Chapter 1078 Big Gift Package
Music slowly rang on the stage, and at the same time, the company's promotional video began to be played on the big screen. The first one appeared on the screen was a photo when the Century Peak was just established. Apart from the Century Peak sign hanging at the door, the company was empty and had no table...
Amid the melodious music, Zhang Ran slowly rose from the center of the stage, holding the microphone and singing slowly: "I once had a dream in my heart. I want to use the singing to make you forget all the pain; who is the real hero in the brilliant starry sky? Ordinary people are the most touched by me; there is no hatred or pain, I hope there is a trace of love everywhere in the world..."
Zhang Ran sang halfway, looked at the audience below and smiled, "Many singers like to shout at the audience when they forget lyrics, "Everyone comes together!" As he said that, he pointed the microphone at the audience below and shouted: "Come on, come together!"
The audience laughed at first, then stood up, holding hands and singing with Zhang Ran: "Grasp every minute of life and give our all the dreams in our hearts; how can we see the rainbow without experiencing the wind and rain? No one can succeed at will..."
"True Hero" is an inspirational song that is specially sang. After one song, everyone was extremely excited at the scene. I felt a fire burning in my heart, and some of the girls were even more excited and burst into tears.
After the audience sat down, Zhang Ran curled his smile and said slowly: "I've finished singing. Now I want to tell you something. Century Peak has been established for ten years. The biggest change in these ten years is that we have gone from a small company with more than 100 people to a large company with 197,869 employees, and has its own branches and offices in 65 countries and regions around the world. Its annual revenue exceeds US$100 billion and profit of US$9.13 billion.
However, I think the greatest achievement of Century Peak is not money, not the size of the company, but the possession of you. You are the greatest pride of Century Peak. The company's greatest wealth is that it has more than 190,000 employees and all the people who have contributed to Century Peak. This is not a lie, because I always firmly believe that creativity is cheap and execution is the key.
Building a company is like making a movie. It is not like having a good story or having a good idea to make good works. Many classic works are very bad, and that’s the reason. If you want to make first-class movies, photography, lighting, art, etc., every link must be first-class, and the same is true for the company. Without your efforts and execution, our various ideas can only be concepts. So, thank you very much for your unremitting efforts over the past ten years! Without you, there would be no success at the peak of the century!"
The staff at the scene, as well as in front of the computer and TV were moved by Zhang Ran's words, applauded desperately, and even shouted: "I am proud of the peak of the century!"
Zhang Ran took a light breath and continued: "Today is the tenth anniversary of the Century's peak. I saw many media say that this is the richest annual meeting in history." The audience is laughing now. Zhang Ran did not laugh and said seriously: "Actually, we are holding this annual meeting not to show our achievements, nor to demonstrate our strength, nor to show off how rich we are. Instead, we hope that everyone will gather together to reflect on the past ten years and think about the future!
Ten years ago, Lao Wu and I set a goal for the company, and we will divide the world with BTA in the future. All of us have worked hard for this goal for ten years and finally got to where we are today. Everything we have now is forged by thinking ten years ago; and the development in the next ten years also depends on our thinking today. In addition to celebrating the tenth anniversary of today's annual meeting, the most important thing is that we need to rethink: what we are for, what we have, what we need to do, what we need to stick to, where is the road ahead, and which direction should we go?
Century Peak is an idealistic company. It is entirely up to the persistence of ideals. What I worry most now is that after seeing the achievements in front of us, we will become arrogant, arrogant, self-righteous, and forget our ideals. If a person has no ideals, he will live a very boring life; if a company loses his ideals and thinks about making money every day, it is just a money-making machine. For Century Peak, we can lose everything, but we must never lose our ideals.
Now many people think that Century Peak will be awesome. Many of our company also think that the company is very awesome, and its tail is so tilted to the sky. But when we calm down, we ask ourselves, is Century Peak a great company? No! We are not. A truly great company is a company that has influenced and changed the world, just like Motorola and ibm. We are big companies, but we are not a great company, and we are still far from it.
Ten years ago, our ideal was to divide the world with BTA and be an influential company in the world. After ten years of hard work, the ideal became a reality and we have become a world-class large company; but we cannot stop moving forward, we must have greater goals and ideals. In the next ten years, I hope we can become a great company and a company that can influence and change the world.
There is a saying in "Spider-Man" that is very good. The greater the ability, the greater the responsibility. This is true for both individuals and enterprises. The peak of the century has grown to this level today. We must consider the times, countries, society and the world, and we must have a sense of family and country and world responsibility in the future. Only in this way can the peak of the century win respect!
