Hong Kong Movies: You Hongxingzi, what the hell is the charity king?

Chapter 300 300 Charities in Hong Kong: “This guy, is he here to slap us in the face?

Chapter 300 “300” Charities across Hong Kong: “…………” Is this guy here to slap us in the face?
"The charity performance on the 27th?"

"I'm OK!"

After Wuying received the call from Mei Gu, he agreed on the spot without saying a word.

He didn't expect that he had only released a few songs and played only supporting roles in "New World" and "Fight Back to School", but he was remembered by the big sister and even called him personally.

As for charity performances, under the influence of Guan Zu, Wuying is still very willing and active to do good deeds.

……

And on the other side,
In the theater of Universal Golden Harvest Cinemas, the trio of "Fight Back to School" are on a road show.

"Zhou Xingxing, I love you!"

"Uncle Da, I love you!"

"Teacher Wang, I love you!"

When the movie was over and questions from fans were answered, the atmosphere was extremely lively.

This is the 10th cinema they are on tour, and wherever they go, the audiences are extremely enthusiastic.

The three of them finished all the steps and squeezed out of the crowded and crazy theater under the protection of security guards. They got in the car and breathed a sigh of relief.

Ah Zhen: "It's not easy to be a star~~"

Cao Dahua: "But it's very refreshing, isn't it..."

Zhou Xingxing: "hiahiahia~~~"

Ring ring ring~~~
Zhou Xingxing's phone rang and he answered it.

"Hello? What? A charity performance for disaster relief? No problem for me. The 27th, right? I'll definitely attend!"

After I hung up the phone, Cao Dahua and Azhen's phones rang one after another, both inviting me to participate.

"No problem, I'll definitely go!"*2
Ah Zhen and Cao Dahua both agreed readily.

If they dare not go, they are afraid of being scolded by Brother Zu.

Then, the three of them got in the car and continued their roadshow to the next cinema.

……

The following week,
People from all walks of life in Hong Kong have begun to donate.

"Fight Back to School" took only one week to be performed on the road by Stephen Chow and his two accomplices. In just one week, it grossed 1500 million Hong Kong dollars at the box office, shocking everyone.

But the British Hong Kong government arrived late.

The Governor's Office of Hong Kong officially announced the donation amount - 5000 million Hong Kong dollars.

Naturally, this amount of money caused a huge stir in Hong Kong and dominated the headlines of sixty or seventy newspapers across Hong Kong the next day.

It was a sensation.

This week, a batch of medicines that Guan Zu prepared for Tan Meili were donated in the name of Mingxin Hospital and sent to the mainland by plane.

Subsequently,

Various large charitable organizations have begun to call on citizens to donate enthusiastically to charitable foundations, and then they will pool the funds together and donate them to the mainland.

Oxfam Hong Kong called for donations: "Join hands with Oxfam to pass on warmth and bring hope to the disaster-stricken areas in the mainland!"

The World Charity Association launched a fundraising campaign: "We are all family members. Let's send love to the people in the mainland and build a line of defense for the disaster victims!"

"Christian Care": "Christ's love is everywhere..."

"Save the Elderly and Children Association": "Focus on the future, save children..."

"Rehabilitation Association": "Helping with reconstruction, helping the poor and needy..."

Leaflets from various charitable organizations were distributed on the streets of Hong Kong.

For a moment, many citizens in Hong Kong were dazzled.

I don't know which charity to donate to.

"I feel good about the "Aid for the Elderly and Children Association". They have helped my neighbors and are very patient..."

"I believe in Christ, so I will donate to the Christian Care Association..."

Many citizens chose their favorite charities to donate to.

……

new territories,

In a slightly old tenement building.

One of the families consists of Uncle Zhang, Aunt Kang, and a son who just started working. The husband is an old man working in a car repair shop, leaving home early and returning late every day; the wife is a dishwasher.

The living room has an old-fashioned wooden dining table and chairs, and family photos hang on the wall.

The family is not wealthy, but it is well off.

At dinner time, there was a plate of vegetables and a plate of fried meat on the table. My son was at work and had not come back.

Aunt Kang took out a stack of flyers and said, "I saw a lot of charities raising money for the mainland. Should we donate some?"

Uncle Zhang: "Donate a little, not too much, 100, how about that?"

Aunt Kang shook her head: "100 is too little, let's donate 200... Which organization should we donate to?"

The flyers of several organizations were placed on the table.

Uncle Zhang looked around for a while and asked, "Is there any five-star charity foundation?"

Aunt Kang: “I didn’t see it.”

Zhang Bo said: "It is unclear how much of our donations to these charities will reach the mainland... The Five Star Charity Foundation is more trustworthy."

Kwan Cho's support rate covers the whole of Hong Kong. Although it is low, there are still many citizens who trust Kwan Cho.

