Actor: Thank you.
Chapter 846 Donation
A country prospers through adversity.
I am afraid that only a nation with a long enough history can truly appreciate the weight of these four words.
Because the ethnic groups that can survive the long river of history are always particularly resilient.
At the same time, major disasters are also moments that test the organizational and cohesive power of a nation and a country.
The 08 Olympic Games is a major event that requires organizational and cohesive capabilities.
More of these can bring national confidence.
Of course, some countries can stand the test.
Some of them were found to be in bulk after a test.
Looking back many years later, especially when a certain civilized beacon country, Texas, suffered a snowstorm, this is what the mayor of Colorado said.
“Only the strong will survive, and the weak will be eliminated.”
“Disaster relief is something that only a socialist government would do.”
Don’t say that, please don’t say that...Although what this person said was unpleasant to hear, it was true.
Especially its understanding of the Western capitalist world is extremely accurate.
No one cares about the fires in Hawaii and California.
The water in Fukushima is bad and no one is fixing it.
But at the beginning of the new century, when the Twin Towers of the Beacon Country collapsed, countless firefighters, police officers, and volunteers entered the disaster site and made selfless contributions.
They too had their time when they were the shining stars of humanity.
But these people were deceived and abandoned by the top.
The higher-ups concealed the fact that the disaster site contained a large amount of toxic gas, allowing these enthusiastic people to enter the search and rescue operation without any protection.
In the following years, a large number of cancer patients appeared in this group.
The island country's famous musician Ryuichi Sakamoto was near the building on the day of the accident.
He was just around and later developed several types of cancer.
However, these people who went to the scene and should have been regarded as heroes had no way to sue, and only received a small amount of compensation, or even had their compensation cut off in the future.
The collapse of trust will lead to the collapse of the entire system, which can also explain why their disaster relief efforts are so poor.
The most powerful thing about the Lighthouse Country is that it uses Hollywood to whitewash itself.
At the same time, it will use the extremely powerful, world-leading propaganda machine to discredit other countries.
It is said that the Soviet Union deceived the officers and soldiers who went to Chernobyl for disaster relief, causing them to suffer from radiation sickness.
Although the Soviet Union is revisionist, it has never done such a thing.
It is clear that they are blaming the enemy for what they did to the Twin Towers rescuers.
It is said that Western cotton is a product of oppression and slavery.
Why don't you go back and look through that thin-covered history book of yours? How did your southern ancestors make their fortune in the early days?
That means you will be given 100 draws as soon as you go online.
Roosevelt, who truly made the Beacon Country great again, was Buffett’s father on the day of his death...the Buffett known as the God of Stocks.
His father and a group of capitalist friends celebrated in a seaside villa to celebrate the death of the American emperor who saved the country from dire straits.
Such a good person...died too late!
Because once he died, no one could limit the unlimited flow of wealth to the wealthy and privileged classes.
This caused many conflicts between the two classes.
So how to resolve such contradictions?
In fact, it is very simple. As long as the rich are willing to give up their money, everything will be fine.
But giving away money is not that easy.
“How much do you plan to donate?”
The next day, the crew gathered together in a conference room, watching the news on TV and discussing how to deal with the situation.
Wu Jing turned around and asked him.
"Look at everyone." Zhang Yuan looked around.
"It depends on whether the donation is made in the name of an individual or in the name of the crew."
"Or in the name of some other organization."
Zhang Yuan glanced around and saw that some of the crew members had sad eyes, while others were avoiding the view.
Giving away money is very difficult and not everyone is willing to do so.
"What about you?" Zhang Yuan was too lazy to care about others, and he couldn't control ordinary people, so he asked Wu Jing back.
"My part in the film is almost over."
The Kung Fu boy frowned: "So I plan to go there in person."
"Pull some supplies over to help."
"Okay." Zhang Yuan put his hand on his shoulder.
"I will accompany you as much as you bring with you, and I will let the company's driver drive with you."
"Really? That's great!" Wu Jing became excited when he saw someone supporting him.
"How about this!" Zhang Yuan clapped his hands.
"The crew must make a donation, otherwise it would be inappropriate."
"I'll set a figure and donate 100 million in the name of the crew."
"I'll pay half, and the rest will be shared according to your wishes."
There has to be someone to take the lead in everything, so let him do this kind of thing.
There are hundreds of people in the crew.
If we can't even get the remaining 50 together, then there's nothing we can do about this matter.
"Well, my leading actor is really magnanimous." Producer Pang Hong quickly applauded.
At the same time, he gave Zhang Yuan an affirmative look.
With him taking the lead, the matter will be settled.
He has the highest rank among the actors in the crew. If he doesn't take the lead, others will definitely have some opinions.
