Chapter 877: Take the Land and Transform the Orphanage(1/2)

After helping Yu Qian wash a few little white horses, the two began to get busy with the evening meal.

When Li Liangjie and Wu Jin came over, they had already prepared all the dishes, including chicken stewed with mushrooms, grilled lamb chops, braised fish, Donggu meat and four vegetables. It was very rich.

Li Liangjie said: "Oh, Zhang Xiao, it's really not good, let you, a sick person, cook for us."

Zhang Xiao said: "I'm not sick, I was just a little sleepy before. Brother Jin, how are you?"

Wu Jindao: "I'm a little better than you. I only slept for twelve hours."

Zhang Xiao said with a smile: "As long as your body is fine."

Soon, the four people sat around the table and started drinking.

Wu Jin said: "I have become famous this time. Do you know that just today, my agent received more than 20 calls, all asking me to endorse products for those companies."

"I've already guessed it." Li Liangjie said: "With this earthquake, you and Zhang Xiao have become the benchmark for the entire entertainment industry."

"Zhang Xiao is a billionaire. It is impossible for advertisers to find him, so he has targeted you and wants to use your popularity and influence to promote his own products."

Yu Qiandao: "Brother, take it easy. At this time, you have to be more cautious. If there is a problem with the product you endorse, you will be completely ruined."

"Let me tell you, how many media are praising you now, how many media will despise you by then. This is the entertainment industry, it is very realistic."

Wu Jin nodded and said: "I know, so I asked my agents to reject them all and only accepted one charity advertisement."

Yu Qian nodded and said, "That's good."

Zhang Xiao said: "Let me tell you something. Today I went to the Civil Affairs Department and decided to build an orphanage outside the Fifth Ring Road of Beijing to adopt orphans from the disaster area."

Wu Jin said in surprise: "That's more than 600 children, and some of them are disabled. Brother, are you sure you can take care of them?"

"Of course!" Zhang Xiao said: "I can hire more people to take care of them so that they can go to school in the capital like ordinary children."

Li Liangjie said: "You mean you want to raise them until they graduate from college, right?"

"That's right!" Zhang Xiao nodded and said, "If this matter can be solved, my level will be different from yours in the future, because I have more than 600 children."

Li Liangjie smiled and said, "Did the Civil Affairs Secretary agree?"

Zhang Xiao said: "Not yet, but I have already called Commander Wang. Commander Wang is very supportive of my decision. Even the address of the orphanage has been chosen. It is a dilapidated and abandoned middle school."

"As long as the higher-ups agree, I will leave and start construction, and try to get those children to live in the capital as soon as possible."

Yu Qian gave a thumbs up and said: "Brother, I have never convinced anyone in my life, but I am really convinced by you."

"After the orphanage is built, Teacher Guo and I will go there and have a look. If any of those children are interested in cross talk, and if they are indeed that type of material, we can bring them into Deyunju and train them well. Maybe

He can become the mainstay of our Deyunju in the future."

Wu Jindao: "Yes, if someone likes martial arts, you can teach them from an early age, and maybe they can become a star in Wuhan University."

Zhang Xiao rolled his eyes when he heard this and said angrily: "You can pull them down! I hope that each of them can become the pillars of the country in the future, such as scientists, doctors, soldiers, etc."

"When it comes to cross talk and becoming actors, it's only those of you who are useless in studies who will take this path. But who would do this if they have better academic performance!"

Wu Jin laughed and scolded: "Fuck you, you are an actor yourself, you still have the nerve to say that."

Zhang Xiao said with a smile: "I just made one mistake and regretted it for eternity."

Li Liangjie smiled and said: "I don't know whether your mistake will lead to eternal hatred. What I know is that you have become a billionaire."

"Exactly." Yu Qian also agreed: "If you are not perfect, you may not become the richest man in the world. Don't forget, the first pot of gold you earned came from movies. Am I right?"

"Wrong, totally wrong!" Zhang Xiao said: "My first pot of gold came from Mimi. He is a typical soft-rice man."

When Li Liangjie and the other three heard this, they burst into laughter.

At this moment, Zhang Xiao suddenly received a call from Commander Wang. He quickly made a shushing gesture to the three of them and answered the call.

"Hello, Commander Wang, hello."

"Xiao Zhang, I'm very busy here, so I'll make a long story short. Don't you want to transform that middle school into an orphanage? I asked you about it, and there is no problem. The local government can even grant you the land for free."

"But the only requirement is that you must start construction immediately so that the orphanage can be put into use as soon as possible."

Zhang Xiao did not expect Commander Wang to work so efficiently, and said quickly: "No, Commander, I will pay you whatever the land costs. I don't want the problem of unclear ownership to arise in the future."

"Tomorrow morning, I will go to the Department of Education and the Department of Civil Affairs to go through the relevant procedures, and then directly find the design company and construction company to knock down the middle school and rebuild it."

Commander Wang said: "Xiao Zhang, you have to think carefully. Even if you buy this piece of land, it will not be used for any commercial purposes in the future, at least not within twenty years."

