Chapter 780 The East China Flood

During the flood season in May and June this year, 18 provinces, autonomous regions, and municipalities directly under the central government suffered from floods, and five provinces and autonomous regions experienced serious floods.

The heaviest disasters and the greatest losses were in Anhui and Jiangsu provinces that were hit by floods. In some areas such as Wuhan in Hubei, the rainfall in 30 days is close to or exceeds that of a century. According to statistics, more than 48 million people were affected by the disaster in Anhui Province, accounting for nearly 70% of the total population of the province. The various direct economic losses were nearly 7 billion RMB. The disaster-affected population in Jiangsu Province amounted to more than 42 million, accounting for 62% of the total population of the province, 164 people died due to the disaster, the area of ​​crops affected by the disaster was 3 million hectares, and various direct economic losses Nine billion RMB.

Due to the large and extensive losses caused by this disaster, more than two million people were homeless, and the victims suffered from infectious diseases such as intestinal diseases and malaria. A large number of roads, bridges and other facilities urgently needed to be repaired.

To complete the above disaster relief tasks alone, more than 200 million US dollars and various materials and equipment are needed.

Coupled with the huge post-disaster reconstruction.

The funds required will be incalculable!

On July 11, the press conference of "Urgent Appeal for Disaster Relief" was held in Beijing. Chen Hong, Secretary-General of China's "International Decade for Disaster Reduction" Committee and Deputy Minister of Civil Affairs, introduced the disaster situation to Chinese and foreign journalists at the press conference, and represented the Chinese government , Urgently appeal to the relevant agencies of the United Nations, governments of various countries, international organizations, and all parties concerned in the international community to provide humanitarian relief assistance to the disaster-stricken areas in Anhui and Jiangsu provinces of China.

The Great East China Flood in 1991 was a painful memory for many people who lived in Jiangsu and Anhui provinces.

When the flood occurred in the previous life, Xu Cun was filming in Lianyungang. Although he did not face the flood directly, he was trapped in Lianyungang because of the flood and was hungry for a long time. Being close to the disaster area, I saw a lot of family ruins, life and death—for Xu Cun, it was a very bad memory!

Therefore, Xu Cun donated one billion Hong Kong dollars to the disaster area as soon as the "Disaster Relief Urgent Appeal" press conference was held. Help, Xu Cun can't take the initiative to help, no, he is not a true philanthropist who takes the common people as his own responsibility.

In addition to directly donating one billion Hong Kong dollars, Xu Cun also used all his connections to raise 200,000 tons of rice, 100,000 tons of flour, hundreds of millions of medicines for colds, anti-inflammatory and fever, and tents for the mainland. , instant noodles, drinking water, compressed biscuits, shoes, clothes, quilts and other materials - the total value of these materials also exceeds one billion Hong Kong dollars.

In other words, Xu Cun alone donated more than two billion Hong Kong dollars for the East China Flood.

In addition to personal donations, Xu Cun also proposed that Wang Jing, Huang Baiming, and Gao Zhisen be the directors, and Zhou Runfa, Cheng Long, Zhou Xingchi, Li Lianjie, Zhang Manyu, Zhong Chuhong, Lan Jieying, and Wang Zuxian as the leading actors and actresses, to prepare an all-star movie. The movie lineup, all the box office earned will be donated to the East China Flood. At the same time, a large-scale concert will be held at the Happy Valley Racecourse featuring Zhang Guorong, Tam Yonglin, Anita Mui and the Four Heavenly Kings to raise funds for the victims of the East China Flood. charity.

Driven by Xu Cun, on the second day of the Beijing press conference, Hong Kong Governor David Wilson, who wanted to take this opportunity to mend relations with the mainland, approved an aid proposal proposed by the Financial Secretary, agreeing to allocate 100 million Hong Kong dollars to aid the disaster-stricken areas in East China (in the last life, it was 50 million Hong Kong dollars. In this life, under Xu Cun's generous handwriting, 50 million is really not enough, so the British Hong Kong government changed it to 100 million Hong Kong dollars.), and more in In an interview with the media that day, he called on all circles in Hong Kong to actively donate money. At the same time, the British Hong Kong government took the initiative to contact the Hong Kong branch of Xinhua News Agency, the highest office in Hong Kong. Fund Office, to raise donations from all walks of life in Hong Kong.

Red-top businessman Huo Yingdong took the lead in donating 100 million Hong Kong dollars to the disaster relief fundraising office. Li Jiacheng was a little later than him, but he also announced the donation of 100 million Hong Kong dollars the next day, Dong Jianhua donated 20 million Hong Kong dollars, and Lee Shau-kee donated 10 million Hong Kong dollars The Guo brothers donated 40 million Hong Kong dollars, Zheng Yutong donated 20 million Hong Kong dollars, Xu Shixun donated 10 million Hong Kong dollars...

Different from the previous life, this life has also produced two donation forces that are no less than or even faintly surpassed the Xiangjiang business community.

One of these two donations is that at the suggestion of Xu Cun, a group of stars in Xiangjiang, Zhou Runfa, Cheng Long, Zhou Xingchi, Li Lianjie and other popular first-line male stars, as well as popular first-line male singers such as Zhang Guorong and Tan Yonglin donated 20 million each Hong Kong dollars, Hong Jinbao, Liang Jiahui, Xu Guanjie and other quasi-first-line popular stars, and quasi-first-line male stars such as Andy Lau, Zhang Xueyou, Guo Fucheng, Li Ming, etc. each donated 10 million Hong Kong dollars, Yang Ziqiong, Zhang Manyu, Anita Mui, Lin Qingxia and other popular first-line women Celebrities and female singers donate 10 million Hong Kong dollars each, and so on...

(Stars are not willing to donate. Under this proposal, Xu Cun has two additional proposals. First, the donation process will be broadcast live on Phoenix TV, which can help the donating stars to accumulate popularity in the mainland. Second, DreamWorks will use The amount of donations made by the stars this time is used as a reference for the stars’ remuneration. In other words, to some extent, this donation is a ranking for the stars. In addition, the stars themselves are not strong enough to donate more.)

Another force of donations is Xu Cun's women——Xu Cun didn't stop his women from donating just because he donated more than two billion yuan. On the contrary, Xu Cun encouraged them to donate. The least among them also donated 5 million Hong Kong dollars, and the total donation was as high as 700 million Hong Kong dollars, even surpassing the Hong Kong business community and all the stars in Hong Kong.

In just ten days, Xiangjiang raised more than two billion Hong Kong dollars for disaster relief.

This is not counting the more than 2 billion Hong Kong dollars donated by Xu Cun - the more than 2 billion Hong Kong dollars donated by Xu Cun did not go through the disaster relief fundraising office, but was directly donated to the disaster-stricken areas in East China.

It doesn’t count as the box office of the disaster relief movie—different from the crudely produced "Banquet of a Rich Family" in a hurry in the previous life, in this life, Xu Cun issued a death order, and the box office of the disaster relief movie is not used for disaster relief but for the reconstruction of the disaster area. Therefore, Don't be in a hurry to produce it, you must be worthy of the time of the stars and the money of the caring audience!

In the past ten days, the United Nations has received donations from the United States, the United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, Denmark, the Netherlands, Germany, New Zealand and other countries with a total amount of more than 50 million yuan. Taiwan's donations to the disaster-stricken areas in East China have also exceeded three Millions of US dollars, Macau's donation also exceeded 20 million patacas, etc...

These donations are actually not small, but compared with Xiangjiang where Xu exists, they are immediately compared to nothing!
