Zhou Lihong is a very fair and honest official. He has been in politics for more than 20 years and has never accepted a bribe from anyone. Although some people offered him bribes, he refused them immediately and sternly.
But Wang Dafa is not an ordinary person. The reason why he has grown from a small contractor to the richest man in Qingyang City in just ten years. It can be said that he is also very good at doing business.
Facing Zhou Lihong's stern rejection, Wang Dafa naturally knew how to deal with this matter. He had also heard long ago that Zhou Lihong was a very honest and honest person. It was almost impossible to bribe him.
'Director Zhou, listen to me, if you feel that you don't need the money yourself, in fact, the money can also be used in other places.' Wang Dafa has been prepared for a long time. If this doesn't work, I will do that. Anyway, I must
Give this money to you Zhou Lihong.
‘Where else do you want to use it?’ After hearing Wang Dafa’s words, Zhou Lihong became a little curious.
'I heard that our Education Bureau will vigorously develop education this year. Since we want to vigorously develop education, of course we need to spend money. In fact, I have always attached great importance to education. When I was a child, I was also good at studying. But later at home
Because I was poor, I didn’t go to college. I originally thought that now that I have money, if my son studies well, he will definitely let him go to college until he gets a doctorate! But my unsatisfactory son has only known about eating, drinking and having fun since he was a child.
, he is simply a fool. He knows nothing except eating, drinking and having fun.
Although my son is not very good at studying, I have always envied those children who are good at studying. I myself did not go to college because my family was poor. But I don’t want other people’s children to be unable to go to college because their family is poor.
So, I have a good idea, but I don’t know if it’s appropriate or not. I want to discuss it with Director Zhou.’
Wang Dafa saw that Zhou Lihong was unwilling to ask for his money directly, so he started to think of other ways. If you don't want to ask for it this way, then I will let you use other ways to collect the money.
‘Oh, you want to use this money for education. That’s great. Our Education Bureau is short of funds! I don’t know how Boss Wang wants to use it. Since this money is yours, just tell me how you want to use it!’
Originally, Zhou Lihong was not willing to ask for the money. But when Boss Wang said that the money should be used for education in Qingyang City, he agreed. After all, their Education Bureau is relatively short of money.
place.
As we all know, our country has now implemented nine-year compulsory education. Soon, it is possible to implement 12-year compulsory education. In this case, children will receive free education from primary school to junior high school and then to high school.
This free education is a great benefit to the people. It allows parents to save a lot of tuition fees. However, this makes the education system somewhat stretched. Without tuition fees and book fees, the education system will have fewer sources of income.
, but it still needs to operate like it was not compulsory before, so of course there is some shortage of money. Although the superiors will also allocate funds to the Education Bureau, after all, you cannot have as much as you want, and they will be replenished on time according to a certain ratio.
Since Wang Dafa is willing to contribute to the education of Qingyang City, of course he, the education director, is happy to accept it.
Whoever is a leader doesn’t want to have money in his hands! This world is originally a world dominated by money. What is a market economy? To put it bluntly, it is a money economy, an economic form in which money controls people and things.
No matter who we are, from national leaders to ordinary people. In fact, we are struggling for money every day. Whether we are rich or ordinary people, what we think and do is essentially the same.
it's the same.
We ordinary people also have various dreams, but there is one dream that everyone has, and that is the dream of getting rich. This is the dream that everyone has. It is also the source of motivation for all of us to strive for it.
Even the education system is the same. It also survives in the tide of market economy. Schools are not a pure land. Schools are also part of the entire market economy. All operations of schools also require money to complete.
Although education is free, it can't be done without money. Teachers need to be paid, and students need learning materials and books. All of this needs to be solved by the Education Bureau.
As an education director, under the premise of free education, I fully feel that it is difficult to win the war on this position. If you don't even have military expenditures, how can you win the war?
We don’t want to commercialize education, we don’t want to commercialize knowledge, and we don’t want teachers to be commercialized. But what is the reality? Under the impact of the commodity tide, nothing can avoid being materialized and commercialized.
Even the students and teachers who have always claimed that they "only read the books of sages and ignore the outside world" still live in the market economy, and it is impossible not to completely love its influence.
Zhou Lihong has worked in the education system for more than 20 years. He also knows that working in this industry is not easy. Although he is a leader, he is a leader without money and a relatively poor leader.
This million may be nothing to Wang Dafa, but to Zhou Lihong, it is a huge sum of money.
After listening to Zhou Lihong's words, Wang Dafa said again, "Director Zhou, this is it. I want to set up a Dafa Education Fund. It will be used specifically to reward students who have achieved good results in the high school entrance examination and college entrance examination. Also, the families in the city are poor and have no money."
He can also sponsor children in high school and college.
The start-up fund of this Dafa Education Fund is one million. I will invest one million first. After that, I will also find some other big bosses in our Qingyang City and ask them to join me in this Dafa Education Fund. In this way
, we can work together to contribute to the education of our Qingyang City.'
Wang Dafa is indeed a person who has been in the business field for many years. He often interacts with various people in the business and political circles. He has also seen a lot of good leaders like Zhou Lihong. For such a
Good leaders, you can't give them money directly. They will definitely not accept it.
But these good leaders all have a "weakness". They particularly like to do some very public welfare things. Especially good leaders in the education sector, they like to do things to support students with good academic performance and students from poor families.
Wang Dafa knew this very well. He knew that if he directly gave Zhou Li the money, he would definitely not want it. But if you used another method, he would definitely not refuse.
