In May, the clouds are gathering.
The grass and trees in the yard were blown sideways by the strong wind, and the leaves in the potted plants were rustling. Lu Fei was sitting on the balcony.
The computer on the table displays the warehouse classification list.
There are medical supplies, as well as tents, raincoats, mattresses, milk, milk powder, instant noodles, mineral water and other daily necessities.
"It's going to rain. Come inside."
Gao Yuanyuan walked up to him and saw him staring blankly at the ravaged lawn. "It's good to have a gust of wind and a rain. It's really boring these days."
"Yeah, it's unbearably boring."
Lu Fei came back to his senses and responded.
"What's wrong with you lately? You're always in low spirits and sighing. You're also listless when you go out to play with your eldest brother and sister-in-law's family on May Day. What's wrong?" Gao Yuanyuan asked with concern: "Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere? Or is something wrong?"
"It's just that spring is gone and May is here. It's a bit sad for spring and sad for autumn." Lu Fei closed the laptop, shook his head and laughed.
"If you're not happy, then eat something sweet."
Gao Yuanyuan pouted, grabbed his arm, pulled him into the living room, unwrapped the chocolate and fed it to him.
Lu Fei opened his mouth, absent-mindedly.
"In the list of Olympic torchbearers released this time, I, Sister Zeng Li, Sister Hai Lu, and Jing Tian were all selected. It's a pity for Mimi and Shishi. It is said that they were eliminated in the final round."
Gao Yuanyuan shook her head and laughed: "I cried at the beginning, but when the first-day box office and first-week box office of "Search" came out, these two girls forgot about it in the blink of an eye, but it was more than 56 million in 7 days. It was completely He’s rushing to break the 100 million mark.”
"Uh-oh."
Lu Fei was chewing chocolate, sometimes looking at the TV, sometimes looking at his mobile phone, and suddenly saw ripples on the water in the cup.
"What's wrong?"
Gao Yuanyuan followed his eyes and realized something was wrong, feeling a faint vibration.
"Maybe it was an earthquake."
Lu Fei stood up immediately.
"ah???"
Gao Yuanyuan didn't react for a while.
I heard thunder and lightning outside the house, and rain fell heavily.
In the blink of an eye, the sound of rain became a roar, the sky seemed to be cracked with countless holes, and the heavy rain formed a waterfall, pouring down towards the earth.
"At 2:28 this afternoon, an earthquake measuring 7.8 on the Richter scale (later changed to 8 on the Richter scale) occurred in Wenchuan, Sichuan and Chongqing..."
“One and a half days after the earthquake, the command headquarters made careful decisions and selected 15 experienced airborne troops out of 100 airborne troops to carry out parachute operations. Without ground guidance, ground markings, and meteorological data, Perform a 5,000-meter blind jump..."
Relevant news is being played on the LCD TV.
"Hedong, transport the concentrated materials to the storage center closest to Sichuan and Chongqing first, and send them in as soon as transportation is restored."
Lu Fei has been staying in the company for the past two days, doing mobilization meetings, allocating supplies, setting up a rescue support team, and organizing a supply transport convoy. He is just going home now.
"Yes, yes, special delivery by car. We must give full play to the advantages of Zhongtong's independent logistics and distribution. The entire front line is under your command."
He was pacing back and forth with dark circles under his eyes.
"Mr. Lu, I want to go with the brothers in the rescue convoy." Liu Edong asked for instructions without hesitation.
"Are you going to Sichuan and Chongqing?"
"Since you are a front-line commander, you must go to the front line. The problems there are complicated and you can't explain them clearly on the phone. Moreover, the communication is sometimes not working well. It is better to dispatch on the spot."
"Have you really thought about it?"
"Think about it, I have one idea in my mind right now, to continuously send supplies to Sichuan and Chongqing for saturation rescue!"
"Okay, but you and the rescue team should not go into Sichuan alone. Go to the mountain city first. Huawei will also send people to repair the communications immediately. If you join them and enter Sichuan together, you will have more or less care." Lu Fei repeatedly warned, "Be careful in everything. , be especially careful of aftershocks, and put personal safety first..."
"Don't worry, nothing will happen! Even if something happens in the middle, I believe we will be able to overcome it." Liu Edong vowed, "I will immediately load the convoy with supplies and hit the road."
"Even if the materials are not enough, we will transfer them from Jingdong's nearby warehouse and donate all the materials needed in the warehouse. There is no need to report. I have given permission! It will be the same in the future!"
Lu Fei put his hands on his hips, "Whenever a disaster occurs anywhere in the future, just do this and keep it as an ironclad rule!"
"A Fei, let's eat something first."
Gao Yuanyuan walked out of the kitchen with two bowls of noodles in her hand. Her eyes were red and her face was full of tears. She obviously cried a lot.
Lu Fei mixed the sauce with the noodles, and Gao Yuanyuan put ingredients into his bowl and said, "My sister-in-law's foundation has also organized a rescue team. Han Hong personally led the team, and Wu Jing signed up. I originally wanted to go." , I was afraid that I wouldn’t be able to help, but would cause trouble to others, so I thought about it and let it go.”
