Zhang Kun was just about to reply when suddenly quite a few people below shouted, "Boss Yan is righteous, what he said makes sense!"
The caraman, very professional, imdiately turned the lens towards the surrounding crowd. Seeing the cara co over, everyone started shouting even more enthusiastically. They kept shouting several tis until the cara moved away, and then quieted down.
Zhang Kun tily added, "Most of the people below are company employees and residents from nearby villages and towns. They all ca after hearing about this, so let’s interview them..."
...
Shortly after the cash escort car left, Zhang Kun, having gathered enough material, hurried to the TV station—yes, this little newspaper reporter has been poached by the TV station, officially saying goodbye to the newspaper that couldn’t let him be in the spotlight.
The news was broadcast at noon, including several interview clips, and those who made it onto TV were thrilled.
The most amusing was the interview clip of a mute person. Zhang Kun was walking with a microphone, feeling emotional, then walked to a group of horseback riders to interview their feelings. But when he reached out with the microphone, it turned out to be pointed at the mute.
The mute was also quite excited, saying that this reporter had been coming for years, interviewing everyone, yet had never interviewed him. He imdiately started gesturing towards the microphone...
Zhang Kun was a bit confused when he handed the microphone to the mute, but seeing that the mute was happy, he felt it was no big deal. After all, this wasn’t a live broadcast, only a few clips would be used in the end.
Even more amusing was that after the mute ’spoke,’ Zhang Kun earnestly comnted, "This employee’s words fully express his excitent and gratitude towards President Yan’s generosity. He also represents hundreds of employees in Cow Flower Company..."
But to everyone’s surprise, during the news editing, a shot of the mute actually appeared. Even though the screen was accompanied by a narrator’s voice, the entire Sancha River Township, and even many people in Wancheng City, laughed hysterically upon seeing the news—those familiar with Cow Flower Company knew that Yan Fei’s company employed disabled individuals, veterans, which was previously specially reported in the news.
Hiring disabled people and veterans, even disabled veterans, is positive energy. Several news dia have reported this, not just one or two, and many people know that among the few people Boss Yan started his business with, there was a diligent mute.
...
For the people of Sancha River Township, including those out-of-town guests visiting relatives, this day was a rather joyous occasion for everyone. They realized what grandeur truly was—the display case full of gold that Boss Yan allowed everyone to co and visit.
Many who ca to the market took a detour to see during their return at noon, almost blinded by the golden glow. Old Gao was nearby with a few people, setting up a small square table, drinking tea while guarding it, enjoying their tea with gusto.
Although there was a continuous stream of visitors, everyone was quite orderly. This isn’t the era where everyone carries a dormitory cara; a re look was satisfying enough. To satisfy curiosity and have conversation topics to boast about afterward.
...
The next day, just as preparation for the summary eting was starting, Yan Fei was watching Heizi arrange hospitality for the county and city attendees when suddenly he received a call. On the other end, the police officer Xu Changsheng furiously said, "Boss Yan, if you don’t co, I’ll just take people and leave!"
Yan Fei was puzzled, "What’s going on? What happened to make Director Xu so angry?"
Xu Changsheng jumped up and down on the other end, "Co see for yourself at the bridgehead; you’re still calling yourselves an advanced environntal company! If you don’t co, by the ti your eting is finished, you’ll never be environntal again..."
Yan Fei casually pulled over a horse and rode to the bridgehead.
Upon reaching the bridgehead, he was dumbfounded.
From the turn near the old cattle farm stretching west, who knew how far beyond, the road was densely packed with people. Firecrackers and fireworks lined up on the ground, looking more like they were about to explode the road than celebrate.
Before he could ask what was happening, Xu Changsheng ran over, "These are all your people; quickly say sothing and make them clean up. Look at this ss! If reporters catch this, they’ll wonder what you’re up to!"
There were a few old-tirs next to Xu Changsheng who complained to Yan Fei, "Boss Yan, we’re here to celebrate. Look at what Officer Xu says, what’s wrong with us doing this? Our children are doing well with you, this year they can take ho a little gold bowl. Our village has to be happy too, right? We can’t even set off a firecracker..."
Seeing these old-tirs and hearing their words, Yan Fei suddenly understood what they were up to!
Wasn’t it just yesterday that the west village set off fireworks for a while? And today, other villages want to do the sa—those who ca have folks working at the cattle farm, like Guan Village, where Guan Shi and five others started early and have always done well, sure to win awards. They’re just waiting for the news to co so they can set off fireworks to celebrate once Guan Shi cos to receive his award.
The situation is similar for others too. Seeing several leaders with old phones, Yan Fei deduced that soone must be at the venue passing the news. They’re just waiting for soone from their village to go pick up an award, then this side will echo with fireworks.
Understanding things, Yan Fei felt quite speechless. While the impact would be huge, it wasn’t really good. Once the fireworks were set off, the not-too-wide road would be covered in red paper scraps—even if there wasn’t wind now, once the conference attendees left and the cars cleared, the road would look quite a sight!
Imagining the fluttering red paper, the scene seed outrageously grand!
Thinking this, Yan Fei glanced at the impatient Xu Changsheng, thought for a mont, and said, "Pack everything up, it’s way too much, our fun is fine, but both sides are cattle farms, loud noises aren’t good for them. Here’s the deal, tell everyone one firecracker per village will be enough to show the sentint. Later on, during the New Year, we will organize a dragon and lion dance event, and I’ll put up the prize money, letting everyone have a good showdown."
"Boss Yan, how much prize money will you be offering?" Before the old-tirs could say anything, a young man jumped up and shouted towards Yan Fei on horseback.
"We’ll pick first, second, and third prizes; first prize is ten thousand, second eight thousand, third five thousand, and several encouragent prizes each a thousand. That’s it; later go and tell them, when to convene and we can discuss together." Yan Fei spoke without hesitation. This kind of event was simple. Finding a few reputable and authoritative people as judges would do.
Morale needs to be stirred up regularly, just like so companies train and hype their employees frequently. When everyone’s morale is high, there’s energy in everything, reducing people’s positivity isn’t wise. Spending tens of thousands on prizes is worth this happiness for the whole township.
With the new promise, so people imdiately began organizing the young n to collect things.
Xu Changsheng finally breathed a sigh of relief, it was horrifying! Lining the road with fireworks and firecrackers over two miles long is not only pollution but dangerous!
In this season, with dry and flammable conditions, setting off fireworks and firecrackers during the New Year would be problematic if anything goes wrong; he, as the head, wouldn’t be able to answer for it.
Thankfully, the collection was tily; just as most of the items were gathered, rows of big and small cars arrived. Boss Yan didn’t have preparations in mind, seeing Zhou Dalian leading a group looking all official, acting as usher, ant he, still seated on horseback, couldn’t just walk away.
Might as well greet them on horseback!
Watching the people arrive, each looking puzzled by the situation on the road, Yan Fei dismounted, handed the reins to a nearby person, and greeted them with a cheerful explanation, "They’re just here for the festivities; you see, I’ve had them clear up the items!"
Once everyone arrived, amidst this chaotic yet orderly, lively and jubilant atmosphere, Cow Flower Company’s annual summary and comndation eting officially kicked off. With recorded firecracker sounds echoing from the trumpet, the eting began!
