Chapter 564: A Speech on the Concept of Wealth (Four More Requests for a Monthly Pass!) )
Monday, June 27.
Handong University, counselor Zhang Wei's office.
"Donating again? And, another five million? Zhang Wei's mouth opened slightly, and he couldn't close it for a long time.
This morning, Pei Qian came to his office again and said that he would renew all the previous subsidies for poor students and donate an additional 5 million.
The last 5 million was a quota of 2,000 people, and a monthly subsidy of 500 yuan for five months was directly transferred to the campus card to ensure basic life.
From December to now, the time has just arrived, and it will be another five million.
In addition, Pei Qian has to add another five million, and it will be issued in the form of a scholarship.
Based on the current quota of poor students, 500 students with excellent grades will be screened out, and each will receive a scholarship of 10,000 yuan.
Pei Qian's goal is still the same, that is, targeted poverty alleviation, which cannot be wasted.
There are many poor people in this world, although they are also doing charity and giving money, but they play a completely different role when given to different people.
Some people don't realize that simply giving money will not change their poor fate.
For poor students, especially poor students with excellent grades, getting this money can change their lives and make outstanding contributions to this society.
Pei Qian now has 10 million charity in hand, which seems like a lot, but in fact, compared with the poor people in need of relief in this world, it can still be regarded as a drop in the bucket.
His first goal was to make sure that the money reached those who needed it most.
"Okay, Mr. Zhang, I'll leave first if it's okay."
Pei Qian came here mainly to solve the charity money, and now that the matter is settled, it is time to go back and continue to worry about how to lose money.
Zhang Yu and He Desheng shared a phone booth with Xueba to promote the Horror Hostel together, but Pei Qian was arranged clearly.
"Hey, wait, wait, wait."
Zhang Wei hurriedly stopped Pei Qian: "Wait a minute, there is still something." ”
Pei Qian: "Huh? ”
Zhang Wei smiled: "Donating money to improve the lives of poor students, of course I support it with both hands, but ...... Did you forget the lecture you said before? ”
Pei Qian: "......"
Indeed forgot.
When donating money for the first time, Zhang Wei said that he hoped to hold a lecture for Pei Qian and give the seniors a good talk about the experience of employment or entrepreneurship.
After all, in Zhang Wei's opinion, Pei Qian is a proper business wizard, and if he wants to say that he has no experience to share, he will not believe it.
But Pei Qian is also very helpless, I really don't have any experience to share!
Moreover, Pei Qian didn't want to show his face in front of these seniors, he didn't want to become a celebrity in the school, and his classmates would come to apply for jobs wherever he went.
But after all, Zhang Wei has mentioned it twice, and he has already shirked it once, so it doesn't seem appropriate to refuse again.
Pei Qian thought for a while: "That...... Or maybe not. ”
"I'll find someone to speak for me, and then I'll write the speech, so rounding up is equivalent to me going up to speak, okay."
"As for the content of the lecture......
"There's really nothing to talk about about the experience of employment and entrepreneurship. Mr. Zhang, you also know that entrepreneurship is a big accident, and my experience is basically not replicable, but it may be misleading. ”
"Employment...... Tengda is now a unified exam, and it is better to brush up on more questions than anything else. ”
"Otherwise, let's talk a little bit about these poor students, and the theme is, I hope they will make good use of the money."
Zhang Wei thought about it, and it seemed to be the same thing.
The experience of entrepreneurship cannot be replicated, and it may be misleading if you talk too much. Not to mention the experience of employment, that is the responsibility of the human resources department, and Pei Qian will not ask.
Fifteen million has been donated to poor students, although it is not much to spread over everyone's heads, but this amount of money is not a small amount.
It makes sense to give them a lecture so that they can make better use of the money, and it's more appropriate than talking about entrepreneurial experience.
Zhang Wei nodded: "Okay, then I'll arrange it, and send the time and place directly to your mobile phone when the time comes." ”
……
Coming out of Zhang Wei's office, Pei Qian called Tang Yishu first.
"Xiao Tang, help me give a lecture to all the poor students who Tengda has sponsored."
"What? Shy? No, this is the task, it must go. ”
"Manuscript? Oh, don't worry, I'll definitely send you before the speech. ”
"Okay, that's it."
After hanging up the phone, Pei Qian called Assistant Xin again.
"Help me write a speech for poor students."
"There's no requirement for the content, anyway, you can write whatever you want, and tell them about how to make good use of this wealth."
"When will it be done?"
"Tomorrow morning? Okay, then just send it to Xiao Tang directly after writing. ”
Hanging up the phone, Pei Qian was relaxed.
That's it, it's easy!
In fact, Pei Qian didn't think too much, after all, he didn't do charity for show, nor for fame, but simply to help some poor classmates, and by the way, he also spent the system's charity quota.
The only thing is to worry, for fear that individual poor students will get this money and spend it in the wrong place.
Therefore, arrange a speech to give some positive guidance to these poor students as much as possible.
Of course, the specific effect depends on how well Assistant Xin's manuscript is written.
……
……
The next afternoon.
Science Hall of Handong University.
It is the largest hall of Handong University, with a capacity of more than 2,000 people, and is mainly used for holding large-scale lectures, holding orientation parties, and performing stage plays.
At this time, all the poor students were present, and the whole synagogue was almost full, except for a few seats in the back row.
According to common sense, there should be a banner above the stage at this time, at least to point out the topic of the lecture.
