The reason why Zhang Chen agreed to donate 1.8 million Hong Kong dollars to Li Entai to the Li Chaoren Foundation was not because he had no place to spend the money, nor because he wanted to reconcile with the Li Chaoren family, but because he thought of a very cost-effective donation program, the Changjiang Scholars Award Program.

Although the Changjiang Scholars Award Program cannot be called known to women and children in later generations, anyone who has a little understanding of scientific research and scholarship can say a thing or two, and the Li Chaoren Foundation, which donated to this award program, has gained both fame and fortune.

In the early days, the Changjiang Scholars Program provided a good material guarantee for scientists, attracted a large number of overseas scholars to return to China, and made great contributions to China's scientific research. In the later period, although this money is no longer in the eyes of scientific researchers, it has become a huge honor in the academic world, second only to the honor of academicians of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the Chinese Academy of Sciences. The experts and scholars who can be awarded the title of Changjiang Scholars are all leaders and researchers with great potential in their respective fields.

In the first 10 years of the Yangtze River Scholars Program, Li Chaoren donated a total of 130 million yuan, an average of 13 million yuan per year.

The current Golden Shield Fund of Aliens will not donate less than five million this year, and the donation amount will be even higher next year, and it is only a little sound in the political and legal system. But Li Chaoren, who is a person, used 13 million to make the top scholars in China red-eyed, and even more up to heaven, and the benefits were greatly dropped. I have to say that ginger is still old and spicy.

But now, it seems that this Changjiang Scholars award program has not yet appeared, and it should be that Li Chaoren has not yet made this proposal to Kyoto.

In his previous life, when Zhang Chen worked for a few years and wanted to study as a graduate student, he once asked a friend to help introduce a mentor, who was a member of the Changjiang Scholars. In addition, the relationship between the introduced friend and this mentor is also average, Zhang Chen failed to let this Changjiang scholar be selected, and he was depressed for a long time.

But now, if I put forward this plan first, and it is recognized by Kyoto, then my own award plan may replace the yet-to-be-born Changjiang Scholars Award Program and become the most awesome academic evaluation event in China every year in addition to the selection of academicians of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the Chinese Academy of Sciences!

The benefits speak for themselves.

What's the name of this program? Tinder Source Scholar Award Program? No, it's not easy to say. And I don't want the umbrella company of Tinder Source to be known to the public, so what is it called?

Didn't you register a Spark Technology in Xiangjiang, it is better to let Spark Technology come forward and set up a Spark Foundation, and the name of this program is called the Spark Scholar Award Program!

A spark can start a prairie fire. These Spark Scholars assessed every year are all sparks in the academic field, and maybe one day, they can become a raging fire that can burn the sky!

For the country, for the people, for oneself, good is great.

Thinking of this, Zhang Chen couldn't help but show a smile on his face.

Li Entai looked at Zhang Chen strangely, not understanding what he was laughing at, but he thought that since Zhang Chen had agreed to participate in Li Chaoren's charity dinner and promised to donate a large sum of money, he naturally received a signal of his favor, and the topic between the two could be discussed in more depth.

"By the way, what you told me last time, I talked to my father, and he didn't say anything about this plan, you can help me think about it, what else did we not consider?" Li Entai took out another Latour from the ice bucket, and Zhang Chen took it and looked at it: "75-year-old Latour? ”

Zhang Chen beckoned, Zhang Chen's personal bodyguard today Rafs took out a bottle of red wine from the suitcase, and Li Entai's eyes lit up: "Kandi?"

The waiter uncorked the bottle with a bottle opener, wiped the bottle mouth with a towel cloth, held the cushion cloth of the wine bottle in his hand, rushed the wine label, and poured a glass for Zhang Chen first.

Zhang Chen shook the crystal cup, smelled the wine, raised the glass and tasted it, and signaled to the waiter, who poured another glass for Li Entai.

Li Entai also tasted it, "Good wine, although the 77-year-old Kandi is still a little young, it has entered the drinking period, and there is really no need to sober up." I didn't expect you to like what's in the cup. ”

Zhang Chen smiled: "I just like to try, frankly speaking, I don't understand red wine, but since Kandi is the most expensive, I have to try it anyway." In this regard, Brother Ling seems to have something in common with me. ”

Li Entai snorted, and there was no expression on his face: "It's a good thing to be curious, and it's hard to be curious, but it's even more difficult to restrain your curiosity." ”

Zhang Chen smiled: "What is Ling Zun's attitude?"

Li Entai's distressed expression flashed: "I can see that my father is interested in the Cyberport project, but when I proposed that the Yangtze River Construction should submit the plan to the Hong Kong government, he was a little noncommittal and suppressed the plan. ”

Zhang Chen thought for a while: "The Cyberport project is expensive, does Ling Zun feel that it is too risky?"

Li Entai shook his head and denied: "No, according to this plan, although the initial investment is large, it will be very helpful to improve the stock price of Yangtze River Construction, and it will not bring too serious financial pressure to the Yangtze River." ”

Zhang Chen frowned slightly: "Does he still want Brother Ling to lead this plan?"

Li Entai said with annoyance: "I also doubt that there is a possibility, but the strength and experience of the Yangtze River are much stronger than Yingke, and such a large-scale plan, not led by the Yangtze River, is more risky, and in terms of my father's character, it seems too abnormal." ”

Zhang Chen pinched the cup holder and shook it, and a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in his mind, "Li Sheng, take the liberty of asking, Ling Zun seems to have been very close to a lady surnamed Zou recently?"

Li Entai was slightly embarrassed: "It's all scribbled by unscrupulous media, Sister Zou only cooperated with her father on the Oriental Plaza project in Kyoto last year, plus she lived relatively close, so it was spread by the outside world." ”

Zhang Chen waved his hand: "Li Sheng, don't be surprised, I just suddenly remembered this matter, maybe Ling Zun is indecided, and it has something to do with this Miss Zou." Although the rumors from the outside world are not credible, it should be true that Ling Zun admires Miss Zou's talent. I think that whether she played a role in it or not, you should pull her to do it together, after all, harmony makes money, I think, this is what Ling Zun wants to see. At worst, you can also find out from Miss Zou why Ling Zun's attitude is so ambiguous. ”

Li Entai was embarrassed and unwilling in his heart, he naturally knew better than anyone else about the matter between Li Chaoren and Zou Kaixuan. Like Lee Eun-mo, he has a very close relationship with his mother, who has been dead for a few years, but his mind is more calm, more tolerant, and his joy and anger are invisible.

But in his heart, he very much disagrees with the relationship between Li Chaoren and Zou Kaixuan, and even feels that his father is sorry for his deceased mother.

But he is not Li Enmo after all, he can quarrel with Li Chaoren for personal likes and dislikes, he thinks that if he wants to achieve great things, the first point is to be able to endure it.

Therefore, Li Entai exhaled lightly, "Zack, your suggestion is very good, I will contact Sister Zou and listen to her opinion." ”

Zhang Chen raised his glass and said with a smile: "Put out the fire in your heart, light the Buddha's headlamp, and after his day, Brother Li's achievements will be no less than Ling Zun." ”
