Reborn in 2010, the AI in my mind is too powerful.
Chapter 288 Accumulating Merit and Doing Good Deeds Plan
Chen Yiran took a high-definition camera and filmed every part of the child from all angles without any blind spots.
On the computer screen beside her, Grandma squinted and said, "To me, she doesn't look very fair-skinned, about the same as you did when you were little. We're not mixed-race kids, so why doesn't she look fair-skinned?"
Chen Yiran glanced at her arm and said, "Maybe it's because ours has always been very fair, and we've reached our limit? Besides, this color doesn't look very healthy. The doctor said it was reddish at first, and it'll probably turn fairer as we grow up. Grandma, are you coming to America to see your grandson?"
Grandma hesitated for a moment, but Grandpa quickly said, "No, no, it's too boring staying there. Just bring it back for us to see later."
"Oh, why don't any of you want to bring the child? My mom just said she couldn't come over and didn't want to bring the child either."
Grandma pouted: "Nobody likes taking care of kids. It's so tiring. It's best to invite them over to play occasionally. Taking care of kids every day is so annoying. You earn so much money, and we still have to take care of the kids. You've earned all that money for nothing."
But have you chosen a nanny or something? You can't be careless.
"Don't worry, they were all selected from Lanai Island with rich experience. Some of them are relatives of security personnel, and their families are all on Lanai Island."
Grandpa nodded: "That's good. In ancient times, Lanai Island would be considered your fiefdom. From now on, it's best to use people from the island for important matters in our family."
Chen Yiran was a little helpless. His grandfather had recently seen a lot of news about him on Weibo, which were mostly about him being a local tyrant on Lanai Island. As a result, the whole family was gradually accepting the idea that Lanai Island was their own little kingdom.
Chen Yiran brought up the main topic: "There's something else, Grandma. My parents don't want to name me, they want me to do it myself, and I don't know what to choose. Right now, the birth certificate only lists the English name Chen Kaiwen, so you guys need to come up with a Chinese name quickly."
Grandpa thought for a moment and said, "How about we name it Chen Jian Island! Building our little island sounds good, doesn't it?"
Grandma patted Grandpa on the shoulder and said, "What a rustic name! Isn't it the same as Chen Jianguo or Chen Jianjun? We're all from that era now, and people don't use such rustic names anymore."
I think, Yiran has already earned so much money, we don't expect the child to be as successful as that in the future, just that he has a smooth life. How about we name him Chen Ping'an? We'll go to the temple later and get him a peace charm to carry, just wishing him health and safety.”
Chen Yiran thought about it for a moment and it seemed to make sense: "Then let's listen to Grandma and call him Chen Ping'an. I'll post it in the family group later. Now that this most important thing is settled, there's another thing. I told my parents before, but they were too lazy to deal with it."
I've come to ask if you two are interested in taking on some management roles at the newly established charitable foundation.
"What charitable foundation?"
"I've decided to do good deeds for you in both China and the US, as a way of celebrating your birthday. For example, in China, I'll set up the Chen Ping'an Foundation. At the end of last year, I received quite a bit of dividends from various sources."
I also received personal compensation from several other companies. I plan to allocate two parts: one part in the US, which I'll handle myself; and the remaining part in China, for medical donations. Would you two like to take charge of that?
Grandpa shook his head like a rattle-drum: "No, no, you can find someone to do it. Isn't it good enough that we have time to grow flowers and plants?"
Grandma was somewhat tempted: "I'll take a look when you've finished. I can just go and check on things regularly. I feel like this is a virtuous thing to do, something we should do. Maybe I can go to one of those meetings on TV news later. I think it's a very prestigious thing to donate money; it's a very respectable thing to do."
"No problem, it's settled then. I'll arrange for someone to handle the specific tasks. Just attend any important events that come up."
After the video call ended, Chen Yiran started playing with his son. Olson then pushed open the door and shoved him aside, saying, "You'd better be careful. If you wake him up, you'll have to call the nanny to soothe him. He's a real troublemaker; he can cry for ages."
Chen Yiran looked at Olsen's brisk steps and sighed. Some people are indeed born with good health. She had only given birth three days ago and was already walking like the wind.
