Rebirth of the God-level Xueba
Chapter 520 Please Ambassador
readx; In order to stabilize Yang Rui and also to settle the matter, Baldwin asked someone to send money after the welcome meeting at the embassy was over.
US$150,000 is a bit too much for Coca-Cola China, but it is nothing for Coca-Cola headquarters.
Furthermore, the nature of academic donations is different from commercial expenditures, and the government has a much better reputation, not to mention tax exemptions. For big capitalists, paying taxes with money is really not as good as donating by themselves.
In the same year of 1984, Rockefeller’s grandson donated 1.6 million US dollars to his Institute of American Studies, and his donation to Harvard University’s Center for American Studies was even more, with an initial payment of 1.5 million US dollars, and then guaranteed in the next few years , donating $10 million.
As a result, Harvard University invited nearly 50 world-class scholars in American studies at one go, and their American studies rose from scratch to the world's top level in an instant.
The power of money is opened in the right way, and it is powerful enough to make people despair.
In China, Peking University is actually a rich school. Compared with local colleges and universities, Peking University is simply rich and exaggerated. The budget listed for the library alone is even less than the book purchase budgets of all universities and research institutions in many provinces combined.
Peking University’s library has always purchased foreign language books and foreign periodicals, which require foreign exchange. In the local area, at the beginning of the reform and opening up, many universities did not even have the funds to purchase Chinese books, so what about foreign books.
However, the sudden entry of 150,000 US dollars still shocked Peking University.
This is not a regular project, let alone a formal funding approved by the state.
No matter how much Peking University spends in a year, the extra money makes people smell like living money.
Academician Cai, as a member of the Faculty of the Academy of Sciences, is in charge of the entire Department of Biology, and gave Yang Rui all his living money, which is 600,000 RMB, which is only 70,000 US dollars in the black market. The point is not necessarily that much.
In addition to Professor Cai, other departments will inevitably have their own expenses.
In last year's budget meeting, the money was out of control. Professors and leaders who had a good relationship with the administrative staff in the office, either called or came to inquire about the situation.
They are not going to make money, but it is also great to be able to exchange RMB for some foreign exchange.
The busy atmosphere in the office,
Continued into the afternoon.
When he was about to leave work, a student timidly found the office and signed up, "I am Sun Ruyue from the Department of Biology. I would like to ask, a sum of money has arrived in our laboratory, but it seems that the call has not been sent?"
The noisy office suddenly fell silent.
"Which laboratory do you belong to?" Zhang Jianxun, the deputy director of the school office, stood up from behind the desk with a dignified face.
"It's from Yang Rui's research group in the Tang Concentrated Laboratory of the Department of Biology." Sun Ruyue signed up in a low voice.
Zhang Jianxun nodded: "You said that a sum of money was credited, do you have the credit card?"
Sun Ruyue said dumbly: "No. However, there is a total of 150,000 US dollars. It is impossible for someone to have the same amount."
"Then just wait, today's account has not been processed yet."
"Okay." Sun Ruyue didn't dare to argue, and left cautiously.
Zhang Jianxun nodded and returned to his desk.
A night of turmoil.
The next day, Sun Ruyue went to the office to inquire again, but Zhang Jianxun kicked him out, still in a few words, and said: "You go and ask Yang Rui to come over."
Sun Ruyue went there in dismay and told Yang Rui about it.
Yang Rui sat without moving, continued to direct the experiment, and said after a while: "Call Baldwin."
"This is our school's business. Is it useful to find foreigners?" Sun Ruyue was very worried.
"I don't know if it's useful or not to seek foreigners. I know it's useless for me to go, and maybe the relationship will be completely deadlocked." Yang Rui has never had a good impression of administrative officials, and he has no trust.
Sun Ruyue hesitated, and said, "Can I find the head of the department? Or Professor Tang?"
"It's not easy for them to come forward." Yang Rui shook his head. The amount of 150,000 US dollars has entered the public account again. It is normal for some people to have ideas. There are many researchers who will not have money in future generations. Fortunately, they generally do not owe debts. , so not many jump off the building.
However, looking at it from another perspective, there is nothing to worry about such a person with so much $150,000 and an idea.
Yang Rui was doing the work at hand, and said: "The common people are afraid of officials, and officials are afraid of foreigners. It's been like this since ancient times. It's better for Baldwin to come forward. You go and make a call. Listen to me."
"But that Director Zhang is still waiting for you to see him."
