Chapter 529
A small conference room, less than fifty square meters.
There is a half circle of wooden bone sofa covered with white cotton cloth, a wool carpet on the ground, and a dark red tablecloth on the table.
The decoration in the house is a bit Western style, from curtains to ceilings and hanging lamps, they are all Western styles, and they are intersected with the large Chinese paintings of solid wood guard panels on the walls, but they do not appear abrupt at all, but have a harmonious beauty.
Zhang Xingming, Mr. Shen and several other elderly people were sitting on the sofa, listening to the old man in the middle.
The old man is very excited, and when he talks about excitement, he will waving his arms to increase his sense of strength.
"I said, be braver and faster. What should I learn from others? It is not simply learning how others do it, but learning why others do it. It is not a matter of one or two years to catch up with advanced countries. We must start from the details and accumulate slowly."
"Reform and opening up means to put aside the original system, put aside the burden, go lightly, and make great strides. We have no place or experience to learn from, so we might as well just ignore it and look at it after doing it. We are not afraid of making mistakes, and we will never be able to do things if we don't make mistakes."
"Today I read the suggestions on education and medical care put forward by Xiao Shen and others in Liaodong. It is very good. It is necessary to have ideas and dare to think, to achieve results, to improve, and to do things. We must pay attention to those who can do things, Xiao Hu, you should pay attention to this."
A little thin old man sitting next to the old man nodded and glanced at Mr. Shen.
"Come on, little guy, come to me. Why do you sit so far? Am I a tiger? I'm old and my eyes are no longer possible. I can't see clearly when you sit far away."
Zhang Xingming quickly stood up and walked to the old man's side. The service staff took a chair and gently placed it on the old man's sofa. Zhang Xingming thanked him softly and sat down.
The old man reached out and held Zhang Xingming's right hand, looked at him and said, "I have known you for a long time. I have a very accurate investment vision and do practical things. The employment volume exceeds that of some state-owned enterprises. You are amazing."
Zhang Xingming quickly became polite: "You are so serious that you should do it. I haven't done it well enough, but I will try to do it better."
The old man patted Zhang Xingming's back with his other hand, turned his head and said to Mr. Shen, "Xiao Shen, I'm a little jealous of you, good grandson."
Zhang Xingming hung up a black thread, but what he said was the truth, but why did it sound so awkward?
Mr. Shen said: "The policy is better, and your direction is better. I'm just lucky, I've got a bargain, haha."
The old man smiled and said, "You are still so sloppy. Xiao Shen, let Liaodong go and come to Beijing. You have a higher qualification and occupy a position but blocks others' path. You will be scolded. Liaodong is developing very well now, and you have your contribution. Open your eyes, stand higher and look farther, I will be in poor health, and I will rely on you in the future."
The old man thought for a while, nodded and said, "Okay, I'll follow your arrangement."
The old man was happy and cheered for a long time, and said to Zhang Xingming: "Your grandpa is a little sloppy. You have to be better than him and do practical things steadily."
Zhang Xingming agreed in a sweat.
The old man said again: "I understand your situation a little. It's not about supervising you, but about learning from you. You take every step steadily. I see it. However, your foundation in Hong Kong is a little thin. This is your weakness and needs to be improved. There are still ten years left. I don't know if I can see that day, but I want to tell you that if you become strong, the country will spend less effort to attract others. People born from capitalism are unreliable."
In an instant, Zhang Xingming's head turned countless times, and he also understood what the old man was talking about. He nodded solemnly and said, "Please rest assured, give me five years. Hong Kong Island will be in chaos."
The old man patted Zhang Xingming's hand, nodded, and said, "Don't be anxious, be steady, the hunter who can't hold back can't catch the rabbit."
He paused and said, "Little guy, come to me to have a consultant. Now the times are different. It is the world of young people. We old people also have to contact young people and learn to see the world from a new perspective."
Zhang Xingming was surprised and turned his head to look at Mr. Shen.
The old man smiled and said, "Don't look at him, he wants to listen to me, and I speak, he dare not object."