Now that we have taken over half of the task, it will be easier for them to handle the task.
Especially mobilizing other leading actors.
Moreover, this donation was made in the name of the crew, which would be good for him.
"I'll offer 5." Zhao Wei raised his hand generously, but the number he said was not very generous.
"I'll also offer 5." Brother Zhuo immediately spoke up.
At this time, everyone looked at the remaining protagonist, Zhou Xun.
Brother Xun looked around and shook his head.
“I don’t think money is the most important thing.”
"The important thing is to contribute and care about the people in the disaster areas."
“I plan to go there in person to give them encouragement and love and help them rebuild.”
Translated, it means:
I don’t want to spend even a cent.
Everyone has different personalities and experiences, which leads to different judgments on things and current situations.
Especially when starting from yourself and starting from others, the perspectives are different and the things you do will be different.
Zhou Xun has always been like this.
Zhang Yuan looked calm and was too lazy to say anything more.
Brother Xun believes in Tibetan Buddhism.
One of the reasons why Chen Kun later chose to stand on Brother Xun's side between her and his old friend Zhao Wei was that they both believed in Tibetan Buddhism.
These two have donated a lot to the temples there.
They were generous with their spending for a bare concept.
But when it comes to individuals or a specific group, they become hesitant.
After all, donating money to the temple is to increase your blessings and longevity and seek inner peace.
And the disaster victims donated money... Do I know you?
After the crew was done with it, Zhang Yuan went out and called Yang Siwei.
“Organize donations within the company.”
"In two parts, the company belongs to the company."
Donations are tax deductible, which is encouraged by the policy.
"All artists, high and low, please mobilize."
"Explain the situation to them. I will keep a record of the money they donated and will try to help them earn it back later."
"But you have to be generous at this time and never be stingy."
Public figures must understand their social responsibilities.
You have to take the lead at this time, otherwise you will easily be criticized by public opinion.
We can't be careless about such important matters.
He is not worried about people like Baoqiang and Huang Bo.
I am just worried about a few young artists who don’t earn much and might not be able to show for it.
After giving the instructions here, he made another call to the Hong Kong circle.
Ask if you want to organize an event or something.
"It's already being organized. There will be a disaster relief theme song and a party."
"It will be held in two days. Will you come too?"
Zhang Yuan readily agreed.
This activity is organized by the Hong Kong Performing Artists Association.
The leaders were Chen Long and Liu Dehua.
Otherwise, they are the eldest brothers.
Chen Long was responsible for recruiting people, while Liu Dehua rewrote the lyrics of Beyond band's "Boundless Oceans, Vast Skies" to create a theme song called "Promise".
Chen Jiashang and Zhou Xun were also invited and will go to the donation party together.
Zhang Yuan remembered that Brother Hua was the star who donated the most money this time.
Next up are Li Lianjie and Jay Chou.
Fa Ge claimed to have donated tens of millions, but the account has never been found...
I went to the capital to record songs.
More than 100 people sang a song, but no one could sing a word, they were just joining in the fun.
Liu Qianqian also went there and met him by chance.
"You plan to donate money to the Red Cross, will you go?" she turned around and asked after recording the song.
"Okay."
Donations to the gala are donations to the gala, company donations are company donations, and personal donations are personal donations.
The greater the ability, the greater the responsibility, and Zhang Yuanguang has to pay several times more.
Although there were about 100 people recording the song, not many of them were willing to pay real money to do so.
But many people are like Zhou Xun.
You can contribute your effort, but spending money means bleeding, it hurts, and you are reluctant to do so.
These days, there are a lot of people coming and going at the Red Cross Society in the capital, and the media are everywhere.
As soon as they arrived and got out of the car, they were photographed.
The association was also well prepared, with a large number of enlarged checks ready on the side.
When celebrities come, they can just fill in their names and numbers with a marker and hold it up for photos and interviews.
"How much do you want?" Zhang Yuan came to the front desk and asked Xiao Longnu.
"One million." She said calmly, "How about you?"
"Your share is mine."
"Yeah." She replied with a slight nod.
What she has given is already more than most of her seniors in the entertainment industry.
Zhang Yuan deliberately made himself as tall as her, just on par with her. There was no need to put himself above her.
The two men held up big checks and took photos, and then each of them accepted an interview.
The next day I went to the party again.
Many people from Huayi came.
But when it comes to donations, it's a bummer...
Feng Xiaogang gave 10 yuan.
Zhang Guoli only gave 10.
But Uncle Guoli also has a donation ceremony for the Railway Art Troupe, and like his, it has to be several times, so a lesser one would be acceptable.
The two brothers of the Wang family only gave 10 yuan in the name of the king.
