Chapter 353: Green Lemon Student Aid Foundation and Big Joke(1/2)
The establishment of "Ling Ning Student Aid Foundation" is even more low-key than "Ling Ning Technology".
Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun didn't even release relevant news through their own scarves.
Since the foundation does not solicit donations from the public, and all funds of the foundation come from targeted donations from Lime Technology, there is no need to be high-profile, as if it is showing off that it is doing good deeds, or forcing others to do good deeds.
Qin Ke felt that such a thing was unnecessary.
And the more low-key you are, the more you can actually do something practical, so as not to be repeatedly harassed and hyped by the media and waste a lot of time and energy in this area.
However, being low-key also has the disadvantage of being low-key, which is that it is not well-known, and it is not easy to recruit a secretary-general. It is especially difficult to find a secretary-general who has experience in operating public welfare funds and has outstanding work ability.
In the end, the elders spent a lot of effort to select three qualified candidates for Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun.
Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun interviewed the three candidates on the second day after their class graduation trip, and finally selected the youngest, a girl named Huo Baoyan, who was only twenty-nine years old.
This girl is small in stature, her skin is a little dark, and her appearance is even more ordinary. She looks like a rural girl. Her academic qualifications are also the "worst" among the three candidates. She is just an undergraduate student in the Sociology Department of Beiyan University, and is relatively
The other two have experience of returning from overseas, or are graduates from prestigious foreign universities with master's degrees, and they are much inferior.
What impressed Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun was her experience.
She lost her mother when she was one and her father when she was three. She lived with her grandmother who picked up rags. She grew up eating a lot of food. Even her tuition and living expenses were raised through donations from neighbors and community committees.
This made her feel grateful to society, and she has participated in countless charity activities since she was a child.
When she was in college, she worked three part-time jobs, but her monthly living expenses only cost 700, and the rest was used to support orphans and out-of-school children in mountainous areas.
The most rare thing is that her grades have remained excellent from childhood to adulthood.
She is not very talkative and has no experience in independently managing a large foundation, but she is very cheerful and has pure eyes. Qin Ke deliberately placed a poster for out-of-school children in the corner of the interview room. Among the three candidates, only
She walked over and took a closer look.
During the interview, she also admitted that she had only managed a small charitable foundation with a scale of several million, and had no experience in managing a large foundation alone. However, she was willing to learn and make progress together with the team.
Huo Baoyan said sincerely: "I have no ambition, but if I must choose a career and do it well, I will choose to use my life to repay the goodwill of this society."
It was this sentence that finally made Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun choose Huo Baoyan.
In addition, the four full-time staff recruited are all young people, but they all have a heart that is grateful to the society and have some volunteer experience. One of the boys has also served as a volunteer teacher in a mountainous area.
The most important thing is that Qin Ke didn't feel any negative or violent emotions from them.
This is enough.
Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun are willing to spend time and even money to let such a young team grow slowly.
Considering that the team of the "Ling Ning Student Aid Foundation" still needs time to work on the project, Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun discussed it and arranged the first student aid fund project for the team - to help Qin Ke's roommate Wu Zhu in his hometown.
That village-level primary school called "Shicun Primary School".
The main tasks of the Student Aid Foundation are to provide donations to eligible primary schools, repair teaching buildings, provide subsidies to teachers in mountain villages, provide tuition and miscellaneous fees to out-of-school children, etc.
The most appropriate way to do it depends on practice. This Shicun Primary School happened to have Qin Ke’s friend Wu Zhu as the introducer, so it was a relatively easy project to carry out.
Qin Ke planned to use this project as a blueprint, first spend 10 million to explore the road and establish a complete set of rules and regulations, and then use it to verify it again with several primary schools in poor villages that he and Ning Qingyun passed during their trip to the prairie last year.
, to operate the foundation as standardized and efficient as possible.
And according to Qin Ke's idea, he and Ning Qingyun will not be involved in the implementation of specific projects, and at most they will only suggest funding targets.
