Chapter 161: Those who defend my China will protect them even if they are far away
Hearing Lin Chen's words, Zheng Yuezhi looked embarrassed: "Lin Sheng, I heard that many people have died in the earthquake in the island country. There was also an accident at the nuclear power plant there. Now tens of thousands of people are forced to become homeless.
We are a charity, so when we see something like this, we should donate some amount, right? And we do have some balance in our account now, so donating a little shouldn't have any impact on our work here."
Lin Chen did not respond to her, but turned to look at Zhou Ruoyun: "What do you think?"
Zhou Ruoyun shrugged: "Of course I don't agree. We have a little money now, but it doesn't mean it's enough. Why should we give it to those islanders?"
"That's right!"
Lin Chen nodded.
It is true that Lin Chen is doing charity, but it does not mean that he has a holy heart, nor does it mean that he has too much money and no place to spend it.
The Chenyun Charitable Foundation does not raise funds from the public. It is purely a charitable fund invested by him personally, so every money must be used wisely.
Lin Chen’s plan is for the Chenyun Charitable Foundation to become a backing for those whose family members cannot receive proper medical treatment due to family reasons. There are many such people in the country, and there are millions if not tens of millions.
The medical expenses that can leave a family helpless are at least hundreds of thousands. As for the subsequent treatment costs, let alone them.
So despite the fact that Chenyun Fund has some spare money at the moment, in fact, its future funding gap is still quite huge. It is not at all like Zheng Yuezhi said it has some spare money.
not to mention……
Lin Chen felt it was necessary to communicate his thoughts with Zheng Yuezhi.
He found that although this lady from Hong Kong Island was a nice person, she had some Mary's disease, and he still had to correct her.
"Ms. Zheng, I know you have a good idea. But there are some things I must explain to you."
Zheng Yuezhi nodded and said, "Mr. Lin, tell me."
"First of all, I don't care about others, but all the money for Chen Yun's charity is from me. I hope that all my own money can be used for our own people. You said that there are tens of thousands of people homeless in the island country.
You can return home, but in China, when your family members are hospitalized and become penniless, there are more than tens of thousands of homeless people?"
Zheng Yuezhi looked confused: "Lin Sheng, I understand what you mean, but this is an official event after all. If we don't go, I'm afraid..."
"What are you afraid of? Are they still going to make things difficult for us? The Chenyun Foundation does not solicit donations from the outside, and no one can control my money for charity! I know that some people know that people in their own countries still need help, but they have so much money.
Foreign countries are spreading money and doing charity, and they can go wherever they like, and I have no control over it, but no one can order me to do such a thing!"
"Haha! Well said! Lin Chen, I support you!" Zhou Ruoyun said with a smile and clapped his hands.
Zheng Yuezhi sighed helplessly: "Lin Sheng, I understand what you mean, then I will reject you and say goodbye."
After saying that, Zheng Yuezhi walked out.
As soon as she left, Lin Chen couldn't help but ask: "Ruoyun, Ms. Zheng won't be angry with us because of this, right?"
"Don't worry, Sister Zheng is a very nice person, but she is a little too holy. But she will never be angry with you because of this kind of thing."
"That's good." Lin Chen nodded.
Compared to Zhou Ruoyun, Zheng Yuezhi is the core of their foundation right now. If Zheng Yuezhi leaves in anger because of this, Lin Chen really doesn't know who to find to succeed her.
"By the way..." Lin Chen turned to look at Zhou Ruoyun, "Speaking of the Holy Mother, I didn't expect you to be anything but a Holy Mother. I always thought you were very caring."
"Then you think you are wrong. My love is only for Chinese people. I don't care about people outside China."
"But you have to work harder. I see that you have only donated more than five million this month, which is too little."
Lin Chen complained.
Zhou Ruoyun explained: "Isn't this because the review is stricter? There are many people who actually have money at home, but they just refuse to use it for their sick family members. If we go to help such people, it will be easier for them. But don't worry, I have already
Let Sister Zheng recruit people. I plan to send our representatives to every hospital in the city to conduct targeted surveys. In addition, I will also go to each hospital to talk to them and ask them to take the initiative to introduce our fund to patients who need funds.
The situation should be much better by then.”
"Well, that's good... spend the money earlier so that no one will worry about it."
At this moment, Lei Long, who had been standing behind Lin Chen, suddenly said: "Boss, if you have a lot of money and no place to spend it, why don't I give you a suggestion?"
"Huh?" Lin Chen was a little surprised that Lei Long would actually speak.
The same is true for Zhou Ruoyun.
Because good bodyguards usually have to keep an eye out of sight, but now Lei Long would intervene in their conversation, which was somewhat derelict in his duty.
However, Lin Chen did not blame him, but asked: "Captain Lei, what suggestions can you make?"
Lei Long hesitated for a moment and said: "I'm sorry, boss. I know that as a bodyguard, I shouldn't interrupt, but... boss, since you are doing charity, I want to ask some people if you are interested in doing that.
Charity for Anti-Japanese War veterans?”
"Anti-Japanese War veteran?" Lin Chen suddenly became interested after hearing this, "Tell me, what's going on?"
Lei Long hesitated and said: "Actually, it's like this. When I was in the army, I once participated in an event to care for veterans organized by the army and a charity organization. You also know that many of us have participated in it now.
There are still veterans of the Anti-Japanese War alive. Some of these people are already eighty or ninety years old, and the youngest ones are over seventy years old."
"They have shed blood for the country before, but due to the passage of time, many veterans here have not received the respect they deserve, and many of them have difficulty in living. Some have never married, and some have bullets in their bodies.
They have remained in the body and have not been removed. They are still suffering from diseases when they are old. Some people have not eaten meat for decades and cannot even eat enough..."
Recalling the veterans he had seen, Lei Long spoke solemnly.
"So I think... if you have money, boss, it would be better to donate to these veterans than to those islanders, right?"
After Lei Long finished speaking, he looked at Lin Chen with some anxiety.
From the moment he started to explain, he noticed that Lin Chen's face was solemn. He had only known Lin Chen for a short time, and he didn't know what the boss's character was like. He just saw that the veteran refused to donate to the islanders.
, I felt it and got excited for a moment.
Now that he didn't say anything to Lin Chen, he didn't know what the other party would do? Would he reject it or accept it?
But just when Lei Long was feeling uneasy, Lin Chen suddenly whispered: "A few decades ago, those who attacked our Chinese state would be punished no matter how far away they were. A few decades later, if we defend our Chinese people, we would protect them no matter how far away they were."
Lin Chen raised his head and said to Lei Long: "Captain Lei, we are going to do this charity project!"