As soon as Wang Dafa said this, Zhou Lihong felt his eyes light up. After all, this kind of thing is what he has always wanted to do. And it is something he wants to do immediately. Although he also told his mayor brother before
This matter. But his brother, the mayor, has a lot of work, and he can't think about their education system every day.
And now Wang Dafa's idea is completely in line with Zhou Lihong's idea. When he heard Wang Dafa say this, he immediately smiled and said, 'Haha, your idea is very good. Since you want to do good things, I can't refuse it.
!I will use your one million funds to set up a Dafa Education Fund. Let more outstanding students benefit from it, enter university, and become the pillars of the country.'
'Thank you, Director Zhou. It would be best if you could think like this. I don't have to worry about the money being used in improper ways. Then you can accept the money first, and I will entrust Director Zhou to help me solve the problem.
.I really want to make some contribution to the education of our Qingyang City.
You said that if this person has money, he can't spend it arbitrarily. I have always wanted to study hard since I was a child. But because my family is poor, I have no chance to go to school. Now I can use my ability to help those families who are in difficulty and study hard.
Good students make a little contribution. This is also some emotion from my heart. I am willing to use my money to help these good students who study well but cannot afford to go to school. In this way, my heart will be more balanced. Because
Whenever I see that these students can study at school with peace of mind because of my support, and finally get into a good university, that is the happiest thing for me.'
Wang Dafa is really eloquent. He looked at Zhou Lihong and said these things. After he said it, Zhou Lihong was also a little moved. I felt that Wang Dafa was really a good guy.
‘Okay, Boss Wang, then I will accept the money from you first. I will fulfill your dream. I will definitely set up a Dafa Education Fund.’ Zhou Lihong looked at Wang Dafa and said seriously.
"Thank you, Director Zhou. Thank you very much." Wang Dafa also pretended to be very touched.
'Boss Wang, why are you so polite? It should be me saying thank you! You have made such a great contribution to our education, and I, the education director, should also say thank you.'
Zhou Lihong looked at Wang Dafa and said with a smile.
"Director Zhou, look at what you said, it doesn't matter if I pay this little money, don't say thank you to me." Wang Dafa looked at Zhou Lihong again and said politely.
'Okay, Boss Wang, if there's nothing else, I'll leave first. I'll help you do this right away.' Zhou Lihong is also a person who works vigorously and resolutely. What he wants to do, he also wants to do.
Going to do it right away!
‘Okay, then I’ll trouble Director Zhou.’ Wang Dafa was still very polite.
In this way, Zhou Lihong and Wang Dafa exchanged pleasantries for a few more words, then took the one million bank card Wang Dafa gave him and left.
Looking at Zhou Lihong's hurried back, Wang Dafa showed a smile on his face. Seeing that Zhou Lihong was leaving, he quickly got up and sent Zhou Lihong to the door. Then he returned to the house.
'Haha, that's great. This Zhou Lihong is not that difficult to deal with after all! I took the million right away. I think you, old guy, are just a self-serving guy. Pretend to be a good person in front of me.
, who knows what you are doing with the money!'
Wang Dafa saw that Zhou Lihong had accepted the money. He wondered if this Zhou Lihong was doing one thing on the surface and another on the other. He pretended to be a gentleman on the surface, but who knew what he was thinking in his heart.
Besides, after Zhou Lihong came out of the hotel, he drove to the city hall because he had something to say to the mayor’s brother!
Soon, Zhou Lihong came to the city government again. He went directly to the mayor's office.
Mayor's Office.
‘Brother, what’s the matter with you?’ Zhou Lihong arrived at the mayor’s office. Zhou Liming was sitting at his desk looking at some documents. When he saw that his elder brother was here, he asked politely.
‘Mayor, look what this is!’ After Zhou Lihong said that, he took out the one million bank card Wang Dafa gave him and put it on the desk in front of the mayor’s brother.
When Zhou Liming saw that it was a bank card, he felt a little strange. Then he picked up the bank card and looked at it again.
"Brother, what is this?" Zhou Liming didn't know how to ask for a moment. He asked a very untechnical question.
‘Mayor, isn’t this just a bank card? Can’t you tell?’ After hearing what the mayor’s brother said, Zhou Lihong still wondered, does the mayor’s brother still not know that this is a bank card?
‘I know it’s a bank card. I’m asking you, where did you get this bank card? Is there a lot of money on it?’ Zhou Liming put the bank card on the desk again.
"Wang Dafa sent it to me. There is one million in it." Zhou Lihong said in a very relaxed tone.
‘What, Wang Dafa gave it to you. Why did he give you one million?’ Upon hearing what his elder brother said, Zhou Liming became a little curious.
'I don't know what he wants to do. He first said it was because his son had a collision with me, and then he wanted to give me some money as compensation! But I said, my health is fine and I don't need him at all.
compensate.
He saw that I didn’t want his money. He then said that he would donate the money to the Education Bureau. He wanted me to set up a Dafa Education Fund and make some contributions to the education of our Qingyang City. So,
He plans to invest one million to set up a Dafa Education Fund to reward students with excellent scores in the annual high school entrance examination and college entrance examination. In addition, he also wants to fund some students in the city who are from poor families but have excellent academic performance.
Students, let them go to high school and college for free." Zhou Lihong looked at his younger brother, the mayor, and talked about what happened between him and Wang Dafa before.
'Oh, you mean, this Wang Dafa wants to contribute to the education of our Qingyang City! Okay! If that's the case, then invest this million into the education of our Qingyang City!
'
Zhou Liming understood what Wang Dafa meant after listening to his elder brother's words. In Qingyang City, no one knew Wang Dafa's character better than Zhou Liming.
