Chapter 1364 The Name of a Hero
"Jie, hurry up. Have you tied your tie yet?" Lan urged Li Jie in a low voice.
Li Jie put on his tie in a hurry, and said quickly: "Okay, okay. Immediately!"
"Hurry up, the reporters are waiting. This is the most important event of our foundation in Asia." Lan, who is already Li Jie's wife, now uses "our" to describe Li Jie's property. She has actually entered the identity of the hostess. For this foundation event, I even took a special leave with Sun Dasheng. Sun Dasheng still believed in Lan, and believed that at least she would not ask for a leave of absence like Li Jie and never return.
Li Jie adjusted his appearance in front of the mirror, and he felt that there was nothing wrong with it. At the same time, he also asked Lan: "How do I look now?"
Lan looked at Li Jie and helped him adjust the position of the tie knot. Then I sprayed a little hairspray on Li Jie to tidy up his hairstyle, smoothed some of the raised hair on the back of his head, and said to Li Jie: "It's great!"
Li Jie nodded. Although it is said that the envoys of the Nova Corps will soon arrive on Earth, all his focus will not be on the Nova Corps and the Skrulls. Because he knows very well that what he wants is to make the earth a better place, not simply to go along with the aliens to do something.
Just like what he is doing now, he came to China especially to promote his foundation in Asia. He made a high-profile appearance as the president of Marvel Group, and invited global media (mostly Asian media) to make a news release.
When Li Jie walked up from the backstage with a radiant face, thousands of reporters who had been waiting for a long time pressed the shutters of their cameras one after another. The flash lights were on, and Li Jie waved and smiled to greet everyone.
"Welcome everyone to this press conference." Li Jie delivered a speech on stage: "Here I announce that the Hero Charity Foundation, Parker Charity Foundation, and Harry and Mary Charity Foundation will officially promote the development of charity in Asia."
Yes, Li Jie's so-called important things are here to promote the development of charitable foundations. Li Jie is actually very rich now, although he can't compare with Tony. But after all, he is the boss of Marvel Entertainment Group, and now Marvel Entertainment has launched three big movies, "Iron Man 1", "Iron Man 2" and "Spider-Man 1", making crazy money all over the world.
There are also online dramas such as "Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D." and "Night Watch" that have attracted fans around the world. Recently, the 3a masterpiece belonging to Spider-Man was launched on the ps4 platform. In fact, Marvel Entertainment Group is now the most profitable entertainment company in the world. Movies, TV dramas, games, animated cartoons, etc. develop in an all-round way.
Li Jie's current personal worth is more than one billion U.S. dollars according to conservative guesses from outside media. But Li Jie has always been very low-key. Never spend money extravagantly. Except for spending a lot of money to buy a large villa in Long Island when he got married, he has always restrained his desire to spend money. I didn't buy any luxury cars, and I didn't live a life of singing and singing all night.
In fact, as the boss of the world's top entertainment group, as long as Li Jie hooks his fingers, there will be a large group of female stars (including male stars) willing to serve him. Although he has so much money, Li Jie has always been very self-controlled. His standard of living has always been maintained at the middle-class to wealthy class.
In fact, the outside world has always been curious about what kind of person this young president who has almost no news, but is ranked first on the Hollywood Power List is. So every public appearance he makes attracts a lot of attention and social news media.
It would be great if I could get some side stories. Too bad he got married recently, and the paparazzi were completely unaware that he got married. This made many journalists feel that a big news was lost.
At today's press conference, many reporters hope to cover some important news. As the home field advantage of CCTV media, they first asked the first question: "Mr. Li Jie, this time you represent the three major foundations to come to Asia to promote charity. Can you talk to us about the specific things you want to do? ?"
"Specifically?" Li Jie smiled: "This is actually very complicated. There is no way to briefly explain it at once. Because I want to do too much. I am also very grateful to my two friends, Harry Oss Ben and Peter Parker. Thank you for believing in me and entrusting me to run the promotion of their foundation in Asia.”
"To put it simply, I come to Asia with charitable funds of more than two billion U.S. dollars a year from the three major foundations. In fact, what I want to do is not just simple poverty alleviation." Li Jie said so.
What he said surprised the reporters present. If you are not here to relieve the poor, what are you doing here? So some southern media asked: "Then Mr. Li Jie, what are you going to do?"
"Change the world." Li Jie said such wild words with a smile. At least in the eyes of the reporters, it was wild talk. What does changing the world have to do with people like you? You are just the boss of an entertainment group. Shooting movies to make money is about the same level as those actors. If it wasn't because you have money to do charity, how can we people treat you like this? Some reporters despise Li Jie in their hearts. They think that people like Tony Stark and Bruce Banner change the world. Or Captain America, otherwise the contributions of agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. and Lance of God Lance are much greater than those of a businessman like you.
"I know, many of you don't believe it. I can see it, look into my eyes. Actually, I have learned mind reading and hypnotism. I have a good relationship with the most powerful hypnotic mind reading master in the world." Li Jay said with a smile. His joke made the reporters present laugh out loud. Fortunately, this person at least knows that he is smoothing things out for himself, many reporters think so in their hearts.
"Let's be serious. I brought the three major foundations to Asia to do poverty alleviation projects. Because the things we have to do are more complicated, we have to go through many approvals in many countries in Asia before we can enter." Li Jie changed the topic back.
