Qin Ran saw that the dishes had been served, and as the host, it was time to toast next.

"Okay."

As a leader who has participated in countless banquets, Huang Weiguo has already prepared, so he buried himself in eating just now to fill his stomach first.

Why do leaders always like to sigh: It is the best enjoyment to be able to drink a bowl of white porridge and eat a plate of dried radish every day. Because of frequent socializing, the body alcohol test, burying the head in the bitter liver, stomach life-threatening service.

Zhou Zhidong, as the host, hurriedly picked up a few bites of food as soon as he sat down, and he couldn't be idle for a moment tonight. Seeing that Qin Ran invited Mayor Huang to stand up with a wine glass, he hurriedly returned to the stage and asked the sound engineer to stop the background music.

As soon as the music stopped, everyone who was eating well knew that the second half of the show was going to begin.

"Let's welcome Mayor Huang Weiguo and Mr. Qin, the representative of the investor, to the stage to toast everyone!"

Zhou Zhidong is familiar with the process of the party, and his original Wanjian company will hold an annual meeting every year, but the scale of the previous times is definitely not as good as tonight.

Qin Ran leaned over and made a gesture of please, letting Huang Weiguo come to the stage first, and then he followed behind.

"Please stand up, grab your glasses, and get ready!"

Zhou Zhidong saw that Huang Weiguo and Qin Ran had come to the middle of the stage, and both of them were holding wine glasses in their hands, so he beckoned the audience to stand up. Huang Weiguo has been in the top position for a long time, and he has a noble spirit that is not angry and arrogant. Although it seems to be smiling peacefully, people still feel oppressed. Looking at Qin Ran again, wearing black-framed eyes, he always had a kind smile on his face, but he had a calm demeanor that let the wind and rain hit me, and he stood with Huang Weiguo without losing half a point in momentum.

Approaching the microphone on the grounding bracket in front of him, Qin Ran motioned for the mayor to speak first.

"I wish you all a prosperous body and a strong career in the new year."

The 1998 lunar calendar is the Year of the Tiger, so Huang Weiguo's greetings use idioms related to the tiger.

"I wish you all the best luck in the future!"

Qin Ran didn't want to steal the limelight from the mayor, so he was very down-to-earth and said the wishes in everyone's hearts.

"Cheers!"

"Cheers!"

The audience was full of voices, staggered cups, and lively.

Returning to their seats, the two of them certainly did not sit idle. Because according to the usual practice, Qin Ran also had to accompany the mayor to toast in the VIP area.

There are strict rules at the banquet, and only after the leaders and elders come to toast can others play freely, and then the most important part is to return to the leaders and elders.

Of course, Zhou Zhidong accompanied him all the way, after all, the guests present were the most familiar to him, so he invited Secretary General Shangluo, and the four of them took a turn in the VIP seat together.

Qin Ran doesn't like to drink alcohol, so his wine is mixed with boiling water, and there is only a little bit of wine. What about the mayor, in the same way, when it comes to a certain position, physical health is the most important, otherwise how can you continue to move forward, the same is boiled water with wine. Many officials often end up in the body when they pursue their careers and sprint.

Of course, no one present dared to say that the mayor was not kind, because he was the biggest at the scene, and no one would dare to check the authenticity of his wine. The reality is that many times it is unequal, and if you want to be equal, it is very simple to wait until you have this qualification.

As soon as Qin Ran and the mayor sat down, the top leaders in the city automatically began to report to the mayor in turn according to the order of power. Qin Ran took the opportunity to slip away, so as not to harm the pond fish, drinking too much boiled water is also a great test of kidney and bladder function. Besides, the main character is the mayor, so it's also a good thing for him and his subordinates to connect and bond in an informal setting.

The waiter began to collect the small cards that were given to each person when they came, with everyone's name and number written on them, left a sub-page, and then put the cards into the large lottery box on the stage.

At this time, the communication between the VIP seats and the mayor also came to an end, and everyone consciously waited for the climax of the annual meeting lottery.

"We absolutely treat everyone equally in this lottery, and all the guests' cards are in it, and we will definitely not engage in black-box operations. Besides, we don't dare to make small moves in front of so many leaders' fiery eyes, and if I'm not careful, I may be invited to tea by 110 immediately. ”

"Haha-"

Zhou Zhidong laughed at himself, which made everyone in the audience laugh.

"If it weren't for the sake of proving our innocence, let's ask Mayor Huang Weiguo to draw the first prize for us, the winners of 15 29-inch large color TVs."

Huang Weiguo was invited to the stage again amid applause.

"Since everyone is treated equally, then theoretically it is possible to draw yourself, and then everyone is not allowed to say that I am using my power for personal gain!"

The mayor's humor once again made the audience laugh.

