Chapter 314: Winning the First Prize Again

Arriving downstairs, Yang Dahai was already waiting at the entrance in his car.

"After getting in the car, he headed straight to the stadium where the sports meet was being held."

Such a big event as the sports meet! How could he possibly miss it?

After arriving at the stadium, he quickly found Shen Rou in the stands. After some questioning, he learned that the sports meet had already entered its final event.

Once this event ended, it would be time for the highly anticipated lucky draw segment.

Host Ye Feng saw President Chen arrive. Since he was still hosting the sports meet, he just smiled, nodded, and greeted him.

Soon, the last event concluded.

With the experience of holding the sports meet twice before, this time, after the final event concluded, the rankings were quickly finalized.

"The sports meet has now concluded successfully, and the rankings have been tallied. Next is the highly anticipated lucky draw segment."

The host stood on the podium, speaking earnestly.

However, the first person to draw must naturally be the company president himself to set an example.

Under the gazes of numerous employees, Chen Mo casually reached into the prepared lucky draw box and pulled out a first prize.

"Congratulations to President Chen! Your luck is soaring, winning the first prize again!"

Host Ye Feng held the microphone and shouted loudly.

As for why he said "again," it was because in the previous two times, President Chen had also drawn the first prize.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but sigh inwardly. It was no wonder President Chen could develop a small Garment factory into a Group in such a short time.

This luck alone was something others couldn't compare to.

As for President Chen cheating, he hadn't even considered it. After all, President Chen was the president of a Group; would someone of his status cheat for a first prize?

How could that be possible!

Ye Feng shook his head noncommittally. If President Chen wanted first prizes, he could have as many as he wanted; why would he need to cheat?

The only explanation was that President Chen's luck was simply heaven-defying.

Chen Mo looked at the warm prize ticket in his hand and nodded with satisfaction.

First prize—another 10,000 in personal assets added. At this moment, his personal assets had already reached over 300,000.

After working hard for over half a year, he finally had a decent amount of assets.

300,000 in over half a year; no matter how you calculate it, it was better than working a regular job.

Leaving the podium, the company employees began to go up to the stage to draw prizes in order of their rankings in the sports meet.

Some drew the first prize, while others drew the lowest prize.

But all the employees still wore excited expressions. After all, even the lowest prize, when converted to cash, was worth over 7,000 yuan.

This wasn't payment for work, but a reward given after recreation.

Not having to work, playing in the stadium for a day, and receiving a minimum reward of 7,000 yuan—who wouldn't be happy about that?

This was probably what it meant to earn money while having fun!

Meanwhile, some new employees who had joined the company after the New Year looked at the prize tickets in their hands with expressions of disbelief.

When the news of the sports meet first came out, they had heard the veteran employees talk about how great it was and what kind of benefits it had.

They hadn't taken it too seriously, thinking the veteran employees were exaggerating.

But looking at it now, those veteran employees were right!

The benefits of this sports meet were just that good. They had already made up their minds to work even harder after returning, so as not to lose this job due to negligence.

A job with such good benefits couldn't be found anywhere else.

Chen Mo watched the employees going up to the stage one after another to collect their prizes. Due to the increase in company personnel, the time required for prize collection had also increased significantly.

Therefore, he didn't stay in the stadium long. After watching symbolically for a while, he left the stadium directly.

In any case, his purpose for coming here had already been achieved.

…

"Shen Rou, where is President Chen?"

Zhang Lan found Shen Rou and looked around.

Just when the sports meet was about to end, she had seen President Chen.

However, she had been busy packing up tools with the studio staff at the time. By the time she finished packing the tools and saw those studio people off…

…she intended to come back to thank President Chen in person, but she didn't expect that President Chen had already disappeared.

"President Chen had some matters to attend to and just left."

Shen Rou looked at Zhang Lan, who had hurried over, and explained.

"By the way, I asked a few company employees for their opinions on those two new songs of yours."

"They all thought they sounded great, but they couldn't find the songs on any music software."

"Really?"

Zhang Lan exclaimed in surprise.

"Why would I lie to you about this? If you don't believe me, I can take you to find a few employees and ask them again."

As Shen Rou spoke, she prepared to pull Zhang Lan toward the employees who had already finished drawing their prizes.

"How could that be? I trust you the most."

Zhang Lan grabbed Shen Rou's arm and said with a joyful expression.

If the feedback here was good, she could confidently release the songs on music platforms.

After receiving this good news, she chatted briefly with Shen Rou for a moment longer, then couldn't wait to leave the stadium.

…

[Extreme Survival] offline competition venue.

Du Ziteng and Chen Cong stood on the second-floor viewing platform, looking at the competition venue below, which was almost completely dismantled.

"Have you contacted the stadium?"

Du Ziteng withdrew his gaze and spoke slowly.

Just yesterday, the semi-finals had ended, and the teams that made it to the finals had been determined.

Next was the final round. However, to make the competition seem more formal, they chose to hold this final at Jiangcheng Stadium.

Chen Cong leaned on the railing of the second-floor viewing platform and nodded slightly: "We communicated with them two days ago, and the competition venue over there is already being set up."

As he spoke, he turned to look at Du Ziteng.

"What about the ticket sales? How are they doing?"

"Not bad. Since sales started yesterday, half of the tickets have already been sold."

"That many?"

Hearing Du Ziteng's answer, Chen Cong was a bit surprised.

The [Extreme Survival] competition was very popular on several streaming platforms, but he hadn't expected that selling tickets for the offline competition would be this fast.

This wasn't a celebrity concert, after all!

Seeing the puzzled look in Chen Cong's eyes, Du Ziteng smiled slightly.

"Our cheapest tickets are only 25 each, and the most expensive are only 200 yuan. How could they not sell fast?"

Du Ziteng sighed slightly.

After all, the [Extreme Survival] competition had just begun. If they set very high ticket prices from the start, certainly not many people would buy them.

Therefore, this time, he simply set the ticket prices at a very low level.

After all, his goal wasn't to make money through ticket sales; the main goal this time was to make a name for themselves.

Only if the competition venue was lively enough could this offline competition seem more grand.

Even if some people didn't come to the stadium to watch the competition, during the live broadcast, they would need the director to show scenes of many spectators watching the competition.

This could give the audience in the Livestream room the impression that going to watch the competition offline was a very popular thing to do.

"By the way, I remember that when we chatted with Mingri Group last time, President Chen seemed very interested in the [Extreme Survival] competition. Since this is the final, let's send him an invitation, and while we're at it, arrange the best viewing spot for him."

Du Ziteng suddenly recalled the content of his last conversation with President Chen of Mingri Group.