Aunt Kang: "What should we do then?"

Zhang Bo said: "When we have a break, we can go to Causeway Bay and donate the money. It takes more than an hour anyway, so we can just go shopping..."

Even though the donation is only 200, which is not much, I don't want it to be taken away by those bugs. That would be disgusting.

It is better to choose a trustworthy foundation to donate to.

……

The same scene happened all over Hong Kong.

The last incident involving Boss Li’s Li Foundation caused many citizens to distrust these foundations.

And this feeling of distrust cannot be changed overnight.

They all thought that these charities were not trustworthy, so they might as well vote for Mr. Guan Zuguan’s Five Star Charity Foundation.

……

So, in a flash, four or five days passed.

Charities were all stunned.

The flyers have been distributed four or five days ago, why are there so few people coming to donate?

its not right.

Don’t you love your fellow men?
Are you going to sit idly by and watch your compatriots suffer from disaster?

but,

These doubts and confusion will be shattered when they pass by major cinemas and see that "Fight Back to School" is sold out and tickets are hard to get.

"why?"

"Why?!"

Various charities, I feel like I don’t understand them, I don’t understand them!
……

The president of a charity organization was a little unhappy in the office:
"I wanted to take this opportunity to replenish the foundation's coffers..."

"It just so happens that I need to buy a new car..."

"It's time to change Xiaosan..."

"In the end, you guys don't donate money?"

"Five days have passed, and we have only raised about 5 yuan?"

"This is outrageous!"

"Damn it!"

"A bunch of thugs!"

"Sure enough, the policy of keeping the people ignorant is the best!"

……

Of course, not all charities are so "greedy". There are many, many small, private foundations in Hong Kong that are truly doing charity. However, it is precisely because they are too small, have limited influence and limited visibility that it is more difficult to raise funds.

Because citizens don’t even know about these charities, there is no way they can donate.

……

Lee Foundation,
At the North Corner, Li Er was sitting in a Rolls-Royce with four bodyguards patrolling around, and there was a black car following behind, also with bodyguards.

in the car,

The secretary reported to Li Er: "Although our foundation has distributed flyers and hopes that everyone will donate, the total amount of donations raised in Hong Kong so far is only about 80."

"It's clear that citizens are not very enthusiastic about donating money."

Li Er's face was not very good, because their car had already arrived downstairs of the office building, and not far away was the office building of Five Star Property + Five Star Charity + Five Star Education.

"Are you sure... the enthusiasm for donations is not very high?"

Li Er pointed to the office reception desk downstairs in the Five Star Office Building. There were three or five neighbors lined up in a queue, holding money, wanting to donate to the Five Star Charity Foundation.

Some people leave and some come, and there is always a queue of three or four people.

When the secretary saw this scene, he was stunned into silence.

"…………" Li Er said: "It's not that the citizens are not enthusiastic about donating, but they are not enthusiastic about us."

He has a kind of resentment!
He has been working hard in this North Corner for more than two months!

I think I have been very nice to these citizens and have done a great job in charity!

From the bottom of my heart!

He even tolerated some of the citizens who went too far and tried his best to satisfy them!
And how did these citizens repay him?

Now they are asked to donate money, but they treat him so coldly and don't trust him.

I originally set my heart towards the bright moon, but the bright moon shines on the ditch!
why?
You guys are so nice to Guan Zu? But you treat me with disdain?
I was obviously here first!

Li Er looked at the donation queue with a gloomy face.

Ring ring ring~~~
"Hey, dad... OK, I'll be there now."

……

Evening, 18:30
Central, Cheung Kong Building,
Boss Li hasn't gotten off work yet.

"Guan Zu, why are you still dragging your feet?"

Boss Li stood in front of the French window in his office, overlooking Victoria Harbour, Central, and Tsim Sha Tsui across the street...

The night view is beautiful, but it’s not interesting for Boss Li to watch it every day.

He was thinking about all the charities handing out flyers, but Guan Zu didn't move a muscle.

At this time, Li Er knocked on the door and came in.

"Old Bean."

Li Er came to Boss Li's side and looked at the bustling night scene in front of the floor-to-ceiling window.

His heart was full of ambition. He wanted to become the master one day, standing in this position and overlooking the night scene.

"What's the current situation at the foundation?" asked Boss Li.

Li Er: "I'm not very optimistic. We only received 5 Hong Kong dollars in the past five days, which is too little. However, many neighbors donated to the Five Star Charity Foundation."

Upon hearing this, Boss Li frowned and said, "I remember you reported to me that the charity work in North Point was done well."

Li Er was distressed: "This is exactly what I am wondering about. I have done what Five Star Charity does, and I am no worse than them. The only thing I haven't learned from them is doing good deeds... Why is there such a big gap?"

