"What?" Professor Wu jumped up from his chair in shock and rubbed his ears, "Bai Liu, say it again, I didn't hear you clearly just now."

Bai Liu felt that the professor didn't hear clearly, but he couldn't believe it.

Yes, she didn't expect Lu Pingwan to make such a decision.

At first, Lu Pingwan just said that we should give back to the society. Students are the future of society and national development. When the whole society is generally poor, we must pay more attention to the issue of higher education, because these students are the backbone of future development.

She proposed to donate money to Beijing University, but how to donate and how much to donate were not matters in one sentence. Later, Bai Liu mentioned that Song Jiaying was studying at Beijing University, so it was not good to favor one thing over another.

Lu Pingwan directly discussed with Song Jiaying, and the couple unanimously decided to donate a teaching building to each of the two top universities.

Bai Liu reorganized his language and said: "Mr. Song Jingyun and Ms. Lu Pingwan want to donate teaching buildings to Peking University and BGI, but there is no precedent in China. It will be inconvenient to go through the Overseas Chinese Affairs Office. They hope to communicate with the school first through me and you. "

In fact, she didn't say anything deeper, but Professor Wu could understand.

The country is still dominated by state capital, and although it advocates reform and opening up, it is impossible to liberalize it in some special areas.

Education is a matter of the state. If capitalists are allowed to inject large amounts of capital, will this be a school owned by the whole people, or will it be a school owned by your capitalists?

"According to foreign practice, donated teaching buildings must be named after the donor, but -" Professor Wu couldn't continue.

Again, if the new teaching building is called Song Jingyun Building or Lu Pingwan Building, there will be no objections abroad or in Hong Kong, but if it is called at home, it may cause a huge storm.

Bai Liu naturally understood, and she said in a consultative tone: "I can't tell the school directly about this. Please communicate with the school, and we can discuss it with the University of Washington."

She hesitated for a moment and then said: "We want to help more students, and the fundamental purpose is not to hurt anyone. The total donation from the two schools is [-] million, and we want to focus on the cultivation of education, not other things."

There are also scruples and worries about doing good deeds. I am worried that the recipients will not receive practical help, and I am also worried about raising moths.

Bai Liu and Lu Pingwan discussed this issue. They did not want this donation to alarm too many people. First, they wanted to do some good deeds silently, and second, they did not want to become a burden.

Professor Wu was completely stunned when he heard [-] million. At first, he was still thinking of having a teaching building each in Peking University and Huada, which would probably cost a lot of money.

If we talk specifically about money, such a large amount of money...

"Don't worry, I'll go talk to the principal and I'll definitely give you a satisfactory plan." Professor Wu thought for a while and then said, "I studied abroad when I was young, and there are similar donation cases abroad. Naming is currently very popular in China. Difficult, can other forms be allowed to exist?”

Bai Liu asked back: "For example?"

She and Lu Pingwan were mentally prepared.

Professor Wu said in a deep voice: "Constructing a project involves more problems and will take some time. If possible, I am a little selfish. I hope it can really be used for students. Whether it is scholarships or living expenses, it will be given directly to the students. They need it more.”

Bai Liu was slightly startled. She had thought a lot in advance. They could even consider the loss of some money during the project, but she did not expect Professor Wu to be so open-minded.

Yes, spending money on students, even if it is only 100 or [-] per person, can improve the lives of students in a short period of time.

As for accommodation issues, etc., they are urgent but not very urgent.

She immediately agreed: "Yes, we can make this concession." Professor Wu immediately smiled with relief: "That's easy to handle. To be honest, I sometimes see children on campus holding up their Wowotou and chewing books, and I feel really uncomfortable. . Our country can waive tuition for college students and subsidize living expenses, but it is just barely enough. If it can make everyone eat well, even if it adds one more dish, that is a good thing."

The current overall living standard is not high, and this is the condition. Getting students to eat more and eat better is the most practical issue.

Bai Liu left campus not long ago, so she naturally knew everyone's life. She had been working for many years when she was studying. Not only did she have savings, but she was also able to make money while studying.

But most people who go to college are honest scholars. Not only have they not learned how to make money, they are even more embarrassed to apply for subsidies.

She suddenly felt that Professor Wu's proposal was better than their previous ideas.

1 million yuan can change many people's lives and even their lives.

"Only when you have a better body can you devote yourself to work and study better." She almost acquiesced to Professor Wu's proposal.

Professor Wu praised him repeatedly and immediately stood up and said to Bai Liu: "I want to solemnly thank you."

The old professor was choked up as he spoke. He had a lot to say, but he didn't know how to say it. After all, the money didn't actually belong to her.

Bai Liu joked: "Then you can't thank me. In fact, I still benefit from it. It was Mr. Song Jingyun and Ms. Lu Pingwan who had the intention. When Ms. Lu Pingwan proposed the donation, her initial idea was 500 million or 1000 million. Later, Mr. Song Jingyun said it would be better to have more."

"They said that spending money on students does not have to be tied up, and they will create greater value."

That's what they say, but the money is spent by Song Jingyun and Lu Pingwan, the benefits fall on the students, and the value created in the future is the value of the whole society. How can Professor Wu not be moved by this?
"Capitalists are also divided into good and evil, but we are narrow-minded." Professor Wu has a new understanding of capitalists.

Bai Liu didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but she was not qualified to say this. Praise from others was better.

And if you drop [-] million, it's a good thing to hear the echo.

“One hundred million is so generous,” Professor Wu said with emotion. “With these [-] million, we can do a lot of things anywhere.”

"What [-] million?" Teacher Lin just pushed the door open and saw Bai Liu at a glance, "Xiao Bai finally came today? Lao Wu and I said a few days ago that if you go to work in the future, there may be fewer people coming."

When Bai Liu was studying in the later years, he had a lot of contact with Professor Wu and his wife, and also had a good relationship with Teacher Lin.

She waved her hands quickly: "Why is it less? It's just that I've been in a bit of trouble recently, and it will be much better in the future."

Teacher Lin was puzzled: "What's the trouble? Is there anything we can do to help you? By the way, what [-] million did you mention just now?"

"Of course it's 1 million yuan," Professor Wu pointed at Bai Liu with a smile. "In just a few days, Bai Liu has become the daughter-in-law of a wealthy family. No, she has brought a large donation to our school."

Bai Liu smiled bitterly. Will she have to bear the title "daughter-in-law of a wealthy family" for a long time?
Teacher Lin's face was full of surprise: "Aren't you married a long time ago? Daddy Sugar Bean also came back some time ago. Could it be that you -"

"Don't think too much," Bai Liu explained immediately, "I didn't remarry, it was Song Jiaying who found his biological parents..."

Teacher Lin laughed when he heard this: "Why does this look like a TV show?" (End of Chapter)