"The director of the neighborhood committee is also the director, so don't worry about him." Yang Rui just didn't want to have a conflict with the administrative cadres in the school. This kind of thing is not good. The other party just showed greed because of ignorance. Yang Rui believed it and let him see If it comes to the teeth, the other party can also be an elegant and talkative beautiful official.
Sun Ruyue had no choice but to call obediently.
Calling now is not as simple as dialing a number. Manual transfers may not necessarily be transferred once. If the line is occupied, the wait is often more than half an hour.
In the afternoon, wait longer.
It was almost time to get off work when Baldwin's voice came from the phone.
"Yang Rui, Yang Rui!" Sun Ruyue was so excited that he was about to fall asleep and shouted excitedly.
"Mr. Baldwin." Yang Rui took the phone over.
"Mr. Yang Rui, is there any question?" Baldwin was somewhat uneasy, for fear that Yang Rui would go back on his word.
The afternoon is also the time when scientific research dogs submit the most experimental questions. Yang Rui looked at the documents in his hand while reviewing them, and said at the same time: "Mr. Baldwin, I haven't seen the funds you mentioned have been included in the account."
Baldwin was startled: "Impossible."
On the other end of the phone, Baldwin immediately stood up, covered the receiver, and asked the secretary to check.
Yang Rui said "En" and said, "I don't believe this happened either, but I don't think there was any special explanation when you transferred the funds into the Peking University account."
"I made it clear that it's funding for your joint laboratory."
"But our joint laboratory has not been approved yet... All in all, your money may be withheld." Yang Rui's tone did not sound like his own money was being withheld. In fact, what he was talking about was Baldwin's money .
Baldwin said in a deep voice: "That can't be done."
"Of course not. I hope to see the money in a few days."
Baldwin fell silent, and said after a while: "Policy risks are unknowable risks..."
"At this time, I think it is a good time for Mr. Heng Anshi from the United States to come forward."
Baldwin repeated Heng Anshi before he realized who it was, and couldn't help saying: "Mr. Ambassador, please come forward, if it's an economic dispute..."
"In China, economic means are often unable to resolve economic disputes, especially when government officials are involved. Peking University is a public university, and administrative officials are equivalent to government officials. You can ask Mr. Heng Anshi for detailed advice on this issue, but I I feel that asking Mr. Heng Anshi to come forward is the most appropriate and quick way."
Baldwin recalled a bit, and said: "You need Ambassador Heng Anshi to come forward."
"There are also factors in this aspect." Yang Rui said without hesitation: "China's university system has just been restored. It may not be the first case that a student has received hundreds of thousands of dollars in funding. It may not be the first case, but it is still very rare. Mr. Heng Anshi came forward If so, it will give me a lot of convenience."
"So you asked me to introduce Mr. Heng Anshi to you."
"Yes, he has met me. It may be easier to ask him to come forward now."
"It's a pity that Ambassador Heng Anshi is a professional diplomat." If they are non-professional diplomats, such as Bush Sr., they tend to be kind to others and are very friendly to multinational companies, because they use the post of diplomat as a springboard.
Professional diplomats are not so easy to talk to managers of multinational companies.
However, Yang Rui believes that Baldwin has a lot of solutions, but the sacrifices are different.
Therefore, Yang Rui laughed twice on the other end of the phone, and said: "Now that we have reached this point, you can also ask Mr. White to write a letter, which can also be of great help."
Baldwin said dissatisfiedly: "You really have a lot of requests."
"I owe you a favor, an American-style favor." Yang Rui said.
Baldwin was immediately happy, and said: "You know what American favors mean, I will come back."
"Don't look for one that is too difficult, I will return it to you." Yang Rui paused and said, "The bigger the momentum, the better, I am not short of money for the time being."
He has never seen Director Zhang stuck in his office, and he is not interested in knowing that there are too many people who call themselves or honored directors in a university, and he is just the one he just happened to meet.
For Yang Rui, he hoped that after this time, he would never meet Director Zhang, Director Liu, and Director Li again.
Baldwin hung up the phone cheerfully and began to think about his words.
He doesn't like the way Yang Rui writes papers, but this doesn't prevent him from understanding Yang Rui's strength.
Baldwin once met a colleague of his, because he established a good relationship with a professor at the University of Indonesia, he was considered an expert in Indonesia, East Asia, and Asia, and he always occupied the right to speak in the office building because of this. In comparison, Baldwin prefers scholars like Yang Rui—yes, a scholar who frequently publishes high-end papers in authoritative Western journals, and his ability to harm Coca-Cola just proves that he has the advantage of the right to speak, at least in China , His ability is outstanding, and he understands Coca-Cola and China at the same time.
Baldwin dialed the phone without hesitation.
