Chapter 481 East China Flood

From May to June 1991, shortly after the beginning of summer, 18 provinces and municipalities began to receive rainfall one after another.

At first everyone thought it was just an ordinary rainy day.

At this time, Jianghua could no longer remember this year's flood due to his vague memory.

In addition, he is currently focusing on work in the Far East, so he has no time to pay attention to matters in the mainland.

The rain is getting heavier and heavier. In 15 days, the rainfall of 1,600 mm has exceeded the entire previous years.ъìqυgΕtv.℃ǒΜ

According to later statistics, the affected crops reached 7.3 million hectares, direct economic losses were nearly 15 billion yuan, the affected population exceeded 90 million, and 2 million victims were left homeless.

Roads, bridges and other facilities required for disaster relief need to be repaired in many places.

This is the biggest difficulty encountered since the reform and opening up. At this time, Jianghua had just distributed a small dividend of 200 million US dollars in the futures market, and Regier also made more than 200 million. Of course, this is the information provided by Jianghua. Everyone in the Gulf War

They didn't expect it to be over in 43 days, which made them make a lot of money.

But the money wasn't enough to keep him warm. He had originally planned to invest it in the foundation, but the money would be useful again.

The rescue requires equipment, supplies, food and drink for 2 million people, and post-disaster epidemic prevention.

US$200 million should be just enough, but this is only for disaster relief, and more will be needed for subsequent post-disaster reconstruction.

Of course Jianghua can easily afford it, but this is impossible and impossible.

This is like Shen Wansan donating money to build a city wall. It feels like he is overstepping his authority. As a businessman, just donate some money and materials. Even if you have greater ability, he still understands that if you become a big person, you will attract attention.

However, this is also a great opportunity for Sequoia Capital to establish its image, so the US$200 million cannot be donated in his own name. It should be jointly donated by several companies, or exchanged for urgently needed disaster relief supplies.

This is probably his only selfish intention. After all, we are all ordinary people. I donated 1,200 Hope Primary Schools.

He is still boycotted by the whole people. It is impossible for him not to have any ideas. No matter how rich he is, you still get a bad reputation for donating money.

Everyone has ideas.

It just so happens that he is overseas, and the supplies and everything are well prepared, as well as transportation issues and contact with the mainland.

The last person I drank with him was the leader of the dock. The location in Pudong New Area is excellent.

The terminal can also meet the conditions for unloading, and it is very close to East China. Evergrande Group is considered a local leader here.

Jianghua's relief supplies chose to dock here.

He just made a few phone calls, and the boss prepared $200 million for this rescue.

In this era, donating 200 million U.S. dollars is a huge amount. This year's richest man just traded cans for airplanes and made 160 million yuan, and he is already called the richest man. Jiang Hua donated 200 million U.S. dollars, which is almost 1.6 billion yuan.

His mobile phone rang: "Boss, we've made contact here. When our supplies come, they will give us priority to pass. However, the disaster is very serious this time, and roads in many places have been cut off."

"No problem. Among the materials we donated this time, there are many Wuling pickup trucks. Let them transport the materials. First of all, they must be transported to the nearest city by train."

On the other end of the phone, Secretary Zheng thought for a moment and said: "Boss, are you sure you can't come over? This is a great opportunity for you to clear your name. Your reputation as a patriotic wealthy businessman will be confirmed."

Jiang Hua laughed: "Am I such a vulgar person? I only donated 200 million US dollars. It was not donated in my own name. What is there to show off?"

"It's up to you. You don't care about this anyway. I'll contact the train and the nearest warehouse first, as well as the relevant personnel. It's still troublesome to donate materials, so it's better to donate money directly."

She also complained on the phone that it was indeed troublesome, but if you donate money, you don't have to exchange it for supplies, which will waste time. Besides, donating supplies is all under the brand of your company, which can be regarded as improving the brand image.

US$200 million worth of supplies were replaced with cars, inflatable boats, food, mineral water, medicines and other supplies.

All I can say is that they are all products from my own company, so they are fast. If I buy them slowly by myself, it will take a long time.

While the rain was still falling, Jianghua's relief supplies were disembarked from Pudong and sent to the worst-hit areas via railway.

When the first freight train stopped at the station, the volunteers present saw what was on the train.

My eyes were a little moved. They were all well-known foreign brands. This train was full of urgently needed supplies.

Water, tents, food. This is also the first time that large companies such as Pepsi-Cola have donated materials after the last major earthquake was rejected. This is only the first batch. Due to limited transportation capacity, subsequent materials will arrive one after another.

"Quickly, unload the goods, the disaster area is still waiting."

Everyone worked together and quickly finished unloading the supplies, but the current transportation capacity is limited. This is the closest place to the disaster area. All the trucks have been used. There is still a big gap, and the current road condition is not good.

, the truck is too heavy and difficult to reach the front line.

But another train came from behind, mostly pickup trucks, Wuling pickup trucks.

This vehicle is known as a civilian tank. It is a fully fueled vehicle. It can be unloaded, loaded with cargo, and can run with just one driver.

This creates a spectacle. On the roads leading to various disaster areas, Wuling pickup trucks dominate the market with their superior handling, off-road performance, and their biggest advantage, their heavy load capacity.

Wuling fleets travel between disaster areas and warehouses where goods are stored.

This car has suddenly become a disaster relief star. You must know that the current sales of Wuling pickup trucks in mainland China are not good.

This car does not meet the aesthetics of Chinese people, and the price is not cheap. In the minds of the mainland, spending so much money to buy a farm vehicle is a fool's behavior. Moreover, Wuling has not established a joint venture brand with the mainland. Currently, the only joint venture is Audi.

,

It's not that I don't want to, it's because Audi cars are too successful and other cars either don't meet their positioning.

Either the market response is not good. The reason why Jianghua donated these pickup trucks is not to promote anything.

The roads are really bad now. It’s really not as easy to get some large trucks as this small pickup truck.

Jiang Hua was still mobilizing supplies at Sequoia Capital, when someone came to visit.

"Mr. Jiang, this gentleman is looking for you."

A strange Chinese.

"Hello, Mr. Jiang, I am Li Aiguo, the president of the Chinatown Chinese Federation. We also want to donate money and materials. We have not found a boat. I want to borrow your boat. We will give you money."

"Yes, you can go there with my company's goods. Forget about the money, my ship has already been paid for. Everyone is showing love."

"Then thank you Mr. Jiang!"

"It's all about showing love. It doesn't exist. Has President Li eaten? If not, let's have a few drinks here."

"Then it's better to be respectful than to obey. I'm sorry for bothering you."
