Chapter 514: Company Benefits
How could Ding Fan possibly want Peter's repayment?
Although Ding Fan had solved a stubborn problem for Peter, to Ding Fan, it was merely a casual act.
Moreover, Ding Fan had his own considerations, knowing well that his time at the Dancheng Branch Company was limited, so what he could do now was to establish good connections widely.
As a result, this was greatly beneficial for Jiangyuan Pharmaceutical Factory.
Seeing that Ding Fan insisted on not accepting any form of repayment, Peter's admiration for him only increased.
With Ding Fan demonstrating the techniques of Chinese medicine, Dyna and others had their horizons broadened. Everyone's understanding of Chinese medicine deepened further.
Since today marked the first day of Jiangyuan Pharmaceutical Factory's sales conference, after a brief stay, Dyna and the rest took their leave.
After all, being responsible for Jiangyuan Pharmaceutical Factory, Ding Fan still had his duties to attend to.
During this period, Ding Fan had refined more than five hundred Calm Heart Pills. The sales conference started and in less than half a day, all five hundred Calm Heart Pills were sold out.
Originally, it was planned that the ultimate version of these five hundred Calm Heart Pills would take several days to sell out, but everyone was surprised that it only took half a day!
In just half a day, the sales had reached ten million US dollars.
This indeed set a sales record for Jiangyuan Pharmaceutical Factory. It's important to note that before Ding Fan took over, the annual sales of the factory weren't even this much, and back then it was only important not to lose money.
Although the sales conference wasn't long, its significance was profound; although the ultimate version of Calm Heart Pills generated over ten million dollars in revenue, what truly helped Jiangyuan Pharmaceutical Factory was that after the sales conference, the sales of the ordinary Calm Heart Pills also began to skyrocket.
Statistics showed later that during the month of the sales conference, the sales revenue of the ordinary Calm Heart Pills increased by more than twenty times compared to the past.
It can be said that Jiangyuan Pharmaceutical Factory's Calm Heart Pills, in a very short time, directly captured a large portion of the market share. Under Ding Fan's leadership, in less than half a year, the factory went from being an obscure small pharmaceutical factory to a major domestic pharmaceutical manufacturer.
On the evening that the sales conference ended, Ding Fan uncharacteristically summoned all the key members of the company for a meeting.
In the conference room, under Yan Ruyao's leadership, all the major and minor officers of Jiangyuan Pharmaceutical Factory sat eagerly on both sides of the conference table.
It's worth mentioning that just a few months ago, Yan Ruyao was still struggling to find funds, and now, she stood tall and proud.
"It's quite rare for me to convene everyone for a meeting. The main reason I've gathered you today is to give commendations," Ding Fan said.
Upon hearing Ding Fan's words, smiles appeared on everyone's faces.
The dispute over the pricing of the ultimate version of Calm Heart Pills had lasted quite a while, but all controversies were resolved by Ding Fan today. Besides, the ultimate version of Calm Heart Pills sold out in half a day, and it also boosted the sales of the ordinary version.
It can be said that today was an unprecedented victory for Jiangyuan Pharmaceutical Factory, and for everyone at the Dancheng Branch Company!
And the person who led everyone to this victory was naturally Ding Fan.
"I think we'll proceed like this for the rewards. Department heads, each will receive one ultimate version Calm Heart Pill," Ding Fan said, looking toward Hu Jin at his side. "Manager Hu, do you think this is acceptable?"
Rewarding an ultimate version of Calm Heart Pill?!
While it was feasible to reward efforts for the successful sales conference, Hu Jin had not anticipated that Ding Fan would be so generous; to start awarding with a Calm Heart Pill was something he hadn't expected.
It's known that currently the official price for one ultimate version of a Calm Heart Pill is two hundred thousand US dollars, which equates to about 1.2 to 1.3 million yuan in Huaxia currency. Moreover, on the black market, the price of Calm Heart Pills is even higher, now having soared to one million US dollars!
Ding Fan casually pulled out 1.2 to 1.3 million as a reward! If converted to black market prices, that would be 8 to 9 million!!!
Hu Jin was shocked, and so were the others. Reaching their managerial positions, they were certainly quite insightful.
However, even these people had never heard of a company awarding its employees with something worth millions just for recognition!
Ding Fan surveyed the room, where everyone was now dumbfounded, and he smiled faintly. "Since nobody has any objections, let's proceed with this plan."
With a decisive strike, Ding Fan settled the matter.
Ding Fan had his reasons for acting this way.
During his time in the Cultivation World, Ding Fan had realized that if you want others to serve you loyally to death, you must provide benefits to your subordinates; without benefits, nobody would serve you!
A single phrase made it very clear. That is, if you're having meat, you must at least offer others a sip of the soup.
