Chapter 157 Semi-annual report with soaring performance
The next day, the office of the chairman of Metaverse Intelligent Control’s new headquarters.
Lu An stood by the window in the office, with an excellent view overlooking the entire headquarters campus and the city.
The glass curtain wall and building structure of the chairman's office have been specially strengthened. This was temporarily required by the relevant departments during the construction period. It was obviously out of Lu An's personal safety protection regulations.
The glass curtain wall of the office is so thick that it can withstand the blow of an anti-equipment sniper rifle.
Lu An stood by the window and looked at the park view for a while, then sat down at his desk, when there was a knock on the door.
Come in.”
Looking up, Meng Qiuyan entered the office: "The company's results for the first half of the year have come out, please sign."
Handing the materials to Lu An, Meng Qiuyan said: "The company's operating income in the first half of the year was 226.025 billion, a year-on-year increase of +280. 75%, with a net profit of 84.579 billion, a year-on-year increase of +146.37%. Specifically, in the first half of the year, the cumulative sales of bionic prostheses were 2.4525 million units, the export volume was 157.500 units, and the total revenue was 85.275 billion.
Xiaoyuan Robot sold 65,100 units in the first quarter, and soared to 105,700 units in the second quarter. Because of the new performance growth point of elderly care institutions, the cumulative sales volume in the first half of the year was 170,800 units, and the cumulative revenue was 134.727 billion.
In addition to these two core businesses, other income in the first half of the year was about 6.023 billion, of which insurance business income was about 4 billion.
The company's net assets at the end of the period were 164.562 billion and cash flow was 137.9 billion.
The company’s cash flow last quarter was 68.9 billion, which suddenly expanded to 137.9 billion. In addition to strong performance in the second quarter, it also received an advance payment of 39 billion in advance, which is the solid-state lattice battery business.
Wind and solar power stations, eight major car companies, and smartphone manufacturers have signed purchase orders totaling 161.45 billion yuan with Metaverse.
This more than 160 billion was not reflected in the first half of the year's report because Metaverse Intelligent Control has not yet delivered the goods.
Wind and photovoltaic power station business will begin to be delivered in the second half of the year, while new energy vehicles and smartphones will not be delivered until next year. The revenue of 161.45 billion will be reflected in the statements of the second half of the year and next year respectively.
Finally, Lu An immediately signed the document and stamped it with his official seal. He raised his head and glanced at Meng Qiuyan and asked: "The company has 1,276 people who are eligible for the allotment. Have their allotment arrangements been finalized?"
Meng Qiuyan immediately nodded and replied: "It's been finalized, oh, I'll bring it over for you to see. If you think it's ok, just sign it."
After saying that, she turned and left the office.
After waiting for a while, Meng Qiuyan came back again and handed the document to Lu An.
Opened it and read it quickly. Lu An nodded and said, "Okay, let's arrange it this way."
After speaking, he immediately signed and approved, and added: "Announce it."
Meng Qiuyan nodded: "Okay."
Meng Qiuyan followed the usual practice and posted a performance post using Lu An’s super moderator account in the Yuanjie community.
Still only announcing revenue and net profit as before. In the first half of the year, revenue was 226.025 billion yuan and net profit was 84.579 billion yuan.
At about the same time, Metaverse Intelligent Holdings issued an internal notice and announced the company’s third-phase allotment list, with a total of 1,276 people receiving the allotment.
This matter immediately became the biggest hot topic in the Yuanjie community. The company's more than 20,000 employees were constantly discussing it either in the community or in the company.
“Huh? Why did I also allocate shares? I remember that it seems that there are still two and a half months before the three-year employment period is completed. The company cannot make a mistake, right?” At this moment, a junior employee, Engineering Weilun, saw his name on the announced list. He was surprised and confused at the same time.
A colleague at the desk next to him immediately said: "You probably only looked at the list at the back and didn't read the announcement above, right?"
Hearing this, Cheng Weilun immediately said: "Yeah, how do you say it?"
His colleague replied: "Announcement As mentioned here, all those companies that must meet the three-year period within this year will be allotted shares in advance, and the advance will not affect next year’s dividends. Regardless of whether you complete the three-year period in July, October, or December, you will definitely be able to participate in dividends next year. The company only arranges stock rights allocations once a year. If you are not allotted shares in advance, you will not receive dividends next year.”
Hearing this, Cheng Weilun suddenly realized that he flipped through the announcement and found that this was indeed the explanation.
The company has new employees joining every month or even every week, and the time required to meet the three-year period is not fixed, and it is impossible for the company to arrange them one by one.
The allotment resolution is held every year, so as long as employees are determined to meet the three-year entry requirements before December 31 of this year, even if it is actually a few months later, as long as they are within the year, they will be deemed to meet the standards and be included in the allotment list.
Cheng Weilun was allocated 1,000 shares, with a minimum of 500 shares, and the other 500 shares were over-allocated based on his contribution.
In any case, according to the company's regulations, all regular employees of Yuanjie Intelligent Control must have a guaranteed minimum allocation of 500 shares after three years of employment.
As for the overweighted part, it must be evaluated based on weighting indicators such as performance contribution.
Cheng Weilun immediately looked at the performance post posted by the super moderator account of the big BOSS in the community. After doing the calculation, he was very surprised.
The company's net profit in the first half of the year was 84.579 billion yuan, and 20% of the net profit was used as cash dividends.
This is equivalent to the performance in the first half of the year alone. He can get a cash dividend of 169,100 yuan for these 1,000 shares. What makes Cheng Weilun even more surprised is that this is the performance data of the half-year report.