If the foundation operates independently and well, like Qing Ning Technology, Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun can completely relax and focus on their own studies and scientific research.
This first project is the touchstone of the "Lime Scholarship Fund".
Just as he said, Qin Ke asked his assistant Fang Yongtang to rent a commercial vehicle and take everyone from the foundation to Shicun Primary School.
After nearly six hours of driving and more than half an hour of walking, everyone arrived at this small village in the mountains.
Even the mobile phone signal here is intermittent, villagers in shabby clothes are still working in the fields, and children covered in mud are running and playing in the fields. As far as the eye can see, they are all old yellow mud brick houses.
Wu Zhu had already been waiting at the entrance of the village with the village chief. He was particularly excited to see Qin Ke because he had heard about Qin Ke's funding plan.
Wu Zhu, who was clumsy in speech, just held Qin Ke's hand hard and could not say a word.
Qin Ke smiled and chatted with him and the village chief for a few words, and then introduced Huo Baoyan.
Compared with Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun, who were too young, the village chief still valued adults like Huo Baoyan more, and personally took everyone to Shicun Primary School.
The situation in Shicun Primary School is worse than imagined. The conditions for running the school are very poor. The teaching building is even dilapidated and there is no dormitory for teachers. The teachers can only live in a leaky old ancestral hall.
Everyone is worried. How can we retain young teachers under such harsh conditions? It is also very dangerous for students to go to school in dilapidated buildings.
Under the recommendation of the village chief, Qin Ke, Ning Qingyun, and Huo Baoyan met the principal of the primary school, a thin and frail old man. When he heard that everyone came to donate to the school, the old man said with tears in his eyes:
"Thank you very much. In fact, we old men can survive. It's just that this classroom is really worrying. Whenever it's windy or rainy, we don't dare to let the children have classes in it, for fear that the building will collapse...and
The three young people, Xiaozhuang, live in such a shabby place that they can hardly survive."
This chapter is not finished yet. Please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Huo Baoyan looked at Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun. Neither of them spoke. They just cast encouraging glances at her. Huo Baoyan was grateful in her heart, knowing that these two
A boss delegates power to himself.
She sincerely said to the old principal: "Principal, don't worry, now that we are here, we will try our best to improve these problems. As for how much money can be invested and to what extent we can achieve it, we can't give you a clear commitment now, because
Funds for the foundation's projects must be approved by the board of directors, but we will try our best to ensure that at least the conditions of the teaching buildings and staff dormitories will be improved."
Before leaving, the children in shabby clothes saluted everyone collectively, with hope and expectation in their eyes. Everyone felt bitter and full of strength, and once again felt the meaning and responsibility of the "Ling Lemon Student Aid Fund".
Returning to Yuanzhou, Huo Baoyan and four full-time staff stayed up for two days and two nights to quickly sort out all the information, formulate a detailed funding aid plan, and submit it to the board of directors for review.
The information was clearly organized, and the planned cost estimates were well-founded. Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun were greatly impressed. Sure enough, they had a specialization in the field!
Moreover, the work enthusiasm of Huo Baoyan and others reassured Qin Ke and others, so they decided not to get involved in the specific implementation.
They are only responsible for reviewing whether the project is implemented and what the implementation results are.
The specific implementation will be handed over to the professional CEO and Secretary General Huo Baoyan. The process will be supervised and escorted by the board of directors throughout the process.
After finishing the foundation matters, Qin Ke stopped by to apply for a driver's license test.
This time when he went to Shicun Primary School, Qin Ke once again realized the usefulness of having a driver's license. Although he could drive, he couldn't drive on the road without a license. He was a good student who abided by the law.
At the driving range, Qin Ke finally got over the addiction to driving and applied the driving knowledge and skills in his mind into practice.
Seeing his extremely skilled driving movements and good sense of direction control, the coach was secretly surprised. This young man's driving skills are quite high. He, a veteran driver who has been driving for decades, is only at this level.
