Chapter 748 Preparing to Go North
Early the next morning, Bao Zixuan was waiting for someone in his office in Kwun Tong, whom he had already contacted last night. And he believed that even if the other party was busy, he would come over to see him first. The title of the richest man in Hong Kong and the number one investor in Mainland China is not for nothing.
President Li of Xinhua News Agency was a little baffled when he received the call inviting Bao Zixuan. However, it is not easy to get Mr. Bao to take the initiative to make an appointment, at least this is the first time. Therefore, just as Bao Zixuan expected, President Li, who was supposed to return to the mainland for a meeting, explained the situation and chose to meet with Bao Zixuan. At present, all work must focus on the smooth return of Hong Kong, and other work can be put on hold.
Although Bao Zixuan cannot decide whether Xiangjiang returns or not, he is also the head of a company with hundreds of thousands of workers in Xiangjiang. His opinions are crucial. If there are no problems with his employees, Xiangjiang's return will be smoother.
President Li was very punctual, and of course Bao Zixuan didn't make anyone wait. After the secretary poured water for the two of them, he walked out of the office naturally.
Bao Zixuan smiled and said: "I'm sorry; I asked President Li to go there in person. I should have gone to see you. But you also know that sometimes being famous is not always a good thing. Many times, you are not free and want to meet you. Individuals will also be infinitely amplified by the media; I hope you can understand!”
Although I don’t understand why the richest bread man was so polite when he first met him, but this is his job. At present, the most important thing is to coordinate the return of Xiangjiang and guide the people of Xiangjiang.
President Li: "Sheng Bao, please don't say that. Not everyone in Xiangjiang has the opportunity to come and see you. It is also an honor for me to be able to come to Heiyun Group. It was not easy to find opportunities before!"
After the two people were polite, they started to get down to business.
Bao Zixuan: "The main reason for coming here this time is because of my mother, who is going to the Chinese mainland. I learned that many students from the Chinese mainland at Yulin Institute of Technology have very poor family conditions. And I heard that many children in the same village have no chance. Studying, she wants to do something for the motherland."
"I want to build some schools to help children complete their studies. As a son, I must fulfill my mother's wish, but except for a few senior leaders in China, I don't know anyone else. I can only hope that you can help take care of it, at least with my mother's money. Be able to spend it.”
"Although during the Chinese New Year, the top management also knew about it. Such a small matter would not take up his old man's time. So it is enough to do it secretly. I also hope that President Li can arrange someone to coordinate with the local government."
"And the Shanghai Automobile Factory will be completed next month, so I definitely need to go there. At the same time, my mother doesn't want to waste my time. This is the most difficult part."
President Li knew a little bit about Bao Zixuan's mother wanting to come to mainland China to do charity. Now that it's finally been confirmed, that's a great thing. But President Li also has difficulties, that is, the issue of funding.
Unlike Hong Kong, which has many charitable organizations, there are very few charitable organizations in mainland China. Many places are not open enough and even dare not accept donations. In case the donated funds cannot be implemented into specific projects, what should be explained to Bao Zixuan's mother and son. People have good intentions to help mainland China develop education, but they have not achieved the desired structure. That would not only be embarrassing, it would even make people look down on China.
President Li: "Thank you Mrs. Bao for thinking of the motherland. We are lucky as a Chinese nation to have such a great charity. I just don't know where Mrs. Bao is going to go and how much money she will donate."
The mother of the richest man in Hong Kong is going to mainland China, and she has donated money to promote education. It is a great thing for both the country and the local residents. At this time, many places in mainland China were very backward in thinking, and President Li was worried about problems. It's better to ask clearly. If something uncontrollable happens, it won't be good for anyone.
Bao Zixuan: "Is this the first time this year? I have prepared 1 billion US dollars for my mother. As for the amount of donation, it depends on the specific needs. At the same time, persistence is the key to good deeds. Every year, part of the funds will be used for the education of the motherland."
"The specific place we are going to is not yet determined. This is my first time going to the hometown of the students of Yulin Institute of Technology, and we need them to be our guides. But the student service is not very reliable yet, so I would like to ask you to help me contact you. I don't care about other issues. , the main issue is that the mother’s safety must be guaranteed.””
