The silence is temporary, and what should come will definitely come, in fact, from the moment he decided to donate to Yale, Bian Xuedao was ready to be sprayed. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Because it's so eye-catching!

The time coordinate is located in March 2009, Zhang Lei has not donated, Pan Shiyi has not donated, Chen Tianqiao has not made a donation, and the Chinese who donated a huge amount of money to American universities in front of Bian Xuedao is Yang Zhiyuan, about two years ago, Yang Zhiyuan donated 75 million US dollars to his alma mater, Stanford University.

Although Yang Zhiyuan's donation amount is 5 times that of Bian Xuedao, the problem is that Yang Zhiyuan is an American, has successfully started a business in the United States, and is donating to his alma mater. As for Bian Xuedao, he couldn't fight with Yale, but he suddenly donated 100 million yuan to Yale.

Thereupon......

Almost synchronized with the time difference, 12 hours later, the "tide of saliva" on the domestic Internet surged.

The content of the saliva is exactly the same as what Bian Xuedao expected, and it is generally the same.

――"Why don't you donate to universities in Japan?"

- "Make money at home, but donate it to the United States?"

――"With so much money, why don't you support education in poor and backward areas of the country?"

Half an hour later, the "phlegm" of the saliva on the net began to increase.

- "There are still many children in China who cannot afford to go to school, and there are many people who cannot afford to see a doctor or buy a house. ”

- "What kind of spirit is a guy who didn't go to Yale school and went to Yale to send money?"

――"Bian Xuedao's alma mater is Eastern Sen University, did he donate? How much?"

After another hour, I found that it was super cool to spray rich people on the Internet, and I didn't see any reaction from Youdao Group, so individual keyboard warriors were as excited as if they had taken drugs, as if the 100 million yuan donated to Yale by Bian Xuedao was taken out of their pockets or even snatched away.

- "Bian Xuedao, hypocrite!"

- "Biannan, you have disappointed me too much. ”

- "It's just a profiteer, abandon the powder, abandon the powder!"

- "From today onwards, I want to turn black from pink to black, and learn the Tao to be black for the rest of my life." ”

- "Resist Youdao, donate money wherever you go, let Youdao go to make money." ”

As time went on, individual people became more and more unscrupulous in their use of words.

Seeing that "Keyboard Man" has a tendency to become "Iron Man", rational netizens can't look past it and speak out to refute and ridicule.

- "With all due respect, upstairs is full of brains!"

- "There are those who like to be critical of everything around them, trying to obliterate their essence, in order to boast that they have a unique sense of judgment and high standard of thought and morality, but in fact, such a person is, as Gelius said, 'a kind of madman who loses things entirely by sophistry.'" ”

- "The most incomprehensible type of people are not madmen, but trolls. ”

- "Behind every troll is a sad family that raised the placenta by mistake. ”

……

There is a general code of conduct in the world, that is, most of the people who take the initiative to jump out and sit down to "receive the scolding" are not very good at using their brains, so the trolls immediately jumped out and scolded: "Your family has raised the placenta! Your whole family is a placenta!"

The debate begins.

The Bianbian faction asked: "I didn't name you, what are you jumping out for?"

Troll: "You're an idiot!"

Pole: "There is a kind of discussion point of view, what kind of ability is it to only swear." ”

Troll: "Wrong views aren't worth discussing. ”

Pole: "Why do you say I'm wrong?"

Troll: "You're stupid, of course you're wrong." ”

Stand up: "Pay attention to your qualities, don't open your mouth and shut up stupidly." ”

Troll: "You have a problem with your three views, isn't it stupid?"

Bianbian: "Why do you say that I have a problem with my three views?"

Troll: "You're a fool, you're not qualified to let Lao Tzu explain to you." ”

All right...... When I met this kind of troll, I argued and finished spraying directly. It's a pity that in this matter, high-quality people can never spray low-quality people, and high-intelligence people don't necessarily spray low-intelligence people, because if you have a thousand reasons, low-intelligence trolls only have one sentence in their eyes and mouth, "I'm right, you're wrong, so you're stupid."

Some people are spraying each other, and some people are pondering.

Compared with netizens, the domestic media are much calmer and more rational than netizens, but it is impossible for the media not to participate in the development of things to such an extent.

