Chapter 382: Building Momentum and Raising Hope
Subsequently, Zhang Naijing did several major things in a row.
The first thing is to invest 200 million US dollars to renovate Nanxun Ancient Town and make it a model of Jiangnan Water Town!
The second thing is to build more hope primary schools and establish a "teaching support foundation" to support recent graduates to teach in remote villages.
The third thing is to build the tallest building in Pudong, up to 118 floors, named "Naijing Financial Building".
Fourth, he decided to provide a bag of "Naijingpai" milk to all primary school students in the magic capital every day between classes!
After such a toss, his reputation has become louder, but there are many people who scold him!
"This man is insane!"
"It's shameless, selling fame and reputation, to this point!"
"What the hell is going on with the Zhang family? Is the milk they provide safe?"
"As the saying goes, people don't be romantic! But Zhang Naijing is 100 years old! He suddenly became so high-profile, what did he want to do?"
Some people also said good things for the Zhang family: "No matter what, it's a good thing that the dolls can drink milk!"
"If the doll in the magic capital doesn't want to drink, then give it to us in Guizhou!"
"Don't be dissatisfied! The Zhang family has already supported Guizhou and built 500 hope primary schools!"
In addition to these things, the Zhang family also did another big thing, taking advantage of the 98 flood, to take out 20 billion yuan to rebuild the homes of the affected people!
This matter was mentioned in the national media, and even the news broadcast mentioned it, so it made the Zhang family famous!
A lot of people are raving about it!
"This is the model of capitalists! The good deeds done by the Zhang family are about to surpass those of the Qin family!"
"What is the Zhang family and the Qin family, they are originally one. The wife of the wealthy Zhang Naijing is Qin Ling, the eldest lady of the Qin family. ”
"The rise and fall of the country is the responsibility of the husband! China has finally produced a few philanthropists! This is a great good thing!"
There was an old man wearing a peaked cap, sitting in the shade of the trees in the People's Park, playing chess while talking nonsense: "The Zhang family used to be one of the four elephants in Nanxun, and there were 10 million taels of silver in the late Qing Dynasty, but unfortunately after the liberation, the family was defeated, and only Zhang Naijing lived overseas, and after years of hard work, the prestige of the family was revived." ”
Someone next to him asked: "Mr. Li, I heard that your family used to be one of the 'Eight Cows' in Nanxun, right?"
The old man waved his hand and sneered: "Don't mention my family! Let's just talk about the Zhang family, guess how much money the Zhang family has now?"
"There should be 100 billion yuan, right?"
"I've read a document that last year, the Zhang family had $38.5 billion, equivalent to 300 billion yuan! Ranked seventh on the world's richest list! That's really a splash of wealth!"
"God, I didn't expect to have so much money, how did the Zhang family get rich?"
"When my father was alive, he was still moving around with the Zhang family, so I know a little bit about the story of his early years. It is said that Zhang Naijing was originally just a junior of the Zhang family, and the money he received from his ancestors was not much, and the total amount did not exceed 2 million oceans. As early as 1921, he made $8 million, and asked Zhang Naijing, who went to the United States to study, to bring all of them with him and buy all of them into stocks. Until 1929, when the stock market soared, Qin Dashao sold the stock and made $50 million, and then he went short, and his assets suddenly exceeded $200 million!"
More and more people gathered next to him, and some people couldn't help but ask: "I saw this story in a financial magazine." But what does the Qin family's fortune have to do with the Zhang family?"
The old man said with a smile: "After Qin Dashao made money, he gave Zhang Naijing $5 million on the spot! Later, he got the Minsheng Automobile Factory from the young marshal, and gave Zhang Naijing half of the shares of the automobile factory......
Some people are envious: "Zhang Naijing is really blessed, he married the eldest lady of the Qin family, and he made a fortune!"
There are also humanitarians: "Even if there is this foundation, how did the Zhang family become the seventh richest person in the world?"
The old man said: "Qin Dashao has a son named 'Qin Hong', who is also extremely smart! After Qin Hong arrived in the United States, he joined hands with Zhang Naijing to set up the 'Hongjing Fund', which specializes in speculating on the stock markets of various countries......
Someone asked, "How do you know so much?"
The old man coughed dryly and said: "These things are not secrets, they are disclosed in some magazines, I used to work in the propaganda mouth, and now I am retired......"
Speaking of this, he suddenly changed the subject: "Do you know? The old lady of the Qin family has three sons, the eldest son, Qin Hanliang, died within a few years after liberation, and the other two sons, one named Qin Hancheng, is Qin Dashao's father...... The other is Qin Hanxu, he is also a big capitalist, but this person is very low-key and has always been inconspicuous...... Just last month, the magic capital released a book called "Heroes of the Anti-Japanese War", which included 100 big names and revealed a lot of secrets......"
"What's the secret?
"Speaking of Qin Hanxu alone, on the eve of the War of Resistance Against Japan, he was ordered to set up the East Asian Information Research Institute, went to Japan to collect intelligence, and made immortal contributions to the victory of the War of Resistance Against Japan! For this, he was also secretly commended by Mr. Qing and received a medal of the Order ......of the Blue Sky and the White Sun."
"Is this true or false? Why has it never been in the newspapers before?"
"This is true, someone at the Hoover Institution in the United States saw the "Diary of Mr. Qing", which mentioned the East Asian Institute of Information, saying that Qin Hanxu had been hiding in Japan for eight years and tried every means to blow up the Denghu Research Institute, which was a research institute on bacteriological warfare......"
"Oh my God, in this way, he is really a hero of the Anti-Japanese War!"
All in all, Zhang Naijing and Qin Hanxu began to be interviewed by reporters in order to open their spirits, or ask people to write articles, and find ways to build momentum and hope.
Comparatively speaking, Qin Di still keeps a low profile, because he doesn't need to build momentum, if he wants to do something, just do it.
In August 1997, Qin Di applied to the government of the magic capital to establish a private museum.
The approval came down quickly.
Qin Di built the museum in Pudong, on the edge of the later Disneyland.
He spent more than $100 million to make the museum big, beautiful, and safe. He also employs more than 30 security guards alone.
Subsequently, he took some antiques, books, calligraphy and paintings, and treasures from Wuyi Mountain Cave and placed them in the museum.
These eastern and western parts belong to China's treasures, and he has not taken out the Western part for the time being, because the national strength is not strong enough, and the WTO accession negotiations are still in progress, and if the Western national treasure is taken out, it will bring about diplomatic disputes and increase pressure on the government.
He only took out a small half of the Chinese treasures, and filled the museum, which basically belonged to the Ming and Qing dynasties, and did not include the paintings of the Republic of China, many of which belonged to the national treasures.