"Apart from this reward, I would like to announce that all employees' salaries will be doubled. I think we should also introduce an annual bonus. Every year, the company will select ten outstanding employees and ten managers. Those who are selected will be awarded one ultimate version of a Calm Heart Pill," Ding Fan stated.
The attendees in the hall looked at one another in shock.
Typical company year-end bonuses might account to a gif worth a few thousand dollars at most. But the year-end bonus announced by Ding Fan amounted to millions!
This generosity was truly unparalleled!
Moreover, what's even more important is that everyone's wages were doubled.
You must understand that the salaries of employees at various units under the Dancheng Branch Company are already high, but now Ding Fan intends to double them.
The ordinary employees working at the branch now nearly match the junior executives of typical foreign or joint-venture businesses.
Hu Jin glanced at Ding Fan.
Ding Fan, indeed, was silent until he made a startling revelation!
It was usually hard to catch a glimpse of Ding Fan, but whenever he appeared, it was bound to be a major event!
Setting aside the incident this morning where Dyna from the World Red Cross Society hailed Ding Fan as her benefactor, let us talk about this matter of enhancing employee welfare.
This increase in welfare would definitely boost the enthusiasm throughout the company. Hu Jin could already envision the vigorous development of Jiangyuan Pharmaceutical Factory soon.
With all employees exerting effort together, it would be impossible for the company not to grow.
In this meeting, Ding Fan did not say much, but he had completely stirred up everyone's enthusiasm.
Previous capitalists would love nothing more than to carve out a bit more profit from their workers. Yet, after earning money in the company, the first thing Ding Fan thought about was improving the welfare and treatment of the employees.
Following such a leader was surely a great fortune in their lives! What reason did they have not to work hard?
After Ding Fan announced the forthcoming reward measures, Hu Jin began to arrange the next phase of the company's work.
As for the specific company operations, Ding Fan did not understand, so he quietly listened on the side.
Hu Jin was nonetheless decisive in her actions. She explained the tasks for the next phase of the company in less than ten minutes and made a very scientific distribution of work content.
Seeing Hu Jin's competence, Ding Fan was secretly pleased that he had recruited such a capable assistant. It seemed that with Hu Jin around, he could afford to relax a bit.
And Hu Jin was also happy about this, feeling truly free to make a big effort and fulfill her ambitions at this moment.
Just when the meeting was about to end, someone knocked on the conference room door. Shortly thereafter, a tall woman entered from outside.
What surprised everyone was that the person who walked in was none other than Qin Manshu, the head of Qin's Group.
Ding Fan was also momentarily taken aback, as he had not expected Qin Manshu to come.
Once Qin Manshu entered the conference room, Ding Fan led everyone in standing up to welcome her. Regardless of anything else, the real boss behind the branch was still Qin Manshu.
"Manager Qin, what brings you here today?" said Ding Fan with a smile at Qin Manshu.
Strictly speaking, Ding Fan and Qin Manshu were friends by now.
Qin Manshu was as dignified and imposing as ever.
Today, Qin Manshu was wearing a black business suit.
However, Qin Manshu's beauty was not at all hidden by the business attire; on the contrary, her long legs, her tall figure, and her curvaceous form became even more attractive in professional attire.
"The sales meeting was so successful today, I naturally wanted to come and congratulate you!" said Qin Manshu with a beaming smile.
Ding Fan promptly invited Qin Manshu to sit down.
After sitting down, Qin Manshu also gestured for everyone else in the conference room to sit.
"The family head has also heard about the matter regarding the final price of the 'Stabilizing Pill'. I originally wanted to intervene and solve it, but the family head forbade it, insisting that you could handle it," Qin Manshu said, smiling at Ding Fan. "It seems the family head knows you well. Eventually, Xiao Dao not only failed to steal a chicken but lost a handful of rice... Now, not only has he brought disgrace upon himself, he has even been stripped of his Japanese citizenship."
Ding Fan chuckled. "Manager Qin, you surely didn't come today just to praise me, did you?"
Qin Manshu then continued, "I am here today because there are some documents that need your signature."
After speaking, she directly pulled out a stack of documents from her briefcase.
At that moment, a secretary promptly and respectfully handed the documents Qin Manshu had taken out to Ding Fan.
Ding Fan was momentarily startled, as he was unaware of any documents that needed his signature. He then took the documents handed over by Qin Manshu.
When Ding Fan opened the documents and read through the contents, he was stunned.
The documents turned out to be a company transfer contract.
"What does this mean?" Ding Fan looked at Qin Manshu.
"Brother Fan, starting today, the branch company is being transferred to you," Qin Manshu said with a smile. "If you don't sign this contract today, I won't have a good way to face the family head."
After reviewing the documents and pondering for a moment, Ding Fan took a pen and signed his name directly on the contract...