As a result, first various portals launched a "trial" online voting survey, and then various print media either began to sort out the domestic donation materials of Bian Xuedao in recent years, or began to write commentator articles, in short, this matter is a big trouble.

Of course, the so-called "big trouble" only refers to the country.

……

……

Domestic public opinion was disturbed, and American public opinion laughed it off.

Because in the United States, it is really not news that universities receive donations, and the news value is limited. Even if Bian Xuedao adds a "0" after 15 million, the American media will increase the length of the report, but it will not be as excited as the domestic media.

The reason for this is simple: private donations have always been the main "reason" and source of funding for the survival of private universities in the United States, and the donation rate is also one of the key indicators to measure the success of an American university. To put it bluntly, if a private university in the United States has a low donation rate, or if no one is donating, it will be difficult for the school to continue.

There are two reasons for this:

First, in the United States, private universities receive very little funding from the federal and state governments, and their main sources of funding are grants from alumni associations, the business community, foundations, etc., and the proceeds from endowments accumulated from these funds. Therefore, if the donation is weak, it will be like the only person in the family of four who works is also unemployed, and eating will become a problem after a long time.

Second, top private universities such as the "Ivy League" have need-blind scholarships, that is, as long as the school thinks that a student is good enough, once admitted, they will judge how much the student's family can afford according to the student's family situation, except for the part that the family can afford, the rest is provided by the school, which is the "full scholarship for studying abroad" that is often heard in China.

Not only need-blind, but also the scholarships and subsidies of top private universities in the United States are diverse, and the beneficiary groups cover a very large area.

Even students who pay full tuition fees are still losing money teaching and educating people when they are still in school for a few years.

Is it because the managers of the "Ivy League" are stupid?

Of course not!

They're actually casting a long line to catch big fish.

In short, students who are favored by admissions officers at top private universities outside the Ivy League and outside of the league are bound to have their own merits.

These gifted students have a much higher chance of success than anyone else when they receive a high-level education from a top university.

In human society, the three most basic measures of success are power, fame, and money. And if nothing else, "power" and "fame" will eventually translate into "rich".

Well, by this time, it means that the "harvest season" of the school has arrived.

Think back!

They give you free tuition, they give you scholarships to make you live, and they provide you with the best educational resources in the world to teach you to become a talent. Even if you graduate, people still think of you, remember you, respect you, mail you alumni publications to you from time to time, introduce you to the development of the school from time to time, invite you back to the school from time to time to participate in activities, and from time to time ask you to vote for the school's major events, so that you feel that you are the master of the school.

With such a long-term emotional investment, who can resist the sense of belonging exuded by the school?

Is it hard to guess what a billionaire who is grateful to his alma mater will do?

Hong Chengfu is an example.

When Hong Chengfu went to Yale, he also relied on a scholarship to study. Later, after graduating and joining the workforce, Yale alumni also contributed to several key opportunities.

Therefore, when he learned that Bian Xuedao was going to donate money and hesitated between Harvard, Yale and Stanford, Hong Chengfu strongly suggested that Bian Xuedao choose Yale.

Hong Chengfu touched Bian Xuedao with a sentence: "If it weren't for the Yale scholarship, I would be another me, that me, who might be preparing for classes in a school in China now, and then need a few papers to calculate the promotion title; I might be working hard for a department, deputy department, or department in a certain institution in a certain city; I might also use a calculator in a small company to calculate this month's car loan, housing loan, and performance bonus." So, since I know first, I will definitely ask you to donate the money to Yale, just like if Lao Shen knew first, he will definitely ask you to donate the money to MIT. ”

Bian Xuedao listened and sighed: "This ranking, that ranking, this list, all of them are not as good as an alumni donation list! ”

Hong Chengfu also said with mixed feelings: "It is also about making education a business, and some people are eager to pluck out all the feathers on the chicks and coldly equip them with two prices." Some people provide food and drink to teach the chicks to hunt and fly, only to one day the chicks will grow into an eagle Dapeng, pull a feather and cover the mountains and rivers. ”

Looking at Hong Chengfu, he asked, "Are you really grateful to Yale?"

