Soon, the administrative guy helped Wu Bin process all the internal network items, including internal network permissions, TPDb website and internal forum employee accounts, and so on.

Wu Bin took the mouse from the administrative guy’s hand.

Hmm…

This mouse, this keyboard, this screen…

Comfortable!

Already accustomed to office computers that cut corners and saved wherever possible, Wu Bin was practically moved to tears to be able to touch such an office computer.

Just thinking about being able to type with such a comfortable keyboard made him excited!

He looked at Hao Yun, hesitating for a moment about how he should address her.

According to her position, Hao Yun was now the head of the Human Resources department. If he wanted to be more respectful, he should call her “Director.”

If calling her by her position seemed too rigid or distant, he should use something like “Sister Hao” or “Sister Yun.”

At the very least, call her “Senior”?

But Wu Bin was older than Hao Yun, and also had more years of work experience…

This was rather awkward.

So, Wu Bin was a bit conflicted and planned to observe how others addressed her.

As a result, he found that everyone seemed to call each other by their names…

Wu Bin was a bit confused and secretly asked the male colleague next to him.

“In our department, we directly address each other by name?”

The guy who had just returned from the snack area, frantically munching on a bag of chips, nodded after taking a sip of coffee: “Yeah.”

“To be precise, not just our department, but other departments do the same.”

“At most, people who are closer might call someone ‘Brother X’ or ‘Sister X’ or something like that.”

“The safest is to call people by their names. No one will find it strange. It would be stranger to call them by their titles.”

Wu Bin was very surprised: “Really? Why is that?”

The guy, munching on chips, shook his head: “I don’t know either. I’m not one of Tenda’s first batch of employees; I’ve only been here for three or four months. By that time, this work atmosphere was already established.”

“Oh, by the way, if you want snacks, just go get them yourself. There’s no limit.”

The guy didn’t forget to wave the chips in his hand at Wu Bin, telling him these things were free to eat.

Wu Bin smelled the aroma of the chips, which was quite nice, but thinking that this was only his first day at work and he wasn’t yet a permanent employee, such behavior seemed a bit inappropriate, so he shook his head: “It’s fine, I’m not hungry.”

The guy next to him suddenly thought of another issue: “Oh, right, the only exception is Mr. Pei.”

“Out of respect, people generally don’t directly call him by his name.”

“Of course, Mr. Pei is very easygoing, and he probably wouldn’t get angry if you called him by his name.”

“It’s just that everyone genuinely respects him, so that’s why they address him that way. This is the only exception in the entire company.”

“In short, except for Mr. Pei, you can call anyone by their name without any problem.”

Wu Bin nodded silently, realizing that he needed to learn these nuances from the older employees.

The two chatted briefly and introduced themselves to each other.

Wu Bin also asked a few questions about daily work, such as… whether the content written in the employee handbook was true.

The guy next to him thought for a moment and said, “It’s not entirely true.”

Wu Bin nodded, understanding in his heart.

Indeed, most companies, when introducing themselves, more or less hide their shortcomings and exaggerate their strengths.

Of course, this couldn’t be said to be wrong, only human nature.

The guy next to him continued: “I see that a lot of things aren’t written in this handbook.”

“What about the best employee selection twice a year? What about the first prize of a 1 million dream fund, and the second prize of a paid vacation?”

“What about the regular physical examinations and the reimbursement of medical expenses?”

“And also…”

The guy recounted going through all of Tenda’s other benefits one by one.

As he spoke, he missed some, and only after checking did he finally complete the list.

There was no way around it; there were too many benefits to remember clearly.

Wu Bin: “…”

He had thought that this guy was going to reveal some insider information not written in the new employee handbook, such as severe overtime at the company or occasional wage deductions.

But he had completely misunderstood!

It turned out that what was written in the handbook wasn’t even all the employee benefits; there were many other benefits that couldn’t fit due to page limitations…

Wu Bin was completely speechless, almost thinking he had been deceived and had mistakenly entered a fraudulent company.

Such good benefits, are you kidding me?!

But Tenda’s reputation preceded it, and the iron-clad reality was right before his eyes. He had to believe it, whether he wanted to or not!

After calming himself down, Wu Bin asked: “Brother, do you know what kind of content the Tenda Spirit Compatibility Test mainly tests?”

The guy next to him threw the empty chip bag into the trash can and shook his head: “Not sure.”

“This test is being conducted for the first time since your batch entered; I haven’t taken it before.”

“As for this, the confidentiality work is very well done. I only vaguely know a little bit of information.”

“All the questions for this test were created by Mr. Pei, and no one except Mr. Pei has the authority to modify them.”

“Don’t worry, I don’t think it will be very difficult. It should be like those psychological health tests some schools conduct, just a formality.”

“As long as no major issues are detected, passing should be a piece of cake.”

Hearing this, Wu Bin breathed a slight sigh of relief.

As long as it wasn’t difficult, that was good!

Alright, then let’s start working with full anticipation!

Wu Bin got up and went to Hao Yun, hoping she would assign him some work.

Hao Yun looked up: “Work?”

“Uh… work cannot be assigned during the probation period.”

“Moreover, we have enough manpower now. Your task during this period is to observe and learn more, striving to pass the Tenda Spirit Compatibility Test in one go, so you can become a permanent employee sooner.”

Wu Bin returned to his seat, completely confused.

