I Want To Be a Rich Man on Hong Kong Island

At the beginning of the new year, Wu Guangyao came to New Asia College, which he donated 100,000 Hong Kong dollars every year.

The building of New Asia College is located on the third and fourth floors of an old-fashioned building on Guilin Street, Sham Shui Po, Kowloon. The first and second floors are shops. The environment is obviously not good.

"Mr. Wu, there are currently 98 students in New Asia Academy, most of whom are exiled youths from the mainland who come to Hong Kong. They cannot afford the tuition fees, and only one-third of them are able to pay the tuition fees. The school is in financial distress, and teachers are paid by the hour. The monthly salary ranges from 60 to 80 yuan."

The speaker was Qian Mu, the dean of New Asia College and the head of the Department of Literature and History. Later generations of Chinese academic circles respected him as the "Grandmaster of a Generation", and together with Lu Simian, Chen Yuan, and Chen Yinke, they were called the "Four Great Masters of History".

But at this time, facing Wu Guangyao, a rich man, he could only accompany him cautiously, speaking somewhat flatteringly.

There is no way, New Asia College is seriously short of money, and although Wu Guangyao promised to donate 100,000 Hong Kong dollars a year, he invested this money in the preparation of the new campus from the very beginning.

The construction of the new campus began at the end of 1949, and it will take half a year until the second semester of 1951 to arrange the relocation.

"I heard that Dean Qian visited Taiwan last year and persuaded Taipei to allocate 3,000 Hong Kong dollars a month to subsidize teaching. Is there such a thing?" Wu Guangyao asked suddenly.

Qian Mu said without hesitation: "Yes, because I was invited to give a speech in Taipei and have a brief talk with Jiang's family to teach Chinese culture and historical spirit, and mentioned the difficulty of running a school, so the Executive Yuan allocated 3,000 Hong Kong dollars per month to solve the problem. Difficulties in running schools.”

"Then does this school have a political direction?" Wu Guangyao asked bluntly.

Wu Guangyao didn't care what the accompanying people, as well as a few former Chinese politicians, and academic celebrities thought.

"Of course not. New Asia College only has departments of business, philosophy, and economics." Qian Mu said immediately.

Wu Guangyao nodded, thinking that coming to this school could not be from the forces in Taipei.

But as the biggest donor, I have to ask, so as not to be used by others.

Although the new campus of New Asia College is about to be put into use, Wu Guangyao only promised an annual donation of 100,000, and all of it was used for the construction of the new campus.

After moving into the new campus, we can't still be these few students and teachers!

The school needs to expand its scale, which naturally requires a large amount of funds.

So under the lead of Zhao Bing, New Asia College invited Wu Guangyao, the nominal founder.

Although Wu Guangyao was the founder, he came to New Asia College again after a year, as if he had forgotten about it.

"What's the attitude of the Hong Kong government?" Wu Guangyao asked again.

Running a school on Hong Kong Island is naturally subject to the management of the Hong Kong government. If the Hong Kong government does not support it, money is useless.

"The Education Department of Hong Kong Island attaches great importance to it. It has accommodated New Asia College, and all requests are accepted! But in terms of funds, there is very little support, and it all depends on everyone's own raising!"

Wu Guangyao nodded. It would be great if the Hong Kong government can give you policies. If you want money, there is obviously no way!

I came to a teacher's office with everyone, and suddenly, this office was crowded with many scholars.

There are Zhao Bing, Wu Junsheng, Luo Xianglin, Zhang Weihan, Liang Hancao, Chen Bozhuang, Cheng Zhaoxiong, Luo Mengchi and others.

The arrival of Wu Guangyao today is related to the future of New Asia College;

If Wu Guangyao can't raise funds here, moving to the new campus will be greatly restricted.

"Dean Qian, I have three requests. If you agree, then I will donate another 100,000 Hong Kong dollars every year for the operation of the school." Wu Guangyao said.

I donate 100,000 yuan per year, which is already the best of benevolence. It is impossible to get nothing in return. I am a businessman!

"Please say!"

