Chapter 408 The boss gave way too much!
"Hahaha, great! That's satisfying!"
Ye Fan laughed loudly, "I thought I could only earn a little money through hard work, but I didn't expect this opportunity to come so timely! A sure thing is a limit-up next Monday, a 20% profit, no doubt about it!"
In high spirits, he turned to Miao Zi, who had been standing quietly beside him, her eyes filled with undisguised shock and joy, and instructed her:
"Miao Zi, everyone on duty in the trading room today—including traders, assistants, pastry chefs, and cleaning staff—will receive a bonus of 20,000!"
He emphasized, "I'll pay today! In cash!"
"Yes, boss! Understood!" Miao Zi replied immediately. Executing orders was an instinct ingrained in her bones. She never questioned Ye Fan's decisions, only ensuring their efficient implementation.
She knew that Ye Fan's actions were to reward the troops and unite the troops.
Soon.
In a small meeting room outside the trading room.
Two stacks of brand-new, crisp 100-yuan bills (each stack containing 10,000 yuan) that smelled fresh with ink were solemnly handed over to each member by Miao Zi herself.
Shen Jun, Yang Bin, the twin assistants, pastry chef Lin Wei, and even the cleaning lady who worked tirelessly behind the scenes... everyone received a wonderful surprise!
Cash! Two thick stacks!
This intuitive visual and tactile impact is far superior to that of cold bank figures!
Miao Zi's choice of cash demonstrates her deep understanding of this principle—to make everyone truly feel the "weight" of the reward and experience the direct and strong connection between giving and receiving!
Seeing the barely suppressed excitement, gratitude, and even stronger loyalty on everyone's faces, Miao Zi knew that the boss had achieved the desired effect.
Outside the window, the afterglow of the setting sun shone on the K-line chart that had hit its daily limit, and also reflected on the excited faces inside the trading room.
Ye Fan knew that motivating the team required not only universal benefits but also fairness and value.
Core members who are exceptionally talented, give more, and make greater contributions naturally need to be treated differently.
He returned to his private office next to the trading room and called Miao Zi in.
The office door closed gently, shutting out the noise from outside.
Ye Fan looked at the woman in front of him, who was not only his closest bedmate but also his most capable right-hand woman, his eyes gentle yet solemn.
"Miao Zi," Ye Fan said clearly, "Although our relationship has long since gone beyond that of employer and employee, as the chief private secretary of Hongdou Capital, this is your official position, and you shall receive the full salary and benefits due to you."
He paused, then gave a figure that matched her abilities, responsibilities, and contributions: "Your annual salary is set at one million. You deserve it."
This number not only represents her market value, but also Ye Fan's recognition of her indispensable position.
Aside from the substantial assets Ye Fan personally provided her, this was the first formal salary she received based on her "position".
Miao Zi was slightly taken aback, then a hint of warmth and understanding flashed in her eyes.
She neither refused nor became overly agitated; she simply nodded calmly and professionally, as if accepting any work instruction: "Okay, boss. I'll handle the payroll contracts in a bit."
For her, Ye Fan's recognition and trust were more precious than the salary figures themselves.
Ye Fan nodded in satisfaction and then said, "In addition, Shen Jun and Yang Bin."
He mentioned the names of two key traders: "Their performance and the pressure they endured today deserve higher rewards. Starting next month, their base salary will increase to $20,000 per month."
Considering that they may handle larger amounts of funds in the future, Ye Fan added, "In the future, a performance-based commission mechanism will be set up separately based on the scale of funds managed and performance."
"As for the twin assistants, Sister Lin (the pastry chef), and Aunt Wang (the cleaning lady)," Ye Fan said gently, "you should reassess and raise their base salaries by one level, based on market rates and company standards. You can decide the specific increase."
He deliberately gave Miao Zi the decision-making power, which was both a sign of his trust in her abilities and a way to give her more authority in team management.
"Remember, today's bonus and year-end benefits are separate. Go out later and inform everyone of the salary adjustment decision."
"Okay, I understand." Miao Zi replied again, clearly noting down Ye Fan's instructions, and turned to walk towards the trading room.
Inside the trading room, everyone was still basking in the joy of the generous bonus.
Miao Zi stepped out, her clear and melodious voice drawing everyone's attention: "Everyone, please be quiet. The boss has another decision to announce."
Instantly, all eyes were on her.
Miao Zi's gaze swept over Shen Jun and Yang Bin, then looked at the twin assistants and Lin Wei, and finally landed on the somewhat flustered cleaning lady, Aunt Wang. Her voice was clear and steady: "Manager Shen, Manager Yang."
She first looked at the two key contributors: "The boss has decided that, effective immediately, your monthly base salary will be increased to 20,000 RMB. In the future, you will also enjoy additional performance incentives based on your performance."
Shen Jun and Yang Bin's eyes widened instantly, and their breaths even stopped for a moment!
A base salary of 20,000! That was an absolutely high salary in the financial industry in 2014! Add to that bonuses and future commissions... The huge surprise left them speechless with excitement, and they could only nod vigorously!
Miao Zi continued announcing: "Su Ran, Su Yu, Sister Lin Wei, Aunt Wang."
She looked at the others and said, "The boss has instructed that your base salaries will be increased accordingly based on the value of your positions and market levels. I will discuss the specific adjustment plan with each of you individually later. Similarly, bonuses and benefits will be calculated separately."
"Wow!"
"Thank you, boss! Thank you, Mr. Miao!"
The trading room erupted in cheers and applause that were even more enthusiastic and longer than before!
This time, the excitement wasn't just about the money, but also about the feeling of being seen, recognized, and cherished!
Especially for Lin Wei and Aunt Wang, in their past professional experience, they never thought that in a "high-end" financial company, their "logistics" positions could receive such respect and tangible rewards!
"Boss...the boss gave us way too much!" Shen Jun finally managed to find his voice, filled with emotion.
Yang Bin nodded vigorously, "Yes, the treatment is unbeatable!"
They knew that in other companies, even if they made great contributions, they would never receive such a rapid, direct, and universally beneficial return!
Lin Wei's eyes were a little moist. Holding Aunt Wang's hand, both of them were so excited that they didn't know what to say and could only thank her repeatedly.
Looking at the genuine smiles on the faces before her and the gleam of loyalty in their eyes, Miao Zi's icy expression softened.
She clearly sensed the message Ye Fan wanted to convey: in this team, there are no insignificant cogs, and everyone's contribution deserves respect and reward.