However, Pei Qian's manuscript has not come out for a long time, and he doesn't know what banner is appropriate to hang.
But that's not the point after all, you just know what you're here for.
Before the lecture began, the poor students in the audience were all talking.
"Today's lecture is to talk about the concept of wealth?"
"Our view of wealth should be fine, right?"
"That's hard to say, I've also seen poor students eat steamed buns every day to buy pineapple mobile phones."
"Yes, I should talk about it. If someone uses this money to buy shoes, bags, or mobile phones, is that still a person? ”
Zhang Wei also sat in the audience, thinking to himself, this is too simple.
He originally wanted to add a few more links, after all, he donated 10 million, and it was not too much to hold a donation ceremony.
But Pei Qian sternly refused, and repeatedly emphasized that he would only make a simple speech, and not take any more steps, otherwise he would even cancel the speech.
Zhang Wei had no choice but to go with the flow.
"I don't know who Pei Qian will let him say."
"Vice President of the company? At least it has to be a human resources minister, right? ”
"Hey, strange, where is Don Jr.?"
Zhang Wei remembered that Tang Yishu seemed to be a poor student, why didn't he see it?
However, he was wondering when he saw Tang Yishu appearing from the backstage with a speech and walking to the podium in the center of the stage.
Zhang Wei: "......"
……
Tang Yishu stood in the center of the stage, looking at the crowd under the stage, and became even more nervous.
When she came here to rehearse in the morning, two microphones had an unknown malfunction, and the staff was just about to take them for repair, but they were inexplicably normal, which made people scratch their heads.
Now Tang Yishu has no other requirements, just hope that there will be no more problems with this microphone.
"Poor students, students, ......"
"Good afternoon, everyone."
Tang Yishu cautiously said the opening remarks, fortunately, everything was normal with the microphone.
It seems that a few accidents in the morning have consumed bad luck.
"Today, Mr. Pei, who donated living allowances and scholarships, was unable to attend because of his busy work, so I read out this letter to all his classmates for him, hoping to give you some inspiration."
Tang Yishu paused slightly and began to read the speech in his hand clearly.
"Hello everyone. I'm sorry that I can't be here due to my work, so I can only use this letter to convey my vision and expectations to you, and share some experiences about life. ”
"Maybe a lot of people think that I'm going to talk about how to use the money in your hands."
"Maybe some students will worry that some people will get the money from the scholarship and buy something that has no practical meaning and can only enhance their vanity."
"But, everyone understands the same truth, and I don't want to talk about it anymore."
"I want to look at the concept of wealth from a different angle."
"That is, what is the real wealth that we have and should cherish?"
"Most of the students here should not think that they have and are having great wealth."
"I'm sure everyone has wondered at one time or another: How do I have wealth?"
"Some people spend most of their energy part-time in order to have wealth, which affects their studies;"
"Because of poverty, some people are reluctant to eat enough and buy necessary school supplies, and they hoard all their money like misers, as if they spend money, they will lose their sense of security."
"I want to tell you that this is all a false view of wealth."
"Consider a question: What are you going to exchange for wealth?"
"Suppose you were a blacksmith in ancient times, and one day, you have nothing to eat. In order to obtain food, you have three paths: "
"Grow your own."
"Steal, rob."
"Build a farm tool and exchange it with the farmer."
"Most people will choose the third way, and they will find that as long as they produce iron tools and exchange them continuously, they will become richer and richer. So, the basis for acquiring wealth is 'exchange'. ”
"So, if you choose to grow your own, or steal or rob, is there no exchange?"
"No, it's not."
"The first plan is actually to exchange one's own time, labor, and farming experience; The second option is actually an exchange of force, risk, weapons carried, and preparation to commit a crime. ”
"So, whatever option it is, it's all about an exchange, and it's no less expensive than building a farm tool."
"Every choice you make to acquire wealth is essentially an exchange."
"So, apart from the parts that are destined at birth and that you have no control over, what is the wealth that we really have that can be exchanged?"
"Is it money? No, it doesn't really belong to us, it's just a digital form of existence for that part of the wealth you've already exchanged for. ”
"Is it time? No, the passage of time is not subject to human will. ”
"Is it the body? It's true that you have a lot of wealth, but if you trade it for it, you're bound to get into a state of chagrin. ”
"Everyone's greatest asset is actually 'attention', or 'energy'."
"You want to make money from your work, it's useless to just sit in the office, focus on your work and then use your knowledge to solve problems."
"Knowledge is acquired in the classroom and at work with attention."
"Aside from the part we can't control, the only treasure we have is attention."
"The concept of wealth that I want to share with you today is, how should we use our attention?"
"Perhaps, a lot of people will waste it;"
"Perhaps, many people will be harvested by some merchants with ulterior motives;"
"Perhaps, it will be used in the form of big data analysis."
"Many students complain about why they are born poor and why they are born unequal. This kind of complaining will destroy you, make you waste your attention, and let your life continue to fail. ”
"And if we want to change our destiny, we have to project our attention on ourselves."
"If you read an extra hour a day, even if it's just 1%, you'll be 38 times better than your previous self after a year."
"Therefore, I hope that the students who get this money will not save it all and be reluctant to spend it; And don't buy things that are meaningless and only to satisfy your own vanity; Don't spend it on distracting, indulgent entertainment. ”
"Spend this money where it's really needed: elevate yourself."
"Always remember that attention is the most valuable asset for all of us, and I hope everyone can put it to good use and treat it well."
"This is the correct view of wealth."
