At the same time, she also announced that she would "give employees an extra 200 million yuan for the year-end bonus".

However, while Gree Electric’s heroic 200 million year-end bonus has aroused widespread concern, there are also questions about this year-end bonus on the Internet.

Moreover, these G3 mobile phones "can’t be sold at the price of idle fish only around 300 yuan, but the company has issued 80,000 sets at a price of 3,599 yuan".

For these rumors, Gree Electric insiders told the media: "The fake, extra 200 million bonus is not deducted by G3 mobile phone, but a real year-end bonus."

Regarding the rumor that "Gree’s year-end award is deducted with points", Gree also said that "the year-end award is not issued in the form of points".

The employee of Gree Electric’s subsidiary got a year-end bonus of 4,500 yuan in cash, and also exchanged the points for products such as rice cookers, health pots and electric fans, with a value of about 4,000 yuan.

At the same time, Dong Mingzhu also expressed the hope that the tax revenue for the country will exceed 20 billion in 2024.