"Don't worry!" Zhang Xiao said with a smile: "Even if I go bankrupt, there will still be an orphanage there. Besides, I have donated 50 billion, do I still care about this little money?"

"Hahaha! That's right!" Commander Wang laughed and said, "Okay, you can go directly to Director Chen of the Civil Affairs Department tomorrow and he will help you handle all the procedures."

Zhang Xiao nodded and said: "Okay, thank you, Commander Wang. I'm sorry to trouble you."

Commander Wang said: "I should say thank you, great master. You have done us a big favor this time."

After hanging up the phone, Wu Jin sighed and said, "A school's land is worth at least hundreds of millions. Brother, you really don't take money seriously."

Zhang Xiao said: "The assets I control now, even if I spend 100 million US dollars every day, I will never be able to spend them all in my lifetime."

"Isn't there a saying that says, if you are poor, you can be good for yourself; if you are strong, you can help the world? Now I am helping the world."

Yu Qian asked curiously: "How much assets do you have now? Can you tell me?"

Zhang Xiao thought for a long time, shook his head, and said: "I'm really not sure about this. There are so many assets that I can't even calculate them at once."

"Let me tell you this, just a dozen times, I have earned tens of billions of dollars. The 50 billion donation to the disaster area and this orphanage are nothing to me."

"Haha, isn't it a bit Versailles?"

Wu Jin took a sip of wine and said angrily: "It's not that it's too Versailles."

"Damn, it's so irritating that people are so competitive. You were not as good as me when you debuted. In just a few years, you have become the richest man in the world. That's awesome."

Zhang Xiao said: "Not to mention, I might actually be the richest man in the world. Before the financial crisis, didn't I convert all my assets into cash?"

"Now I basically buy stocks of high-quality companies. Once the crisis is over, if nothing unexpected happens, my assets will exceed one trillion US dollars."

Li Liangjie, Yu Qian, and Wu Jin were immediately shocked and speechless.

Who would have thought that the young man in front of them who was wearing simple clothes and bragging to them would turn out to be a rich man with unparalleled wealth?

It feels crazy just thinking about it.

Yu Qian smiled and said: "Brother, it seems that you will have to worry about the successor in the future."

"What a worry!" Zhang Xiao said: "I can at least live to be one hundred and fifty years old, and I guess there will be several generations of people under me by then."

"If they want to inherit, they have to show their true ability. But if they really have that ability, then they don't want to inherit. They can work hard on their own. Therefore, my current idea is to leave 100% to my children before I die.

20%, and the other 80% will be donated.”

Li Liangjie smiled and said: "Let's not talk about whether your descendants agree or not. This will happen a hundred years later. It is still too early to consider it now."

"That's true!" Zhang Xiao nodded and said, "Maybe I will change my mind in a few years?"

After drinking and eating, the four of them chatted for a while and then left.

···

The next day, Zhang Xiao came to the Civil Affairs Department again and met Director Chen.

Director Chen said: "Mr. Zhang, I need to confirm, are you really prepared to spend money to buy that piece of land?"

Zhang Xiao nodded and said: "It seems that Commander-in-Chief Wang has already spoken to you on the phone."

Director Chen nodded and said: "Yes, he asked us to give you a fair price. After all, you are doing a public welfare undertaking."

Zhang Xiao chuckled and said, "Thank you then."

Director Chen hesitated for a moment and said: "Mr. Zhang, I have something to ask you for help. I wonder if you can agree?"

Zhang Xiao was stunned and asked in confusion: "Director Chen, what can I help you with?"

Director Chen said: "There are four orphanages in the capital, and the conditions are not very good. They originally need to be repaired after two years, so..."

When Zhang Xiao heard this, he immediately understood what he meant and asked: "How many children are there in these four orphanages?"

Director Chen said: "There are one hundred and forty-two in total. If your orphanage is suitable, can you accept them as well?"

"No problem!" Zhang Xiao said: "The worst thing is that when building dormitories, we just need to build one more building."

Seeing that Zhang Xiao agreed, Director Chen said happily: "That's great, Mr. Zhang, thank you so much."

"It's nothing!" Zhang Xiao waved his hand and said: "There are more than 800 children, more than 40 of whom are less than three years old, and more than a dozen children are disabled due to the earthquake. If you want to take good care of them, I predict

At least a hundred people are needed.”

"Director Chen, can the Department of Civil Affairs help me find some reliable staff? I don't ask for anything else. They must be responsible and caring..."

"As for the salary issue, I am solely responsible for it and I will never let them suffer."

Director Chen said: "There are more than fifty staff members in the other four orphanages. Once they are laid off, they will be unemployed. I think they can be recruited to your orphanage."

Zhang Xiao nodded and said: "This is not a problem. They work in the orphanage all year round and can get into the state very quickly. The key is the position of the dean."

"After all, there are too many children. If there are problems with management, something big will really happen."

Director Chen said: "Among the directors of these four orphanages, one is very suitable. His name is Ye Feng. He is forty-two years old. He is young and powerful and has rich management experience. He is fully capable of taking on this important task. If he has time,

You can contact him."
