"Teacher Li, it's no problem. I'll ask someone to bring the money there tomorrow and find an engineering team by the way. We will try to provide the children with a new entertainment room and reading room before the year, so that they can get together to watch the Spring Festival Gala during the Chinese New Year. ."
Looking at the female teacher with gray temples and wrinkles in front of her, she is only fifty-one years old, and she is already so old that she looks like she is in her sixties.
She is a teacher, and there is also a grandmother who is the dean. She has never met her mother and daughter, but she has been working in the welfare home for decades. Faced with such a teacher coming to the company to see her, Wei Tao walked out to greet her in the elevator. I met Teacher Li who was walking with a stoop.
It has been three years since Wei Tao donated money and materials, and daily necessities are supplied almost all year round. Teacher Li and the dean's grandma are very grateful to him and will not come to him easily until Wei Tao starts to support his children's schooling.
In the past, the welfare home could not support the cost of schooling for senior children. No matter how much support the work-study program provided, it could not enable all children to go to school.
Now with Mr. Wei, the funding is not just for tuition, but also for food, clothing, housing and transportation. It’s not just a small amount of money. Clothes for the changing seasons are sent every year. A fixed monthly living allowance is given to the children. It’s not high, but it far exceeds the welfare. The hospital can provide.
The children have gone to school, and they have unlimited possibilities in the future. They need a good learning environment. They didn't dare to think about it in the past, but now they feel it's a bit excessive. Mr. Wei has already given enough, so how can I have the nerve to open my mouth, but when I see the children? They study crowded in the narrow space of the room. It doesn't matter that the study table is old, but it can't be placed.
So Teacher Li is here.
Wei Tao made tea for the teacher. When she asked, he agreed first. He didn't want to see someone like Teacher Li asking for help.
He directly called Zhu Xichun in: "Dachun, you go arrange to follow up on this matter and let Zhao Wei keep an eye on it all the way."
Zhu Xichun nodded: "Okay, I'll make arrangements right away."
Wei Tao smiled and said to Teacher Li: "Teacher Li, please wait for a while, let them drive directly, and bring back some school supplies first."
Teacher Li held Wei Tao's hand tightly. Facing this young man, the excitement had long passed. Once upon a time, most donations were accompanied by publicity and media. Teacher Li was disgusted, but he also knew that there is no love without reason. If we cooperate in publicizing the donor's love, we can bring real benefits to the child, and she will do it even if she doesn't like it.
Except for the young man in front of me, except for the first time when the street community brought people here and was followed by the media, in the following three years, he donated countless donations and materials, seeming to have covered all the places in the welfare home that needed funding, although there was no such thing. He said that Teacher Li also knew that he did not want himself and the dean’s grandma to go to the media to praise other people’s good deeds in exchange for some financial support for the children.
"Xiaolin was admitted to Normal University, and Meimei was admitted to Songjiang University." These are the results. They are the most direct result of the help Wei Tao has given to the children in the past few years. They cannot afford to go to high school. After nine years of compulsory education, they must start their own life. Another life, and now, all children have better choices.
All of this was given by the young man in front of me.
"If Teacher Li teaches well, they will all have a better future and deserve a better future."
"Xiaolin said, come back after graduation. Meimei said, study hard and come to work in your company after graduation."
Wei Tao smiled. He didn't care about such a promise, and he didn't ask for gratitude in return. If it could allow these children to have a new life, that would be enough. Thanking him or not, he really didn't care. .
………………
"Mr. Wei, I'm troubling you again."
Director Wang from the community where the Anshun Group is located came with a somewhat flattering smile. Wei Tao was not disgusted by this. He could allow people who could maintain a little status to take the initiative to lower their profile. There was no need for him to have a big deal. , walked out from behind the desk to greet him, and sat down directly on the sofa area with him. Secretary Tong Jing poured tea for him.
As soon as he opened his mouth, there was a knock on the door, and cousin Zhao Kai, who was in charge of logistics, opened the door and came in.
"Brother, let's have lunch together later. If Director Wang has any needs then, please prepare in advance. This year will not be easy for everyone. Director Wang, employee benefits should be higher at the end of the year. We will also sponsor some, right?"
………………
"You've already made the call. If there are any questions, just arrange the time and make the connection. You pay according to the normal standards, and we will arrange the rest."
There is an old heavy industry enterprise. This year has been good and there has been some improvement. At the end of the year, I want to hold an annual meeting to boost morale and give everyone more energy to work hard next year. I need a venue and the money will be given to them. The standards that Wei Tao gave were his standards, which would not exceed the standards, but would allow them to enjoy the best annual meeting atmosphere with the least amount of money.
