He originally thought that Lin Hexia would be more relaxed when he came to the mainland, at least much more leisurely than in Hong Kong, but the fact was completely beyond his expectation, and he was even busier than in Hong Kong.
The Hexia Charitable Foundation was established very quickly. All the procedures were completed in less than half a month, and a group of professionals were recruited to manage and operate charitable funds.
This is due to the relatively abundant talent for charity fund operations in Hong Kong. In addition, the scale of the Hexia Charity Foundation is not particularly large, and the staff size does not need to be large, so that all the work can be prepared in such a short period of time. .
Originally, Zhao Yi did not agree with Lin Hexia's participation in the actual work of the charity fund, because it was a very hard job, and it was not just about taking out the money.
If you want to effectively manage charitable foundations, not to mention adding value, because they have no intention of using these funds for financial investment, even if they are simply carrying out poverty alleviation work, you need to carefully screen them.
Therefore, it is necessary to conduct a more detailed investigation for every poor family and poor population, instead of making hasty decisions based on the information given by others, because that is often far from the truth.
It’s not that they feel bad about the money, they want to donate it anyway, but they want to use the money to really poor families to avoid someone fishing in troubled waters, causing people who should not be helped to get the money, but the really poor people don’t get it. Rescue.
If you just want to build a good reputation, you don't have to worry about this. After all, the money is indeed donated. As for whether the donation is correct or not, it will not affect their reputation. Anyway, there is an inconsistency in the objects, and it has little to do with the charity fund.
Lin Hexia obviously does not want this to happen. The employees of the Hexia Charitable Foundation are all from Hong Kong and may not be particularly familiar with the situation in the mainland. This makes Lin Hexia very uneasy.
So when the Hexia Charitable Foundation carried out charity activities in the mainland, she had to go to the countryside to work with the people of the charity foundation, who had not been at home for a few days.
He originally thought that after just a few days, after letting the Hong Kong employees get familiar with the mainland, she would not need to do it herself, but he did not expect that she would not be able to stop busy at all.
This even made him doubt whether it was right or wrong to let Lin Hexia return to the mainland. However, judging from Lin Hexia's phone communication, she was very enthusiastic about the matter and obviously enjoyed it.
The current urban development speed in China is still very fast, but in rural areas, although the development speed is not slow, the foundation is still very weak, and the hardware conditions are generally poor.
There is no way around this. On the one hand, our country's economic development has only been in less than 10 years. Although the total amount is now very large, the accumulation is not enough. This requires time to slowly develop.
On the other hand, most of the labor force is attracted to urban employment, and urbanization requires a large amount of labor force. Even if rural areas have funds, they cannot obtain enough labor force.
The eastern and central regions are better off. After all, the economy here has been developing rapidly for several years. The government finances are much better than those in the western regions, and rural infrastructure construction has been significantly improved.
This time, the main recipients of Hexia Charitable Fund's donations are the rural population in the western region and some urban unemployed people, and these areas are often the hardest-working places.
This trip lasted for more than a month, and he didn't stay at home for a few days. He came back occasionally during this period, but within a few days, he had to go out and be busy again, which made Zhao Yi very helpless.
Every time he said that he could let others do it, there was no need to do everything himself, and he had to believe that the people below could do the job well. She agreed every time, but she still went to help whenever something happened.
Now he hopes that the people below can take responsibility and liberate her as soon as possible. This is not because he does not care about charity, but because he feels that having her will not make a substantial change, so why bother to worry about it.
However, during this period, the Hexia Charitable Foundation made a lot of noise. As the owner of the charity foundation, Lin Hexia's name appeared in the headlines of newspapers and magazines from time to time, and there were many posts about her on the Internet.
This is very different from when she was in Hong Kong. When she was in Hong Kong, her influence was only in Hong Kong and Macao, and she also had a certain influence in Southeast Asia.
However, not many people in the mainland know her name. On the one hand, she has kept a low profile before and rarely appeared in public. Not to mention the mainland media, even the Hong Kong media, there is not much news about her.
If Hong Kong and Macao were not a large region, even if she did not appear frequently in the media, residents in these areas would still be familiar with her, at least knowing her name and the industries she controls.
On the other hand, Hong Kong Umbrella Holdings does not have much intersection with the mainland. The only intersection may be the establishment of ATV in the mainland, but viewers who watch ATV programs will not care which group ATV belongs to.
Moreover, ATV has never linked itself to the Hong Kong umbrella holding company for publicity. Let alone the mainland, it is the whole world. ATV’s audience size has reached 2 billion, but if you know which group ATV belongs to, it is estimated that even 1% Less than.
This time, due to the needs of charity activities, Lin Hexia often dealt with some mainland media, and there were more and more reports about her, so that the people in the mainland gradually learned some information about her.
I don't know about this, but once I found out about it, it caused an uproar in the mainland. On the one hand, it was because she was too young, and her appearance was also very beautiful, which deeply won the hearts of netizens.
No matter what era you are in, appearance has always been an unavoidable issue for public figures. People with good looks can always gain more favor than people with ordinary looks. This is inevitable.
