Chapter 161 Hao Qiang's shocking decision
Time quickly turned to ten o'clock in the morning and the freshman opening ceremony officially began.
The host was Vice President Xu Shuisheng, who walked to the podium and explained the ceremony rules.
Soon, the scene became quiet.
Vice President Xu briefly explained the process and then began.
Vice President Chen Minbin began his speech, and then asked all students of the medical school to stand up and take the oath according to the purpose written in their admission notice.
"Health and life are at stake." Vice President Chen raised his clenched right hand and made a gesture of taking an oath.
“Health is at stake, life is entrusted to us.” All the students in the medical school also recited this.
One of the core majors at CUHK is medicine, and students make up a large portion of the population.
Before admission, students are required to remember the purpose stated in the admission letter.
"I am determined to do my utmost to eliminate human suffering and promote perfect health."
"Strive for the development of the country's medical and health care, and for the physical and mental health of mankind throughout my life."
The teaching purpose of medical school is just these few words, but it is not easy to achieve it.
After Vice President Chen Minbin finished speaking, it was the turn of another school leader.
Soon, it was the freshman representative's turn.
A girl with both elegance and talent talks about "being an ambitious, courageous, and confident CUHK student."
He spoke with a slight voice, a smile on his face and full of enthusiasm.
After she finished speaking, Vice President Xu stood in front of the podium again and faced the audience: "Students, please welcome Hao Qiang, a sophomore from the School of Information Science and Technology, to speak on behalf of the senior students.
Perhaps many freshmen have already heard of his name, so let me introduce him to you again.
Hao Qiang ranked first in his major in terms of GPA, far exceeding the second place.
He scored full marks in College English Test Band 4, and was the first person in the country to get full marks in this exam.
As a student, Hao Qiang is already very outstanding.
In addition, he is multi-talented and started from scratch. He founded the Future Technology Group, delved into technology and turned it into industry. His Renjian Fireworks Catering Company has a monthly revenue of nearly 10 million yuan, and he is actively involved in charity.
Now, I warmly welcome Hao Qiang to give a speech.”
CUHK wants to establish a student role model, or even a business celebrity, so that anyone who hears his name will think of CUHK.
Hao Qiang has good conditions and is quite suitable.
As soon as Vice Principal Xu finished speaking, the students and parents in the audience gave him warm and prolonged applause.
Students and parents who didn't know Hao Qiang had surprise and astonishment in their eyes.
CUHK has such amazing students!
The elegantly dressed female head of the family felt that it would be great to have such an outstanding student as her son-in-law.
After Vice President Xu finished speaking, he left the podium.
Hao Qiang smiled as if in the spring breeze, looked very natural, and walked towards the podium with natural behavior.
He did not bring a script but spoke impromptu, which was a piece of cake for him.
His tall stature, sunny face, and imposing demeanor greatly surprised the students in front of the stage, who stared intently at this outstanding senior.
Hao Qiang slightly adjusted the height of the microphone and then spoke directly:
"Dear teachers, dear students, and distinguished guests, good morning.
I am Hao Qiang, a sophomore from the School of Information Science and Technology. I am from Heng County, Guangxi Province. I am honored to speak on behalf of the senior students.
Midsummer is almost over and early autumn is here.
The September sun and air are split in two, half warm and half cool."
The teachers, students and parents at the scene were slightly surprised when they heard Hao Qiang's voice.
Wow, with the announcer’s magnetic voice, he can be an announcer.
Moreover, he speaks standard Mandarin and doesn't sound like someone from Guangxi at all.
Hao Qiang has a face value of 18, a good voice, and singing skills. It is a piece of cake for him to sing beautiful tones.
In fact, listening to an overly rigid broadcasting voice too much will make people feel bored. On the contrary, a natural and fresh expression can touch people's hearts more.
The smooth and natural impromptu speech also surprised the audience.
Hao Qiang continued, "Standing on the stage, I would like to share my personal learning and entrepreneurial experience and some of my insights. I hope that the students will gain some benefits and be inspired."
The teachers and students in the audience were a little surprised to see Hao Qiang speaking impromptu.
And when they hear him share his down-to-earth experiences instead of big talk, it's even more appealing.
Just now, they heard the leaders talking too many big principles and felt it was so boring.
Hao Qiang said: "My family is relatively poor. My parents grow sugarcane and their annual income is only a few thousand yuan. It was very difficult for them to send me to school.
After the college entrance examination, I started thinking about how to solve the problem of university tuition and living expenses for four years of university.
My first pot of gold was quite accidental and had a lot to do with luck. After I came to university, I started to establish the Renjian Fireworks Hotpot Restaurant. It was a difficult journey, but fortunately, I succeeded.
