Chapter 484 - About New Year's Money
"Happy New Year!"
"Happy New Year!"
"Happy New Year, boss!"
"Happy New Year, Chairman!"
The next few waves of people got together, namely Hu Wenbing and his wife Zhan Tianqi, Tian Jun and his wife and children, Fang Biao and his wife, Xu Ruichen and his children, Pei Xiaoshuai, Tang Zheng, Xia Ketian, Bao Xiaohua, Miao Xiaocrook and other bachelors, and finally Miao Huazheng and his girlfriend Wang Yan.
In addition, the female guests are a group of core or close to the core of a group of high-IQ workplace goddesses such as Rava , Zhang Dongyue , Xiaoxue and so on.
Today, there are more than 30 people who came to Li Mai's house to pay New Year's greetings.
If it weren't for Zhang Dongyue's notice, the group executives were not allowed to come to pay New Year's greetings, and I am afraid there would have been hundreds of people. You must know that there are hundreds of people at the top and bottom of the Gun Regiment Construction Group Headquarters and the executives of the companies below the decision-making level. There are so many companies, it's no joke.
But his subordinates can't help but meet, those executives are the essence of the company, and they are the most critical part of the whole machine, so Li Mai arranged a group worship at the Yuanfan Hotel, which was on the third day of the Lunar New Year. On the second day of the Lunar New Year, it was also a group worship, and the scale was larger, because all the middle-level management and family members of the group company participated. If executives are the essence, then the majority of middle management is the most solid cornerstone of the enterprise. This layer is stable, and for enterprises, it can be attacked and retreated.
Li Mai knows very well how to bring people's hearts together. He carefully reviewed the process of the two group worship activities and confirmed that he did his best.
Those who came to pay New Year's greetings today are all core members of Li Mai's side, needless to say, the relationship. Moreover, the fact that they had the opportunity to meet Li Lu actually explained their status by Li Mai's side.
Even though the living room on the second floor was large enough, Li Mai still arranged the place in the back garden. The scenery is better, the atmosphere is better, and the children can freely spread the wild on the grass without worrying about falling and hurting.
Li Mai beckoned everyone to sit in the back garden, and everyone started to talk, laughing and laughing one after another.
Naturally, everyone was dominated by Li Mai, vaguely in a semicircle, talking. Pei Xiaoshuai took the initiative to take on the job of pouring tea and adding water to the bigwigs, and the young man saw it at his fingertips and did things neatly.
Over there, it is the place of ladies, of course, Zhang Xiaoyu is the mainstay, talking between women. Zhang Dongyue and Xiaoxue personally served the ladies, and they didn't talk often, but they were happy.
The men's side are chatting about related topics such as New Year's red envelopes and New Year's money. In recent years, the topic of New Year's money has been brought out for discussion across the country every Spring Festival.
The positive view is that the New Year's big head, giving a red envelope to ask for a good intention, is both a tradition and a meaning, and the child is also happy.
The opposing view is that that it will promote the child's money-only thinking and is not good for the child's growth. If you want to be kind, you can completely replace it with something else, not necessarily money.
"It has been this practice for thousands of years and thousands of years, and it has been followed for so long that it has only been taken out to discuss whether the saving of New Year's money is good or bad, I think it is very unnecessary. Li Xian expressed his opinion, "The ancestors have spent so long verifying, why should we later generations repeat it again? â
Qian Mangui lifted his glasses and said, "The growth of children is affected by many aspects, and it is not that giving a few red envelopes during the Spring Festival will promote the concept that children value money, which is not tenable." For example, who of us in this room didn't grow up in almost the same atmosphere? During the Chinese New Year, the elders gave some New Year's money, relatives and friends gave some red envelopes, and the money was more and less, all of which were for a purpose. But there is no need to rise to the level of affecting the child's growth. â
Obviously, as the most experienced, his views in this regard are worth paying attention to. So, many people agree with the nod.
Wei Zhenhua flicked the cigarette ash and said, "In my opinion, the New Year's money has now become a tool for comparison. This question exists objectively. Children have more New Year's money than whom, and adults have more New Year's money than whoever sends out. I've been following two of the more extreme stories. One is a child who jumped from the building because he felt that no one loved him because he had less money than his classmates. The other is that after working hard outside for a year, he saved 10,000 yuan and went home for the New Year, giving red envelopes all in order to save face, and went back to work in order to make up for the travel expenses, and turned around to grab the students' New Year's money, and was sentenced. There is something hateful about the so-called wretched. But we have to see that the root cause of these extreme phenomena is not the New Year's money itself, but I don't know when, everyone began to give other meanings to the New Year's money, so that it has become the heaviest stone in the hearts of children and adults from good intentions. I feel that, fundamentally, it's a problem with education, and there's a problem with the whole country. â
Everyone looked at Wei Zhenhua with admiration, and his words hit the nail on the head, pointing out the problems that are common in real life but few people really think about them.
Nodding slowly, Hu Wenbing took over and said, "I have noticed that those who oppose New Year's money are generally shy people. All of you here will definitely not worry about the New Year's money. Li Xian brought a box of cash over today to distribute the New Year's money. â
"Hahaha!"
Everyone laughed, one laugh was for Hu Wenbing's more point-to-point, and the second laugh was for Li Xian's approach. Just now, everyone has laughed at Li Xian once, and now that they mention it, they still think it's funny.
Not to mention Li Mai, all of the people who can come here today to pay New Year's greetings are billionaires, who has more money than others and who has less money than whom?
However, some people think about it deeply, but they feel that Li Xian has done something they can't even think of doing - straightforward. Referring to Li Mai's character, it is obvious that Li Xian's straightforward temperament has an appetite for him.
Speaking of which, among the several bigwigs, the weakest asset should be Li Xian. Among the bigwigs in the group headquarters, several others have higher incomes than Li Xian, and Qian Mangui is in charge of a large company alone. Li Xian's income is higher than that of Xu Ruichen and Tang Zheng, who are close to the core.
The problem is that Li Xian expressed his attitude in a very direct way with a box of cash almost without any consideration. What's more, he didn't think about winning anyone's favor in this way. That's what makes it so valuable.
Li Mai smiled, picked up the teacup and drank some tea. No matter how much everyone talked and laughed, their attention never left him, and when they saw such a scene, they knew that Li Mai was going to speak, so they all stopped.
"I think the topic of New Year's money, I think there has been a debate since the day it appeared. To borrow a phrase from Hegel, to be a zĂ i is reasonable. It doesn't make sense for us to discuss whether it should be carried forward or boycotted. What we have to think about is how best to use it now that it already exists. â
Everyone nodded thoughtfully, some people directly lowered their heads and pondered, and Li Mai always suddenly pointed out some thought-provoking words.
After a pause, Li Mai said, "I'll give you an example-gun." From the day the gun appeared to the present, countless people have died at its hands, and the scale of the guns used in the two world wars was several times larger than the scale of the previous and subsequent wars combined. But can we blame guns for this? Since the period of hot weapons, all wars have been inseparable from guns, but can we say that guns provoked wars, and the main culprit is guns?"
It's a very simple truth, with the IQ of everyone here, you can easily figure out this truth, Li Mai didn't talk nonsense, smiled slightly, and said, "Whether it's New Year's money or red envelopes, it's actually the same." The sin is not in itself, but in those who use it. â
"War has nothing to do with guns, red envelopes, and it has nothing to do with children's growth. â
