Rebirth of the Strongest Tycoon

Chapter 899 Actions of the Continent

It seems that the sky is beautiful. On October 10th, the sky is clear and the breeze is flowing from time to time. It seems to be a good day for outdoor activities.

Although the groundbreaking ceremony was scheduled to start at 10 o'clock, guests arrived before 8 o'clock, and before the ceremony started, they visited the school on their own.

"President Wang, you are welcome!"

The Youth Square on the campus was used as a temporary parking lot. Xia Yu, Wang Gengwu and others were there to greet the guests. When two more people came out, Xia Yu warmly greeted them and shook hands with them. Then he focused his attention on the older people. on the body.

The person who came was Wang Ping, the first director of the Xinhua News Agency's Xiangjiang branch.

"Mr. Xia, congratulations!"

"The completion of Jiuding University will benefit the country and the people, great work!"

"Hehe, it's not worth mentioning. What you take from the people should be used for the people. As an entrepreneur, you have to take some social responsibility."

Xia Yu waved his hand and said with a light smile.

After that, he said apologetically: "President Wang, I'd like to apologize to you first. I was still in the United States on October 1st, and I really couldn't find the time to attend the National Day banquet held by your club. ."

Wang Ping hurriedly shook his head and smiled and said, "Mr. Xia, you're out now, your career is booming, how many people depend on you to support, of course, career is more important, there will be some after the banquet, not to mention that I have already received gifts from you on National Day. The flower basket is very important!"

Xia Yu smiled and asked, "President Wang, are you free in the morning?"

Wang Ping raised his brows slightly and said without hesitation, "Mr. Xia, as long as you say a word, I will be free anytime."

This is really the case. Xia Yu is the number one important person in Xiangjiang who has an account on it. His main responsibility is to do a good job in liaison work, and it is his wish to have more interactions with Xia Yu.

Although Xia Yu knew this, Wang Ping's words made him feel very comfortable. He hurriedly smiled and said, "Yo, President Wang, what you said made Xia terrified."

"How about I talk to you in detail after the ceremony?"

"no problem!"

"President Wang,

Please go in with them for a short rest, I won't be able to leave for the time being, so I won't accompany you. "

"Understood, you are busy first, I will go around."

...

Next, people came from time to time, not only the bigwigs from the political and business circles of Hong Kong, but also many bigwigs from Omen and Southeast Asia.

Not to mention scholars in the educational field. The foundation stone laying of Jiuding University is a major event in the educational field of Hong Kong, and they naturally want to come to congratulate it.

The guests from the education sector were received by Wang Gengwu, and the guests from the political and business sectors were received by Xia Yu, the chairman of the university, and two university directors, Bao Yugang and Huo Yingdong.

As for other honorable directors such as Li Jiacheng and Li Zhaoji, Xia Yu did not ask for them and let them play freely.

At about 9:30, except for a few who said hello and were in a hurry, they only sent flower baskets, and other guests who received invitations were present.

At ten o'clock, the groundbreaking ceremony was held on time. As the Governor of Hong Kong, MacLehose gave the platform of Jiuding University and offered his sincere blessings. The completion of Jiuding University is inseparable from his strong support, which is also his political achievement.

Jiuding Satellite TV broadcasts the whole process live, and the real situation of Jiuding University is watched by thousands of households through satellite signals.

As Jiuding University is a place of education, Xia Yu did not arrange for any fancy performances at the ceremony, but it was shocking enough that a well-known person in the political, business and educational circles gave speeches and blessings to Jiuding University.

Especially at the back, Wang Gengwu announced the use of funds and the balance, and announced that Jiuding University established a special Jiuding University Foundation, and put all the remaining endowment funds and future financial assets under the Jiuding University Foundation. The goal is to avoid idle funds. , make full use of funds to create long-term investment returns to support the education and research of Jiuding University.

This model does not exist in the current mainland, but it is very popular in Europe and the United States. Almost every university has a special education foundation.

Just like in later generations, the total scale of assets managed by the Harvard Education Foundation is as high as more than 36 billion US dollars. Harvard University can have such a high level because it has never been short of money, and all kinds of hardware and software are top-notch. ! All kinds of research are well funded!

Therefore, when Wang Gengwu announced, everyone present applauded and congratulated, and to show support, MacLehose also stood up on the spot and donated half a year's salary to support Jiuding University.

MacLehose took the lead, and many guests supported it, especially the big businessmen who made their shots more and more generous.

At the end of the donation, the chairman Xia Yu donated another 100 million Hong Kong dollars, and handed the check to Wang Gengwu on the spot.

I believe that after today, Xia Yu's reputation for being charitable and devoted to education will not escape!

According to statistics on the spot, the donation amount received on the spot was as high as 263.2 million Hong Kong dollars.

When Wang Gengwu read this number out, there was thunderous applause, and they were all shocked by this number.

In particular, the presidents of Hong Kong University and the Chinese University of Hong Kong have red eyes and envy in their hearts.

Before the establishment of the school, Xia Yu directly donated 100 million Hong Kong dollars, Huo Yingdong and Bao Yugang donated 50 million Hong Kong dollars each, plus the donations from other business leaders, Jiuding University was established at the beginning of the school. 370 million Hong Kong dollars in capital.

