Chapter 1792 Charity with no return

I've been busy until the evening.

Winnie has marked all the ginseng positions, and it feels that its nose is frozen to the point of being sniffed. The brown bears in Kodiak Island are different from polar bears, and they don’t have such small noses.

Finally, I found that only two pounds of honey was a loss to my grandma's house. I stared at my master with an unhappy expression. It was not until Han Xuan agreed to give me more and I was satisfied. I couldn't continue to stay and hid in the car to avoid the cold.

The snow had stopped at noon, and it started to snow again in the evening, which was even heavier than in the morning. Some snowflakes could reach about one centimeter in length.

More than 100 people cleared out only about 1,200 ginseng in the afternoon. Considering the terrain covered with ice and snow and the frozen land, the efficiency was pretty good. Dad Han was covered in snow. At this time, he was panting and put down his shovel and moved out a lump of soil. He could see the dried ginseng leaves on it.

He looked up and looked around, shouting loudly to the employees around him: "Please sort it out, take back what you dug today, and then wait until the snow stops before continuing!

It’s almost dark, so I’ll go home to have dinner. Don’t rush to collect them all. Check the weather tomorrow and decide whether to dig or not. Make a mark and don’t be found at that time!

It seems like it’s another heavy snow! Go back before the road is sealed!"

Many people replied that they knew, and they were unwilling to continue working in such weather. They would be exhausted after being busy all afternoon and morning, and they just wanted to go back to their warm home to rest.

Martinez walked over in the snow at this time and said to Han Xuan and Dad Han, "You guys go home first, otherwise it will be difficult to leave later."

"Well, let's go first. I called Patton just now. He would bring some people to help. It's okay under the snow. These ginsengs are now dug out. If they are not transported back in time, they will be frozen."

"I know, let them transport it to the roadside first and find a few cars to take it away..."

When I came, I didn't have the energy to walk at this moment, especially Anya and Isabelle. Women were suffering from physical strength. After waiting on the side of the road for a while, the bodyguards at home drove a few Hummers, but Winnie couldn't get in and ran home with the convoy with ***. It was a rare exercise.

When he returned to the warm home, both Han Xuan and the animals breathed a sigh of relief. The feeling of his body being almost frozen quickly disappeared. He roasted the fire by the fire for a while. After his body became warm, Han Xuan came to the sofa and turned on the TV.

Anya has fallen in love with cooking recently. Fortunately, she is quite talented and cannot compare with those chefs, but at least it will not be difficult to swallow. Isabelle went back to her room to rest, and she planned to lie on the bed.

Grandpa was reading a book, holding a cup of black tea at his hand, and enjoying his vacation quietly. Fat Ding was lying next to him as a doll, shrinking into a ball like a plush ball, and was already asleep.

Han Xuan looked at his grandfather and asked, "What book are you reading?"

"The book I found in your attic study, "Song of Ice and Fire" published by Bantam Book Company a few years ago, is very interesting. I spent an afternoon reading two books, and it feels suitable to be filmed into a TV series."

Guo Muzhou didn't even raise his head. After answering, he picked up the cup and drank a sip of black tea. Maybe he felt it was a little cold, so he put down the book and added some hot water himself.

Han Xuan looked at him and told: "I have read the first book, but the author has not finished writing it yet. I plan to wait until I finish writing it all, and it is very popular.

The adaptation rights of this book can be bought. I think it should be quite a market. The popularity of the books proves that readers like the content, and it will be guaranteed to a certain extent when filming a TV series."

"Well, now we do like to adapt directly, such as those books you wrote, "Harry Potter", "Resident Evil", "Pirate Legend", needless to say, even that autobiography can be adapted into a movie.

How about it, do you want me to find a young Chinese to play the plot of you growing up when you were a child? You will be the one who will play it yourself?"

There are quite a lot of movies adapted from the real deeds of celebrities. They have box office appeal and easy to prepare scripts. The investment is generally not large.

