Chapter 369: Giving Back to the Country

Zhang Shaojie couldn't help but smile bitterly, sister, although she has the advantage of being reborn, she is full of confidence in the future. Be brave and make a lot of money.

However, there are so many business opportunities in this era.

Innovative high-tech industries, there is Silicon Valley in the United States. Traditional industries, there is a Chinese mainland market. If you want to speculate on real estate finance and foreign exchange, the 80s was the world's largest speculative stage.

In the Chinese market in the 80s, various industrial products were in short supply. If you can directly produce with your eyes closed, you can become a huge rich.

For example, Lin Qingxia established Longteng Food Factory to produce instant noodles. Sell it for 1 Hong Kong dollar in Hong Kong and 3 cents a bag in Chinese mainland. With a little advertising, hundreds of millions of bags of instant noodles are sold a year, and there is no pressure.

Anita Mui's establishment of "Phantom Tianxiang", the mainland market will become the biggest development opportunity, Guangdong, Shanghai, Yanjing and other places, Hong Kong's clothing are in demand, at least tens of millions of Hong Kong clothing every year, sold to the mainland market.

For example, the later tie king Zeng Xianzi, the establishment of Jinlilai Company, at this time in Hong Kong is not a brand. Beginning in 84, Goldlion sold the tie to the mainland and was popular in the market. Zeng Xianzi actually became a tie king with a net worth of billions by selling ties.

In Hong Kong, Tsang Hin-chi has little attention because his wealth is not significant. But in the mainland, the tie king is famous, "As long as Jinlilai does not go bankrupt and Zeng Xianzi does not die, my return to the country will not stop." It has become the main reason why Zeng Xianzi is respected.

Zeng Xianzi has set up three large funds, one of which is dedicated to donating education to support tens of thousands of poor students. For example, the 100 million yuan space fund, the successful launch of the Shen V and Shen VI space shuttles, Zeng Xianzi has rewarded space pilots with 10 million yuan for encouragement. There is also a fund, a charitable fund of hundreds of millions of yuan, which pays tens of millions of donations every year. Before the establishment of these funds, Zeng Xianzi was already in his hometown in Guangdong, and he had continued to donate huge sums of money to return to his hometown.

Zhang Shaojie thought of Zeng Xianzi, and felt even more embarrassed.

In these years, taking advantage of the opportunities of the times, there are many people who have become rich. And like Zeng Xianzi, he has become an admirable fraternity businessman who loves the country and the people, and he shows his heroic nature.

However, due to the exposure of a bunch of shady organizations such as the Red Cross in later generations, Zhang Shaojie lost confidence in many charitable organizations. Therefore, even if Zhang Shaojie is doing charity, he must spend money in places that he can see and touch.

Like Mr. Run Run Shaw's donation, many Shaw buildings have been built across the country. If you go to a school to inspect this kind of donation and see if there is a Shaw Building, you can know whether the donated funds have been wasted or embezzled.

However, donating to education is one of the most important philanthropic projects for the Chinese billionaires, but it is not the most urgent.

Zhang Shaojie feels that China's basic education is not bad, but in fact, the standards are too high. In modern history, China, which has often been humiliated, has constantly set high standards for itself. In terms of education and knowledge, the standard has also been repeatedly raised.

Ordinary Chinese think that the education they receive is a very ordinary education in the world, but they do not know that China's basic education is already the most difficult and strictest basic education in the world.

The premise of this devilish basic education is to default to the fact that all people are geniuses, and to popularize knowledge to the people with the standard of geniuses! Because, many children who are not geniuses feel pressured to receive Chinese-style education.

While children in other countries only have two or three hours of education a day, children in China often study for six hours in the classroom and six hours after class, and study for at least 12 hours a day, which is even more difficult than the pressure of a sweatshop factory.

The thickness of China's textbooks, as well as the number of textbooks and exercises that supplement the lack of textbooks, are enough to make educators all over the world feel incredible!

For example, if an Indian knows a dozen words, he is generally not illiterate. Canadians, able to recognize dozens of words, are no longer illiterate. But China has to master at least 2,000 words to barely get out of illiteracy.

Therefore, Zhang Shaojie decided to donate a hospital, a hospital that does not need medical expenses at all

———————————— since the 80s, since the reform and opening up. A large number of compatriots from Hong Kong, Macao, Taiwan and overseas Chinese have returned to their roots and returned to their hometowns.

In particular, due to the abundance of overseas Chinese in Guangdong Province, after overseas Chinese from all walks of life returned to their hometowns, in addition to worshiping their ancestors and worshipping, many capable people have done a lot of good deeds such as donating money to support education, building bridges and paving roads. Many famous overseas Chinese hometowns benefit from this and are often not inferior to large cities.

However, in the inland provinces, there are relatively few overseas Chinese hometowns. It is rare for the rich to return to their hometowns to worship their ancestors and donate money to return to their hometowns.

In June 84, Zhang Shaojie and his younger brothers Shaohuai, Anita Mui, Lin Qingxia and others, accompanied by more than a dozen entourages, returned to their hometown in Anhui to worship their ancestors.

