Chapter 37 goodbye sichuan

48 hours after the earthquake, I flew from Beijing to Chengdu, Sichuan. Prior to this, in fact, I had already made a donation in my own way, and then I announced on my blog that the donation to the relevant department in my name was zero.I want to go directly to the disaster area and try my best. The situation here is very dire, and I don't have much time to go online to see everyone's attitudes. It is inconvenient for me to write in too much detail, because I am worried that it will have a negative impact on the early donations.The reason why I don't want to donate to "relevant departments" is that the accounts are not transparent on the one hand, and there is also a very important point, that is, the 10% management fee charged by the Red Cross. I have studied this a long time ago At that time, I knew that the management fee was 5%, but after arriving in Chengdu, a friend of mine told me that it was 15%. Think ten percent.Therefore, when I was transporting materials with a few friends in Chengdu, I kept saying that if there is a donation of 3 billion, there will be more than 300 million in management fees.On the one hand, the management fee is relatively high in the world. On the other hand, it is already affiliated with the government department and receives government salaries. It should not be charged such a high management fee.

Fortunately, under certain pressure, the Red Cross announced that it would not charge any management fees this time.This is a good thing, and I believe that the use of donations this time must be more transparent than before.After I returned to Chengdu after transporting the supplies, I was actually thinking about the Red Cross.Although we have been to the scene of the Red Cross, and everyone there is indeed very hard, but I think after all the disaster and donations are huge, and I cannot live without my petty heart.I observed the transportation of their supplies and some processes at the door several times, and even tried to make some illegal supervision ideas.Now that the media and public opinion have been involved in the supervision, and they have stated that they will accept audits and zero management fees, I think there should be no major problems this time.Everyone is kind, and I believe the staff of the Red Cross are too.I hope they also make great progress in this disaster relief.

During the past few days in Sichuan, I deeply felt that my abilities were limited.Transporting a few truckloads of supplies every day is a drop in the bucket, and urgently needed supplies are becoming increasingly difficult to obtain.Because the affected area is too large this time, and the difficulty of rescue and delivery of materials is too great.There is a sense of despair.In the nearest Juyuan Town Middle School, nearly a thousand people died. This is due to the quality of the school, because there are no nearby buildings that collapsed, and even the buildings that were previously rated as dangerous buildings did not collapse ironically.I believe that these will be settled by Qiuhou.

On the third day, Chengdu's Zhixin Real Estate Company, which has always had a good reputation, was willing to invest 10 million yuan to build three schools in the disaster area that would not be knocked down by the earthquake.Li Chengpeng, Huang Jianxiang and I each donated 200,000 yuan in money and materials to serve as the honorary principals of the three schools.All three of us felt gratified to have made this possible. In addition, I would like to thank the ASUS computer company and Mr. Li Wei, who are willing to donate 100 ASUS EPC portable computers to the school after hearing the news.

I also want to thank Guo Ni, she is very kind, she said she was very sad after learning about this incident, many of her readers are children of this age, and she also donated 500,000 yuan to build a school.I think she is a very kind person, but her annual income is written one book at a time. She may be the most hardworking writer in the country. I asked her to donate a little less.Everyone remember Guo Ni, a female writer. She originally wanted to donate 500,000 yuan, which should be the highest among Chinese writers.As far as I know, this is the vast majority of her savings.But I will definitely persuade her to donate less, and those who are dissatisfied can scold me.

Another very gratifying thing is that my record company, Universal Tianyun, also helped a lot. Many materials in Shanghai were sent and received by them, and they also donated a lot of materials.Thank you to many of my readers or good-hearted people who are not readers. I haven’t had time to make detailed statistics, but you have donated nearly 150 boxes, three to four tons of materials, dozens of boxes of medicines, and thousands of donations to the disaster area. Flashlights, nearly 500 tents, many sleeping bags, more than 50,000 masks, and thousands of other daily necessities. After a few days, when the material and list of donors come out, I will announce it on my blog.This is your credit, not mine.Thank you for your kindness. You have at least saved thousands of people from the wind and rain, provided light and medicine to thousands of rescuers and victims, and provided masks to tens of thousands of people.And this is just a little strength from Shanghai.

I haven't had time to count the materials sent to readers across the country to another warehouse. Yesterday, a friend said that there was an article saying that my behavior was illegal and belonged to private fundraising. I thought, in order to avoid trouble, and my own ability is limited, I declined all the donations that I was asked to hand over.I did not expect to call on everyone to donate some materials, and some people will pursue my legal responsibility for the red cross province. I am willing to accept the investigation of the public security department.Also, can someone kindly donate a mask and a roll of tape to him?