Later, I founded Future Technology Group.
I hope to bring a greener, more convenient and more fun future to mankind through technology and innovation.
In order to realize this dream, I need to study hard and absorb knowledge desperately.
It can be said that I am studying to realize my dream.
I also hope that students will have their own dreams and work hard for them.”
"..."
"There's a hot topic online: an admission letter from a prestigious university or 10 million yuan, which would you choose?
Many students also asked me curiously, "You have so much wealth, why do you continue to go to college?"
I would choose the admission letter from a prestigious university without hesitation. Before enrolling, I didn't have 10 million yuan.
If I miss out on going to college, no matter how much wealth I have in the future, I will regret it in my life.
Spiritual satisfaction and changes in ideas and concepts cannot be brought by money, and it is more than just a diploma.
There are too many material desires in society and people are too easily impetuous. Only on campus can I feel love and cleanliness.
Only with love and cleanliness can we go further.
Students, cherish your university time, stay true to your original aspirations, and forge ahead."
This is a topic that many students have asked Hao Qiang.
I never went to college, so I didn't understand why. I thought it was just a diploma. I thought if I had money, I could just pay an expert to teach me.
If you went to college but didn't cherish it, you might not understand it.
The network of contacts and learning experience at a prestigious university will change Hao Qiang's various concepts and ideas, and his approach to dealing with things will also change. This is what Hao Qiang gained from going to university.
Of course, if you go to college but don’t master it well, that’s another matter.
Finally, Hao Qiang concluded, “I have decided to take this opportunity to donate no less than one million yuan to CUHK every academic year, mainly to support poor undergraduate students and encourage them to study hard.
The first payment of one million yuan will arrive within three days.
If one day my business goes bankrupt and I am no longer able to continue donating, then this decision will be terminated.
If the company develops better and better, the donation amount will continue to increase, which is also a company's social responsibility.
Thank you, I have finished my speech."
The donation was not a spur-of-the-moment decision, but one Hao Qiang had thought of a long time ago.
He plans to donate about one percent of the group's profits to charity every year. This will not only help enhance the company's image, help those in real need, and fulfill corporate responsibility, but the donations will also offset part of the tax.
Just now, Vice President Xu praised him for his active participation in charity, which made Hao Qiang feel a little embarrassed.
So far, he hasn't done much.
Hao Qiang's impromptu decision shocked all the audience.
One million yuan is a lot of money in this day and age.
CUHK receives two to three hundred national scholarships every year, each worth 6,000 yuan, with a total award amount of several hundred thousand yuan.
Now, if Hao Qiang makes another donation, CUHK will have one more scholarship to attract more outstanding students to apply to CUHK.
The parents were the most shocked.
Some people are not very clear about Hao Qiang's wealth, but they know what one million yuan means.
Many parents earn less than 10,000 yuan a year.
But the young man on the stage donated one million yuan casually. You can imagine how wealthy he is.
What is even more incredible is that he was able to achieve such success from scratch in just one year.
Hao Qiang's donation is very generous, maybe it can be passed on to his own children.
So they admire Hao Qiang very much.
On the stage, after Hao Qiang finished speaking, he just smiled slightly and prepared to return to his seat.
All the school leaders stood up, and the teachers and students in the audience also stood up and gave Hao Qiang the warmest applause, which lasted for a long time.
Principal Huang Haiyang stepped forward, shook hands with Hao Qiang, and expressed his gratitude: "Thank you, we'll talk more after the meeting!"
After the handshake, the principal walked to the front of the podium and the applause gradually subsided.
"On behalf of the school, I would like to express my sincere gratitude to Hao Qiang."
The principal first thanked Hao Qiang for his generous donation, and then spoke highly of his achievements in academics and entrepreneurship.
"He has successfully started his own business, but he still sticks to his original intention of studying. His first place in his major is proof of that."
Sure enough, the school made the right decision.
Then, the principal began his speech, the main content of which was "Aim to do great things, not become a big official."
This is also a famous quote by Dr. Sun Yat-sen and one of the mottos of CUHK. It is not something President Huang said casually.
If a person is determined to become a high-ranking official from the beginning, he is likely to go down the path of corruption.
Of course, it is not that you cannot become a high-ranking official, but officials must abandon selfish ideas and put serving the people first.
After the principal finished speaking, the freshman ceremony ended.
This opening ceremony allowed the freshmen to have a deeper understanding of the famous person Hao Qiang.
They were not only attracted by his talent and charm, but also moved by his stories and spirit, and admired by his generosity.
Hao Qiang had to stay and formally discuss the general details of the donation with the school.
After more than ten minutes of discussion, the two sides decided to have detailed discussions tomorrow and sign a donation agreement.