After the group came to the local area, the mayor of Chaohu City and his entourage were already handsome and everyone greeted them. When Zhang Shaojie and his entourage marched to the urban area, they saw that some primary and secondary schools along the street, as well as enterprises and units, had placed a sea of flowers. Colorful flags fluttering, gongs and drums.

"Welcome, Mr. Zhang Shaojie, you are the pride of millions of people in Chaohu!" "Study hard, make progress every day, and take Mr. Zhang Shaojie as an example!" ”

Looking at many children, sweating like rain made a welcome battle.

Although Zhang Shaojie had a slight complaint in his heart about wasting precious time on formalism, he only said in the end: "Mr. Secretary Luo, I think there is a little problem with your work."

The leader of the local political axe, Secretary Luo was stunned, his face was full of cold sweat, and said: "Please criticize Mr. Zhang!" ”

Zhang Shaojie pointed to the flower pots from all walks of life and said: "On this street, it has become a sea of flowers, I think there must be at least tens of thousands of potted flowers, right?" So many potted plants, gathered together, are already there for me to take a look? Even if it is 1 yuan for a pot of flowers, it will cost tens of thousands of yuan. This is a serious economic waste for inland cities that are not yet financially well-off. What's more, these students are already very heavy on their own learning tasks, so why waste their precious time for image engineering? Secretary Luo, such a face-saving project should be done less, and it would be more meaningful to concentrate funds to improve the economy, people's livelihood, education, and enhance the inside? ”

Secretary Luo looked embarrassed, but soon said with a straight face: "What Mr. Zhang said is that the political consciousness of our local political axe is indeed not in place." The spirit of hard work and simplicity is the fine tradition of our party. It should never go out of style, always remember"

In the city, after having been entertained.

Zhang Shaojie began to express his intention this time, saying: "I came to my hometown for two main things. The first thing is to communicate with the surviving elders and return to their hometowns to worship their ancestors at the same time. The second thing is to make a little beneficial donation for the elders in my hometown. Anhui is a poor province, and Chaohu Lake is in the Anhui region, which is also considered to be the bottom of the income. In terms of medical care, sanitation and so on, they cannot keep up with the big cities. At the same time, there is a shortage of medical care and medicine, and many farmers encounter major problems, unable to perform surgery or take medicine."

"Yes, yes, yes!" Secretary Luo said with a worried face, "This city has always been a poor city, with a shortage of finances and a serious shortage of medical and health resources. Generally, for major surgeries, patients can only be transferred to provincial hospitals. In addition, serious illness has become a very common phenomenon. In some extremely poor rural areas, some poor families with terminal illnesses even committed suicide by drinking pesticides in order not to drag down their families."

Zhang Shaojie nodded and said: "There is an old Chinese saying, 'If you are poor, you will be good alone, and if you are good, you will help the world!" There are many wealthy Chinese compatriots overseas, who are keen on philanthropy. Not to mention other places, the hometown of the ancestral roots must be taken care of. I came this time to donate to build a hospital with specifications that have reached the advanced level in China, and I paid for all expenses with my own money, and the only requirement is that the hospital is free of all fees, and the medical expenses are all mine. Of course, this hospital only treats serious diseases, and only minor illnesses are eligible for free medical treatment. Secretary Luo, do you think this is good? ”

"Good! It's really good, on behalf of the 3 million people in Chaohu's hometown, I feel you! Secretary Luo was excited, and tears seemed to flow from his eyes.

Zhang Shaojie was puzzled.

A small civil servant next to him interjected and quietly said to Zhang Shaojie: "Secretary Luo's old father, cancer, relying on his salary, can't be cured at all, but it dragged on for more than ten years, and he died last month."

Zhang Shaojie quietly asked: "The number one in a city, the old father has no money for treatment. Even if it's a clean official, ask a colleague to borrow money, right? ”

The civil servant sighed and said, "Secretary Luo relied on anti-corruption to rise to power, and he didn't have a few friends in the officialdom. When encountering something, who is willing to help him at a critical time? ”

Before, Zhang Shaojie, who was dissatisfied with Secretary Luo because of the image project, was stunned. It turned out that this extravagant and wasteful Secretary Luo in his eyes was actually an anti-corruption clean official.

In ancient and modern times, Chinese and foreign, in history, bureaucrats who are corrupt and have bad character are often able to make better achievements and a better life for the country and the people because they are better able to do things.

On the contrary, the politics of clean government praised by the common people are often stagnant and generally poor.

Of course, this is not to say that corrupt officials are better than clean officials. It is because bureaucrats who are capable of doing great things are far from being tempted by more and more opportunities, and it is very rare to be able to stick to their hearts and not be corrupt.

The clean officials, on the other hand, blindly maintain their principles, and many things cannot be done. Although individuals have noble conduct, it is often difficult to achieve many good governance that is beneficial to people's livelihood and the economy.

Zhang Shaojie couldn't help but think about who is better than the clean officials or the corrupt officials, this is a question that will never be solved.