In the future, Century Peak must be a technology company and an innovative company. We must become the engine of innovation in the country, society, and even the world. Century Peak must have this ideal and must shoulder this responsibility. Only with such beliefs and such ideals can we not stay today and continue to move forward. We must believe that in the future, we can surpass Intel, Microsoft, and ibm. Nokia can defeat Motorola, Apple and Android can destroy Nokia, and of course we can do it too. Because we were born in the 21st century, we have the advantage of latecomer!"
Perhaps in the eyes of others, Zhang Ran's words are a bit arrogant, but the employees of Century Peak are convinced. Everyone believes that in the next ten years, Century Peak has the ability to surpass the past giants, at least in the VR field, it is entirely possible.
Zhang Ran continued: "No company can last forever, and any company may die in the future. If the Peak of Century dies in the future, I hope there are two things that can be passed on. First, there are a group of movies that can be passed on for a long time; second, there are a group of technologies that influence and change the world. If the Peak of Century is gone one day, as long as these two things exist, then our struggle is meaningful!
In the next ten years, we will increase our investment in technology and technological innovation. We will establish the Academy of Sciences and invest more than 500 billion yuan in funds to carry out new technology research and development. We believe that the development of science and technology is not just about not doing evil, but about contributing to society and the world. This is the mission of science and technology! The peak of the future century will rely on technology to make profits, not on market size; the peak of the future century will rely on innovation to win the market, not on cost! We hope to be respected in the future not because of our world rankings, not because of our great income and profits, but because we have created value for China, the world, and for all the people we care about and love, and solved the problem!
The door to the future has been opened, and the road is right under our feet. I hope that in the days ahead, we can unite and move forward bravely like the past ten years, so that the peak of the century will grow into a great company! I am finished saying this! Thank you for listening!"
Speaking of this, Zhang Ran bowed to everyone and ended his speech.
The passion of the 40,000 people at the scene was ignited by Zhang Ran, and they stood up, shouted loudly, applauding hard at Zhang Ran; the employees in front of the computer and the TV also applauded hard at Zhang Ran on the screen with passion.
After the applause, Zhang Ran looked at the employees below and smiled and said, "Now there is only one last part of the party left, which is to commend outstanding employees and teams who have made significant contributions to the peak growth of the century in the past ten years. Of course, there is also a 10th anniversary gift package prepared for each employee. Next, we will first award the Excellent Employee Award."
Zhang Ran paused and said, "First, Tiangong Chongcai, Sun Kewang! When filming "Tangshan Earthquake" in 2006, Sun Kewang led Tiangong Chongcai's R&D team to develop plug-ins that can realistically reproduce the collapse of the house. The successful development of this software gave us the world-leading thing for the first time in special effects, and strengthened our determination to deeply cultivate graphic images. After that, Sun Kewang was transferred to the software development department and developed a number of software with great influence, making a significant contribution to the company's development. With the approval of the company's board of directors, the Best Employee Award for Ten Years! The prize is a Lamborghini Hrekan sedan! Please come to the stage to receive the award!"
When the audience heard that Lamborghini was the prize, they all exclaimed "wow"; they were all very envious; but not many people felt jealous, and Sun Kewang's achievements made people convinced and could not find any fault.
Of course, not only R&D personnel like Sun Kewang have won the Best Employee Award in Ten Years, but also directors like Ning Hao, fashion designers, film marketers, and ordinary clerks. Century Peak has been able to reach today because of the efforts of employees represented by them.
The prizes for the Best Team Awards awarded next were even more amazing. Shares were distributed directly. Each team distributed 1 million shares of the peak of the century. This was a reward worth tens of millions of dollars, which caused countless people to exclaim and envy.
After the award ceremony, the most exciting moment came. Zhang Ran stood in the middle of the stage, looked at the crowded crowds below the stage, and announced with a smile: "It's time to distribute the 10th anniversary gift package, and I know many people are looking forward to it."
The party lasted for four hours and the audience was a little tired. However, when they heard that they were going to deliver the 10th anniversary gift package, everyone suddenly cheered up and looked at Zhang Ran with anticipation.
Zhang Ran raised his voice and said: "Century Peak has 197,869 formal employees. We will distribute shares according to the year when you join the company. One hundred shares a year. If you join the company less than a year, it is one hundred shares; if you join the company for ten years, it is one thousand shares. Well, this year's party ends here! Here, I wish you all a happy New Year and all the best!"
At the beginning of last year, Century Peak's stock reached $537 per share on a private stock trading platform; in the middle of the year, Century Peak split the stock price, one share into ten shares; now Century Peak's stock price is $63.5 per share.
In other words, all employees at Century Peak can obtain at least $6,350 in stocks; while employees who have worked for ten years can obtain $63,500 in stocks.
After the huge bomb was released, the scene was silent at first, and then there was a thunderous sound of cheers and screams. At the same time, the employees at the peak of more than 100,000 centuries in front of computers and TVs were also very excited, applauding and cheering.