"Alright, you keep an eye on him. I'm going next door to say a few words to Cook."
Cook had been waiting in a nearby room for half an hour. When he saw Chen Yiran come in, he said with a hint of resentment, "Boss, could you please be on time next time? Don't make me wait this long."
Chen Yiran apologized, "I'm sorry, I couldn't help it. His maternal grandmother insisted on video chatting with him again, what could I do? Is everything prepared by Apple?"
Cook nodded: "The final plan has been sent to your email. It's been revised according to the ideas we discussed before. Ted has confirmed that there are no legal issues, and Apple's lawyers have also confirmed that there are no problems."
Both foundations have been successfully registered, but the application for federal tax-exempt status is extremely complex and can take at least six months, or even a year.
"Heh, just register and that's it. All that talk about review time is a lie. We'll post the plan online first, and let's see which department dares to hold us back. They'll be scrambling to handle it."
Cook hesitated for a moment before saying, "Okay, I'm not an expert in running this non-profit organization, you'll see for yourself when the time comes. But I still have to say, this is truly a very, very ambitious plan."
If it is fully formed, I believe that Apple, Aurora, and the other participating investors will quickly gain the moral high ground in public opinion.
So I still have a question: could we broaden the scope of this plan? Although it's nominally a birthday celebration for Kevin, Apple can afford to spend much more. Our cash reserves have reached $180 billion, and I think we can expand the scope to more regions.
Chen Yiran thought for a moment and said, "Forget it, I can't give up on Delaware and Hawaii because I have connections with them. We're a Silicon Valley tech company, so it's normal for California to be within our reach."
Texas is a bit of a stretch, but the technological strength there is quite good. We also have a branch there, and Oracle has a very good relationship with the local government, which is why we were chosen.
Utah and Massachusetts are both states that are partners of Bain Capital.
Including more states could have negative political consequences, potentially causing a backlash and diverting our resources.
Let's do it this way. If we win over these six states, we'll have solidified our position. Besides, California and Texas are the two states with the most votes, and they belong to opposite parties. If we completely control these two states, they definitely won't dare to object after we acquire Warner.
Cook was still a little unwilling: "Okay, let's stick to the original plan then. But boss, you have to find a way to get us to spend money; we have too much cash on hand."
"Okay, I'll think about it carefully. Sigh, having too much money is a problem too."
On April 9th, Chen Yiran returned home with her child. The house had already undergone some renovations, and several nannies had moved into the annex building.
Olsen's two older sisters came and brought a bunch of clothes. The little guy, who was only 9 days old, wore a handmade suit that his two aunts had specially made for him.
Chen Yiran took a picture of Chen Ping'an with her camera. The little guy wasn't as red as before; he had become rosy-cheeked and looked incredibly cute in his little suit.
On Twitter, Chen Yiran posted this photo with the caption: "The little guy was born on April 1st. His English name is Kevin, and his Chinese name is Chen Ping'an. I originally wanted to share this good news with you all that day, but I was afraid you would think I was joking."
To celebrate this day, Apple is offering a 9% discount on all its products for the next two weeks, with students receiving a 8% discount with their student ID. Tesla is offering a $3 discount on all pre-orders. DJI is including a one-year warranty on all its products.
Of course, the birth of my child touched me. I am a super-rich man, and my child enjoys top-notch medical care, but I know that many people are struggling because of medical bills.
Therefore, Aurora Group, together with its allies, has established a RIP Medical Debt fund.
We are preparing an updated model to address many long-standing medical issues in six states: Delaware, Hawaii, California, Texas, Utah, and Massachusetts.
This model was something I came up with on a whim, and I'm not even sure if it's feasible, but I hope it can help everyone.
For details, please visit the Medical Bill Restoration Fund account, where our philosophy will be explained in detail.
After posting on Twitter, Chen Yiran quickly posted on Weibo. Most of the promotional content was the same, but the fund mentioned at the end changed to help popularize basic medical equipment in rural areas of China and help children in mountainous areas receive treatment for serious illnesses.
The two mega-charity projects immediately attracted worldwide attention.
