When Tao Mu and Li Xiaoheng arrived at Song's, Liu Yaomeng, Dean Qi Tao, Qin Miaoru, Gou Rixin and others were all there, and even Da Mao and Xiao Pang came specially to enjoy the feast.
Mr. Song ponders the recipe every day and wishes he could make one dish a hundred or eighty times. The food that was cooked could not be finished, so it was given to these people at a low price. Especially Xiaopang, who is prone to obesity, has become visibly rounder in recent times.
Seeing Tao Mu bringing people back, Da Mao Xiao Pang immediately held a plate of hydrangea scallops that Mr. Song had just made, and asked with a smile: "Brother Mu, have you had dinner? The dishes cooked by the old man are really delicious. Do you want some?"
"Brother Li and I have eaten outside." Tao Mu refused with a smile. Take off your coat and get ready to work.
Old Master Song glanced at Tao Mu and snorted, "Eating out again? Are the dishes outside better than at home?"
Tao Mu smiled and moved closer to the old man and stroked his hair: "Of course it's not as delicious as yours. In my mind, the dishes you cook are the best in the world. No one else."
"Little bastard!" Song Daozhen snorted and gestured to Tao Mu: "There is simmered pheasant shredded bird's nest on the stove. You and Mr. Li can drink some first to drive away the cold."
Tao Mu responded happily and served Li Xiaoheng a bowl of bird's nest. Li Xiaoheng sat aside holding the bird's nest, staring at Tao Mu busying around on the stove with a warm and focused look.
Tao Mu was about to give some chicken soup when he suddenly remembered something and ran to the front to tell Dean Tao: "Dean, Brother Li heard about the situation of our orphanage and wanted to donate one million to set up a charity education fund. To ensure that the children in the orphanage can study without being affected by their livelihood. However, Brother Li doesn't know much about the financial situation of our orphanage. I want to let the auditor check the accounts before donating."
This is a great thing. Dean Tao immediately looked at Li Xiaoheng in surprise: "Boss Li, is this true?"
Li Xiaoheng glanced at Tao Mu calmly, nodded and said, "That's right. If Dean Tao has no objection, I hope to bring the auditor here tomorrow."
"Of course no problem." Dean Tao was a little dizzy after being hit by the one million mentioned by Tao Mu. My mind is full of calculations on how much money one million is equal to——
When a child goes to high school, the annual tuition and book fees are... When going to college, the annual tuition and accommodation fees are... Li Xiaoheng wants to donate one million to the orphanage, which means that at least XX children can finish college. Now Tao Mu is the only college student in their orphanage, because most of the children cannot afford to go to high school, so they go directly to work in society after graduating from junior high school.
If Li Xiaoheng really donates one million to the orphanage, the children in the orphanage can study peacefully in the future and no longer have to rush out to work in order to support themselves. If they can finish high school and get into college safely, they will definitely become more meaningful people to the country and society in the future. They will also have more choices in their own lives.
For the sake of the fate of so many children, let alone checking the accounts, even if Li Xiaoheng wanted to take over the orphanage's accounts, Dean Tao would not refuse.
Dean Tao's heart was pounding and his mind was hot, and he agreed without hesitation. She never thought about whether Li Xiaoheng's proposal would have any adverse effects on her.
But Dean Tao is indeed such a person. She is selfless, so she thinks everyone is upright. She never guarded against the people around her, and she never thought that someone would frame her out of greed.
It is true that as the director of the orphanage, Director Tao did not have a complete understanding of the orphanage's accounts and cash flows - to be more precise, she had no idea about them at all, which was a dereliction of duty on her part. However, Director Tao, who dedicated most of his life to the orphanage, should not be framed because of this dereliction of duty, leading to his disgrace in his later years and even death in an ambulance.
It is said that one should do good deeds without worrying about the future. In his previous life, Dean Tao was a good person but did not receive any reward. The accounting and purchasing couple who embezzled the orphanage's donations and put all the blame on Director Tao were able to buy houses and cars with the unscrupulous developer's money.
In this life, Tao Mu will not let anyone go.
Dean Tao, who was dazed by the one million dollars that fell from the sky, didn't notice anything at all and sat in front of Li Xiaoheng asking him all kinds of questions. Li Xiaoheng patiently told Dean Tao that he and Tao Mu would each contribute 500,000 yuan to set up a charitable education fund to subsidize the children in the orphanage to go to school and develop their specialties. Those who did not want to study would be sent to learn professional skills. If the children in the orphanage were sick and hospitalized, the charity fund would also be responsible for subsidizing the children's medical expenses. Not only that, the families of the orphanage’s employees are also covered by the funding.
"In today's society, there are not many people who can devote themselves to public welfare like Dean Tao. So we should not only do charity, but also encourage other ordinary people who are willing to do charity. Carry forward this spirit of willingness to do charity." Li Xiaoheng said in a gentle voice: "In fact, I think we can cooperate with major universities and let students from other colleges take time out to volunteer in orphanages. For example, use the weekends to help the children in the orphanage with tutoring and teach them talents. Then find the media to publicize these actions."
"As long as more and more people in society pay attention to charity, devote themselves to charity, and are willing to do their part in charity, then our country's public welfare will become easier and easier to do. For those volunteers, this experience can also become a qualification that they can talk about with recruiters when they apply for jobs in the future. This is actually beneficial to both parties. If done well, it can become a virtuous circle."
Of course, the most important thing is that as more and more people pay attention to this matter, those who seek personal gain under the banner of public welfare will be exposed to more people. Li Xiaoheng had talked with Tao Mu and had deeply realized Tao Mu's desire to punish the accounting couple.