For someone like Zhao Yi, whose appearance is very average, if he does not have outstanding achievements, it will be very difficult for the people across the country to understand him, and people will not be interested at all.
Of course, Zhao Yiyi doesn't particularly care about appearance. Otherwise, with his skills, he can achieve whatever appearance he wants without any difficulty at all.
This does not refer to plastic surgery, but such an appearance transformation can be carried out from the genetic level, but there is no need to do so. He is not in public all day long, and he relies on his talent to make a living, not his face.
On the other hand, there is the huge wealth controlled by Lin Hexia. Because no one can figure out who owns the assets of the Hong Kong Umbrella Holdings Company. It has gone through many transformations in the process, and it is difficult for people to figure it out.
The media naturally believes that Lin Hexia is the actual owner of Hong Kong Umbrella Holdings. Although some people have different views on this, they cannot produce conclusive evidence to deny it.
In this way, Lin Hexia has become a perfect woman with both good looks and abilities. It is not surprising that she has received great attention, making her reputation in the mainland much higher than before.
However, this situation also brought her a lot of trouble. First of all, if she wanted to be able to walk around the mainland without being recognized as before, it was basically impossible. Unless she put on makeup, like Zhao Yi Same.
But Lin Hexia shouldn't care much about this. After all, she has been living the life of a celebrity for a long time. She is already used to it. It doesn't matter whether she has it or not. She will still have a group of security personnel around her.
Although this feels a bit pretentious in the mainland, after all, there are not many rich people in the mainland, but no one is like Lin Hexia. No matter where they go, they are followed by a large number of security personnel.
The wealthy people in the Mainland are not used to living like this. At the same time, the Mainland is relatively safe at the moment, especially in big cities, where there are basically no big problems.
More importantly, there are not many rich people in the mainland who can attract the attention of the whole people. CEOs like him are basically known to the whole people, but when they go out for activities, they also bring security personnel with them.
It's just that there are not as many security personnel as Lin Hexia. However, when Lin Hexia was active in the mainland, there were only four or five security personnel on the surface, and the rest were deployed on the periphery to provide timely support in case of emergencies. .
Secondly, she suddenly started socializing a lot. Before she became famous, she was basically not invited by anyone else in the mainland. After all, her life circle was not that big and she didn't have many friends.
As she went to college and hung out with Zhao Yi, not to mention making new friends, even the big boys she had played with since she was a child, they gradually stopped interacting with her.
As Lin Hexia gradually left her original circle, people in the original circle paid less and less attention to her, and some people even didn't know what she had been doing these years.
After she became famous in the mainland this time, it really shocked the people in her previous circle. They didn't expect that she, who was inconspicuous back then, could achieve such great achievements in such a short period of time.
This made many people see a lot of benefits from her, and they organized dinners and invited her over for the sake of reminiscing about old times. At first she was quite happy about this, after all, these were all things she had done when she was young.
It's just that there is no pure friendship in the adult world. Even if there is, it is only limited to a few people. After attending the dinner happily, she was disappointed.
At dinner parties, no matter whether they are doing well or not, they all like to brag. She can actually understand this. After all, people have a different face and no matter what, they don't want to be looked down upon.
If it were just like this, everyone would still be hello and I would be hello, but when they attend such a party, they mainly want to find benefits from her.
If it is something that can be obtained and a cooperation that brings value to both parties, she is still more willing to cooperate. It is not impossible to help the other party under a cooperation that benefits both parties.
It's just that the cooperation they came up with was unilaterally beneficial, and they regarded her as a pure fool. More importantly, these so-called business plans had no value. At first glance, they just wanted to get away with nothing.
After this dinner, Lin Hexia was greatly disappointed. When so-called acquaintances invited her later, she refused with various reasons. There was no need to waste time here, and it would also consume her good memories.
In fact, she thought about it later and felt that this situation was normal. Competition in the business world is very fierce. In fact, in the political world, the competition is also very fierce, not even lower than in the business world.
People in her previous circle, if they had some talent and ability, basically chose to enter politics. If their current positions are successful, they should generally reach the director level, and some people have already reached the deputy department level.
How can these people have so much free time to organize dinner parties? Even if they want to organize dinner parties, it is to attract investment for the local area. They will never involve excessive personal financial interests, which will only cause trouble for themselves.
So now she is particularly concerned about who the inviter is. If she can't judge her, she will simply refuse. Although she is a bit "snobbish", in this circle, that's it, she can only do as the Romans do.
After several rejections, everyone knew her attitude, and there was no such situation later. Unless she was particularly shameless, stalking would only make people more annoying.
However, doing so also allowed her to gradually dilute her original circle identity. It can be said that the previous circle gradually excluded her, and there were even rumors about her.
This is the inevitable result. People who can do those things, how good their character can be, and cannot benefit from her, will naturally slander her.
Fortunately, she doesn't care much about these. Her current status is not obtained by relying on her original circle, so she doesn't care about the attitudes of people in her previous circle, whether it is praise or slander, it has no real impact on her. sexual influence.