"In addition, my mother is not a high-profile person, so I hope President Li can keep it a secret as much as possible. Charity itself is a good thing, but if it becomes known to the whole world, it loses its original meaning. I also have to do business in Xiangjiang, and I can't do too many things. Overdone.”
Although he knew that Bao Zixuan was rich, otherwise the people of Xiangjiang would not be able to call him the richest man. But no one would have thought that his mother would be asked to donate $1 billion to charity. How much courage this requires greatly overturned President Li's understanding.
If you know the matter is serious, you must report it. Although I don’t work in mainland China, I am aware of some problems. It seemed that Bao Zixuan knew something about the situation, otherwise he wouldn't have mentioned the safety issue.
The mother of the richest man in Hong Kong went to the mainland to do charity work, but her safety was not guaranteed. How would that make the people of Xiangjiang think? To ensure nothing goes wrong, security personnel must be arranged.
At the same time, Bao Zixuan requested to keep a low profile, and President Li understood it very well. Bao Zixuan's mother has been widely publicized for donating 1 billion US dollars to mainland China. It's strange that the British can let him go. Even if I don't come here to catch the autumn wind, I will still give you some trouble.
President Li: "Huaxia will ensure the safety of every guest who invests and travels to the mainland, and the safety of Mrs. Bao is the top priority. I will coordinate with the public security department. Please rest assured about this, Mr. Bao."
After that, the two chatted about other things, but President Li did not dare to stay. Returning directly to mainland China, after all, the mother of the richest man came here with 1 billion US dollars to do charity. This was a major event in Chinese history.
Li Yulin had a Hua Xia Bank account, and Bao Zixuan had someone transfer $1 billion there. This is an attitude that tells everyone that we are going there with real money.
When Hua Xia Bank learned that a sum of US$1 billion had been transferred, it felt like there was an error in that link. Later, it was confirmed that it was Bao Zixuan who transferred money to his mother. Only then was it confirmed and the payment was allowed to be transferred normally.
After President Li returned to Kyoto, he reported that Bao Zixuan's mother wanted to come to China to donate money to build a school. The leaders of the education department heard that they were actually willing to spend 1 billion US dollars, which is no less than China's annual education funding. I don’t know what to do, after all, no one has done this before.
The US$1 billion at this time deserves the attention of all countries, but Bao Zixuan does not know; this operation has made many people busy. After all, the education department has learned that US$1 billion has been transferred to Hua Xia Bank. This is the sincerity of others, and they are not exaggerating.
After arranging work, Bao Zixuan returned home. I saw my mother making preparations there, mainly to see the customs and customs in some areas of mainland China.
Bao Zixuan said with a smile: "I have prepared 1 billion U.S. dollars for you when you go to Huaxia Mainland this time, and it has been deposited into your Huaxia Bank account. Black Cloud Bank has no branches in Huaxia Mainland; Huaxia Bank is more convenient, and almost everyone There are branches in the county. Don't worry about money. You can help students who are in trouble when you see them in the past. Building schools is the main purpose. If you want to invest, don't agree."
"You used to just do charity, but you can't lose the big for the small."
Of course Li Yulin understands what her son means. Many people invest under the guise of charity. She would not make such a mistake at this time. After her son started his own business, the family did not need her to make money. The future would depend on whether the money could be spent.
Li Yulin said with a smile: "Your mother is not confused yet. She has a clear distinction between what can be done and what cannot be done. From now on, you can make money alone in the family, and my task is to spend money. As long as you don't As long as you despise my mother for being a prodigal, I won’t care about the rest.”
"But what if someone asks me to invest? Many people have to give face."
Bao Zixuan: "Just say that all our family's investments are given to our son, and he came here just to donate to build a school. Don't care about anything else. At the same time, no matter how difficult the family is, don't give money. This is a matter of principle. Don't let others support you." It becomes the habit of getting something for nothing.”
Li Yulin also knew what her son was worried about, so she didn't worry about it. What I want to do most is to donate to build schools and revitalize China's education; I don't have so much free time to take care of other things.
After that, Bao Zixuan introduced to his mother the things to pay attention to when going to China. How much she can understand depends on her mother. The most important thing is that she is happy, that is better than anything else.