"Otherwise..."
Lu Fei had planned everything long ago. In the name of Gao Yuanyuan, Zeng Li and others, he allocated part of the daily necessities and medical supplies stored in warehouses in northern Hubei, southern Henan, northern Shaanxi and southern Hunan to the Ruoran Angel Foundation. , pick it up when you arrive, and transport it to the nearest location.
"Really? This is great!"
Gao Yuanyuan was surprised and happy, "But why did you stock up so many disaster relief supplies in the warehouse?"
"Hey, I was planning to use these to aid Africa."
Lu Fei told the excuse he had thought up, and the reason why he wanted to use the name of Gao Yuanyuan and the foundation was to keep a low profile and not want people to notice anything strange, and secondly, he didn't want certain institutions to have a hand in it.
He has not forgotten about MM Guo and the moldy supplies.
"Then consider it within the Han and Tang dynasties."
Gao Yuanyuan rarely smiled, "Mother Yang just called me. There will be a charity party on the 18th to organize donations. There are individuals and companies asking if you can participate?"
"Of course! How much do you plan to donate?"
"Well, I have discussed it with Sister Lifang and the others. Although the film production, Hantang Plaza and theater follow-up all need money, I can still come up with 20 million if I want to. At the worst, I can donate all the box office profits of "Search" , what about you, A Fei?"
"This number."
Lu Fei leaned forward and whispered a number.
"How many, how many?"
Gao Yuanyuan's eyes widened, "Really that many?"
"How can it be fake?"
Lu Fei said firmly: "The greater the ability, the greater the responsibility."
Gao Yuanyuan looked left and right, her eyes shining, and she suddenly stood up, leaned forward, and kissed him:
"Eat the noodles quickly, it won't taste good when it's cold."
……………
The charity gala on the 18th is called "Love Dedication".
There are many charities like this that raise money for major disasters in Lu Fei's memory, such as the 1991 flood in East China. Not to mention the mainland, the entire entertainment industry in Hong Kong mobilized for charity relief.
One hundred actors even co-produced a movie called "The Banquet of the Rich", where the four kings and the old and new comedy kings gathered together.
This time it is even worse. Hong Kong and Taiwan are donating money, and overseas are also donating money and materials. The whole country of Pakistan Railway has donated all the tents.
Even Mozambique, a small African country with a per capita GDP of less than US$200, donated 40,000 US dollars.
If my family donates too little, they may get angry online.
At this time, nearly a thousand outstanding representatives from all walks of life gathered in Yangma's studio, most of them celebrities and bosses of large companies.
Before the opening ceremony, a minute's silence was observed.
The host Zhu Jun burst into tears and introduced the disaster relief work and casualties ahead to the guests present.
When it comes to the emotional part, people in the audience shed tears more or less.
Each and every one of them excitedly held red signs for donations high above their heads. Most of them were state-owned enterprises, with a few foreign companies and joint ventures mixed in. Donation figures in the millions or even tens of millions were often displayed on the signs.
Like Shanda, Baidu, Sogou, NetEase, New Wolf...
Following the trend, Ali donated 10 million, but the strange thing is that among Internet companies, even Meituan donated this amount, but Feigou and Penguin were not seen.
Obviously, donate more.
“Did we donate less?”
Cai Chongxin tilted his head and lowered his voice.
"When doing charity, we should act according to our ability. We should bear the responsibility according to our ability. Besides, we are not low. Didn't you see that Vanke only donated 2 million? If we want to scold, Wang Shi will take the responsibility for us."
Lu Yun waved his hand, "Our life is not easy now. The budget of 619 has been cut by two-thirds."
"But……"
Cai Chongxin opened his mouth.
"It is useless to donate an extra 10 to 20 million yuan. Unless you donate an extra 10 to 20 million yuan, the publicity effect will be the same."
Lu Yun shrugged. If Chengxintong was not able to launch a fund like Caifubao, it would have to start a charity project.
Use crowdfunding money to make a name for yourself.
After Zhu Jun finished reading out the list of donors, he also asked representatives of these companies to come on stage with signs, which was equivalent to advertising.
The camera panned to a middle-aged man in his forties, with tears streaming down his face. He held up a sign with 30 million written on it in both hands, calming his emotions slightly.
When being interviewed by the host, he said calmly in front of the TV and everyone present: "I discussed it with my wife before I took the stage and decided to donate another 70 million yuan to help the people of Sichuan and Chongqing rebuild their homes!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked.
Counting the previous 30 million, it is now a small goal. Even if we look at the world and can donate 100 million at a time, there are only a few people who can match it.
Donated $50 million and $10 million in supplies.
"Whoa whoa whoa~"
There was thunderous applause, and soon word spread about his identity.
Gao Yuanyuan said with admiration: "Zhang Xiangqing, from Tangshan."
"I've been caught in the rain, so I want to hold an umbrella for others. That's amazing!" Lu Fei nodded and clapped along.
