Chapter 86 Your Plan Is Not Bold Enough
Chen Mo thought for a while and suddenly remembered a sporting event.
Race walking.
This event is great; you just need to walk, and it doesn't require much physical strength.
As for the distance, the shorter, the better, of course.
So, it will be a 50-meter race walk.
He just needs to symbolically walk two steps, and two rewards will be easily his.
Chen Mo smiled faintly; this was his first time milking the system.
It was truly a good omen; with this success, he felt that the 8 million yuan was already beckoning to him.
…………
The next morning,
Chen Mo stood at the workshop entrance, watching the employees' morning run.
"Li Shen, what lap is this?"
Wang Maonian asked with difficulty, panting heavily.
"The 11th lap."
"Ah! Only 11 laps? I'm going to die, I'm going to die."
Despair filled Wang Maonian's eyes; with 4 more laps, how could he finish?
Chen Mo looked at Wang Maonian's disheveled appearance and finally felt relieved.
Still thinking about making bento boxes? I'll run you ragged.
After the morning run,
Chen Mo returned to his office, just thinking about what to do, when Shen Rou walked over.
"Mr. Chen, this is the sports day proposal; it has been prepared according to your requirements."
"Let me see."
Chen Mo was surprised, not expecting that what he had assigned yesterday would be completed today.
He took the proposal and opened it to read.
Then, he frowned.
Seeing this, Shen Rou asked somewhat nervously.
"Mr. Chen, is there a problem?"
"Yes, a big problem."
Chen Mo looked up at Shen Rou and said seriously.
Upon hearing this, Shen Rou quickly spoke.
"Then I'll go and make a new one right away."
"Wait a moment."
Chen Mo quickly stopped Shen Rou, who was about to return to her desk to redo the proposal.
Actually, Shen Rou's proposal would have been fine if viewed normally, but for him, it was a big problem.
Shen Rou's entire proposal revealed these four words:
Economical and practical!
How could this be? His gifts alone cost over 760,000 yuan, so the plan for this event needed at least 200,000 yuan in expenditure to meet his expectations.
However, Shen Rou's proposal only spent a little over 50,000 yuan.
Such a cheap plan was definitely not acceptable.
"Your plan isn't bold enough; it's too conservative."
"Conservative?"
Shen Rou looked at Mr. Chen with confusion, not understanding what 'conservative' meant.
Chen Mo looked at Shen Rou's puzzled expression, then opened the proposal and began to speak.
"Look at this stadium you're renting; it's only two thousand yuan a day, and I estimate the facilities inside aren't complete, so it's definitely not acceptable."
"Mr. Chen, I went to see this stadium after work last night, and both the venue size and the facilities are completely sufficient for the company's sports day."
When Shen Rou heard Chen Mo say 'conservative' because he was worried about the venue not being good, she immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
Last night,
She had visited several stadiums consecutively; there were better ones than this, but in terms of cost-effectiveness, this one was just right.
"Just being 'sufficient' is not enough at all. Plans can't keep up with changes; what if there are any modifications later, and it's not enough? So, we must make ample preparations."
"I remember there's a famous stadium in Jiang City called Yunfan Stadium; go and see how much it costs."
"Mr. Chen, Yunfan Stadium costs 50,000 yuan a day."
Shen Rou spoke carefully. She also knew about this stadium and had looked into it. Both its facilities and size were top-notch. Its service was also very comprehensive.
But after learning the price, she gave up on it.
It was too expensive.
"That's the one."
As soon as Chen Mo heard it was 50,000 yuan, he immediately decided on it without thinking.
Did this kind of expenditure meet his expectations?
"Ah!"
Shen Rou was momentarily stunned; Mr. Chen had just decided, and that was 50,000 yuan!
Chen Mo ignored Shen Rou's surprised expression and continued to speak.
"The stadium is settled then. Next is the food and drink for the sports event. Water and beverages must be prepared in abundance, and lunch must be ordered from a well-known restaurant to prevent employees from getting sick."
"Once food and drink are sorted, the rest is staffing. With so many of us holding a sports day, we're bound to create a lot of garbage, and if we clean it up ourselves, we definitely won't have time."
"So, we need to hire some temporary workers to constantly clean the sports hall."
"Mr. Chen, usually, sports halls have cleaners responsible for cleaning."
When Shen Rou heard that Mr. Chen wanted to hire cleaners, she quickly spoke, as this money was unnecessary.
Chen Mo's expression paused, he looked at Shen Rou seriously, and then exhaled, saying,
"You have to consider that we're having a sports day with over 80 people. The stadium's cleaners might not be able to handle it. We're hiring cleaners not for others, but for ourselves, to have a clean and tidy competition environment."
Upon hearing Chen Mo's lecture, Shen Rou lowered her head in shame. So, Mr. Chen had thought so thoroughly. Shen Rou, you still need to work harder!
She secretly encouraged herself.
Chen Mo saw that Shen Rou no longer argued and nodded in satisfaction; an obedient assistant was a good assistant.
He continued to speak.
"We have cleaners, and we also need some security guards to maintain order. After all, when we hold a sports day, it's inevitable that people will come to watch the excitement, so we need someone to maintain order."
"Also, the sports day host and the referees for the competition events. If our company's employees do these, it will seem unprofessional. Since we are holding a sports day, it should naturally be more professional; only then can we experience the fun of competition."
"Finally, for recording the event, we need to hire several professional photographers to comprehensively photograph our sports day from beginning to end. After all, this is considered our company's first formal event, so we naturally want to create some mementos. We can then make a commemorative film and distribute it to every employee."
"Also, these banners and slogans you designed, like 'Work together to create brilliance,' and 'Achieve great ambitions, grow bigger and stronger,' are too official and not very good. Change them to… never mind, I'll write them down for you later."
"That's pretty much it. In total, you have a budget of 220,000 yuan. As long as you spend all of this 220,000 yuan, it will be a qualified plan."
"Alright, that's all. Take it back and revise it."
Chen Mo said, placing the proposal in Shen Rou's hand.
Shen Rou looked at the proposal in her hand and then thought about what Mr. Chen had just said—that spending all 220,000 yuan would make it a qualified plan. She was a little dazed.
That was 220,000 yuan!
Mr. Chen was truly willing to spend money on his employees!
Returning to her desk, she began to rewrite the proposal according to Mr. Chen's requirements. The recruitment of the host, referees, and other personnel would require going out to negotiate.
However, the procurement of items like water and beverages could be handled by Li Shen.
Not long after,
Mr. Chen sent over the revised banners and slogans.
Shen Rou curiously looked over, wanting to know what good slogans Mr. Chen had come up with.
But when she clearly saw the content, she was completely stunned.
