The next day, a meeting of all members was held in the laboratory. The person in charge of the laboratory, Tian Zhengliang, who was wearing a blue suit yesterday, made a summary, first talking about the lessons of confidential theft, and then summing up the credit of the laboratory. When Chen Tianliao heard this, he still frowned. He felt that Tian Zhengliang's summary of the official articles of this era was not in place, and could not reflect the value of these intellectuals present, let alone the value of their knowledge.

When it was Chen Tianliao's turn to speak, he first stood in front of the microphone, glanced around at the people around him, and then said: "I don't agree with all of Mr. Tian's words just now. Because he didn't realize what a great job he was doing. And, I am sure, you here are completely unaware of what kind of work you are doing.

"Although computers in our country are still treasures, computers in western developed countries have gradually become popular among ordinary people. Your invention will be used in almost every computer, and even in the future, many electronic products other than computers will use this invention. This patented flash memory industry will bring us hundreds of millions or even billions of foreign exchange earnings! That's your credit!"

And when they heard this, they all began to rejoice. Influenced by the scientists who selflessly dedicated themselves to the construction of the motherland in the first 30 years after the founding of the People's Republic of China, these scientific research workers all had a dream of becoming a rich country and a strong country. Therefore, they will heartily rejoice for the benefit of the country.

Chen Tianliao and the others calmed down, and said: "We all know that knowledge is power, but we never thought that the power of knowledge would be great. And now, you see it. You've created an industry worth billions of dollars a year, and over time, it's worth tens of billions of dollars. What a tremendous power it is.

"Why are Western countries doing better than us? Are their people more industrious than us? No. The industriousness of the Chinese people is the first in the world. Are they smarter than us? Not really. If you go to the schools in the United States, the people with the highest proportion of good academic performance are Asians, led by us Chinese. But why can they grab a steady stream of wealth from the whole world without having to work as hard as we do?

"Without our flash technology, the world would have been the world of Westerners' floppy disks as it is now, and these billions and billions of dollars of industry have nothing to do with us. That's why I'm going to invest a lot of money in your research, and I hate stealing secrets. If these materials are sold to foreigners, it can be said unceremoniously that those who steal the materials are traitors! At the same time, I also hope that everyone will be vigilant, strictly abide by the rules of the laboratory, and do not let people take advantage of loopholes and cause unnecessary losses!"

When they heard this, they all applauded.

After the applause subsided, Chen Tianliao continued: "Of course, I will not let everyone's hard work be in vain. Let everyone be a cow, eat grass, and squeeze out milk, which is not my style. I'd rather everyone be hunting dogs, eat meat, and harvest more meat at the same time. So, this time, I'm going to make good on the promise I made to you to reward the heroes. ”

Everyone's interest was aroused at once, and they all opened their eyes and listened carefully to Chen Tianliao reading out the reward.

The three first prize winners are Liu Cheng, Li Jinong and Shang Yongen. Liu Cheng is the chief engineer...... "Chen Tianliao began to read the exploits of the three people, and everyone listened with great interest. There is no laboratory leader Tian Zhengliang in the list of first prizes, but all front-line scientific and technological personnel, and everyone is also a little surprised. And Tian Zhengliang was calm. The list was submitted by himself, and he also realistically put himself in the ranks of the second prize. And he himself doesn't really attach much importance to this award, because his bonus depends more on business results.

After reading out the merits of the three first prize winners, Chen Tianliao read out the list of eight second prize winners and 21 third prize winners. After reading it, he smiled and said, "You're probably waiting for me to read out the prize, right?"

The crowd burst into laughter.

Chen Tianliao said: "Okay, I'll read out the prize." Employees who win the third prize will receive a bonus of 100,000 yuan each. Please come to the stage to receive the award!"

"Ah!" exclaimed everyone at the same time. In recent years, the bonus of 100,000 yuan is a lot, even if the ordinary public officials on the other side of the Xiangjiang River can earn so much money in almost eight or nine months, not to mention the salary level in Pengcheng. This award is too heavy, and it really deserves to be called a heavy award. After the exclamation, I don't know who took the lead in applauding, and in an instant, the warm applause almost overturned the small conference room.

The employees who won the third prize all walked up to the stage with joy, received the trophy, certificate and envelope containing the check from Chen Tianliao's hand, and then took a group photo together around a huge check model board. In this process, the applause came and went, and it never stopped.

Chen Tianliao was very satisfied with the results. He looked at the excited mood and warm eyes of the employees who applauded warmly, and knew in his heart that the heavy reward had an effect. When the applause subsided, everyone's mood became even more excited. Because the prizes for the second prize and the first prize have not yet come out.

Chen Tianliao looked at the expectant expressions on everyone's faces, stopped selling the guanzi, and announced: "The second prize, the bonus is 200,000 yuan, and a horse neighing car worth 150,000 yuan." At the same time, everyone enjoys a 0.5% patent dividend. "Ma Xi car is a joint venture brand of this time and space, and it is also the Huaguo God car of this time and space, which is very popular in the market. At this moment, everyone once again exclaimed, not counting the patent dividends that everyone didn't know, even the money and vehicle rewards on the surface, which also made people blush. Even if the salary in the special zone is much higher than that in the mainland, it will take more than ten or twenty years for ordinary civil servants to get this bonus!