Just a few days ago, at the beginning of the Gregorian calendar year, Wei Tao asked the 'Tianranju' hot spring resort to close to the public for one night and receive sanitation workers from all over Songjiang to have a good meal, soak in the hot springs and stay one night. , in the eyes of many people, such publicity is because Mr. Wei is sensible. It is the end of the year. Doing more such things is to send off Li Shuji and his father-in-law. Last year, the Anshun Group lost 3,000 yuan in the face of the disaster. The "Songjiang speed" of more than 100,000 yuan and 50 trucks of goods is a shame for everyone, and it is also a real achievement.
Li Shuji had investigated everyone and found that Wei Tao knew many people from all walks of life, but he never crossed the line when he occasionally asked for help. He even dared to say hello to people who once helped him in public.
"This is the matter of Mr. Wei of Anshun Group. You can take care of it."
After a long time, including the riverside plot, Wei Tao has never used any means of stepping on the line. I thought that with such a piece of land, many people were waiting to see Wei Tao put all the previous relationships into operation, but it turned out not to be the case. , none of the people he knew had ever said hello, which attracted more attention from Li Shuji. He specifically talked to Cao Haiyang and had someone check carefully. Only then did he know that Mr. Wei He is young and promising, and may have taken some shortcuts, but compared to some people who have made mistakes, his behavior pattern of not making mistakes himself and not involving others in making mistakes is enough for Li Shuji to express his previous stance in public.
Even if it is a show, not all merchants will cooperate, and they will not all ask for it after cooperation. Only Wei Tao, this has not happened for a year or two, although he has gained a high reputation and a correspondingly large social circle because of this. , but you don’t have to worry about being dragged into the water when you make friends with him, and it’s completely okay to give him some care.
In a society of human relations, who can really stand out from the rest of the world? Even the few true gentlemen in Songjiang, who are trying to make people show their fox tails in the mirror, are facing Wei Tao , basically it is a process from extreme resistance to questioning, and then to slowly accepting.
There is nothing excessive, and they can feel each other. On the contrary, it is normal in all aspects. It is normal for him to have an autumn breeze here. Sporadic news comes, and some greedy people have a big appetite.
If Wei Tao's handling of the previous relationship of making friends without causing trouble for others has changed people's impression of him, then his behavior in facing those greedy people is even more admirable. I will give you what I should give, but I will never ask you to do anything. Even if you are greedy to get more from others and are a little biased towards me, I don't care. It is still the same attitude as before.
Han Chuang was stupid before. His uncle, the Deputy Hou, once said in one of his articles that if Wei Tao was not a noble gentleman with great ambitions, then he must be the biggest hypocrite among the people he knew. There is no middle ground. Quantity, otherwise how could there be such a person in this world, making friends everywhere, but not asking for help. If you are doing business, it is possible to use a big one at a time. However, he has a passive attribute when doing business. If he is not pushing from the side, he seems to have already Ready to retire.
The island in the middle of the lake was going to be completely cold, so I gave it to him to take over, and he took over the task, and then people who wanted to pick peaches came again. They have been working on this thing for the whole last year, but it was not successful last year. I guess there will be one or two more Years, most of the time, sooner or later the peaches will be picked.
For an ordinary businessman, when faced with this kind of thing, it would not count to talk about it for a year without taking action, but to let his friends have some air and create an atmosphere to shut up those who want to pick peaches. Whatever happened, it just didn’t happen.
Some people agree with his statement. After all, people like Wei Tao are so weird that no one can understand his behavior.
However, someone also made an analysis, and Mr. Wei asked for his name.
This is really good. After adding more titles and reputations to Wei Tao, at a business meeting, Wei Tao said a little bit: "The Lake Center Island project belongs to Songjiang after all."
Now everyone has found the starting point. Mr. Wei really wants a name, and this thing is free of charge. Since he likes it, give him more.
As the New Year approaches, Wei Tao has many more titles, all of which are honorary positions, such as a certain deputy in the industrial and commercial circles, an honorary consultant, an honorary vice president of some charitable organizations, etc., except for Songjiang, It's still helping him operate at a higher level.
Since you love names, I will give you names.
Wei Tao accepts everyone who comes, and he never thought that I would do something out of the ordinary. The world is so big, and there are so many things waiting for me to slowly experience them. Now, it’s good to satisfy my vanity.
