Time flies, and unknowingly three years have passed. Both Wang Gang and Zheng Juan have graduated from graduate school and successfully obtained their master's degrees.
Originally, the school tried to retain them, hoping to stay at the school to study for a Ph.D., but they all refused.
Wang Gang refused because he didn't have enough time and he really didn't have time to study.
Shui Ziliu and Sun rushed south to establish the company, and Wang Gang had to go to Yangcheng often to guide them.
Doing business can never be done in just one sentence, and you will encounter a series of problems during the process.
After all, Shui Ziliu has no experience. Wang Gang needs to be behind the scenes in the early stage, and he also needs to maintain the relationship in Xiangjiang.
Zhou Bingyi has been transferred to Yangcheng, where he went to the most miserable and poorest area and became a small branch secretary.
His main task is to get rid of poverty.
Nowadays, poverty alleviation in rural areas is all about crossing the river by feeling the stones. No one has experience, but there are many lessons. It is hard and tiring, and you have to bear responsibilities. Not many people want to go.
If Zhou Bingyi wanted to do his job well, he had to help Wang Gang.
Wang Gang has already experienced the 1980s and 1990s in the courtyard world, and has his own ideas on how to develop Yangcheng and how to revitalize the economy.
Besides, Wang Gang has money, so it is easy to help a small village get out of poverty.
With his help at all costs, Zhou Bingyi quickly made achievements and became the spearhead of the reform in Yangcheng, receiving many praises from his superiors.
Two brothers, Zhou Bingyi and Wang Gang, one is in politics and the other is in business. They support each other and each develops very well.
Under the guidance of Wang Gang, Shui Ziliu built two medium-sized garment factories in Yangcheng, creating a large number of jobs and becoming a key supporting enterprise.
Wang Gang did not entirely focus on the industry, but also made many gains in the financial market. The original capital of several million in hand quickly expanded many times to solve the accumulation of original capital.
Having been in business for several lifetimes, Wang Gang has too many ways to make money, and he is clinging to new opportunities. It is only a matter of time before he takes off.
Wang Gang's career is almost rosy, but Zheng Juan's has some twists and turns.
After graduating with a master's degree, Zheng Juan left school and entered a special school to teach. Only after becoming a teacher for the first time did Zheng Juan truly understand the difficulties of education.
Special schools not only educate people with physical disabilities, but also teach those who are born with intellectual disabilities.
Zheng Juan encountered many difficulties in her first year of teaching and lost more than ten kilograms in one year.
What makes her even more desperate is that the special school is not only short of people, but also short of money. The most basic desks and chairs in the classroom cannot be guaranteed.
Not to mention that there are still a large number of special groups across the country who have nowhere to relocate.
Generally speaking, private companies rarely recruit people with disabilities, and there are even fewer job vacancies in public institutions, and there are not enough positions for normal people.
After Wang Gang learned about Zheng Juan's predicament, he immediately had an idea.
"My silly wife, there is obviously a rich man around who can help you, why don't you come to me." Wang Gang smiled at Zheng Juan.
Zheng Juan smiled bitterly and said: "I also thought about asking you for help, but my teacher said that using your personal money to subsidize the school is not a long-term solution. Besides, I also know that it is not appropriate for you to use the money."
Wang Gang shook his head and said: "I can set up a charity fund, and all proceeds from the fund will be used for the expenses of special schools."
Zheng Juan asked in confusion: "How much money do you have now?"
In the past three years, Zheng Juan rarely asked about her husband's career. She only knew that he had made some money in partnership with his friends.
"My assets in the mainland are not too large, only tens of thousands, but I made 100 million US dollars by speculating in Hong Kong stocks and foreign exchange." Wang Gang said honestly.
Zheng Juan looked at her husband dumbfounded, thinking that she had just heard wrong.
"Did you mean 100 million, or US dollars?!"
Wang Gang nodded and said: "I established an investment company in Xiangjiang, specializing in financial stock investment. I have made almost 100 million in the past three years. I will use 50 million to set up a fund, and all the investment profits will be used for charity.
Consider it a good deed for our Zhou family."
Zheng Juan's mind was buzzing and she couldn't accept the fact that she was a billionaire.
"Bingkun, besides me, do our parents know about this?" Zheng Juan swallowed and asked.
"Of course I don't dare to tell my parents, I'm afraid of scaring them," Wang Gang said.
Zheng Juan patted her chest and said, "It's okay if I didn't say anything. My heart is beating so hard now. My parents' hearts must not be able to bear it."
Wang Gang said: "It's best not to tell the children. They are still young. If I spill the beans, I'm afraid I'll be in danger."
Zheng Juan nodded solemnly and said, "You are right."
Wang Gang saw Zheng Juan's careful look and couldn't help but joked: "Don't put too much burden on you, I may make more money in the future."