The reporter from CCTV continued to ask: "So what are you going to do here? Can you not talk about changing the world?" The humor of the CCTV reporter once again amused the other reporters present, and the whole venue was full of joy and joy.
"Okay, then I'll tell you the truth. Our Sange Foundation is going to carry out training and education in Asia for Industry 3.0 and the age of the universe." Li Jie said seriously: "Everyone knows that the era we are in now is We are in an era of technological explosion."
"If I have to make an analogy, then this is like we have entered a new Cambrian." Li Jie looked at the reporters in the audience with sharp eyes, and he seemed to become extremely aura in an instant, suppressing Everyone couldn't make a sound.
"Cambrian, an era of biological evolution explosion. Almost every day, a new species evolves. From single-celled organisms to multi-cellular organisms. Maybe predators have to face prey they have never seen before, Of course it's also quite possible for a predator to become prey just a day apart. And we're in the Cambrian of science right now."
"Our technology is exploding. The rewards of the new era have left many people at a loss. The old way of life is being eliminated rapidly. Especially in industry, the process of industry is now even faster than the spinning jenny driving away traditional weavers, and CNC machine tools driving away tradition. Machine tool workers are coming more turbulently. The tide is approaching. If you don’t want to be shot to death on the beach, you must have the courage and determination to blend in with the tide. The torrent of history is vast, and those who follow it prosper and those who oppose it perish.”
"We will start preliminary pilot projects in ten Asian countries. Provide free training and education for workers in traditional industries. Promote educational transformation, and will cooperate with colleges and universities to carry out more new academic projects. It will also be carried out in places such as Shanghai , Bangkok and more than a dozen big cities have set up permanent free advanced study centers to help many workers connect with the new era.”
The reporters present looked at each other in blank dismay, they never thought that Li Jie came to China to hold a press conference to announce such a news. Compared with traditional poverty alleviation projects, it is obvious that this project has indeed changed the world. But the amount of investment required for this project will also be astronomical, or even a bottomless pit. Because this is a continuous input, and basically no output can be seen.
A reporter couldn't help stretching out his hand to ask: "Mr. Li Jie, such investment will be huge."
"Yes."
"Your funds?"
"I make a lot of money, but I don't spend a lot of it. It's just a waste of that money to stay in the bank. Apart from maintaining a relatively decent life, the extra money can be invested in society. My friend Peter - So did Parker and Harry Osborne. So we are willing to put most of our personal income into this kind of beneficial cause. Not only in Asia, we have launched similar actions in Africa and America. There are also some cooperations with European countries in Europe." Li Jie said.
After Li Jie said this, more reporters were puzzled. Although there are many so-called "big philanthropists" who donate naked in this world, these people often just change money from their left hand to their right hand. Only the people who don't know the truth think it's true, and think that the world's richest man donating naked is noble or something, and all rich people should do the same. Those who believe in naked donations are either too stupid or too bad, and the worst thing is that someone is both stupid and bad.
Although Li Jie did not propose the concept of naked donation, he proposed a practical charity plan. And this plan really costs a lot of money. This is not something that can be changed by some numbers games on the company's books.
"We will start with China first. We will set up 100 training institutions. We will strive to have industrial upgrading training centers in major cities. In addition to China, developing countries such as Laos, Myanmar, Nepal, Thailand, etc. Conditions. We will delay the advance of developed countries such as Japan and South Korea, and we will give priority to developing and backward countries.” There is nothing wrong with Li Jie’s words.
A reporter stood up and asked: "It costs a lot of money! A lot of money! Do you think it's worth it?" He almost said: Are you stupid.
Faced with such a question, Li Jie answered seriously: "My foundation is called the Heroes Foundation. Marvel Group is also a company that promotes and makes profits with superheroes. The original intention of my establishment of this enterprise is to set up a side for the world. A banner. A banner called Heroes!"
"Heroes are not just about defeating whoever is so-and-so, and whoever is beaten away. A person who can only fight is not a good hero. A hero is more important to have a good influence and role model that can bring good influence to the world. I am a hero If you have made so much profit, you should give back to the society as a hero."
"This is not my personal money, nor is it just a gift from a hero. It is the effort of those who follow the hero as an example and unite around them. This is what heroes should do for this era The greatest contribution and hard work. They just borrowed my hands to accomplish all of this. I said that changing the world is not a joke. Because I know that it is not me who changed the world, or it is not just me. And The heroes who stood behind me."
"They changed the world and made the world go fast. Then let me help with the follow-up and finish them off. Make the world go fast, even if we still can't do enough. But at least these things need to be done. And hope we put up a flag Calling more people to accomplish such a great cause together. Living in this era, no matter you are poor or rich, famous or nobody cares about, glamorous or simple and ordinary. As long as you take life seriously and work hard to live, then you are hero."
"Because there is no hard and fast standard for a hero, you have to rule that you fight monsters to count. As long as you live hard, maintain your positive energy and pass on your positive energy. When you radiate a little brilliance in ordinary life, even if it is weak It doesn't matter. Because you will ignite many flames like you. A single spark can start a fire. Iron Man is a hero who saves a plane's passengers, and holding an umbrella for someone in the rain is also a hero. Because when there are more and more Only when more people do these things will this society become a society of heroes."
"And everything I do today will be in the name of a hero!"