As everyone knows, if you plant flowers intentionally, they will not bloom, but if you plant willows unintentionally, they will create shade.
Because of Wei Tao's behavior, his business has become better.
The down-to-earth 'Dexin Mobile Phone Store' and 'Fresh Times' are directly linked to the daily lives of ordinary people. In order to make him 'famous', there are many publicity reports, which makes more and more people appreciate Mr. Wei's kindness. With understanding, even some people who don't believe are slowly being changed. When they have needs in life, they will subconsciously go to the properties under the Anshun Group to shop.
At the middle level, there are 'Tiantianju' and ski resorts. For occasional consumption, Anshun Group is ranked first due to some choices. Even for the taxi business, Yuanda's business is better than other taxi companies.
There may only be one or two purchases in a lifetime - the purchase of commercial housing. Because of Anshun Property, because of Mr. Wei's reputation as a philanthropic entrepreneur, and because of the reputation of good quality housing, Anshun Real Estate's commercial housing projects have always been pre-sold. It's so popular that there's no need to do any large-scale publicity activities at all. Once you open the market and start pre-sales, there will be more customers coming and going in the sales center.
At this time, many people realized that the image of the family as stupid and rich had such good effects.
Few people realize that forging iron requires one's own hard work, and achievements that have a temporary publicity effect will never become the source of long-term benefits.
………………
The Railway Technical School was merged into a certain technical school in Songjiang, moved to a new campus, and had a new school building and teaching building. What does this have to do with Wei Tao?
No, it does matter.
Mr. Wei of Anshun Group is our honorary alumnus. Now in the honor room of the technical school, one of the highlights of the honorary alumni is Wei Tao.
Early in the morning, I put on a formal suit, sat in my Maybach, and headed to the inauguration ceremony of the new school building. The school building was built by Anshun Real Estate, and honorary alumnus Wei Tao also donated 500,000 yuan.
At five o'clock in the afternoon, Zhou Xinglian didn't play mahjong today and prepared all afternoon. He stewed a tan lamb. The aroma was fragrant. The secret chive flowers were specially prepared by someone.
Cutting the ribbon in the morning, having dinner together at noon, and participating in a chamber of commerce event in the afternoon. That is, the summary meeting and activities before the year were relatively large in scale. He really couldn't refuse it. He told Mr. Wei that you don't have to come at other times. Well, if you don't attend, it will make it difficult for us to look good.
For several days in a row, he has been going around in similar situations. This is a much wider area where he can meet people than Zhou Sen's mahjong board. As his image has been established, some rumors have come out, saying that he is Songjiang Jianghu. The boss used this to discredit him.
Even Zhou Xinglian heard about this news. Although he was surrounded by old neighbors, it could be said that he watched the mother and son make a fortune. I don’t know whether those rumors are true or not. Wei Tao has never done anything to bully his neighbors. Everyone is the most direct. witness.
The billionaire, whom I met in the chess and card room, greeted everyone with a smile, just like a few years ago, nothing had changed. Occasionally he would come up to play a few cards and give out smoke to everyone. People who met him became more and more cautious with a bit of humility, but he never showed any arrogance. He laughed and laughed with everyone. He came to dinner in the evening and sat at the same table with his friends to eat without any airs. They don't dislike others at all. For this reason, they feel no pressure to say a few fair words without having to pay anything.
"Mr. Wei."
"Mr. Wei."
Zhou Xinglian doesn't need to take care of business here. If you want to get closer to Mr. Wei, don't take this road. As time goes by, no one will try to take this road. The only ones who come and go are the old neighbors on Anshun Street.
In the past five years, Zhou Xinglian has already regarded this place as her real home. Her old mother took over to live with her, and her brothers and sisters also gather on Anshun Street all year round. This is the center of the Zhou family, with her grandchildren and daughters surrounding her. She doesn't need it now, but she has never missed any festival or some days with sayings, such as wearing red in the year of one's life, or who buys shoes for her aunt on a certain day, and every time I received multiple copies.
At the beginning, she was worried that it would affect her son. As time went by, and she saw that her son managed the relationship with relatives and friends well, she felt at ease and entered the stage of early retirement care. Her brain, which was not good at thinking about problems, was fully rested and there was no need to go to the hospital. Regardless of whose feelings I consider, I will just live according to my heart, and this includes my relationship with Uncle Leng’s son and daughter-in-law.
In the past, she would take the initiative to get closer to her, but now she is also a Buddhist. It doesn’t matter whether you like me or not. I will entertain you warmly if you come. If you don’t come, I won’t ask you to come. In the future of my old life, I will I have a good son who is not afraid of anything.
