Rebirth of India: Superior

Text Chapter 258 Donations

On this day, Mayor Qin had just arrived at the office when secretary Xiao Liang came forward and reported: "Mayor, Yang Cheng, the deputy director of the Investment Promotion Office, seems to have something urgent to come to see you. He has been waiting outside for a long time."

Mayor Qin frowned and said: "How can I have time to see him now? I wonder if the top priority now is flood control? Investment promotion must be put later."

Mayor Qin said this because this time Heilongjiang Province, especially Harbin City, suffered the most terrifying flood since the founding of the People's Republic of China. A total of 29 provinces, municipalities and autonomous regions were affected by this flood, with the affected area reaching 318 million acres and the affected population reaching 223 billion people, the direct economic losses are as high as 166.6 billion yuan, and the indirect economic losses are incalculable.

The Northeast, especially the Black Province, has always been a place with relatively few natural disasters. Whether earthquakes, floods, mudslides, or tornadoes, the number of occurrences in the Northeast is very small. However, the floods in 1998 were also the hardest-hit area, especially in Shaklu. Harbin City, where the city is located, is one of the four areas hardest hit by the disaster. The floods once rushed to the flood control memorial tower on the riverside. Therefore, for all the leaders of the provincial government and the municipal government, flood prevention and disaster relief are now the most important tasks at hand. Even investment promotion, which used to be of great importance, now has to be ranked at the back. That's why Mayor Qin is so One thing to say.

"But Yang Cheng said that what he came to talk about today was related to flood fighting and disaster relief." Secretary Xiao Liang said.

Upon hearing this, Mayor Qin nodded and replied: "Oh, that's it, then let him in."

Within a few minutes, Yang Chengcheng walked in. Mayor Qin had no time to be polite to him and asked directly: "Yang Cheng, I heard that you have something to report to me related to flood fighting and disaster relief?"

Yang Cheng nodded quickly and replied: "Mayor Qin, it's like this. Mr. Pandit from Henghe Medicine told me that he would donate money to the victims of floods in our province."

"Oh, donating money, that's a good thing, but you can just take him to the Civil Affairs Bureau to handle this kind of thing." Mayor Qin replied casually, then thought about it, and said again: "By the way, do it for me I would like to express my gratitude to him, but the task of fighting floods is too heavy recently, so I don’t have time to visit him for the time being.”

Mayor Qin originally thought that this would be enough. Unexpectedly, Yang Cheng continued: "Mayor Qin, what Mr. Pandit wants to donate is not just a small amount. What he wants to donate is a full one million yuan." !”

"How much did you say? One million?" Mayor Qin asked in shock.

Yang Cheng nodded and said: "Yes, it is one million yuan, and it is one million US dollars!"

“One million U.S. dollars, isn’t that equivalent to eight million yuan?!” (It didn’t become 6.8 until 2010.) In fact, it’s no wonder that Mayor Qin was shocked, because at that time, although there were many people donating money and materials, most people The amount of donations was not large. First, because China’s overall economy was not very high at that time. , especially in the period of state-owned enterprise reform, so there are very few large and wealthy companies, and even fewer in the Northeast; secondly, large overseas donations are generally donated to Jiangxi, Hunan, Hubei, Zhejiang and other places. After all, my hometown is overseas. There are more Chinese people, and the disaster here is indeed more serious than in the Northeast. (I checked and found that even during the 2008 Wenchuan earthquake, there were no more than ten celebrities who donated more than one million yuan, so the protagonist’s donation of one million US dollars at this time is definitely not too small.)

Therefore, when Mayor Qin heard that Pandit planned to donate one million U.S. dollars, he was not only happy about the eight million yuan. After all, for the finance of a province, this amount of money is not a big sum; Considering the political significance, this is a foreign businessman that he has just attracted. He has just come to Harbin to invest, and he is willing to spend a lot of money to donate. What does this mean? This definitely shows the ability and charm of the municipal government, especially Mayor Qin, in attracting investment. This kind of thing is definitely worth writing about!

However, for the sake of safety, Mayor Qin still asked: "Well, Yang Cheng, based on your understanding of this Pandit, he didn't just say this casually, right?"

"Mayor Qin, don't worry, I have known this Shakru-Pandit for several years. He is a standard tycoon. Although I don't know how much property he has, it is estimated to be tens of millions of dollars." It is definitely indispensable, so this million US dollars is a big number in our opinion, but for It's really nothing to him. I remember that when India was hit by the earthquake and plague, he donated a lot of money and donated medicine. And when he told me about it yesterday, he said he had even prepared a transfer check. , all we have to do is fill in our donation account," Yang Cheng quickly defended Shaklu.

Mayor Qin nodded and said: "Well, that's good. Let's do this. You go back and tell Mr. Pandit, don't be anxious yet. I'll find a TV station here and prepare a grand donation ceremony for him. I will invite him then." Secretary Xu came to personally host the donation ceremony."

"Thank you so much, Mayor Qin. I'm going to tell Mr. Pandit the good news and let him prepare well." Yang Cheng said very excitedly.

Although Yang Cheng was very excited, Shaklu's reaction after hearing the news was very dull, because he had no other intention of donating the money, he simply wanted to contribute to the place where he had studied and worked. , and he was able to give out one million US dollars during the earthquake in India. How could he be reluctant to part with this small amount of money if something happened in his hometown? If he were not worried that taking too much money would arouse the suspicion of the Chinese government and give him If it brings some unnecessary trouble, he really wants to get a few more million.

In his previous life, Shakru also encountered this unprecedented flood, but at that time he was still young and a junior high school student, and his hometown was not seriously affected, so this natural disaster did not leave a deep impression on him. But this time he was building a new factory in Harbin, and he felt the power of this natural disaster firsthand.

ps: First of all, I apologize to everyone. Chapter 256 is locked. I am sorry for causing reading difficulties for everyone. Then I sigh that it is really not easy to write something now. I will hit a thunder if I am not careful. It really makes me depressed. I didn’t write xx**, and it’s not my fabrication. Is this the fact that has always existed? Is it interesting to always cover up the truth?

So I will simply write something positive today. This flood relief and enthusiastic donation is positive enough, right? Is the world view positive enough? If this is blocked again, I will not write it anymore......