"Well, let's get a guest from our government agency later. We all donate the prizes to the Hope Project to support out-of-school children. Everyone has no opinion on my construction, raise your hand if you have no opinion! ”

Huang Weiguo's voice changed and looked at the VIP seat in front of him.

"Boom-"

Whoever dared not raise their hands at this time, the officials in the VIP seating area immediately all raised their hands in agreement. No matter how painful it is in my heart, I will not dare to show it.

"It seems that there are no opinions, so it's decided!"

The domineering leak detection, Huang Weiguo's mayoral majesty was revealed in an instant.

"Well, I am really grateful to Mayor Huang and the leaders of various government agencies for their kindness. Oh-"

Zhou Zhidong had just said a few words, and suddenly saw Qin Ran waving his hand to let him come over. So he moved to the side of the stage, and then Qin Ran whispered a few words in his ear, and Zhou Zhidong kept nodding to show that he understood.

"Driven by the leaders to lead by example, our company decided to donate 10,000 yuan in grants according to the amount of 10,000 yuan won by the leaders, and make a modest contribution to the out-of-school children together."

"Wow! It's too generous! ”

"The company is really rich!"

"It would be nice if I had given me that 10,000 yuan."

The employees below have exchanged heads and discussions.

"Tsk-"

"Go up!"

"Look, this sycophant is so slippery!"

These were private conversations between the officials in the VIP seats.

"We need such a socially responsible enterprise in Jiangzhou, and knowing how to give back to the society is the way to build an everlasting business."

Huang Weiguo stood up and praised him at the right time, Qin Ran's actions just now made him feel very comfortable.

"Now I'll start the lottery, so that everyone can't wait."

The mayor put his hand in the lottery box as he spoke, and quickly pulled out a small card.

"No. 057, Zheng Yanyan!"

Huang Weiguo read out the name of the winner written on it.

"Wow, it's me, it's me! I'm in, I'm in! ”

A financial girl from Jiangnan Real Estate Company stood up dancing below and was soon invited to the stage.

"No. 016, Bloomberg!"

Another lucky winner is born.

"Haha, I know that burning incense every day always brings good luck!"

In the envious eyes of the surrounding crowd, a male construction worker from Jiangnan Real Estate trotted onto the stage.

……

"No. 039, Fang Jun!"

Fang Jungang knew the name of the girl next to him - Xiao Yun. It sounds like a beautiful name, at least that's what our classmate Fang Jun thinks.

He was chatting happily with Xiao Yun now, making Xiao Yun cover her mouth and laugh from time to time. Fang Jun brought out his sense of humor that he had accumulated for twenty-two years to the fullest tonight, and he had never felt that he was so eloquent.

"No. 039, Fang Jun!"

Zhou Zhidong saw that the audience did not respond, so he shouted again.

"Hey, your name is called!"

Fang Jun kept staring at Xiao Yun and smirked, but the girl reminded him that he had won the lottery.

"Ah...... Here, I'm here! ”

Fang Jun hurriedly raised his hand and walked onto the stage.

"Let's thank Mayor Huang with warm applause for drawing the first batch of lucky winners for us!"

After Zhou Zhidong finished speaking, he invited Huang Weiguo off the stage, after all, you can't let the mayor hang on the stage. This time, fortunately, no government officials were selected.

"Let's interview, what do the lucky ones have to say?"

Zhou Zhidong handed the microphone to the first employee to come to the stage - Zheng Yanyan.

"I'm very proud, I think our company is the best in Jiangzhou!"

"Bang Bang-"

Seeing the voices of the employees present, everyone applauded in agreement.

"I feel very lucky, I just want to buy a color TV at home, and I didn't expect to have it right away. Thank you very much for the generosity of the company, although I still can't believe it's true. ”

That's the rhetoric of second-place Bloomberg.

……

It was finally the turn of the last Fang Jun.

"Fang Jun, what do you want to say most at this moment?"

When Zhou Zhidong reviewed the drawings with Bain International last time, he remembered this shy boy.

"Uh--is that what I want to say most now, after getting this big color TV?" Fang Jun asked Zhou Zhidong a little uncertainly.

"Yes."

"The beauty of the property management company - Xiao Yun, are you willing to watch TV at home with me in the future?"

Fang Jun shouted in the direction of his desk.

"Oh-"

"Wow-"

Colleagues who knew Xiao Yun's name opened their mouths to coax.

The sudden confession made Xiao Yun's girl's face flushed, and she wanted to hide under the table for refuge, but there was a sweet feeling in her heart. To be honest, she and this big boy have a good conversation, and she has some good feelings, but it's too fast at the moment! There is a feeling that I have sold myself in a daze.

"Promise him!"

"Promise him!"

The audience resounded with neat and enthusiastic shouts.

Many girls are emotional creatures, and it's easy to get excited to agree to a boy's request, no matter how outrageous it may seem.