Li Bingbing and Huang Xiaoming gave more than the boss and the director, 15 each.
Zhou Xun didn't say a word.
There are even fewer people left.
Those who would rather give up their lives than their wealth are gathered there.
Zhang Yuan looked at Brother Hua who was sitting next to him.
"What do we say?"
Liu Dehua smiled bitterly. He didn't expect that people in Huayi were so stingy.
"It's better not to surpass Director Feng and the others."
"Give me some face." Brother Hua was quite considerate.
So they donated 10 yuan each according to Feng Xiaogang's standards.
After the party, everyone went their separate ways.
Wu Jing has already driven a truck of supplies to the disaster area, and Zhang Yuan has also arranged for his driver to go with him.
He does not recommend going in person without organization at this time.
But we can't pour cold water on other people's enthusiasm.
For the party, Zhang Yuan has given out five to six million yuan in total for personal expenses, the company, and supplies.
He calculated that with his own strength, he was almost there.
Giving more will hurt the foundation and affect one's own capital chain.
Based on the total amount he gave, he is already ranked among the top 10 in the mainland entertainment industry.
Return to the crew and continue working.
Wu Jing, who had already arrived at the place for a few days, called him.
"Zhang Yuan, do you want a child?"
"You're going to give birth to a baby for me?" Zhang Yuan looked puzzled.
"No, he was adopted here."
I understood it only after he said it.
The place Wu Jing went to was not far from the famous Luohan Temple.
Next to the Luohan Temple is the Maternity and Children's Hospital.
The hospital was severely damaged and could no longer handle the delivery and care of infants and young children.
Therefore, the abbot, Venerable Suquan, opened the Buddhist door and used the temple as a temporary delivery room.
Zhang Yuan remembers that a total of 108 babies were born in this place.
This is called the number of days.
108 Buddhist beads, 108 cassocks, and 108 Arhat statues.
This number alone is very important. It is both a coincidence and a constant.
What Wu Jing meant by "adopting" does not mean taking the child home to raise.
They have parents.
It’s just adoption in name only, with money and subsidies given to help people grow.
"Okay, please order 9 for me."
9 is the largest number in Buddhism and represents great perfection.
Zhang Yuan felt that since they were destined to do so, it was not impossible. He could just follow the Buddhist rules.
It doesn't cost much to subsidize a few children.
Selling a house is enough to support a row of college students.
"Why do you say it like you're ordering milk..." Wu Jing muttered.
"Anyway, just remember it for me and say hello to them. I'll go over there in person when I'm done with my work."
"You want money? I'll transfer it to you."
"No, there's no place to spend the money here."
"Just wait for my reply."
Wu Jing put down his phone and thought to himself that this was called like-minded people.
During the few days he has been there, he has seen many people who act pretentiously.
Many colleagues in the entertainment industry also took the opportunity to show off.
He was simply too busy, helping to unload goods, serve meals, and clean the house, so he had no time to take care of the goods.
Otherwise he would have jumped up and down and cursed in the streets.
What the hell.
I remembered that Zhang Yuan bought a bag worth more than one million yuan a while ago and I grumbled for a long time.
At this moment, he did good deeds without hesitation and was generous.
Much better than those people!
While people in China are united, some people overseas are saying bad things and doing bad things.
First, Japan, South Korea, and the Western powers all claimed to send people to help.
In reality, not many people came, and most of them did not put in enough effort.
In fact, everyone knows what they want to do.
But at the same time, the amount they spend on external propaganda each year is 6-10 times that of China.
Wash one dish eight times.
Toilet water is drinkable.
Island tourists are the most civilized...
The truth is, employees peed in Yoshinoya's ice cubes.
The water is full of protium, deuterium and tritium.
Tourists from the island nation travel around the world to paint graffiti.
Whoever believes it is stupid.
They even deceive their own people.
The most typical example is the fabrication of rumors about Paul Tibbets.
This Mr. Paul is the pilot who set off a big firework during the one-day trip to Hiroshima.
Xiao Rizi said that he was so upset about the bombing of Hiroshima that he couldn't sleep all day and even suffered from mental illness.
Because of such crimes, he was discriminated against and tortured in his own army.
In fact, this man was worshipped as a hero in the Lighthouse National Army and had a successful career because of his achievements in setting off fireworks. He firmly believed throughout his life that what he did was right and never regretted it.
People are so proud of telling everyone that they helped warm up the island country.
Therefore, it is not surprising that a group of people who can deceive even their own people can infiltrate other countries when they are hit by disasters.
There are more than just this one external force taking advantage of the opportunity to cause trouble.
There are many bad practices in the entertainment industry. (End of this chapter)
