However, while ensuring that you do make money, you can also actively participate in various charities for the public welfare. Then, not only will you gain economic benefits, you also acquire clear social benefits. For this reason, I hope that when premised on reasonable and lawful conditions, you will participate in charity with an open and tolerant attitude. During that process, whatever adversities you may face, as long as your motivation is to help others, all seemingly unfavorable conditions will become insignificant.

　　Previously, in my home town, I had seen many children whose families were not able to afford their school fees. When I visited their homes, finding out their living conditions and annual income, I felt sad. In contrast, I found that the waste in many cities is really outrageous. Just to mention one thing, if we could save money wasted on meals alone and use that money to provide schooling for poor children, we would certainly improve and change many lives.

　　For poor children who were not able to go to school, I negotiated with the government many times, so that we could expand the existing school and provide free admission for those poor children. At that time, after learning this news, an entrepreneur immediately made a commitment to help build this school with me. He is also one of the participants here today, but since he does not like to be famous, and only wants to help others quietly, I will not mention his name.

　　In this world, countless people want to be rich. However, what do they do after they become rich

　　 Perhaps they buy a car and property. For their close friends and relatives, the most they can do is provide a little help. As for strangers, even poor university students or abandoned elderly people with long- term illnesses, they show no interest in them and pay no attention at all. The altruist intention to benefit needy strangers does not arise even for a single moment in their minds. Reversing this trend, you came here today to participate in our charity event, and that is an extremely constructive choice to make for the future of all charitable causes.

　　The starting point of charity in contemporary Chinese society is rather late, and there are many areas that are still not mature. In the future, during the time we have available to explore this need, we must ensure that all activities are reasonably and lawfully carried out. Only by doing so can the development of charity have a real and worthy future. We also need monitoring by the public and everyone”s cooperation. It is said that “a long distance tests a horse”s endurance, and time reveals a person”s real character,” so if we always remain committed to our altruistic goal, in the end, we will gain the trust and support of society and help many.

　　All in all, charity is very meaningful, doing charitable acts is the happiest choice, and charity for public welfare is very helpful to all. Finally, I wish today that everyone here has good health for a long time, and all your wishes in life come true. Thank you.