"I'll have to go home and ask my mom for her opinion first."

Xiao Yun stood up weakly and replied.

"Haha-"

It's not that enemies don't get together, everyone is made to laugh by their two "living treasures".

"It's a good show."

Qin Ran secretly said in his heart, because Fang Jun often can't leave "my mother" in his mouth, and now he is looking for a girl who can't do without his mother, and in the future, it is estimated that his mother will secretly stage a dragon and tiger fight.

"Next, let's ask Secretary General Luo of Jiangzhou Municipal Government to draw the second prize for us, and the prize is 20 double-door refrigerators!"

Those who didn't win the lottery just now picked up their cards and confirmed the numbers on them again, ensuring that they could respond as soon as they read their names.

This time, there were two guests from the government unit. According to the promise, Zhou Zhidong donated 20,000 yuan on behalf of the company.

The subsequent 20 washing machines are still the second prize, and Zhou Zhidong invited the company's God of Wealth, Mr. Dai of ICBC and Mr. Zhu of CCB, to draw together. President Dai was unfortunately caught by Huang Weiguo's words, and he drew his own card, which caused an uproar below.

"President Dai, I must follow the will of the people and ask how you are feeling now?" Zhou Zhidong handed the microphone to him.

"Who knows where the nearest lottery shop is? I'm going to have to get one while I'm in luck. ”

President Dai doesn't have much hair on the top, but his skills are still there. His words made everyone burst into laughter, and even Huang Weiguo couldn't help but be amused by him.

After that, Party B's representatives Yang of China Construction Ninth Bureau, Mr. Tao of Zheguang Construction, and Party A's representative Zhou Zhidong and Song Pengcheng, the boss of the property management company, drew the third prize together, a total of 70 VCD players.

The people who got the prizes were beaming, and those who didn't get the prizes still had the last glimmer of hope, and the tied first prize would be drawn by Qin Ran in the end.

"The following is the last exciting opportunity, tied for the first prize 15 1.5P household air conditioners, which will be personally announced by Mr. Qin. However, I would like to say that colleagues who did not win the lottery should not be disappointed. Because the sun shines on the award is waiting for you, one rice cooker per person. Our slogan is that everyone has a part and never fails. ”

In the applause, Qin Ran walked on stage and decided the fate of 15 air conditioners.

After turning the lottery box around, Qin Ran put his hand in and grabbed a small card and came out.

"No. 219, Yan Shifeng!"

“Yeah!”

The employee who shouted his name waved his fist excitedly and ran onto the stage, he was a new employee of the property management company.

"No. 007, Guan Xin!"

Without any superfluous expressions, there was no joy or anger, Guan Xin stood quietly aside after walking on the stage with a straight face. Qin Ran was also used to his playing card face.

……

Soon, there will be one last spot, who will be the lucky one in the end?

Qin Ran smiled and put his hand into the box and took out the last card.

"No. 127, Xiao Yun!"

"Oh—"

There was an exclamation below, the name Xiao Yun had already caused a sensation just now.

I saw Xiao Yun slowly move onto the stage with some embarrassment, standing in the most inconspicuous position next to her.

"Come, Xiao Yun, come over and let everyone see if they are worthy of our classmate Fang Jun just now?"

On a whim, Qin Ran decided to help another group of honest big boys. The boss called, and Xiao Yun had no choice but to walk to Qin Ran's side even if she was reluctant.

"Do you deserve it?"

"Yes!"

The crowd was in high spirits, and they replied loudly and neatly.

This kind of action made Xiao Yun's face blush like a big lantern, shining.

Fang Jun is very happy at the bottom, tonight can be described as a bumper harvest after the New Year, not only won the first prize, but also kidnapped a girlfriend away.

"Someone invited you to watch TV, would you invite him to blow the air conditioner now?"

Qin Ran was really "cheap", and asked the questions that the audience liked to see.

"I can't blow the air conditioner in winter, it's too cold!"

"Haha-"

Tonight's pair of "living treasures" really brought too much joy to everyone.

In the lottery session, the guests of the government units won a total of 17 items, and Qin Ran of course kept his promise to donate 170,000 yuan of love fund to the Hope Project.

"The annual meeting was very successful, very lively and exciting."

This is what Huang Weiguo said to Qin Ran privately before getting into the car when he said goodbye.

"Next year, the Xiziwan project will be successful, and I will come to your company's annual meeting at the end of the year if I have time."

It seems that the mayor is really concerned about the West Bay project.

"Thank you for your concern, I promise not to let you down."

Qin Ran leaned slightly, closed the door of the back seat of the Hongqi car, and watched Jiang A00002 leave.

The excitement dissipated, the prosperity subsided, and Qin Ran was about to usher in the 1998 Lunar New Year alone.
