Chapter 220 Charitable Programs

Early the next morning, after Lin Cheng personally drove Xiao Xixi to kindergarten, he had been thinking about one thing, it was time for the Lin Group to do charity.

Regarding charity, there are too many cats in the mainland, Lin Cheng can't think of any entrepreneur who has done a better job, even if Wang Wanda, who donated the most in later generations, his donation funds are only 3 billion, which is a drop in the bucket compared to his net worth of more than 100 billion, which is far from the foreign rich who often donate most of their net worth to charity.

Of course, there are also reasons for this to differ from country to country. In foreign countries, entrepreneurs can reduce or exempt taxes for charitable enterprises; in China, in addition to having a better reputation, the government does not seem to have too many preferential policies for donor enterprises, and if the supervision of charitable funds is not in place, maybe they will be involved in trouble such as fraudulent donations.

It is difficult to do charity in China, but it is Uncle Shao Liu and Gu Lotian in the Xiangjiang entertainment circle who left a deep impression on Lin Cheng.

Uncle Shao Liu's ranking among the richest people in Xiangjiang is not high, that is, he is worth more than 10 billion Hong Kong dollars. However, in 2014, when Uncle Shao Liushu died, some media counted the number of teaching buildings donated by Uncle Shao Liu, and there were as many as 30,000 of them.

Uncle Shao not only donated teaching buildings from various famous universities in China, but also in poor areas such as the southwest and northwest.

In Lin Cheng's view, Uncle Shao Liu could live to be 107 years old before he died, and the Sixth Uncle Teaching Building he donated to build was a great contribution, a full 30,000 teaching buildings, how many yin virtues have been accumulated for Uncle Shao Liu?!

Compared with the sixth uncle's wealth, charity, and the name and accumulation of yin virtue, Gu Lotian, who established 95 charity schools in nine years of low-key charity, has a purer purpose.

And Gu Lotian does charity never icing on the cake, but sending charcoal in the snow.

For example, most of the teaching buildings donated by Uncle Shao Liu are university teaching buildings donated in the developed areas of eastern China, while the schools donated by Gu Lotian are all located in the poorest western region of China.

Because most of the schools he donated to build are located in poor areas, these areas are poor and backward, and the media industry is very underdeveloped, many students who study Gu Lotian Charity School even think that Gu Lotian is an old man in his seventies and eighties, and they don't know that he is a big star in Xiangjiang.

It wasn't until the paper couldn't hold the fire and Gu Lotian's low-key charity was exposed by the media that people knew that there was a star in Xiangjiang who did good deeds and never publicized it, and silently did charity for nine years, donating an average of more than ten schools every year.

Uncle Shao and Gu Lotian gave Lin Cheng a good inspiration for their philanthropy, and he decided not to donate the money directly to charities in China, but to set up a charity division within the Lin Group to establish charity schools in poor areas in China.

If it weren't for the death of Uncle Shao in 2014, some media and netizens counted that there were as many as 30,000 Uncle Shao Towers, who knew that Uncle Shao would have done such a big thing quietly!

Gu Lotian is the same, he donated to build nearly 100 charity schools and never publicized it, if it wasn't for the media to find out, netizens would not know that there are such kind stars in China.

If it weren't for the exposure of Gu Letian's low-key donation to build a charity school, based on the dozens of bad movies he starred in in recent years, netizens would have been spraying Gu Lotian a long time ago.

Like later, even if the people knew that the movie starring Gu Lotian must be a bad movie, they would rush to Gu Letian's reputation for actively doing charity, and they would go to the cinema to support Gu Zai's charity.

Of course, the smartest thing about Uncle Shao and Gu Letian doing charity is that they have learned from Comrade Lei Feng, Comrade Lei Feng has the habit of recording good deeds in his diary, and Uncle Shao Liu and Gu Lotian donating to build a teaching building also have the habit of naming the teaching building after themselves, so they are also famous for charity.

Therefore, Lin Cheng plans to learn from Uncle Shao Liu and Gu Letian, donate to build charity schools and teaching buildings, do not issue news releases, do not make trouble, and donate low-key until the news media and the people themselves find that there are Lin Cheng Charity Primary Schools and Lin Cheng Teaching Buildings everywhere to become famous in one fell swoop, which is simply the most deadly example of invisible pretending in online articles.

Lin Cheng is familiar with the history of later generations, knowing that in 2008 Sichuan Province will be the 512th earthquake that shocked the world, so Lin Cheng plans to donate most of the teaching buildings will be inclined to Sichuan Province, especially in the earthquake-stricken areas, Lin Cheng will build high-quality teaching buildings in every village and town in the disaster area, so that these teaching buildings become a refuge in the event of an earthquake.

Think about it, if the May 12 earthquake broke out, all the teaching buildings donated by Lin Cheng stood in the disaster area, and none of the teaching buildings collapsed, how much yin virtue and reputation could be accumulated for Lin Cheng!

Then the media will automatically and spontaneously count the teaching buildings donated by Lin Cheng like the death of Uncle Shao Liu, and then they will find that the teaching buildings donated by Lin Cheng will exceed tens of thousands, covering the east, west, north and south of the motherland.

And after netizens and keyboard warriors know the news, they will definitely worship Lin Cheng as the god of charity, and those students who have benefited from Lin Cheng Charity School and Lin Cheng Teaching Building, when they graduate from school, how can they not be grateful to Lin Cheng?

And the most important thing is that the teaching building donated by Lin Cheng has survived countless lives in the earthquake and made great contributions to the motherland, then Lin Cheng will undoubtedly be favored by the government.

Of course, in addition to donating to build charity schools and teaching buildings, Lin Cheng's intention to do charity was actually influenced by Xiao Xixi's bumpy life.

Although Xiao Xixi lives in the city, her experience is similar to that of thousands of left-behind children in the mainland, whose parents neglect their growth and neglect to take care of them because they work to earn money, making them victims of China's rapid economic development.

According to authoritative statistics, there are as many as 58 million left-behind children in China, and in the process of growing up, due to the lack of parental guidance, education and emotional companionship, they have gradually become a vulnerable group.

As far as the people around Lin Cheng are concerned, although Lianjiang where he is located is not a poor area, most of the young and middle-aged people in Lianjiang go to the big cities to work, and the rest of the village are either old people or children, and the social development is extremely deformed.

And Lin Cheng has seen tragedies that happened to left-behind children on the Internet, such as the elderly are not effective with children, children fall into a pot of boiling water and scald to death, children fall into a pond and drown, or are bitten to death by stray dogs.

Now that Lin Cheng is rich and capable, he doesn't want these tragedies to happen again in the motherland, he wants to establish a charity that cares for left-behind children, and escorts the healthy growth of left-behind children.
