Reborn in 1984: Starting with the Development of Chinese Character Cards, Chapter 356: Ant Forest and Xu Li – There are many, many people in China with similar situations.
Unfortunately, the difficulty and expense of accessing medical care are now widespread phenomena in society.
There are many reasons, which I will not list one by one.
The emergence of Alipay Charity has brought a glimmer of hope to many people and saved countless precious lives.
At this moment, countless people across the country are deeply grateful to Zhao Ye.
Zhao Ye was quite surprised. In less than a month, more than 100,000 people across the country had applied for medical assistance. Even after excluding some scammers, there were still quite a few people left.
Zhao Ye recalled his past hospital visits, where he was constantly subjected to numerous tests—X-rays, ultrasounds, CT scans, MRIs, and so on—all very expensive. It seemed as if the doctors couldn't diagnose without these tests. Of course, this was understandable, given the different approaches of Western and Traditional Chinese Medicine.
Since most of the hospital's diagnostic equipment is purchased from foreign companies, it's understandable that the diagnostic fees are high.
Fortunately, the Zeiss Group under Zhao Ye's name is making every effort to overcome the challenges of medical equipment, and it is expected to replace expensive foreign medical equipment in the future, thereby reducing patients' medical expenses.
In addition, Wujiang Pharmaceutical Company is also developing various drugs, including biological drugs, chemical drugs, and modern traditional Chinese medicine, and is committed to providing patients with effective and affordable drugs.
To be honest, if it weren't for Wujiang Pharmaceutical Company, it would be even more difficult for ordinary Chinese people to see a doctor.
Over the years, Wujiang Pharmaceutical has invested a total of RMB 215 billion in drug research and development, developed a total of 514 new drugs, and generated RMB 782.4 billion in revenue.
If Zhao Ye were a little more ruthless, Wujiang Pharmaceutical Company's revenue could increase by at least 30%.
It's important to know that Wujiang Group has a vast online and offline sales channel for pharmaceuticals, making its drug sales capabilities incredibly strong.
Zhao Ye looked into the field of charitable education and discovered that many students in impoverished mountainous areas of China still face difficulties accessing education.
It's only 2006 now. Although China's GDP has far surpassed that of the previous era, the gap between the rich and the poor in China is still enormous.
Zhao Ye's personal wealth can only be described as "rich enough to rival a country".
Some say that a South Korean's life, from birth to death, is inseparable from Samsung. The same is largely true in China, where people are also inseparable from the Samsung Group.
If it weren't for Zhao Ye's wife's powerful family background and immense influence in both military and political circles, she would have already been the one to reap the rewards. Of course, the unparalleled influence of the Wujiang Group also propelled the rapid expansion of his wife's family, creating a mutually reinforcing relationship.
Today, many areas in China are still struggling to escape poverty. As one of China's most successful and wealthiest entrepreneurs, Zhao Ye has an undeniable responsibility to help these areas achieve prosperity. Of course, for Zhao Ye, it's also a mutually beneficial arrangement; while helping rural development, he is also creating value and leveraging internet platforms to achieve a win-win situation.
However, Rome wasn't built in a day.
It takes time for impoverished mountainous areas to develop, but the golden period for children's education should not be wasted, and this is the significance of Alipay's charitable education cause.
As lunchtime approached, Zhao Ye focused on learning about Alipay's "Humanities and Nature" section, which has many subcategories, with environmental protection being the most prominent.
When talking about Alipay's environmental protection efforts, one cannot help but mention Alipay's "Ant Forest" from earlier times.
Ant Forest is a public welfare project aimed at promoting low-carbon emission reduction. Each person's low-carbon behavior can be counted as "green energy" in Ant Forest. When "green energy" accumulates to a certain level, you can use your mobile phone to apply to plant a real tree in an area where the ecology urgently needs restoration, or "adopt" protection rights in an area where biodiversity urgently needs protection.
In the five years since its launch, Ant Forest has driven more than 613 million people to participate in low-carbon living, generating more than 20 million tons of "green energy". Moreover, the United Nations Environment Programme announced that the Ant Forest project has won the "Inspiration and Action Award" of the "Champions of the Earth" award, the highest environmental honor of the United Nations.
Tell me, isn't this environmental protection project amazing?
Without a doubt, Zhao Ye, who is adept at "borrowing," directly transplanted Ant Forest to the Alipay app in this life.
After a period of development, "Ant Forest" gradually became popular.
The most attractive and biggest selling point of "Ant Forest" is that Alipay will plant a real tree for users.
Currently, this project hasn't really taken off yet, mainly because people haven't seen Alipay's tree-planting initiative in the desert.
No worries, Alipay will be taking action soon.
Zhao Ye stole some green energy from his friend and then logged out of the app.
He then picked up the phone and video-called Alipay CEO Hu Gangyi.
After the video call was successfully completed, Zhao Ye asked, "President Hu, how is the desert land procurement plan progressing?"
Desert regions have strong sunlight, which can be used not only for planting trees but also for developing the photovoltaic industry.
Zhao Ye had already set up Wujiang Energy Company to develop the photovoltaic industry before the 20th century, and now Wujiang Energy Company has become the world's largest photovoltaic manufacturer.
Desert plants are generally short, so Zhao Ye plans to plant desert plants, such as Haloxylon ammodendron, around the photovoltaic power station to combat sandstorms. In his previous life, research institutions had proposed a method of "one panel, three uses" through long-term research and practice: generating electricity under the photovoltaic panels, planting vegetation between the panels, and raising cattle and sheep under the panels. This innovative method realizes multiple uses for a single piece of land and is the core of photovoltaic desertification control.
