Chapter 287: Having a Bad Criminal Record
A billion dollar charitable foundation? All the reporters were immediately shocked by this figure, how many rich people in Hong Kong have assets of more than 1 billion? There should only be three or four. Although they knew the theme of today's press conference, they guessed that the scale of the foundation was at most one or two billion Hong Kong dollars, but they didn't expect that Gu Chen's first move would be 1 billion US dollars. However, they were shocked, and soon returned to normal, tens of billions of dollars of super-large Gu Chen were spent in minutes, compared to taking 1 billion dollars to do good deeds is really pediatric.
sighed again: Sure enough, there is big news where there is a small number of days, and it is estimated that this news will set off another round of heated discussions.
Seeing that the press conference entered the reporter's question time, all the reporters raised their hands high, and the first reporter who got the opportunity unexpectedly aimed at Gu Chen: "Chen Shao, what prompted you to spend so much money to set up this charitable foundation?" Is this what your mother would like to see the most, as you said, or is there something else? Also, is the foundation a form of fundraising? ”
"I made it clear that the Foundation does not accept any form of fundraising, because I feel that if there are many simple things to raise, it tends to become complicated. As for the reason for the establishment of the foundation, my mother's desire for me to do this is naturally a very important reason, but it is not an essential reason, as Miss Guo said just now, millions of people die every year due to lack of medical care and poor hygiene, and this could have been completely avoided, I just hope to minimize the occurrence of this situation within my ability. That's all. ”
The next reporter came to Ming Pao, got up and asked Liu Huiyun: "Ms. Liu, your kind deeds deserve everyone's respect." What I want to ask is what you think of the charitable fund that Chen Shao has established according to your intentions and is named after you. Also, would you be personally involved in some of the Foundation's activities? ”
Perhaps because of the mentality, Liu Huiyun, who faced this scene for the first time, was not too nervous, but smiled and said: "I am a very traditional person, I only know that since I have made so much money, I must know how to repay the society, and knowing that gratitude is a basic virtue that people should have." As for whether or not to participate in the Foundation's affairs. It's okay to have Miss Guo in management, and I should attend some events sometimes. ”
The third reporter came from the British "Sun", and the object of the question was also Liu Huiyun: "Hello Ms. Liu. Last year, you publicly said that you talked about He Chaoqiong, Wang Guxian, Zhou Huimin and Li Zhi, and you were very satisfied with them and recognized their identities. Other than that. Guan Zhilin and Qiu Shuzhen are also Chen Shao's rumored girlfriends. I wonder if you've ever seen one? It is rumored that you have a lot of opinions about Guan Zhilin's divorce and the past of dating many rich boyfriends, I wonder if it's true? ”
Gu Chen looked at this foreigner who spoke awkward Cantonese, and thought about whether he should call Murdoch and ask him to fire this unobtrusive reporter. He could have announced that he would not answer questions that were not related to today's topic, as he had done before, but if he did not cooperate with reporters in normal times, it would be too much to say. And this time it was Liu Huiyun who asked him, and he didn't know if his mother, who was a little afraid that the world would not be chaotic, would be willing to answer this question.
Liu Huiyun's eyes narrowed with a smile: "I said it before." Chaoqiong, Xiaoxian, Xiaomin and Lizhi are all good children, and I am happy if any of them is my daughter-in-law. I haven't seen the Qiu Shuzhen you talked about. But I've seen her in movies, and she's a very likable girl. ”
Gu Chen couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart, his mother mentioned everyone but didn't mention Guan Zhilin, which was tantamount to announcing to everyone that she had a lot of opinions about Guan Zhilin.
Sure enough, the foreigner of the "Sun" reporter suddenly showed a smile, and many reporters were also excited, Liu Huiyun's words can play too much, as long as you use your imagination a little, it is another eye-catching gossip.
After two reporters in a row asked Liu Huiyun questions, and asked gossip questions that had nothing to do with today's topic, the host finally reacted and focused the opportunity to ask questions to those media who paid attention to current affairs, such as the Hong Kong "Wen Wei Po" reporter who is now named asked Guo Biyu: "Miss Guo, now we all know that the focus of the Liu Huiyun Charity Foundation is medical and hygiene. What is the area that I don't know what to focus on? Some countries in Africa and South America are naturally the hardest hit by lack of medical care and poor sanitation, but the situation in some parts of the continent, especially in remote mountainous areas, is not much better. ”
This reporter's stance is obviously pro-mainland, and his words clearly reveal the meaning of the Hope Foundation's focus on the mainland.