Now another 263.2 million Hong Kong dollars!

In comparison, the research and education funds received by Heung Kong University and the Chinese University of Hong Kong from the Hong Kong government each year are only 20 million yuan each, and this number has been collected in the past two years. Jiuding University has received more donations than they have received in ten years. Thinking of this The presidents of the two universities were heartbroken, and then felt a strong sense of crisis.

Although there is no shortage of money, Jiuding University has not officially recruited students, but it has already shown a huge threat.

At the same time, the two of them focused their attention on Xia Yu in the middle, and then they looked at each other and couldn't help but smile bitterly.

After the foundation laying ceremony, Xia Yu also arranged a luncheon in the school cafeteria. Except for some people who left in an emergency, many people stayed and cherished this rare opportunity to broaden their contacts.

It was after two o'clock in the afternoon that the guests gradually dispersed, and Xia Yu invited Wang Ping to the chairman's office of the university alone to drink tea.

"Mr. Xia, your foundation-laying ceremony this time was too successful. After today, the name of Jiuding University will be resounding throughout Asia! Your reputation for being passionate about education will spread all over the world!"

Thinking of the heavyweight guests at the groundbreaking ceremony in the morning, as well as the huge donations and Xia Yu's generosity, Wang Ping said with emotion.

Compared with the groundbreaking ceremony this time, he remembered the National Day banquet held by Xinhua News Agency ten days ago. The gap between the two was like a gulf. If so many people came to the National Day banquet, he would be so happy that he couldn't sleep for a few days.

But he was just thinking about it. He also knew that Xia Yu was the only one who could have such a big influence in Xiangjiang.

Xia Yu said with a smile: "I can't imagine that it is resounding in Asia. It's enough to be able to make a name for myself in Hong Kong Olympics and Southeast Asia. You don't have to worry about dissatisfaction with the enrollment."

Wang Ping laughed and said: "Mr. Xia, you are really joking, but I saw the expressions on the faces of the two presidents of Hong Kong University and the Chinese University of Hong Kong when they approached President Wang after the celebration. It was a complicated expression, both envy and worry. , with your strong support, Jiuding University will surpass these two established universities just around the corner."

Xia Yu smiled helplessly: "President Wang, you think highly of me and Jiuding University. The two presidents of Hong Kong University and the Chinese University of Hong Kong are trapped in the problem of education funding, which is also the only one of Jiuding University. Advantages, but education, pay attention to the combination of soft and hard, I can spend money on hard power, but in terms of soft power, Jiuding University is far behind."

"Now Jiuding University has a huge shortage of teachers. I'm having a headache right now, and President Wang is also worried about it."

Wang Ping frowned slightly, his smile narrowed, and he pondered for a moment to comfort him: "Mr. Xia, what you said is reasonable, but there is no way to do this, and I won't be in a hurry for a while."

Xia Yu took the conversation with a slight smile and said, "So no, I'll find you."

Wang Ping looked at Xia Yu in a bit of astonishment, frowned, and asked in confusion, "Mr. Xia, please tell me straight, if I can help, I will definitely do my best."

Xia Yu said with a smile: "You don't need to be too troublesome, I just hope you can help me with a message. I hope Jiuding University can cooperate with well-known universities in the mainland such as Tsinghua University and Peking University, and ask the mainland to help support some high-level professors."

"There are not many talents in the small land of Xiangjiang, but the mainland is full of talents."

After hearing what Xia Yu meant, Wang Ping's brows immediately stretched, and he nodded without hesitation: "It's no problem, I'll report to the top as soon as I get back, and I'll tell you as soon as there is any news."

That's what he said, but Wang Ping was sure that the above would definitely agree.

The above is the request of Xia Yu, but Xia Yu hardly speaks, even if he speaks, it is beneficial to the cooperation of the two parties, and he does not owe the mainland's favor, which makes people a little worried.

Now it is rare for Xia Yu to ask for help. It is still cooperation in the field of education. It is not difficult for the mainland, and it can effectively expand the mainland's influence among the elite intellectuals in Xiangjiang. It is difficult for the mainland to find such an opportunity. Opportunity turned away?

Xia Yu also considered the probability of the mainland agreeing, so he said with a smile: "Then I will trouble President Wang, please worry!"

"Should be!"

Wang Ping said with a smile.

After chatting briefly, Wang Ping suddenly said to Xia Yu, "Mr. Xia, there is something I want to inform you in advance."

Seeing Wang Ping's solemn expression, Xia Yu raised his brows slightly and said, "Please speak!"

Wang Ping pondered for a moment, as if he was fighting the draft, and then said solemnly: "On October 8, the above meeting passed a decision, and it has been officially followed, but the document has not been released to the public yet."

Xia Yu's pupils shrank, he paid attention to it, and waited quietly for the next paragraph.

Wang Ping went on to say: "The above has decided to open the financial industry to the outside world to a limited extent, allowing foreign banks to set up business institutions in the four special zones of Pengcheng, Xiamen, Zhuhai and Shantou to engage in foreign exchange financial business."

"And the first batch of places has been determined, there are only three!"

Xia Yu was greatly surprised that the mainland moved so quickly!
