CCTV News: In Beijing, Chen Shuting brings a woman to her door.

Every time Zhong Xiaoai suffered even the slightest injustice or setback, she felt terrible.

Now that she has seen people who have worked a million times harder than herself, Zhong Xiaoai doesn't know what to say.

“Xiao Ai, what if we just give these workers relief or a job?”

"Then these workers will never be able to escape this fate!"

"The principle is actually very simple. When I was a child, my brother and I went to the river to catch fish."

“My brother always carried tools. Back then, I was young and impetuous, and I thought I could catch fish without tools!”

"But I later learned that even highly skilled people need tools to increase their hunting success rate!"

"Otherwise, trying to fish in troubled waters is something you'll never succeed at!"

Such a profound truth was expressed by Gao Qilin in such simple words.

Upon hearing these words, Zhong Xiaoai's confidence was immediately ignited.

However, she still had some doubts.

That is, Zhong Xiaoai didn't know how to tell others how to fish.

After all, doing business always involves risks, and not everyone is as lucky as Gao Qilin.

They can build a conglomerate worth hundreds of billions through their own efforts.

For ordinary people, setting up a street stall to sell barbecue is the most they can do, but for them, tens of thousands of yuan is a lot of money.

Rich people can spend lavishly; they can take out hundreds of millions or tens of millions of dollars in one go.

By constantly trying and failing, these wealthy people can afford to lose money on ten projects they invest in without any problems.

As long as one of their projects succeeds, they consider themselves to have made a profit!

But the poor are different; every penny they have is earned through hard work.

Besides, how much money a poor person earns doesn't necessarily mean how much they can save.

If you earn one dollar, you'll end up spending at least fifty cents, and the money you save is the money that truly belongs to you.

Many poor people understand this principle very well, so it is very difficult to get them to invest!

Besides, investing is risky. If you lose money, an ordinary person could lose half a lifetime's savings.

As people age, their ability to make money keeps declining!

Zhong Xiaoai understood this principle very well, but she also knew that Gao Qilin had the ability to turn the rotten into the miraculous.

Therefore, Zhong Xiaoai patiently listened to Gao Qilin continue speaking.

"Cough, cough, cough!"

Seeing that Zhong Xiaoai was a little distracted, Gao Qilin coughed a few times to attract her attention.

"Xiao Ai, I know what you're thinking. You think I'd lead these ordinary people to invest, right?"

"No way, if I did that, I'd be harming them!"

"I think if we want ordinary people to truly escape poverty and become wealthy, we, the wealthy, should first give them money!"

"To put it another way, for example, if a project requires a total investment of one million, we'll first contribute eight hundred thousand, and then have the remaining two hundred thousand raised through crowdfunding by the general public!"

"In this way, the originally huge investment was reduced to a few thousand dollars per person!"

"When this business grows bigger, when the pie gets bigger, we'll gradually increase our investment!"

"In this way, in just a few years, ordinary people will have developed an investment mindset and will know how to avoid risks!"

Upon hearing this, Zhong Xiaoai's previously somewhat confused eyes immediately lit up.

Zhong Xiaoai originally thought that leading the people out of poverty would be a huge challenge that required her to use all her skills.

But now, after hearing what Gao Qilin said, she realized that the matter wasn't as difficult as she had imagined.

Besides, a mere million is nothing to Qiangsheng Group, which has a market value of hundreds of billions.

If Qiangsheng Group could allocate several hundred million yuan each year, it could help many villages escape poverty!

Realizing this, Zhong Xiaoai couldn't help but burst out laughing!

"What do you think of my idea? Is it good?"

"Xiao Ai, our Qiangsheng Group is currently facing some problems with its cash flow."

"However, believe me, I will get Qiangsheng Group out of its predicament in a few years at most!"

"At that time, I will allocate several hundred million yuan each year to invest in hundreds of projects at a time, which will lift hundreds of villages out of poverty!"

"And as you know, most of these people who leave their homes to work in the city are farmers from the villages!"

“But nowadays, farming in the village is no longer profitable. If they could stay in the village and do something to earn money, they wouldn’t have to leave their homes.”

"Then we won't have to suffer from the oppression of these bosses anymore. At that time, Jinghai City will no longer be just a few places in our country that have become rich!"

"It's not just a large area, it's the entire country that has become rich together!"

In Zhong Xiaoai's mind, it was originally a very difficult thing for the rich to help the poor.

After all, these rich people aren't fools; they won't easily take out the money they've already put in their pockets.

Human nature is greedy; a person without money wants to be rich.

A wealthy person wants more; they simply don't know how to spell "satisfaction"!

Besides, when a person has more and more money...

That money no longer belonged to him alone; it became capital.

Countless people will be eyeing the capital in his hands; some of these people are enemies, and some are friends.

Some are enemies disguised as friends; in short, your money is no longer your money at this point!

You'll feel heartache when your money loses value! You'll be overjoyed when your money increases in value!

And being a slave to money is exactly what describes this kind of person!

Zhong Xiaoai has met countless people in her life, including many big bosses who are even richer than Gao Qilin.

However, Zhong Xiaoai, a big boss with a broad vision like Gao Qilin, only met this one person.

When Zhong Xiaoai discovered that the man she loved was such an idealistic person, she was moved to tears!

At this moment, Zhong Xiaoai even started to stutter a little when she spoke.

"To be honest, Qilin, in the past, the most common type of capitalist I've met is the one who tries his best to put all the money he earns into his own pocket."

"It's rare to see someone like you who, after making money, still thinks about others!"

"Qilin, I don't understand, why do you have such high awareness?"

Zhong Xiaoai was very curious about Gao Qilin's ideas, especially his unconventional behavior.

It's actually very illogical; once he has money, he should use it to benefit himself first, not others.

Even after Gao Qilin made money, he still thought about the workers who worked hard on the assembly line!

Zhong Xiaoai felt that this alone was already quite difficult.

Seeing that Zhong Xiaoai couldn't understand his thoughts, Gao Qilin smiled slightly at her.

"Actually, I was just thinking about myself when I was a child. Back then, I was looked down upon every day when I was setting up a stall with my older brother!"

"Those days are truly unbearable for me to recall, but looking back now, I'm actually quite grateful for those days!"

"If it weren't for the tempering I went through during that period, I don't think I would have achieved what I have today!"

"After I gained money and ability, I wanted to help more people escape the fate of poverty. In my opinion, poverty is truly a curse!"

Gao Qilin's words were not meant to be sarcastic; he was recalling his childhood memories.

His heart ached as he struggled above the poverty line, surrounded by obstacles.

Nobody respected him or his family; he had to bow and scrape to everyone he met.

At that time, Gao Qilin felt that his future was bright but he could not see it, and that the road ahead was full of hardships and he could not finish walking it.

But now that he has money, the world seems to have become a better place overnight.

Suddenly, everyone around him turned into a kind person, and everyone who saw him would smile and nod at him.

Honestly, the power of money is truly terrifying.

It can make you feel like you're in heaven one second, but the next second it can make you feel like you're in hell!

However, one cannot live without money in this life.

Although not everything that is "fixed" can be bought with money.

But Gao Qilin felt that money could buy at least 99% of things.

Of course, Gao Qilin would never tell Zhong Xiaoai these incredibly realistic truths.

He knew that Zhong Xiaoai must understand this principle; surely her parents wouldn't be so foolish as to not teach her such a simple truth.

"Qilin, can you give me a gift? I want to see a county that escapes poverty within a few years!"