Zheng Juan asked with a complicated look on her face: "You make up your mind about the money! I can't help?"
Wang Gang shook his head and said: "It's not that you can't help. You will be responsible for the charity fund from now on. I don't trust others."
"Can I do it?" Zheng Juan said unconfidently.
Wang Gang said: "Don't be afraid. Of course I will find professionals to help you. Your main task is to ensure that every money goes where it should go."
Zheng Juan's face softened a lot, and she nodded and said: "Such a large sum of money needs to be watched over by someone. What if someone gets their own pockets?"
The couple discussed in the room for a long time and basically figured out the general direction of the charity fund.
In the future, the charity foundation will use its annual income to subsidize special schools. Wang Gang also plans to open special schools in various cities across the country. He has already thought of a name for the school, and it will be called "Zheng Juan Charity Foundation School".
The name is very tacky, but you can tell who opened it as soon as you hear it, and it will be easier to find someone to take responsibility for if there is a problem in the future.
On the other hand, after having a charity fund, Zheng Juan could no longer be a teacher. She could only choose to resign and concentrate on managing the charity fund to help more people.
But what Wang Gang didn't expect was that Zheng Juan was even busier at work after resigning. She was almost homeless and only cared about those poor disabled children.
Fortunately, Wang Gang's business is on track and he will stay in the capital for a long time to take care of his family.
As for the Zhou family, Zhou Rong found an accounting job in a large factory after graduation.
Cai Xiaoguang finally won over Yun Kai, proposed marriage successfully, and successfully obtained the certificate with Zhou Rong. Zhou Rong and Feng Yue moved into Cai Xiaoguang's house.
Zhou Zhigang and Li Suhua help take care of their grandchildren at home all day long. Although their life is boring, they enjoy seeing their two grandchildren growing up vigorously.
After Zheng Guangming won the championship of the first Huari Go Tournament, he started the road to dominate the chess world. He won one championship after another, almost picking up all the masters at home and abroad, and his reputation became more and more popular.
But in terms of personal life, Zheng Guangming has never gotten married, and Zheng Juan urged her many times to no avail.
Wang Gang also knew Zheng Guangming's mentality. He was worried that he would drag others down and wanted to be a bachelor for the rest of his life.
For three years, Feng Yue never mentioned marrying Zheng Guangming again. As she grew up, she gradually understood some things.
As for Ji Chun, Hao Dongmei has graduated from college and entered the hospital as an intern, focusing on obstetrics and gynecology.
Maybe because she couldn't have children herself, Hao Dongmei wanted to help others have children with her own hands.
Parents Zhou Bingyi and Hao Dongmei are very supportive of this.
Hao Dongmei's parents retired completely, and Hao Gaoguan did not pass away like in the TV series, but was raised well at home.
Sun Qianchao has also developed very well with Shui Ziliu. He is a person who can endure hardships. In addition, Shui Ziliu has always taken good care of Sun Qianchao for Wang Gang's sake.
Sun Qunchao is now the deputy director of a garment factory and has bought a house in Yangcheng. He also brought his wife Yu Hong to live in Yangcheng and returned the Zheng family's house in Taiping Hutong to Wang Gang.
Sun Qunchao's sister, Sun Xiaoning, eventually went to Yangcheng. Under Sun Qunchao's arrangement, she worked in a factory and enrolled in night school, planning to stay in the south and never go back.
When Xiao Guoqing heard about Sun's overtaking situation, he felt so regretful that he scolded his wife Wu Qian directly.
Although Wu Qian blamed herself, she did not admit her mistake. Instead, she asked Xiao Guoqing to ask Wang Gang for another job introduction.
Xiao Guoqing didn't have the nerve to do so and refused to go no matter what, so he could only stay in Jichun and work as a temporary worker.
After Wang Gang heard about it, he asked Tu Zhiqiang to introduce Xiao Guoqing to work in the kitchen of a hotel. Although the salary was not high, it was more stable and he could learn a craft.
The bathing center where Qiao Chunyan was located was closed down, and she was imprisoned for this. Fortunately, she only covered up the crime and was not directly involved. She only served a year in jail, but after she was released, her behavior changed.
The soy sauce factory where Cao Debao worked did not survive in the end, so he had to be laid off to find a way out on his own.
Qiao Chunyan and Cao Debao had no shame in staying in Jichun, so they had no choice but to go south to develop, but there was no news about them later.
Wang Gang didn't bother to inquire about their situation.
Time passes year by year, and it soon enters the nineties.
On this day, Wang Gang suddenly received a call from Zhou Bingyi.
"Bingkun, I was transferred back to Jichun City and will focus on economic construction from now on. Do you want to go back?"
After Wang Gang was silent for a few seconds, he said: "Our slap-in-the-face plan can begin."