Han Xuan felt it seemed quite interesting, lazy and stretched his body, and smiled and said, "Okay, then how much is the salary you are going to give me?

It costs about 20 million US dollars, which is similar to other first-line actors. In addition, my portrait rights fee is also paid. Just make up for me and give me 30 million US dollars.

I donated directly to my charity foundation. By the way, grandpa, do you think my behavior of donating condoms to some African countries seems stupid?

A total of 100 million were invested free of charge, and it has only been less than half a year. Recently, the World Health Organization told me that it was gone again!"

This sentence successfully attracted the old man's attention. After thinking for a moment, he nodded and told Han Xuan: "It's indeed a bit stupid, and the effect can be minimal.

The reason for the spread of diseases in their place is mainly because of conceptual problems and lack of attention to health. It is said that even if some people know that they have HIV, they still do not pay attention to their private lives. In addition, the lack of testing measures has led to the rapid spread of this disease.

Some Africans even think that even if they are sick, they can survive for ten years. So why not be so carefree? I think it is more effective to promote the horror of this disease than to distribute condoms for free."

"It's still effective. Although it didn't meet expectations, the money was at least not in vain.

We have jointly with the World Health Organization to carry out AIDS prevention and control activities in some African countries and have achieved some results.

For example, in Senegal and Uganda, two countries that are under special care, the spread of AIDS has been successfully reduced. The infection rate of AIDS in adults in Senegal has dropped from nearly 10% two years ago to 8%.

The HIV infection rate in Uganda was about 15% three years ago, but now it has dropped to 11%, and some areas have even dropped to within 10%. This proves that African countries can make a difference in preventing and controlling AIDS.”

Han Xuan then added: "But the cost of doing things is a bit high. The average annual expenditure is about 400 million US dollars, but I can't get any rewards except reputation.

This is a treatment method that does not cure the root cause. It is impossible to develop antibodies or drugs that effectively treat HIV in a short period of time. You need to make money in some way to ensure sustainable treatment. Otherwise, based on the situation there, it would be a bottomless pit that can drag me down.

The expenditure within ten years, at least more than $15 billion, is mainly a problem of local people's concepts. The level of education is far lower than the world average and it takes a long time to change."

"The Nobel Prize selection agency does not award you a peace prize. I am really sorry for your efforts. Don't take too much steps. Take your time. One country will solve it from one country to another. After a certain stage, other countries will also be affected.

Rather than imposing ideas on them, let them learn from their neighbors... Although it is difficult to do, it is at least better than not doing it. No one can deny your credit, which will bring you actual rewards in the future."

One hundred and fifteen billion US dollars, even for a country, is not a small number. Now that Han’s family is big and big, it is good for them to distribute some of the money at the right time. Moreover, the charity foundation has stipulated at least the amount needed to be used in the charity industry every year.

Neither Guo Muzhou nor Mr. Han said anything about Han Xuan's big money-burning behavior. It was hidden under the amount of $15 billion. No one said anything about the behavior of funding poverty-stricken areas in China every year.

Charitable donations of this scale far exceed the scope of "showing". People know that Han Xuan really wants to do something to change the world through his own abilities, which reflects his sense of responsibility as a senior rich man.

"I also think we should slow down and focus on governing several countries. Uganda and Senegal are the first ones. Unfortunately, there are always turmoil in some areas over there. Sometimes, just after the negotiations are made, the entire political arena has changed.

My reputation is not easy to use there. It has improved a lot in the past two years. I plan to help countries with stable situations first. Prevention is always to treat the symptoms but not the root cause. It is the most urgent thing to develop new drugs as soon as possible.

Recently, an executive from the charity foundation suggested that I acquire the British SSL Group and Japan’s Okamoto Corporation. They think this business can bring profits in the long run like KFC and McDonald’s. I think it’s not very nice to spread and haven’t agreed yet..."
