Chapter 77 What is Charity 2
When Zhang Wei was thinking about where the $2,000 would go, she had a vague idea. She thought of Qin Yuan and Chen Laidie. In places she didn't know, were there many women struggling to survive in this kind of environment?
There was no one she could relate to more than her own experience, but what could she do?
Although twenty years later, with the continuous increase in the country's investment in rural construction and rural education, human trafficking has almost disappeared, and women's rights have been significantly protected and improved, but what about those who are suffering now?
Moreover, she had discovered a phenomenon in her previous life: families of missing children would generally persist in searching for them, but she rarely heard of families of abducted and missing daughters or wives persisting in searching for them for a long time, and many girls were simply abandoned by their original families.
After thinking for a long time, Zhang Wei still couldn't think of a particularly feasible solution. There was nothing he could do about it. It took the country so many years of hard work before the situation saw some improvement.
But she finally decided to do something. Any help she could give would be helpful. Education is the best way for women to grow.
She remembered that there seemed to be a special fund in the country to help out-of-school girls, and she thought that Chen Jiumei could send her to study in town.
Moreover, it is better to strike while the iron is hot now. The chances of the Wilsons agreeing are greater. After all, she is currently in the "making money out of nothing" stage, and she doesn't know how Charles's second-hand website is doing and whether there is any profit for her to donate.
So she tentatively mentioned it to Charles:
“Dad, will our website make any money this year?”
"Yes, I think it can, but it may have to wait until next year. Users are still in the trial stage, and it will probably be on track next year."
"I thought your book was sold and I forgot about it!" Charles was quite satisfied with Zhang Wei's awareness as a shareholder.
Then he asked, "Are you short of money? Or do you have any new ideas?"
To be honest, Zhang Wei was still a little hesitant at this time. After all, what she planned to do was in China. However, she thought that since the Wilsons could go to China to adopt her, it meant that their ideas were not so narrow.
So she organized her words and said slowly:
"I wonder if I could get a share of the profits from the website, would you allow me to manage it?"
"Of course, this is what you deserve." Charles said without hesitation.
"What if I said I wanted to use it for charity?"
After hearing this, Charles opened his mouth, as if he didn't know how to answer for a moment, and then looked at Emma.
Emma thought about it for a moment, then looked at Zhang Wei gently:
"Well, Vera, we're glad you're so kind. Although there are many places in the world that need everyone's help, this isn't just your responsibility."
"You are still a child, Vera," Emma said, and she seemed almost moved to tears.
Zhang Wei felt a little sorry, thinking that Emma and the others might have misunderstood her.
I thought she was planning to donate all her belongings. Although it seems to be true now, she is not that great yet. She just doesn't feel bad about spending the money before she gets it.
Once the arrow is shot, there is no turning back. Having said that, Zhang Wei also planned to tell them her thoughts directly, of course, it still needed some polishing:
"Well, since I received the award, I've learned more about charities in various countries. I think the economy here is already very developed, so there may not be that many people in need of help. However, in China, some girls don't have the opportunity to study because of poverty. I wonder if I can help them?"
Emma's focus was different: "Oh, baby, do you miss China? You can tell us and we can go back during the holidays."
Charles also nodded: "That's a good idea, Vera, you should have reminded us."
Now the Wilson family's relatives are scattered in Country A and the UK. How could Zhang Wei let everyone give up the time for family reunion and accompany her back to China?
And she still hopes to do as much as possible of what she can do by herself.
So Zhang Wei said, "Thank you, Mom and Dad. I will go there when I have the chance. I will be very happy to be with you all."
Charles did not insist and mentioned the charitable donation: "I think your idea is very good. I will allocate some money to have someone run it in China. Don't worry."
Zhang Wei shook her head. She didn't want Charles to pay. Although the wool comes from the sheep, the nature of the money she earned was different from the money she asked him for.
"No, if you agree, I think I can use the profits from the new website to do this. Dad, this is what I want to do, and you should let me do it myself."
And if you earn less, you should spend less. No one's money comes from the wind.
Finally, Charles agreed. However, considering that she had not received any dividends yet, Charles said that he would donate $100,000 in her name to help out-of-school girls in China. However, this amount of money would be deducted from Zhang Wei's future dividends.
In other words, Zhang Wei is currently in debt of 100,000 US dollars, but since he donated so much, it seems that Charles is very confident in the website, otherwise it would take a long time for Zhang Wei to pay back the small amount of shares.
After doing this, Zhang Wei felt much more at ease.
To be honest, although her father and mother didn't love her, she had never been to a backward place like Chenjia Village that seemed isolated from the world.
Although this money is a drop in the bucket, it should be able to help a few girls.
In fact, Country A is not without slums. I have heard that there are several poor and chaotic areas in New York City alone.
However, the government has almost left those areas alone because most of the slums are inhabited by illegal immigrants of color, such as blacks, Mexicans, and Asians.
Just like the environmental protection organizations in schools shout "protect the environment" but turn a blind eye to the slums, they are not among those who are valued and need help.
Zhang Wei thought that it was probably because they could not provide votes for those in power, or their compassion was also divided into different levels.
Zhang Wei neither intends to regard herself as a true citizen of Country A, nor does she intend to form a group with ethnic minorities like Salma, so she has always adopted a cold-eyed and indifferent attitude towards the society of Country A.
This is actually a bit similar to what Charles and others think. Although their nationality is Country A, they are psychologically closer to the UK.
Perhaps it was because of this similar situation that Zhang Wei was able to accept this family more easily. Of course, the Wilsons were really excellent parents, and perhaps it was God's way of making up for Zhang Wei's regrets in these two lives.
Although Zhang Wei successfully completed what she wanted to do, the subsequent impact of their charitable donations continues.
Paris was very surprised to tell them that he had gotten a very rare opportunity.