I would also like to thank the Shanghai Volkswagen 333 team. I originally had a driving show for dealers on the 17th, but I was in the mountains on the 16th and might not be able to come back, so the team and the audience in Qingdao understand my absence very well.The team also intends to donate a school to the disaster area. In addition, I would like to thank Ms. Chen Chen for providing a lot of materials. I would also like to thank Mr. He Dong for providing a lot of materials. Two days ago, Liang Chaohui also brought supplies from the fashion group.They intend to donate millions here. Some friends also came to visit various counties, planning to build an orphanage here.

Thank you for the materials donated by readers in my post bar and some websites. Thank you Liao Yan and Li Lei for helping here. Many friends sent text messages to ask me what is missing here, and they will deliver it right away.Thank you very much. On the 16th, the government began to call on volunteers not to drive to the disaster area without permission.Now many idlers were overjoyed, and many well-meaning volunteers were ridiculed.I think they are not on the front line, they don't know the situation here, they don't know the relationship between Beichuan and Wenchuan at all.There is indeed only one road in the hardest-hit areas such as Yingxiu. Volunteers consciously put supplies at the donation station to make way for the rescue. The roads from Chengdu to Shifang, Jiangyou, Dujiangyan, Mianzhu, and Mianyang are all in good condition. , six lanes on the expressway and six lanes on the national highway. Sichuan is a wealthy province with well-developed transportation. Although all the vehicles on the road are volunteers delivering supplies, in fact, the road is still very empty, similar to the Shanghai Outer Ring Road in the middle of the night. .The disaster was so severe that the government and the Red Cross didn't take good care of it at first. At the beginning, many supplies were sent by volunteers from Chengdu.And they can know what is most needed in the disaster area, and send it the next day.

How would idlers know that the disaster area on the 16th was in short supply of sanitary napkins.Of course, many people in Chengdu sent sanitary napkins on the 17th.I am not ashamed to buy it, I am really ashamed to go to women and ask if you want sanitary napkins? Here, I rehabilitate the volunteers.The non-governmental rescue force in Chengdu has taken on the needs of many victims when the government forces are mainly responsible for saving lives and the Red Cross is too busy.Mineral water is even stocked up in many places.These are all private contributions.Because the medicine is relatively light, you can carry more at a time, and it can save people, so when we went to deliver the medicine on foot, we drank all the water and reached the destination. Some victims even asked, do you want water?