It was the first time he had encountered a situation where he actively sought work, but there was no work to do…

…

…

In the office.

“Mr. Pei, here’s the company’s annual meeting plan prepared by the administrative group for your review.”

Pei Qian took a document from Assistant Xin’s hand and casually flipped through it.

The content was quite rich.

At the forefront were the expenses for the annual meeting and the arrangements for various prizes.

Sunshine Award: 1,000 yuan red envelope * 1,000.

799 yuan earphones * 300.

899 yuan mechanical keyboards * 300.

500-1,000 yuan random red envelopes * 200.

1,299 yuan air purifiers * 200.

2,199 yuan robot vacuums and vacuum cleaners * 70 each.

3,599 yuan gaming consoles * 80.

4,599 yuan tablet computers Pro * 80.

5,699 yuan Pineapple and Shenhua flagship phones * 40 each.

5,999 yuan TVs * 70.

11,999 yuan digital cameras * 20.

18,888 yuan cash gift packages * 10.

Double five-day trip to any city in the world * 3 (including first-class air tickets, five-star hotel luxury accommodation, and an additional consumption allowance of 30,000).

These prizes, estimated in total value, already amount to more than 4 million yuan.

This was already the highest amount allowed by the system.

Nearly a thousand employees would participate in the annual meeting, of course, a large part of them were couriers from Headwind Logistics.

Although the couriers were physical laborers, Pei Qian certainly wouldn’t discriminate against them because of this. These people were also Tenda’s employees, diligently delivering goods, and of course, they should also participate in this special occasion of the annual meeting.

Pei Qian had originally wanted to arrange a more generous Sunshine Award, such as a flagship phone for each person, but with the total value of all prizes for the entire annual meeting already determined, there would be fewer other prizes to arrange.

The lucky draw session wouldn’t be as exciting.

So, the Sunshine Award was just a 1,000 yuan red envelope.

However, considering that most prizes were prepared in quantities of two or three hundred, excluding the 1,000 yuan red envelopes for the Sunshine Award, the total number of prizes had already reached 1,483.

Moreover, the on-site lucky draw program had been set with restrictions: each person wouldn’t win the same prize twice, and could win at most twice.

People who hadn’t won a prize would have an increasingly higher chance of winning as the drawing progressed.

In other words, even people with the worst luck would probably be able to draw a prize, avoiding situations where some people won numerous prizes while others received nothing.

Pei Qian was quite satisfied with these prizes and continued reading.

Next were the specific activity arrangements for the annual meeting, including on-site performances and food arrangements.

Regarding food, chefs from Mingcloud Private Kitchen and Slackin’ Takeout would prepare food on-site at the annual meeting hotel. Ingredients would be purchased in advance, and the menu would all be arranged by Lin Canrong.

In short, there was no need to worry about the food.

Pei Qian was concerned about the specific activity arrangements for the annual meeting.

The annual meeting arrangements for most companies now could be described in one word: awkward!

Some forced male employees to wear ballet costumes and dance Swan Lake, some awkwardly danced to internet viral songs, and various low-brow game sessions pushed the limits…

In short, having employees go on stage to perform was already considered quite humane, but it was still awkward.

It was hard to tell whether this was a distortion of human nature or a moral decline.

The annual meeting activity arrangements prepared by Assistant Xin didn’t make these mistakes and looked quite good overall.

There were no excessive demands like asking all those in charge to dress up as women and perform on stage together.

Pei Qian was very satisfied with this. As the saying goes, sparing others is sparing yourself. He didn’t want to dress up in strange costumes and act like a clown on stage.

In this annual meeting arrangement, some professionals were invited to perform on stage—singing, dancing, acrobatics, and the like. Besides this, some interesting small games were also prepared.

Of course, whether inviting people to perform or having employees play small games, extra budget was prepared, as prizes would need to be provided for employees playing small games.

After looking for a while, Pei Qian still felt it wasn’t interesting enough.

Singing, dancing, and performing weren’t bad, but what was there to watch?

Let alone annual meetings, how many people still enjoyed watching song and dance performances at those evening parties?

Having employees go on stage to play small games was much better than those low-brow games, but it was still awkward.

After all, people weren’t there to play these games; they were there for the prizes.

Since the employees’ purpose was to win prizes and Mr. Pei’s purpose was to give out prizes, why not skip these embarrassing sessions?

Pei Qian thought for a moment and said, “Get rid of all these performances and on-site small games.”

“Arrange gacha machines and claw machines on-site, and set up activities similar to ring toss, dart throwing, or shooting galleries.”

“At that time, the entire venue will be surrounded by these entertainment facilities, filled with gachas, plush toys, and various figurines.”

“When everyone enters, give them a bunch of tokens, allowing them to play as much as they want.”

“Oh, and for those tricky machines like claw machines, adjust the probability to the highest.”

“When everyone comes to the annual meeting, there will be two things to do. Eat and play!”

Prize drawings throughout the event. When everyone is full, they can take tokens to play gacha, grab toys, and continue until all prizes are drawn, everyone is well-fed, and all tokens are spent. Then the annual meeting officially ends.”

“At Tenda, we don’t engage in formalism, we don’t hype things up, and we won’t make anyone go on stage to make a fool of themselves.”

“Eating, drinking, and having fun—that’s the theme of our annual meeting!”