Guo Biyu said: "Last night I discussed with Mr. Domir about some suitable areas for future cooperation, and learned that Chinese mainland is one of the key areas of the World Health Organization, so I don't think we need to go far, in the early stage of the foundation's work, we will focus our work on the mainland and some poorer countries in Southeast Asia, and then expand to other countries and regions when the business is familiar." ”
This time, the host clicked on the reporter of TVB, and the reporter got up and asked Gu Chen: "Chen Shao, as far as I know, when you returned to the mainland last year, you also set up a foundation, this foundation is mainly based on education, and the scope of beneficiaries is also very small, it seems that it is limited to your relatives in the same village, will you expand the scale of this foundation and the scope of beneficiaries in the future?" ”
"I have this plan, but now some of the mainland's mechanisms and regulations in this area are not sound enough, and the progress of the work may be relatively slow, and one of my ideas is to build 100 primary schools in the remote mountainous areas of the mainland within five years, and increase to 500 within ten years, but there are many problems involved, and we still need to consult with the relevant departments of the mainland before we can determine how to start."
The problem of corruption is widespread in all aspects of mainland officialdom, although Gu Chen has never been to the mainland in his previous life, he has also seen the famous celebrity Guo Meimei on the mainland Internet on the Internet, and this Guo Meimei is said to have a lot to do with the mainland Red Cross, so that the reputation of the mainland Red Cross has been damaged, and the amount of donations received has plummeted. If the relevant party cannot come up with an effective way to ensure that all his donations are used for the things he wants to use, he would rather not donate a penny, which is a bit extreme, but he really thinks so.
The reporter of the Chinese edition of the New York Times in the United States was given the opportunity to ask questions: "Hello Chen Shao, the Australian Prime Minister publicly expressed his hope that you can invest in Australia in an interview with the media a few days ago, and said that all industries in Australia can be open to you, do you have any thoughts on this?" ”
Australia was also hit hard by last year's stock market crash, with the Sydney stock market falling more than 40 per cent for the month and countless people going bankrupt as a result. Of course, the UK is certainly much more likely to lose than Australia in terms of overall losses, after all, the market capitalization of the London stock market is much greater than that of the Sydney stock market.
The reporter's question originated from a question from a reporter from the British "Times" when Australian Prime Minister Hawke attended a business seminar: "Mr. Prime Minister, it has been three months since the stock market crash, and we have seen that the government has taken many measures, but we can clearly see that the speed of Australia's economic recovery is not satisfactory." Prior to this, the United Kingdom, which was also severely injured in the stock market crash, has basically walked out of the economic quagmire because of the help of Mr. Gu Chen's large amount of funds. Will you follow the example of the UK and seek Mr. Gu's help? ”
At that time, Hawke's answer was: "Australia has now developed the latest investment plan, we intend to adopt a series of preferential policies, and we are confident that there will be a large amount of foreign capital into Australia in the coming period, which is crucial for the recovery of the Australian economy." Of course, we also welcome Mr. Gu, who has the enviable capital and all industries in Australia can be open to him. ”
Gu Chen smiled and said: "I have also noticed Prime Minister Hawke's speech, and now my assistant is evaluating the possibility of Australian investment, in fact, I am quite interested in Australia's oil, coal, copper and other mineral resources, and I may consider investing in this area in the future." ”
……
The press conference lasted for almost an hour before it ended, and when Gu Chen and Liu Huiyun returned to the lounge, Wang Guxian was no longer there, Gu Chen just wanted to ask, Monica? Bellucci said first: "Boss, Miss Wang's store has something to do and leave first, she asked me to talk to you and Mrs. Wang." ”
Gu Chen nodded, turned his head to look at his mother, and said helplessly: "Mom, can you show your preferences so obviously in front of reporters in the future." ”
Liu Huiyun was obviously in a good mood, holding her son's hand and walking out, saying as she walked: "Okay, Mom listens to you, even if I am dissatisfied in the future, I will behave a little more reservedly, now it's noon, just go home for dinner, you don't know how long you haven't had lunch at home." ”
Gu Chen knew that his mother must have taken his words as wind in his ears, but he didn't know what to say, who made Guan Zhilin's criminal record too much, and even he had a pimple in his heart, not to mention a woman like his mother who regarded her son as more important than anything else.