This was something he couldn't figure out.

Boss Li patted his son on the shoulder and said, "Don't be discouraged. Keep going and see the results."

Li Er nodded solemnly: "Yes, Dad!"

Knock knock knock~~~~
At this time, there was a knock on the office door.

"Come in."

The secretary walked in and said, "Boss, the Guan Zu you asked me to keep an eye on has finally started to take action. The Five Star Group has started handing out flyers on the street."

Upon hearing this, Boss Li immediately perked up.

"Has this Guan Zu finally begun?"

"Let me see the brochure..."

Boss Li was curious about how the mysterious Guan Zu would operate.

The secretary walked forward and handed the flyer to Boss Li.

Colorful flyers with various fonts:
"The flood is ruthless, but people are kind. Donate to the disaster area..."

"Floods can destroy homes, but they cannot destroy the blood ties between us compatriots..."

Two photos are also attached: Floods submerged houses·jpg, and a little girl drifting in a basin·jpg
"Heavy rains and floods have devastated countless homes..."

"Every donation you make is the most direct support and encouragement to our compatriots affected by the disaster..."

The promotional newspaper was not particularly impressive and was not much different from the promotions of other charities.

At last,
Boss Li was stunned.
There were only two lines written at the end:
"Note 1: No matter how small the donation is, it is a token of your appreciation! A few dollars or tens of dollars is fine, but a hundred dollars is a lot. Please donate according to your own situation, and do not overdraw your family's finances like I did last time!"

"Note 2: In principle, donations per person should not exceed HK$500, except for those from wealthy families."

Li Er was shocked!
"He's crazy?!"

“Not only do they discourage donations, but they also limit the amount of donations?”

Other charities, including Li Er, wish that citizens would donate as much as possible so that they can receive more donations.

As a result, Guan Zu also had a limit.

Outrageous!

Here’s another note:
"Note 3: The donation period is 7 days. To avoid crowds, please donate during off-peak hours to avoid long queues."

"Pfft~~~~"

When Li Er saw this, he burst out laughing!
Donate at different times?

Avoid crowds?

What an unfamiliar word!
How confident are you, Guan Zu, to dare to say such a thing!
And what about Boss Li?
He knew Guan Zu very well and felt that he absolutely could not be viewed with common sense.

But this leaflet was too abstract, and he found it a little 'unacceptable'!
Does Guan Zu have so much confidence in the citizens?
"Let's just wait and see..."

“How much he can raise.”

……

The fundraising campaign of the Five Star Charity Company was soon known to all large and small charities across Hong Kong through various channels.

Their first reaction was:

Old man on subway looking at mobile phone·jpg
"What? Restricting donations?"

Shock!

incredible!

"I want to see what confidence he has to impose such restrictions!"

Look again, there is more abstract content below!
"Donate at different times? Avoid crowds?"

"Boom~~"

"Too arrogant!"

"Does he think that just by showing off a flyer, citizens will rush to give him money?"

"If that's the case, won't we become useless?!"

……

At this time, Guanzu Five Star Group covers the following areas: Wan Chai, Wong Tai Sin, Kowloon City, Central and Western District, North Point, Chai Wan, Yau Tsim Mong…

As flyers were distributed, more and more citizens began to mobilize and flocked to the five-star charity foundation locations.

"Brother Zu has finally called for donations!"

"Go, go, go!"

Citizens went to the Five Star Charity Foundation with flyers in hand.

As the saying goes, one should give back what one has received. Guan Zu earnestly does good deeds, improves community hygiene, helps the elderly, pays attention to children, does various good deeds, and solves the difficulties of the neighbors...

It is because of the Zuhe Five Star Group that their lives are getting better and better.

Even though the Five Star Group has only been in Yau Tsim Mong for a little over half a month, residents there can clearly feel that the community's security and other aspects have improved significantly.

All the neighbors saw all this.

I have always seen it in my heart.

More importantly, due to Guan Zu’s support rate, he will not appear ungrateful.

The more Guan Zu invests in the neighbors, the more return he will get from them.

It won't be like Mr. Li Er, who invested more but ended up with more gratitude than resentment.

then,

Guan Zu sent out a leaflet, which involved more than 100 million households in the area under his jurisdiction. After dividing it by half, there were still to households. One person from each household took large-scale spontaneous action.

Respond to Guan Zu's call!

Go donate!
Just an hour,
That is, before 20:00,

Long queues of donations began to form at the regional offices of the Five Star Charity Foundation.

Traffic started to get jammed and paralyzed...

More and more people are coming to donate...

The police force started to get busy, working overtime...

then,

Reporters from TVB and ATV are all here.

then,

It was reported on the evening news at 22:00.

Major charities across Hong Kong saw this scene reported in the news.
