Cutting-edge technology: Starting with individual stealth equipment

At 3 p.m., all members of DeepBlue Technology were present.

People gathered in the office area, some sitting and some standing.

Lin Chuan walked out of his office, looked around the work area, and said, "Is everyone here?"

"It's all here," Shen Yuxin replied.

"Okay." Lin Chuan looked around at all the employees and said, "I have something to tell you. Henghui's 1 billion yuan payment has arrived. According to the previous decision of the company's management, a portion of this profit will be distributed."

At this moment, the scene was very quiet, with only Lin Chuan's voice.

"First, there will be a dividend distribution of 5 million yuan."

Zhang Wei, Cheng Siyuan, and the other 15 founding team members already knew, so they weren't as excited as they had been at the beginning.

Other employees who joined DeepBlue Technology later were shocked and envious when they first heard about this. It's so important to follow the right person, let alone follow the right person early.

Lin Chuan continued, "Secondly, there's the bonus package. The company has decided to allocate 30 million yuan in cash as bonuses to share with all employees. The specific distribution plan will be sent to everyone's work email later. Here, I'll just read out a few numbers: Zhao Funing gets 159 million yuan, Cui Zhaohan gets 108 million yuan, and other colleagues receive between 3000 and 80 yuan."

After he finished speaking, everyone was quiet for three seconds, then erupted into a commotion.

"I have that too? I've only been here for less than two months, and I have at least 30..."

The two new employees, who had been with the company for less than two months, were incredible. All the employees cheered excitedly, and many exclaimed that they had joined a company that seemed like a dream.

One employee joked, "Is the boss trying to raise assassins?"

Lin Chuan raised his hand to quiet everyone down, and they all fell silent again.

"DeepBlue Technology has been established for almost a year now, as many of you probably know. This is my second entrepreneurial venture."

He then turned to look at Zhang Wei and other founding team members present.

"Zhang Wei and a dozen others started working with me a long time ago. When I left Skyworth, they all resigned without saying a word."

"New colleagues may not know me well. I'm actually a very simple person. If you work with me, I, Lin Chuan, will never treat anyone unfairly."

As soon as he finished speaking, Cheng Siyuan immediately said, "There's no doubt about that; the dozen or so of us are the most qualified to speak on this."

Zhang Wei and the others nodded in agreement. Otherwise, how could they have so readily resigned from Skyworth on the same day as Lin Chuan, and then become founding team members of DeepBlue Technology for their second venture?

The new employees present felt like they had known each other for a long time. If they had met Lin Chuan earlier, they might have been veterans and even had shares.

However, everyone knows that the company has a reserved option pool.

Although there are no stock options yet and I am not one of the first founding team members, joining DeepBlue Technology now makes me a senior employee, and if I perform well, I will definitely have the opportunity to receive stock options.

Lin Chuan looked at the group of employees and said, "But what I really want to say is that DeepBlue Technology is not just my company. Everyone has contributed to the success of the business, and of course, everyone enjoys the benefits of the company's growth. Enough with the chit-chat, that's all. You can't go wrong by following me in building this business."

Everyone immediately applauded enthusiastically, and smiles appeared on everyone's faces.

Finally, Lin Chuan smiled and said, "Now that everyone has money, I suggest you go and look at houses in Xin'an City as soon as possible. The current price of good locations is around 8,000 to 9,000. If you can pay in full, then pay in full. If not, then make a down payment. If you don't have enough for the down payment, contact the company. The company can provide each person with an interest-free loan of up to 500,000."

Lin Chuan added, "Buy the house sooner rather than later, it might not be this cheap anymore."

As soon as he finished speaking, another round of cheers and enthusiastic applause erupted. Who wouldn't want to follow a boss like that? Who wouldn't like a company like that?

Lin Chuan knew that money was something that could be easily distributed, and that only by sharing it could one accumulate more.

He is not at all worried that some people will start to live a life of leisure after achieving financial freedom, or retire early to enjoy life.

This is not necessarily a bad thing. A healthy company needs normal staff turnover. Both extremes, such as only hiring and not hiring or large-scale loss of core personnel, are undesirable. A healthy flow is one where there is both in and out.

Moreover, heroes from all over the world are as numerous as carp crossing a river. With such favorable treatment, countless people would be eager to get in, and if someone leaves, a replacement can be made very quickly.

Meeting adjourned.

……

After the meeting, everyone started discussing buying houses and cars.

Over the weekend, Zhang Wei, Cui Zhaohan, and their group of 23 people went to look at properties. Their target was a new development in Xin'an City.

It's a 20-minute drive from the company, and the surrounding area has excellent public infrastructure such as schools and hospitals.

At the entrance of the sales office, a real estate agent was already waiting; she was a woman in her early thirties.

She received a message yesterday that more than 20 people wanted to come and see the house. She thought it was a group purchase by some company, so she quickly transferred three colleagues to help.

At this moment, Cui Zhaohan and the others arrived at the sales office.

"Everyone, this way please." Wang Zhongjie stepped aside to lead the way, his gaze sweeping over the group of people.

They don't look like rich people; they're wearing polo shirts and plaid shirts.

She had some doubts in her heart, but her smile remained unchanged.

She'd seen too many people who only looked and didn't buy, and today was probably another wasted effort, but she still enthusiastically introduced the products.

"This building was handed over to residents at the end of last year, with unit sizes ranging from 89 to 142 square meters..."

Cui Zhaohan stood in front of the sand table, looking at the model of the residential area.

The greening rate is good, pedestrians and vehicles are separated, and there are children's play areas and fitness trails.

"How much did this 122-square-meter apartment cost in total?"

"8620 yuan per square meter, total price is about 105 million yuan, down payment is 30%, around 31 yuan."

The others were also looking at their preferred apartment layouts, asking questions from time to time.

Cui Zhaohan did the math. He received a bonus of 108 million yuan from the company, but this amount was before tax. The progressive tax was very high, and he had to pay more than 40 yuan in taxes, which made him feel quite pained.

However, the company also provided an interest-free loan of 50 yuan to cover the shortfall.

Cui Zhaohan decided to apply for the 50 yuan from the company and then buy the house outright with the full amount. He had his eye on this house.

As time went on, the other colleagues also selected their preferred houses.

That afternoon, 19 out of the 23 people paid the deposit directly and bought the house very decisively.

Because everyone works at DeepBlue Technology, they are extremely optimistic about the future; even if they take out a loan, they believe they can pay it off in just a few years.

The others, including Zhang Wei, didn't buy anything; they planned to look at other properties.

The agent went from initial skepticism to shock, then to ecstasy, and finally beaming with joy, becoming even more enthusiastic.

The commissions from these nineteen orders amounted to a considerable sum.

During this time, she found out which unit Cui Zhaohan and others worked for, and learned that it was called DeepBlue Technology, a technology company in the field of environmental protection.

The company's military projects are top secret, and it presents itself to the outside world as a private technology company.

The agent didn't ask too many questions, but she knew that from today onwards she had to remember the name "Deep Blue Technology".
