Chapter 285

  In a hall in the cabin, there are hydrogen balloons, ribbons, Christmas trees, and various holiday decorations.

  More than 100 Facebook employees, except for a small number of left-behind companies on duty, the rest are almost there.

  The company’s New Year party invites not only employees, but employees can also bring their families and have fun together.

  Men dressed in suits, women in dresses, holding red wine glasses, talking about 30-50%**, and the scene was very lively.

  American companies also have annual meetings, which usually open before Christmas.

   Facebook postponed the annual meeting because it wanted to hold a video blogger contest.

  The annual meeting of American companies is generally very simple. There is no summary meeting, aspiration meeting, or celebration party. It is an annual carnival, or a Christmas party.

  There are also show performances, but generally there is no rehearsal, all are improvisational performances.

  And it’s not a round-table dinner party. Everyone is standing with their glasses. It’s a traditional cocktail party.

  Large companies, those with thousands of people or more, because they can’t find a suitable hotel to hold the annual meeting, they will directly ask each department to find a hotel to hold the annual meeting and spread them out.

  As for looking for a stadium for the annual meeting, Americans do not agree.

  Because in their opinion, the theme of the annual meeting is mainly to play.

   Facebook is currently small, and it has directly chartered a small cruise ship, ready to go to sea for annual meetings, and then drive back to San Francisco the next day.

  Xia Jingxing and Andrew walked into the hall and suddenly felt much warmer.

   Seeing a few shareholders come in, everyone gave way.

  Xia Jing walked to the stage, picked up the microphone, and prepared to say a few words.

  The annual meeting of the American company still has a leader's speech, but it is very brief, usually no more than five minutes.

  Xia Jingxing wants to talk, but the music in the hall has not stopped, the music is noisy.

  Who is so ignorant?

  Xia Jingxing frowned, where is the sound engineer?

  In the corner, a Santa Claus wearing headphones is cheering, dancing with his hands and feet, immersed in his own music world, unable to extricate himself.

  Seeing this scene, many employees laughed out loud.

  Xia Jing walked over, and found that it was the little dog who was there to entertain himself.

  He quickly took off the earphones to the dog, and ordered the latter to turn off the music.

  The sound of music finally stopped and the scene became quiet.

  Xia Jing walked to the simple stage and took the microphone and said, “In the past year, the number of users of Facebook and YouTube both exceeded 30 million. I hope that this year we will achieve the goal of 100 million users;

  Facebook and YouTube currently cover three continents, and I hope to complete the task of covering the remaining three continents this year.

   Facebook and YouTube are social and video innovators. I hope the company will always maintain this vitality and innovative spirit..."

  Xia Jingxing used a few parallel sentences to briefly and concisely recount the achievements made in 2004 and the outlook for 2005.

   "Finally, I wish you all a happy new year, eat, drink, and have fun, and the party officially begins!"

  Xia Jingxing gave the little dog a look, and the latter immediately played dynamic music.

  After a while, the light suddenly dimmed.

  Freely assemble pairs of employees and start dancing.

  If there is a female partner, just jump with the female partner.

  If there is no female partner, just two men jumping together.

  Xia Jingxing looked at and shook his head.

  Kristina was wearing a black low-cut dress, revealing a large amount of whiteness and abundance. She appeared in front of Xia Jingxing and handed out a hand to him.

  The two were dancing on the dance floor, and the three of Old John, Breyer, and Andrew were whispering.

  "Daren, I'm afraid it's not in love with Christina, right?"

  Brayer looked at the two affectionate people on the dance floor, frowned and said.

   "Two people are young and not married, what happened to the relationship?"

  Andrew took the red wine and gave Breyer a sideways look.

   "I don't mean anything else. I just want to say that if such a thing really happens, our shareholders should be aware of it."

  Brayer smiled, and then he said nothing, his eyes were so straight at the two people on the dance floor, not knowing what he was thinking.

  Old man John glanced at the two people on the dance floor, pinched his chin, and said with a smile: "Don't say it, I think the possibility is not small.

  Two people are looking forward to being together, and I heard that they still live together. After so many years, it is easy to have a good impression of each other.

  If the two of them want to get married, I think they have to withdraw from one.

  In this way, you can take care of your family and avoid emotional issues that affect the development of the company. "

  Brayer glanced at Old Man John with admiration and nodded, "Mr. Hennessy, my opinion is the same as yours.

  The Bezos and his wife also started together. In the end, his wife returned to the family, and Bezos was in charge of Amazon.

  Amazon is developing very well, and Bezos's family is also well taken care of.

  I heard that the relationship between the two is also very good, and they are well-known Internet model couples.

  In this respect, one person returns to the family, and the other person can spend all his energy at work with peace of mind.

  For enterprises, this is extremely beneficial.

  And if the husband and wife are in charge of the enterprise together, it is difficult to guarantee that there will be no mistakes due to emotional bias in many decisions.

  If both people put their energy into work, there will definitely be problems in the family.

  Also, if there is a disagreement at work, it is very likely to cause a breakdown in the relationship. "

   "Brayer, you are right, and I am worried about this too." Old John smiled slightly.

   Andrew smiled and said, "Don’t you just dance? How do you think so far? This imagination is too rich."

  That being said, Andrew is also carefully watching the two people on the dance floor.

   "Please pay attention, don't look at you randomly, so many colleagues are watching."

  The foreign girl frowned when she saw Xia Jingxing's eyes glance at her chest.

  Xia Jingxing said in her ear: “I’m not to blame, who told you to dress so charming today.”

  The foreign girl looked white at Xia Jingxing, and she was very happy in her heart.

  Women like to praise.

  Since they pierced that layer of window paper in Milan, their feelings quickly warmed up.

  In the rental room, Xia Jingxing often visits the babes’ room.

  This kind of change, of course, can't hide the little dog.

  The little dog feels that he is superfluous, and has been looking at the house recently, preparing to move out.

  The two lingered on the dance floor, thinking that no one would notice.

  But who ever thought that all this fell in the eyes of the three old men.

  Andrew shook his head straight, "I took back the sentence just now."

   "Which one of you is going to talk to Darren? This kind of thing, I must talk to him first."

  Brayer looked at Andrew and Old John.

   "If you want to say it, you go say it, I won't go."

   Andrew’s thinking has a Chinese side. He feels a bit offensive and doesn’t want to take this task.

  The old man, John, did not rush to a conclusion, and said with a faint smile: "Don't worry, go to the dog to find out about the situation, he should know the best."

  The two people beside him nodded, it's better to find out first.