Moreover, the main business of Hong Kong Umbrella Holdings is in Hong Kong, Macao and Southeast Asia. It also has a lot of business in other countries, but there is basically no business in the mainland. These dandies cannot affect the business of ATV.
The media itself is a special industry. As long as ATV does not violate relevant legal regulations, basically no one can do anything to them. This is different from other business fields and has the role of public opinion supervision.
Moreover, ATV is the world's leading television media, with a very large global audience, and ordinary people will easily offend ATV. Their influence is really too great.
Fortunately, ATV adheres to the standards of the news media and conducts objective and fair reporting. If they really want to smear a person or a country, it will have a very big impact.
It's just that ATV is a relatively pure television news media. Even if it takes actions in this area, it will not bring them substantial benefits. On the contrary, it will have a certain impact on their past image.
ATV only broadcasts their programs in the mainland, but the program production is entrusted to mainland companies, mainly Lime Entertainment. In addition, they will also conduct some joint program production or resource sharing with mainland TV stations.
In other words, their branches in the mainland do not actually produce specific programs. Instead, they conduct analysis and surveys of the mainland market and manage a large group of reporters in the mainland. There are not many commercial activities.
Most business cooperation is decided by the headquarters, and the major branches basically play a coordinating role. This is very different from other news media.
Because their headquarters has an intelligent management system and advanced program playback equipment, they can do this. Otherwise, the headquarters will be too bloated and inefficient, and they can only grant greater authorization to local branches.
Moreover, this model makes it easier for the ATV headquarters to control the program content, so that people with ulterior motives below will not take advantage of it and cause major impacts. Anyway, over the years, ATV has never had any program broadcast accidents.
Therefore, she has no special demands for relationships in the mainland, and just relying on the dudes in her previous circle will not bring her much benefit at all. In fact, there is no need to maintain this relationship at all.
Although these dandies may succeed more than they succeed in targeting mainland enterprises, Hong Kong umbrella holding companies are simply incompatible with them in Hong Kong and Macao, and their influence in Hong Kong and Macao is basically non-existent.
Although doing this has attracted a lot of criticism to Lin Hexia, it is not completely without benefits. At least after excluding these dudes, more people with real abilities and talents will come to Lin Hexia.
In Lin Hexia's previous circle, most capable people chose to engage in politics. On the one hand, this was due to habit, and on the other hand, it was also due to national conditions.
Only people who feel that there is no hope in politics will choose to go into business. If you don't even have the brains to go into business, you can only be a small clerk, and your side job will be a dandy.
But doing business is not that easy now. After these years of rapid development, the domestic business environment and laws have actually become very sound. I don’t want to spend a long time perfecting this aspect in my previous life.
Therefore, it is not that easy to take advantage of loopholes to make money without breaking the law. Without a certain business talent, basically they will not be able to make it big, and they will even be some shell companies.
Therefore, those who can be favored by Lin Hexia are all friends in politics. On the one hand, they can establish some contacts. After all, they may be able to use each other in the future.
On the other hand, it is also about attracting investment. Although the country is not as enthusiastic about foreign investment as in previous generations, the treatment is basically not much different from that of mainland capital. Special fields are not as easy to use as mainland capital.
He feels that this is the biggest difference from his previous life, because this will have a significant impact on the domestic situation, not just on the capital level, but also on the consciousness level, such as worshiping foreign countries.
But this does not mean that various places are not enthusiastic about attracting investment, and Lin Hexia is still a familiar person to them, and in the eyes of many people, he is a high-quality investment capital.
It’s just that the primary purpose of Hong Kong Umbrella Holdings is to develop the economy of Hong Kong and Macao. In addition, it is to concentrate on operating industries in Southeast Asia and other countries. They have no plans to get involved in the mainland for the time being.
In addition to Zhao Yi's instructions, what's more important is that the industry of Hong Kong Umbrella Holdings is not particularly competitive in the mainland, and it may not operate well if it comes in.
For example, Hong Kong housing companies cannot acquire land on a large scale in the mainland. The mainland still has relatively strict controls in this area, and foreign investors cannot get involved in this industry.
Another example is Hong Kong Telecom, which cannot enter the mainland. Not to mention telecommunications operations, even cinema lines, the mainland is not open to foreign operations, and can only be invested by domestic capital.
The rest is the manufacturing industry, but the manufacturing industry of Hong Kong umbrella holding companies is not outstanding, it can even be said to be almost non-existent, so they really don’t know what projects are better to invest in the mainland, so they simply don’t enter the mainland.
Moreover, most of the manufacturing companies in the mainland are located in brother areas. There is no need to force their way in, and they have no advantage over these brother companies.
So these more ambitious people in the circle invited her, and she basically went back to keep the appointments. However, if she wanted to invest, almost all of them were rejected, and she just went to catch up with the past.
Seeing that Zhao Yi was full of complaints about this, Zhou Jinyu next to him saw it clearly and felt that Lin Hexia was very good like this. She couldn't stay at home like him all the time. That would not be so fair to Lin Hexia. (End of chapter)