Hong Chengfu said without hesitation: "After I die, the first eight words on the tombstone must be -- I was born in China and studied at Yale." ”

Bian Xuedao smiled and asked, "The previous schools are not counted?"

Hong Chengfu said loudly: "My tombstone is only engraved with things that make me feel proud. ”

……

……

Yale also has something to be proud of, and a lot more.

After signing the donation agreement, Bian Xuedao, accompanied by the school executives, visited the campus in a leisurely manner.

In view of Bian Xuedao's Chinese identity, the "yale-China-association" was arranged as the first stop of the visit.

When Bian Xuedao and his entourage arrived, dozens of Chinese students and visiting scholars gathered in front of the Yale-China Association's Little Red House. There are both men and women among the international students, and everyone has a proud smile on their faces.

They were proud because word had spread in the school that a young Chinese entrepreneur had decided to donate $15 million to Yale.

They are proud, and because of Bian Xuedao's age and achievements, every Yale student who hears his resume for the first time is surprised, especially after learning that KKI, which is rapidly becoming popular in the United States, is a product of Bian Xuedao, and after learning that Bian Xuedao is the shareholder who invested heavily in helping SpaceX come back to life, even the most unruly Yale students will not show a trace of "but so" expression.

Yale's pride will not be intimidated by huge wealth, but they will respect people who are truly thoughtful, courageous, and capable, and the two notes of KKI and SpaceX are just enough to make Bian Xuedao touch the edge of Yale's respect.

In front of the Yale-China Association.

Bian Xuedao shook hands with the international students and visiting scholars present one by one, smiling and greeting, without the super-rich at all.

In the words of "There Are No Thieves in the World": What is the most expensive in the 21st century?

International students who can study at Yale are not much worse.

For Youdao Group, which is on the rise, everyone here is a treasure, if you can dig a few into Youdao Group, cultivate and cultivate a little, not to mention one to hundred, to ten it is definitely no problem.

As the helmsman of Youdao Group, the two most important tasks of Bian Xuedao are to grasp the direction and recruit talents, so he has put on the posture of Corporal Lixian.

Someone wants to take a picture with him, agree!

Someone wants to hug him, agree!

Someone directly said his entrepreneurial idea to Bian Xuedao concisely, and Bian Xuedao turned around and greeted Hong Chengfu, asked him to send the business card to everyone, and then said: "Everyone has an idea to start a business, you can contact Mr. Hong, your senior brother Hong." If the project is really good, I can guarantee that as long as you are not researching biochemical weapons in science fiction films, not particularly regressive projects that burn money, and not throwing rockets into space, funding is not a problem. ”

"Hah!"

The surrounding international students were amused by Bian Xuedao's humorous words.

Looking around, Bian Xuedao continued: "KKI company in Mountain View, if someone encounters difficulties in starting a business in Silicon Valley in the future, you can contact KKI Technology, under the premise of not breaking the law, as long as it is within our power, I promise to provide you with help within our ability." ”

As the words fell, there was silence and then applause.

To be honest, most of the people who can study at Yale are independent-minded and somewhat arrogant, and they will not easily applaud someone in unison.

But now, because everyone understands the weight of this promise, they all applaud and thank you together. This applause thanked Bian Xuedao for his generosity and his heart, and at the same time wanted to make the school executives present feel the unity of the Chinese.

The tour continues.

Everyone understands that Hulala's nearly 100 people walking together on campus are too conspicuous, so most of the international students and visiting scholars say goodbye and leave.

Next, while learning the road, walk all the way and look at it, the route is arbitrary, and then don't stop.

Walking past The-Women's-Table, which the school had intended to be the focus of, he stopped in front of the Gothic-style Sterling-Memorial Library.

The Chinese characters engraved on the second plate on the right above the library arch attracted Bian Xuedao's attention.

He stood in front of the door and looked up carefully, and read out softly-"Brother Qing is a great ruler of the people, or captures his master, or beheads his evil." When the rescuers are hanging, they are trapped in the court of thieves, and there is no one around. Count their sins, hands and feet are placed on the blade, and loyalty is in the form of color. Unprecedented in ancient times, I am very grateful. ”

Just as he read the last word, Bian Xuedao's mobile phone rang.