So when Qin Ke proposed not to attend classes but to take exams, the coach readily agreed. Especially after accepting two good cigarettes from Qin Ke, the coach even patted his chest and promised to arrange exams first. If everything goes well, he will be 40 at the latest.
God, Qin Ke can get his driver's license.
There is no need to practice driving, the results of the college entrance examination have not been released, there is no news about the three submitted papers, and the knowledge of the university's biology department has not been absorbed, making it impossible to absorb the chip theory textbook in my mind for the time being.
Qin Ke had a rare moment of leisure.
He thought about buying a car again, and decided to equip Qing Ning Student Aid Foundation and Qing Ning Technology with a commercial vehicle each so that he could drive them when he needed a car in Yuanzhou.
Fang Yongtang handled the application very efficiently. After Qin Ke finished the driver's license test, the two seven-seater domestic commercial vehicles obtained license plates and parked in the underground parking garage of the office building. In order to ensure that there were parking spaces, Qin Ke waved his hand again.
, bought two parking spaces.
I have to say that having money means being comfortable and willful.
Once the subject test is over, it will take ten days at the fastest before the subject two can be taken. Qin Ke, who was flipping through the book and green in the sky, suddenly said: "Jun'er, I think it's time to go home for a while. That girl Xiaoke is about to go home."
For the final exam, I had to help her with her homework. Now, except for her math scores, which have improved a lot, her other scores are still not up to par."
"Yeah." Ning Qingyun, who was studying college mathematics by herself, nodded reluctantly. After Qin Ke left, he probably wouldn't be able to return to the city for ten days and a half. After all, the transportation was not very convenient.
Qin Ke rolled his eyes and said, "Why don't you come back with me? I'll take you to play in Qingping Town. Xiao Ke is shouting that she misses you every day. You are better at liberal arts than me, and you can also help her with her homework."
It's interesting to say that it has been almost three months since Qingning Technology was established, and it has been almost three months since Qin Ke's father, Qin Yanghui, took office as chairman, and Ning Qingyun has never met him.
Of course, the main reason is that she and Qin Ke are busy with the college entrance examination and hardly show up in the company. As for the company's affairs, she only reads the weekly and monthly work reports sent by Fang Yongtang on a routine basis, and basically doesn't do much about them.
Ask.
Another reason is, of course, that Ning Qingyun has not yet fully prepared herself mentally to meet her boyfriend's parents.
But this time, after hearing Qin Ke's invitation again, Ning Qingyun hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded firmly: "Okay."
She had promised Qin Ke before that she would meet his family after the college entrance examination. After all, Qin Ke had met her parents, her grandparents, and it seemed too rude not to meet Qin Ke's parents.
.
Now that Ning Qingyun is with him, Qin Ke will naturally not let her take the long-distance bus with him anymore. He directly asked Fang Yongtang to drive a new business car to see them off. Anyway, Qing Ning Technology's business is currently delivered on its own initiative.
Door-to-door service, there is no demand for cars at the moment.
At noon the next day, Qin Ke came to Ning Qingyun's house to pick her up. He saw Ning Qingyun stacking large and small bags at the door and preparing two large suitcases.
Qin Ke said with a smile: "Jun'er, are you moving?"
Ning Qingyun blushed and whispered: "Grandma said that when I go to your house for the first time, I have to bring some gifts. Most of these are prepared by grandma. I...I don't even know how to give them to your parents.
What did I buy? I just bought some skirts for Xiao Ke."
Ning Qingyun's shy look was so cute that Qin Ke couldn't help but laugh: "Then there's no need to bring so many, right?"
"Why are you laughing!" Ning Qingyun blushed and glared at Qin Ke: "Last time your grandpa came to the house and bought a lot of things. Grandma said that reciprocity is necessary...I...I don't
I know this very well.”
She rarely goes to other people's homes, and she is really not good at these people's sophistication.