A group of old people laughed, and Zhang Xingming also laughed, shook his head, and found that he was still not able to do anything, he was still young and could not control things.
The old man said, "I agree with your view on the education system, but you have to go step by step. This is a big deal and you can't be anxious." He turned his head and said, "You can try it out and take a piece of land for him to do it. You can also refer to his opinions on the relevant regulations. You can focus on thinking and make fewer mistakes." The old man on the side nodded and agreed.
The old man turned around and said to Zhang Xingming: "Tell me what you think, I'll listen."
Zhang Xingming said: "I want to set up a fund this year. The foundation mainly focuses on domestic education, including school construction, faculty coordination, equipment and facilities assistance, and students' lunches. Then, it is to improve transportation as much as possible. At the same time, it will publish a journal, which is considered a journal. From time to time, it will publish major and good things about education abroad and domestic, and write the situation in the west to the east to the east, and show the information of the east to the west, so as to add some motivation to their lives.
There are also teachers' subsidies. You may not know that there is another problem with rural children's difficulty in going to school, which is that there is no teacher, but it is not that there are really no teachers. The income of these teachers is too small, so small that they cannot support themselves, let alone family members. Most teachers in the western mountainous areas are not even recognized for their qualifications. Teachers who can persist in teaching there are all people with great personalities, relying on a kind of love for the cause of education and love for the children. I want to help them so that they can see the hope of their careers and support their families through their own efforts. Of course, it would be better if the country could have some policy support. After all, a worthless position may be bigger than the sky in their eyes."
The old man frowned and leaned back to the backrest of the sofa. After a while, he turned his head and said to the old man on the side: "We should go and take a walk more and take a look. If the place is biased, we should not be biased. We should form a system and consider and take care of grassroots workers more and not be officials."
Zhang Xingming said: "Grandpa, this cannot be blamed on the place. It is too poor and backward there, and the government is powerless, so I said that I should mobilize civil forces to be a powerful supplement to the government's work. The country is a country for everyone, not for some people, nor for the government. In fact, I think the government's main work should be more about coordination, supervision and service, rather than taking care of everything from childhood to adulthood and not being able to manage everything."
The eyes of several old men were all looking at Zhang Xingming. In an instant, Zhang Xingming felt an invisible pressure pressing on him and couldn't help but sweat a little.
The old man in the middle closed his eyes and quieted for a while, opened his eyes and said, "Xiao Zhou."
A middle-aged man standing behind the old man immediately came over and leaned over and said softly, "I'm here."
The old man pointed at Zhang Xingming and said, "Arrang to him and be my policy consultant. I will do it tomorrow." Xiao Zhou agreed and retreated. Zhang Xingming could immediately feel the eyes staring at him and lighten his body.
The old man looked sideways and said to Zhang Xingming: "What is your fund name? How much is it invested?"
Zhang Xingming said: "I plan to call the Hope Foundation to bring hope to the children and cultivate hope for the motherland. I will invest 200 million in advance, and it will increase according to the situation every year. I also hope to find a way for private capital charity through us."
The old man nodded and said, "Okay, I hope this name is good, just call it China Hope Foundation. Take more photos and I'll take a look." Zhang Xingming agreed.
The old man also said: "Your coordination, supervision and service are good. Young people have to live a little more. Do you have any detailed ideas to write them out and show them to me. I will also learn and learn. In the country's reform and opening up, the government also needs to reform and opening up. The old tricks will sooner or later be lost. Government staff must keep learning. If they don't study, they will fall behind and they will not do a good job."
Zhang Xingming agreed.
Half a circle of old people nodded and agreed, looking thoughtful.
The old man closed his eyes and leaned on the sofa for a while, and said softly: "That's it. I'm tired, little baby. If you have something to do, you can call Xiao Zhou. I'm old and I can't hear the phone clearly. If you have any ideas, write it down and show it to me. This consultant is not in vain."
Zhang Xingming agreed, and as the old men stood up and walked out of the room on the thick carpet, the old man leaned on the sofa without opening his eyes, Xiao Zhou stood quietly behind him.