"First, I have always liked Chinese medicine. I feel that Chinese medicine is broad and profound, and it can even apply for patents and go to the world. So I want New Asia School to add a school of Chinese medicine, which will mainly teach Chinese medicine and analyze the ingredients of herbal medicines."

After saying the first item, the scholars in the room were all surprised.

I thought that this young rich man in Hong Kong Island was asking for some kind of shares in the school, but he didn't expect to increase the School of Chinese Medicine, which is of course a good thing.

When Wu Guangyao mentioned this matter, it was naturally deeply influenced by later generations.

Japan and South Korea in the later generations, these two countries are so shameless that they have applied for all the patents of traditional Chinese medicine.

So much so that Huaxia sells those traditional Chinese medicines abroad, which still constitutes patent infringement, which is simply unbearable!

"Of course, Chinese medicine has been developed for thousands of years, so it naturally has many unique features. It's just that some Chinese medicine skills are not perfect, and they have done things that damage the reputation of Chinese medicine. Don't worry, Mr. Wu, I will definitely find a few masters of Chinese medicine to come. Lecture." Qian Mu said seriously.

"Masters of traditional Chinese medicine are very necessary, but we also need to test the ingredients of herbal medicines. We can't just rely on experience to teach. We need to talk about science, so we need to set up advanced laboratories." Wu Guangyao suggested.

In fact, Wu Guangyao has plans to set up a Chinese medicine factory, so this college is his chess piece, which can provide him with talents in the future.

"It makes sense. I didn't expect Mr. Wu to use science to explain the uniqueness of Chinese medicine at such a young age!"

"Thank you Dean Qian for the compliment, just a little opinion!"

Based on this alone, the scholars in the room no longer regarded Wu Guangyao as a businessman covered in copper stink, and everyone's eyes changed.

Wu Guangyao went on to say: "Second, the teachers and professors of New Asia College are full of talents. I hope that New Asia College will hold open classes regularly, open to the public free of charge, and teach Chinese culture and history."

"Okay, this is a matter of course, please rest assured Mr. Wu, we are willing to be the propagandists of Chinese culture."

The next day after Wu Guangyao said it, the scholars in the room all looked at him with admiration!

"Third, I want to be the nominal dean of New Asia College. Of course, I will not manage the specific affairs of the school, but only occasionally give some opinions!"

Everyone did not expect that Wu Guangyao's three conditions were all for the sake of the school, and he did not fight for his own interests at all.

Everyone misunderstood this young rich man in Hong Kong Island. It is obvious that others are not mediocre when they achieve such great achievements at such a young age!

On the contrary, it was everyone who was full of prejudice against people at the beginning, and everyone couldn't help feeling a little ashamed.

"Mr. Wu doesn't talk about this matter. I also want to invite Mr. Wu to be the dean of the school. After all, Mr. Wu is also one of the founders of New Asia College."

At this time, Qian Mu also felt that Wu Guangyao was very kind and liked him very much.

Then Wu Guangyao, led by everyone, met the students of New Asia College.

Nearly a hundred students looked at Wu Guangyao, who was about the same age as them, and they were filled with emotion!

None of these students did not know Wu Guangyao, because the word Wu Guangyao often appeared in their lives from the moment they came to Hong Kong Island, and many people even regarded Wu Guangyao as an idol.

"Principal Wu, tell the students a few words, and let them understand the spirit of hard work!" Qian Mu said.

Naturally, Wu Guangyao was not afraid of such a small scene. He walked to the center of the podium and said, "From the Mainland to live in Hong Kong Island, and then to study in New Asia College, you have been going through a kind of hardship. This is exactly in line with New Asia The spirit of Xinya, Xinya spirit is not only a spirit of hard work and struggle, but also a spirit of hard work and struggle for ideals! Many people see my success and imagine success, which is impossible! Only by stepping Only by studying steadily can you find a good job, and then wait for the opportunity to realize your dreams..."

As a successful person, Wu Guangyao's speech will naturally not make people feel "fake and empty", and it is full of persuasiveness in itself!

There was prolonged applause from the audience!

Since these young people are studying economics and business, Wu Guangyao is naturally more convincing than those teachers!
