Jiang Zhi and Shen Qingchen's children thrived in the warmth and support of their family, carrying their parents' hopes and the family's future. Their son, Lu Chenyi, displayed exceptional business talent from a young age, possessing an exceptional sensitivity to numbers, a quick mind, and a knack for identifying business opportunities. Their daughter, Lu Wanqing, possessed a kind heart, warming those around her like the spring sun. She was passionate about philanthropy and determined to spread love to every corner of the world.
As time goes by, the family ushered in a new journey, and Lu Chenyi and Lu Wanqing inevitably faced a series of unprecedented challenges.
Lu Chenyi, new to the business world, took on a daunting project. The family business planned to expand overseas and establish a new presence in an unfamiliar and highly competitive country. This country, with its complex business regulations, unique cultural customs, and formidable local competitors, presented a formidable challenge for the fledgling Lu Chenyi.
At the beginning of the project, he led his team in market research, but encountered numerous difficulties. The language barrier became the first obstacle. When communicating with local partners, misunderstandings often led to incorrect information transmission, affecting work efficiency. Moreover, the local business environment is unpredictable, and policies and regulations are subject to change at any time, which repeatedly frustrated the originally carefully formulated plans. On one occasion, they finally reached a cooperation intention with a potential local supplier, but just as the contract was about to be signed, the other party suddenly reneged due to changing policies and concerns about the risks of cooperation, which put Lu Chenyi's team in a passive position.
Faced with these difficulties, Lu Chenyi remained undeterred. He knew retreat was not an option; his family's honor and future depended on him. He diligently studied the local language, hired professional translators and legal advisors, and thoroughly researched every regulatory clause that might impact the project. He personally led his team in revisiting the cooperation plan, addressing suppliers' concerns and proposing a more flexible, risk-sharing model. To gain a deeper understanding of local market needs, he traveled to various cities, interacting with consumers from all walks of life and gathering firsthand information. Finally, his efforts began to pay off. New partners, impressed by his sincerity and professionalism, joined the project, marking a solid first step for the family business to establish itself in an overseas market.
Meanwhile, Lu Wanqing faced significant challenges in her philanthropic work. Committed to improving educational conditions for children in impoverished areas, she launched a large-scale public welfare project to build schools, provide teaching materials, and train teachers in remote mountainous areas. However, problems arose during the project's implementation.
First, fundraising. While her family provided some financial support, it was far from enough to meet the project's enormous needs. Lu Wanqing traveled extensively, attending various charity dinners and public welfare events, appealing for donations from all walks of life. However, her philanthropic journey was not without its challenges. Some were skeptical of her project, concerned about the lack of transparency surrounding the funds. Others, believing that the educational problems in impoverished areas were profound and that a young woman like her alone could not make a difference, were reluctant to donate generously. This was a major setback for Lu Wanqing, but the light in her eyes never dimmed.
To dispel public concerns, she established a rigorous fund management system, regularly disclosing detailed accounts and ensuring the clear whereabouts of every donation. She also personally addressed skeptics, describing the children's eager eyes for knowledge and depicting the beautiful vision of education transforming lives. Her sincerity and dedication gradually touched people, and more and more compassionate individuals offered their help, with donations pouring in like a trickle.
Just as the funding problem was alleviated, the construction project ran into problems again. The mountainous terrain is rugged and transportation is inconvenient, making the transportation of construction materials a major problem. A sudden rainstorm washed away part of the newly repaired mountain roads, causing the project to be seriously delayed. The morale of the construction team was low, and some even suggested giving up. Lu Wanqing was anxious, but still pretended to be calm. She rushed to the scene as soon as possible and discussed solutions with the engineers. She coordinated the forces of all parties, mobilized helicopters and other equipment to urgently transport key materials, and organized local villagers to participate in the road repairs, giving them reasonable remuneration. This not only solved the employment problem, but also made the villagers feel the respect and care of the project for them. With her encouragement, the construction team rekindled their fighting spirit, and the project was able to move forward with difficulty.
Throughout this process, although Lu Chenyi and Lu Wanqing were each busy in their own fields, they always supported and encouraged each other. Whenever Lu Wanqing encountered setbacks in her charity projects and felt down, Lu Chenyi would always take time out of his busy business schedule to call her, share his similar experiences in the business world, and tell her with warm and firm words: "Sister, you can do it! People in our family never give up easily. As long as you persevere, there are no difficulties that cannot be overcome." And when Lu Chenyi faced critical decisions on overseas projects and was under tremendous pressure, Lu Wanqing would thoughtfully prepare a cup of hot tea for him, stay up late with him to analyze the pros and cons, and use her kindness and optimism to dispel the haze for her brother, reminding him: "Brother, no matter what the outcome, everyone sees your efforts for the family. Don't forget the original intention of doing all this."
Over time, Lu Chenyi's overseas projects gradually gained momentum, and the new business locations began to generate profits, bringing substantial revenue to the family business and earning the family a reputation in the international market. Lu Wanqing's charitable projects also began to bear fruit, with brand-new schools springing up in the mountains. The children's laughter echoed across the campuses, their futures filled with hope thanks to knowledge.
