Chapter 442: Help

Look at the Chinese community in the United States, especially those who are in politics, they are generally excluded and suppressed.

Over time, some people figured out a truth, it is no longer possible to unite and learn from blacks to exert pressure on the government, so they put aside their Chinese compatriots, in addition to their appearance, let themselves completely become "white", take a white wife, or find a white husband, integrate into their circle, and make themselves more acceptable.

Rich Chinese always can't wait to move away from the old Chinatown and live in a comfortable and clean new community, and the Su family is no exception.

The dirty, dilapidated slums don't keep people, and even the occasional high-income people, such as lawyers, dentists, and businessmen, soon buy or rent houses elsewhere and leave with their families.

The Chinese who cannot afford to leave will only envy, the elders expect their children to be productive, and the children complain that their parents are incompetent, and every family is working hard to make ends meet, and a single illness may empty their pitiful wealth accumulated for decades.

Recently, Su Mu often misses that time, and after realizing it, he found that the little things that he originally felt were inconspicuous, full of the short human touch of the parents, and now he is rich, but he is not as happy as he was a child, in fact, it is not bad now, but he always feels that something is missing, and his life is not so fulfilling, maybe because he has grown up.

Su Mu fulfilled his promise to help Mr. Bill Clinton win the presidency, and soon after there was an additional Chinese senator from California, named Shen Mao, who rose like a rocket and became the top of California politics.

What was given to him can naturally be taken away, last year Shen Mao just became a senator, Su Mu asked him out for a meal, the focus of the discussion is how to help the Chinese in California get a fair status, here mainly refers to equality in education, medical care, work, social welfare and other aspects.

Unlike other Chinese officials, who need to cater to their bosses and prove that they are different from the Chinese they remember, Mr. Shen Mao is different in that he has the "big rich man" Su Mu behind to help support him, and he has really helped the Chinese people in California to do a lot since he joined the company.

The most intuitive point is that the original Chinese would be fired for various reasons at every turn, and then he privately advanced money to hire a lawyer to help sue the original boss and obtain a large amount of compensation.

Su Mu also doesn't need to cater to who to please, recently the Congress negotiated a so-called "educational equality" bill, the content is mainly to force some universities to admit "students of other races", here mainly refers to blacks, and under the condition that the total number of admissions remains unchanged, it is bound to seize the admission quota of Chinese students who are about to be admitted to universities with real materials.

His alma mater, Yale University, was the first to respond, and the unequal bill was successfully aborted.

When he was young, he only took care of himself, and after he succeeded, he began to take care of others, and he was not soft on some bad social phenomena, thanks to the large number of people who followed him on the Internet, which often had a good effect.

A recent survey shows that the younger generation of parents most want their children to take Su Mu as an idol, and those parents who are in their last twenties and thirties, especially those who are the same age as Su Mu, have been abused by him all the way, and people can really be angry compared to people, I have to say that I admire them......

He had enough money in his hands, so he recently came up with the idea of helping the residents of Los Angeles' Chinatown.

A few years ago, he had pushed the opening of a few labor-intensive factories near Chinatown to grow his business with cheap local labor, albeit at a lower wage, than having nothing to do at home and no money to spend, and a job, at least health insurance and unemployment benefits, could be obtained at a low cost.

The original Chinese Guild was like a joke, and Su Mu arranged for someone to start a new one and drum up a California Chinese Guild, which was mainly responsible for helping a large number of Chinese in Los Angeles and San Francisco.

His personal ability is limited, and he is powerless to help more, doing this kind of good deed belongs to the responsibility that Su Mu thinks he should bear, and it is not an obligation to be absolutely responsible, he can only say that he will do his best.

Whitney was there at this time, and he asked tentatively: "If, I mean, if you build a commercial district with Chinese characteristics in Chinatown, surrounded by low-rent apartments and factories, do you think there is a market prospect?"

Whitney paused for a moment, pondering the question, and asked rhetorically, "That Chinatown near Castellar Public High School?"

"yes, you've been, right? ”

"That's true, my house is not far from it, only two blocks away, I don't know if there is a commercial prospect, the population of that area is not very large, if it is only small, there should be people to go. ”

Su Mu smiled and shook his head: "I didn't plan to make it big, I went back at the end of last year, and the population suddenly increased a lot, in recent years, nearly 100,000 Chinese residents have chosen to immigrate to the United States, if I spend about 1.5 billion US dollars, what do you think can be transformed into it? It is too dilapidated, there is a lack of planning, maybe to help renovate the building, they will also be willing to pay some money." ”

Whitney guessed that Su Mu wanted to help his compatriots, otherwise where could he not invest, and he would have to invest there?

She visited Chinatown as a child, and she remembers that it was full of chaos, a large population, very dilapidated buildings, and Los Angeles' Chinatown was an area, not just a street.

Kindly persuaded Su Mu: "You don't need to do this at all, the city hall is planning over there, and the road and sidewalk have become more beautiful after the renovation." As long as they are willing to work hard, they will get a better life, if they don't work hard, even if you help, it is useless, if you really want to do something, build nursing homes, invest in schools, it will be more useful. ”

Su Mu felt that this was reasonable, it was the elderly and children who really deserved help, the adults had hands and feet, and it seemed that it was not his turn to worry about their lives, just casually asked, the vast majority of the old Chinese worked hard, and life was okay, and there were many families who had saved money, so the development plan was temporarily shelved.

Decisively said: "Then if you have time in the future, please help me design a large-scale nursing home, a public welfare and charitable nursing home, and I will look at the rest ......."