Li Xiaoheng admitted that he couldn't help much, but he did a good job in adding bricks and tiles, filling in the gaps, and making indirect suggestions to add insult to injury.
Tao Mu understood tacitly and immediately smiled and said, "Okay. Today is Thursday. How about this? This Saturday, I will bring a group of students from Beijing Film Academy to be volunteers. By the way, let Feixun Entertainment send two reporters to do follow-up reports. Also help Xiaoheng Capital with publicity."
Li Xiaoheng knew that Tao Mu had understood the implication of his words. He curled his lips in a very good mood, thinking that he and Tao Mu were indeed the most tacit partners, and they really had a tacit understanding.
Li Xiaoheng nodded and said, "Okay. With the ability of Xiaoheng Capital's audit department, I think the orphanage's accounts can be checked in one day. If nothing unexpected happens, we will directly announce the establishment of a charitable education fund in front of the reporters. What do you think, Dean Tao?"
Of course, there is no problem with President Tao. She was so happy that she couldn't see her eyes.
Liu Yao and Meng Qi, who had helped Tao Mu investigate the orphanage's accounting, smiled at each other, waiting to see the show.
The next morning was acting class. During the break, Tao Mu mentioned to everyone about volunteering at the orphanage.
"As you all know, I came from an orphanage. Children in orphanages are affected by the environment and generally don't study well. So I want to organize an activity for college student volunteers. Use the weekend rest time to give children extra lessons and teach them talents. Everyone is willing to sign up. Those who are interested can come to me to fill out a form, which is to simply say what you can teach. By the way, I will let Feixun Entertainment follow up on this volunteer activity. Then on Saturday, people from Xiaoheng Capital will also go to the orphanage for an inspection."
Tao Mu unceremoniously brought out Feixun Entertainment and Xiaoheng Capital. Encourage these young students who are eager to achieve success through media publicity and capital intervention. It was like a carrot dangling in front of a donkey, and the eyes of the students who were already interested lit up.
What does it take to be an actor in the entertainment industry?
Appearance, acting skills, popularity, national recognition and background.
The first two are basically innate conditions, or they can be changed through one's own efforts. However, the latter three are not so easy to obtain.
There are so many handsome men and beautiful women in the entertainment industry. Why do you stand out? Based on works? Then why should good works come to you? Is it because of your good acting skills or your popularity?
So the question comes back again.
Now Tao Mu is providing everyone with an opportunity to improve their popularity, image and influence.
The students in the class looked at each other, and then rushed to raise their hands: "I'll go!"
"I can dance. I can teach children to dance."
"I can play the violin. I can teach them to play the violin."
“…”
Only Tao Mu's three roommates sat next to Tao Mu calmly, and were ordered by Tao Mu to help with the registration. When the other students saw this, they looked at Wen Bao and the other two with uncontrollable envy and jealousy. This is the advantage of being close to water. But they can't envy such luck.
As expected of students of the Performance Department of Beijing Film Academy, they are all multi-talented. Tao Mu was particularly satisfied and wrote down the names and talents of the enthusiastic volunteers. After class, I went to the Academic Affairs Office to report to the teacher - although there was actually no need to report such a small matter. But Tao Mu was used to being delicate in his work and life. When it was time to communicate with the school leaders and teachers and seek their support, and to brush up his impression points, he would never be modest and shrink back.
In short, never miss any opportunity to show off in front of the teacher.
Encouraged by Tao Mu, a group of young and lively college students were eager to try. Some people even took out their cell phones and sent messages on the spot, excitedly saying that they would go to the orphanage to volunteer on Saturday.
Soon, seniors from other classes and other grades heard the news. They all ran to Tao Mu to accuse him of discriminating against others by distance - why did he only recruit volunteers from Class 1, Grade 08? These seniors from classes two and three, and even sophomores and juniors, also want to serve as volunteers. Why is there no chance?
Gu Xun, a senior who had previously won the title of National School Prince in the "National School Beauty and School Prince Selection Contest" and attracted a group of young fans, is currently busy with the final drama. After hearing the news, he took the initiative to find Tao Mu and expressed his willingness to do his part.
——Of course, Gu Xun's original intention was no longer to improve his image, gain popularity and gain attention, but simply to repay Tao Mu.
Tao Mu did not refuse, and said with a smile that if there were plans, he was welcome to come to the orphanage as a volunteer.
Because of the forwarding of the news by the students of Beijing Film Academy, netizens who have been paying attention to online gossip also noticed the news at the first time. Guo Yaning, who has been busy working on her album recently, also took time out of her busy schedule to go to Feixun and tag Tao Mu, saying, "I'm so happy to see the place where Tao Mu grew up. I want to be a volunteer too."
Soon after, Wang Boyuan also forwarded Guo Yaning’s Weibo. The participation of two top-tier superstars instantly brought this volunteer activity to the attention of all netizens on the Internet.
The official account of Feixun Entertainment also came out specifically to say that it would film Saturday’s volunteer activities into a video and post it on the barrage website.
Seeing this, the group of Beijing Film Academy students who had grabbed the volunteer opportunities were extremely excited. Everyone is fantasizing in their minds about how they should behave in order to attract the attention of netizens. Some people even stayed up late, standing in front of the mirror with a flashlight in hand to rehearse themselves.
——Not afraid of ghosts.
But I didn’t know that the day of the volunteer activity had arrived. What really attracted the attention of netizens was not any one of them. But two unexpected people.
The so-called social volunteer activities almost became legal programs.