Even if the performance in the second half of the year has zero month-on-month growth and remains the same as the performance in the first half of the year, these 1,000 shares are expected to pay dividends of 330,000 yuan next year.
He is now at the P2 level, and his corresponding annual salary is 325,000 yuan.
But now the actual annual salary is 351,000 yuan, and the rank has not been improved, it is still P2 level.
Because of another company regulation, starting from the next year after joining the company, the salary will be increased by 8% every year, with a maximum increase of 20 years. He has already received one increase since joining the company.
In three months, he will have been employed for three years, and will receive a second salary increase the following month. At that time, the annual salary will be 379,000 yuan, and the monthly salary will increase from the current 29,250 yuan to 31,590 yuan.
Having received a virtual equity allocation of 1,000 shares, based on this year's performance expectations, he is expected to receive 330,000 cash dividends next year, and his actual income has almost doubled.
…
Cheng Weilun got off work happily and took the company's free bus line back home.
He commutes to and from get off work by taking the bus provided by the company. Yuanjie Intelligent Control has dozens of routes covering the entire Jianing City. Employees who do not have their own scooters can wait at the nearest bus stop without having to squeeze in the bus with other citizens.
At this moment, Cheng Weilun returned home, and the Xiaoyuan robot at home saw him coming back, and immediately said: "Welcome home, master."
Cheng Weilun, who is still single, bought the Xiaoyuan housekeeping robot three months ago with a loan of 500,000 yuan, and he also took a loan with him for the house he lives in now. The combined monthly mortgage payment and robot loan reached 23,000 yuan.
His salary is 29,256 yuan, about 27,000 yuan after tax, and the company pays the full amount of social security, five insurances and one fund.
After paying off the monthly payment every month, there is still 4,000 yuan left.
In fact, as long as he does not buy Xiaoyuan Robot, he can reduce his monthly payment by 15,000 yuan. However, even if the monthly payment is 23,000 yuan, Cheng Weilun has no pressure at all.
Because he knew this was short-term and had high income expectations for the future, he dared to borrow 500,000 yuan to buy a small-yuan robot and enjoy it first, and it was a short-term loan.
This is because working at Metaverse Intelligent Control gave him confidence. His salary will increase by more than 2,300 yuan in three months, and next year’s dividends will bring an additional income of more than 300,000 yuan. Of course, there is no pressure.
"Xiaobai, is the food ready?" Cheng Weilun asked. He changed the name of the robot, which can be customized.
"It's done." Xiaobai quickly responded and answered.
Cheng Weilun came to the dining table and sat down. After a while, the Xiaobai robot went to the kitchen and served the prepared meals to the table, and then it went to sweep and mop the floor.
You can have hot meals when you get home. This is the reason why he took out a loan in advance and bought a Xiaoyuan robot.
· More than 65% of the employees of Metaverse Intelligent Control have purchased a Xiaoyuan robot. Most of those who have not yet purchased are fresh graduates who have just joined the job. 788,800 is still a bit expensive, and those without financial resources still need to save one or two years of salary before they can afford it.
But the Xiaoyuan robot is already on their wish list and they will definitely buy it in the next year or two.
Cheng Weilun was also checking his cell phone while eating.
Today, the company released its first-half results. In addition, the issue of share placement has now spread beyond the Yuanjie community and has become a hot topic on the Internet, making countless migrant workers envious and crying.
In China, the annual salary of many programmers is one million, which is the upper limit. Moreover, performance appraisal pressure is huge, and overtime work is the norm.
· Whenever Yuanjie Intelligent Control releases its results and allocates shares, it always becomes a hot search topic and is hotly discussed by netizens. During this period, the number of resumes received by the company increases significantly.
The company's remuneration and benefits are good, and the working atmosphere and corporate cultural values are also talked about by workers. In short, Yuanjie Intelligent Control is good everywhere. The only disadvantage is that the job competition is too fierce. Sometimes there are even dozens or hundreds of people competing for a P2 level position.
After all, even if you are a P2-level employee, if you successfully join the company now, and work at Metaverse Intelligent Control for five years, your annual income is expected to exceed one million.
Although the annual starting salary for P2-level employees is RMB 325,000, the salary will be increased by 8% every year. After five years, the annual salary will rise to RMB 477,500. After three years of employment, they will receive at least 500 virtual shares as a guarantee. After five years, the annual salary plus equity dividends will be stable.
Cheng Weilun couldn't help but sigh when he saw the hot topic on the Internet about the fierce competition for Metaverse Intelligent Control jobs.
Because he is an ordinary undergraduate graduate, not a double first-class university, but three years ago it was not as intense as it is now. At that time, graduates from double first-class universities basically entered steadily.
Now it is almost a threshold to be admitted to a double first-class university. Cheng Weilun was given P1 level treatment when he joined the job, but he was very motivated. His colleagues grabbed a lot of high-profile resumes, which put a lot of pressure on him.
Under this kind of pressure, he made rapid progress and was promoted to P2 level in the second year.
At this moment, Cheng Weilun was eating and glanced at the housekeeping robot that was mopping the floor in the living room. He suddenly thought that it would be even better if the appearance of the Xiaoyuan robot could be greatly upgraded and turned into a cute android cyber girl.
It would be great if we could have deep social interaction.
Should I say it, this idea is not limited to Cheng Weilun. Many employees in the company have long discussed the possibility of cyber robot companions. This is already a very hot topic in the Metaverse community.
Even the majority of netizens are discussing the possibility of Metaverse Intelligent Control to create a cyber companion robot.
No one doubts that Yuanjie Intelligent Control has this technical strength, and there must be no technical problems. Many netizens even called on Lu An to launch such a product, which received support and response from thousands of netizens.
