After that, Feng Yu was about to leave, but Zhang Ruiqiang grabbed his wrist.
"Xiao Zhao, come in and refill General Manager Feng's teacup."
"What are you trying to do?" Feng Yu looked at Zhang Ruiqiang warily. Old Zhang had called him General Manager Feng, and this was not a good sign!
"Sit down. Do you think I will harm you?" Zhang Ruiqiang pulled Feng Yu to sit down.
Both of them were good friends, and their relationship was better than normal friends. Feng Yu had helped Zhang Ruiqiang a lot, but Zhang Ruiqiang had also helped Feng Yu a lot.
Sometimes, Zhang Ruiqiang treated Feng Yu as his junior. Feng Yu also does not believe that Zhang Ruiqiang would harm him.
But just like how some parents will harm their children, Zhang Ruiqiang might also set up traps for Feng Yu!
"Feng Yu, you had made a lot of money from buying crude oil last year, right? You had taken loans in China and stopped investing in Bing City's Machinery Industry, and the State Assets' shares had recovered. That means you had invested most of your funds into the financial market, right? "
Feng Yu asked. "Are you going to ask me for donations?"
This was weird. Old Zhang had never asked Feng Yu for donations. Usually, it was Feng Yu who asked for donations. At first, Old Zhang felt embarrassed.
Feng Yu was paying, and Old Zhang was also getting credit.
Did the sun rise from the west today? Old Zhang actually took the initiative to ask for donations?
Feng Yu jumped up and stared at Zhang Ruiqiang. This was the first time he had asked for a donation, and it should not be a small amount. What's wrong? Are the higher-ups short of money?
Is Hua Xia wealthy now? Their GDP had been increasing rapidly, and their ranking in the world had been rising every year.
But on average, it was much lesser than Hua Xia. With a large population and a large territory, there were more places to spend money, and it was not a small amount.
The issue of social security for the rural population alone was already an astronomical cost. It was normal and correct for the government to tilt the country's welfare towards the poor. It was also in line with the policy that Hua Xia had been promoting all along. In the end, it was for everyone to be prosperous.
However, the result of this common prosperity was to make Hua Xia a developed country. Every family could become a well-off family. This was prosperity.
Just like in Saudi Arabia, no one lacked money. However, there was still a gap between people's affluence. An ordinary family in Saudi Arabia is definitely not comparable to those tycoons on the Forbes list.
Feng Yu seriously suspected that Zhang Ruiqiang wanted a lot of money!
"Look at you, why are you standing up again? Sit down. Xiao Zhao, bring the box of cigars on the table and light one for General Manager Feng. "
"Don't be like this. If you have something to say, just say it. Don't talk nonsense!"
Looking at Feng Yu's defensive posture, Little Zhao almost laughed out loud. If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, no one would have believed that the richest man in the world was like this.
"Look, this year is the Olympic Games, right? The government's investment in the Olympic Games is an astronomical figure. We want to host an Olympic Games that will be remembered by the people forever, and at the same time, promote our country and show off our country's strength. "
Why are so many countries rushing to host the Olympic Games? It was not just an honor. It was also a real benefit. The tourism related income during the Olympic Games was an astronomical figure. The TV broadcast and advertising income during the Olympic Games was also a huge figure.
Although a portion of the income had to be shared with the International Olympic Committee, most of the income would still be in Hua Xia's pocket. Furthermore, this was an important international promotion for Hua Xia. Hua Xia will be known and liked by more people in the world, and more people and companies will invest in Hua Xia.
More people will come to Hua Xia to work, travel, spend, etc. This was also a good opportunity to promote Hua Xia's culture.
Why must the opening ceremony of Hua Xia's Olympic Games be held in a Confucian style? It's not because Hua Xia people do not know modern dance. It's to promote their culture.
In Feng Yu's previous life, the London Olympic Games had been criticized by the media. Even the Queen had to make a cameo appearance.
Feng Yu waved his hand. "You don't need to explain to everyone. Just tell me, do you want money?"
"That's right. I want to ask you if you can donate some money to our athletes."
Feng Yu was surprised. "The Huo Family in Hong Kong has an Olympic medal fund, and I have set up a medal fund in China. Is it not enough?"
Feng Yu had started to sponsor the Olympic Games during the Atlanta Olympics, and this Olympic Games was held in his own territory. How can he be stingy? This year, not only him, but the Huo Family had also increased the rewards for the athletes.
That means this is not enough? How much more do the athletes want to earn? The General Administration of Sport of China had also learned how to develop the commercial value of the athletes. They can advertise the athletes after winning the medals.
This year is the Olympic Games, and the value of the athletes should increase.
"If we are talking about rewards for athletes who have won medals, this is definitely more than enough, even more than we expected. But there are still many athletes who did not win the medals. It's not because they did not work hard enough. It's because they are limited by their talent and our country's training system. It's hard for them to achieve good results. "
"If these athletes achieve a historic breakthrough and build a foundation for our future development, can we give them some rewards?"
For example, how many professional athletes are there in the triathlon? Also, the men's long-distance running is one of the last few. It's hard for these athletes to achieve good results.
But this year, the Olympic Games will be held in Hua Xia, and the higher-ups made a decision. As long as the athletes meet the standards and are qualified to participate, they can participate.
For those who are not qualified, there are other ways to participate. For example, getting a wild card or something. Participating in the Olympic Games in China does not require a lot of travel expenses. This is a rare opportunity for these athletes to participate in the Olympic Games. This way, their years of training will not go to waste.
The fees for participating in the Olympic Games are not high, and the higher-ups can afford it. This year, the General Administration of Sport of China had allocated a lot of funds. Also, this Olympic Games will be profitable. Why would the higher-ups be stingy?
Feng Yu frowned. "What did you say? You want to give them rewards even if they cannot get a medal? What do you mean by a breakthrough in results? The athletes who did not participate in the previous Olympic Games are participating this year. To those sports officials, this is a historic breakthrough, right? "
"Also, don't think I don't know that the number of athletes participating in this year's Olympic Games is the highest in history. Many of the athletes were qualified for the Olympic Games through wild cards. Why are we giving them rewards?"
Actually, if the higher-ups were to open up the commercial value of the athletes, the country would not need to invest so much money. Many of the competitions have high bonuses. If the athletes get a good ranking, they will also receive endorsements and other commercial activities. These are enough for them to make money and pay for the training of the athletes.
"Never mind. This is the first time you have spoken. Get someone to give me a list. I will donate some money later, but there will be no next time!"
"I will send the list to your email later. There are not many athletes. I know you will not reject me." Zhang Ruiqiang said straightforwardly.
When Feng Yu returned to his car, he took out his L-Pad and logged into his email. When he saw the long list of hundreds of athletes, he wished he could slap the L-Pad on Old Zhang's face. This is not many athletes?!
