July 24, Monday, Henglong Group.

After the signing was completed, all the funds for Jiahe finally arrived today.

After Zhao Chen went to work, Chen Xi opened the door and came in immediately with a smile on his face:

"Zhao Zong, Jiahe's 2.6 billion, all have arrived."

Zhao Chen raised his head, took the bank receipt she handed over, and glanced at it.

2.6 billion.

One point is a lot.

From this moment on, Henglong Property and Henglong Group have nothing to do with each other.

He nodded:

"Notify Finance Department that it can be entered into the account."

Chen Xi was about to turn around when he suddenly remembered something:

"By the way Zhao Zong, the company group is very lively today."

Zhao Chen looked at her:

"What's wrong?"

Chen Xi laughed:

"Do you still remember the Special Bonus that was set at the beginning of the year? The one linked to the debt ratio."

Zhao Chen remembered.

At the beginning of the year, in order to motivate employees, he set a policy:

If the consolidated debt ratio (including Off-Balance Sheet Liabilities) drops below 50% at the end of the year, each employee can receive Special Bonus worth 20% of his or her annual total salary.

At that time, everyone thought it was a fantasy--

At that time, the debt ratio of Henglong, not including Off-Balance Sheet Liabilities, exceeded 70%. The stock price plummeted. Who would believe that the target would be reached by the end of the year?

But now--

Chen Xi smiled and said:

"Finance Department did some calculations just now. After the property was sold, the combined debt ratio of Off-Balance Sheet Liabilities has dropped to 54.9%."

She paused:

"The target line set at the beginning of the year was 50%. At that time, everyone thought it was impossible to achieve it. Now it is only 4.9 percentage points short of it."

Zhao Chen nodded:

"What did the group say?"

Chen Xi handed over the phone:

"See for yourself."

In Henglong's work group, group messages scroll at a rate of ten per second.

"Holy shit, shit, shit! 54.9%?"

"Finance Department just sent the notice, it's true!"

"The setting at the beginning of the year was 50%, right? It's still 4.9% short?"

"Yes, the debt ratio after merging Off-Balance Sheet Liabilities."

"I remember at the beginning of the year, someone said that this goal was simply impossible. At that time, no one knew how many Off-Balance Sheet Liabilities there were."

"I also remember that at the time I thought it was a painted cake."

"Who would have thought that it would drop so much in half a year!"

"Then Special Bonus is stable?"

"It's still 4.9% short of that. We have to drop it below 50% before the end of the year."

"At the current speed, we will definitely be able to do it before the end of the year!"

"Yes, the property was sold only a few days ago, and the price dropped so much in one go."

"Off-Balance Sheet Liabilities is still cleaning up over there."

"If Off-Balance Sheet Liabilities solves another part, maybe it can reach the standard ahead of schedule."

"If the target is reached early, will the bonus be paid in advance?"

"It's a great idea, I'll definitely issue it uniformly by the end of the year."

"That's nice! At least I know I can get it!"

"Yes, yes, I used to think it was a dream, but now I feel it's right in front of me."

"The prizes within reach are the most delicious."

"Hahahahahaha you're right!"

The crowd was filled with joy.

Someone started @Chen Xi:

"@Chen Xi Mr. Chen, how is the cleanup going at Off-Balance Sheet Liabilities?"

Chen Xi did not reply immediately.

But three minutes later, Zhao Chen personally sent a message to the group.

Zhao Chen: Off-Balance Sheet Liabilities currently has 2 billion left and is being liquidated in an orderly manner. According to the current debt reduction process, by the end of the third quarter, the combined debt ratio is expected to drop below 50%.

The group immediately exploded.

"The end of the third quarter??? Isn't that two months from now?"

"Earlier than the end of the year!"

"Zhao Zong speaks out in person, it must be true!"

"So Special Bonus may be available in advance?"

"It's not about getting it in advance, it's about locking it in advance!"

"It's so cool!"

"Zhao Zong is awesome!"

"Zhao Zong is awesome +1"

"Zhao Zong awesome+10086"

"When I look at that 54.9% now, why do I feel happier than making money?"

"Because that was something that I thought was impossible before, but now it's almost possible."

"Yes, yes, that feels really good."

"When Mr. Lin was here in the past, none of the cakes he drew were realized."

"Stop talking, why are you mentioning her?"

"It's just bad luck."

"By the way, those people who believed her words and left their jobs are probably feeling regretful now, right?"

"I will definitely regret it! 20% of Special Bonus is about to be obtained."

"She deserves it. She doesn't trust anyone who makes them believe her."

"You can't blame them. Henglong really didn't look good at that time."

"What about now? Does your face hurt?"

"Hahahahaha, stop talking, they will cry again."

The group burst into laughter.

Twelve noon, a certain restaurant.

Several former Henglong employees sit together.

The dishes on the table were almost untouched.

A person is staring at the screen of his mobile phone with a bad look on his face:

"Have you seen the screenshot of the Henglong group?"

Another person came over and took a look, and his face darkened:

"...54.9%? They said it would drop below 50% by the end of the third quarter?"

"Yes. The goal I set at the beginning of the year was one that I thought was impossible at the time."

Silence.

The sound of chopsticks falling on the table.

"I resigned at the beginning of the year." A person said, his voice was harsh,

"At that time, Lin Wanqing told me that the goal was to draw a pie, which Zhao Chen simply couldn't do. Let me find a way out as soon as possible.

Now it seems that she just wants to take advantage of our resignation to put pressure on Zhao Chen."

Another person smiled bitterly:

"Me too. She said the consolidated debt ratio dropped below 50%? She's just dreaming."

"She told me the same thing."

"Fuck."

One person put down his chopsticks hard:

"What she said is all nonsense now! It has dropped to 54.9% in half a year, and it is about to reach the standard!"

"She worked at Henglong for more than ten years, and was finally kicked out by Zhao Chen. She still has a lot of assets, but we will never find such a good company again."

"We left after listening to her words."

"She was tricked."

There was another moment of silence.

A man picked up his wine glass and drank it all in one gulp:

"Stop talking. The more you talk, the more you regret it."

"What I regret is not the 20% bonus. What I regret is that I didn't see clearly who was doing the work and who was drawing the pie."

"Lin Wanqing has been making cakes for more than ten years, and Zhao Chen baked them in just one year."

"Haha."

"Where is she now? I heard she got together with that Lu Shen, and she still wants to get over it?"

"What kind of book should I read? People like her will cause harm wherever they go."

"Anyway, I've seen it clearly. When looking for a job in the future, first check who the boss is."

"A boss like Zhao Chen is hard to come by."

No one spoke anymore, they just kept drinking.

But everyone has an account in mind.

The name of that account is Lin Wanqing.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, a post suddenly appeared on a certain forum.

This post rushed to the hot search list with unstoppable popularity.
