Spending money is more difficult than making money. Although this is a nonsense, it is not unreasonable. Wang Ai now realizes this. Spending money is difficult, what is the difficulty? The difficulty is that you have to spend it in an industry you do not understand.
Here, you don’t know whether your kindness can achieve your goal, so you have to invest energy in entering an unfamiliar field, guard against this, block that, really spend good money, and don’t hesitate to start a business again.
Therefore, charity is also a kind of career, and career is not too easy.
After Wang Ai's actions were generally praised by the sports circle, something unexpected happened starting from the next day: Wang Ai's friends stood up one after another and expressed that they would also play a certain role in helping their colleagues tide over the difficulties.
Start donating to this foundation individually.
Bai Guanghai and Luo Tongliang did not discuss with Wang Ai, but directly announced through reporters that they would each donate one million yuan. But before the public opinion caused by them could fully ferment, that afternoon, Zhang Yonghai, Chen Yang, Sun Jihai, and Qu Bo also announced separately.
Statement: Each donated 500,000 yuan. While the reporters were busy contacting them separately, the next morning, Yang Chen, Hao Haidong, Qu Shengqing, Zheng Zhi, Li Weifeng, Zong Lei, Yao Xia and others announced their donations respectively.
statement. Then, Zhao Junzhe, the star of the Liaoning Beyond Club, issued a donation statement for the entire team, and then retired Sichuan athlete Ma Mingyu issued a donation statement... Half a month later, the amount of donations raised by the football circle alone reached 40 million!
This is the largest charity event in the history of Chinese football. It has created a good impression of Chinese football stars and Chinese football. After all, the three national team captains and all the main players of the national team have donated. Even Yan Shiduo was tempted to ask the Football Association to donate.
, but later it was seen that the cadres under his command were not making much, so they ceased operations.
Even Zhao Xuri, Feng Xiaoting, Chen Tao, Dai Qinhua, Gao Lin and others also stood up and expressed their willingness to donate, but Wang Ai, who got the news, scolded them back.
How much money do you earn? You may not be living a better life than others. Just take care of yourself first.
In addition to young players, a large number of adult players, first-team stars, and overseas stars took the initiative to participate, which gradually spread out from the football circle. Some well-known athletes in other fields also began to donate generously, such as Li Ning.
With a donation of 2 million yuan, he became the first sports tycoon outside the football circle to donate.
We can’t let those who are professional in the football circle outperform us, can we? Of course, the degree of professionalism in other fields is not high, or there is no professionalism at all, and the income is meager, so the intensity of donations is incomparable with that in the football circle. Most of them are like Li Ning
There are also retired athletes who have successfully changed careers, and athletes with a lot of advertising income, such as Liu Guoliang and Kong Linghui of table tennis, Tian Liang of the diving team, Yang Wei of the gymnastics team, and later even Yao Ming and Liu Xiang also donated money.
In short, this wave of donations was triggered by Zou Chunlan's incident, which touched the tenderness deep in the hearts of athletes, and was driven by Wang Ai's generous efforts. After all, everyone has to retire one day, who dares to guarantee that the current glory is unlimited
Will one day I will end sadly due to a sudden injury? Except for a few people such as Wang Ai, Yao Ming, Li Ning, Liu Xiang, etc. who are indeed rich and do not worry about the future, most athletes are worried about it. Therefore,
This kind of donation is to others as well as to yourself. Therefore, the scope of donations has become wider and wider, so that almost all famous athletes have contributed money, ranging from hundreds of thousands to several hundred yuan.
, but couldn't handle the large scale. When the number of donations exceeded 300, Wang Ai couldn't sit still.
Seeing a series of increasing Olympic champions, Wang Ai was restless. This had changed from his personal crisis public relations to a widespread mobilization and self-rescue in the Chinese sports community. Therefore, after rapid communication with Shi Wenjun, Wang Ai entrusted her
A new statement was released, announcing that due to time and ability issues, he would resign as honorary chairman and instead establish a council. In one breath, Li Ning, Yao Ming, Liu Xiang, Bai Guanghai, Liu Guoliang and a series of meritorious athletes, including hundreds of athletes, were invited.
Among them, there is no need to attend meetings, but the accounts can be checked at any time to ensure the openness and transparency of donations. In order to avoid suspicion, Wang Ai even quit the board of directors.
Wang Ai also entrusted a special person, specifically his father, to personally come to invite Yuan Weimin, the retired former director of the State Sports General Administration, to serve as the chairman. After all, the first time Wang Ai heard about the life problems of meritorious athletes after retirement was during the Asian Youth Championship.
Yuan Weimin brought it up at the celebration party after returning.
Also coming to the door with Wang Bin was Shi Wenjun. She couldn't bear it either. The influence was too great and her shoulders were still narrow and she couldn't bear it. If the football circle is okay, Wang Ai has the face and strength to affect so many fields.
, with so many meritorious athletes, who does Wang Ai count? Has he won an Olympic gold medal or a World Championship gold medal for the country? If Wang Ai hangs around and is greedy for success, his good things will be ruined. In this kind of environment, ordinary people
He is not qualified to take charge at all. His status must be high, his reputation must be great, and his qualifications must be deep. Apart from Yuan Weimin, the former director of the National Sports General Administration, Wang Ai can't think of anyone else who is more suitable.
However, Director Yuan had no time to spare after retirement, so his energy was limited. In the end, he did not become the chairman of the board of directors, but became the honorary chairman of the board of directors, which could be regarded as giving the helm to young people. Therefore, after looking around, the chairman could only be vacant, and no one dared to
I had no choice but to set up a special secretary-general. After consulting Yuan Weimin and notifying all the directors, and seeing that there was no clear opposition, Shi Wenjun was appointed as the secretary-general.
Whether all of them will withdraw in the future and let the directors elect a new secretary-general will be discussed in the future. Anyway, at this stage, except for the roster of the Registration Department of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, the registrant of this fund is Wang Ai, and the publicity says "
Apart from Wang Ai, the "initiator" has basically broken away from Wang Ai.
In fact, this is fine. Although doing things in the future will definitely not be very pleasant, it also avoids a lot of risks. Wang Ai has become a person who makes calls and only takes money to do nothing. What else can you say about him?
From the big Adidas endorsement contract, to the establishment of R Fund, to the domestic public opinion turmoil, to the establishment of the retired athletes entrepreneurial fund, at least this process was controlled by Wang Ai. But ever since Lao Bai came to join in the fun with his voice in Hamburg, this matter
It lost control and turned into a charity with hundreds of millions and counting, hundreds of directors, starry stars, repeated praises, and promotions in management levels, "a useful supplement to the national system under market economy conditions."
Six years ago, Gao Hongbo, who recruited Wang Ai on the playground of the High School Affiliated to the Renmin University of China, could never have imagined that six years later this junior would be able to create such a big scene.