The second prize winners led by Tian Zhengliang all came to the front desk to accept Chen Tianliao's awards. In addition to trophies, certificates and envelopes containing checks, there was also a string of bright car keys, which made everyone very greedy. The prizes were all prepared by Chen Tianliao early in the morning and handed over to Tian Zhengliang for purchase, and it was precisely because of this that they were able to get so many car keys at this time.

As soon as the second prize award ended, the atmosphere became more enthusiastic. Everyone is looking forward to the prize money of the first prize.

Chen Tianliao quickly announced: "The first prize, a prize of 300,000 yuan, a horse neighing car worth 200,000 yuan, a 150-square-meter house worth 500,000 yuan in Haikang Garden, Nantou District, and a parking space worth 10,000 yuan." At the same time, enjoy 1% patent dividends!"

Before he finished the announcement, the employees at the scene burst into thunderous applause. Not to mention private enterprises, who can hear similar things about state-owned enterprises and foreign enterprises in these years? 100,000 yuan is a great reward, and here is a heavy reward of one million yuan! There are also three one-time awards! Moreover, this reward has an invisible benefit; at this time, in order to promote the development of the real estate industry, the Pengcheng government stipulates that anyone who buys a real estate project prescribed by the government can move the household registration of his spouse and immediate family members to Pengcheng. Haikang Garden is one of them. In other words, the winners of the three first prizes have already received the treatment of moving into Pengcheng with the whole family's household registration, and have taken root in Pengcheng!

The three first-prize researchers went to the podium, and all of them had smiles on their faces. When Chen Tianliao said that they would be rewarded for the success of their research, they didn't expect it to be so much, thinking that adding two or three months' salary would be the top, but they didn't expect it to be this result. Chen Tianliao distributed prizes to them one by one. When the three strings of bright room keys and house ownership deeds were finally handed over to the three people, the atmosphere of the audience reached its climax. Almost all of them were applauding mercilessly, and many were shouting hoarsely. These intellectuals, who are usually more reserved, are now particularly excited.

No way, before that, most of the state's propaganda for the image of intellectuals was ascetic. After the reform and opening up, the wage distribution also tends to be the group of people who can directly bring benefits, rather than the group of intellectuals who do not achieve results so quickly, so that the phenomenon of "brain-body upside down" has emerged, that is, in the same working hours, the remuneration of mental workers is not as high as that of manual laborers, and there is even a phenomenon that "those who engage in atomic bombs are not as good as those who sell tea and eggs." These researchers are admirable for being able to endure such injustice and continue their scientific research careers, but this does not mean that they do not like money. And this time, Chen Tianliao directly shot a monetary reward far beyond their imagination limit, which naturally greatly stimulated them.

After the three first prize winners stepped down, Chen Tianliao made a summary. He said: "Thank you for your hard work to make this award possible. Of course, for the first award, there are many practices that go beyond the norm, and they will be more standardized in the future. For example, you should wait until your results are profitable and then reward them according to the benefits, and for example, the rewards of administrative staff should be separated from those of your core researchers. However, this is the first time, we don't have to go the ordinary way, we reward everyone first, and improve everyone's morale. ”

Everyone laughed and applauded.

Chen Tianliao continued: "For the next award, let's standardize it a little more. This time, I am making it clear to you that I need your dedication. In the same way, I know that you also need my dedication!"

The crowd burst out laughing.

Chen Tianliao said: "So you have dedicated to me, I will definitely give you a reward worthy of your dedication." I know that for a long time, you intellectuals have been underpaid. Although you are the backbone of society and the hope of China's take-off, your income and remuneration are not matched by your dedication. Now let me tell you that starting with my business, intellectuals are no longer synonymous with poverty. You deserve a lot of money, and you deserve to drive a car and live in a bungalow!

"Of course, I don't want people to be blinded by money. Let's not forget what the most important mission of intellectuals is. Yes, the most important mission of intellectuals is to create, to create the latest scientific research results, and to create all kinds of social wealth. Your existence is only worth it if this most fundamental mission is fulfilled. And I will cash this value into material things to repay you!"

Chen Tianliao's wonderful speech ended in the applause of the employees. Not only will the employees be excited about this for a long time, but even Chen Tianliao can't calm down for a long time. He suddenly remembered that in his previous life, there was a series of short documentaries called "Love in the Republic". This short film was produced by the Central Television Station around 1988 in the previous life, recording the touching deeds of the older generation of scientists represented by Qian Xuesen who dedicated everything to serve the motherland. Although he was still young at the time and basically didn't remember the content, he always remembered the emotion when he watched it, and he remembered the theme song deeply in his soul and became his favorite song. His heavy award this time not only comes from the concept of attaching importance to scientific researchers in later generations, but also carries the complex of respect for scientific researchers that he had when he was young in his previous life.

"If I have the ability, I will not only reward my own employees, but also let those researchers who work for the country no longer be poor!" Chen Tianliao thought. Somehow, in his heart, the melody of "Life and Death, I Love You" that has influenced him to this day sounded:

"In love, in love,

Pain, happiness, I call to you;

In songs, in dreams,

Life and death depend on me, I am bitterly in love with you.

Even though it is a miserable storm,

I won't leave you either.

When the world smiles at you,

I'm in your tears.
