heard that a lot of employees are ready to coax you to sing when the time comes," Zeng Qingying said.

Jiang Hui now has two secretaries, Zeng Qingying and Liao Yun. This time it was Zeng Qingying who stayed to work overtime, and Liao Yun had flown back to his hometown the day before yesterday.

"Sing just sing, the last thing I'm afraid of is singing," Jiang Hui said with a smile.

Since participating in the late autumn song party of Imperial Capital University of Technology, Jiang Hui has sung on stage at the group's year-end party a while ago, except for a few times when he sang at KTV. However, this does not mean that Jiang Hui's singing level is declining, but after his status has become higher, there are fewer opportunities, or fewer need to sing on stage.

The people in the canteen tonight are all company employees, Jiang Hui, as the boss, came to the stage to sing a few songs for these hard-working little bees who earn money for themselves, Jiang Hui is still very happy.

By six o'clock in the evening, most of the people who stayed had come to the cafeteria. Zeng Qingying and Tang Minghua personally took the stage to make guest appearances as hosts.

After the two of them simply warmed up, they invited Jiang Hui to the stage to give a speech to everyone.

Although Jiang Hui is only 20 years old this year, all the companies of the Korn Ferry Group were established under Jiang Hui's planning. As the founder and absolute majority shareholder of the company, Jiang Hui's prestige in various companies is very high. If Jiang Hui hadn't disclosed that he had a girlfriend, Bai Xue, it is estimated that there were a lot of beauties in various companies in the group who wanted to push Jiang Hui back.

In a burst of warm applause, Jiang Hui walked onto the small stage built temporarily.

"Dear friends, you have worked hard. Thank you very much for giving up the opportunity to reunite with your family for the sake of the company and staying in the company to work overtime.

The past 2004 was a year of harvest and a year of layout. In just one year, our group has grown rapidly from a small company with more than 100 employees to a medium-sized enterprise with more than 3,000 people. Among them, it is inseparable from everyone's hard work.

In the early days, Internet content was mainly in the form of text. As the bandwidth environment gets better and people's creativity becomes more and more abundant, we have started to have pictures, and our intranet is now the largest photo sharing center in the world.

To this day, it's not just pictures, it's also videos. The rise of short videos, the scenarios it applies to and the people it reaches are very different, and everyone can feel this change by going to Tudou to watch it more when they have time. We are on the front lines of the Internet, and we must be able to perceive changes in the content distribution environment before others.

……

Such a new era may have threats, challenges, and opportunities, and this is the future we are facing.

We have to prepare for it, and we have to find opportunities in it. I am also very confident that we will get better and better in such a brave new world. Finally, I wish you all a happy Chinese New Year, all wishes come true, thank you!".

Jiang Hui spoke freely on the stage for more than ten minutes, and was interrupted by everyone's applause many times in the middle.

After Jiang Hui spoke, the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner began.

Jiang Hui returned to his position, chatted with the surrounding people while eating for a while, then picked up the wine glass, and began to toast everyone with a few executives who stayed behind.

Fortunately, the toast is more of a symbolic drink, otherwise Jiang Hui would have to be drunk.

In the middle, without waiting for everyone to coax, Jiang Hui came on stage and sang a few songs to everyone. "Mice Love Rice", "Meet" and "Fly Higher" are all well-known songs. After Jiang Hui took the lead in singing, he quickly set off the atmosphere of the scene.

All the executives took the initiative to sing to the employees, which won bursts of applause.