Sichuan is indeed a land of abundance, and Sichuanese are naturally optimistic.During the process, many disaster victims even narrated with humor, which I think will help them get out of the disaster faster. And the power of the earthquake is indeed huge. Some victims said to me, you climb on my roof and look at the mountains in front of you.Originally standing here is not able to see the mountain.There were two old women talking on the mountain. Once the earthquake passed, they were separated by a hundred meters. Troops and rescuers are also in more difficult conditions than I imagined, and even the Marine Corps is not as well equipped as imagined.They really regard this place as a battlefield. Many hospitals accept soldiers and rescuers. Because of the high intensity of work, they even start to convulse, and the shouts of military vehicles and police vehicles will add a thank you at the end. This is me in Beijing What you haven't heard in the franchise car shoutouts you've heard at least 10,000 times. I won't talk about the specifics, CCTV will tell.Everyone did their best during the earthquake.In contrast, the few of us are very relaxed, at least most of the time, we can go back to the hotel to sleep at night.However, the work intensity and attitude of the real frontline people seem to have religious beliefs.I am a person who has experienced long-distance rallies and long-term physical strength. I am also a long-distance runner and a professional driver. I can basically guarantee food, drink and sleep these days, but I feel very tired just receiving supplies, so many Volunteers and workers on the front line, you can imagine their hard work. My friend Lao Luo also worked very hard.Lao Luo from Niubo.com and I came to Chengdu together. On our first day in Sichuan, my friend in Shanghai said that a writer was trapped and hoped that I would rescue him. He had a specific location, so we separated from then on.Although I don't know the writer, I just regard him as a person who needs help with specific coordinates.He was rescued before reaching there.Lao Luo and his team have been purchasing various supplies and directly setting up distribution points. Those places are deep in the mountains, and the relief forces of the government departments have not yet arrived there. Many people there and even a family only have one bottle of mineral water a day.Lao Luo and others converted all the donations into directly needed materials and distributed them through the local village chief.But their accounts were blocked by the public security department the day before yesterday, and some of them were directly taken away for interrogation.Although many people will take the opportunity to defraud, according to my understanding, Lao Luo and the others spent all their money on the victims, and the air tickets are all at their own expense, and there is no management fee.I trust them completely, so I also became one of the promoters.Hope their matter is resolved soon.I have also seen a lot of people making sarcastic remarks about them. I think these are blows to good people. If you want to inflict crimes on the enemy, don’t do it to the good people. If the enemy is a good person, don’t add these things.Our social climate is always happy to destroy and transform good people.Hope they fix this trouble sooner, because there are people out there who donate because they trust me.Including those idiots who said that they—or myself, would take kickbacks or take supplies privately, and I would indeed stuff sanitary napkins from supplies privately into their mouths, which were still used.You have so much idle power, why don't you contribute? In addition, I want to continue to say one thing, I still insist that my donation to the relevant departments is 0, this is my personal choice.I am also still very opposed to forced donations and rankings of donations. Many people sneered behind their backs. Some individuals and companies made additional donations out of kindness. superior.They are all moral villains who set their own moral standards.When everyone is busy doing good deeds and has no time, they are idle and pointing fingers.My friend said that he found that these people like to speak repeatedly, change their vests repeatedly, and say the same sarcastic remarks in various places, which is enough to show how idle they are.They are very active physically and mentally. The network monitoring department should register them and send them to the field when there is a disaster in the future. A while ago, it was widely rumored that KFC did not donate money, and McDonald’s did not donate money. I told my friends at the time that, first of all, if they did not donate, they should not be blamed. This is their right. Secondly, KFC may have donated in the name of Yum! .Because these international fast food that I know belong to Yum!Facts have proved that it is true that more than 10 million yuan was donated in the name of Yum Group, and so is McDonald's.However, some beggar gang members actually went to make trouble in front of KFC McDonald's in a certain city, which is adding to the chaos and embarrassment. Once donations go bad, it will make those who do good deeds feel very uncomfortable.For example, in this earthquake, the first batch of people who donated money should be the most active, but in the end, they will all be scolded because of the small amount.Many people will also take the opportunity to spread rumors about people they don't like, which is a blow to well-meaning people. When there is a catastrophe next time, when everyone is surprised to find that the donations of all celebrities and all enterprises are a uniform number, the forced donors will know that they are fools back then. Those who do good deeds must be relieved in their hearts. If they do good deeds, they will be criticized by those who have not done anything. There will be fewer and fewer good people, and those who do things will become more and more cautious. I have been in Chengdu for nearly a week.I want to say that I almost regard Chengdu as my other hometown.People in Sichuan are very optimistic and lovely, and they are also very enthusiastic.Sichuan girls are also very beautiful, but this time I really don't have time to get to know them in depth.Although it is a catastrophe, their optimism is what I like.So they can pick up faster. When the school or the school donated by my friends is completed, I hope readers can volunteer to be teachers.This place is actually not what everyone imagined, so don't call it "Hope Elementary School". Before the earthquake, it was very leisurely here. I hope that the ruins of the middle school in Juyuan Township will not be demolished, and it will be directly changed into the Earthquake Memorial Hall. This is the closest tragic place to Chengdu, and it is directly there from the highway.The exposed steel bars and cement that cut corners, the illegal addition of a layer, and the layers of kickbacks in the building that we don’t know are the epitome of many things.This is the result. It has gradually become safer here, and I believe that the people here will be as optimistic as the people here.Many problems will be settled, and many problems will gradually become unfilial before the bed, but they will always be taken more seriously than other miserable places in the country.Moreover, this is always a huge tragedy. In fact, the situation is much sadder than what CCTV said. The reporter on the spot of CCTV must have known it himself. It is not so warm and touching, but more miserable.I think we can no longer describe the catastrophe of mass death in terms of victory.Victory is for battle, and great victory is for war.In these natural disasters, unless one person is not dead, it cannot be called a victory. Today, I actually saw ×××, ×× and ×× in ××× area and ×× area, and there were reporters beside me. Fortunately, I was wearing a mask.I think it's almost time for more and more celebrities to come here to perform and express condolences, so I should go too. After returning to Shanghai, I will not accept media interviews about this trip, nor will I write any related articles or works.thank you all. Another piece of information is attached, a large number of volunteers are needed now, people with skills from all walks of life in various places can contact your local civil affairs department.thanks.
