The monkeys returned, and one after another, Ardis, Kate, and the heads of the districts also returned, and two days before Christmas, everyone gathered for a year-end meeting.

Arms companies are different from other enterprises, the expansion of the market is relatively more difficult, with the current Middle East, Africa, this region, plus a considerable share of South America, to be honest, whether it is Xiao Yang or Oman, are already quite satisfied, so although there is such a thing as expanding the market at the year-end meeting, but everyone does not pay too much attention to it, the market is not said to be able to expand, the new market, need the right opportunity and opportunity, furthermore, in the current global situation, the key market is in the Middle East, Europe, North America are exported, East Asia has domestic and Southern Peninsula, Southeast Asia is temporarily unable to intervene, how much is left in the global market?

Therefore, the focus of the year-end meeting is still on the stability of the existing market and the most important thing: this year's income and dividends.

People in the mercenary circle basically have a problem, that is, they spend money lavishly, get drunk and dream every day, and enjoy how they come, this kind of consumption attitude mainly comes from their profession: no one knows whether they will live in this world tomorrow.

In this way, it is not strange that there is a mentality of drinking and getting drunk today, of course, there will also be people like Xiao Yang who have a strong sense of distress, or people who have families, but this part is still in the minority.

A few of the blood wolves, Xiao Yang was influenced by Uncle Long and what happened when he was young, and once regarded money as very important, and the money of Xuanyuan Zhan's brothers belonged to him, which allowed them to have enough principal when they entered this industry in a big way.

But Oman and their black mamba are different, except for a few people in Oman, including Kate, others are spending money like water, these years of getting married, or the change of the environment has converged, but in general, they spend a lot of money a year, so that the company's annual dividends have become the thing they look forward to the most.

In fact, according to the company's profits, in fact, a year's dividends are enough for them to live for most of their lives, but Xiao Yang and Aman are aware of their lavish habits, and they deliberately control it, and use the money to invest in some projects of the mining company, which can be regarded as solving the capital needs of the mining company and increasing the pension insurance for everyone.

This year is different from previous years, several large projects on the mining company's side have been finalized, and the demand for funds is not so great, the company at the end of the year, there is still a lot of money left in the account, earlier, Xiao Yang and Aman considered being generous this year, and giving more dividends to everyone.

After all, they have used their own capital over the years, and they also need dividends to meet their daily expenses.

The annual year-end meeting, or any meeting, except for special or important affairs, Xiao Yang will lead, the rest is for Aman to come, after telling some of the things he wants to say, he closed his mouth, and the matter of dividends was naturally handed over to Oman.

"Alright, now it's time for your biggest concerns......" After making sure everything else was said and done, Aman tapped on the table to remind the group.

Unlike other meetings, the atmosphere of the year-end meeting is always more relaxed, and when everyone heard his words, some people immediately started to cry out about the last time, how much money I have borrowed from whom I have borrowed this year, and so on.

For their commotion, Xiao Yang and Aman don't mind, today, on a special day, it's better for everyone to be casual.

After a while, Aman knocked on the table again, waiting for everyone to be quiet, and then continued: "This year, the company's financial situation is better than ever, so this year's dividends are also more, 250 million US dollars, and later the finance will be credited to your account according to everyone's share, if there is a change in the account, hurry up to the financial side to ......."

"Wow......" exclaimed in the conference room.

In the past few years, there have been dividends every year, but they don't add up to this number, and this year there are so many one-time dividends? It was a surprise.

For a while, everyone began to think about whether they could buy the car they liked, or the luxury house they fancied could be bought, and so on......

Of course, Xiao Yang and Aman won't take care of these things, suppressing everyone's dividends is already the extreme, no matter how much interference, it can only destroy the relationship between each other, after all, no one wants to be tied hand and foot, and even the freedom to spend their own money is gone?

Knowing that everyone would not have much to listen to when they got this good news, Aman did not say more, and simply said a few words, and ended another year's year-end meeting.

The holiday has officially begun, and those who should go back to their hometown can go back, and those who want to travel can also go, but Xiao Yang and Oman are not relaxed for the time being, because there is also the annual meeting of the mining company.

Different from the arms company, the mining company has many industries, copper mines, iron mines, gem mines, plus oil, dozens of subsidiaries, a year-end summary, things are indispensable, not to mention anything else, so many companies plan for the coming year, it is not a simple matter, but fortunately, as shareholders, they only have to participate in the last day of the shareholders' meeting.

But despite this, a full day of meetings will be enough to choke.

After the two had finished their meeting, all the men who had returned from all over the country had left to find their own merriments, except for those whose families were in Kutos, and by this time Christmas was only one day away.

"The second phase of the refinery is about to be completed, do you need to contact Huaguo?" Back at his company, he was about to enter the office when Aman suddenly asked.

Although the first phase of the refinery project also has a domestic share, it is very few, basically to meet the needs of European and American countries, and the launch of the second phase of the project is mainly domestic demand, and the important object is CNOOC, which is also what Xiao Yang once talked about in Jiangnan Province.

"There is no need to contact them, when I returned to China in September, I met someone from CNOOC, and I mentioned this matter at that time, and when the second phase of the project began to be put into production, they would fulfill the agreement, and there would be no surprises...... Now that China is increasing its oil reserves, it will not reduce its import share for a long time, but will continue to increase, so we don't have to worry about sales......"

Oman is not familiar with some of China's policies, the second phase of the project invested more than one billion US dollars, if the production capacity can not be released after it is put into operation, it is equivalent to a big loss, so I want Xiao Yang to confirm it, and I am relieved to hear him say so.

"That's no problem, by the way, there are a lot of people for Christmas, are you ready?"

There are indeed a lot of people, not to mention the company, Feng Guofeng's family, Deng Gang from the consulate, and then Tang Jian, Tan Jun and others, I am afraid that there will be dozens of people together, and if there is not enough preparation, it will be embarrassing at that time.

"It's no problem with the venue or anything, just prepare some food and drink, but it's all set, and it will be delivered before tomorrow night, and you can help early when the ......time comes."