Although the boss's net worth cannot be equated with the company's assets, after all, some companies have gone bankrupt, but the boss is still very popular and has hundreds of millions. If it is not possible, he can go abroad and have fun.
This is quite common.
Like Mr. Lu, who is the richest man in China, most of his personal assets come from shares, which have market value and valuation. But with the gold mine of the Three Body Fund, he doesn't have to look ugly like some people.
Don’t give yourself a high salary, like Yang Yuanqing.
Except for the logical reason to implement the cake-sharing mechanism, in other companies, he only received an annual salary of 1 yuan, and he voluntarily gave up any bonuses and subsidies. It was not that he looked down on him and did not want them.
Instead, there are more expenses, all of which are covered by the company.
Why don't Penguin give him a Gulfstream G450?
…………
The party process is very long, and the donation list is also very long.
The farther to the back, the larger the number and the smaller the number.
Han and Tang's 20 million were ranked in the third round like Zhang Xiangqing just now, and most of them were ranked in the fourth round.
As for the fifth round, Zhu Jun named the individuals, companies and units that donated more than 50 million yuan.
"Wong Lo Kat, 100 million yuan!"
In an instant, there was an exclamation of surprise.
Immediately afterwards, Dong Qing shouted: "Qilixiang, 100 million yuan!"
The first person who couldn't sit still was Wahaha. The top brother in the domestic beverage industry felt very humiliated. When he thought that the 100 million might have been lost to Qilixiang in a bet, he felt even worse.
The people around looked like they were having fun, their eyes moving between Wahaha, Wanglaoji and Qilixiang, whispering to each other, what is the purpose of selling milk tea and herbal tea?
But what caught people even more off guard was that Zhu Junnian said:
"Penguin, 100 million yuan!"
"Feigou, 100 million yuan!"
"Logic, 100 million yuan!"
The camera showed Lu Huateng, Xu Lei and Sun Hongjun respectively.
Although it was unexpected for a moment, it was reasonable for everyone to take a closer look. After all, it symbolized China's leader in the Internet and semiconductor fields, so it was appropriate to donate so much.
But what I didn't expect was that Mr. Lu wasn't given the shot?
Including Lu Yun, pairs of eyes looked directly at Lu Fei, and they saw a trace of sadness on his serious face.
"That's not his style."
Cai Chongxin said confused: "What are you planning on?"
"..."
Lu Yun frowned, always feeling that something was wrong.
After announcing the donation amount of over 100 million from Rizhao Iron and Steel Group, the National Securities and Futures Industry, and Pengcheng Charity Association, Dong Qing suddenly saw another person holding a red card and couldn't help but take a deep breath.
This man is clearly Mr. Lu!
When the camera was given to him, when the eyes of the audience were focused on him, everything that was thought of and unexpected was not expected in the end.
Donglu Group, 250 million in cash! 250 million supplies!
"Hiss~"
Everyone was shocked by the amount.
According to common sense, donations are donations, but individual donations should not be too prominent. This has long been an unwritten rule.
But I never expected that Mr. Lu would break it!
He stood up, buttoned up his suit jacket, completely ignored everyone's surprised and puzzled looks, and strode onto the stage.
Anyway, he is recognized as the richest man in China. No matter how low-key he is, he can no longer keep a low profile. I will stop pretending and I will show my cards!
What if I break the rules?
Rules are meant to be broken!
Who agrees? Who objects?
No one in the audience had any objection to Lu Fei's actions, and no one dared to object at this moment. Applause sounded at this moment.
The whole place erupted with the most enthusiasm today.
"Okay, we also ask all entrepreneurs to say a word to our audience and compatriots in the disaster area."
It was time to speak again. After Xu Lei, Sun Hongjun, and Lu Huateng had finished representing the e-commerce, semiconductor industry, and Internet industries, when it was Lu Fei's turn, he held the microphone in his hand:
"In times of crisis, we have no choice but to take responsibility."
“With great power comes great responsibility.”
"I believe that our unity and love can overcome disasters, and we can overcome every historical, current and future disaster. Rescue and reconstruction in disaster areas, with me! With you!"
"Whoosh!"
The atmosphere at the scene was so warm that the countless viewers at home and abroad who were concerned about the earthquake relief in front of the TV were extremely moved.
This is the responsibility of the richest man in China!
Fei Yang’s mother’s careful promotion in “Face to Face” is not in vain!
Worthy of these three words of positive energy!
In short, Mr. Lu made his final appearance and successfully held the entire party. The leaders in the front row were all smiling and stroking their hands.
Especially Lin Jiaqing and Leader Sha looked at each other and smiled.
This child was raised by us!
In the midst of the excited crowd, Lu Yun, who was sitting in the corner, gritted his teeth until they were almost broken, and squeezed out a sound from between his teeth:
"Lu Fei! Lu Fei~"
Cai Chongxin was shocked. He looked at him who had fallen into a demonic barrier, and then looked at Lu Fei who was resolute on the stage, and sighed deeply.
There are differences between the same rich people.
Thanks for the 100 starting coins for tripping the elephant.