She stopped taking the initiative, and Leng Han and his wife Yu Feifei began to take the initiative. After all, Mr. Wei now is not an unknown person in a small northeastern town.
Regarding the US$100 million equity transfer of 'Duowan', even though Yu Feifei's family had a sense of superiority as a Magic City family, they no longer had that arrogance. Leng Han couldn't help but feel ashamed. Yu Feifei took the initiative to contact Zhou Xinglian, calling every now and then. , after discovering that Zhou Xinglian likes children, he even asked his daughter to videotape with 'grandma' from time to time.
Wei Tao knows similar little thoughts and doesn't bother to care. As long as mother is happy, even if it's a false thing, if you can keep it, that's fine.
Leng Han's family said they would come to Northeast China for the Chinese New Year this year. Uncle Leng was very happy, but also a little uneasy.
Wei Tao had been busy all day, and his tie made him very uncomfortable, so he took it off as soon as he got in the car. He didn't have time, and he didn't go home to change clothes. He didn't want his mother to wait for him, so he wore a formal suit during the day and arrived at the 'fresh time'.
"Mom, Uncle Leng."
Over there, my cousin Zhao Kai and his wife Yang Yali also came, as did my cousin Xiao Wei and her husband Zhang Jian. They are now the main family members of the Anshun Group. When they saw Wei Tao coming in, a few of them were playing mahjong with Cao Xiyu. , also stopped and came over to have dinner.
Today I deliberately did not eat with everyone. My family opened a table alone inside. Uncle Leng was busy as usual. Wei Tao glanced at it without saying anything.
"Brother, how's it going at the orphanage?"
"It's just the repair, reinforcement and redecoration of the old house. It won't be affected by winter. It will definitely be completed before the year." Zhao Kai is now very satisfied. He is not an ambitious person and has never thought about how to become rich. This is good and satisfying now. He is even happier to be able to do something for his brother.
Wei Tao nodded, unwilling to talk about work on such an occasion. He only mentioned the welfare home because it was important. Then he motioned for Uncle Leng and his mother to sit down, and asked Cao Xiyu, Yang Yali and Xiao Wei to bring the rest of the food.
The three girls gathered together and whispered. Now that the living conditions are better, Yang Yali and Xiao Wei no longer need to go to the battle in person to see things, sell goods, and do business. They have also begun to learn to enjoy life, and this sister-in-law is the best among them.
They followed her to do yoga, get in shape, go to beauty salons, and go shopping. Together with some of her relatives and Cao Xiyu's cousins, they formed a small circle. Recently, they were also studying the future of the New Year. I am going to travel to Xiangjiang and do some shopping along the way.
Wei Tao eats very quickly and usually leaves the table within ten minutes. Everyone around him is accustomed to his behavior and doesn't take it seriously.
The fixed sunroom was pulled over as soon as winter arrived at the door and became the middle ground between the temperature difference between the inside and outside. Wei Tao pulled a chair and sat next to the mobile stove, adding a little firewood to let it continue burning. Sipping the mutton soup and haggis in the big pot, he lit a cigarette to keep warm.
Uncle Leng walked out.
"Smoke one, uncle." Wei Tao pulled up a chair and handed a cigarette to Uncle Leng. The other person sat down with a slightly uneasy and embarrassed smile on his face. He had something on his mind, but he was still glanced at by the child. You can see it.
"Uncle, is something wrong?"
"Uh, um..." Uncle Leng was still hesitant.
"Uncle, we are one family, let's not talk about two families."
"Well, Leng Han and his family want to come to Songjiang to celebrate the New Year." Uncle Leng gritted his teeth and said directly. Zhou Xinglian originally wanted to say it, but he stopped him. He felt that it was most appropriate to say it himself about the early ventilation.
"Okay, it just so happens that our ski resort is open now, and many tourists from the south are coming. When the time comes, there won't be nothing to do."
Uncle Leng guessed that Wei Tao was not a stingy person. The more he was like this, the more guilty he actually felt in his heart.
Wei Tao leaned forward, raised his hand and patted Uncle Leng's elbow: "Uncle, you and my mother are happy only if we are the younger generation. As long as you two are happy, then I will be happy too."
Uncle Leng nodded. He understood the implication. He was also happy for Zhou Xinglian. She had suffered for half her life. When others said that her best years were dragged down by procrastination, she unswervingly lived a hard life. She took care of her children and raised them. The best years have passed, and the better years have arrived. It is much more difficult to obtain happiness in the second half of one's life than in the first half of one's life.
"Come on, come on, the news is starting."
Zhou Xinglian has been waiting for the local Songjiang News for a long time. The TV is turned on very loudly, and the fresh time over there and the chess and card room here are all turned on.
"Today, the new building of xx school was completed and the ribbon was cut. xx, xx, Mr. Wei Tao, chairman of Anshun Group, a well-known entrepreneur in our city, attended the ribbon-cutting ceremony..."
Zhou Xinglian stood in front of the TV, with a slowly happy and proud smile on her face, looking at every frame on the TV, her son was right behind her, but at this time it was obvious that the son on the TV was more attractive.
She has long been completely immune to her son's donation to charity.
The basic living expenses of 50,000 yuan a month, plus all the profits from this store, Zhou Xinglian has money in his pocket and he does not panic. If his son runs out of money, I still have it. She has no money to spend at all, and no place to spend it. She has just begun to accept that buying a piece of clothing costs tens of thousands of yuan. There is still a long way to go, but after buying it, she is reluctant to wear it in the store. Fortunately, these children He always takes me shopping whenever he has nothing to do, otherwise I would never have the chance to wear shoes worth thousands of dollars and clothes worth tens of thousands of dollars, and they would all hang in the closet and gather dust.
"Come on, come on, I haven't played with a pot yet today."
After the news report about Wei Tao ended, Zhou Xinglian suddenly lost interest in the TV program. He turned around and arranged for everyone to continue playing. He also deliberately mentioned that I don't pay attention to my health. I stewed the lamb this afternoon and I didn't play today.
Wei Tao smiled, stepped forward and shook his head. The remaining two partners were nearby neighbors. They didn't think there was any problem with mother and son going into battle. Mr. Wei was simply here to accompany his mother, and He will not deliberately feed his mother cards, but will play with high technical skills. The mother and son take pleasure in this. If they can determine that you are playing bad cards and I am not playing, that is where the real high-level skills lie.
On the other side, Cao Xiyu, Yang Yali, and Xiao Wei were taking grandma to the dance practice room on the sixth floor to do aerobics, which made grandma laugh and scold several children for playing cymbals with her.
However, with the persistence of several children, the old lady also became moved.
Zhao Kaize and Zhang Jian set up a small table in the sun room. Now that they have a rare leisure time, they get together to have a drink.
Families of Zhou Xingrong's generation have made an appointment to come together. In the name of discussing how to spend the New Year this year, in fact they still come to see Wei Tao. If he doesn't like the excitement, then everyone will not go to Anshun Street this year. It’s the 1st, let’s change the plan.
Just at this time, the news had just ended, and the TV in the chess and card room was turned off. The TV in the 'Fresh Times' room was not turned off yet. Aunt Pang also subconsciously adjusted to the court channel 3. Just as she was adjusting, the program preview appeared. .
"The new season of "Win in China" is reinstalled and invites many senior business giants to provide business consulting and help to our entrepreneurs off-site..."
"Wei Tao, it's Xiao Tao..." Aunt Pang saw it, but no one else saw it, but everyone also knew that there were more than one preview of similar programs on Chaoting Channel.
That night, people who saw it told each other that many people had seen the trailer and the main film of the program "Win in China" in the rest hall at the back. In the trailer, it was in the studio hall. In the garden outside, there was a video shot for business leaders. Some people spoke, and some just showed their faces. Wei Tao was the latter, but he didn't show his face to this batch of people. The scene together for less than ten seconds was a huge shock to the people of Songjiang and to his relatives and friends.
His previous investment of more than 30 million yuan in new entrepreneurs was relatively small and there was no way for ordinary people to know about it.
Now that we see our Songjiang boss appearing on the Chaoting TV program and being put on the same level as people like Lin'an Ma, Lao Niu, Lao Shi, Rebus, English Yu, and Venture Capital Xiong, we realize that we feel It was enough to look up to Mr. Wei, but unexpectedly he still underestimated him.
As relatives and friends, real people who can be seen in reality suddenly appeared in this program. The image that I saw was so real and vivid suddenly. It turned out that Wei Tao had reached such a high position without knowing it. .
On the Internet, there are increasing calls for Wei Tao to appear in live recordings. This is a business war program that supports young people to start their own businesses. Now there is a guest member who is younger than many entrepreneurs. We If you want to watch him and watch him talk to those entrepreneurs, that is a scene worth looking forward to.
